Chapter 56: The Union of Swords and Knives

  Hiss!

  The three-eyed sand snake was attacked, although it was not seriously injured, but it was thoroughly enraged. It let out a terrifying hiss and suddenly rose up, its body stretching out of the sand pit was actually tens of meters long, with a diameter of one meter, like a frightening sand pillar, emitting a terrifying momentum.

  In the blink of an eye, part of this three-eyed sand snake's body had already stretched out of the sand pit for about 7 or 8 meters, its terrifying body making many people tremble with fear.

  Suddenly, this three-eyed sand snake opened its huge mouth, just like a real python, with an opening diameter of over ten meters.

  Hmph!

  A dreadful whistling sound came out of that huge mouth, a terrible quicksand burst forth, making a sound like the howling of wind and the screaming of cranes, sharp to the extreme. This mass of quicksand shot up into the sky, just like countless sharp swords.

  In the blink of an eye, this team of flying sand enveloped all the attackers, it was a full-range attack.

  Almost everyone was shocked, and they had never fought a real three-eyed sand snake before, only looked at some materials. The three-eyed sand beast has various forms, such as sand snakes, sand wolves, sand insects, sand scorpions, and so on, with different attack methods. Even if it's the same sand snake form, there may be different attack methods.

  The three-eyed sand snake in front of me is actually a range-based quicksand attack.

  Everyone hurriedly urged on their defensive spells, and the martial artist also propped up his true shield to resist the attack of the flowing sand with all his might.

  It was like a downpour of rain, the sand attack was dense to the extreme, shooting at various defense light shields, beating the shields flickering and shaking.

  This sand flow attack is extremely terrifying, continuous and unrelenting, with the volume of sand spewed out being as massive as that of a three-eyed sand snake.

  Ah!

  Finally, someone couldn't hold on and was struck by the dense quicksand, breaking through their protective shield. Without any resistance, they were beaten into a brush by the quicksand.

  Ahh...

  More and more people were unable to withstand being shot down by the flying sand filling the sky.

  After the quicksand had all fallen, four or five hundred people actually fell down in a heap of dozens. Although they were all the weakest cultivators, such heavy casualties still made one's heart chill. And this was just the first wave of attack by the Three-eyed Quicksand!

  Some people have already given up.

  Although treasures are precious and mouth-watering, one must have a life to obtain them.

  Even if you kill the three-eyed sand snake, you still have to go through a fierce battle to get the treasure, and the probability is even smaller.

  Wang Xuanyang saw the bloody scene and was also frightened out of his wits.

  It was also his first time seeing such a bloody scene.

  If he were there too, he would undoubtedly be shot into a brush by quicksand.

  Biting back the discomfort in his heart, he searched for the figures of the four Fat Masters among the crowd. Fortunately, they were all still alive, after all, they were close to being high-level Explosive Hole Symbols, and since they hadn't been directly attacked by the Three-eyed Sand Snake, they could still hold on.

  Look at the scene again.

  When the vast expanse of quicksand had passed, and the sky was just clearing up, the gigantic three-eyed sand snake opened its huge mouth and fiercely swallowed down in the direction of the Knife Sword Sect.

  Within tens of meters around, a huge mouth loomed, with an intimidating presence.

  In the previous attack, the person with the sword was the one who caused the most damage. Although the three-eyed sand snake didn't have much intelligence, it also had instincts and attacked the person who posed the greatest threat first.

  Looking at the huge sand snake mouth swallowing down, the people of Jianzong were not disturbed at all, their expressions excited, and their will to fight soaring.

  "Form the fabric, unite the sword and the blade!"

  The white-clothed young master who was at the forefront suddenly let out a low shout.

  In an instant, the surrounding swordsmen of the Symbol Sect suddenly gathered and moved in unison, seemingly following a peculiar rhythm, operating like a well-oiled machine.

  The knives or swords on their backs flew out one after another, swirling in the void, with sword energy wandering and knife light intersecting. Finally, under the guidance of a strange power, these knife energies and sword energies combined to form a strange virtual shadow. This shadow looked like a knife, but also like a sword, having the commonality of both.

  If someone looked closely, they would discover that the white-clothed young master surrounded by the many disciples of the Sword and Saber Sect emitted a faint holy light from his body, which grew stronger and more intense to the point where it could be seen even in broad daylight. This holy light condensed and spread out, forming a strange, pale halo. Inside this halo were incredibly complex talismanic patterns flashing about; these talismans seemed to have formed naturally and weren't some sort of artificial combination or evolution. As this halo dispersed along the surface of the flowing sand, it enveloped all of the Sword and Saber Sect's disciples.

  Under the halo's influence, all disciples of the Knife Sword Sect were suddenly shocked, their momentum surging violently, and the knife sword symbols they output also rapidly strengthened. The knife sword illusions seemed to have received some kind of intense amplification, becoming even more solid, with countless textures emerging on them.

  "Cut!"

  The white-clothed young master drank again, his hands forming a seal, his eyes like those of a divine spirit, exuding an intense and majestic aura.

  The entire sword array seemed to be centered around him, and as he manipulated it, the sword shadows shook violently, emitting a terrifying screech, colliding with the giant mouth of the sand snake that was swallowing downwards.

  Boom!

  That terrifying sand snake's giant mouth was actually blocked by the sword shadow, and even a terrible sharp edge pierced out from above the giant mouth, which happened to be an eye.

  Hiss!

  The three-eyed sand snake let out a mournful wail and its body suddenly rolled over.

  And that attacked eye suddenly formed a sand pit as big as a face basin, the eye had been pierced through.

  Even this damage has strongly interfered with Sha Jing's power supply to the Three-eyed Sand Snake.

  With just one strike, the three-eyed sand snake was severely injured.

  "Hiss, how is this possible? The Sword Unity Formation of the Knife and Sword Sect is so terrifying?"

  Whether they were participating in the attack or watching from a distance, almost everyone was shocked.

  They all heard of the Knife Sword Unification Formation, which is the town's formation of the Knife Sword Sect. A single disciple who practices both knife and sword can cast the simplest Knife Sword Unification Formation, while two disciples who practice different knife and sword paths can also join forces to cast it. The more people there are, the greater the power.

  But how can it be possible for just thirty or forty people to join forces and recreate something on the level of the Three-Eyed Snake?

  Isn't it said that just being a member of the Knife Sword Symbol Sect is enough to rely on this Knife Sword Unifying Formation to hunt down this three-eyed sand snake?

  At this moment, they had an even stronger fear of the Knife Sword Symbol Sect.

  With the power of Jian Feng's sword array, once it is unleashed, it can sweep across the entire arena!

  At this moment, the Jian Feng Zu Zong's Jiū Bù Míng let out a loud roar, "What are you waiting for? Attack! Our sword and knife combined attack is too consuming, it can only be used once in a short period of time, after that we won't be able to use it again. If we let the three-eyed sand snake recover, we'll be completely finished."

  Everyone suddenly came to their senses and also let out a sigh of relief. If the previous attack had allowed Jian Feng to continue attacking, it would have been too much. As for whether or not they should join forces to hunt down the Three-eyed Sand Snake, they would have to reconsider. After all, if they were to successfully hunt it down, with Jian Feng's strength, he could completely monopolize the treasure.

  Now that they knew the Sword and Knife Combination Formation had such a weakness, they felt more at ease.

  Then, many martial artists launched a frenzied attack, but their attacking power was far inferior to the sword and knife symbol of the Knife Sword Sect's sword and knife unifying symbol array.

  The three-eyed sand snake was severely injured, greatly reduced in strength and weakened, so more attacks fell on its other two eyes. This way, not only can the three-eyed sand snake be harmed, but also delay his recovery speed.

  With time, it's entirely possible to completely wear out the three-eyed sand snake.

  Even a weak Three-eyed Sand Snake is extremely terrifying, the spouted quicksand and the crazily impacting body will kill or heavily injure some warriors each time.

  The battle is getting more and more intense!
