Chapter 202: Some Scruples
Soon, the half-hour limit passed and the grace period Zhang Liang had previously given was no longer valid.
"Since you don't want to leave, then pay with your life!"
Zhang Liang spoke coldly, and as his mind moved, countless sword energies poured down like a rainstorm, dense and endless.
Although the hundreds of people had prepared for defense, they were still powerless in the face of this endless rain of swords. More than half of them died in the first wave of attack.
You know, each sword energy is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a top master. Everyone has to face at least ten sword energies. How can anyone who is not a master-level master easily resist?
At this moment, even Xun Kuang couldn't help but feel apprehensive. This formation posed a real threat to him.
Screams, blood, broken limbs, and wreckage. In an instant, the scene was like hell on earth.
"Archer, release your arrows!"
Then, the three hundred guards behind Zhang Liang raised their crossbows and shot without hesitation. After a round of arrow rain, many people who were injured by the sword energy but not dead were unable to avoid these arrows, and another group of people fell down.
At this time, Zhang Liang, after a round of sword energy attack, regained control of the formation.
Controlling the formation to release endless sword energy had already consumed his energy, relying on the sword energy accumulated over a long period of time. Zhang Liang's previous delay was both giving those people a chance and giving himself time to prepare.
Xun Kuang saw this, but he did not say anything, nor did he stop it. He also needed time to study the formation and find a way to break it.
"kill!"
The people who stayed behind had already prepared for the battle, but they were caught off guard by the sword energy and rain of arrows. The power of both the sword energy and the arrows far exceeded their expectations.
At this moment, the sword energy stopped, and the remaining masters immediately attacked Zhang Liang under a hail of arrows.
There were actually four Grandmaster-level experts among the forces that had gathered this time, not including those who had already left. Among them, only one was injured by Zhang Liang's sword energy, and the other three relied on others to resist the sword energy and arrows, and were unharmed.
At this moment, the four of them rushed towards Zhang Liang at the same time.
"snort!"
Zhang Liang snorted and waved his hand, and sword energy condensed in the sky again. However, this time it was no longer dense and endless sword energy, but only nine, but each sword was more than ten feet long, extremely condensed, and incredibly powerful, far exceeding the previous sword energy.
"go!"
Zhang Liang shouted softly, and nine sword energies rushed towards the four masters.
Each of these nine sword energies is as powerful as a full-strength attack from a master. Although not as mysterious, they are by no means inferior in power.
In an instant, the three uninjured masters each blocked two sword energies and barely took them, but they looked a little embarrassed. The injured master, facing the special attention of the three sword energies, was seriously injured again.
Without any need for Zhang Liang's instructions, after the master was injured, countless arrows immediately covered him and instantly turned him into a hornet's nest.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the three masters immediately stopped rushing towards Zhang Liang, but hid behind Xun Kuang and stopped attacking.
Zhang Liang ignored the three people for the time being and directly controlled nine giant sword energies to massacre the rest of the people.
Not everyone dared to rush forward after experiencing the fear of death. After a round of endless sword energy slaughter, many people fled in all directions.
Perhaps, these people had no intention of confronting Zhang Liang head-on, but just wanted to take advantage of the chaos to plunder treasures in Zhang Liang's Taoist temple. Everyone knew how precious the elixirs and magic weapons in Zhang Liang's hands were, not to mention the art of refining elixirs and weapons?
If you can find one or two in the chaos, it will be worth the trip.
Zhang Liang certainly would not let these people disrupt the Taoist temple. Those who had previously attempted to sneak into the palace on the back mountain of the Taoist temple had been eliminated, and this group of people was naturally no exception.
Nine sword energies crisscrossed and appeared mysteriously, and instantly took away more than a dozen lives.
"Hey, stop it, I will take them down the mountain right now, there is no need to kill any more!"
Xun Kuang suddenly took action to block Zhang Liang's sword energy.
"Xun Kuang, you are courting death. If my Taoist temple loses one person because of these people, I will make a hundred of your Confucianists pay with their lives!" Zhang Liang shouted coldly, increasing the power of his sword energy.
Chisongzi also acted quickly to stop Xun Kuang. Zhang Liang took the opportunity to manipulate the formation and killed those who were fleeing one by one.
Not everyone wanted to fish in troubled waters, and some people rushed directly down the mountain. Zhang Liang ignored these people, as the path down the mountain was completely covered by the maze, and they could not escape.
In just a dozen breaths, Zhang Liang eliminated all those who intended to break into the palace complex in the back mountain.
At this moment, except for some people trapped in the maze, there were only Xun Kuang, Han Fei, Wei Zhuang, and the three unidentified masters.
Chi Songzi brought Yan Lingji, Wushuang Gui and others and three hundred personal guards to confront them, but both sides had masters from the land of immortals, and they were wary of each other and did not really take action.
