Chapter 570: Chapter 488: The Five Cities Above the White Jade Capital (Can’t finish writing, will post first)_3
"Huff."
Wu Rongbao suddenly relaxed, suppressing the fear in his heart.
Rumors had it that, at the height of the Daozi of the Heavenly Sword Sect, he could open the gates to the three immortal cities of Long Han, Chi Ming, and Shang Huang.
Indeed, he was much weaker now.
However, this scene also showed that the other party truly intended to annihilate them, demons, once and for all.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to force open the second city.
Taking advantage of this moment, the Fleshwing Silkworm, which had been severely wounded by a sword strike, finally managed to crawl out from under the water. The terrifying gash in its abdomen seemed impossible to heal, revealing its pulsating internal organs.
"You are dead..."
The Fleshwing Silkworm glared ferociously at the aged figure.
It was unclear whether it was speaking to Su Hongxiu or warning Wu Rongbao, who was beside it.
Just then, chains across the sky suddenly tensed.
The aged figure swiftly rose into the air, causing the nine demons, each at the twelfth layer of the Return to Void Stage, to stumble several steps.
She held a White Jade sword, moving through the air, and launched an attack at the Fleshwing Silkworm!
But midway, the nine demons, who had reacted, pulled her mid-air. Torrents of demonic power poured into the mysterious chains, and coupled with the already incredibly rare material of the artifact, even if Su Hongxiu stood still and allowed herself to be struck by it, it would exhaust her last bit of strength.
"Take it easy, no rush."
The old tortoise reminded with great patience, then brought his palms together. Countless golden patterns formed a large seal that he hurled fiercely toward Su Hongxiu.
It was about to land on her.
But Su Hongxiu suddenly dodged backward, narrowly avoiding the strike.
Wu Rongbao glared furiously at the nine demons on instinct.
But he instantly noticed something odd.
On the back of each of the nine demons, there was now an identical mysterious chain.
The nine chains were held in the hand of the slender figure.
As the Ink Robe fluttered, radiant purple-gold light shone brightly, and to everyone’s surprise, the young man managed to pull down all nine Great Demons with his own strength!
Despite their focus and efforts concentrated on Su Hongxiu.
After all, this group of demons was the elite among the elite of the turtle army.
Seeing this unfold was somewhat terrifying.
"You deal with this one, I can’t beat him."
Shen Yi casually glanced at Wu Rongbao and reminded him indifferently.
"..."
Su Hongxiu had long since noticed the young man’s presence and knew who had saved her sister previously, but there was simply no time for lengthy discussions.
And since she revealed herself, the young man had ceased all actions.
Su Hongxiu wasn’t one to force others to help, nor did she think that a Returned Void Cultivator could make much difference in a battle of this level.
Unexpectedly, he found the right moment to have a significant impact.
"If I can make it back alive, I will truly support you as Sect Master."
Su Hongxiu’s straightforward statement, if heard by any other cultivators of the Nan Hong Seven Sons, would have caused a great shock.
Because the implication of her words was to be enemies with all the Baiyu Capital Cultivators, including the elders and direct disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
It was a bold declaration that even Wei Yuanzhou dared not make.
However, Shen Yi seemed as if he hadn’t heard, grappling with the nine demons while his gaze stayed fixed on the Fleshwing Silkworm.
Su Hongxiu also withdrew her gaze and turned to launch an attack at Wu Rongbao!
"Damn you!"
Wu Rongbao glared at Shen Yi resentfully. Someone in the water was clearly dying, yet he had somehow managed to draw the attention of the Daozi of the Heavenly Sword Sect to himself, an act so foolish and incomprehensible!
But in this place called Nan Hong, other than the giants of the Union Dao Stage.
No one could afford to be distracted when Su Hongxiu’s killing strike was inbound.
Wu Rongbao decisively manipulated the golden patterns on his body, focusing all his thoughts on the incoming White Jade sword.
At that moment, a whisper suddenly sounded in his ear: "Hey!"
The old tortoise’s body trembled violently, almost causing his mind to collapse.
To have someone sneak up behind him unnoticed at such a time...
It couldn’t see who was behind it.
Because that person stepped directly on its head, stomping down hard, causing Wu Rongbao to uncontrollably tumble forward.
"..."
Not even Su Hongxiu had expected things to progress so easily until the White Jade Sword cut off half of the old turtle’s shoulder.
The suddenly appeared stone puppet, using its father as a stepping stone, leaped high into the air, charging towards the Fleshwing Silkworm.
As Wu Jun reached the highest point, an aura belonging to the White Jade Capital swept through the surroundings!
"Hmm?"
Wu Rongbao and Su Hongxiu simultaneously turned their attention to it.
A new Baiyu Capital Cultivator’s presence, under such circumstances, was entirely capable of turning the tide of battle!
However, upon clearly seeing the figure’s appearance,
both of them were momentarily stunned.
Wu Rongbao stopped his painful shouts, covered his bleeding shoulder, and stared blankly at his own son.
The good news was that the other party had mysteriously become a White Jade Capital Great Demon of the same realm as himself... the bad news was, damn it, this creature was coming for him!
"Stone puppet?"
Su Hongxiu slightly raised her eyebrows, a rare ripple stirring in her heart, finding it hard to imagine, even with her extensive knowledge, that the art of puppet crafting could be so powerful.
In Nan Hong, White Jade Capital was a genuine top-tier powerhouse.
Now, she was told that a mere inanimate object could possess the same strength, even if it had only just glimpsed the power of White Jade Capital, it was extremely shocking.
An inanimate object meant it could not fall and could be passed down through generations. If the Heaven and Earth Treasures necessary for its creation could be cultivated, it might even be possible to produce such spirit puppets in large quantities.
Was the Nanyang Sect still hiding such a method?!
She finally understood the meaning behind Shen Yi’s words from earlier.
Not being able to defeat Wu Rongbao meant that he genuinely had the ability to deal with the Fleshwing Silkworm, that the opponent’s biggest trump card was not some Dao Palace or spiritual magic, but the ability to craft puppets!
"Now, I really am going to kill your entire family."
Su Hongxiu withdrew her gaze, quietly watching Wu Rongbao before her, and then her sword swept out like a torrential rain!
At the same time,
Wu Jun also pounced onto the Fleshwing Silkworm, having received such a generous reward from his master, he had finally elevated to a realm once unimaginable.
This was his first battle, and he would not disappoint his master’s expectations!
He viciously raised his palms, under the augmentation of his rich bloodline, his golden patterns were even denser than his father’s. At this moment, they all converged into his palms, fiercely bombarding the Fleshwing Silkworm and enveloping it entirely.
The golden lines drew together, as if about to squeeze the enormous worm directly into a lump of flesh!
"Rise!"
Wu Jun’s palms dug into the fleshworm’s body, lifting it high into the sky as if he were hoisting a mountain.
The situation shifted abruptly!
The nine Great Demons finally broke free from the shackles of the Mysterious Chain and cast their furious gaze upon the figure in the Ink Robe.
The biggest flaw of a spirit puppet was that it required a cultivator to control it.
As long as they killed this monster, there might still be a chance to turn the tide of the current situation.
"..."
Shen Yi put away the Mysterious Chain, unhurriedly drawing out the Dragon Lance.
He calmly scanned the surroundings, looking at the nine fearsome and ghastly demons that had encircled him.
Shen Yi arched an eyebrow.
So they outnumbered him, huh.
As the purple aura clothed him once more,
suddenly, the blue sky turned desolate.
A row of Ink Robe figures holding lances suddenly appeared behind the demons, nine... ninety... nine hundred...
Until the eyesight of the group of demons was filled with those towering purple-golden pupils peering down at them.
They slowly lifted the tips of their lances, a sinister smile forming on their lips.
On that pale and handsome face, there was a hint of rare, barely perceptible arrogance as he said softly, "Come on, then?"
Killing someone’s entire family, it really had been a long time since he’d done such a thing.
Indeed, he was feeling a bit... itchy for action.
