#746 - Chapter 746 Various Connections

In the Otherworld, the Formation of Absolute Severance was complete, having already steadily passed through two checkpoints.

With seventy-nine more checkpoints, this Formation of Absolute Severance would be secure. From then on, this Otherworld would appear in the eyes of the world as an affiliated world of the Immortal Realm.

Ye Ling even had plans. If this Formation of Absolute Severance succeeded and she was still alive, she would go to Ye Kong to claim credit.

She couldn't work for nothing, could she?

"Everyone, hold on! We have already secured two checkpoints. The Formation of Absolute Severance will be completed soon."

"When that time comes, all of you will be rewarded for your contributions by this seat!"

Seeing hesitation on the faces of some of the lower-level individuals, Ye Ling spoke immediately.

"Yes, Lord Ling! We wouldn't dare to slack off. Rest assured!"

Upon hearing Ye Ling's words, the crowd responded hurriedly.

Just then, the lotus-green rainbow that had appeared in the void as the Formation of Absolute Severance took shape suddenly broke in the middle, as if it could snap at any moment.

Yun He and Du, who were at the center of the formation's eye, clearly felt the pressure.

The pressure felt as if they were about to be torn apart.

"What's going on? I can't hold on any longer."

Yun's brow furrowed tightly, his body bent into the shape of a shrimp, panting heavily.

The other Great Emperors were in even worse shape, clearly reaching the limit of their strength.

Even Ye Ling's beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together, but she couldn't do anything about it now.

This Formation of Absolute Severance absolutely could not be stopped now.

If they stopped now, all eight thousand one hundred of them would die.

"Hold on! Otherwise, we will all die! Think of your families and descendants; they are all waiting for you!"

At this critical moment, Ye Ling shouted directly, boosting the morale of the crowd.

Seeing the unstable formation core, Xuan knew that things were not good and shouted loudly.

"Do what you are supposed to do. Don't come here!"

Seeing Xuan wanting to come over, Ye Ling immediately shouted coldly.

If Xuan came, it would not only be unhelpful but would also complicate matters and cost innocent lives.

Xuan did not do as Ye Ling said. He had seen this Formation of Absolute Severance when he was following Hong.

Even when Hong set it up, it was considered a near-death experience. Half of the people didn't make it back alive.

If Lord Ling couldn't withdraw at this moment, she would lose her only chance to escape.

Once it failed, Lord Ling's fate would be tied to the entire formation, her death a hundred times more miserable than an ordinary person's.

"No, Lord Ling, you must come out quickly. Your subordinate will take your place. I have seen this formation before, and I can help at critical moments!"

Xuan guarded the entire formation, refusing to leave.

Seeing this, Ye Ling roared directly, "Do you want us all to be buried with you? Go find Ye Kong!"

Seeing Ye Ling angry, Xuan could only bid her farewell with tears in his eyes, using the fastest speed of his life to go to the Immortal Realm to seek Ye Kong's help.

逍遥 Peak, Ye Kong had now arrived in Xiaoshan's room.

"What's going on? Xiaoshan was fine when he came back. How did he become like this in such a short time?"

Ye Kong asked, looking at Xiaoshan, whose face was flushed red and unconscious.

Ye Xiaoyao, who was beside him, stood up and said, "Master, Xiaoshan was fine last night. It was just half an hour ago that his strength suddenly soared."

"He went straight from the late stage of Qi Refining to the late stage of Golden Core."

"We were all very happy to see Xiaoshan's strength soar. However, Xiaoshan suddenly fell to the ground and became like what Master sees now."

Ye Xiaoyao told Ye Kong all the details of the matter and the causes and consequences as comprehensively as possible.

Upon hearing this, Ye Kong immediately thought of the purple-clothed man who had appeared before.

This purple-clothed man appeared precisely when he had just arrived at the edge of the Bitter Sea.

Moreover, the purple-clothed man's intriguing expression when he mentioned Xiaoshan, and the coincidence of Xiaoshan's accident happening half an hour ago, made it extremely terrifying.

After Ye Kong finished thinking, his face immediately darkened.

"Not good, we have fallen for the purple-clothed man's scheme to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

"Ye Xiaoyao, you must watch Xiaoshan carefully and never let him leave this room. Remember, remember."

After Ye Kong understood, he dared not be careless and said to Ye Xiaoyao.

Ye Xiaoyao obviously hadn't understood what had happened.

However, he always followed Ye Kong's lead, so although he didn't understand what had happened, he still nodded heavily.

"Master, don't worry. I will watch Xiaoshan."

Ye Kong nodded, then hurried to the edge of the Bitter Sea.

Before even reaching the Bitter Sea, Ye Kong smelled a bloody scent in the air from afar.

The bloody scent was very strong, causing Ye Kong's expression to change drastically, and he instantly quickened his pace.

At the edge of the Bitter Sea, there were traces of a recent fight.

The purple-clothed man was gone, Lin Yaoyao was lying in a pool of blood, and even Xiao Hei was lying on the ground with his legs in the air, unable to move.

"Lin Yaoyao, what happened?"

Seeing this scene, Ye Kong was immediately furious.

Hearing Ye Kong's voice, Lin Yaoyao struggled to squeeze out a sentence.

"Master, he was pretending… He ran away after injuring us…"

After struggling to say this sentence, Lin Yaoyao's body went limp, and she fainted again.

"System, what is the origin of the purple-clothed man from just now?"

Ye Kong was furious and directly called out to the system.

Upon hearing this, the system panel jumped.

A picture instantly appeared in Ye Kong's mind.

Lin Yaoyao prepared to imprison the purple-clothed man on Peach Mountain, so she pierced the purple-clothed man's pipa bone with a soft sword, and Xiao Hei enlarged his body to pull the purple-clothed man in front.

She guarded the rear, observing the surrounding movements.

The purple-clothed man's weak and unbearable appearance instantly confused Lin Yaoyao and Xiao Hei, and they naturally felt that the purple-clothed man had no resistance.

However, they didn't expect a gust of black wind to rise midway, and Lin Yaoyao and Xiao Hei couldn't see anything in front of them.

Taking advantage of the darkness in front of Lin Yaoyao and Xiao Hei, the purple-clothed man suddenly burst out.

He used some kind of magic to break free from the soft sword piercing his pipa bone, and then threw a large amount of medicinal powder into the air with lightning speed.

As soon as the medicinal powder took effect, Lin Yaoyao instantly felt weak all over, and even Xiao Hei went limp to the side.

Seeing this, the purple-clothed man used a demon subduing pestle to seriously injure Lin Yaoyao and Xiao Hei, who could not fight back, and turned to flee.

At the moment when the purple-clothed man turned to flee, Lin Yaoyao pulled off the purple-clothed man's face with all her strength.

The face inside was exactly the same as Xiaoshan's.

To be precise, it was exactly the same as Xiaoshan's appearance after he grew up.

The system's picture stopped here.

Now all the fingers pointed to Xiaoshan.

Who exactly is the purple-clothed man to Xiaoshan? Is the Xiaoshan who came back from the Otherworld still the original Xiaoshan?

Layers upon layers of questions hit Ye Kong's heart.
