Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

There was sudden fluctuation of strong energy, and a beam of bright red light broke out from the calm surface of the lake!

The light flickered like a fire, turning the lake into a sea of flames.

“What… What the hell?!”

Zhou Xiaokun stopped running, afraid to walk any closer to the passage.

It was too late for him to turn back either.

“My god! Why… Why is this light tangled around my feet? I can’t move! Help me! Save me!” Zhou Xiaokun screamed in horror as he watched the red flames reach out from within the lake and wrap itself around his legs.

Light was supposed to be intangible but it clutched on to Zhou Xiaokun and locked him in his place.

“Xiaobei! What is happening?” Luo Puti asked.

She was the one who really wanted to get into the Ancient Jingjue Kingdom but when she saw this happening, she began to fear for herself.

If even Zhou Xiaokun could not enter, then what more herself?

“The energy fluctuation is very strong. It is impairing our movement. This is a Formation! If I’m not mistaken, this is the Thousand Spirit Formation that is used to guard the gate to Jingjue Kingdom!”

“Tho… Thousand Spirit Formation…”

Everyone could feel the hairs on the back of their necks stand.

Chen Xiaobei had told Luo Puti about this before. But everyone else was completely unprepared for this. It was only normal for them to feel terrified.

“Save me! Help!”

Zhou Xiaokun’s screams grew desperate.

A ten meter tall giant evil spirit rose from under the red sea of flames, its eyes fixed on Zhou Xiaokun.

Not only was it large in size, but it also looked very bizarre.

It had no legs, and it was alight in a blood-red flame from waist down. Above its waist, was a human torso but covered in spirit-eyes in varying sizes! There were at least thousands of eyeballs which kept looking around on that ten meter long body!

Its appearance itself was enough to send shivers down the spine!

It was worth mentioning that its form was similar to the Asura Hunter-spirit, where they could disappear and materialize themselves anytime they wished. People without a Yin Yang Eye would not be able to see it.

Zhou Xiaokun was this close to wetting himself. He was trembling violently. “Save me, Mr. Chen! Save me one more time and I’ll give you three, no, I will give you ten Spiritual Items! Please, please, please save me!”

Chen Xiaobei ignored him.

His attention was on the thousand-eyed evil spirit and on its Formation, keeping an eye for any changes.

This was the Thousand Spirit Formation after all. This was not the only evil spirit that had been summoned!

“Mr. Chen, what should we do? Should we retreat?” Zhuo Qunfeng’s voice was shaking.

Everyone else turned to Chen Xiaobei.

He was their mainstay. If he said run, they would all pick up their feet and flee.

“It’s too late for that!” Chen Xiaobei shook his head and then slowly turned around.

The others followed his gaze, and looked behind.

Their hearts beat noisily in their ears and their legs felt useless underneath them.

In the whole stretch of tunnel behind them, evil spirits were pouring out like a flood!

Every one of them was extremely fast, and each wielded at least 100,000 combat power! They resembled the Asura Hunter-spirits that they had met earlier.

But these evil spirits had a scarlet glow about them, turning the place into what looked like a crimson hell!

“This desert is called Taklamakan. It means ‘no return’!” The thousand-eyed evil spirits on the lake spoke with a frightening amalgamation of voices. “Since you have all come, then don’t even think about leaving!”

Just as it had finished talking, something even more terrifying appeared before them!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

The thousand-eyed evil spirit’s ghastly eyes were spitting out evil spirits like a fountain!

Each ghastly eyes spewed from them ten evil spirits! That was a total of 10,000 evil spirits all hovering above the sea of flames!

Apparently, this was the actual Thousand Spirit Formation. The thousands of evil spirits behind were just Asura Hunter-spirits!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Hundreds of evil spirits from among the thousands were moving towards Zhou Xiaokun.

“Don’t… Don’t come near me! Let me go! I don’t want to die!”

Zhou Xiaokun’s screams were desperate. Every fiber of his being was drenched in fear.

With his feet seized by the red light, he could only watch in horror as hundreds of evil spirits glided towards him.

Riiiip! Crack! Crack! Rip!

After a few minutes of deafening sounds of flesh ripping and bones breaking, all that was left of Zhou Xiaokun were a pile of white bones. There was not even a trace of blood or flesh!

In the slit in the center of the evil spirit’s ghastly eyes was a jagged gash. It was evident that it was its mouth, still munching away at Zhou Xiaokun’s flesh and blood.

Everyone drew in their breath. They were all Jianghu people. They had experienced all sorts of bloodbaths, but were barely able to take in the sick incident before their eyes.

Had a common person seen it, they would have died simply by the sight of it!

“F*ck! A few hundred evil spirits could kill elder Shixiong in seconds! There are like thousands of them here. There’s no way we can escape!”

“Not only that, there are a few thousand Asura Hunter-spirits behind us! We’re trapped!”

“We’re dead! This time, we’re really going to die! No matter how powerful Mr. Chen is, he can’t possibly protect us all!”

The devastation began to set in.

None of them believed that they had any chance of surviving this. Unless a deity miraculously swooped down to save them, there was no way they could get out this situation!

“You guys are quite self-aware, after all! You will all die today! No one can ever survive before the Thousand Spirit Formation! Hahaha!”

The thousand-eyed evil spirit laughed.

No one said anything. They had all given up on all hope of pulling through. There was no fighting spirit left in them but a hopelessness that weighed down on them as they waited for their deaths!

Only Chen Xiaobei managed to keep his composure. “Puti! Use the holy item I gave you earlier to defend the back!”

“Mm! Alright!” Luo Puti pulled herself together and took out the Heart Cleansing Ancient Plate that she carried around everywhere with her ever since. She held it with both hands and turned to face the swarm of evil spirits which were surging towards them.
