The Great Wild God - Chapter 314

Chapter 314 Pre-emptive Strike
Tao Jinghong was over two thousand years old, and he was a contemporary of Guo Song and Chisong Zi. Although he was considered to be extremely young among the last ten-odd Empyrean True Monarchs left in Cloud Continent, the Tao Clan had reproduced countless generations in the Southeast Region since Tao Jinghong.

Tao Siyue was Tao Jinghong’s seventeenth grandson, and her bloodline was already very distant. However, if any of the descendants of the Tao Clan were talented and extravagant, they would still receive preferential treatment in the Dragon Gate Sect.

The Tao Clan benefited from Tao Jinghong’s rise to prominence in the Southeast Region and was a great clan that had been passed down for more than two thousand years. Even without the protection of their ancestor, Tao Jinghong, and the Dragon Gate Sect, there was still a Dharma Form within the clan. Five Elemental Pills and Six Adepts were far from second-and third-rate clans and sects.

With Chen Xun’s casual sword strike, the Crimson Rainbow Golden Ni Sword shattered the large gap in the grain of rice. A good Earth-ranked Spirit Sword’s power was forcefully reduced by thirty to forty percent. This was a life-and-death magical artifact that Tao Siyue had cultivated at the same time. This time, the damage would probably require two to three years of refining before it could recover to its original state.

Tao Siyue hated Chen Xun so much that her teeth itched, but she also knew that even if she and Chen Xun were both at the peak of the Heaven Origin Realm, there was a world of difference in whether or not they had comprehended Dao Insight.

Only after comprehending the Dao Insight could one be considered to be at the peak of the Heaven Origin Realm. In time, one would find a spiritual land where one could cultivate quietly. It was only a matter of time before one could cultivate the Origin Pill.

After comprehending the Dao Insight and cultivating the Origin Spirit, apart from the fact that the Spiritual Essence wasn’t as condensed as the Origin Core Daoist’s, there was no essential difference in cultivation realm. At the very least, it wouldn’t be suppressed by the Origin Core Daoist to the point that he didn’t have the ability to retaliate.

Chen Xun casually slashed his sword. He didn’t seem to have injected the slightest bit of spiritual energy into it, but instead, he condensed the supreme Dao Insight into it, borrowing the power of heaven and earth to destroy her Scarlet Rainbow Golden Ni Sword.

Although Tao Siyue knew about the relationship between her and Chen Xun, across the chasms of intent, It may take her decades of hard work to cross over, Moreover, before she was determined to look for Chen Xun’s misfortune, she had expected that this person would be so arrogant and live in the Northwest Domain for so long. She had her own capital to be arrogant, but she had never expected that the Dao Insight Chen Xun had condensed with this sword would be so strong that it gave her the illusion of locking the heavens and earth. In an instant, she had forgotten to dodge, or at that instant, it was impossible to dodge.

Otherwise, the Scarlet Rainbow Golden Ni Sword would not have suffered such damage.

Song Xuanyi, Zhao Weichu had cultivated the Origin Pill twenty or thirty years ago. The two of them had been sharpening their Dao Insight for twenty or thirty years, and the power of Dao Insight might not necessarily have the power to lock up a hundred feet of heaven and earth, right?

**************************

The demons brazenly moved, and now that their eyebrows were on fire, how could Chen Xun care about Tao Siyue’s little thoughts?

Crimson Pine Child, Hu Taiyan is leading the main force of the Divine Night Nature’s Nature Sect disciples to take charge of the Heavenly Pillar Peak headquarters. Zhao Chengen, Su Shousi, and the others commanded ten thousand elite barbarian martial artists to stand by at any time in the Southern Foothills Sealing Formation.

Chen Xun and Chang Xi led six groups of Sword Cultivators and Martial Cultivators who could perform the Profound Evolution Battle Formation. They were divided into seven Profound Thunder Chariots and followed Ji Lie to Iron Star Fort to observe the strange movements of the magical creatures at the entrance of the Devil Ruins.

These four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor were already able to gather the strongest mobility.

The six groups of sword xiu and martial xiu were all led by Heaven Origin Realm experts. The profound weapons and battle armor were all Earth Grade magical artifacts, and they could even fight against late Origin Core Realm experts.

Among them, Su Junyuan, Zong Tu, and the other twelve were the strongest, and their attacks weren’t very strong. However, as the top-grade Earth-ranked magical artifacts, the Profound Evolution Spirit Armor had twelve sets. With the Profound Evolution Battle Formation, they were able to withstand the attacks of Dharma Aspect Realm experts, and they were like immovable rocks entering and leaving the Sea of Magic Beasts.

Of the seven Profound Thunder Chariots, there were a total of 60 peak Reincarnation Realm disciples hiding among them, and they were even stronger than the seven Origin Pill Taoist who specialized in lightning magic techniques.

Not to mention that Ji Lie had half a step into the Dharma Realm, and the Great Freedom Sword had been immersed in a hundred years of bitter cultivation. Its combat strength was definitely not inferior to Fu Yan, Cang Yazi, Marquis of the Origin realm, Jiang Xu, and the others. Chang Xi’s Spring Breeze Transforming Rain Sword had already advanced to the realm of One Will Imperial Hundred, not to mention that there were more than a hundred powerful puppet combat weapons hidden within the Void Origin Pearl. Old Kui’s Immortal Binding Ropes had made him appear and disappear, and the Void Origin Pearl had all sorts of wonderful uses …

However, Chen Xun knew in his heart that the power they had gathered seemed extremely powerful, but it was still as small as a drop in the face of the sea of demons that surged out from the fiendish array.

In the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, there were tens of thousands of azure flames scattered all over the place. They did not extinguish, nor did they seem to be extinguished.

The violent snowstorm landed within a thousand feet of the ground and disappeared. The Thousand Devil Sand Sea was still so hot and dry, as if it was a different world from the snow and ice around Heavenly Pillar Peak.

Chen Xun and the others used only an incense stick of time to reach Iron Star Fort.

Daoist Primordial Core, who was stationed in Iron Star Fort, was a disciple of Xuandu Sect, Daoist Chu Yue.

Although the Iron Star Castle was strong, it was extremely small. Chen Xun and the others wouldn’t squeeze into the Iron Star Castle and stopped twenty miles away from the Iron Star Castle. Daoist Chu Yue personally rushed over to meet Chen Xun and the others and saluted Ji Lie and the others, “Daoist Ji, Fairy Cuiwei, Pavilion Master Chen …”

Although Chen Xun hadn’t cultivated the Origin Pill, he had been in charge of guarding the Iron Star Iron for a year. Daoist Chu Yue naturally knew how high Chen Xun’s role and status in Canglan was.

Since Chen Xun had been ambushed by Xia Xiangyi and stayed in the Flame Sea for seven years without dying, he was qualified to win the attention of the sects in the Northwest Region.

In addition, the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor had extremely bad relations with Fu Yan and Yuan Wu Marquis Manor. As a result, they did not obey the orders of the Governor’s Manor. Fu Yan and Jiang Jue also regarded the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor as thorns in their eyes. However, to Adept Chu Yue, who was from the Xuandu Sect, there was really no need to treat them like fire and water.

Actually, not only did Adept Chu Yue not treat the four sects and the Azure Water Marquis Manor like fire and water, her personal friendship was quite good. Adept Chu Yue would inform the Governor of any major movements in time.

Not only the sects of the Northwest Region, but also the Xuandu Cult hoped that there would be forces in the Northwest Region that could check and balance the Marquis Manor of Yuan Dynasty. This was in the best interest of the first sect of the Northern Region, Xuandu Cult. This was actually called the first sect of the Northwest Region and the Northern Region.

A large number of talented disciples and treasures from the Northwest naturally gathered in the Xuandu Sect.

Daoist Chu Yue’s attitude towards Tao Siyue and the others was slightly colder.

Although the strength and foundation of the Dragon Gate Sect were stronger than those of the Xuandu Sect, they were also among the six sects. The Dragon Gate Sect was also far away in the Southeast Region. Daoist Chu Yue truly did not have the interest to curry favor with the disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect who had high regard for the Northwest Region and treated it like a wilderness.

“What exactly happened?”

Ji Lie looked at the magical creature reflected by the floating mirror. It was like a black torrent that stretched for more than a hundred kilometers. It rushed to Golden Castle in the south. It did not directly attack Golden Castle, but split into two. It circled Golden Castle and continued to advance south.

This scene left everyone stunned. There were far more than a million magical creatures. This was clearly abandoning the Demon Ruins Mouth Demonic Array and using all of their strength to attack the Old Dragon Lake, which was located on the northern side of the Azure Water Great Rift Valley.

Yuanwu New City was located in the deep valley basin of the Southern Ridge, more than three thousand kilometers away from the entrance of the Devil Ruins.

Over the years, apart from limited areas, Tu Mountain has been covered with snow and glaciers.

Apart from experts at the peak of the Heaven Origin Realm, it was also extremely difficult for ordinary cultivators to endure such a fierce cold fiend and travel more than three thousand kilometers on top of the Absolute Mountain Ridge of Tu Mountain.

As for the people and materials gathered from the Northwest Region and Cloud Continent, if they first gathered in Yuanwu New City and then transferred to the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, there would be many inconveniences.

Ten years ago, the Governor-General’s Manor discovered two Core Formation Flood Dragons that were more powerful than Heavenly Yao level Demon Generals in an underground lake in a cave in the hinterland of the mountains north of the middle section of the Azure Water Great Rift Valley. They called this place the Old Dragon Lake.

After killing the two flood dragons, the Governor-General’s Mansion discovered that the underground cavern was not only thick, but also had more than ten spirit veins gathered within a radius of a hundred kilometers. It was a rare spiritual land that was extremely suitable for building large-scale city villages.

In the past ten years, the Governor-General’s Mansion had done its utmost to build the Old Dragon Lake.

The Governor-General’s Mansion operated the Old Dragon Lake. Not only could it be divided into four sects and the Azure Water Manor’s presence in the northern ridge of the Tu Mountain, even if it completely sealed off the entrance to the Devil Ruins, it would still stay there. At the same time, it is also very convenient to organize the vanguard defense line.

The only drawback was that it was too close to the entrance of the Devil Ruins. It was only eight hundred kilometers away from the entrance. There was also a valley that was more than three thousand feet deep that could be directly passed through the Thousand Devil Sand Sea.

In order to restore his reputation, Mansion of Marquis Martial also removed the only Soul Suppressing Mountain and River Formation in the Northwest Region from Yuanwu New City and set it up in the Old Dragon Lake.

With the Governor’s Mansion wanting to forcefully attack the Demon Ruins Mouth Demon Array, the cultivators gathered from the six sects and the small sects of the Northwest Region were also gathered at the Old Dragon Lake.

Including the Grand Elder of the Xuandu Sect, True Monarch Ku An, and other heaven-defying experts, they were currently guarding the Old Dragon Lake.

How could a million magical creatures not be shocked by Chen Xun, Ji Lie, and the others when they directly attacked the Old Dragon Lake despite the fortifications of the fortresses of Golden Star Fort, Iron Star Fort, and the others?

Could it be that the demons had lost their minds and wanted to use millions of demonic creatures to forcefully shake the old dragon pond with the Heaven and Earth Array?

Not to mention the Heaven and Earth Array set up by the Old Dragon Lake, it might be able to withstand the attacks of Nirvana Realm supreme experts by borrowing thousands of kilometers of Heaven and Earth power. True Monarch Ku An, Fu Yan, Jiang Jue, and the others were leading tens of thousands of Reincarnation Realm cultivators and hundreds of thousands of True Yang Realm disciples to gather in the Old Dragon Lake.

Chen Xun suddenly thought of something and asked Daoist Chu Yue in shock, “Is the Governor’s Mansion planning to tear down the Soul Suppressing Mountain and River Formation of the Old Dragon Lake and bring it to Golden Star Fort?”

Daoist Chu Yue’s heart trembled when she heard this. She said, “I heard that the Governor’s Mansion does have this intention, but when will it be demolished and relocated to Golden Star Fort? Other than True Monarch Ku An, General Fu Yan, and a few Daoist Adepts, no one else knows the details …”

Sealing formations, when defending against attacks from all directions, they had to ensure sufficient defensive power. The protective spirit shield would normally maintain a narrow range of several to ten kilometers in radius.

If the sealing formation was to concentrate the Heavenly Spiritual Energy gathered at a single point and turn it into an offensive force, even if it extended a hundred kilometers away, its offensive power would still not be weaker than a peak Origin Core Realm expert. Within a few kilometers, the offensive power was no weaker than that of a Dharma Realm expert.

This was the power of the Mountain Protection Formation.

The Soul Suppressing Mountain and River Array was a Heaven and Earth Array.

Keep, can keep a hundred miles of land as solid as gold soup; Attack, the offensive stretched for thousands of kilometers, but it was still capable of killing enemies at the Dharma Realm.

The distance between Golden Castle and the entrance of the Devil Ruins was more than two hundred kilometers. If the Governor’s Mansion set up this Soul Suppressing Mountain and River Formation in Golden Castle, even if there was a slight shortage of spiritual energy, it would still be able to support the Governor’s Mansion in attacking the Devil Ruins’ entrance of the Devil Ruins Formation.

Chen Xun could easily guess that the Governor-General’s Manor would withdraw the Soul Suppressing Mountain and River Formation and move it southward. However, when to dismantle it and when to move southward was definitely a secret of the Governor-General’s Manor.

Not to mention that there was no news from Heavenly Pillar Peak, even Daoist Chu Yue, who was guarding Iron Star Fort, did not know the details. How could the demons grasp the opportunity to attack Old Dragon Lake?

Chen Xun would never believe that True Monarch Ku An, Fu Yan, Jiang Jue, and other Dharma Form Adepts were secretly colluding with the demons.

Jiang Jue was greedy for power, but the demons wanted to completely devour Cloud Continent. The remaining bones of the demonic dragon invaded Cloud Continent and killed tens of millions of creatures in a single day. No matter how stupid Jiang Jue was, he wouldn’t be so stupid as to plot against the demons.

Moreover, if billions of magical creatures poured out, all living beings in Cloud Continent would be devoured. Jiang Ju and Jiang Bin, even if they ascended to the throne, what good would it do?

Chen Xun did not believe that True Monarch Ku An, Fu Yan, Jiang Jue, and other Dharma Form Adepts would leak their secrets, but in the current situation, the demons must have obtained extremely crucial information before they brazenly attacked …
