Chapter 1606 1582: Advancing by Retreating

"Vermilion Bird's Crimson Flames!"

The offensive of the Evil Qilin did not end with Tianming being blasted into the sky and losing the ability to fight. After sending Tianming flying, he immediately conjured a ball of evil energy and stuffed it into his mouth!

As he opened his mouth again, the evil flames burned through the heavens!

"Retreat immediately!"

Ye Huan's face changed dramatically as he shouted!

He led everyone to retreat explosively over a hundred meters away!

However, some leaders of the ancient martial forces did not manage to retreat successfully; they reacted a bit slowly!

The cost was extremely painful!

These slower-reacting leaders of the ancient martial forces let out screams of agony as their bodies were burned by the evil flames, almost instantly turning into ashes in the air!

Seeing the black ashes scattered in the air, almost everyone present had a deep fear in their eyes!

The Evil Qilin truly lives up to being the Saint Master of the Evil Martial Sacred Land, the strongest Evil Martial Artist in the world!

Even trapped in the World-Suppressing Cage, he can still perform incredibly powerful Evil Martial Forbidden Techniques!

Moreover, the Evil Qilin was using the strongest Evil Martial Forbidden Techniques mastered by the Hall Masters of the other four halls!

Those Hall Masters would not use such evil forbidden techniques unless it's absolutely necessary, as their lethality is immense but their side effects are equally strong.

After using them, their power becomes extremely depleted!

Yet, the Evil Qilin executed them without any hesitation, unleashing four consecutive deadly moves in just a few seconds!

The tremendous strength was evident!

For a moment, both sides formed a sort of stalemate.

No one dared to approach the Evil Qilin or launch an attack on him casually.

In their eyes, the Evil Qilin was nearly an undefeatable formidable existence!

"Ye Huan, Divine Traceless, do you vile beings intend to wipe me out completely? I haven't done anything to you. I urge you to release me quickly, otherwise, if you're bent on killing me, I will resist desperately to show you the consequences!"

The Evil Qilin clutched the golden bars tightly, shaking them several times before roaring, "Leave some room now, meet again in better terms later. Your lineup is indeed strong; you can indeed take me down, but believe me, with my strength, making you pay a tremendously painful price is no problem at all!"

As soon as he said this, everyone's expressions turned unpleasant.

There's no denying that the Evil Qilin's words were completely justified.

The strength of the Evil Qilin was witnessed by all in the brief encounters earlier.

Today, the Rebel Army indeed had the chance to send the Evil Qilin to Hell, but it would certainly involve a heavy price!

Among the two hundred Extreme Divine Kings present, at least half would have to be sacrificed!

This would severely weaken the overall strength of the Endless Deep Mountains!

This was practically unacceptable!

If the Six Ultimate Guardians went all out, annihilating the Evil Qilin would be a matter of moments, but there were simply too many people around and the Evil Qilin possessed large-scale destructive Evil Martial Forbidden Techniques!

If the Six Ultimate Guardians personally intervened, the World-Suppressing Cage trapping the Evil Qilin couldn't continue to operate!

The Evil Qilin would escape and slaughter indiscriminately. Even if the Six Ultimate Guardians could eventually subdue the Evil Qilin, he would still inflict devastating attacks and harm on ordinary people and the Rebel Army present before his death!

It was virtually a deadlock!

"Divine Traceless, you've done enough, we are all Huaxia people, why make things difficult for each other! Although I, the Evil Qilin, did many things wrong to the Huaxia people in the past, I already recognize my mistakes and have paid a huge price!"

"The Evil Martial Sacred Land I built with my own hands has completely vanished into smoke, the five halls have all been destroyed except for me!"

"I've already paid such a huge price, why are you still making things difficult for me?"

"You've done enough, stop now!"

Inside the World-Suppressing Cage, the Evil Qilin shook the brilliant golden cage, trying to negotiate verbally with the Rebel Army!

In general, the stronger one's ancient martial power, the more effort they've put into the path of Ancient Martial Arts. The Evil Qilin spent over two hundred years, countless efforts, and paid innumerable prices to become today's half-step Martial Saint level Evil Martial Artist.

How could the Evil Qilin not cherish his life?

The Evil Qilin could indeed inflict serious damage on the Ancient Martial Union, but in truth, he didn't wish to reach that stage!

He hopes more to leave the Endless Deep Mountains!

As long as there are green hills left, there's no fear of lacking firewood!

"Alright!"

Contrary to expectations, Ye Huan agreed!

"Evil Qilin, seeing your current state, you seem to understand your mistakes!"

"Thus, seeing your sincere heart, it's likely you'll correct your mistakes in the future and start anew!"

"As the saying goes, put down the butcher's knife and instantaneously become a Buddha. Since you have this heart, we shall not make things difficult for you!"

As soon as Ye Huan spoke, the entire scene erupted!

Even the Evil Qilin was momentarily stunned!

"Alright! Alright! Thank you, Brother Ye Huan, thank you, Brother Ye Huan!" The Evil Qilin, after coming to his senses, repeatedly thanked Ye Huan excitedly, feeling a joy of escaping a dire situation!

The young generation of ancient martial artists in the Rebel Army angrily cursed at Ye Huan: "Ye Huan, you bastard, you brought us here to eradicate the Evil Martial Sacred Land, we suffered such heavy losses and paid such a price, yet you let the head of the Evil Martial Sacred Land go?"

"Ye Huan, you're such a coward, the Saint Master of the Evil Martial Sacred Land is indeed strong, but so what? We could have seized this opportunity to exterminate the Evil Qilin, but you issued such a foolish order and let the Evil Qilin escape?"

"Bah! Ye Huan, you're a wimp and a loser. How can we eradicate the Evil Martial Sacred Land together with such a worm like you?"

"Ye Huan, just go and die already! We barely fought, and you're already surrendering. You're truly disgracing us ancient martial artists of the Endless Deep Mountains!"

The young generation of ancient martial artists seized the opportunity to vehemently criticize Ye Huan, virtually cursing Ye Huan relentlessly, severely.

Others also harshly criticized Ye Huan, not understanding why he surrendered!

But with their foolishness, how could they comprehend Ye Huan's strategic intention of "retreat to advance"?!
