Chapter 162: Chapter 162: Six Great Void Refinement Realm Experts! (Weekend Bonus)
In the depths of the great mountains, dozens of Huang State Loose Cultivators swept across the sky, their Divine Senses scanning the forests below.
“Strange, their qi ultimately vanished in this area, where on earth could they have gone?”
“They must still be nearby, search meticulously.”
These Huang State Loose Cultivators realized that the people from Hidden Dragon Temple hadn’t gone far.
The Hidden Dragon Temple squad had formed a formation that shielded their qi, evading the relentless pursuit of the Huang State Loose Cultivators.
“All squads have arrived in the vicinity, no need to worry.”
Fairy Yi’an of Hidden Dragon Temple commanded the formation, the invisible Formation enveloping several members of Hidden Dragon Temple within it.
Three hundred li away, Lu Changsheng hurried over with several disciples.
“The people from Mount Shu have arrived.”
Master Wuchen of Immeasurable Temple and several great monks had already been waiting at this location.
Master Wuchen appeared kind and benevolent, yet his cultivation was anything but weak.
With his cultivation having advanced to the third layer of the Void Refinement Realm, Lu Changsheng could now more or less discern Master Wuchen’s level of cultivation.
Master Wuchen’s cultivation was around the fifth or sixth layer of the Void Refinement Realm.
Apart from Master Wuchen, there were three other great monks of Immeasurable Temple who were at the Dao Palace Realm.
“Years have passed, and Lu has indeed made further progress in his cultivation,” Master Wuchen said, feeling a bit surprised as Lu Changsheng’s qi felt stronger than it did five years ago at Iron Sword Pass.
Master Wuchen, having cultivated for two thousand years, and with the Power of Faith from Immeasurable Temple to boot, was astonished that he might soon be overtaken by Lu Changsheng, who had only been cultivating for a bit over two hundred years.
“Master flatters me.”
Lu Changsheng always remained humble.
“The Hidden Dragon Temple squad is trapped ahead with a Demon General nearby, making it hard for them to break free.”
“Why not use an Earth Escape Talisman?”
“This Demon General is a master of Space Law and the Imprisoning Arts; ordinary talismans are useless… The Martial Alliance and the Refinement Sect have arrived.”
Master Wuchen looked into the distance to see the arrival of the squads from Martial Alliance and Refinement Sect.
Master Ma of Martial Alliance, at the fifth layer of Void Refinement Realm.
Grandmaster Ju of Refinement Sect, at the fourth layer of Void Refinement Realm.
Though the Refinement Sect’s cultivation levels may be at the bottom among the six major sects, it possesses a vast array of treasures, which can more than compensate for their shortfall in cultivation.
“We’re only missing the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion.”
“The Inquiry Immortal Pavilion squad has also arrived.”
After waiting a while, a Supreme Elder from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion arrived leading a team.
Fairy Duanmu from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, at the fifth layer of Void Refinement Realm, commanded the squad.
Five Void Refinement Realm experts gathered together, with over a dozen Dao Palace Realm Elders.
“You may retreat now.”
Master Wuchen transmitted a message to Fairy Yi’an of Hidden Dragon Temple.
As Fairy Yi’an maintained the formation, she received Master Wuchen’s talisman transmission and said to the several Elders of Hidden Dragon Temple, “We prepare to leave this place.”
Boom!
Suddenly, a fierce explosion echoed through the forest.
The Demon General made his move, striking with his palm, his demonic power withering and crushing everything in its path, obliterating a swath of forest in a storm of sand and stone.
“I know you are still around here, only hidden by a formation, but I will find you!”
The Demon General struck another palm, destroying yet another stretch of forest.
Other Huang State Demon Race Loose Cultivators also took action, launching indiscriminate attacks in an attempt to find the Hidden Dragon Temple squad concealed nearby.
“Staying here any longer would mean certain death. Let’s go.”
Fairy Yi’an took out an Earth Escape divine talisman, and the Hidden Dragon Temple squad became a stream of earthy yellow light, burrowing into the ground and fleeing toward where Lu Changsheng and the others were located.
“Finally come out, have you?” The Demon General, with a fierce look on his face, stretched out his hand, “Imprisoning Divine Art!”
The ground suddenly collapsed downwards, the earth compacted, forcibly interrupting Hidden Dragon Temple squad’s Earth Escape technique, leaving them no choice but to burst forth from the soil.
“This Great Demon is indeed powerful, ranking only below the Demon Lord among the demon race of Huang State.”
“The Demon Lord’s four major Demon Generals are indeed strong. If he possessed stronger magical treasures, he might even match our Sect Leader in combat.”
As the group from Hidden Dragon Temple emerged, the faces of several Elders from Dao Palace were solemn.
The power of the four major Demon Generals under the Demon Lord was immense.
Below the Demon Generals, there were also a host of Great Demons and Demon Race Loose Cultivators from Huang State.
Fairy Yi’an wasn’t a match for the Demon General either, otherwise, there would have been no need for her to attempt an Earth Escape.
“No matter how you struggle, it’s futile. Just obediently await your demise.”
The Demon General stood aloof, hands behind his back, gazing down at the several people below like ants.
Aside from Fairy Yi’an, the other Hidden Dragon Temple Elders were merely at the Dao Palace Realm.
“Not necessarily.”
Five streaks of light arrived, and teams from Mount Shu, Immeasurable Temple, Martial Alliance, Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, and Refinement Sect converged.
“Oh? I didn’t expect all six major sects to send people to track down the Demon Lord’s whereabouts. Since you’ve discovered where the Demon Lord is recuperating, we can’t easily let you leave.”
The Demon General spoke unhurriedly, looking down on the Supreme Elders of the six major sects.
As long as the six Sect Leaders were not present, these people might not be his match.
The Demon General, with several dozen Loose Cultivators from Huang State, confronted Lu Changsheng and the others.
“With only one of the four major Demon Generals present, united, we have a chance to kill him.”
Fairy Yi’an analyzed the strengths of both sides, seeing a chance to slay the Demon General.
The Supreme Elders from the six major sects had practiced for many years, possessing numerous offensive and life-saving measures.
Lu Changsheng, with the shortest cultivation time, also had plenty of offensive and life-saving techniques thanks to the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator.
“Prepare to meet your demise right here!”
The aura of the Demon General began to rise, intending to extinguish the teams from the six major sects.
Demonic Qi surged like a tide, darkening the skies, as clouds blanketed the heavens for a hundred miles.
“This Demon General’s cultivation might have reached the eighth level of the Void Refinement Realm, and he’s also adept in the Space Law and Imprisoning Arts. This demon is even more difficult to deal with than the Savage Elephant King.”
Lu Changsheng secretly prepared to unleash his Immortal Sword Radiant Extermination.
This was his first time battling such a formidable opponent.
Fortunately, he also had help from the Supreme Elders of the other five sects, and not long ago, he had acquired the Immortal Artifact True Dragon Divine Fire Cover.
Lu Changsheng briefly assessed his own side’s combat power.
From Hidden Dragon Temple, Fairy Yi’an, seventh level of the Void Refinement Realm.
From Immeasurable Temple, Master Wuchen, sixth level of the Void Refinement Realm.
From Martial Alliance, Master Ma, fifth level of the Void Refinement Realm.
From Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Fairy Duanmu, fifth level of the Void Refinement Realm.
From Refinement Sect, Grandmaster Ju, fourth level of the Void Refinement Realm.
And himself, Lu Changsheng from Mount Shu, third level of the Void Refinement Realm.
On the side of the Huang Tribe, the Demon General might have eighth-level Void Refinement Realm cultivation, plus three exceptional Great Demons at the fifth, fourth, and third levels respectively.
“Master Ma, you take on the Great Demon at the fifth level of Void Refinement.”
“Fairy Duanmu, you take on the Great Demon at the fourth level.”
“Elder Lu, you take on the Great Demon at the third level.”
“Master Wuchen and Grandmaster Ju, follow me against the Demon General.”
“The rest of the Dao Palace Realm Elders, deal with the ordinary Huang State Loose Cultivators.”
Fairy Yi’an passed her instructions to everyone, making arrangements.
With the highest cultivation among them, just one realm below the Demon General, Fairy Yi’an, together with the boundlessly proficient Master Wuchen and the treasure-rich Grandmaster Ju, had a chance to fight the Demon General to a standstill.
“Agreed.”
Lu Changsheng’s gaze shifted to the exceptional Great Demon at the third level of the Void Refinement Realm he was assigned to confront.
Fairy Yi’an, considering Lu Changsheng’s the lowest cultivation base, assigned him the easiest Void Refinement Loose Cultivator to handle.
