Chapter 1244: Trapping the Enemy

Qin Sang recounted the events from the trading meet earlier. "How did you and Master Kuang end up entangled with those scoundrels from the Heavenly Marching Alliance Did you also join Elder Fang...">M...Although Qin Sang possessed many supernatural abilities, it was not an easy task to kill Dongyang Bo.

Only by introducing him to the flames of hellfire does he have a chance.

Before getting started, Qin Sang had already mentally rehearsed several times.

First, use the Seven Souls Killing Formation to catch Dong Yang Bo off guard. It would be best to trap and kill him directly within the sword formation. If that fails, seize the opportunity to blind his eyes and ears, then summon the Eighteen Demon Banners.

The ebony sword is a top-grade magic treasure, and the Seven Souls Killing Formation is no ordinary sword formation. Given Qin Sang some time to fully understand it, it's entirely possible for him to use it to surpass his level and kill his enemies.

However, there are inevitably some weaknesses at this time. Dealing with cultivators of the same rank is effortless, but it is easy to be seen through by higher-ranking cultivators.

Moreover, Dongyang Bo happened to possess the Qinglian Treasure Lantern, which was adept at suppressing sword formations.

Seeing the Sword Formation broken, Qin Sang quickly pinched the incantation. Eighteen Demon Staves appeared in the surrounding void, silently growing larger until they became three-zhang tall staffs.

The banners fluttered, and even before the magical fire was fully unleashed, the blood shadows trapped within the banner array began to writhe in agitation. They moved erratically, instinctively sensing the danger.

Then, the demonic fire surged outwards, and the blood shadows near the magic banner stiffened one after another before silently melting away.

Dongyang Bo used a bronze treasure lamp to lure Qin Sang into bleeding his divine light, and he also used the dragon and phoenix stone pillars to attack him. His divine sense remained firmly locked onto the surrounding area.

Although the Dragon and Phoenix Stone Pillars couldn't damage a sword of such high quality, even momentarily slowing it down was enough. It exposed the cracks in the sword formation as well.

When masters duel, they fight for a fleeting moment.

The flaw was caught by Dongyang Bo.

At this time, the Ebony Sword finally broke free from the Dragon and Phoenix Stone Pillar. However, Qin Sang was too late to mend the flaws or change the formation to stop Dongyang Bo.

Boom!

The Vajra Jewel surged forth with a blazing light, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, forcefully breaking through the sword formation's blockade.

For a moment, the sword formation scattered.

A wisp of blood light shone in from outside, very faint.

Without any action from Dongyang Bo, his figure appeared the next moment at a gap in the sword formation, seemingly about to successfully break through.

Just then, the ebony sword reappeared before him, jumping slightly and slashing down swiftly.

This is a simple translation example.

'Oh!'

This sword strike was once again blocked by the Vajra Jewel.

Seizing the opportunity, Dongyang Marquis's figure flashed, successfully breaking through the enemy lines.

Just as he exited the sword formation, Dongyang Bo was about to seize the talisman puppet, when he sensed something amiss. A path of black flames appeared before him, instantly burning away the surrounding blood mist and blood shadows, charging towards him.

Qin Sang knew his purpose and had set up the magic banner formation in advance. The demonic fire struck head-on!

Seeing these sights, Dongyang Bo's face darkened, but he remained calm.

He remembered Qin Sang had a set of flags, used only once on the battlefield, so information was incomplete. Some suspected they were based on the Kui Yin Ancestor's magic banner and even had two more than it.

Even if the Magic Banner truly possessed power comparable to the original, Dongyang Bo was confident he had the ability to protect himself. There was a realm difference between the two of them. If they continued fighting, Qin Sang would definitely be the first to exhaust his true energy.

Dongyang Bo simply didn't want to continue the struggle, and he wasn't worried about his safety.

But when he saw the surrounding scene, Dongyang Bo was shocked and dismayed.

Counting them carefully, after the fire sea, the Demon Banner fluctuated, there were not twelve poles, but eighteen poles!

Qin Sang had only been practicing with Ying for a few years, but the strength he had already displayed greatly surprised Dong Yang Bo. He didn't expect this to be anything close to his true potential.

Facing the eighteen Demon Flags, Dong Yang Bo's eyes showed no hint of ease. There was a sense of foreboding in his gaze.

"What a sight, the Ten Directions Hell Banner!"

Donghuang Bo had dealings with the ancient demon Kuiyin Ancestor, and knew the formidable power of his demon banner formation. Now Qin Sang held eight more banners than Kuiyin Ancestor did.

At this moment, it's no longer a question of whether we can take back the puppet!

The eighteen demon flags stood erect in the void, like eighteen wide mouths, continuously spewing out demonic fire.

Qin Sang controlled the demonic fire through the Fire Lotus.

Suddenly, a monstrous inferno erupted, its roar deafening. Wave after wave of fire surged towards Duke Dongyang.

Dongyang Bo's heart gave birth to a sense of foreboding. His eyes swept across the scene, and he felt himself falling into an endless sea of fire, with nowhere to escape. The golden cinnabar on his head rang coldly, its light being pushed back by the demonic flames, making it dim and flickering precariously.

Although the artifacts of the Patriarch Kui Yin are powerful, they have a flaw. These demonic fires are external objects and cannot be controlled as easily as one's own limbs. Against powerful opponents, they might be able to defeat them, but it would be difficult to kill them.

Dongyang Bo was surprisingly knowledgeable about the magic banner.

However, even with this shortcoming, when the number of magic staffs reaches eighteen poles, it undergoes a qualitative change and cannot be equated.

Dongyang Bo's heart raced, though he remained calm and collected. He reacted swiftly, realizing that if he didn't escape immediately, he would be consumed by the demonic fire and suffer an eternity of torment!

Immediately following, Dongyang Bo poured all his strength into activating the Vajra Jewel to protect his body. His figure flashed continuously, leaving only a white streak of light dashing through the void.

For a moment, the demonic flames were churned about wildly.

However, it was Dongyang Bo who knew the flaw in the Magic Banner Array. Standing still and fighting head-on would be disastrous. Qin Sang had to use the demonic fire to strangle him, because the demonic fire wasn't something Qin Sang had refined. The faster he moved, the more likely he was to expose a weakness.

Seeing this scene, Qin Sang's expression changed slightly.

Dongyang Bo's move truly hit his weak point. He was indeed a cunning old fox, seeing through the shortcomings of the large formation so quickly. However, he had the Fire Lotus Seed, using the tamed demonic fire as a bridge, which made him better than the former ancestor Kui Yin.

Qin Sang was unable to, sitting cross-legged in the void, pouring all his power into activating the Demonic Banner Formation. He dared not be distracted.

The Sky-Eyed Butterfly also revealed its form, standing on Qin Sang's shoulder. Its sky-colored eyes opened wide, intently staring at the formation.

Firstly, Dongyang Bo is not yet at his limit. His Thunder God Technique can't temporarily break through the Diamond Talisman defense. It's better to prepare the Heavenly Eye Divine Light and crack Dongyang Bo's spellcasting techniques at any time.

Secondly, Qin Sang needed to focus on operating her Heaven's Eye supernatural power to lock onto Dong Yang Bo, predicting his movements in advance.

The demonic fire raged, wildly charging toward the Vajra Jewel.

Only the sound of the Diamond Sutra's metal pieces clinking and echoing could be heard, sometimes bright, sometimes dim.

Donghuang Bo tried to repeat his old trick, using the dragon and phoenix stone pillars to smash the demonic fire again. Unfortunately, the demonic fire wasn't a physical entity and could disperse at will. Seeing that the treasure was useless, and he couldn't get close to the demonic banner himself, he had no choice but to put it away.

The Eighteen Demon Flags were indeed powerful. Dongyang Bo's true essence was consumed at an alarming rate, and he soon felt unable to maintain the Diamond Jewel. He couldn't help but feel anxious and desperate.

‘Whew!’

As the demonic flames drew near, Dongyang Bo felt his heart racing and his soul wavering from the impact. He hurriedly urged the Vajra Jewel to protect him, preventing the demonic fire from getting close. He then retrieved the bronze treasure lamp.

The treasure lamp was defiled.

But Dongyang Bo didn't hesitate, pouring all his true essence into it.

The forceful activation resulted in a 'crack' as the bronze lamp shattered. Cracks spread across its surface, and fragments fell away, leaving it destroyed.

However, the wick in the center of the treasure lamp was preserved, and it managed to burn a dim yellow light.

Donghyang Bo's face twitched, the pain was excruciating. This treasure was rare and precious, but to save his life, he had no choice but to do this.

Unexpectedly, the former pawn has driven him to this point.

The flickering flame can soothe the mind, but it is not enough to break free.
