The Great Wild God - Chapter 312
Chapter 312 Nan Huan
Chen Xun bowed to Luo Yuze again, “Daoist Luo, long time no see.” He looked at the group of people beside Song Xuan and asked, “Who are these senior brothers?” He waited for Luo Yuze or Song Xuanyi to introduce him to the people from the Dragon Gate Sect.
However, apart from Song Xuanyi greeting Chen Xun in front of Chang Xi, the other disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect had different attitudes towards Chen Xun.
Someone stood there and looked at Chen Xun curiously. He felt that this person wasn’t special, and he actually called Tao shi so highly valued. Someone, however, had a look of disdain on his face. He swept his gaze across Chen Xun and turned to look elsewhere.
No one stepped forward to greet Chen Xun.
“Senior Brother Luo, if there’s nothing urgent here, we’ll leave first.” A sword cultivator wearing a cloud-patterned azure robe said goodbye to Luo Yuze without even looking at Chen Xun, wanting to leave Heavenly Pillar Peak.
There were more than a hundred disciples of Dragon Gate Sect here. There were four people in the Origin Core Realm. This person was one of the four Origin Pill Taoist.
This person’s cold and arrogant posture and Origin Core Realm cultivation didn’t bother Chen Xun much.
On the other hand, the enormous sword behind him was extremely simple and ancient. The secret patterns engraved on it were actually somewhat similar to the Heavenly Jun Blazing Sun Shield. Chen Xun had a dark feeling that this ancient sword was most likely a magical artifact that he had obtained from the Heavenly Jun Secret Realm.
Seeing that this person was wearing the same robes as Song Xuanyi, Chen Xun thought to himself, “Who should this person be? There are twelve true disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect who have cultivated Yuan Dan?”
However, since this person is one of the twelve direct disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect, there is no lack of top-grade magical artifacts around him. He carried this unremarkable ancient sword on his back. Could it be that the magical artifacts from the Heavenly Jun Secret Realm, as well as some places that I haven’t figured out yet?
Chen Xun’s gaze wandered as he pondered over the ancient sword behind him. However, when it landed in Luo Yuze’s eyes, he thought that Chen Xun was dissatisfied with Zhao Weichu’s arrogant attitude and had already revealed his dissatisfaction to his face.
Zhao Weichu asked people to stare at the sword behind him. He was extremely displeased. He thought that this person had disdained cultivating in the Dragon Gate Sect back then. He thought that his talent was outstanding and his cultivation was superior to others. He never thought that his cultivation was not high. His temper was really not small.
Zhao Weichu raised his eyebrows and said unhappily, “I heard that you are also a master swordsman in the Northwest Region. Could it be that you want to test the might of my Junyang Sword?”
The atmosphere on Cloud Cliff suddenly became tense. Chang Xi only looked coldly at Zhao Weichu, who looked down on Chen Xun, and did not intend to help them.
Luo Yuze knew that Chen Xun also had an arrogant temper and quickly interrupted, “Jun Yang Sword, Zhao Weichu, is a sword addict of our Dragon Sect. When he sees a sword master, he wants to hold back and compete. He doesn’t know how to see the situation.”
“Senior Brother Zhao misunderstood.” Chen Xun smiled and took out the Heavenly Jun Blazing Sun Shield from his spatial ring. “I have a senior brother who entered the Heavenly Jun Secret Realm fifty years ago and obtained this shield. It’s very similar to the ancient sword and talisman markings on Senior Brother Zhao’s back. My cultivation is low, so I’m far from being a match for Senior Brother Zhao. Senior Brother Zhao, don’t make things difficult for me.”
Chen Xun sighed in his heart. He thought to himself, there really weren’t many direct disciples of the six sects who didn’t have eyes above the top.
Even if he didn’t look at True Monarch Tao Jinghong’s face, he wouldn’t go up and fight at this critical moment when his eyebrows were burning.
Zhao Weichu glanced at the Heavenly Jun Raging Sun Shield and frowned slightly. He did not intend to explain the origin of the ancient sword behind him. He said, “We are here for the Demon Execution Calendar Refinement. Since you do not intend to compete, then we will take our leave first.”
Seeing Zhao Weichu’s attitude, Ji Lie and Scarlet Pine both frowned slightly and sighed in their hearts. However, they had traveled hundreds of thousands of kilometers to reinforce Tu Shan and could not say anything about them.
Song Xuanyi swept his gaze over Chen Xun and politely cupped his fists to say goodbye to everyone, “See you later.” Following Zhao Weichu, he and the other disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect transformed into more than a hundred rainbow shadows and flew south.
************************
Luo Yuze didn’t expect Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others to leave immediately. Luo Yuze’s face was full of helplessness and bitterness.
He had worked in the Governor-General’s Mansion of the Northwest Region these past few years and had stayed in the Old Dragon Lake north of the Thousand Devil Sand Sea. However, since eleven years ago, Chen Xun had been killed by Xia Xiangyi and had fallen into the sea of flames, he had never seen Chen Xun again.
However, over the years, he had gradually realized Chen Xun’s importance in the Northwest Domain. Not to mention the other three hundred mountain and river chariots in the Old Dragon Lake, who would dare to say that Chen Xun was not important?
However, when he thought of how unhappy he was when he first met Chen Xun in Wushan, it was no wonder that Zhao Weichu, Song Xuanyi, and the others were so disdainful of Chen Xun that they were eager to leave Heavenly Pillar Peak.
Song Xuanyi and Zhao Weichu naturally weren’t afraid to offend Chen Xun, but Luo Yuze knew that Chen Xun wasn’t angry. The two of them had just met when they were in a bad mood. Then, how would they open their mouths to talk about the next thing?
Chen Xun saw that there were more than ten people in the Dragon Gate Sect who did not follow Song Xuanyi. Zhao Weichu and the others left, and the person leading them also had the cultivation of the Origin Core Realm. He politely asked, “Senior Brother?”
“Dragon Gate Sect Tool Cultivator Master You greets Pavilion Master Chen!” Headmaster You, unlike Song Xuanyi and Zhao Weichu, bowed politely to Chen Xun.
Chen Xun no longer pretended to be a Marquis of Azure Water, and his current official identity was the Pavilion Master of the Kui Dragon Pavilion.
Chen Xun and the Headmaster paraded. Seeing that there were more than ten people behind him, he thought to himself that they were all artificers from the Dragon Gate Sect, so they didn’t follow Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others to the Thousand Devil Sand Sea.
Without Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others, this side became spacious.
Master Crimson Pine arranged for his disciples to summon the rest of the Dragon Gate Sect to the Cloud Cliff side hall to rest. He, Ji Lie, Chang Xi, and Chen Xun invited Luo Yuze and the Headmaster to swim into the secret room to discuss the matter.
“In the past few years, the Fallen Star Sea’s demon race has also become restless. Tao shi has no choice but to stay in Danshan to guard it. This time, God-controller Mansion did not recruit disciples from the Southeast and East Regions. This time, it was still Junior Brother Song. Junior Brother Zhao and the others volunteered to lead Junior Brothers to assist Tu Shan. Junior Brother Song and the others weren’t included in the Governor’s Mansion. Tao shi originally wanted them to temporarily stay at the Heavenly Pillar Peak for calendar refinement, but he didn’t expect them to rush into the Thousand Devil Sand Sea to execute the devil … “Luo Yuze explained awkwardly.
Chen Xun and Ji Lie exchanged a glance. They thought to themselves, Tao Jinghong originally hoped that Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others would be able to increase the defensive strength of Heavenly Pillar Peak by heading north. They had just arrived at Heavenly Pillar Peak when they hurriedly left. It seemed that they were looking down on the poor appearance of the Divine Night Haoran Sect from the bottom of their hearts.
Chen Xun only smiled in his heart. He looked down on Tianzhu Peak as he looked down on it. Although Tianzhu Peak was the entrance of the Nature’s Night Sect, it was also the front line of the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor to resist the demons. It had indeed shattered a bit. There was not a single trace of sect aura in it.
However, since Headmaster You and the others hadn’t followed Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others away, Chen Xun was rather surprised. Could it be that they were able to look up to Tianzhu Peak instead?
Seeing the doubt in Chen Xun’s eyes, the Headmaster smiled and said, “Xuan Yi, but Chu and the others came to the Tu Mountain Calendar to refine. They can’t sit still, but I was ordered by Tao shi to hand these two Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formations over to Pavilion Master Chen …”
Headmaster You removed more than ten storage bags from his waist and handed them to Chen Xun.
The power of the Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formation could not be compared to that of the Heaven and Earth Formation, but it was not under the 128-pillar Mountain River Sealing Formation. It was precisely a top-grade sealing formation that the Heavenly Pillar Peak had always urgently needed, but had never been able to obtain.
If Tianzhu Peak and Canglan New City could have two Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formations to strengthen their defenses, they would be able to bring out the advantages of the four Reincarnation Realm disciples. At the very least, they would be able to increase the defenses of these two important places by several times.
Even if hundreds of thousands of magical creatures surged over, the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis’ Manor still had the strength to fight to the death in these two important places.
Chen Xun wasn’t in a hurry to take over the ten-odd storage bags.
Logically speaking, True Monarch Tao Jinghong should know that he had already given Marquis Azure Water to Ji Dongze. As for the two Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formations, Headmaster You should have given them to Ji Lie or Martial Uncle Crimson Pine.
Seeing that Chen Xun was not moving, Headmaster Fu Ziyou thought that he was indeed worthy of being regarded as an important figure by Tao shi. He directly explained his intention, “Apart from the two Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formations, we also brought a lot of other formations and artifacts to enhance the defense of Heavenly Pillar Peak. I hope that Pavilion Master Chen can deduce a set of Spirit Gathering restrictions to be passed on to the Dragon Gate Sect in the future.”
“Oh, that’s easy to say.” Chen Xun smiled and took the storage bags. Even if the Dragon Gate Sect didn’t bring out the two Heavenly Star Dragon Severing Formations this time, and Tao Jinghong asked him to deduce a new set of Spirit Gathering restrictions, how could he refuse?
Seeing that Chen Xun didn’t refuse and took over more than ten storage bags, the Headmaster You knew that he was confident and sighed in his heart.
If Chen Xun hadn’t been in seclusion for three years to deduce the new Spirit Gathering Restraint and Luo Yuze had been guarding Chen Xun’s cave for three years, he would never have believed that Chen Xun had such deep attainments in artifact forging.
Amongst the many artifact forging grandmasters in Cloud Continent, there were only a handful of them with such profound attainments, right?
Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu, and the others were not used to Chen Xun’s low cultivation and arrogant nature. Back then, they had actually rejected Tao shi’s invitation to join the Dragon Gate Sect, but they didn’t know that he really had the qualifications to be arrogant.
At the peak of the Divine Night Sect, there were more than 20,000 disciples at the Reincarnation Realm, but the total number of disciples above the Tian Yuan Realm, Dharma Protectors, and Elders added together was only over 200. If the Divine Night Sect had enough mountains and rivers chariots at that time, it would mean that the combat strength of the Divine Night Sect above the Heaven Origin Realm would explode tenfold.
“Deducing a new Spirit Gathering Restriction won’t be completed in a few days. I can only remember this matter in my heart at this moment.”
Chen Xun didn’t know what Headmaster You was thinking, but he asked Luo Yuze straightforwardly,
“At this moment, God-controller Mansion already knows that more than a hundred Heavenly Demons will enter Cloud Continent and hide in the Demon Ruins Mouth Demon Array. What exactly are the arrangements for the Old Dragon Lake?”
“I don’t know the specific plan,” Luo Yuze told the truth. “The Grand Elder of the Xuandu Sect, True Monarch Ku An, has already come to the Old Dragon Lake to guard it. The Governor-General’s Manor does not intend to send troops directly to Tianzhu Peak, but after breaking through the Demon Array, hundreds of thousands of magical creatures will definitely scatter and collapse. At that time, I hope that the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor will be able to defend the line between Tianzhu Peak and the Azure Dragon Ridge.
Chen Xun looked at Ji Lie and Master Crimson Pine. Seeing that none of them had any objections, he didn’t say anything.
Old Dragon Lake had excluded them this time, so they didn’t want to use the forces of the Four Divergent Sects and Azure Water Manor as cannon fodder. This meant that Old Dragon Lake should be able to gather enough crushing pressure before attacking the Demon Ruins Mouth Demon Array.
That’s good.
Chen Xun and the others were only worried that the situation would deteriorate and get out of hand, causing Cang Lan’s tens of millions of lives to be in danger. They did not intend to fight with the Old Dragon Lake for any battle results.
Although he was extremely jealous of the hundred plus Heavenly Yao level demon generals, it was more important for him to resolve this crisis first.
