The Great Wild God - Chapter 298
Chapter 298 Ambush And Kill
At present, the Governor-General’s Mansion could monitor the spatial barrier connecting Cloud Continent and Thousand Demon Realm, and there were signs that the formation was continuously operating, but it was unable to detect any movement within the sea of flames.
However, such fierce azure flames could not be resisted by Innate Demon Gods or Pure Yang Dao Weapons that were not rank 1 Demon Dragons. Thousand Demon Realm demons should temporarily seal the spatial passageway and wait for the sea of flames to disappear.
At this moment, the edge of the sea of flames was filled with azure flames. Not only was the void thousands of feet above the ground covered by the azure flames, even the depths of the Thousand Devil Sand Sea was penetrated by the sea of flames.
Unexpectedly, the hundreds of billions of tons of sand and stones in the Thousand Devil Sand Sea were not melted into magma by the azure flames.
Chen Xun had destroyed the Kui Dragon Spirit Armor to the extreme within a ten thousand meter radius, but he was still unable to completely resist the burning of flesh and skin by the azure flames. There was even an exceptionally powerful suction force that wanted to drag people into the vortex of the sea of flames …
“There is a spiritual vein that hasn’t been destroyed in the depths of ten thousand feet. When the sea of flames shrinks further, Marquis Azure Water, your tribe will need to set up sealing formations here. You will need to push the main force of the Barbarian Martial Arts to this line to seal off the demons!”
Fu Yan was also secretly shocked to see that Chen Xun was only at the Heaven Origin Realm and could easily withstand the suction force of the Flame Sea vortex at such a close distance. In comparison, other than Ji Lie, Hu Taiyan, and a few others, the other dozen Origin Core warriors had already felt a little exhausted walking within 5,000 feet of the Flame Sea.
Chen Xun saw that this place was only two hundred kilometers away from Dragon Sparrow Ridge. If he really found spiritual veins here, it should be them who had pushed forward to set up defenses here.
If the Governor-General’s Mansion of the Northwest Region could find more undestroyed spiritual veins along the route, the entire ring of vanguard lines would be able to advance within a distance of less than three hundred miles from the entrance of the Demon Ruins.
In this way, the entire front line would only be extended by a thousand li, and it would be possible to completely wrap around the mouth of the Demon Ruins.
Such a situation was naturally most beneficial to Cloud Continent.
The magical creatures were compressed within a narrow radius of two to three hundred kilometers. No matter how many magical creatures there were, they would not be able to rush into Cloud Continent without restraint. The Northwest Region and the Azure Hinterland outside Tu Mountain did not need to worry about being slaughtered by the magical creatures.
Thinking of this, Chen Xun spread out his divine sense. Thinking of how he was going to explore the underground spirit veins, ten thousand feet was still too deep, but he still had the means to bring the spirit veins up and set up an array.
Just as Chen Xun was considering how to set up the formation more appropriately, an old Kui, who was hiding in the Void Origin Pearl, suddenly sensed a divine sense warning, “Killing intent!”
Chen Xun was shocked. He suddenly looked at General Fu Yan with divine might. Seeing the fierce thoughts in his eyes flickering like thunder and lightning about to be swallowed, his body immediately swung its tail like a Kui Dragon, and in an instant, he retreated a hundred feet.
Fu Yan’s cultivation was too high for him. Even if he had a killing intent, it was impossible for him to sense it. However, Old Kui was hiding within the Void Origin Pearl.
Old Kui lost his physical body and no longer had the strength to fight against a Dharma Realm expert, but his origin soul cultivation was still there. If Fu Yan really wanted to kill him, he would definitely not be able to hide it from Old Kui.
Ji Lie and Hu Taiyan were also shocked, and they bullied Chen Xun and Fu Yan from the left and right to guard against Fu Yan attacking Chen Xun.
“What are you doing?” Fu Yan asked angrily.
Chen Xun was suddenly shocked. Even if Fu Yan was planning to kill him, he would never openly kill him in front of so many people. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to explain himself to the entire Ce Tian Manor.
Fu Yan purposely revealed killing intent to lure him back!
When Chen Xun thought of this layer, his reaction was already half a beat slower. A long-rope python wrapped itself around his body.
Xia Xiangyi, who was hiding among the guards of the Governor’s Mansion, had a ferocious look on her face. She stared at Chen Xun like a poisonous snake and shouted crazily, “Chen Xun, you bullied your master and annihilated your ancestors. Today is the day you bestowed the title of apology to the ancestors of the sect!”
Chen Xun had witnessed the power of the Immortal Binding Ropes, but the long rope that was wrapped around his body was several notches stronger than the Immortal Binding Ropes he had seen before. In an instant, it had already wrapped his hands and feet tightly.
Although Xia Xiangyi’s Immortal Binding Ropes had been abandoned by the Giant Snake Heavenly Snake, it wouldn’t be difficult for Xia Xiangyi to refine a stronger Immortal Binding Ropes with Gu Yangzi’s help in the next decade or so.
Xia Xiangyi did not need to have the ability to kill him. As long as she trapped him for a few breaths of time with the Immortal Binding Ropes and dragged him into the Flame Heavens, it would be enough to shatter his bones and make him die without a burial ground.
Chen Xun crazily destroyed his spirit essence. Although his strength was already stronger than Xia Xiangyi’s, it was definitely not an easy task for him to break free from the binding of the Immortal Binding Ropes within three to five breaths of time.
Apart from wrapping around his limbs like a python, there were also several invisible ropes that entered his bones and wrapped around his spirit sea soul.
The Void Origin Pearl emerged from the depths of his soul, its radiance surging, but it was unable to break free from the restraints of the invisible ropes for a time. Old Kui was also unable to struggle out of the Void Origin Pearl to help Chen Xun escape.
“Xia Xiangyi, what are you doing?”
Hu Taiyan was shocked by the suspicion in front of him, and he scolded him angrily.
Without saying a word, Ji Lie took out his spirit sword. A golden light flickered, and a sword light that was a hundred feet long slashed towards Xia Xiangyi.
Chen Xun was entangled by the Immortal Binding Ropes and was powerless to struggle. He was rapidly falling towards the sea of flames. In order to save Chen Xun, he had to kill Xia Xiangyi first. Without a sacrificial messenger, the Immortal Binding Ropes would naturally be freed.
“Chen Xun deceived my ancestors, betrayed my sect, and killed all the disciples of the Divine Night Sect. Sect Master Ji, aren’t you afraid of heaven striking lightning if you interfere in the affairs of our sect?” Facing Ji Lie’s incoming sword light, Xia Xiangyi shouted crazily, but she had no intention of stopping. Her face was ferocious and terrifying.
However, in the blink of an eye, Xia Xiangyi’s Spirit Armor spat out a string of Scarlet Yang Lightning Flames, shattering Ji Lie’s incomparably powerful golden sword light.
Ji Lie was both shocked and angry.
Xia Xiangyi was able to block the sword strike with such light intent. The spirit armor on her body must be a Heaven Ranked supreme treasure. From this, it seemed that the person who wanted Chen Xun to be buried in the Sea of Flames today was definitely not Xia Xiangyi alone.
Seeing that Hu Taiyan had already produced a magical artifact to help Chen Xun resist the binding of the Immortal Binding Ropes, Ji Lie spat out a mouthful of pure Yang pill essence and spat it onto the spirit sword.
The sword light did not explode, but the golden light converged into infinite magical scales, appearing like a golden divine dragon.
This scene shocked everyone. They never expected that Ji Lie, who had cultivated for less than a hundred years, would have already reached the peak of the Origin Core realm and was about to step into the Dharma Aspect Realm in half a step.
The power of the sword light suddenly increased tenfold and slashed towards Xia Xiangyi.
“Xia Xiangyi, if you have something to say, say it properly. Chen Xun is still conferred the title of Marquis of Azure Water by the Heavenly Palace. You are truly rebellious to kill him.” Fu Yan shouted angrily as he took out his magical artifact and charged towards Xia Xiangyi.
Seeing Fu Yan attack, the other Origin Core warriors also took out their magical artifacts, wanting to kill Xia Xiangyi to pieces and stop her from dragging Chen Xun into the sea of flames with the Immortal Binding Ropes.
At this moment, Xia Xiangyi’s body revealed a multicolored light, forcefully blocking Ji Lie’s sword strike that surpassed the Origin Core realm.
Everyone was even more shocked when they saw this scene.
There was no way Xia Xiangyi had such strength. She could destroy Spiritual Essence and Pill Essence, revealing multicolored multicolored light. This was a sign that only Celestial Realm Sovereigns possessed.
Unless Xia Xiangyi had a Pure Yang Dao Weapon on her, she would still have to use a secret technique to destroy it. Only then would her strength increase to such an extent in an extremely short period of time.
It was already too late for Ji Lie to think of using his sword again.
At this moment, the Immortal Binding Ropes had already surged with multicolored light. The magical artifact that Hu Taiyan had sacrificed was sprayed with multicolored light, instantly destroying the ground. Hu Taiyan spat out blood from the backlash of magic power, and Chen Xun was even more unable to break free from the binding of the Immortal Binding Ropes. Like a meteor, he fell into the sea of flames …
“Xia Xiangyi, you dare to kill my Great General!” Fu Yan raised his Heavenly Allheaven Divine Palm and slapped it towards Xia Xiangyi.
Xia Xiangyi’s face was filled with shock, but before he could react, his soul had already been torn to pieces by the Heavenly Luo Divine Palm’s Heaven and Earth momentum.
Even if Ji Lie wanted to stay alive, he could only watch helplessly as Chen Xun fell into the sea of flames. Xia Xiangyi was smashed to ashes by Fu Yan and blown away by the wind. Only a remnant mark filled with profound mysterious talismans actually withstood Fu Yan’s devastating blow and fell from thin air, sparkling with divine light on the sand.
Fragment of a pure Yang Dao artifact? !
Everyone was shocked. They forcefully suppressed their impulse to snatch it. They thought in their hearts, it was just a fragment of a Pure Yang Dao Weapon, but they also thought, even if it was a fragment, it was still a Pure Yang Dao Weapon!
Ji Lie turned around and yelled angrily at Fu Yan, “Fu Yan, what do you mean?”
“Xia Xiangyi will kill my Great General. Everyone will be killed!” Fu Yan shouted, “Ji Lie, do you still want to protect Xia Xiangyi?”
“Killing Chen Xun was definitely not done by Xia Xiangyi alone. If you didn’t have a ghost in your heart, why would you kill Xia Xiangyi to silence him?” Ji Lie’s heart was filled with rage. The veins on his forehead were exposed, and the spirit sword light in his hand flickered.
“This sovereign also feels that Lord Crimson Brow and Gu Yangzi are very likely to participate in this matter. This sovereign will definitely report this matter to True Monarch Jiang, thoroughly investigate this matter, and give Chen Xun justice!” Fu Yan shouted angrily, “Xia Xiangyi is dead even if she doesn’t die. If you continue to slander Ji Lie, I’ll kill you as well!”
Everyone stopped Ji Lie and tried to persuade him. No matter how they looked at it, it was impossible for General Fu Yan to instigate Xia Xiangyi to kill Chen Xun. It was also a grudge within the Divine Night Sect to pursue the matter further.
Hu Taiyan wanted to cry without tears, but who would have thought that Chen Xun would actually kill Xia Xiangyi’s sneak attack today?
Tie Xintong and the others’ cultivation levels were limited. They had previously guarded ten thousand feet away. Now that the Imperial Profound Bombs Battle Formation had rushed over, they could only watch helplessly as Chen Xun was engulfed by the sea of flames. The pain in their hearts tore through their hearts and lungs …
Zong Ya gritted his teeth and exchanged glances with Gu Jianfeng. Without saying a word, he rode on the divine wolf and dragged the Profound Thunder Chariot back to Dragon Sparrow Ridge.
Looking at this situation, Hu Taiyan knew that everyone in Wushan would definitely not let it go.
If Mountain Parasol rebelled and attacked the Nanling Protectorate to avenge Chen Xun, how could Mountain Parasol be the enemy of the Protectorate at this moment? Fu Yan’s eyes were filled with profound frost and ice, undoubtedly waiting for Mountain Parasol to give him an excuse to attack!
Hu Taiyan was so anxious that his blood and Qi attacked his heart. He shouted at Ji Lie, “Sect Leader Ji, something big has changed. Follow me to Dragon Bird Ridge!”
Zong Ya, Gu Jianfeng, Tie Xintong, and the others retreated into the Dragon Sparrow Ridge and activated the Sealing Array to prevent everyone from entering, sealing Hu Taiyan and Ji Lie off as well.
Looking at this situation, Ji Lie was filled with sorrow. He knew that everyone in Wushan would never trust anyone again. Standing outside Dragon Sparrow City, he said sorrowfully, “Return to Wushan. Unless Ji Lie’s body is shattered, they will not be allowed to block your path of retreat!”
Zong Tu stood at the top of the city wall and said with a trembling voice, “Sect Leader Ji, you guys should also take care of yourselves. The Jiang clan and the Governor’s Mansion don’t spit out bones!”
Hu Taiyan’s face was filled with tears. He had made a great wish that he would not get rid of any demons or leave the Northern Ridge. Seeing that a major event could be accomplished, the various Governors of the Governor’s Mansion were actually impatient to get rid of Chen Xun first and then quickly. In such a situation, how many people would be able to defend the Northern Ridge with the Divine Night Haoran Sect?
