Even Mo Xuan, the hall master of the Soul-Devouring Hall and a true master of the Condensing Meridian Realm, showed a visibly horrified expression, which piqued Ye Wushuang’s curiosity.
In the Flowing Moon City, the Condensing Meridian Realm was considered the pinnacle of combat strength. What could possibly frighten even him?
Mo Xuan strode out of the room and shouted in anger, “Wasn’t Xiao Yuan sealed by the Five-Element Yuan-Sealing Formation? How could he have escaped?”
Ye Wushuang also stepped out of the room and saw the entire life-or-death arena in chaos.
In the center of the arena stood a young man, seemingly eighteen or nineteen years old, with a height of nearly six feet three inches. His long hair was disheveled, and he was bare-chested, revealing a body covered in scars. At that moment, he was holding a Soul-Devouring Hall guard in his hands, roaring furiously, “I’ll kill you all, kill you all…”
The man’s expression was grotesque, with blood and flesh fragments around his mouth, resembling a wild man drinking blood and eating raw flesh, utterly terrifying.
Without a word, Mo Xuan immediately began to organize numerous guards to intercept him, while the rest of the people had already fled in terror.
Looking closely, Ye Wushuang noticed that the man’s body was covered in protruding blood vessels, with a faint black glow emanating from them. His steps, which had been advancing, suddenly halted.
“Heaven-Shaking Magic Ape bloodline…” Ye Wushuang murmured, “Strange, indeed…”
Mo Xiao, standing beside Ye Wushuang, did not rush out recklessly.
“Who is this man?” Ye Wushuang asked.
“Just a murderer. He wandered into our territory in the Flowing Moon City. Our Soul-Devouring Hall spent a great deal to capture him, planning to send him to the Imperial Capital to make a profit. When he’s sane, he’s at the eighth tier of the Body-Refining Realm, but once he goes mad, he’s as strong as a first-tier Condensing Meridian Realm expert. He’s extremely ruthless when killing…” Mo Xiao’s face turned pale as she spoke.
Such a person was truly terrifying.
At that moment, Mo Xuan led more than a dozen guards from the Soul-Devouring Hall, all at the eighth or ninth tier of the Body-Refining Realm, surrounding the young man named Xiao Yuan.
“Do not approach him!” Mo Xuan shouted.
No one knew better than Mo Xuan how terrifying Xiao Yuan could be when he went berserk.
As soon as Mo Xuan spoke, he charged forward, his hands gathering spiritual energy. In an instant, he was in front of Xiao Yuan, and he slapped out with both palms.
Boom…
The tremendous force caused Xiao Yuan’s chest to cave in, but this only further ignited his madness.
“Ah…”
Xiao Yuan roared in fury. With a tearing sound, the guard he was holding was ripped in half.
“I’ll kill you all, kill you all…”
Xiao Yuan roared, clenching his fists and smashing them towards Mo Xuan.
Mo Xuan had no time to dodge and had to take the hit directly.
Thud…
A muffled explosion sounded as the two exchanged a punch. Mo Xuan felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer all over his body. His face turned pale, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth as he staggered back several steps.
“What are we going to do?” Mo Xiao’s face turned ugly as she spoke. “Uncle Xuan is already at the first tier of the Condensing Meridian Realm, the strongest in our Soul-Devouring Hall, and he can’t stop this mad Xiao Yuan. The Soul-Devouring Hall might not be able to hold on…”
Losing the Soul-Devouring Hall was a minor issue. If Xiao Yuan broke out and wreaked havoc in the Flowing Moon City, all the major families in the city would hold the Soul-Devouring Hall accountable.
Ye Wushuang looked at them and said, “Don’t you have formations inside and outside your Soul-Devouring Hall?”
“This Xiao Yuan was originally trapped by the Yuan-Sealing Five-Element Formation inside the Soul-Devouring Hall. Who knows how he suddenly broke free…”
Ye Wushuang pondered for a moment, then said, “Take me to the formation’s control center!”
Formations are created by martial artists who gather their spiritual energy to condense spiritual patterns, then inscribe these patterns and combine them with the power of heaven and earth to create an extremely powerful burst of energy. There are many types of formations, including killing formations, illusion formations, trapping formations, and defensive formations.
In the Flowing Moon City, the mansions of these major families and powers all have formations. Formations are divided into ordinary formations and spiritual formations.
Ordinary formations can suppress and kill those at the Body-Refining Realm.
Spiritual formations, on the other hand, pose a threat to those above the Body-Refining Realm, such as those in the Condensing Meridian Realm, the Spirit Mansion Realm, and the Heavenly Gang Realm.
Generally, a first-tier spiritual formation can exert significant pressure on those in the Condensing Meridian Realm.
The formation control center of the Soul-Devouring Hall was naturally a forbidden area, off-limits to ordinary people. However, with the formation clearly malfunctioning, Mo Xiao didn’t have time to think and looked at Ye Wushuang, asking, “Do you understand formations?”
