The first slash came from within the pyramid, and it was actually the remaining force of the tiger-shaped saber glare.
The second slash sent out Ye Gucheng, who was covered in wounds.
Happy might have used all his strength to block the third slash, the remaining force from the slash still blew at the people outside so strongly that they could not stand straight. They had to rely on the others to help them before they were able to stand firmly on the stone stairs.
Before they could even think that the danger was over, Happy’s expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were trained on the tunnel once more. His gaze was intense.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The fierce sound of air being torn rose. Their robes fluttered. It was as if something had been kicked out, and it was not just one person.

Ten Thousand Years, save them!

He shouted loudly, and Happy rushed to the entrance of the tunnel without hesitation.
A black figure was sent flying out of the tunnel at an astonishing speed.
The tunnel was now close to him. But this time, Happy did not choose to attack whoever was inside. Instead, he reached behind him and grabbed the black figure that shot past him.

Happy?

Osaya’s familiar voice rose beside Happy’s ear. Her magnetic voice was now a little hoarse.
Happy could not care about the details right now. He used Dragon Capture and easily captured Osaya’s body. He spun in the air and negated the powerful inertia that came from Osaya’s body.
Thousand-faced Human Fox was behind him, but he did not dare to save the others in such an exaggerated fashion as Happy did.
The people in the pyramid were all in the dao of heaven. One of them was Dongfang Bubai, and there were also people like Evil King and Empress Yin among them. None of them were people where he could just open his arms to save them.
Thousand-faced Human Fox focused and steadily delivered a few gusts with his palms.
The gusts were like invisible barriers in the air. All those who were a little skilled would be able to use those spontaneously delivered gusts to return to the pyramid and avoid dying in the mercury moat.
But what surprised all of them was that the second black shadow who shot out of the pyramid did not move even when he faced Thousand-faced Human Fox’s good will. He seemed to be covered in blood and broke through the barriers Thousand-faced Human Fox left in the air. Just like that, he was sent flying dozens of feet away from the pyramid under everyone’s dumbfounded gazes. Then, he fell down.

That’s…

Many people could not believe their eyes.
Even though the person had only appeared for a moment and flew past them very quickly, they were still able to recognize that person’s clothes. It was clear that he was among those in the dao of heaven.
Ye Gucheng held his sword in one hand and stared at the black shadow who fell into the mercury moat. He was filled with shock. He redirected his gaze, and when he looked into the tunnel, his gaze was filled with fury and wariness. He spoke clearly,
Martial Paragon Bi Xuan was already injured badly. I didn’t think that the alliance master would choose not to spare him in the end.

Thud!
Right when he finished speaking, the legendary figure of the Turks and a martial artist in the dao of heaven fell into the mercury moat in a lifeless heap. As they watched, their eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
Even if he was so powerful, he still could not avoid becoming part of the souls who ended up wandering the desert palace. They could not help but sigh.
Martial Paragon Bi Xuan died just like that!
Happy and the others had their expressions change out of fear.
Among the people who were One with the World, the alliance master of Heaven and Earth Alliance was the strongest, and Martial Paragon Bi Xuan was the second strongest. The difference in strength between them was not big…
Martial Paragon Bi Xuan had died really quickly in the alliance master’s hands. Osaya and Ye Gucheng were also badly injured, and they were also in the dao of heaven. If this was all caused by the alliance master of Heaven and Earth Alliance himself, this could only mean that the alliance master’s strength had reached an incredibly terrifying degree.
When he thought about this in-depth, even Happy felt helpless about the situation. While he held Osaya in his arms, he frowned.
With his current strength, at most, he could only fight only those in the dao of heaven. Even so, he could not remain undefeated when he faced the alliance master of the past. Right now, even Happy did not quite know what he should do if he had to face the current alliance master, because his strength had increased, and he also had the ancient catastrophic item, Tiger Soul.

How did you manage to cross the mercury moat?

It was at this moment that Ye Gucheng turned to Happy.

The alliance master is currently still fighting against Dongfang Bubai, Evil King, and Empress Yin, but they’re all injured. It’s only a matter of time before they’re defeated. You can still make it in time if you leave now.

Once he said those words, the group fell silent once more.
This was Ye Gucheng, someone in the dao of people, and he had begun to fear the master of Heaven and Earth Alliance. He was actually thinking about leaving the place.
But that was only to be expected.
Ye Gucheng’s current state was not that much stronger than a normal martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm. Clearly, he no longer had the strength to fly across the mercury moat, much less fight against the alliance master.

Even if you leave this place, where can you go, City Master Ye?

The old zither player sat on the stone stairs and smiled in anguish in Ye Gucheng’s direction.
From the moment we entered the desert palace, we cannot go back from where we came.


…

Ye Gucheng smiled in anguish.
Mister Zither Player, you’re right. The desert palace is a place used to seal the strongest catastrophic item, there’s no way the person will let us leave the desert with Tiger Soul. Heh… I didn’t expect that I would lose my composure one day.

Once he finished speaking, he no longer said anything else. Instead, he just pressed down on his sword and sat down.
The old zither player’s zither was destroyed.
Ye Gucheng’s arm was badly hurt, and his strength largely compromised. These two people sat facing each other, and they looked like martial artists in the dao of heaven running into a dead end and were discouraged.
When he thought of the heavily injured person in his arms, Happy’s heart tensed up. Then, he lowered his head to check Osaya’s condition.
She had a frown on her face. Blood covered her mouth, and her face was pale. She seemed to be in a bad condition.
He sent his qi into her body and circulated it through Osaya’s body. Happy quickly noticed that Osaya’s organs were trembling slightly. Her organs were damaged, and she was hurt even worse compared to Ye Gucheng and the old zither player. In fact, she could not struggle up and return to fight.
This was bad.
Happy thought that once he got the old zither player to his side, he would have two people in the dao of heaven helping him, and with Thousand-faced Human Fox providing him support from the side, his chances of getting the treasures in the desert palace would be much higher than anyone else.
He did not think that the situation would worsen to this state.
The old zither player’s old zither was destroyed by Tiger Soul’s saber glare. Osaya and the old zither player were both badly hurt. Right now, the only ones who were useful were the old zither player’s subordinates. But they also needed to take care of the injured.
The situation was bad for him.
Happy sighed.
This bit of strength was definitely not enough for him to fight against the alliance master of Heaven and Earth Alliance.
At that moment, an angry and pained cry traveled vaguely out of the tunnel in the pyramid.
That voice seemed to have come from…

It’s Master!


No!

Wan Wan and Hou Xibai had been waiting by the side quietly, and they never said a single word. Their expressions changed. Without another word, they resolutely headed into the pyramid.
Happy could also tell that the people who were injured in the pyramid were Evil King and Empress Yin. He frowned, but he did not immediately follow Wan Wan and Hou Xibai into the pyramid.
Happy could not even guarantee his own safety before the alliance master. Naturally, he would not go and recklessly act as Wan Wan and Hou Xibai’s protector just for his promise with Evil King and Empress Yin.
However, it was not the time for him to sit by and wait for his death either. He had to do something!

City Master Ye!

With this thought in mind, Happy handed Osaya over to Thousand-faced Human Fox so that he could take care of her. Meanwhile, he turned his head around to look at Ye Gucheng. His voice was solemn.
What is going on inside?

Ye Guchen was currently sitting cross-legged while he circulated his qi cultivation technique to heal his wounds. When he heard those words, he opened his eyes and looked over.
I know what you’re thinking about, Young Swordsman Happy. But I’d advise that you don’t go inside. After the three of us are injured, Evil King and Empress Yin arrived. Then, Osaya came by as well. The six of us worked together to fight against the alliance master, but unfortunately, the pyramid is narrow, and it could coincidentally allow Tiger Soul to bring out its full might. All six of us suffered great losses, and we had to be heavily injured before we could injure the alliance master. Right now, Evil King and Empress Yin will have a hard time breaking free as well. If you go in, you’ll just be dying in vain.


That’s not necessarily true.

When Happy heard that the six people in the dao of heaven had actually worked together to fight against the alliance master but not being able to gain anything, he immediately had his mind start thinking.
In anycase, even if he stayed here right now, he would just be waiting for his own death.
So instead of wasting his time and waiting for the alliance master to kill everyone before putting Tiger Soul against his neck, it would be better to go inside and fight while Evil King, Empress Yin and Dongfang Bubai could still fight.

Mister Zither Player, I’ll have to ask you to take care of Ten Thousand Years and Osaya.


Don’t worry, I owe you too much. Even though I can’t go in with you, I will have no problem in watching over them for you, unless, of course, I am dead.

The old zither player could already tell that Happy wanted to go into the pyramid. He stared at Happy with a face full of guilt. Then, with a solemn expression, he made a promise to Happy.
With the old zither player taking care of Thousand-faced Human Fox and Osaya, Happy instantly found himself without any worry anymore.
Right when he was about to enter the pyramid’s tunnel, Thousand-faced
Human Fox spoke,
Master, you should bring me with you.


No, it’s too dangerous in there.
Happy denied his request without hesitation.
This follower of his was in the later stage of Myth Realm and a divine thief who had understood the Amazing Log of the Seas and Mountains. Happy valued him greatly, and he did not want Thousand-faced Human Fox to die inside. Even if there was only a sliver of a chance that Thousand-faced Human Fox might run into danger, he did not want the thief to face it.
Thousand-faced Human Fox was naturally incredibly touched.
However, Thousand-faced Human Fox only sounded even more certain.

Master, even if I stay outside, if we don’t find the exit, we will still die here in the end. It’s better if I take the risk to go into the pyramid. I might be able to find a trap that will allow us to leave this place.

When he said this, Thousand-faced Human Fox added,
If I really don’t find anything, I will get out as soon as possible.


Young Master Happy, you have a really loyal servant. I do envy you.
Ye Gucheng smiled by the side.
The old zither player nodded slowly.
Happy thought about it. With his strength, if he used Full Wind in Long Skies together with the Dragon Swings Its Tail, he could pose as some form of threat to the alliance master. He could fight for some time Thousand-faced Human Fox, so he gritted his teeth and agreed to it.

Alright, but remember this. If you don’t find anything, get out immediately!


Understood!

Thousand-faced Human Fox nodded excitedly.
Happy no longer wasted his breath. He held Heaven Crystal and went into the pyramid like a phantom.
Whoosh!
The tunnel at the top of the pyramid was no more than sixteen feet deep. Then, his feet landed on nothing, and he fell.
Happy did not panic. His spirit sense spread out, and he quickly understood the situation in the pyramid.
His expression changed.

Haha! Another person has come here to die!

A mighty, loud, and crazed laughter rose. The saber glare from Tiger Soul shot up. The snow-white saber glare traveled up until it almost reached the sky, and it looked like it wanted to split Happy and the pyramid in half!
