After Shi Haoyan’s words had fallen,

Xiang Taiqing shouted, “All disciples above the second layer of the Acquired State, set up the Taiyi Sword Array for me!”

As these words were spoken,

all disciples below the second layer of the Acquired State withdrew from the square at once. Lying on the ground, Qiu Zhongsheng feigned unconsciousness. As the Great Elder of Taiyi Sect, how could he now stand with dignity? Even his private parts were left exposed without any fabric to cover them.

Feeling waves of sharp pain coming from his abdomen, Qiu Zhongsheng wished he could flay and bone Shen Feng alive. His internal organs had sustained considerable damage. Upon hearing the Sect Leader say they were to set up the Taiyi Sword Array, a ruthless smirk appeared on his face.

The Taiyi Sword Array, inherited from a very ancient era, was Taiyi Sect’s protective formation. It could only be set up in the square of the Taiyi Sect.

Once the Taiyi Sword Array was deployed, even a Grandmaster at the Innate Peak would be unable to withstand it.

Many Taiyi Sect disciples left the square, revealing a series of clear, visible lines on the ground.

Footprints were engraved on these lines, and the disciples above the second layer of the Acquired State quickly stepped into them.

Shen Feng studied the arrangement of these footprints and the interweaving patterns on the ground, and with his expertise in formations, he nearly instantly comprehended the Taiyi Sect’s Sword Array.

Xiang Taiqing saw that not all of the Taiyi Sect disciples above the second layer of the Acquired State were in position. Fearing Shen Feng’s interference, he exchanged a glance with Shi Haoyan, and they immediately attacked Shen Feng.

Xiang Taiqing aimed a palm strike at Shen Feng’s chest from the front, while Shi Haoyan swung a palm towards Shen Feng’s back.

Having witnessed Shen Feng’s strength, they naturally did not hold back.

They were merely trying to buy time for the Taiyi Sect disciples to get into position, so they refrained from using overly complicated moves.

However, a full-strength palm from a Grandmaster in the late stage of the Innate level, even without flashy moves, was absolutely powerful.

Shen Feng shook his head; he couldn’t even be bothered to dodge.

Seeing Shen Feng standing still, Xiang Taiqing and Shi Haoyan’s hearts leaped with joy. Was this masked man too arrogant for his own good? Their palm winds became even more fierce.

“Bang! Bang!”

“Crack! Crack!”

The sounds of bones shattering echoed in the air, much to the delight of the Taiyi Sect disciples, who thought it was Shen Feng’s bones being crushed.

From a distance, Xiang Bin bellowed, “You self-righteous dog, who do you think you are? Daring to stand there and take hits from my father and my martial uncle? Now your bones are broken, right? There’s no need to activate the Taiyi Sword Array.”

Fei Chao, who had lost his limbs, revealed a look of relief and weakly yelled, “You think you’re all that, don’t you? Wearing a mask and thinking you’re a superhero? Offending our Taiyi Sect, just wait to descend to hell!”

Qiu Zhongsheng, still pretending to be unconscious, seized the moment when no one was looking to open his eyes, already contemplating how he would torment this masked man.

Uncle Zhong and Ji Yunhan’s beautiful eyes showed signs of worry—could it be that Senior Shen’s bones had indeed been crushed?

Shi Menglan’s gaze in her beautiful eyes flickered incessantly.

Just then,

Shen Feng casually said, “Do your palms hurt?”

As Shen Feng spoke, Xiang Taiqing and Shi Haoyan staggered back several steps. Their palms, which had struck Shen Feng, trembled non-stop, and all the bones in their palms were shattered.

What exactly was happening?

They were Grandmasters in the late stage of the Innate level! What were this masked man’s bones made of? Clearly, they had hit him, but it was the bones in their palms that had broken?

Watching Shi Haoyan and Xiang Taiqing’s hands tremble nonstop, Xiang Bin and the others all ran out of steam, unable to utter a single sound from their throats.

Ji Yunhan and Uncle Zhong’s faces erupted with astonishing joy.

Xiang Taiqing, seeing that all the disciples of the Taiyi Sect were in place, roared with all his might, “Activate the Taiyi Sword Array!”

Each disciple standing within their footprints began circulating the Taiyi Sect’s cultivation technique within their bodies.

Then, the patterns across the entire square started to flicker, and behind every Taiyi Sect disciple hung a longsword.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!——”

Sharp longswords flew out of their scabbards, a total of more than a hundred sharp longswords.

After flying out, these longswords formed a Taiji pattern in the sky.

The next second, the sharp swords rushed towards Shen Feng from all directions, as if intending to pierce his body into minced flesh.

Xiang Taiqing’s face was cold, and under the Taiyi Sword Array, this masked man, no matter how strong, was doomed to die.

Shi Haoyan had just said, “It’s over,” the moment the Taiyi Sword Array was activated.

Xiang Bin’s spirits rose again, mocking as he watched the swords flying towards Shen Feng, “Can someone like you shake the foundation of our Taiyi Sect? Go to hell!”

Standing not far from Shen Feng, Ji Yunhan and Uncle Zhong saw the densely packed flying swords.

As a disciple of the Taiyi Sect, Uncle Zhong knew very well the power of the Taiyi Sword Array; each sword had strong piercing capabilities.

Although Shen Feng’s physical body was strong, there were so many sharp flying swords! Some of the swords were aimed at vulnerable areas like Shen Feng’s eyes, so for a moment, Uncle Zhong didn’t dare to breathe.

Shen Feng shook his head, “Why bother? You want to kill me, so I have no reason not to kill you.”

Spiritual energy surged from beneath his feet, rapidly changing the patterns on the square.

Less than a single breath’s time had passed.

The flying swords that had been charging forward all stopped mid-air, and Xiang Taiqing’s gaze faltered, what was happening?

The next second.

As the flying swords all changed direction, heading back towards their point of origin,

Xiang Taiqing’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets, watching the speed and force of each longsword; had this masked man altered the Taiyi Sword Array? How was this possible? Someone who could instantly change the Taiyi Sword Array would need to have an incredibly deep mastery of formations – no such person existed in today’s Martial Arts World.

Those disciples standing in the footprints, unable to dodge due to the Taiyi Sword Array’s activation which caused a suction force from the ground, looked at the sharp longswords flying towards their heads, their faces suddenly filled with fear, and they screamed in chorus, “No, no, no…”

Shen Feng had no intention of showing mercy, always watching the scene before him with a calm face, these people had fully trapped themselves.

“Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!——”

A sword pierced through the head of a Taiyi Sect disciple.

The sharp swords seemed not to be piercing through heads, but through one watermelon after another.

It was just a moment.

The heads of more than a hundred Taiyi Sect disciples were all pierced by sharp longswords.

All of these were disciples above the second layer of the Acquired State! The loss of more than a hundred people in one breath was nothing short of a disaster for the Taiyi Sect.
