Chapter 779: Half-Step Between Life and Death

for any force.Naturally, under such pressure, everyone was diligently cultivating."How do you cultivate"Hearing this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but interrupt Liu Peng's words.Liu Peng's face showed a lo..."What's wrong"

Jiang Yun's body suddenly stiffened, which naturally did not escape Hou Muran's notice. He opened his mouth and asked in a puzzled tone.

As he spoke, he also raised his head and, following Ginger Cloud's gaze, saw the small black fly. His expression immediately changed.

Whatever Ginger Cloud could think of, he could also think of.

But the next moment, Jiang Yun had already grabbed Hou Muran's shoulder with one hand, and pulled him hard, forcefully dragging him back towards the large formation behind them.

But just at this moment, a cold voice suddenly rang out from above the sky: "Where else do you think you can run to!"

The voice boomed like thunder, shattering the tiny black insect instantly and reducing it to a cloud of black smoke.

From within that black smoke, a gigantic hand reached out, grabbing straight at Ginger Cloud and Hou Mu-ran.

This hand emanates a bone-chilling cold, freezing everything it touches instantly into crystalline white.

Even Jiang Yun and Hou Muran were not spared. Their bodies too were covered in ice crystals, freezing them from the inside out, leaving them completely immobile.

And at this time, they were only half a step away from the large formation behind them!

This half-step is just like the boundary between life and death. Once you cross it, you live; if you can't cross it, you die!

Looking at the palm that was getting closer and closer, Jiang Yun let out a helpless sigh in his heart!

He naturally knew that this hand belonged to Yue Qing!

And right now, Yue Qing is also giving it his all!

Facing the full force of a master's palm strike, there was no way to block or dodge. All that remained was to wait for the palm to strike.

It's not just that I was caught, the only thing that worries Ginger Cloud is that Hou Mulan has been implicated.

If he wasn't standing shoulder to shoulder with him, leaving this formation together, that little fly probably wouldn't have drawn Yue Qing's attention just by seeing Hou Muran!

But it's too late to talk about these things now.

Just when Jiang Yun had given up resistance, he suddenly felt a faint power flowing into his body.

This power, though weak, was like a needle piercing a tiny hole in the countless ice crystals covering his dantian within.

A great wall of a thousand miles can be ruined by a single hole.

Although it was just an insignificant speck, it allowed Jiang Yun's frozen cultivation to loosen by a sliver!

Therefore, in the instant before that, all of his cultivation within him erupted instantaneously, shattering most of the ice crystals on his body with a momentum like crushing dry rot, finally allowing his body to move.

Gingercloud's palm tightened once more, and with a herculean effort, both she and Hou Muran managed to inch their bodies backward by half a step, falling back into the formation!

Outside the formation, Yue Qing's hand naturally grasped at empty air.

And this also caused Yue Qing's furious roar to echo through the sky once again: "Damn it!"

The next moment, Yue Qing's figure finally appeared in the sky, his eyes coldly staring at the large formation below.

At this moment, all Yue Qing could see in his eyes were countless rocks scattered haphazardly on the ground. He couldn't see Jiang Yun and Hou Muran's figures at all, nor could he sense their presence.

Hou Muran's grand formation was a brand new type he had devised after exchanging insights on formations with Xue Mu during his time in the Jinding Realm.

Being in the middle of the fray, even powerful blood demons who were being suppressed here could hide their true selves. How could Yue Qing possibly see through them

However, Yue Qing naturally also saw that there was an array formation beneath.

It can be even more certain that Jiang Yun is hiding within this formation. Therefore, his eyes gleaming with cold light, he directly sat cross-legged on top of countless rocks, using his divine sense to carefully examine this formation.

Meanwhile, inside the formation, Jiang Yun and Hou Muran, though their bodies had recovered enough to move, remained frozen in place, lying on the ground staring up at Yue Qing who was seated cross-legged in the sky.

Jiang Yun only felt that the back of his body was completely soaked with cold sweat.

Just then, I finally got a firsthand experience of what despair feels like!

But what he wanted to know even more was, from whom came that power that had saved him from despair!

Although not entirely sure, a vague guess had already begun to form in Ginger Cloud's mind.

Blood demon!

If he hadn't had that conversation with Hou Muran earlier, perhaps he wouldn't have thought of the Blood Demon.

But now that he knows this trial ground is where the Blood Demon is imprisoned, only the Blood Demon's actions can break free Yue Qing, a powerful cultivator of Dao.

Even, five days ago, Yue Qing's divine consciousness suddenly vanished from his own body, and it is highly likely that the blood demon secretly helped him.

However, Ginger Cloud didn't know why the Blood Demon was helping her.

At this moment, Hou Muran finally came to his senses and let out a long sigh. “Daoist Jiang, this is probably the reason why you were unwilling to travel with me, isn’t it”

Evidently, this brief experience with life and death allowed Hou Muran to finally understand Jiang Yun's concerns.

Ginger Yun Mian reluctantly nodded. “That’s right, I don't want to implicate my fellow cultivators, but it seems like I already have.”

"Is he a member of the Daoist temple"

"Well, the patrolman, it was he who sent me to the dungeon."

Then why is he here to kill you now

"Because when he grabbed me, I hurt him!"

Jiang Yun's answer caused Hou Mu to abruptly turn his head towards him, his face revealing a look of disbelief.

As a former disciple of the Zhending Sect, he naturally knew that the strength of those who could become patrol officers of the Dao Shen Dian was at least in the Dao Nature Realm.

...and could injure the Daoist realm, then Ginger Cloud's strength...

"My strength is not as high as you imagine, I'm only at the Lingjing realm. It was just a lucky coincidence, plus I made many preparations, that I managed to wound him. However, in the end, he still sent me to the Dao Prison."

Although Ginger Cloud spoke lightly, Hou Muran knew this was her humble words.

Don't even say that Jiang Yun is only at the Ling Jing realm, even among those in the Tian You realm, I've never heard of anyone who could luckily injure a Dao Xing realm expert.

Hou Muran shook his head and stopped asking about Jiang Yun's strength. Instead, he asked, "What do we do now"

"If your formation is broken by brute force, how long can it hold"

“Though his strength is high, he has definitely not reached the Daoist realm. He should be like you and me, with his cultivation suppressed.”

"At most, he only has the strength of the late Heaven's Blessing realm. Even if he attacks this formation with all his might, this formation can at least withstand half an hour."

I have to say, Hou Muran's analytical ability is also quite impressive. He deduced these circumstances based solely on Yue Qing's single move.

"Half an hour!" Jiang Yun turned over and stood up, his brows furrowed.

Although there was a half hour buffer, it was still impossible to escape from Yue Qing's grasp.

As for going out and fighting Yue Qing, even with Hou Muren's assistance, the two of them had no chance of winning whatsoever. Therefore, their current situation remains desperate.

Just as Jiang Yun's words fell, Yue Qing in the sky suddenly stood up.

His eyes shone with a brilliant light, and suddenly he lifted his foot, stamping heavily on the ground below.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed, and a colossal fissure ripped open the earth, spreading wildly toward the countless rocks.

Evidently, Yue Qing has already begun to directly break through the formation with his powerful cultivation.

First published on Traditional Novels Network to dwell on these problems. He rolled over and sat up, glancing around. It was pitch black, like being in a cellar, which made him frown and ask, "Where is this How long have I been unconscious"Zheng...
