Chapter 363 3 vs 6
Chapter 363 3 vs 6
The wind and sand were rolling.
Outside Firelocust Mountain, a man and a woman were hidden in the blood mist high in the sky, looking down at the mountain-protecting array below, whose spiritual light was dim and whose operation was clumsy.
The woman covered her face and laughed:
"Senior brother, we've been fighting for so many days, and today we're finally going to crack this turtle shell. A few days ago, that cultivator's golden core was swapped by that demon king, and we absolutely cannot hand it over again this time."
"Junior sister, I'm counting on this thing to help me break through to the mid-stage."
"Don't worry, junior sister, I will definitely fetch it for you," the man replied with a smile.
After half a month of continuous attacks, the allied cultivators in the formation suffered heavy casualties.
Right now, we don't even have enough people to activate the mountain-protecting formation. Today, we are confident that we can break through this mountain and kill the three Golden Core cultivators without any failure.
"Thank you, senior brother!" The woman felt relieved upon hearing this, but then she suddenly remembered something, and a trace of melancholy appeared between her brows, causing her mood to drop.
"Junior sister, what's wrong?"
"Senior brother... Didn't we hear news from the rear a few days ago that Senior Xuan You was attacked by two Nascent Soul cultivators, resulting in the destruction of his physical body, with only his Nascent Soul escaping...?"
The woman whispered, "Currently, all the Golden Core cultivators and Demon Kings have retreated from the southern part of Zhao Kingdom back to the Wanling Mountains. The cultivators of the Youquan Sect have also been summoned back to their mountain gates and will no longer participate. Without such a major sect, I'm afraid..."
"With less of a constraint over there, and Bai Yan leading his troops north to aid Wu, I think the situation is becoming quite serious."
"Hmph, it's all the fault of those good-for-nothing demons!" Upon hearing this, the man's smile faded, and he couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.
If it weren't for the Blood Demon Emperor's repeated delays, how could such a crushing defeat have occurred?
However, he wasn't too worried. As a high-ranking member of the Bloodflame Sect, he was much better informed. He simply said:
"Junior Sister, don't worry. True Monarch Mingyue has already led the fellow cultivators to intercept them. They've probably already engaged them. Even if the interception fails, it will take them two days to cross half of the Wu Kingdom to get here. By the time they arrive, we'll have already stormed into the heart of the Fire Cloud Sect."
"In addition, the Demon Lord also sent people to the Youquan Sect to discuss the matter. Senior Xuanyou can stay in the mountains, but those Golden Core cultivators and sect disciples must return... There will be big trouble if they are not there."
"That's good. What about the demon race?" The woman breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"This time, our Chu Kingdom almost lost a Nascent Soul cultivator. The Demon Lord is furious and has ordered the Burning Feather Demon Emperor to send a message to the Blood Fiend Demon Emperor, demanding that he lead his troops to the Wu Kingdom within half a month, or he will personally go into the mountains to drag him out."
"Since the Demon Lord has personally given the order, it must be foolproof!"
The Heavenly Demon Lord is decisive and ruthless, and his word is law. If he were to go there in person, he would likely commit countless acts of killing.
"A temporary setback is nothing, as long as we maintain the initiative. That's why I'm determined to conquer this mountain today."
After speaking slowly, the man glanced at the four demon kings who had revealed their true forms not far away, and said in a deep voice:
"Four kings, you may make your move!"
"Fellow Daoist Yin Fu, we have been waiting impatiently for a long time. We can finally begin..."
The one who answered the man was a wolf king covered in silver fur. Its true form was the ancient, exotic White Prison Wolf, and it was also the leader of the four demon kings.
With a deafening roar, the beasts that had been lurking at the foot of Firelocust Mountain began to charge at the great formation like madmen.
The four demon kings took the lead and personally charged into battle.
The man known as Yin Fu Shangren waved his hand slightly at this moment, and the demonic cultivators on the spirit ship behind him unleashed their spells and magical artifacts.
Amidst the interplay of thunder and fire, the Fire Locust Mountain Formation roared and its already dim spiritual light rapidly weakened. Many of the immortal cultivators responsible for guarding the nodes coughed up blood and fainted.
The combined power of the four demon kings was extraordinary. As small gaps were torn open in all directions around the great formation, Yin Fu Shangren's eyes narrowed to slits. After a few breaths, his smile deepened.
There was no other reason than that three streaks of light were already rushing towards this direction from Firelocust Mountain.
"The great formation is about to break, yet you haven't run away. It seems you intend to perish with this mountain. Very well... just what I wanted!"
Yin Fu Shangren chuckled inwardly, pinched the woman beside him hard, and said with a strange laugh, "Junior sister, wait here. I'll go and fetch what you desire!"
"Senior brother, hurry back! Don't keep your junior sister waiting!" The woman scoffed at him and replied with a smile.
"Don't worry, they're just three old men in the early stages of the Golden Core realm. The great formation protected them earlier, but now that it's about to break, let's see what they can use to stop them!"
Yin Fu Shangren rode the wind forward, chanting incantations. A black, curved blade flew out from his sleeve, pointing directly at Wei Yun, who was fighting the White Prison Wolf King.
His Taoist name was also taken from this natal magic weapon.
Yin Fu Dao (a type of dagger).
Wei Yun, who was fighting the wolf king, was still recovering from his injuries. In addition, the demon king was fierce, and after more than ten rounds, he gradually fell into a disadvantageous position. When the battle reached its most intense moment, his spiritual platform frantically issued a warning.
He was terrified and glanced to his right, where a dark light was rushing toward him at an extremely fast speed.
"Damn it, it's that Yin Talisman Blade that killed Fellow Daoist Wang!"
Without a doubt, it must have been Yin Fu Shangren who made the move. He endured the excruciating pain and flicked a talisman from his sleeve, which transformed into a spiritual shield to protect himself.
Three breaths later, the Yin Talisman Blade arrived as expected, its enormous impact shattering the spiritual barrier and heading straight for his heart. Fortunately, he slightly turned to the side and narrowly dodged it.
How could the White Prison Wolf King let go of such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
With its right claw, it slammed down, intending to tear Wei Yun to shreds. Unexpectedly, the magic robe on Wei Yun's body suddenly burst forth with dazzling spiritual light to defend itself, and the claw could only knock him away.
Although not killed instantly, the old man was also badly injured. The enormous impact slammed him into the clouds and embedded him in the Fire Locust Mountain. In an instant, countless rocks tumbled down, crushing and killing hundreds of demonic beasts.
"Cough cough..."
Wei Yun struggled to get up from the pit, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood. The broken ribs were not the main problem; the key issue was the burning pain in his internal organs, which aggravated his old injuries.
"Three against six, how can we possibly win..."
The old man was filled with despair, and now he even felt a little regretful that he hadn't listened to the advice of the Tang family's Golden Elixir and should have evacuated earlier.
Waiting for reinforcements from the south of Zhao is not a long-term solution; it will take at least two days.
Even if he is severely punished by the sect, as a Golden Core cultivator, he won't lose his life. At most, he will be sent to other places to atone for his mistakes, and he can live as long as he can.
Now, even if they wanted to leave, they couldn't.
"Since I'm going to die either way, I might as well risk self-destruction and take someone down with me!"
A fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he was about to ride the wind again when his mind alerted him once more.
Sure enough, that faint light came again!
