Chapter 281: Chapter 62: Battle Begins! (Update 5000)_1

“They’ve started fighting?”

Wang Ba seemed puzzled by the news.

Since when did Tianmen Cult and the Incense Fire Dao get along?

“It’s different this time. Even Li Canghai is said to have died in the battle!”

The fisherman negated.

On hearing this, Wang Ba was genuinely surprised.

“Li Canghai is dead?! How is that possible?!”

He remembered Li Canghai – his rugged face, burly figure, and an intimidating aura even without making a move.

Not to mention his fierce cultivation realm, which made Zhu Ziji, ranked fifth in the power rankings of Tianmen Cult, flee in disgrace.

His encounter with him not long ago was still fresh in his memory.

How could such a person die suddenly?

“Could this be a fake death?”

Wang Ba asked, unable to hold back.

Most members of the Yin God branch are soul cultivators, who are quite proficient in the art of soul manipulation. Swapping bodies for them is as easy as eating and drinking.

Generally, they are not too interested in swapping bodies because soul cultivators don’t care much about the spiritual root. After the swap, one needs to set up the spiritual government again, drain one’s soul, adjust the physical body, and waste time, which is more trouble than it’s worth.

However, when it’s a matter of life and death, it’s another story.

Li Canghai was one of the cream of the crop among Incense-burning Dao Cultivators. Even without the support of Yin God, he held sway in the Chen State and was matched by few of his peers. Wang Ba didn’t believe for a second that a person like him didn’t have a means to preserve life.

The fisherman said,

“I’m not sure about that, but I heard that Li Canghai was killed by Yan Yun from your Tianmen Cult while he was hunting down a surname Zhu cultivator.”

“In such circumstances, it’s highly likely that Li Canghai couldn’t have escaped.”

“Yan Yun?”

Upon hearing this name, Wang Ba suddenly realized something and began to feel that the news of Li Canghai’s death might be true.

After all, following Lu Yuansheng’s Core Formation.

Yan Yun of Sword Demon Dao had indirectly become the number one person in the Tianmen Cult’s Foundation Establishment realm. He had previously claimed the record of killing Wen Sheng, another leading figure in Incense-burning Dao Cultivators.

It wouldn’t be surprising if he had now killed another one, Li Canghai.

“Your Tianmen Cult seems to be going all out this time. I heard that except for the Golden Core cultivators who haven’t shown up, all the foundation establishment cultivators that are a bit famous have been dispatched all at once. It looks like the Cult’s stronghold would be quite empty!”

“The Incense Fire Dao will definitely suffer a big loss this time! I guess they didn’t expect your Tianmen Cult to suddenly go all-out.”

The fisherman said, unable to stop his sigh.

As a Rogue Cultivator, he didn’t exactly feel good about these big sects, but compared to Tianmen Cult which is still some distance away from Qianyu Lake, he undoubtedly detested the Incense Fire Dao more.

Therefore, he couldn’t help but feel some schadenfreude.

However, Wang Ba wasn’t aware of the fisherman’s emotions. Instead, he was puzzled as to how this Wu Buping acquired so much information?

Tianmen Cult was quite far from Qianyu Lake, even for him to fly to.

Besides, was the news from Tianmen Cult’s stronghold so easy to leak out?

He felt something was wrong.

However, he didn’t ponder it for too long and quickly processed the latest tidbit brought up by the fisherman.

The fact that Tianmen Cult and Incense Fire Dao had finally declared an all-out war was not too surprising to Wang Ba.

After all, Tianmen Cult had called back all the cultivators, including those who were not good at fighting, and placed them on the front line.

Obviously, it had reached a do-or-die situation.

Tianmen Cult taking the initiative to strike first was indeed a wise move.

The only problem was, with both parties at war, it would be more difficult and hazardous for Wang Ba to return to the stronghold at this time.

“However, it’s kind of strange. Given that Tianmen Cult is preparing for an all-out attack on the Incense Fire Dao, they should have informed us earlier and asked us to go back as soon as possible. This way, it would have been easier to gather our strength to fight against the Incense Fire Dao. But now, everyone is dispersed, and we have basically given up on our share of power…”

Wang Ba was full of doubts.

Foundation Establishment cultivators are not common commodities.

Adding up all five strongholds of the Tianmen Cult, there are only three to four hundred Foundation Establishment competitors.

Not to mention, behind each cultivator who is assigned tasks outside, there are at least twenty Qi Refining cultivators. This kind of personnel configuration is not small.

Yet, Tianmen Cult wasted it all, which doesn’t make much sense.

Wang Ba couldn’t figure out the thinking of Tianmen Cult’s high ranks.

However, his attention was quickly drawn to the fisherman, Wu Buping’s slightly embarrassed look.

“Does Brother Wu have something to say?”

Wang Ba took the initiative to ask.

The fisherman glanced at the quiet and distracted Shen Fu, then at Wang Ba, and finally bit the bullet and said,

“Shen and I have a deep friendship, while Brother Shen and you also share a special relationship.”

“So, I will be honest with you, Brother Wang. In the current unpredictable situation, I’m afraid I don’t have the power to escort you back to Tianmen Cult’s stronghold.”

“Can you consider changing the terms?”

Wu Buping hastily explained, “Of course, if you really don’t want to change the terms, I will certainly abide by the oath and escort you to the outskirts of Tianmen Cult’s stronghold. But if we encounter an irresistible force, I can only…”

Wang Ba’s expression turned grim at his words.

By now, Zong’er had lost his value, and his understanding of the Incense Fire Dao’s defense had reverted back to being unknown.

And he clearly understood what the fisherman meant.

He would be escorted, of course, but if there were any troubles, he shouldn’t blame him if he runs away first.

After a moment of contemplation, Wang Ba asked, “If you don’t need to escort me, what do you have to offer me?”
