Seated high above the heavenly clouds, observing the world of mortals below.
Wang Ba, sitting in the bone boat, could not resist looking down.
Mountains, rivers, cities, villages, swept past at astonishing speed under the small bone boat.
However, his heart did not immerse itself in the spectacular landscape.
Instead, it was full of doubt.
“What did Bai Yu mean when he said we might encounter a Spirit Chicken on this trip?”
“The Incense-burning Dao Cultivators also raise Spirit Chickens?”
After a while, the bone boat suddenly slowed down, but it didn’t land. Instead, it remained hidden in the clouds.
Within Wang Ba’s line of sight, he unexpectedly saw a somewhat familiar city. “Yushui City?”
At this moment, looking down from above Yushui City, one could see that the city’s magnificent spells, Sword Qi, and light were still rampant.
There are astonishingly over ten Master Cultivators of Foundation Establishment embroiled in a brawl!
At his glance, a random spell shot out, and instantly, a corner of the city wall collapsed.
“Don’t stare at the cultivators below.”
Bai Yu suddenly said.
Wang Ba’s heart shivered and he quickly retracted his gaze, only using his peripheral vision to sweep over.
Soon, he could vaguely see the situation in Yushui City.
The Tianmen Cult had as many as twelve cultivators attacking the Incense-burning Dao Cultivators.
But the Incense-burning Dao Cultivators were not just three people as Ji Lin had said, there were eight!
Among them was a red-haired incense-burning Dao Cultivator, whose aura was astonishingly strong and incomparable, leading the pack amidst the group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
The man alone held off five Tianmen Cult cultivators, and the situation was evenly balanced.
At this point, if either side could add even one cultivator, the balance would immediately tip.
However, what baffled Wang Ba was the fact that Bai Yu, who was clearly hovering over Yushui City, had no intention of intervening.
His vague face did not reveal any emotions either.
But even though, Yushui City was too close to the East Saint Sect’s residence. Soon, another Foundation Establishment Practitioner from the Tianmen Cult arrived.
With the addition of the new comer, the situation immediately turned against the Incense-burning Dao Cult.
Even though the red-haired incense-burning Dao Cultivator was powerful, the Tianmen Cult cultivators were not weak either, and their spells were equally exquisite.
Soon, while the red-haired incense-burning Dao Cultivator was held back, a cultivator from the Incense-burning Dao Cult was suddenly hit by a knife filled with the aura of slaughter from a Tianmen Cult cultivator.
The body was instantly torn apart!
What forced Wang Ba to pay a closer look was that even when the Incense-burning Dao Cultivator was dying, it exploded with an astonishing aura of the Soul!
“Chirp”!
Several Yin Ghosts exploded, and the invisible Soul force instantly hit all cultivators!
The other Incense-burning Dao Cultivators only hesitated for a moment before they resumed their actions.
Although the Tianmen Cult cultivators also touched the threshold of the Soul, they were far from the Incense-burning Dao Cultivators. This invisible Soul explosion instantly turned a few Foundation Establishment cultivators with weaker Souls pale, and their actions slowed down a bit.
In the battle of cultivators, every second counts!
Just a fraction of slowness, and the opportunity was immediately seized by the Incense-burning Dao Cultivators. Three of them roared, and a mysterious light ascended from their heads. They combined into a formless image of a huge Deity, and slapped down!
The hand silently passed through two Foundation Establishment cultivators.
In just a moment, the light in their eyes quickly dimmed.
Then came the thumping sound of them falling to the ground.
They were still alive, but their Souls had been obliterated!
At this moment, Bai Yu finally tilted his head slightly to look below.
However, what puzzled Wang Ba was that Bai Yu still did not make a move.
He just watched the scene below attentively.
The sudden loss of two Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Tianmen Cult happened to restore the balance.
After an impatient fight, another Incense-burning Dao Cultivator was targeted and killed by a Tianmen Cultivator using a Class II Thunder Seed. He was instantly obliterated, both in body and soul!
This time, they were unable to detonate the Yin Ghosts in time.
The death of this Incense-burning Dao Cultivator quickly triggered a chain reaction.
The red-haired Incense-burning Dao Cultivator, who was already struggling, couldn’t dodge in time and had one of his arms chopped off.
Although cultivators have a firm will and can instantly block out the pain in their bodies, the absence of an arm significantly reduced his effectiveness.
Soon, the Tianmen Cult Cultivator who had freed his hands joined forces to slice another Incense-burning Dao Cultivator.
Three Incense-burning Dao Cultivators were slain.
Seeing the situation quickly going south, the red-haired cultivator couldn’t hold up any longer. He violently crushed a Yin Ghost and his face instantly turned pale.
However, the surrounding Tianmen Cult cultivators were caught off guard and instantly froze.
The red-haired Cultivator took the opportunity to pull away, recited a Secret Technique, and the chopped up arm quickly came together again.
At the same time, he shouted:
“What are you still waiting for!!”
Outside of Yushui City, after a brief silence.
In an instant, remarkably mighty flying swords quickly magnified in everyone’s eyes!
Accompanied by these flying swords, was a shocking and sharp sword howl!
“Finally, they’re here.”
Atop, on the bone boat, Bai Yu finally stood up, attentively watching the scene below.
But even so, it was incomprehensible to Wang Ba that Bai Yu still showed no intent to make a move.
“Who is he waiting for?”
A question like this could not help but rise in Wang Ba’s heart.
Even now, even if he was rather naive, he realized that Bai Yu expected other enemies aside from the Incense-burning Dao Cult.
But who is worthy of him waiting for?
Even at the cost of watching his fellow disciples die horribly?
Thinking about the reason Bai Yu brought him along, Wang Ba had an inkling.
But this guess made him feel incredible.
Below.
With the rushing flying swords, even though Tianmen Cult cultivators were prepared, four of them were killed instantly after one confrontation.
The Tianmen Cult, who originally held a numerical advantage, saw the number of their Master Cultivators fall to seven.
After the flying swords had slain four Tianmen Cult cultivators, they finally revealed themselves, surprisingly, there were eight Foundation Establishment cultivators cloaked in purple.
Upon seeing these purple-robed cultivators, Wang Ba on the bone boat experienced a sudden contraction of his pupils!
He recognized it!
Not recognizing these people… But he recognized the clothes these people were wearing. It was the standard purple robe worn by the East Saint Sect’s Inner Sect Disciples and some ordinary elders.
East Saint Sect!
It’s really them!
This vaguely fading presence is now, at this moment, suddenly becoming vivid again.
“They haven’t left the Chen State, but instead mingled with the
Incense-burning Dao Cultivators…”
Wang Ba’s eyes narrowed, meaning that the upper echelons of the East Saint Sect are obviously not willing to give up the Sect’s base taken away from them, still waiting for an opportunity to reclaim the Sect’s residence.
But Wang Ba had a faint guess in his heart.
What the East Saint Sect really can’t let go of is probably not just a sect residence. The Fanming locked in the core area of the sect is probably the key point.
An existence that can exert the fighting power of a Nascent Soul order, and the Tianmen Cult has not mastered it to this day.
Perhaps there is a reason why the East Saint Sect has not given up.
But what really made Wang Ba frown was that if the East Saint Sect refused to give up, then there would be constant conflict between it and the Tianmen Cult.
And as a Heresy Cultivator, he might have a hard time extricating himself from the quagmire of the two parties’ struggles in the future.
But now is not the time to think carefully.
Within Yushui City, the scene has changed again.
Seven Tianmen Cult Foundation Establishment Cultivators are suddenly stuck in a hard fight in the face of the combined attack of Incense-burning Dao Cultivators and East Saint Sect cultivators.
These East Saint Sect inner sect disciples, each of them thickly suffused with aura, are proficient in offensive swordsmanship.
Furthermore, they were originally in the upper hand, so each blow towards the Tianmen Cultivators, who were in a very poor state, was lethal.
But none of them noticed that outside Yushui City, the Qi Refining cultivators from the Tianmen Cult had quietly surrounded the entire Yushui City.
Flags with obscure auras were implanted quickly into several key spots of the geographical position.
“They were not waiting for people… but for the Qi Refining cultivators to quietly set up the array?”
Upon seeing this, Wang Ba’s face twisted in astonishment.
But upon reflection, this was truly the usual style of Tianmen Cult.
Just like the surprises attack on the East Saint Sect in the past. Who would have thought that Ning Daohuan, the Sect Hierarch of Tianmen who was an Immortal Master of Nascent Soul, would rely on a group of mundane manual workers that were not even cultivators.
The Sect Master of the East Saint Sect, Ji Lan, did not expect this either.
Because of that, he lost quickly to the Tianmen Cult in a moment of carelessness.
Otherwise, if they relied on the Fanming Array, even if they could barely hold it up in the end, at least the Tianmen Cult would also have to pay a heavy price.
Apparently, reversing overwhelming odds through subtle maneuvers, a strategy of risking for higher returns, has already been ingrained in the Tianmen Cult’s bones.
And it was at the moment when the number of Tianmen Cult Cultivators was about to be reduces again.
Hum!
Surrounding Yushui City.
In that instant, Wang Ba recognized the blood-red light screen which rose from the ground and then met in the air.
Seen from the top, it was like a large red bowl covering the top of Yushui City!
“It’s the Class 11 Blood Sacrifice Array!”
With the face changing, an Incense-burning Dao cultivator who had fought with the Tianmen Cult many times before, exclaimed.
The eight East Saint Sect cultivators also had minor changes in their faces, and the swords in their hands slowed down a bit.
Seven Tianmen Cult cultivators immediately synchronously burst out and then took the opportunity to turn around and fled.
“We should also hurry up and leave! Once we’re too late, we will be transformed by this array!”
The red hair Incense-burning Dao Cultivator said urgently.
However, perhaps ignorant of the array, the disciples of the East Saint Sect seemed unphased.
“What a mere array, it’s nothing.”
“Watch me, ‘Cuts the Sky’!”
A soaring sword light slashed towards the blood-red light curtain, but quickly disappeared silently into the light curtain.
“This… how could this be?!”
An East Saint Sect disciple was shocked, as if he didn’t believe his own eyes.
The originally flushed face of the red-haired cultivator immediately turned black.
No wonder these people were driven out of their Sect by the Tianmen Cult. With such a mind, it’s strange they’re not dead!
But now it’s too late to leave!
“Damn it! This was all the doing of you country bumpkins!”
The red-haired cultivator was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth and he began to try various tactics immediately.
Just after a while, he noticed that his Qi and blood, Essence Yuan, and Soul in his body were all constantly bubbling up!
All seemed to be gradually getting out of his control!
And the East Saint Sect inner sect disciples seemed to have noticed something wrong as well, their faces changed drastically, and each performed outstanding swordsmanship. A stream of sword Qi hit the blood curtains, but was silently dissolved.
“You’re wasting time! This array utilizes the geographical position. It borrows the power of the geographical position to refine us, and it cannot be broken from the inside. If no one destroys the array from the outside, we will undoubtedly die!”
The red-haired cultivator’s face turned frightful.
Now there wasn’t any external help to expect.
Within the bone boat, Wang Ba still bore a serious look on his face.
Because he found out that even though the Blood Sacrifice Array was set up, Bai Yu was still standing still, staring below.
At this very moment.
Bai Yu suddenly raised his head and his semblance gradually grew clear, revealing two hollow eye sockets. He was staring intently at the distance.
Before long, outside the Yushui City formation, some cultivators could not help but pointing at the distance with horrified faces.
“Wha… What is that?!”
Everyone immediately followed the direction of the fingers.
They then saw a black dot.
That black dot, at a terrifying speed, quickly enlarged in everyone’s eyes!
When the black dot finally appeared in front the formation.
A Tianmen Cult cultivator could not help showing an alarmed look on his face:
“Widow Maker! It’s the Widow Maker!”
Within the bone boat, in the clouds.
Wang Ba was looking at that figure, which was kind of familiar, yet unbearably strange. He was shocked..
