Chapter 626: Peak Showdown!

Tang Li Xue actually did not really put much hope in the treasures stored inside that hidden treasure room because usually most of the cultivators would put their most precious and important treasures in their spatial ring.

Well, the safest place to store your own treasures should be something you always carry around with you everywhere, right? at least, the current Tang Li Xue thought so...

But Tang Li Xue was actually quite wrong about this since she still lacked a lot of knowledge about common sense in this Cultivation World.

Something like spatial rings and space pouches were very easy to be stolen or snatched by the enemies in the middle of the fierce battle.

If that really happened and they really put all of their treasures in their spatial rings or space pouches, did that mean those cultivators become completely penniless?!

That was the reason why many cultivators actually did not put all of their treasures in their spatial rings or space pouches but instead put around half of them in some hidden place like this hidden treasure room or their closed cultivation cave, cultivators with higher cultivation might even create secret realms to store their treasures.

However, it was not the right time for Tang Li Xue to worry about that because the guard army along with more than a dozen guard captains had already come to this main residence, and they had already started to inspect every room one by one!

Tang Li Xue's sharp sense of hearing enhanced by her [Extrasensory Perception] could faintly hear that they were getting closer and closer here.

It might not take long for them to check this luxurious bedroom located at the center of the main residence and find the currently opened hidden passage here!

Tang Li Xue checked the [Mapping Sense] tracker she put on the amber-colored fox and found that the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult's people had also almost gotten out of the hidden passage!

Tang Li Xue hastily brought Little Loki and Yaya to hide in the room beside the luxurious bedroom where the hidden passage was located.

Just like Tang Li Xue had predicted, when the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult's people got out of the hidden passage, they actually met head-on with many guards and their more than a dozen guard captains!

The expression of the guard captains instantly distorted in anger and hatred when they saw the Eternal Joyous Cult's people in black clothes, then shouted angrily at them: "You brazen thieves from Eternal Joyous Cult~! How dare you make a great mess by sneaking into City Lord's Mansion and stealing our City Lord's belongings~!"

The expression of the amber-colored fox and the Eternal Joyous Cult's people immediately turned solemn and cold. They did not reply to the guard captain's insults and launched attacks toward them all of a sudden!

BBOOOOOOOMMM~!

The fierce head-on clash between Core Formations Stage cultivators like Eternal Joyous Cult's people and more than a dozen guard captains was not something the ordinary guards could handle and many of them got killed by the violent shockwave from their attacks!

"Hahaha, is this the strength of City Lord's guards?! So weak~!" One of the Eternal Joyous Cult's people mocked while sneering with a disdainful expression.

The expression of guard captains instantly became cold, and they hastily took out their spirit treasures from their spatial rings!

It was completely different from when they were facing Tang Li Xue previously, they only used [Demon Sealing Ropes] to try to catch her at that time, but this time, they took out flying swords at Spirit Treasure level!

Not only that, those guard captains did not hesitate to summon out their martial souls to merge with their spirit treasure flying swords!

[Two-headed Jade Snake], [Steelback Giant Bear], [Golden Winged Eagle], [Sword Grass], [Flame Spitting Mushroom], and so on.

All kinds of martial souls were summoned out by them all at once!

"First Tian Xuan Sword Formation, [Sealing Life Formation]~!" One of the guard captains shouted, and more than a dozen spirit treasure flying swords instantly arranged neatly in a mysterious pattern formation.

It was clear that these guard captains planned to slaughter all of the Eternal Joyous Cult's people without any mercy!

Eternal Joyous Cult's people felt enormous pressure from the guard captains all of a sudden, and they also summoned out their respective martial souls and merged them with their weapons!

More than a dozen spirit treasure flying swords flashed in unison toward the Eternal Joyous Cult's people!

CLANG~! CLANG~! CLANG~! PUFF~! PUFF~!

Most of the Eternal Joyous Cult's people barely managed to block the attack from the spirit treasure flying swords, but some of them still got injured.

But the guard captains did not plan to stop and controlled their spirit treasure flying swords to attack the Eternal Joyous Cult's people again and again!

Meanwhile, Tang Li Xue, Yaya, and Little Loki secretly watched their battle from the next room right beside them in excitement by making holes in the wall.

"Woah~! Those flying swords are so fast and sharp~! If they used those flying swords on us before, we might have already been filled with holes right now~!" Tang Li Xue commented.

"Nya Mew Nyaowww~! (Yes, those flying swords look really delicious~!)" Little Loki added.

"Yaya ya yayaya yaaa~! (Yes, but my Compressed Wind Swords are surely faster and sharper than them~!)" Yaya told her opinion.

Eternal Joyous Cult's leader saw that their situation was getting worse as his own subordinates got pressured by those guard captains and got injured more and more, so he decided to unleash his [Desolation Fist] toward the guard captains!

[First Desolation Fist - Prairie Fire]~!

ndαsvεl m

As the Eternal Joyous Cult's leader threw a punch toward more than a dozen guard captains, their spirit treasure flying swords got repelled and blown away by the destructive spiritual Qi shot out by the Eternal Joyous Cult leader's fist!

All of the dozen guard captains took a few steps back, and fresh blood flowed out from their noses and mouths.

They wiped the fresh blood on their face with their sleeve as their expression became even more fiercer.

"Second Tian Xuan Sword Formation, [Earth Breaking Formation]~!" One of the guard captains shouted out loud.

The movement of spirit treasure flying swords changed completely as they flew encircling the guard captains and Eternal Joyous Cult's people forming an enormous Yin and Yang pattern!

Even the expression of Eternal Joyous Cult's leader instantly changed to panic when he faintly sensed the profound hidden killing intent in this sword formation!

The Eternal Joyous Cult's leader quickly unleashed an even more powerful fist attack to break the sword formation!

[Second Desolation Fist - Eternal Drought]~!

The extremely violent spiritual Qi shot out from the Eternal Joyous Cult's leader's fist!

BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM~!

But surprisingly, the Eternal Joyous Cult leader's fist attack actually failed to break the sword formation this time!

On the contrary, the extremely violent spiritual Qi rebounded back and injured himself and his own subordinates!

Even the amber-colored fox and the three detained foxes under its protection were not spared. All of them also got injured by the rebounded violent spiritual Qi.

Tang Li Xue's expression also changed from relaxed to worried when she saw the three detained foxes get injured.

"It would be really bad if those foxes accidentally died in their battle... It seems I must make some changes to my plan~!" Tang Li Xue murmured while thinking deeply.

Currently, Tang Li Xue planned to wait for both sides to fight to the death, and finally, she only needed to make a finishing touch to take both those detained foxes and the City Lord's treasures from them later.

However, those detained foxes clearly could not hold on anymore!

Tang Li Xue had already saved two foxes, while the amber-colored fox had saved three foxes.

If all of these detained foxes died here, the amber-colored fox would almost certainly be the winner of this treasure game in the end!

Tang Li Xue sighed in resignation as she muttered to Yaya and Little Loki: "Let's go, Yaya, Little Loki~! We have to take those detained foxes away from there quickly before they die~!"

Since she needed extreme speed to save those detained foxes as soon as possible from that deadly battlefield, Tang Li Xue did not hesitate to change back from her human form to her fox form.

She also decided to enter [Divine Possession] mode with Yaya at this time.

Yaya also turned into a flash of green light and merged into Tang Li Xue's body.

*Ding!

[You have entered Divine Possession with Yaya!]

Tang Li Xue used Yaya's buff on herself to increase her speed even further.

*Ding!

[Wind Guardian Blessing] activated! (Increase overall speed by 50% and add auto-dodge effect. Duration: 10 seconds.)

Using both [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] and [Breezing Step] at once, Tang Li Xue's speed was so fast that her silver furry figure turned into a silver flash as she sped off toward the luxurious room right beside the room she located!

Right at this time, the battle situation had already shifted completely toward the City Lord's guard captains.

The fierce sword formation of the guard captains not only managed to injure the Eternal Joyous Sect's leader, but they also managed to slay some of his subordinates!

All of the guard captains sneered at the Eternal Joyous Sect's people with disdain and mockery.

The expression of Eternal Joyous Sect's leader turned ugly in extreme rage and hatred as he shouted in anger: "Don't get too cocky, you damn bast*rds~! Do you think you already win?!"

Eternal Joyous Sect's leader threw both of his fists toward the guard captains with all of his strength!

[Third Desolation Fist - River and Mountain Disintegration]~!

The spiritual Qi shot out from both of the Eternal Joyous Cult leader's fists distorting the surrounding scenery in an instant!

Tang Li Xue and Little Loki had already swiftly entered the luxurious room to take away those detained foxes from this dangerous battlefield, but Tang Li Xue's [Extrasensory Perception] instantly sensed an extreme danger spreading in this entire luxurious room!
