"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
It is simply impossible to break through the Purple Flame Sect's protective formation relying solely on everyone's own strength. With the help of the time-space shuttle, the Purple Flame Sect can either wait for Yang Qi and his group to break through the protective formation and enter their lair, or send strong men to stop them.
Yang Qi looked at the Purple Flame Cult's nest standing in the void not far away with a solemn look on his face. At this moment, the protective formation of the Purple Flame Cult's nest had been fully activated, and the power emanating from the formation was enough to make even he feel a lot of pressure.
"Will that person show up?" Yang Qi looked at Liu Can on the side and asked.
"meeting."
Liu Can nodded and continued, "Your cultivation level is too confusing, and Emperor Xue Hong and his men have already started to activate the time shuttle, leaving little time for the Purple Flame Cult's strong men to think. They can either kill us and stop us, or they can only wait to die."
Once the time shuttle is activated, it will definitely be able to break through the Purple Flame Sect's protective formation. Liu Can and others are aware of this, and the Purple Flame Sect's strong men are also aware that if they don't come out to stop them, they will only die. Even though they know that it is risky to come out to stop Yang Qi and others, they have no other choice, just like when the practitioners under Emperor Mokong attacked Daluo Sect, the protective formation was almost broken, and Emperor Tianyi Wu and others could only fight out of their nests and stop the enemy at all costs.
If Liu Can's companions were strong, the strong men of the Purple Flame Sect might choose to evacuate secretly, but Yang Qi was only a cultivator at the peak of the four-star Martial Emperor level. If it were Liu Can, he would also choose to fight his way out if he didn't know Yang Qi's true strength.
Hearing Liu Can's words, Yang Qi nodded, and then looked at the three people of Emperor Xue Hong who were activating the time-space shuttle not far away, and said again, "With the strength of Emperor Xue Hong and others, how long will it take to activate the time-space shuttle?"
"About ten breaths." Liu Can said in a deep voice.
Ten breaths of time is not worth mentioning at all compared to the long lifespan of a Martial Emperor, but in a battle, it is enough to decide life or death!
According to the information from the previous battle between Liu Can and others and the strong man from the Purple Flame Divine Sect, with the strength of Yang Qi and Liu Can, even if they could not take the enemy by surprise, it would be easy for them to delay the late-stage five-star Martial Emperor for ten breaths.
Whoosh~
At this moment, a stream of light suddenly flew out from the lair of the Purple Flame Cult, and it turned out to be an old man in a purple-red robe.
The old man's eyes fell directly on Liu Can, and he said with a cold smile, "You guys got away with it last time, but I didn't expect you to come to my door again so soon."
"If I hadn't been careless last time, you wouldn't have been able to hurt me." Liu Can said with a grim expression.
In terms of strength alone, Liu Can and the old man in front of him are actually about the same, but the old man can rely on the power of the sect protection formation. In addition, he did not fight him head-on. He was focused on obstructing the destruction of Emperor Xue Hong and the other two from activating the time and space shuttle. He was forced to withstand the opponent's attack and was injured.
"Then I will take a look at what you have to rely on to dare to come this time!"
The old man sneered, and then he moved and rushed directly to the direction of the three people of Emperor Xue Hong. With the experience of fighting before, the old man naturally would not fight Liu Can head-on. Destroying the time-space shuttle was the most important thing.
"You must get past this emperor first!"
Seeing the old man using the same trick again, Liu Can didn't hesitate at all. He flashed and turned into a stream of light, killing the old man.
Whoosh~
When Liu Can rushed out, Yang Qi immediately followed, but the speed displayed by Yang Qi was just barely at the level of a five-star Martial Emperor. He did not fully explode, so as not to arouse the old man's vigilance.
"Get lost!"
Looking at Liu Can who was coming to kill him, the old man swung the sword in his hand, and a huge sword light burst out from his hand and slashed towards Liu Can.
Whoosh~
At the same time as the old man made his move, a sharp purple-red light burst out from the Purple Flame Sect's protective formation and attacked Liu Can.
The attack from the protective sect formation alone was not a big threat to a cultivator of Liu Can's level, but if it was combined with the old man's attack, it would be a big trouble for Liu Can.
"Break it for me!"
Faced with the two incoming attacks, Liu Can did not dare to be careless. He frantically urged the Taoist soldier in his hand, turning it into a sharp blade light to block the incoming attacks.
Boom! Boom!
As the two fierce attacks landed, there was an earth-shattering bang, and a terrifying force erupted, directly engulfing Liu Can's figure.
Whoosh~
After stopping Liu Can with one blow, the old man did not hesitate at all. He directly passed Liu Can's position and killed towards the direction of Emperor Xuehong and the other two.
"There is still this level for me!"
Just as the old man passed Liu Can, a figure blocked his way. It was Yang Qi who arrived late.
“A mere junior at the peak of the four-star Martial Emperor level dares to stop me? Go to hell!” Looking at Yang Qi who blocked his way, a look of disdain flashed across the old man’s face. He swung the sword in his hand, and a huge sword light burst out, slashing directly towards Yang Qi.
For a being of Liu Can's level, he still had to rely on the might of the sect protection formation to gain the upper hand, but for a cultivator of Yang Qi's level, he didn't take it seriously at all.
"Stop it for me!"
Facing the incoming attack, Yang Qi shouted loudly, and raised the Black Phoenix Sword in his hand, which immediately turned into a sharp sword light to meet the incoming huge knife light.
“You don’t know your own limitations!”
Seeing that Yang Qi was actually planning to fight him head-on, the old man's face showed even more disdain. His strength was close to that of an ordinary five-star Martial Emperor at the peak. Even a casual attack was comparable to a full-strength attack from a five-star Martial Emperor at the mid-stage.
Boom!
The huge blade light and the sharp sword light collided with each other, and immediately there was a shocking noise. Along with that noise, an invisible storm started to stir.
"How come?"
Seeing that Yang Qi actually blocked his sword, the old man's face suddenly showed a trace of disbelief, and he was stunned. Even if he didn't use his full strength in this sword, it was not something that a four-star Martial Emperor peak practitioner could withstand.
At this moment, the time and space around him suddenly changed, and a strange ringing sound came. The old man immediately felt a strong sense of discomfort coming from the depths of his soul.
"not good!"
The old man's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly mobilized the power of his soul to suppress the discomfort. However, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, a terrifying force attacked him from behind.
"Stop it for me!"
The old man roared, swung the sword in his hand, and hurriedly protected himself.
Boom!
The terrifying might descended, accompanied by a loud bang, and the old man's figure was directly blown away. The person who made the move was Liu Can, who had just been blocked by the old man and the sect protection formation.
