Chapter 413 - 413 Making their move
A look of shock as well as fear appeared on the black-robed old man's face when he saw the Death Eater that was emerging from the black hole, almost as if his biggest fear had suddenly become reality.
No, it wasn't just the black-robed old man. The old woman in red armor as well as the snake-eyed man also had similar expressions on their faces, as they involuntarily took a few steps back, opening the distance between themselves and the enormous beast.
Even the disciples that were staring at this scene 5 miles away from the city, including the red-robed young man, were staring at this scene dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.
The aura coming from the Death Eater was actually at the middle of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul stage... the same as Liu Mei's!
''How is this possible? Even if that pill augmented her own strength temporarily, the power of her summoned creatures shouldn't change! After all, this is just a temporary increase in strength.
...Don't tell me that their strength isn't actually set, and instead it rises in accordance with her own cultivation level!
If that's the case... isn't this girl actually considered a monster genius as well?''
The more that the red-robed young man stared at the scene in the city, the more dumbfounded he became, while a myriad of thoughts seemed to have flashed through his eyes at the same time.
At that moment, a young woman in red-robes whose cultivation was at the early rank 3 of the Nascent Soul stage appeared next to him, and staring at the scene in the distance she couldn't help asking in a somewhat weak as well as uncertain voice
''Senior brother... doesn't that girl's fighting style look very similar to senior brother Jun's?''
Serious looks flashed through 2 other disciples' faces when they heard this question, before they immediately turned their attention towards the red-robed young man, almost as if they were waiting for his reaction.
The red-robed young man however simply smiled when he heard this before he turned his eyes to look at the young woman who had asked this question and said in an easy-going tone
''Hehe, you are right! At first glance, her style does indeed look similar to Jun Ren's.
However, although it happens to look similar, in reality, there are also many differences as well, whether that is in their true strength or their own cultivation, as well as the way they truly fight!
Hehehe! Don't forget that despite being ranked 8th in our continent, I am definitely among the 1000 strongest people in this third test.
And yet, even I wouldn't dare to fight with Jun Ren head-on.
There is a reason why he was called the undefeated God of War in our younger generation!
Probably in this entire test of the Holy sect, there will be one, or at most two other people who are able to match him in a head-on fight, and all of them will definitely become disciples of the Holy sect without question!
I can confidently tell you that even if this girl was at the peak of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul stage as well, she would still have no chance fighting against Jun Ren in a one-versus-one!''
The young woman who had asked this question, as well as the 2 other red-robed disciples who were close to the red-robed young man and happened to overhear this, all nodded their heads at the same time, as they continued to stare at the scene inside the city.
At that moment however, the look on the red-robed young man's face turned slightly serious as he then added a shocking sentence
''However, if that girl's cultivation was actually reached the peak of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul as well, she would probably be able to enter the top 5 rankings in our continent!
Actually... even the top 3 wouldn't be impossible either! After all, if that terrifying black beast was at the peak of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul, it would probably be able to fight against an early rank 4 Nascent Soul cultivator without losing!''
The moment that the disciples around the red-robed young man heard his judgement, looks of shock immediately covered their faces.
The top 3?
And yet, since it was this red-robed young man who had said this, they had no other choice but to accept that it was very likely to be true.
After all, this young man was someone who was ranked within the top 10 in their own continent, and he was the most qualified person here to judge Liu Mei's talent.
ROOOOAAARR
By the time that these discussions had come to an end, the gigantic body of the Death Eater had already completely come out from the black hole, as it let out a powerful roar, as its aura that was filled with tyranny and killing intent swept through the entire battlefield, instantly shaking the hearts of all the criminals inside the city!
The black-robed old man who had sent out the hundreds of wind blades involuntarily took a few steps back, while an obvious look of fear suddenly covered his face.
And yet, this wasn't the end!
Following behind the enormous body of the Death Eater, hundreds of skeletons started to appear from the black hole all at the same time, following behind the 50 black-armored undead knights who were wielding their black greatswords!
It only took a few moments for the 50 undead knights and the 1000 skeletons to arrange themselves in front of Liu Mei, as they all turned their attention towards the black-robed old man who was just 200 meters away from them.
The green and red wisps of ember that were flickering inside their eye sockets, finally made the old man feel a profound sense of fear for the first time today... a fear that seemed to have stemmed from the bottom of his heart.
Liu Mei however wasn't planning on giving the old man even a single chance to try and escape, and raising her left hand, she simply pointed forward.
At that moment, the aura of 1000 skeletons and 50 undead knights at the early and the middle of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul stage instantly exploded at the same time, immediately drowning the entire city!
A terrifying scene that could shock any rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator suddenly appeared in the old man's eyes!
1000 jade-white skeletons at the early rank 3 of the Nascent Soul were holding the bony white swords in their hands, as they followed behind the 3m(10ft) tall undead knights clad in black armor, as they all rushed towards the old man at the same time!
Seeing this soul-shaking scene, the old man didn't hesitate any longer, as he turned his head around and looked at the old woman in red armor and the man with the snake eyes before he shouted loudly
''Quickly! Come here and help me!''
The moment that the old man finished his words, hundreds of wind blades quickly took shape in the air around him, as they all shot towards the army of undead that were rushing towards him without any fear in their eyes.
At the same time, in the alliance of disciples outside the city, the red-robed young man who was at the peak of rank 3 of the Nascent Soul, narrowed his eyes as he stared at Liu Mei's army, before his lips slowly curved up into a smile.
Without saying a single word, he instantly soared to the sky as he flew towards the city at full speed!
The disciples in the alliance around him were stunned by this sudden turn of events, but without any hesitation, they all followed after the red-robed young man, as they flew towards the city as well, almost as if they were competing with each other!
How could they not understand, that with Liu Mei attacking the city by herself, this was their best chance to obtain the Holy sect's token?
It was obvious that even if they did nothing, the white-robed young woman on the Death Eater's back would most likely end up obtaining the token by herself!
At that moment, it would be practically impossible for most of these disciples to even have a chance at getting their hands on it and pass the third test.
