Chapter 1515
A noise echoed throughout the underground palace.
“What’s that noise?”
Distraught, everyone scanned their surroundings.
At that moment, tiny holes appeared on the steel plates. Then, a strange and unpleasant odorpermeated the air.
James’ face darkened as he yelled, “Hold your breath, everyone! This is poisonous gas!”novelbin
Everyone held their breaths.
Soon, the poisonous gas filled the entire underground palace.
Swish!
An arrow was fired.
James raised his hand and slashed the Blade of Justice in his hand, which accurately slashed theincoming arrow into two.
Swish!
One arrow… Two arrows… Ten arrows…
More and more arrows were fired from all sides.
The trapped martial artists pulled out their swords and deflected the arrows. Although the arrows werefired at great speed, they managed to react in time and dodge the arrows. So, the arrows could not
deal any effective damage to them.
However, at that moment, a tiny steel wire suddenly came from nowhere. Then, steel wires beganstriking the martial artists from all sides at great speeds.
Unable to dodge in time, a martial artist’s arm was severed.
“Damn it!’ James cursed.
Then, he raised the Blade of Justice and performed the Thirteen Heavenly Swords to their perfection.Thirteen waves of Sword Energy sliced at the steel wires. However, the steel wires seemed to be madeof extremely solid material. Not even the Sword Energy of James’ Thirteen Heavenly Swords couldslice them.
In just a short amount of time, the ancient martial artists who came along with James began sufferinggreat casualties.
In a room in the underground palace…
Seeing the desperate state James and the others were in, Lucjan burst into a peal of laughter.
Ezekiel who was beside him stroked his beard and said smilingly, “The Thousand-Machinery Formationis ever-changing and unpredictable. This is only just the beginning. If they still can’t comprehend thesecret of the formation, they’ll be trapped inside until they die of exhaustion.”
At the same time, James continued dodging the attacks. As he had to be on alert for any incomingarrow projectiles while taking care to evade the steel wires which would appear out of nowhere, he wasin a rather compromising position.
Swish!
“You’ve kept me waiting, James.”
Lucjan looked at James and the martial artists of the ancient martial world with a mischievous grin onhis face.
“It’d be a shame to kill you. However, since you insisted on making my life difficult, I have no choice butto get rid of you. I will first capture you and lure the others here. After killing you, I will inject Gu venominto your body and control you.”
“Lucjan…” James’ face darkened, and he said coldly, “You will not leave this place alive.”
Holding the Blade of Justice in his hand, he charged violently toward Lucjan. Meanwhile, Lucjan hastilyretreated. By the time James arrived at Lucjan’s location, he was already gone without a trace. Just ashe was about to give chase, unusual changes occurred in the surroundings.
This was an underground palace around 1000 square meters in area. Steel plates suddenly emergedfrom the surrounding walls.
Boom!
Just as James was dazed by the changes, a loud noise reverberated throughout the undergroundpalace. James turned his head and realized that the passageway further ahead was blocked by a stonewall. “Oh no.”
At that moment, James had a bad feeling.
He knew that this place would be full of traps. However, to save the abducted martial artists andannihilate the Gu Sect, he came nonetheless.
He hurriedly retreated and met up with Jackson and the others.
Wearing a grim expression, Jackson said, “The way back has been blocked.”
Crack!
A noise echoed throughout the underground palace.
“What’s that noise?”
Distraught, everyone scanned their surroundings.
At that moment, tiny holes appeared on the steel plates. Then, a strange and unpleasant odorpermeated the air.

Swish!
Sword Energy burst forth and struck the stone wall in the distance. However, hi’s Sword Energy couldnot deal any effective damage to the stone wall.
Just as James was busy evading the projectiles, a huge web suddenly fell from above. Unable tododge in time, an ancient martial artist was ensnared. The more he struggled, the tighter the webbecame. In just a short amount of time, he was completely immobilized. Then, a passageway appearedbelow him, and he fell into the depths. The passageway was sealed shut immediately after.
Soon, more and more ancient martial artists were trapped and fell into the depths.
“James, this is the Thousand-Machinery Formation!”
Jackson’s voice came from afar.
Upon hearing this, James momentarily froze before asking, “What is the Thousand-MachineryFormation?”
“It is a formation created by Lazarus Zayden, a renowned tactician and strategist of the ThreeKingdoms Period. It is created specifically to deal with extremely powerful martial artists. Legend has itthat this formation has a thousand different forms. Even a legendary martial artist would be trappedinside if he doesn’t know the secret behind the formation.”
Jackson’s attention was diverted. At that moment, he was ensnared by the web. As a seventh-rankgrandmaster, he catalyzed True Energy in the hopes of breaking free, but no matter how hard he tried,the web did not budge at all. In an instant, the ground below him gave way, and he also fell into thedepths. “Mr. Cabral!”
James rushed toward him in vain. He was too late.
At that moment, only he remained in the underground palace. Everyone else had been captured.
“Damn it!” James cursed.
He knew that this place would be full of traps. However, he did not expect it to be the terrifyingThousand- Machinery Formation.
“What should I do?” James panicked.
