Chapter 750: War
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“How dare anyone attack the immortal sects? Are they mad?”
The members of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect were used to being arrogant, thinking that they were superior to all but the heavens and the earth in this territory.
This was why they were stunned by the presence of someone even more arrogant than them.
After realizing what was happening, they reacted with fury.
A few Earth Immortals leapt out. “You’re much too confident!”
They waved their hands, and countless spheres of swords shot into the sky like bright stars to disperse the dark clouds.
And then they were stunned once more by what they saw. “Spirit soldiers of the Divine Dao... And so many of them? Quickly form the Mountain Guarding Array! Now!”
Once the number of nether soldiers exceeded 10,000, they could even fight against an Earth Immortal with the appropriate arrays and practice. And there were more than 100,000 here!
The arrogant Earth Immortals were frightened out of their wits when they saw the huge army, rushing back into the gates. “Patriarchs! Save us!”
“Form the array!” Green Mountain sneered coldly and then gave a command to the thousands of nether soldiers behind him, “Eighty-One Ferocious Malignance—Xuan Snake Transformation!”
Hiss hiss!
Dark Qi concentrated to form a winged Xuan Snake with the aura of a wasteland that would devour everything in its way with one mouthful.
“You dare!”
At this moment, the Mountain Guarding Array of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect had been arranged, transforming into countless streams of sword radiance.
The Heaven Immortals, Ye Jun and Hui Hai, arrived at the center of the array and stared wide-eyed at the scene. Two concentrated streams of Sword Qi shot out.
Hiss hiss!
The hissing Xuan Snake suddenly flapped, pushing down a large amount of Dark Qi and suffocating the fleeing Earth Immortals.
At the same time, two streams of sword radiance shot at its eyes.
The giant Xuan Snake ceased its motion and then immediately turned into black air currents, dispersing into heaven and earth.
“This array is too mysterious and complex. It’s going to take some effort!”
The expressions of Ye Jun and Hui Hai changed.
They had failed to save the sect elders, which meant that they had lost the clash.
“Who could have thought that such an array exists within the Divine Dao? The combined strength of 100,000 spirit soldiers is comparable to a Heaven Immortal. Could the Heavenly Court have sent an army?”
The two Heaven Immortals from the Bell Tripod Sect were also uncertain.
“Even if the Heavenly Court has covertly joined the battle, we can only fight! Moreover, that Lord Mountain River... is a Marquis. That God is not inferior to a Heaven Immortal, and he had the ability to unify the Three Mountains and Five Rivers. That’s awfully terrifying!”
Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly appeared solemn.
“Who are you? How dare you attack a sect of the Immortal Dao? Don’t you fear the fury of the 33 large sects?” Heaven Immortal Ye Jun chided.
It was his responsibility as the master here to fight against intruders.
At this moment, the dark clouds completely dispersed, revealing the spirit soldiers that had besieged this place, far exceeding the number of Earth Immortals.
“The Immortal Dao offended the Divine Dao in the first place! Bai Jianfei assaulted a Mountain God and paid with his life. The Spiritual Flying Sword Sect was even worse, bribing two Mountain Gods and conspiring against us! How dare you look down upon us? You’re courting death!” Fang Yuan said righteously.
It was crucial to take the moral high ground. After all, there needed to be sufficient justification when disturbing the equilibrium of power between the Divine Dao and the Immortal Dao.
“I, Lord Mountain River, shall annihilate the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect today! Unrelated people who don’t immediately leave shall be executed as criminals!”
These words were obviously meant for the Bell Tripod Sect and the Spiritual Butterfly Sect.
“As criminals?”
Ye Jun and Hui Hai seethed with rage, while Zhong Shan, Zhong Li, and Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly, after a moment’s hesitation, chose to fight with the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. “You’re crazy! You should know the consequences as a Marquis, yet you still dare assail an immortal sect?”
“Heh, Lord Mountain River. What prestige!” The two Heaven Immortals from the Bell Tripod Sect laughed coldly. “It seems that the Gods of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers need a clean-up. This time, we won’t demand anything other than the Deity Position of this Marquis!”
“Indeed!”
Heaven Immortal Ye Jun and Heaven Immortal Hui Hai looked solemn. They had no choice but to give up benefits for the survival of the sect.
“Alright! Deal!”
The eyes of two Heaven Immortals from the Bell Tripod Sect brightened up.
After all, the opponents had already revealed their strength. Other than Lord Mountain River who could fight against a Heaven Immortal, the 100,000 nether soldiers could only cope with at most a single Heaven Immortal. The rest were seven Mountain Gods and River Gods.
The Spiritual Flying Sword Sect is located within the territory of Mount Cloud Top, and the strength of Earthly Gods are greatly weakened outside their deity territory. Therefore, only Mountain God Cloud Top out of the seven Gods will take some time to defeat, while the other six are no match for the five Heaven Immortals, as well as the numerous Earth and Human Immortals, on our side...
That was why the Immortal Dao could still remain confident.
After all, they had more than two Heaven Immortals with superior strength! They were bound to win unless the Heavenly Court concealed other superior gods in the vicinity.
“Hehe... How bold! You’re not repenting in the face of our army and even dare to fight back!” Fang Yuan flicked his fingernails. “I’ve recorded everything as evidence!”
“Haha... Is he mad?” Heaven Immortal Zhong Shan sneered. “Evidence is meant for the living. What evidence will you need after death?”
” Phew ... That’s right!” Fang Yuan nodded and turned over his palm. “Well then, let them die!”
“Kill!”
The deafening sound of horns fused with the shouts of the soldiers.
The 100,000 soldiers shouted furiously, besieging the gates of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. Ferocious Qi and Malignant Qi surged up, transforming into illusionary images of ferocious beasts like the Xuan Snake, Black Tiger, Flood Dragon, and Peng, all pouncing forward.
“Thousand Swords, strike together!”
The new sect master of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect opened his eyes wide and roared madly.
Numerous Earth Immortals and Human Immortals guarded the heart of the Mountain Guarding Array, and all the disciples mustered their strength to drive it. Tens of thousands of swords shot into the sky, and the sword radiance transformed into a multitude of shapes to battle the four ferocious beasts.
Rumble!
The roar of beasts mixed with the shriek of the swords.
The beasts were pierced thousands of times and dispersed like dark smoke; swords lost their radiance and fell to the ground like lifeless iron.
“Haha... The Mountain Guarding Array of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect is equivalent to a Heaven Immortal as well! This is sufficient to negate all the advantages of the nether soldiers. We’ll definitely be able to defeat them! From today onward, our three immortal sects shall rule the Three Mountains and Five Rivers!”
Instead of being intimidated, the two Heaven Immortals from the Bell Tripod Sect were exhilarated when they witnessed this.
“So you’re from the Bell Tripod Sect and the Spiritual Butterfly Sect. It seems that neither the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect nor these two sects need to exist any longer!”
Fang Yuan waved his hand. “Kill them!”
Green Mountain and Black Water took the lead, illusionary images of mountains forming behind them. The mountains crashed downward and generated deafening sounds.
“Mm? The Gods of Mount Peace and Mount Cloud Top?” Heaven Immortal Ye Jun was panic-stricken. “How can Mountain God Peace still have such strength outside his deity territory?”
Earl-rank Gods were intrinsically Earth Immortals. While they might be able to fight against Heaven Immortals in their deity territories, they would be weaker than normal Earth Immortals upon leaving!
But right now, these two Mountain Gods had the strength of Heaven Immortals!
“This isn’t good. If those mountains really crash, the entire Spiritual Flying Sword Sect will be flattened!”
Heaven Immortal Hui Hai had to start fighting. Two sword pillars broke through the sky.
“Haha! How can you leave me out of the battle?”
River Earl Jing aggressively lunged down to join the battle, and the grand image of the Jing River emerged behind him with its boundless power.
A terrifying beast was breathing Spiritual Energy in the water. This giant water demon was his original appearance.
Splash!
The torrential water quickly broke through the gates to the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. The Mountain Guarding Array paused for a moment, and a host of ferocious beasts rushed in and started wreaking havoc, smashing the disciples into a bloody and gruesome mess.
River Earl Jing was indeed extremely ferocious and sinister in battle. He was attempting to destroy the foundation of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect directly.
“So bold! We’ve heard that you have a trace of real dragon bloodline. We can extract that for making pills!”
The two Heaven Immortals of the Bell Tripod Sect looked at each other and then jointly stopped River Earl Jing.
They had noticed that the River Gods, due to some unknown magical powers, could cope with a full strength Heaven Immortal even on Mount Cloud Top. They had to collaborate in capturing him as soon as possible.
“Shameless!” Mountain God Huo bellowed. “This is indeed what Immortals of the Immortal Dao are capable of—two versus one! Brother Jing, I’ll join you!”
The half-gold, half-jade divine seal flew out of his body, and the image of Mount Huo emerged, adding to the pressure.
After all, he had refined his divine seal again with the power of the Heaven Ritual Altar. Now, he had the greatest strength among the Mountain and River Gods.
“Damn it! How come these Gods are so powerful?!”
The two Heaven Immortals of the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect were fighting against Green Mountain and Black Water, and their hearts sank immediately.
While Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly had not yet joined the fight, the three River Goddesses and the greatest enemy, Lord Mountain River, had not either!
“Three sisters, go capture Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly!”
As expected, Fang Yuan gave the order the next moment.
Although the three River Goddesses were not adept at fighting, it would be a joke if the three of them together could not defeat one Heaven Immortal.
“Yes!”
The three Goddesses did not complain. They immediately descended to the ground as three water currents and challenged Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly.
“This...”
The face of Heaven Immortal Spiritual Butterfly turned pale. She had surely noticed that the Mountain and River Gods had fought like they were in their deity territory, wielding unlimited magical strength.
In that situation, she had the confidence of defeating one after a while, but might not be able to beat two of them, much less fighting against three at once.
“You just need to hold them back. We’ll assist you soon,” Heaven Immortal Ye Jun said in a low voice.
Hui Hai and him were two of the top Heaven Immortals. Even though the two Mountain Gods risked their lives in the fight, they would soon defeat these newly endowed Gods.
Indeed, even within their deity territory, Earl-rank Gods are no match for real Heaven Immortals!
Exchanging glances, Ye Jun and Hui Hai understood their common intention. “Accumulate strength first before catching the two Gods off guard and taking their lives. We must salvage this situation!”
