Just as Shen Yurou and Dailisi had set up their formation, the first wave of impact erupted from the pit.


    The reason the opponents reacted so slowly was crystal clear to Zi Liyuan.


    Ever since he had arrived, his Spirit had spread out, and both the "Elemental Map" and "Death’s Eye" skills had been activated.


    The base below the farm was clearly reflected in his mind, he was well aware of how many cultists from the Heretical Sect were inside.


    The high-ranking members of the Heretical Sect, who didn’t flee immediately, were either observing the situation or opening the treasury to collect items.


    Just a few minutes’ dy, and their destinies were drastically altered.


    If those cultists had charged out at the first opportunity, even Zi Liyuan might not have been able to intercept and guarantee to block every single one of them.


    After all, the opponent had over a dozen Fourth Order Peak powerhouses. It wouldn’t be difficult for them to hold him off for a short while, buying time for their subordinates to escape.


    But given the nature of the cultists, the chances of theming out to hold him off were incredibly low.


    Every man for himself in the face of disaster should be the norm.


    As for now, because of those few minutes of dy, Shen Yurou and Dailisi had already established a blockade. Anyone wishing to break through would face numerous difficulties.


    Besides, Zi Liyuan wouldn’t just stand by and watch. He had already summoned two squads of Spectral Dragon Lord Boss teams.


    Two hundred Spectral Dragon Lord Bosses emerged and immediately summoned an army of Replicas. Then, a total of 1,400 Spectral Dragons hovered in the air, quietly waiting for the prey to sessfully break through the many obstacles ande to them so they could feast on them.


    Zi Liyuan had no intention of letting any of the cultists slip away.


    Being an enemy listed in his little notebook meant that they must bepletely eradicated.


    After all, even leaving one enemy behind could possibly lead to their resurgence in the future, right?


    In countless film and television works from his past life, there were scenes of revivals due to the failure topletely eliminate the problem, which ultimately led to a disastrous ending.


    As a protagonist with quite a penchant for revenge, how could he allow such viins from a Heretical Sect the chance to rise again?


    So, they all had to be killed!


    And the Shadow Sect of the Void, a Heretical Sect that had been developing for nearly a century, surely had many treasures stored within their headquarters.


    Now with the tools for looting the dead and scouring the spoils, even a non-tier professional couldn’t be overlooked. If an item of treasure were to be taken by them, wouldn’t he suffer a huge loss?


    A family should all lie down neatly together!


    One by one, powerful skills surged from the pit into the sky. Unfortunately, a barrier shieldposed of dark energy enveloped the entire entrance, preventing any attack from breaking through.


    Underground, the cultists, of course, would not just watch passively, so countless powerful energies were unleashed.


    For a while, crackling sounds erupted near the pit’s entrance.


    The fighting here was intense, but Zi Liyuan was not idle. Instead, he summoned the epic beasts, then guided them with his Spirit, directing these beasts to work.


    There was no choice; this was the headquarters of the Shadow Sect of the Void, buried deep underground with four levels, and several special escape tunnels below.


    Summoning these epic beasts, Zi Liyuan intended to block all these escape tunnels, leaving the enemy no way out, forcing them to charge through the giant hole created by Xiao Guang.


    The first to unleash its power was, of course, the Ridgeback Tortoise, known as the old turtle.


    As an Earth-type epic boss, it possessed the skill to create a massive earthquake!


    So, what followed was a series of massive earthquakes in the area surrounding the farm, as if the earth dragon were turning over in its sleep.


    Wave after wave, the earthquakes were relentless.


    The escape tunnels buried deep underground were slowly squeezed by the surrounding rocks and soil under the violent shaking and, unable to withstand the pressure, copsed and were sealed off.


    One by one, the escape tunnels were destroyed by the old turtle.


    As for the special sturdy tunnels that the earthquake could not affect, they were taken care of by the Frost Giant and the Hydra Monster.


    A st of absolute zero and the entire tunnel turned into an icy cavity, where entering would subject one to the invasion of the cold ice.


    The Hydra Monster went even further, its nine different heads controlled nine different elemental powers.


    Each one demonstrated its own ability, creating countless elemental traps within those special escape tunnels.


    Deadly poison, thunderbolt lightning, Thorn Jungle...


    After an array of elemental traps, it could be said that even a Fourth Order Peak expert who fled into these special escape corridors would have to peel off ayer of skin toe out alive! And when they managed to escape outside, what awaited them was to be ambushed by epic monsters!


    Out of the fourteen Fourth Order Peak cultists from the Heretical Sect of Spectral Shadows, only four led most of the cultists in the assault on the entrance.


    The remaining ten, with a portion of their subordinates, hastily packed up the important treasures from the vault and then rushed toward the escape tunnels.


    Unfortunately, Zi Liyuan’s actions were too swift, and the old tortoise’s power too strong.


    They managed to copse most of the escape tunnels, leaving only two that were barely passable for their escape.


    However, when they entered these two tunnels, they were dumbfounded.


    Damn it, a good escape tunnel had turned into a dead end full of traps.


    Attempting to escape had be a decision with a nine in ten chance of dying; this was virtually leaving them no way out!


    The ten Fourth Order Peak cultists looked at each other and saw hesitation in each other’s eyes. Your journey continues on empire


    Most of the escape tunnels had copsed, leaving only two filled with traps, and who knew if there would be a bunch of old Lius ambushing them outside, waiting for them to fall into their?


    It was clear that the person who attacked their headquarters of the Heretical Sect of Spectral Shadows must be a powerful figure sent by the officials.


    With such a rapid response, they must have summoned quite a number to deal with them.


    n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Rather than taking the escape tunnels and being calcted against and ambushed at the end, it would probably be far more likely to survive byunching a frontal assault.


    The ten exchanged nces, naturally without letting their subordinates see.


    So these ten guys, without any hesitation, led their respective subordinates straight to the base of therge hole that had been opened, and joined the rest of the cultists.


    The escape tunnels, a certain death with no life!


    A frontal assault, a nine in ten chance of dying!


    The choice was obvious.


    So the second wave of the assault immediately gathered the entire force of the Heretical Sect of Spectural Shadows headquarters.


    This time’s assault was several timesrger than the first!


    However, the ground defenses had also be much stronger.


    The main force of the defenses was still ck Dragon Sister Dailisi, with various ck magic barriers making up severalyers of protection.


    It could be said that they had blocked the entire mouth of therge hole with four or fiveyers.


    Huge magic shockwaves or skill shockwaves, no matter how violent, had weakened significantly after breaking through threeyers of protective barriers.


    By the time they reached the fifthyer, their power had greatly diminished, and although they had broken through all the barriers, they then faced the bombardment from guns and cannons on Shen Yurou’s semi-automatic tforms.


    A group of cultists charging forward, braving a hail of bullets, saw their barrier shields being broken one after another.


    Fortunately, these guys were not as selfish as Zi Liyuan had imagined; they knew to pool their strength for protection. Otherwise, they might have lost a third of their number before they even made it halfway to the entrance.


    "Roar!"


    Just as a group of cultists was about to reach the entrance, Dailisi let out a furious roar, and the ck Dragon opened its gaping maw towards the entrance, exhaling a breath tinged with the pungent smell of sulfur.


    The scorching dragon breath descended from the sky, rushing down through the entrance unobstructed, like a pot of boiling hot oil being poured over the heads of the cultists below.


    Facing the dragon breath, a huge round ice shield enveloped hundreds of cultists within.


    Relying on the power of ice, they resisted the high temperatures of the dragon breath.


    For a moment, the entirerge hole experienced a sh of ice and fire, with a vast amount of steam instantly enveloping and hiding the entire corridor.
