My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

Four from the Thousand Spirit Sect, six from the Hidden Spirit Sect.

As the poison circle narrowed, all that remained was an expanse of empty space a hundred feet in square.

Three of the Thousand Spirit Sect disciples huddled together, searching for their last ally.

“Senior Brother Xie Peng, come out. Let’s take a stand against the few from the Hidden Spirit Sect at the end,” said one of them.

“We may lose the battle but we must not lose our formation!” Another disciple from the Thousand Spirit Sect cried out.

The remaining six Hidden Spirit Sect disciples patiently waited for the final battle in the distance.

The destructive methods regularly employed in the Great Escape Killing Game had been lessened due to the participation of the Thousand Spirit Sect disciples. The Hidden Spirit Sect disciples had also become more restrained.

In the past, other than Xiong Li, no one dared to stand boldly in the final circle.

The disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect were aware that the Thousand Spirit Sect had an alliance with their own. Thus, they would naturally act courteously towards the disciples of the Thousand Spirit Sect.

Of course, this did not apply to Xu LingTai.

By now, it was well-known among the first-generation disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect that Xu LingTai used the Immortal Court Banquet against Xie Peng, one of the top ten disciples of the Thousand Spirit Sect.

Even though they had promised to keep it a secret, they were unable to refrain from discussing it amongst themselves.

The topic of the Immortal Court Banquet was often brought up when the disciples of the Thousand Spirit Sect first came to the Hidden Spirit Sect. It was frequently top of conversation.

This resulted in Xu LingTai receiving many strange looks within the sect.

One of the Thousand Spirit Sect disciples repeatedly called out for Xie Peng, but he did not appear.

“Could it be that Senior Brother Xie has already been eliminated?” The Thousand Spirit Sect disciple said dejectedly.

“Alright, since Senior Brother Xie has not made it to the final circle, the three of us must now uphold the reputation of the Thousand Spirit Sect.”

“We may lose the battle but we must not lose our formation. We have to bring out all of our strength.” Another disciple from the Thousand Spirit Sect said.

“Brothers of the Hidden Spirit Sect, do you plan to join forces or fight one-on-one?” The disciple from the Thousand Spirit Sect shouted.

“Best two out of three. If you win, we are willing to admit defeat.”

“You can pick your opponents.” Xiong Li told the three disciples from the Thousand Spirit Sect.

Xie Peng, who was hiding in the dark, could only apologize to the three disciples.

“I’m sorry, brothers. I have to win this round,” Xie Peng said firmly.

The three Thousand Spirit Sect disciples boldly picked the three strongest disciples from the Hidden Spirit Sect to fight.

Xiong Li, Xu LingTai, and Xiang Yun.

Unsurprisingly, like ants trying to shake a tree, the Hidden Spirit Sect won easily.

“As expected from one of the top sects, you certainly have the right bearing,” Xiong Li commented in praise.

“Okay, it’s time for the inter-sect competition.”

“Do you know better, or do I need to knock you out of here?”

As Xiong Li said this, two Sounding Gold Giant Hammers appeared in his hands.

“Senior Brother, you’re striking such a cool pose, but using such haughty words. Be careful, Senior Brother LingTai might use ‘the big move,’” said a disciple who was hiding behind a puppet.

Xiong Li’s complexion slightly changes. To be honest, even he was genuinely afraid of that move.

“Soldier, how dare you besmirch my innocence?”

“I’m committed to Senior Brother Xiong Li. Why would I use such a strategy?” Xu LingTai quickly retorted. He was also using hints to imply that the people present should not bring up this topic again.

If Xie Peng was also here, he would surely be done for.

“To the remaining Junior Fellow, you can come out now.”

“Let’s eliminate Senior Brother Xiong Li first, then fight amongst ourselves for the title of number one,” The puppet hiding Soldier proposed loudly to those around him.

The remaining disciples of the Hidden Spirit Sect also waited for that secret Junior Fellow to appear.

There was still no movement after a long time.

“Shadow Sting? Heaven’s Treasure? Transforming Sand?” Qian Ling shouted the names of those old and sinister fellows, but nothing worked.

“There’s nothing we can do if they’re refusing to come out. Time waits for no one, so you all attack together.”

With that, Xiong Li swung his Sounding Gold Giant Hammer, causing a shockwave of sound ripples to spread outwards.

“Well, fine. When I get out, I’ll definitely take a look at which old Yin~”

Qian Ling commanded his puppets to launch a full-on attack on Xiong Li.

Following that, sword arrays, sword light, Five Elements Divine Techniques, and Defense Tower Attacks came one after another.

Faced with this overwhelming attack, Xiong Li only paid attention to Xiang Yun’s sword array before starting his own killing spree.

For a while, the earth was shaking and the sky was falling. The ground was full of large pits caused by Xiong Li’s Giant Hammer.

Hiding in the dark, Xie Peng was shocked as he watched this scene. Was this the strength of the Senior Brother of the Hidden Spirit Sect?

He watched as his fellow disciple from the Spirit platform was killed by a hammer blow from afar. The narrow battle environment was extremely unfavorable for Xu LingTai.

Xiong Li then easily eliminated the remaining disciples.

Now in the Great Escape Killing world, the area in which they could move was only about thirty feet, and only Xiong Li and Xie Peng were left.

“Junior Fellow hiding in the dark, come out.”

“Even if the poison circle shrinks to the end, I can hold on longer than you,” Xiong Li said as he put away his Giant Hammer.

At this moment, Xie Peng remained unmoved underground.

“Still not willing to come out?”

At this moment, the area where they could move in the Great Escape Killing world had shrunk to about nine feet.

Only then did Xie Peng slowly show his face.

“The Thousand Spirit Sect, Xie Peng?” Xiong Li said, having seen Xie Peng a few times before.

“Fellow Daoist Xiong Li, I want to win this Great Escape Killing Game, could you let me pass?” Xie Peng said while looking at Xiong Li.

“That’s something you’ll have to prove with your own strength. I can’t let you pass so easily,” said Xiong Li as he silently picked up his Giant Hammer from the ground.

“Then, Brother Xiong Li, please don’t blame me,” said Xie Peng, his eyes focused. If it were someone else, he might have a chance of winning.

But facing Xiong Li, he really doesn’t have any hopes.

Although he couldn’t face him directly, he still had a way to make Xiong Li back down.

Xiong Li raised his Giant Hammer and looked at Xie Peng, smiling, “Go ahead, brother, I won’t blame you.”

Just then, several layers of Divine Protection Shields appeared around Xie Peng, and he began to make hand gestures.

Xie Peng’s hand gestures weren’t fast, slow enough that even Xiong Li could see what kind of Divine Abilities he wanted to use clearly?

Xiong Li’s face slightly changed, and without hesitation, he swung his Giant Hammer towards Xie Peng.

Boom

Several layers of protective shields barely blocked Xiong Li’s strike.

Xie Peng continued to form the hand gestures unhurriedly, deliberately giving Xiong Li time to make a choice.

“You’re being excessive, Fellow Daoist,” said Xiong Li, looking at Xie Peng.

“I know the unwritten rule of your Hidden Spirit Sect, which forbids using such Divine Abilities. But this time, I camped till the end just to take the first place. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Xiong Li can let me pass,” Xie Peng formed the hand gestures unhurriedly.

The expression on Xiong Li’s face was quite interesting. He looked at Xie Peng for a long time before slowly saying, “Let’s say I’m repaying you on behalf of LingTai.”

Xiong Li’s words left Xie Peng somewhat confused, but seeing Xiong Li’s figure slowly dissipating, he knew he won this time.

Although it was somewhat disgraceful, he was indeed the first.

“Hahaha, interesting, very interesting~” Xu Fan, who was watching the live broadcast, said with a big laugh.

His own disciple’s created Divine Abilities were actually being used by foreigners to gain an advantage.
