A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 325 - 285: How Dare He

Under the abundant supply of Spiritual Qi from the third-level Spirit Vein here, the Flounder-Shaped Divine Swords continued to emerge, instantly exceeding a hundred, with the sharp Geng Metal Qi making hair stand on end, and the piercing whistling sound tightening hearts.

Under the cover of Heavenly Torrent Spiritual Mist, Duo Chao darted in, swiftly piercing into the array formation of the Qi Cultivation Elite.

But two hundred elites struck simultaneously, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle, with the leadership of two Foundation Establishments, waves of Defensive Light Shields surged up like tides, nearly a thousand Defensive Talismans and a hundred Defensive Techniques were launched into the air, with Spiritual Qi chaotically surging, causing the Five Elements Grand Array to become chaotic.

Duo Chao was continuously depleted by such a vast defensive formation, somewhat stretched beyond capacity.

But at this moment, a deep humming sound almost tore everyone’s eardrums apart!

An ominous black Thunder Light directly rushed into the array formation, the Gui Water Divine Thunder that could tear all things apart blossomed within the formation!

Simultaneously, the Xin Metal Divine Lock clattered and rolled, sweeping through the array like a giant python, instantly scattering the Qi cultivator’s array formation.

The two enemy Foundation Establishments were ready to strike when suddenly the sound of wind behind them arose, fierce firelight ignited, with Guh Niqiang striking down a palm, and Pan Qin’s Flying Sword emitting dazzling Golden Light.

These two were one Mid-Stage Foundation Establishment and one Early-Stage Foundation Establishment, Guh Niqiang and Pan Qin each found opponents, borrowing the cover of Spiritual Mist for a swift assault. At first contact, both Guh and Pan were surprised.

Not because the opponents were too strong, but, quite the opposite, too weak!

Pan Qin and his opponent were evenly matched, but Guh Niqiang was prepared for a showdown with a master, and she unleashed her full power at first contact, instantly causing her opponent to struggle, burning their left arm with fierce Cyan Flames.

Such a person was called a master, pursuing Han Wen?

Guh Niqiang shouted out, "Han Wen is lying!"

Wang Yu was shocked, and at that moment, Han Wen suddenly opened his eyes, with Spiritual Pressure suddenly rising!

He and Zhang Hansong maneuvered their Spiritual Artifacts, flying into the air, shooting towards the Hexagonal Glazed Tower!

There lies the Spirit Vein, the Array Map!

In an instant, Wang Yu understood everything, Han Wen’s aim was to seize control of the Grand Array!

Why?! There’s clearly a peace treaty, a non-aggression pact, if Han Wen strikes, he will suffer the backlash from the Dao Heart Oath. He’s the leader of a gang, in his prime, with a bright future ahead, isn’t he afraid of lifelong stagnation in cultivation?!

"Stop them!"

Amidst rumbling, the Divine Ship opened fire, a barrage of Spiritual Power Cannons shot down, yet only slightly delaying their speed, as Spiritual Power Cannons were still too slow against Foundation Establishment.

At this moment, most cultivators from the Shuangye Alliance had already entered the Divine Ship, leaving no cultivators to obstruct around the Hexagonal Glazed Tower. Wang Yu felt a cold sweat, realizing this was all part of Han Wen’s plan!

Don’t panic, absolutely don’t panic. Wang Yu forced himself to stay calm and began issuing new commands.

"Two Foundation Establishments, quickly exit the formation and provide support!"

Simultaneously, he desperately sent out messages, extracting fifty cultivators from the two Divine Ships, rushing towards the Spirit Vein.

Master Xuan Ji, you must hold on!

But now, instead of Guh Niqiang and Pan Qin being entangled by the enemy, the enemy was entangling them. Besides the enemy Foundation Establishments, some Qi Cultivation Elites disrupted by the array transformation gathered to apply pressure, cooperating with the Foundation Establishments.

At the critical moment, Guh Niqiang’s Cyan Flame surged explosively, with the Golden Crow Illusion loudly screeching, instantly sparking a flurry of Flame Feathers in the air.

She shouted, and the Flame Feathers rained down like a storm, enclosing the two Foundation Establishments and dozens of Qi cultivators.

"I’ll hold them here, you quickly go to support!"

Pan Qin hesitated not a moment, dashed out of the formation, heading towards the Hexagonal Glazed Tower.

Guh Niqiang’s opponent instantly became two Foundation Establishments accompanied by dozens of Qi cultivators, with pressure greatly increasing!

Within the Hexagonal Tower, Master Xuan Ji sensed the overwhelming presence of Han Wen and Zhang Hansong, but fortunately, he had already controlled the Array Map, using various array transformations to divide the two hundred Qi cultivators into several large and small segments, allowing the Grand Array to keep auto-running for more time.

Under no circumstances can the enemy seize the Array Map now.

Thinking this, his aged face suddenly broke into a sparkling smile.

"Ha, finally it’s time for this old bag of bones to step onstage!"

In his arms, a flash of Five-Colored Light, and a silver Array Map flies out, landing on the Spirit Vein, with five small Command Banners spinning up, standing at five corners.

"Old pal, today I’ll let you taste the flavor of the third-level Spirit Vein too."

The moment the Five-Colored Array Realm opened, the walls of the Hexagonal Glazed Tower shattered explosively, and Han Wen and Zhang Hansong burst inside, darting into Master Xuan Ji’s Five Elements Grand Array!

Simultaneously, high above Fucang Mountain, thunderous battle cries rose again.

Master Fengfeng and Master Yeguang clashed in one place, with one wielding the Yin-Yang Celestial Cyan Fan stirring up a hundred-yard Tornado, densely packed Wind Blades like swimming fish, while the other blasted out massive Thunder Balls with the Thunderous Drum, endless lightning making people look upon with fear.

Where the two Golden Cores passed, wind and thunder interwove, radiating towards the surroundings, causing both enemy and ally cultivators to retreat, for those slow to move among Qi cultivators would be reduced to powder instantly.

Each side’s Foundation Establishment Feather Scholars also chose their opponents after one round of collisions among military formations. The thirteen Foundation Establishments from Sanshan County were in better condition, whereas Chongming County had lost three Foundation Establishments from the Shahe Gang, yet filled in three from Yunshan Sect, resulting in twelve Foundation Establishments overall but in somewhat worse condition than Sanshan County.

Lu Qian and his party traveled long distances, exhausting Spiritual Power heavily, immediately plunging into battle upon arrival at Fucang Mountain without rest. Coupled with Lu Qian’s persistent chill over Han Wen’s betrayal, foreseeing ominous signs, he intended to conserve some strength to respond to changes, but found this army formation battle completely different from previous ones, offering no chance to hide strength whatsoever.

In all directions, above and below, cultivators were everywhere, with dense attacks raining down like storms, confusing directions in an instant.

Charging headfirst, it was a layer upon layer of enemies, with any lapse easily resulting in getting trapped within enemy formations. Especially after confronting the enemy, not only did one face encircling attacks from enemy Qi cultivation elites but also needed to brace against indiscriminate friendly fire.

Shouts of battle, roaring, exploding, wailing filled the ears, overwhelming attacks sweeping upon like waves again and again; no chance to hold back during the fray!

Thus Lu Qian roared, shielding Wu Yan behind him, with Spirit Crystal blazing in his arms, a flash of Five-Colored Light springing up, and the Five Elements Grand Array rising thunderously.

No matter how many Foundation Establishments or Qi cultivators, entering my array, face death!

Obscured in all directions by Heavenly Torrent Spiritual Mist, he gently brushed his left hand, with the Gui Water Divine Thunder roaring explosively, his right hand lightly waving, setting Bing Fire Divine Crow ablaze.

Yang Jiye and Duu Yeming stood at his left and right sides, each deploying Spiritual Artifacts for a swift cleave towards the enemy.

Three enemy Foundation Establishments likewise roared in anger and charged forward. Lu Qian activated Five Elements Dao Pattern, swelled Gui Water Divine Thunder up to half person-sized, the black Lightning directly tearing through one person’s defense, while Yang Jiye wielded Purple Qi Celestial Net, triggered Sky-Breaking Dao Pattern, deploying Sword-Hammer-Ring Blade in unison, striking one person into coughing blood and retreat!

The brothers’ cooperation was seamless, instantaneously causing heavy injury to an enemy!

Duu Yeming also assisted from the side, the Five Elements Grand Array rotating, mowing down heads in a short while. The allied cultivators behind exploited the opening gap, causing chaos on the enemy’s side-wing.

Two more enemy Foundation Establishments flew over, four attacking but still caught by the Five Elements Grand Array, engaging in chaotic clash with Lu Qian and the three without achieving anything significant.

This chaotic battle drew Master Yeguang’s attention, whose mind churned, intelligence flooding him, and who matched the Five Elements Grand Array with Lu Qian.

He intercepted Master Fengfeng’s past attack, returning a strike with added Spiritual Power, slightly pushing Master Fengfeng back, with sound waves rolling and echoing in all directions: "Lu Qian from Yunshan Sect, your sect’s Yuchi Hui received your care. You’re quite prominent still flaunting here."

"I’ve dispatched Han Wen to seize Mingsha Bay, haven’t you known?"

These words shocked Lu Qian into losing color.

Han Wen didn’t defect; he switched allegiances? He switched to Liyuan Sect, also attacking Mingsha Bay?

How dare he do such, dare betray the Dao Heart Oath?!
