Chapter 429 Black Mountain Pass Falls, Return to the Mountain Gate
This is showing absolutely no respect.
The Fire Demon looked displeased, but the Nether Demon and the Underworld Tiger ignored the conversation and continued talking to themselves.
"In that case, I'll head south. What about Brother Minghu?"
"I'm going north."
Wang Yu left in the direction east of Black Mountain Pass, which is the front, leaving the task of launching a sneak attack from the rear to Fire Ghost.
This position is a bit dangerous. After all, if Hao Ran Sword Master and Silver Moon Child Granny retreat, they will definitely escape from behind. If the two of them pass by his head, they might just attack him.
Who can say for sure?
Unfortunately, the three of them moved too fast and disappeared in a flash, showing little respect for him, their senior.
Things have come to this.
He could only blame his poor eyesight for not noticing that the three had secretly reached an agreement. Furthermore, he had a personal grudge against Wangyue Palace and dared not reveal his methods to attract the attention of Yinyue Tonglao.
He could only hope that his disguise technique was effective enough that, without revealing his methods, Silver Moon Child Granny wouldn't be able to recognize him based on his appearance alone.
After the four took their positions, the demonic cultivators they brought remained hidden in a more distant location. They were unable to participate in battles at this level and were instead used for receiving supplies afterward.
Once Black Mountain Pass is captured, the Nascent Soul experts will disband, and then it will be up to them.
at the same time.
On the main battlefield of Black Mountain Pass, the Evil Soul Ancestor, who had transformed into a thousand-foot-tall Ghost Emperor, sensed the arrival of Wang Yu and the others.
"Now all that's missing is the Blood God Guard Commander, let's wait a little longer..."
His gaze was fixed on Haoran Sword Head, who had broken free from the gap. Blood was trickling from the corner of his mouth, and one of his legs was twisted abnormally, making him look quite disheveled.
The Divine Might Dharma Form does not belong to the Nascent Soul stage.
This is a technique that only a Nascent Soul cultivator can use. It's not bad that the evil spirit uses it as its trump card.
But it's still a little short for him.
"Evil spirit, since you refuse to listen to reason, today I will show you what true righteous energy is."
"What's with the barking?"
The evil spirit's response and mockery stiffened Sword Master's expression; anyone could sense the suppressed anger within him.
"--furious!"
"What righteous spirit? A bunch of hypocrites seeking fame and fortune, and they call themselves upright? Wouldn't that make them a laughingstock to those in the know!"
When words fail, even half a sentence is too much; after discovering that arguing is no match for a mischievous spirit.
Hao Ran raised his sword and roared to the sky.
A beam of seven-colored light suddenly pierced through the scene of dark clouds obscuring the sun, and the midday sun shone down, weakening the evil spirits from the start.
The sun's essence shines naturally, which is the order of the Great Way.
It can be blocked, but not changed.
The entrance "effect" of dark clouds covering the sky may well have been caused by an evil spirit deliberately casting a spell; that's quite a clever person.
After reversing the disadvantageous environment, the seven-colored righteous energy condensed into multiple giant swords, which were then inserted into the Ghost Emperor's Dharma form in a sword array.
Like drawing a circle on the ground to imprison oneself, the sword energy stirred up the universe.
The cage was formed in an instant!
The evil spirit was startled. Since the Sword Master of Righteousness dared to claim to be the number one person below the Nascent Soul stage, his level was naturally not that simple.
The roar of ten thousand souls coalesced into the Ghost Emperor's Fist.
The sword struck the sword energy cage with great force, causing it to tremble violently, but it showed no signs of shattering, demonstrating the sword tip's formidable strength.
"Even the power of the Dharma Body is no match for it?"
The natal magic weapon, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls, appeared in the hands of the Ghost Emperor's Dharma Image at some unknown time. Using the banner as a spear, it seemed to sweep up thousands of fierce souls with just a few swings.
He thrust the sword energy cage a second time.
The two attacks were very close together, but it allowed Haoran Swordhead to fully charge up his power, and it was still a greatsword technique.
But the flavor was different. The seven-colored giant sword slashed down vertically as if it wanted to cleave the sky. The righteous intent enhanced its power several times over, and the righteous sword was the key element.
"—BOOM!!!"
With a loud bang, the Ghost Emperor's Dharma Image knelt on one knee, his shoulder almost completely severed. The giant sword was still stuck in the Dharma Image's body, as if it would not stop until it was completely cut off.
The Myriad Souls Banner Spear did pierce through the cage of sword energy, but it lacked the strength to counter this sword strike.
If this situation continues, the Ghost Emperor's Dharma form will dissipate.
The Evil Soul Ancestor might die at the hands of the Righteous Sword Master. The sword cultivators' offensive capabilities are still too strong, and the Righteous Qi does indeed restrain the Ghost Path.
The problem was that the evil spirit was weak, not that it was weak and it failed on the wrong path.
If he were to face the Demon Lord of the Nether Blade, he could probably crush him.
The opponent is too strong!
"—Now!!"
The Evil Soul Ancestor suddenly roared, and Wang Yu and the others immediately realized that his words were a reminder to them.
Despite his hesitation, Wang Yu acted swiftly.
It could even be said that he was the first to jump out. The Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet led him out of the sandy ground, and he fired out the dark red array-breaking nails.
The north and south were a step behind, and the western rear area, which was under the responsibility of the Fire Ghost, was the slowest, but it was only a step and a half behind. The four formation-breaking nails exerted their force at the same time.
The protective array, already badly damaged, shattered instantly, leaving Black Mountain Pass completely exposed and without any further protection.
"You've arrived! We've been waiting for you!"
A sudden clap of thunder roared in the sky, and a figure that was both familiar and unfamiliar emerged from the lightning—it was none other than the Thunder Lord of Heaven!
One of the few Nascent Soul Great Perfection experts in Lei Huo Guan.
His signature supernatural power is the [Heavenly Capital Divine Thunder], which has reached a state of perfection. As soon as it descends, its target is Wang Yu.
Without any further words, a pillar of purple-gold lightning struck down from above Wang Yu's head, like a divine punishment.
They realized that the lightning was moving incredibly fast, leaving no room to dodge.
Wang Yu then threw out the Thunder Fiend Coffin, using the power of his magic weapon and the Thunder Corpse to withstand the attack. Both of these items had extremely high resistance to lightning, so they would definitely not be killed by a single strike.
He felt a little anxious, and his demonic energy circulated continuously within his body, creating layers of protection.
Fortunately, the Evil Soul Ancestor was not speaking without reason.
He let them take action because reinforcements had arrived, and he had long been on guard against Tian Du Lei Jun.
The crimson light flashed and disappeared in an instant.
A golden-red spear flew in from the horizon, shattering the Heavenly Capital Divine Lightning, and suddenly plunged into the ground. A cultivator covered in blood-red heavy armor stood proudly.
"The Blood God Guard Commander is at the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, just one step away from achieving the Great Perfection."
The Heavenly Thunder Lord landed on the ground and pointed at Wang Yu.
"You want to protect him?"
"nonsense."
The Grand Commander landed with his gun, privately communicating with Wang Yu, while publicly addressing Tian Du Lei Jun.
“How could someone like you possibly covet the limbs of my Holy Ancestor?”
As for the part about private communication.
He briefly explained the matter of the Blood Demon Palace Master. The Palace Master is also the Sect Master, and his timely arrival was partly due to the Sect Master's influence.
Wang Yu dared to kill Zidian without any mercy.
Actually, after pulling off this job, he planned to return to the mountain gate for seclusion. In the war between the righteous and the demonic, every disciple of the Holy Sect needed to exert their strength to gain some great merit for themselves.
It's better than having tasks assigned by competitors.
Once it's done, things will be stable for a long time. It's a good time to go back and refine the Human Pill Technique, use the Nascent Soul sealed inside the Glazed Pagoda, and improve my cultivation.
Once he advances to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, then he can truly rest easy.
This stage of cultivation is extremely difficult.
With the Grand Commander in charge, the battle at Black Mountain Pass can basically be put to an end.
Having completed the mission of breaking the formation, Wang Yu quickly retreated. The Nether Demon and the Nether Tiger also circled around from the side, while the Fire Ghost was temporarily out of sight.
"How arrogant!"
The Heavenly Thunder Lord and the Blood God Guard Commander are about to clash.
…………
…………
The Realm of the Moonlit Sea.
Although Silver Moon Child Granny's focus was on the Nether Blade Demon Lord, she was still paying attention to the situation outside with her divine sense. When she realized that even with the addition of Heavenly Thunder Lord, the situation could not be changed.
Naturally, one would feel the urge to back down.
In the silver ocean formed by the moonlight, the Nether Blade Demon Lord wielded his natal magic weapon, the Netherworld Demon Blade, unleashing countless Netherworld Blade Qi.
He beheaded all the attacking silver moon dragons to relieve the pressure on himself. Although he was restrained, he still paid attention to the situation outside.
He immediately burst into laughter.
"Grandma Tong, why bother with this futile struggle?"
"What business is it of yours, you crawler?"
"Hmph... If you don't show me your true skills, you really think I'm an easy target to bully."
The Demon Lord of the Nether Blade, unable to save face, uttered a series of harsh words.
He held the blade upright in front of him, his forehead lightly touching the back of the blade. The surging sword intent was like a compressed spring, ready to unleash a devastating strike at any moment.
Although he was born into the Yu family, he had never cultivated in the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
His swordsmanship is inherited from a demon lord from ancient times, and there is no ancient demon at the source of his path.
Rather, it was a system created by later generations, which was perfected over generations and gradually evolved into what it is today.
He did not understand the essence of the Dharma, but instead used the intent of the sword to strengthen his nascent soul. This intent was called—[Netherworld]!
His innate divine power is also the Netherworld Blade Dao.
Every move, every strike, is within the range of supernatural powers.
The Three Forms of the Netherworld.
"Soul Slayer!"
His path is the path of severing souls, emphasizing meaning over form.
The unadorned blade swept across the sea of moonlight, seemingly without causing any ripples, but in reality it firmly locked onto the will behind it, locking onto the true form of the Silver Moon Child Granny.
After this move was made, the Child Granny's voice never rang out again.
"Soul Annihilation!"
With the second strike, a crack appeared in the sky above the Sea of Moonlight.
"Netherworld!"
With the third strike, the entire isolation zone shattered.
outside world.
The mysterious silver sphere suddenly exploded. The Demon Lord of the Nether Blade held a blade in one hand and had the other behind his back, turning to face the crowd, revealing only his sharply defined profile.
"sharp."
"So cool!"
Youmo and Minghu's eyes lit up, and Wang Yu also looked on curiously, feeling that this person was incredibly arrogant.
I felt this person was extraordinary during the sect's Nascent Soul meeting, and it's unbelievable that he defeated Silver Moon Child Granny today!
Because he remembered that the battle report said they were being severely suppressed, so why did they suddenly stand up for themselves?
That's impressive.
On the other side...
When the Evil Soul Ancestor saw the Moonlight Domain broken and the Silver Moon Child Granny landing pale-faced on the top of Black Mountain Pass, he cursed inwardly.
Are you trying to portray me?
Sometimes it's really helpless to have a teammate like this. Right now, the Ghost Emperor's Dharma Form is about to be annihilated by the Haoran Sword Head, and he doesn't even have time to be distracted and curse a few words.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the angrier I get, the more energetic I feel.
With a sudden roar, ignoring the arm that had almost been severed, he threw a punch at the tip of the Haoran Sword.
This left the opposing team somewhat bewildered; how come they were getting stronger and stronger as the fight progressed?
Wasn't it severely damaged? The Dharma Form should have collapsed by now!
Is this a final burst of energy before death?!
If the Dharma Form collapses, the Evil Soul Ancestor will not die on the spot, but he will be severely injured.
Of the three battlefields, his is the most dangerous.
Neither the Heavenly Capital nor the Grand Commander were truly serious, but their destructive power was not to be underestimated; it was not something they could rashly participate in.
Between Tong Lao and You Dao, it seems the latter has the advantage.
But they remained motionless for a long time, seemingly holding back for some unknown reason, making it difficult for Wang Yu and his two companions to find an opportunity to enter, even though they wanted to help.
And there is definitely a risk of death after making a move.
Having already accomplished such a great feat and solved the problem of array protection, Black Mountain Pass will be taken sooner or later, so there is really no need to take any more risks.
Do what you are capable of.
The trio exchanged a glance, all recognizing the signal to slack off.
They then observed it with a clear conscience.
The outcome is still uncertain, and the fight continues. If it drags on, things may change. The Reverse Spirit Blood Sect has a distance advantage in supporting Black Mountain Pass. If it develops into a decisive battle between powerful figures, it would be a losing proposition for both sides.
The other side probably thinks the same way.
Silver Moon Child Granny transmitted her voice to the tip of the Haoran Sword, her voice extremely calm.
"The situation is already decided. Delaying it won't do us any good. Let's retreat."
"No."
Hao Ran, the swordsman, was somewhat agitated and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
"No matter what, I, the Sword Master, must break this fiend's Dharma form and severely injure him. Afterwards, we will have a greater advantage when we return to Black Mountain Pass."
"no need."
The Silver Moon Child Granny tried her best to dissuade her.
“That Nether Blade Demon Lord is not quite right. He seems to be cultivating the Mind Dao technique as well. The Netherworld Blade Intent is too damaging to the soul. If we are seriously injured in this aspect, neither of us will have a chance to ascend to godhood.”
The so-called "ascending to godhood" refers to reaching the stage of "transformation into a god."
Since this concerned his path to enlightenment, Haoran Sword Master hesitated for a moment, staring with suspicion at Youdao Demon Lord, who was so arrogant that only his profile was visible.
"really?"
"Of course, and besides, temporary gains and losses don't matter. The Blazing Sun Sect and Crane Return Valley have already entered the fray, and there are a great many cultivators in Taihu Lake. This war will continue for a long time."
Looking at the big picture, temporary gains and losses are indeed not important.
The advantage of the Taihu cultivators lies in their large numbers, while the advantage of the Chiyuan cultivators lies in their strong ability to sustain themselves through war, with many new talents emerging in every major battle between the righteous and the demonic.
The success rate of materials is much higher than that of Taihu Lake, but this is actually due to the advantage of the Demonic Path's experience in war, where there are too many materials on the battlefield.
Soul, blood, bone, corpse, evil spirit, resentment... all these things can greatly enhance the strength of demonic cultivators, naturally leading to a much larger number of promising newcomers.
Even rogue cultivators see war as an opportunity, which shows the true nature of the Crimson Kite demonic cultivators. They can be suppressed but not eliminated, which is determined by the inherited methods and no one can change it.
Black Mountain Pass is right at the entrance to Blood Abyss Prefecture and is also the stronghold of the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect. It's better to support them than to pass through Black Mountain Pass.
Therefore, once the formation is broken, the power of mid- to low-level cultivators is lost.
Once the number of strong individuals becomes equal, even if they have the advantage, they will be defeated by the continuous influx of reinforcements. Once it comes to that, it will not be a matter of temporary gain or loss.
Who knows how many powerful warriors will be lost? The other battlefields also need powerful warriors to oversee them.
The most crucial point is that this war should be a place where lower- and middle-level cultivators fight desperately to eliminate demons, not where these senior cultivators are fighting so hard.
Everyone's life is precious!
It is forbidden to do anything against the Heavenly Gang; on the other hand, it is also necessary to stop the loss in time.
"I see."
After exchanging a glance, the three Great Perfection cultivators from Taihu Lake unleashed a burst of energy and used their respective methods to escape the battlefield.
Wang Yu and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.
"it's over."
"You can go back and claim your credit now."
"Thanks to Brother Wang's wisdom and foresight."
"You flatter me!"
