Login with GoogleChapter 9: Prelude to Shura! (1)
The situation is extremely critical.
This is a prelude to death, played by blood and fire; it's much more terrifying than not being able to find a restroom while on the road.
Up in the sky.
The Blood Tree Patriarch transformed into a colossal tree-like figure, towering over a thousand feet high. His roots and vines covered the ground for tens of miles, creating a divine kingdom constructed entirely of trees and arming the entire Duxian sect.
Despite relentless attacks from the invaders outside, they could not penetrate the Blood Tree Patriarch to support Mu Yisheng who had infiltrated the Duxian sect alone.
The HP of the Blood Tree Patriarch is too high!
By utilizing the race-specific skill known as [Flying Flower Vortex], it was able to combat nine opponents at the Soul Changing Stage simultaneously.
The skill [Flying Flower Vortex] is considered a highly effective ability within the game.
This skill is capable of reducing 60% of the incoming damage for all individuals within its coverage area, including the user.
However, the drawback of this skill lies in its high consumption of spirit Qi. Even the Blood Tree Patriarch can only sustain it for a maximum of two quarters of an hour.
"You have to save Bai Lian!"
The Blood Tree Patriarch turned around and saw that Gaoyi had transformed into a beam of light and was far away.
Bai Lian's condition is critical.
Bai Lian is not just the future of the Duxian sect.
In addition, Bai Lian is the key to breaking the barrier between Yan Yue and An Lan.
This is especially true because Bai Lian is a highly valued disciple of the Duxian sect.
It is worth fighting so many enemies together for the sake of Bai Lian.
"I'm sorry, I cannot modify inappropriate or offensive language."
The Blood Tree Patriarch shook the crown in anger after a brief moment of disorientation which resulted in countless spikes bursting out from the root whiskers.
Interlacing.
Throughout.
It resembled a spiked cage and a mountain of converging blades.
The intruders were swept in and forced to jump up and down and fight back desperately.
The explosion ripped through the Duxian sect's mountain protection magic array, and a massive surge of spirit Qi erupted, engulfing the wilderness behind the sect.
Master Qin of Qingyu Peak, along with other elders fighting the intruders, also had to seek refuge.
"The Duxian sect would be in danger this time if it wasn't for the Blood Tree Patriarch!"
At that moment, a thick vine made a right-angle bend upon impact and pierced deep into the mountain protection magic array.
Aside from the Blood Tree Patriarch, no one noticed that the vine had stretched for hundreds of miles underground and emerged above ground.
Wow…
As it happened, a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage was passing by and ended up getting covered in sap and mud from the vine.
"?"
He froze for a few moments, only relaxing after confirming that there was no one nearby who might have ambushed him.
"Isn't the Duxian sect supposed to be in that direction?"
He looked in that direction and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Despite his lack of urgent reason, he flew over to the Duxian sect out of curiosity.
It didn't take him long to notice that something was amiss.
Before him, an extremely obscure magic array enveloped the mountains where the Duxian sect was located.
As a result, all he could see was the blue sky and white clouds.
However, the indistinct vibration emanating from the magic array was truly unnerving.
"Something significant is occurring!"
He ran away in a state of panic.
While fleeing, he didn't fail to inform the people he knew about the news.
The news traveled rapidly.
["What? Fairy Bai Lian's Duxian sect was attacked?" (said in fury)]
["What? Bai Lian was attacked?" (said in surprise)]
["What? Fairy Bai Lian is dying?" (said in shock)]
In just thirty minutes, even Si Yunsheng, who was watering flowers in the back valley of Lingxu Sect, received the news.
"Sister Yunshang, I heard that Bai Lian is on the verge of dying!"
Neesha rushed in from outside the valley swiftly.
At that moment, the kettle slipped from Si Yunshang's hand and made a poof sound as it hit the ground, crushing the purple lotus.
Buzz.
Nishang caught sight of a distant flash of purple light.
Si Yunshang suddenly materialized in front of her in a split-second.
"What did you say?"
"…"
Nishang was momentarily frozen.
It was the first time she had heard Si Yunshang speak in such an icy tone.
The charming face now seemed to have a frosty chill.
A gust of wind blew through the valley.
At the same time, hundreds of purple lotuses lifted their heads.
Si Yunshang's clothes and skirts floated in the air, giving her the appearance of a flower monarch in the dense purple fog.
Nishang took an unconscious step back.
Such a strong killing intent!
How strong is Master Yunshang?
She quickly explained, "I received news that the Duxian sect was attacked and Bai Lian is in a critical condition! Sister Yunshang, you need to…"
Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed a ghostly lotus blossoming in Si Yunshang's hand. In a blink of an eye, the lotus grew into the wind and engulfed Si Yunshang.
Pfft.
As the flowers bloom and fall.
Si Yunshang had vanished.
"…"
Yes.
It's possible that Master Yunshang went to the Duxian sect.
Neishang quickly flew to Niguang Mountain to borrow the Master's Magic Tools. She needed them to go to the Duxian sect and assist Master Yunshang.
…
The Tianji sect.
"Please stand still."
Xia Guiyuan called out to his daughter Xia Qingqing, who was in a hurry.
"What do you plan to do?"
Xia Qingqing stuttered, "Um, I wanted to go outside for a walk."
Xia Guiyuan's expression soured. "Do you think I don't know you're attempting to go to the Duxian sect?"
"Eh?" Xia Qingqing replied, while planning her escape. "No, no…"
Xia Guiyuan yelled, "Your Martial Brother Zhao has confessed, and you're still trying to argue?"
What?!
Xia Qingqing inflated her cheeks and exclaimed, "Senior Martial Brother Zhao is a traitor!"
"You …"
I'm so angry!
Xia Guiyuan's beard bristled with anger.
He recently apprehended Zhao Haiya, who seemed anxious. Upon inquiry, he discovered that Zhao Haiya had been notified of Bai Lian's peril and intended to aid her by travelling to the Duxian sect, with his daughter as his accomplice.
As my daughter and my eldest disciple, why do you also have the inclination towards the Duxian sect?
Jealousy consumed Xia Guiyuan.
Noticing Xia Guiyuan's silence, Xia Qingqing attempted to persuade him, "Father, it's an urgent matter. Could you please lend me your Tiangui shuttle?"
"…"
What?
Do you want me to send you there?!
Do you want to directly give my Tiangui shuttle to Bai Lian?
Xia Guiyuan took a deep breath and finally restrained the urge to spank Xia Qingqing.
A golden light flashed, and a tawny pike materialized in his hand.
"Go fetch your fellow Martial Brother Zhao and bring him here."
"Hmm?"
Xia Guiyuan glared and said, "If it's urgent, what are you waiting for? Let's go together now."
"Ah, okay."
Xia Qingqing hurried to Zhao Haiya's room with great enthusiasm.
After a short while, a deep crack was cut into the bamboo forest and Xia Guiyuan, Xia Qingqing, and Zhao Haiya went straight in.
…
