Chapter 474 Rescue 2
Countless buildings shimmered with the light of arrays, and countless array patterns were constantly moving, trying their best to neutralize the energy that impacted the buildings.
So despite the thunderous roar of the battle, it only left the plains cratered and uneven, and had not yet broken through the Crimson Wolf Sect's protective formation.
The battlefield was even more gruesome. As the fighting intensified, both sides became extremely ruthless. When the energy from the clash between the righteous and evil factions reached a higher level, it could easily turn a cultivator of a lower level into a cloud of blood mist.
Yes, the battlefield was shrouded in a thick mist of blood.
What's even more disgusting is that many heretics actually wield special vessels and constantly urge their power to absorb and collect this blood mist in order to refine more evil treasures.
At the same time, countless primordial spirits were also absorbed by the Myriad Soul Banner.
The disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were all horrified by the sight, but the battlefield was shrouded in mist, making it difficult to distinguish friend from foe in many situations. How could they possibly find the bodies of their fellow disciples?
All I ever see are those close to me being used as resources for evil paths.
The reason why the righteous path so despises the evil path is not only because they cannot stand the other's behavior, but also because of this.
·
As soon as Wan Li arrived at the battlefield, he saw several of his junior brothers about to have their throats slit by several blood-red scimitars. They were all at the Foundation Establishment stage, but the owners of the scimitars were at the Spirit Transformation stage. Naturally, they were no match for them. They had already done their best to hold their own.
He was immediately alarmed, and after calling out to the Zhong and Wu couple, he rushed off to rescue them.
Wan Li was very skilled in palm techniques. Now he unleashed an extremely terrifying palm force, which instantly transformed into a surging wave, engulfing the curved blades into the "wave" and preventing them from getting close to his junior brothers.
Immediately, Wan Li sent his junior brothers to aid the other disciples, while he himself engaged in combat with the Transformation Spirit.
Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan didn't hesitate either, exchanging a glance at each other.
Since we're here to provide support on a mission, it's not appropriate for one of us to carry the other on our backs.
Wu Shaogan had already checked carefully and found that his Ah Cai was wearing enough protective gear, and the ancient city was also with him, so it was basically impossible for anything to happen to her.
Zhong Cai also checked his old man's defenses, which were also maxed out, and he had prepared a variety of pills.
Only then did the two barely feel at ease with each other.
Then, the couple finally charged at each other from the left and right.
·
In order to break the siege in this area as soon as possible, Wu Shaogan drew his bow with both arms, and countless arrows burst out at high speed, turning into a rain of arrows that fell from the sky and landed on the many evil cultivators.
In a mere instant, all the heretical cultivators below the Fusion Realm were wiped out by the rain of arrows.
The evil cultivators at the Fusion Realm and above barely managed to block the first wave of arrows by using either the Myriad Soul Banner above their heads, a cloud of blood mist or black smoke above their heads, or some other strange defensive artifacts.
Even so, many of the Ten Thousand Soul Banners still made a hissing sound, as if boiling water had been poured on them. The scorching power of the sun would burn any part of the banner that touched it.
Even more terrifying, as the Ten Thousand Souls Banner was destroyed by the Yang-attribute arrows, there seemed to be bursts of mournful wails and shrieks, plaintive and venomous, but they only lasted for a breath or two before disappearing completely.
Many of the Ten Thousand Soul Banners were destroyed after blocking the first wave of arrows.
Many disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were shocked by what they saw.
Especially those with lower cultivation levels who also went to the battlefield, before they could even react, they found that the enemies they were fighting with were... gone? All... dead?
The disciples looked up at the sky and saw that the arrows had landed with great precision on the evil cultivators, and not a single one had accidentally injured any of them, the righteous cultivators!
What terrifying control capabilities!
Just what kind of powerful figure has arrived?
But that's not all.
A second volley of arrows followed.
Countless rays of light fell upon the cultivators who had previously spared their lives, directly taking away all those who had merged with the evil path—their Myriad Soul Banners could only last this long, and they could not avoid this second massacre.
Soon, the cultivators at the Fusion Realm also died.
Wu Shaogan continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.
·
On the other side.
Zhong Cai knew that with his old man Wu's abilities, he could definitely solve the problem quickly, so as soon as he rushed into the battlefield, he was already holding the handles of a pair of meteor hammers and quickly and fiercely swinging them to both sides!
In an instant, several heretical cultivators who happened to be blocking Zhong Cai's way were stabbed through the heart!
He collapsed and died.
The sharp spikes of the meteor hammer were so terrifying that many shrill screams erupted from the evil cultivators.
Zhong Cai stepped forward, and his right hammer smashed into the head of a fused evil cultivator, instantly shattering his skull. The long, sharp spikes pierced through the entire skull and went straight into the evil cultivator's neck.
Blood splattered like a fountain.
However, Zhong Cai had already turned to the side, and with his left hand, he also smashed the heads of several evil cultivators, which was quite ferocious.
Zhong Cai was too fast. It seemed like he had just killed several evil cultivators here a moment ago, and the next moment he had darted dozens of feet away, smashing countless evil cultivators to death along the way.
The evil sects will also arrive with all their might, unleashing mystical artifacts such as the Myriad Soul Banner.
However, Zhong Cai's hammer still advanced relentlessly. With each swing, in addition to the cries of the evil cultivators, there were also the sounds of cloth tearing and the crisp sound of mystic weapons breaking.
Compared to the power of treasures, ordinary evil methods are far inferior to Zhong Cai.
Zhong Cai continued forward, and in just a few breaths, she had opened a passage.
Both sides were piled with corpses, their flesh mangled and bloody from being pierced by sharp spikes.
Thus, in the eyes of countless cultivators, this was a young cultivator who looked like a teenager, charging left and right, leaving a trail of dead and wounded evil cultivators wherever he went.
However, evil cultivators kept appearing on the battlefield; as one died here, others would surge in.
Currently, the evil cultivators attacking Zhong Cai are all below the Palace Building realm, and he has easily dealt with them all.
The construction of the palace and the transformation of spirits are mostly located in the area where Wu Shaogan is.
The several palace builders and one spirit cultivator in this direction were blocked by the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect.
After Zhong Cai had fought for a while, his meteor hammer was covered in blood due to the force of his charge. However, because Zhong Cai's movements were fast enough, not a drop of blood touched his body.
This was already a fast enough slaughter, but Zhong Cai still felt it wasn't enough.
Without thinking twice, he picked up the long chain and hurled the meteor hammer.
In that instant, the secret technique was unleashed.
The meteor hammer instantly split apart, transforming into countless dazzling meteors, while the chains turned into long, luminous tails that, under Zhong Cai's control, could precisely strike each evil path.
The meteor crashed down!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each meteor that fell was dozens of feet in diameter, but just before they reached the ground, they shattered in an instant, turning into countless fireballs that fiercely smashed the heads of those evil cultivators.
Anyone whose cultivation level is below Zhong Cai's is unable to resist the arrival of the meteor.
If one hit doesn't kill it, hit it ten times; if ten times doesn't work, hit it a hundred times.
Countless Soul Banners and other mystical artifacts and defensive treasures were riddled with holes and even turned into fragments in this "meteor".
The meteors seemed endless; with each swing of Zhong Cai's chain, dozens, hundreds, or even more could be formed!
·
Zhong Cai, who rarely gets a chance to relax, naturally gets carried away with the killing spree.
However, the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect who were not at the same level were all somewhat bewildered.
Just like their fellow disciples in Wu Shaogan's direction, they were all utterly shocked by Zhong Cai's method of slaughter.
This person... is just a palace-building cultivator, right?
Although the senior brothers and sisters of this level in their faction are also very powerful every time they make a move, none of them are as terrifying as this "Meteor Hammer Rain" secret technique.
Once this person makes a move, their secret technique can instantly slaughter dozens or even hundreds of evil cultivators. However, when their senior brothers and sisters make a move, they are always blocked by evil cultivators of similar strength, resulting in one-on-one battles or chaotic battles of several against several.
There was no way to inflict the same level of damage as the hammer-wielding cultivator.
Upon closer inspection, these Red Wolf Sect disciples also noticed that the difference was probably in their movement techniques.
This hammer-wielding cultivator was fast enough that the other evil cultivators didn't have time to intercept him before they discovered that the person they wanted to attack had escaped, leaving him only with the corpses of his fellow cultivators.
In addition, the hammer wielder's secret techniques are terrifying enough.
Every move the opponent makes creates a huge spectacle; the overwhelming meteor shower may seem grand and sweeping, but it can split infinitely!
While the fireballs that split off aren't as terrifying as a whole meteor crashing down, they can scatter all over the place!
Passing by a Crimson Wolf Sect disciple... nothing much happened, at most a little heat when they brushed past. But if they passed by an evil sect... they wouldn't pass by at all, they would kill them even if it meant going around in circles.
That's too ruthless.
So ruthless that even the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect didn't know how to make a move.
·
In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, there were very few evil cultivators left standing and fighting on the entire battlefield.
If you look down from the air, you'll see that the battlefield is roughly divided into two parts: the left side accounts for about 30%, and the right side accounts for about 70%.
On the left were countless meteors and fireballs, and on the right was a dense rain of arrows.
Overall, apart from those who had at least reached the Palace Establishment stage, the other disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect on both sides were unable to get involved.
The disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were also worried about what would happen if the evil spirits were captured by their magical artifacts during the battle... but they soon stopped worrying.
Because the evil artifacts of the evil path were also destroyed in the rain of hammers and arrows.
It's completely unusable.
Even if it's not completely broken and still has some function, it won't be of much use.
We can deal with it when we clean up the battlefield later.
·
The disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect breathed a sigh of relief and emerged from both sides of the battlefield, approaching each other.
They looked at each other in bewilderment.
"These two are the distinguished guests who came to support us? They don't look very old, they seem to be younger than me."
"Isn't that right? Compared to them, it seems like we've wasted our lives!"
"Judging from how terrifyingly they wield their secret techniques, they must be disciples of some level nine power. If they didn't have a strong foundation, they probably wouldn't be able to produce such powerful young cultivators."
"I know him! The one on the right, drawing his bow and shooting an arrow, is the fifth-ranked seventh-level Dou Wang on the Sky Ranking! Many people know that the reason he's ranked fifth isn't because his combat power isn't high enough, but because his cultivation level limits him. If his cultivation level were higher, he should be aiming for the top three!"
"King Wu Dou? It really is King Wu Dou!"
"Wait, I remember that King Wu Dou had a Daoist partner he loved very much. They were inseparable and always together... He was a seventh-level alchemist on the alchemist list, which was also ranked at the top. It is said that he had outstanding talent."
The gazes of many Crimson Wolf Sect disciples instinctively fell upon Zhong Cai.
They didn't believe that the legendary Wu Shaogan and Wu Douwang would abandon their Daoist partners to rush to this place alone to provide assistance. Usually, their Daoist partners couldn't come out because they were in seclusion, so it was even more impossible for him to abandon them.
And since his Daoist partner didn't come along, and Wu Douwang was accompanied by another young man... it was even more impossible.
It is said that over the decades, there have been very few living people around Wu Dou Wang who he would even glance at, let alone come here with him.
So……
There is only one conclusion.
Could it be Zhong Cai, Zhong Danwang, who wielded a giant hammer, charged fiercely across the battlefield, and slaughtered his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
If you compare the physical characteristics of Zhong Danwang with those in the rumors, it seems that they match up accurately.
...Is that really true?
Isn't that the Pill King?
It's not that Dan Wang can't have combat power, but such fierce combat power is truly unheard of, let alone seen with one's own eyes.
In fact, their combat power surpasses that of many talented disciples in the Palace Establishment Realm within the Crimson Wolf Sect!
But they're a practitioner of alchemy!
It's so embarrassing just thinking about it.
Many Crimson Wolf Sect disciples watched silently as the scene unfolded before them—
Dozens of meteor hammers slammed down simultaneously, causing even more fireballs to explode. Countless heads burst into red and white "fireworks," and countless splattered flesh and blood, creating a blurry "mist"...
That felt so good!
The disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect felt extremely pleased just thinking about how many heinous crimes these heretics had committed in their Hundred Forest Domain, how many righteous cultivators they had killed, and how many of their fellow disciples had died unjustly at their hands... Now, seeing the tragic state of the heretics, they felt extremely satisfied.
Those evildoers have finally met their match!
Another disciple of the Crimson Wolf Sect murmured, "It's not surprising that King Zhong Dan is like this. I vaguely heard that the evil sect once tried to scheme against King Wu Dou. Before King Wu Dou could even get angry, King Zhong Dan put up a ten-year bounty, causing countless casualties among the evil sect..."
Another disciple of the Crimson Wolf Sect couldn't help but say, "Judging from this, it seems that King Zhong Dan really is the nemesis of evil paths."
Seeing this, the other Crimson Wolf Sect disciples all nodded in agreement.
·
It's just a coincidence. There's no question of a nemesis or not. The previous statement was also far-fetched. But without a doubt, it's a beautiful wish of the Crimson Wolf Sect disciples.
Therefore, the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect would rather agree and would also hope that all the evil sects would die out as soon as possible.
·
After Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan's rampage, the senior disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were greatly relieved of their pressure. They only needed to focus on dealing with their opponents and no longer had to worry about the safety of their fellow disciples, so their combat power naturally increased significantly.
The evil cultivators were all cunning and scheming. Seeing that they wouldn't gain anything, they didn't want to stay any longer and quickly ran away to avoid being attacked by the others once they had a chance to free themselves.
However, the senior disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect are not to be trifled with. They were forced to a disadvantageous position before, so why can't they hold back the evil path now?
Therefore, while the Zhong and Wu couple were clearing out the "minor monsters," all the slightly more elite members of the evil sects were restrained by the senior disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect.
·
Before long, the rain of meteor hammers and arrows that filled the sky disappeared.
The stench of blood was so strong it was almost pungent, forcing cultivators to hold their breath to block out the smell during their battles.
Zhong Cai's eyes gleamed with starlight as he fought, until he realized that there was still an evil path that couldn't be killed by secret techniques, so he stopped.
He casually pulled the chains, and the meteor shower disappeared, leaving only a pair of meteor hammers in his hands.
Then, the chain quickly shortened.
Zhong Cai, carrying a hammer, randomly chose the nearest antagonistic pair of good and evil, rushed over, and joined the Red Wolf Sect disciples in the fight.
With Zhong Cai's assistance in the two-on-one battle, the Red Wolf Sect disciples quickly gained the upper hand and severely injured the evil cultivator.
The two of them worked together and killed their opponent.
Then, they split up and each went to find a Crimson Wolf Sect disciple for help.
In this way, after several such instances, all the heretical cultivators at the Palace Construction Realm were killed.
All that remains here is a Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator, who is fighting against the evil Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator.
Zhong Cai and the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were unable to get involved.
It's not that we can't help at all, but since the two sides have never cooperated before, if we go there and are used as resources by the evil forces or taken hostage, we'll just be a hindrance.
Therefore, Zhong Cai and the disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect stayed to the side to avoid interfering with the battle between the Spirit Transformation cultivators.
Zhong Cai himself looked towards the battlefield on his right.
Old Wu just went over there...
Zhong Cai looked over and saw that his handsome old man had just stopped, and in front of him, two evil cultivators fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The terrifying power of the blazing sun fell upon the evil cultivators, burning them to ashes.
·
Wu Shaogan's situation is indeed much easier.
As waves of arrows rained down, the Crimson Wolf Sect disciples who had reached the Palace Building and Spirit Transformation stages fought and retreated, trying their best not to get involved in the arrow rain environment created by Wu Shaogan.
Then, with the help of the rain of arrows, these Red Wolf Sect disciples gradually killed their enemies and went to help their fellow disciples.
Before long, the heretics died off even faster.
After Wu Shaogan used a rain of arrows to kill all the evil cultivators below level seven, only nine evil cultivators who had reached the Spirit Transformation stage remained on the battlefield.
He withdrew his rain of arrows and moved with lightning speed!
Although these evil cultivators all had opponents in front of them, Wu Shaogan didn't need to waste his time on them.
Wu Shaogan's figure seemed to transform into a blur, swiftly weaving between the two evil cultivators of the Spirit Transformation Realm—
The next moment, he passed by.
Those who practiced the evil path of spirit transformation all died with their heads removed.
Next, Wu Shaogan "passed through" another evil path, again directly passing through it and instantly killing it.
This was repeated again and again.
All the evil cultivators who had undergone spiritual transformation would be killed by Wu Shaogan without even having to face him, unless he used his secret techniques or took matters into his own hands.
quick.
That's so fast.
Before the Crimson Wolf Sect's Spirit Transformation disciples could even react, their opponents, who had fought to the death with them, were gone.
How bizarre!
Then, the Red Wolf Sect disciples saw Wu Shaogan's actions and recognized him.
Naturally, they all stepped back.
·
After Wu Shaogan finished killing, he couldn't wait to look to his left.
He knew that his Ah Cai really wanted to stretch his body, so when dividing up the battlefield, he only occupied 70% of the area.
Looking back now, Wu Shaogan immediately met Zhong Cai's gaze.
Zhong Cai's side also got things done very quickly.
Wu Shaogan saw that his daughter, A Cai, gave him an incredibly bright smile the moment she saw him.
It immediately calmed his anxious mood.
A-Cai has that kind of power.
Wu Shaogan swayed slightly and arrived beside Zhong Cai.
·
Zhong Cai gave Wu Shaogan a big smile, and then saw the unharmed old Wu standing in front of her.
He felt even better.
Immediately, he couldn't help but look Wu Shaogan up and down.
Although Lao Wu seems to be fine, he has just been through a major battle, so we don't know if he was injured. The evil path has many tricks up its sleeve, and there might be some that are not yet obvious but are actually lurking all along.
Therefore, we must investigate thoroughly.
Zhong Cai grasped Wu Shaogan's wrist and directly probed it with his profound energy.
Wu Shaogan also took the opportunity to check on Zhong Cai's condition—very good, she was unharmed.
He breathed a slight sigh of relief, then softened his expression and quietly enjoyed the care from his beloved A-Cai.
The Crimson Wolf Sect disciples not far away: "..."
The atmosphere at this moment seems to suggest that we shouldn't disturb it.
More Crimson Wolf Sect disciples confirmed that there was absolutely no mistake, these were indeed King Wu Dou and King Zhong Dan!
Some disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect wanted to express their admiration, but considering that the couple was in a very pleasant mood and it was inconvenient to disturb them, they chose to communicate through telepathy.
[The rumors were true! This couple is just as loving as ever!]
This transmission of sound has no fixed target; it is a random connection between the soul's thoughts after they are released.
It's like a group chat has started.
Many people wanted to express their feelings, so naturally, many joined the group chat.
then……
Seeing is believing! These two are not only incredibly powerful, but they also have a wonderful relationship!
I've never seen such a loving couple before! What do you married senior brothers and sisters in our sect have to say about this?
This is something we've never done before, even as an old married couple.
[Newlyweds, never before have we felt this way.]
[A gentle, continuous flow, never before has it been like this.]
In an instant, many Daoist thoughts arose together.
Then, many laughs were heard through the telepathic communication.
The sect suffered great losses, but the arrival of Zhong and Wu allowed them to win the entire battle with almost no casualties, slaughtering all the evil cultivators and recovering much of their losses.
So, let's find some joy amidst the hardship.
The disciples of the Crimson Wolf Sect were very grateful to the Zhong and Wu couple. Moreover, they planned to invite them to the sect as guests after the couple recovered, and to host a banquet in their honor.
