Chapter 4125: Killing the Three Great Sect Leaders
"Not allowed to kill us? You think too highly of yourselves."
Ye Bufan smiled coldly, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Normally, there was indeed a balance between the Human Race powerhouses and other forces. Breaking it could very likely bring about the Human Race's demise.
But now, things were completely different. Not to mention that Qin Fei Shang Yuyin had already been created, adding a Five-Rank Saint Emperor to the Human Race.
Just consider that Saint Rhythm Pill; it was believed that Sword Emperor would soon enter the ranks of the Sixth Grade.
A Sixth Grade Saint Emperor was several times stronger than three Five-Rank Saint Emperors combined. In this situation, even if the balance was broken, it would be the Human Race bullying other races.
Therefore, Kou Hongliao using the Human Race's safety as a bargaining chip at this moment was simply a joke.
Zu Taibai and the other two, however, did not know this. Seeing that Ye Bufan was unyielding, the three exchanged glances.
Although they didn't speak, they were all old foxes and easily understood what the other's gaze implied.
The three of them simultaneously rose into the air and pounced on Ye Bufan.
As the saying goes, to catch the bandits, first catch their leader. In their opinion, as long as they captured Ye Bufan, it didn't matter if they didn't understand Formation.
But they greatly underestimated the Twelfth-Tier Immortal Formation. As soon as they moved, Ye Bufan's figure had already disappeared.
Then, countless flames rose, transforming into an boundless sea of fire, completely engulfing the three.
These were not ordinary flames, but extremely pure yellow异火, making it extremely difficult even for three Five-Rank Saint Emperors to deal with.
The most crucial thing was that within the Formation, they quickly lost each other's positions and could only fight individually; it was impossible to join forces.
In the endless sea of fire, not to mention seeing each other, not even Divine Sense could sweep out.
Kou Hongliao's expression was extremely grim. As an old monster who had lived for tens of thousands of years, he had naturally experienced many dangers, but this time, he felt an immense crisis.
Looking around, all he could see was yellow异火, mixed with countless lightning bolts.
To resist the scorching of the flames, he had to continuously release Immortal Essence and reinforce his Immortal Emperor Domain.
At the same time, he also had to spare energy to resist the incessant lightning strikes.
The most crucial thing was that he was completely isolated, unable to discern directions or know where the exit was.
Such enormous consumption, even a Five-Rank Saint Emperor couldn't endure it. At this rate, their Immortal Essence would eventually be depleted.
At that time, unable to resist the attacks of lightning and fire, they would ultimately be buried here.
But the facts proved he was overthinking; Ye Bufan would not give the three too much time. As the saying goes, a long night brings many dreams, so a quick resolution was necessary.
Kou Hongliao was resisting the overwhelming flames when suddenly, a Sword Qi emerged from the sea of fire, striking directly at his glabella.
It was Xuan Yuan Linglong who attacked. If it were normal times, their strengths would be comparable, but now the situation was completely different.
Most of Kou Hongliao's energy was tied up by the Formation, and coupled with this being a sneak attack, he was caught off guard for a moment.
In his panic, he disregarded the overwhelming lightning and fire, and his long sword hastily met the Sword Qi.
Originally, their strengths were comparable, and now he was drawing his sword in haste; the outcome was predictable.
Kou Hongliao was sent flying by Xuan Yuan Linglong's sword, leaving a foot-long sword mark on his chest.
But this was just the beginning. As his body retreated, an immortal sword emerged from the flames behind him; Lu Banxia had also made her move at this moment.
Although he felt the Killing Intent and danger behind him, Kou Hongliao had completely exhausted his Immortal Essence at this moment. Facing a surprise attack, how could he have any power to resist?
Without any difficulty, Lu Banxia's immortal sword directly pierced from his back, exiting through his chest, piercing his heart with one strike, and the sharp Sword Qi shredded his internal organs.
"Ah!"
Kou Hongliao let out a final, mournful wail, filled with endless rage and unwillingness.
Just a short while ago, he was the Sect Master of the Five Great Sects, a Five-Rank Saint Emperor, high above, controlling the lives and deaths of countless people, almost standing at the pinnacle of this realm.
But in an instant, simply because he attacked Ye Bufan, he ended up with such a fate.
Killed with one sword, his Primordial Spirit overflowed from his Mud-Pill Palace and was directly taken away by the Demon Refining Bottle waiting overhead.
Ye Bufan reached out and grabbed the opponent's Storage Ring in his palm, then the corpse was quickly swallowed by the flames, leaving not even a speck of ash.
He did not use the power of the Formation to completely kill him, for the purpose of preserving his Primordial Spirit and Storage Ring.
The reason he didn't travel with Sword Emperor Qin Fei was also here: no matter who came to attack him, the opponent's Primordial Spirit would become his Medicinal Pill for advancement.
In fact, his combined attack technique was also extremely efficient. Formation combined with a surprise attack from two Five-Rank Saint Emperors, then defeating them one by one, the opponent simply had no power to resist.
Although Kou Hongliao and the other two were separated by the Formation, they were not far apart. They couldn't see each other, but they could hear the sounds clearly.
Hearing that mournful cry, Ni Sakong's heart trembled.
In terms of strength, the three of them were basically equal. Kou Hongliao was no weaker than him, and now that the opponent had fallen, how long could he last?
Thinking of this, he shouted loudly, "Pill King Ye, I surrender. As long as you name your conditions, this old man will surely agree, as long as you let me live."
He saw clearly that resistance was impossible now, and he could only bow his head and admit defeat.
As long as he preserved his life, he would have a chance to seek revenge later.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Bufan's voice came from the sea of fire.
"Ni Sakong, do you remember how many times your Lingxiao Sect has attacked me?
As the saying goes, 'once, twice, but not thrice or fourth.' But how many times have you already attacked me?
For someone like you, even if I wanted to let you go, I couldn't find a reason!"
"Pill King Ye, it was all this old man's fault before. I promise I will never be your enemy again."
Now Ni Sakong understood that Liu Wuzhou and the other two must have died at Ye Bufan's hands. The opponent completely had the ability to kill three Saint Emperors, but now was not the time to pursue it.
"As long as Pill King shows mercy, this old man is willing to offer ten billion immortal crystals."
"No need. Your Storage Ring is already mine, including your life."
As soon as Ye Bufan finished speaking, Lu Banxia's immortal sword pierced out from the flames.
Although Ni Sakong was prepared, he was unfortunately not strong enough, not much different from the previous Kou Hongliao.
Under the pincer attack of Xuan Yuan Linglong and the other, he only lasted three moves before his head was quickly cut off.
Ye Bufan took his Storage Ring and Primordial Spirit, and another Divine Essence Pill was added inside the Demon Refining Bottle.
After hearing the screams of the two consecutively, Zu Taibai's eyes were filled with despair.
"Pill King Ye, is there no room for maneuver between us?"
"There was before you came to kill me, but now there isn't."
As soon as Ye Bufan finished speaking, Xuan Yuan Linglong and the other had already made their move.
Zu Taibai was insatiably greedy and sought his own demise; he couldn't blame anyone else.
The most crucial thing was, having seen so many secrets, how could he be allowed to live?
A moment later, the Sect Master of Tiansheng Sect fell on the spot.
