"Damn it!"
If this were an ordinary situation, he wouldn’t be afraid in the slightest, letting these two little mice hack at him wouldn’t mean a thing, but here, it wasn’t these two mice doing the hacking, it was the sword qi vortex left behind by the supreme master of the Immortal Tomb.
He looked at the sword qi vortex in sheer terror. Several streaks were already slashing over.
The expert finally understood that this was the trap Adam had been setting up the entire time, nut why hadn’t he sensed it at all?
"When did you set up this formation?!" His eyes were filled with terror and disbelief.
Several bloody blossoms instantly bloomed across his body.
A massive, tragic scream rang out. Both of the expert’s arms were sliced clean off, there was an even larger gash cleanly cutting into his neck.
Coupled with his previous chest wound, the expert was now riddled with horrific injuries, blood rapidly draining from his body.
He let out an angry, humiliated bellow, as a mighty expert at the Eighth Heaven of the Deity Realm, he was actually bound by a mere formation and reduced to such a wretched state by two rats, this was the greatest insult imaginable.
"Just you wait! I will remember you."
However, having suffered such severe injuries and lost so much vitality, he couldn’t afford to stay any longer.
If he stayed, it was highly likely he would never leave, he had already expended a vast amount of vitality just to infiltrate this place.
Struggling wildly, the expert used his final reserves to violently tear apart the Confinement Formation’s bindings, he then transformed into a plume of black smoke and swiftly vanished.
Adam and Cecilia watched the dissipating smoke and took a deep, heavy breath, they knew their lucky escape was entirely thanks to the Immortal-Trapping Sword and the Confinement Formation prepared earlier.
Especially that initial strike from the Immortal-Trapping Sword, it had directly inflicted a severe wound, giving them the crucial window to set up the formation, by successfully binding him, they gave the sword qi vortex the perfect opportunity to heavily cripple the opponent.
In the end, though, Adam felt the expert should still have had enough strength for one last fight, he had been fully prepared to trade heavy injuries for time, yet the other party had fled, why?
Adam possessed too little intelligence to deduce the opponent’s true reasoning, but that wasn’t important right now, what truly mattered was that he and Cecilia had survived.
He looked at the Immortal-Trapping Sword in the vortex, feeling deeply grateful, it had genuinely done him a massive favor.
"I originally wanted to wait until I was stronger before coming back for you, but now that this accident has happened and you’ve helped me this much, it would be far too ungrateful to leave you behind!"
Adam smiled faintly, after confirming there was no lingering demonic aura in the chaotic space, he awakened the Grand Flame Dao Talisman.
A passage opened directly in the center of the sword qi vortex, and Adam led Cecilia inside.
"Cecilia, wait for me a bit, I need to set up a transfer formation."
Adam pulled out a large pile of materials and placed them on the ground, he needed to devise a new formation and craft an artifact to safely contain the Immortal-Trapping Sword, ensuring his mind wouldn’t be corrupted by its overwhelming intent of slaughter.
"Alright, Young Master, I’ll stand guard!" Cecilia nodded, it was perfect timing, as she badly needed to sit down and heal her own injuries.
...
Northern Desert, Demon Race Territory.
Within a bottomless abyss, three Demon Race experts exuding formidable auras sat cross-legged at the three corners of a large formation.
The formation continuously pulsed, radiating a sky-filling crimson light, right in the center sat another powerful figure.
Suddenly, the three experts at the corners each violently spat out a mouthful of scarlet blood.
Immediately following that, the powerful Demon in the center also spat out a huge mouthful of blood, then both of his arms detached and fell off, half of his neck snapped, and even more terrifyingly, a massive wound tore open his chest, nearly splitting his entire torso in two.
His previously closed eyes snapped open with a jolt, he instantly began circulating his cultivation technique, scarlet blood qi billowed out, enveloping his entire body.
For an ordinary person, those wounds would have been instantly fatal, yet on this Demon’s body, they actually began to heal, however, wisps of sharp sword intent lingered within the wounds, stubbornly hindering recovery.
The expert cursed, with a casual wave of his massive hand, he sucked the three Demons at the corners directly toward him, he opened his gaping, bloody maw and, without uttering a single word, swallowed all three whole.
After absorbing them, the wounds healed at a visibly accelerated rate, eventually, they all closed completely, leaving behind only shallow scars.
"This formation still has glaring flaws, not only is the projected strength vastly weakened, but all sustained injuries are entirely transferred back, moreover, the demand on blood qi is simply too high."
"The blood qi of three Ninth Heaven Deity Realm Demons was consumed until only this meager amount remained." He muttered, feeling dissatisfied with the blood qi he had just devoured.
"And those two little mice... where exactly did they enter the Immortal Tomb from, and how did they obtain the Grand Flame Dao Talisman?" Harboring these deep doubts, the expert slowly stood up, his burly stature made him look like a miniature mountain.
He stepped out of the formation’s boundaries, after walking out of the lingering crimson light, a sharp gleam flashed through his scarlet eyes, looming before him was a gigantic blood-colored dome, sealed beneath it was a colossal tomb.
It blotted out the sky and the sun, possessing an aura as if it had remained unchanged since the dawn of ancient times, countless Demon Race experts flew across its surface, seemingly researching and trying to decipher this massive tomb, however, a faint white halo coated the tomb’s surface, acting as an impenetrable barrier blocking them out.
