The Great Wild God - Chapter 387
Chapter 387 Each Trying to Cheat the Other
The entrance to the Profound Armament Hall of the Underground Dao Palace inadvertently closed. Chen Xun and the others didn’t notice anything unusual in the corridor of the Profound Armament Hall, so they directly let people rush in aggressively.
The disciples of the Shaoxi clan were caught off guard. They dispersed and took out their magical artifacts. Spiritual light flashed violently for a moment, propping up layers upon layers of Profound Light Spiritual Shields, blocking the dozens of Ce Heavenly Guards outside the corridor of the Profound Armament Hall, preventing them from taking half a step over the lightning pool.
More than a dozen Ce Tianwei were wearing black scale armor. The saber halberd in his hand flickered with a cold light, and fresh blood dripped down from the edge of the blade. Blood dripped onto the smooth jade steps like mirrors. “Ding dong” was like a huge drum beating in the hearts of everyone.
Chen Xun and the others entered the Underground Dao Palace, but Shao Xiyan ordered the disciples with low cultivation to stay on the ground and not let them in together. Judging from the murderous look on Ce Tianwei’s face, he presumably broke into Kaiyang Valley and scattered the Shaoxi Clan disciples guarding the ground. They didn’t even have a chance to send a warning message.
Chen Xun frowned slightly. He didn’t expect the Ce Tian Manor to be really domineering. Fortunately, he had Du Liangyong lead the Crimson Star Palace disciples who followed Gu Xinyue to withdraw from Long Mountain first. If he stayed in Kaiyang Valley and had these arrogant Ce Tian Wei forcefully barge in, he didn’t know how many people would die.
Shao Xiyan stood up, his eyes gloomy with the blood-dripping blade in Ce Tianwei’s hand. His face was ashen as he asked, “Daoist Wei, what do you mean?”
“If some of us hadn’t stayed in the mountains to search for spiritual herbs, we wouldn’t have discovered that there was another secret hidden underground. Shaoxi Yan, it would be very tight for you to hide it from us!” ‘”Shaoxi Yan, the trash you left behind outside the valley entrance still breathes a sigh of relief. If you don’t care about the lives of those trash, you can fight me.” Daoist Adept Dharma Form said sinisterly, “Young Xi Yan, the trash you left behind outside the valley entrance still breathes a sigh of relief.”
“The Shaoxi Clan disciples are not as skilled as others. I can’t blame Daoist Wei for teaching you a lesson.” Although Shao Xiyan’s expression was unsightly, as long as the Shaoxi Clan disciples guarding outside were fine, it wasn’t that he couldn’t bear it and signaled Shaoxi Kang to go out first to see the casualties of the disciples outside.
“Marquis Azure Water is really scheming. Just now, he also sang a good show.” Daoist Wei looked at the Copper Thunder Pillar and his eyes shone with a bright divine light, as if he wanted to search through Chen Xun’s internal organs. “You actually dared to collude with the Shaoxi clan and the Azure Scaled Demon Clan to deceive Lord Spring Mausoleum!”
Chen Xun saw Wei running up and labeling him colluding with the demon race. He sneered in his heart. He wasn’t afraid that Chun Lingjun would do anything to him in Long Mountain, but when he returned to Cloud Continent, the accusation that Chun Lingjun had framed him for colluding with the demon race would be tricky.
“Senior Shaoxi and I accidentally discovered that since Daoist Wei can’t be concealed from you, we have nothing to say. Daoist Wei, you can’t scare anyone if you don’t collude. Everyone goes into the Underground Palace to retrieve treasures, depending on their abilities and opportunities. Could it be that Daoist Wei will say that Daoist Chun Lingjun colluded with the demons this time in Mountain Long?” Chen Xun walked out of the corridor and stared coldly at Daoist Wei’s pupils. Although Daoist Wei’s cultivation was at the middle stage of the Dharma Realm, the pressure he exuded had no effect on him at all.
“This person comes from the Wei Clan. His name is Xuan Cheng, and his dao name is Xuan Cheng Zi. He is one of the top six Dharma Formations of the Spring Mausoleum Monarch.” Chang Xi came out of the Void Origin Pearl, held the Spring Breeze Transforming Rain Sword in her hand, and sent a voice transmission to tell Chen Xun about Wei Xuancheng’s background.
It was also the first time Wei Xuancheng and Chen Xun had met in Long Mountain, but if they had known that he was a reckless master, there was no way they could have frightened him with just a few words. Otherwise, True Monarch Crimson Brow would not have hated his bones.
Wei Xuancheng swept his gaze towards the halls on both sides of the corridor. Only two of the hall’s restrictions were broken. It seemed that it wasn’t too late for him to rush back. He sneered and looked at Shao Xiyan, asking, “Do you want to enter the Underground Dao Palace to compete for the Secret Treasure with your own abilities and opportunities?”
Shaoxi Yan naturally hoped to hide it from Ce Tian Manor, but Wei Xuancheng and the others rushed over and could not be expelled. He could only endure this breath and let them participate together.
Seeing that Shao Xiyan had no objections, the sword sheath behind Wei Xuancheng let out a dragon cry and saw a streak of light sword shadow rush out and directly hack towards the second hall.
There were four bottles of Profound Armament Seals in the second hall.
Chen Xun didn’t care if the four bottles of Profound Armament Seals had fallen into the hands of the Shaoxi clan or God-controller Mansion, but if Wei Xuancheng wanted to directly blow open the second hall, he would definitely activate the four bottles of Profound Armament Seals.
Chen Xun was the closest to Wei Xuancheng, and with a single punch, he shattered the streak of light sword shadow that was galloping towards the entrance of the main hall.
A spirit sword flew back towards Wei Xuancheng.
Although Wei Xuancheng did not lose all his strength, he did not expect Chen Xun to shatter the flowing light sword shadow that the spirit sword had gathered with a single punch. When he was furious, seven spirit swords were pulled out from the sword sheath behind him and hung around Chen Xun. The tip of the sword was pointing straight at Chen Xun’s eyebrows, like seven evil dragons ready to kill Chen Xun at any time. He shouted angrily, “Chen Xun, what do you mean?”
“Daoist Wei, you can also see the three words’ Profound Armament Palace ‘written on the ancient seal outside the corridor. If you act recklessly and activate all the Big Dipper Profound Armaments in the Underground Dao Palace, how do we deal with them?” Chen Xun asked coldly.
“There are only eight bottles of Profound Armament Seals guarding the Kaiyang Valley. How many can be hidden in the Underground Dao Palace?” Seeing that Chen Xuncheng was afraid that he would act rashly to excite the Big Dipper Profound Armament Seal, Wei Xuancheng sneered and said, “Otherwise, how many years and months would it take for someone like you to search through the dozens of great halls in the Underground Dao Palace?”
Chen Xun’s mind stirred. Wei Xuancheng barged in from outside. How could he possibly know that they had broken through the restrictions of the formation and searched for the Profound Armament Seal? How could they be certain that the first hall that the Shaoxi clan had just searched for was empty?
It seemed that after Wei Xuancheng walked into the corridor, someone secretly transmitted a sound transmission, telling him everything that had happened in the underground palace.
Chen Xun’s mind spun extremely quickly. She thought that Gu Xinyue, Rong Ying, and Gu Yuanchang should not be God-controller Mansion’s spies. Behind him, they shouldn’t have had the chance to communicate with Wei Xuancheng, but the 30 plus disciples who followed Gu Xinyue to join the Kui Long Pavilion had left Mountain Long with Du Liangyong first. They didn’t know that there was a secret hall underground in the Kaiyang Valley, nor did they know what had happened in the underground palace.
Chen Xun looked at Shao Xi Yan. Shao Xi Yan immediately understood that there were spies from the Ce Tian Prefecture beside him.
Who should be this spy?
Not likely to be a direct descendant of the Shaoxi Clan, nor was it likely to be a direct descendant disciple of the Crimson Star Palace. Instead, it was possible that they were a dozen or so rogue cultivators who had managed to survive in Mountain Long with great difficulty.
But how did these rogue cultivators connect with Chun Lingjun?
Was it Song Xuanyi and the others who met up with Chun Lingjun first?
If a cultivator could send a secret message and communicate directly through his spiritual will, it would be hard to find out if there really was a mole.
Wei Xuancheng had just said that the cultivators of Cloud Continent had stayed in the mountains to gather spiritual herbs, so he had no intention of discovering the secret of their staying in Kaiyang Valley. This was only Wei Xuancheng’s explanation.
Shao Xi Yan’s expression was rather ugly. He guessed that Wei Xuan Cheng would know so much only if there were at least two Ce Tian Prefecture’s inner subordinates beside him. However, it was not convenient to capture these two people in front of Wei Xuan Cheng at this moment.
When Wei Xuancheng saw Chen Xun, Shao Xi Yan’s expression changed. He knew that he had slipped up and changed the topic, saying, “Even if there are a few Big Dipper Profound Weapons hidden in the Underground Dao Palace, if we can’t suppress them together, it won’t take long for Chun Lingjun and Palace Master Bi Bo to return. This is much faster than a search for a broken array formation.”
Shao Xiyan took a day to open the first hall. Seeing that there was nothing inside, he lost his patience. If he really did as Chen Xun had said, he would first cut off the immortal remnant soul attached to the restriction in the main hall, and then search the entire Profound Armament Hall one by one, it would only take him a month or two …
It was still unclear what would happen to the seven races’ Mirage Beasts. After wasting so much time here, how could the other six forbidden underground dao palaces be explored?
In addition, Mountain Long would slowly recover after exhausting his Spiritual Energy.
The more time they wasted here, the stronger the formation restrictions needed to enter the second and second forbidden tunnels.
Shao Xiyan said, “Should we wait for Chun Lingjun and Qing Chang to come over before forcefully breaking the restriction?”
Prior to this, the Blue Wave Hall’s Palace Master Yuan Qingchang had led the Blue Scaled Clan’s main force northward to divert the Spring Mausoleum Lord’s gaze so that he could monopolize the treasures of the immortals hidden in the underground palace.
Now that the secrets of the Underground Dao Palace have been uncovered, it would be better to wait for Chun Lingjun, Yuan Qingchang, and the others to return to Kaiyang Valley before forcefully breaking the restrictions of the main hall …
Wei Xuancheng said, “Shaoxi Yan, it would be great if you could think that way.” He coldly looked at Chen Xun and asked, “Chen Xun, what did you say?”
Chen Xun smiled coldly. How could he not understand Wei Xuancheng’s dessert scheme?
Wei Xuancheng was thinking that Chun Lingjun and Yuan Qingchang, two Celestial Realm experts, would return to Kaiyang Valley and not even be able to drink a bowl of soup. However, they did not know that there were three additional bottles of Profound Armament Seals. One bottle of Profound General Seal was already in his pocket.
“Daoist Wei, what Senior Shao Xi says is all right. However, we are weak and do not dare to fight against the Big Dipper Profound Armament. Whether we wait for the return of the Spring Mausoleum Monarch or the Blue Wave Palace Master, do you want us to retreat first?” Chen Xun said.
There were four bottles of Profound Armament Seals in the second secret hall. He and Chang Xi were naturally not afraid of anything, but in such a narrow corridor, Gu Xinyue, Rong Ying, and Gu Yuanchang were only at the Heaven Origin Realm. If they couldn’t dodge, they would only have broken limbs and bones.
He temporarily didn’t want too many people to know the secrets in the Void Origin Pearl, so he decided to withdraw first.
Shao Xiyan also gestured for Shaoxi Kang to lead the crowd out of the underground palace.
When Chen Xun and the others returned to the ground, they saw that the Shaoxi Clan disciples who had stayed outside had been crippled all over the ground. Wei Xuancheng had left more than his hands behind, but he didn’t kill them all.
After an incense stick of time, Chun Lingjun’s enormous and gorgeous boat returned from the middle foot of the Long Mountain. However, apart from the Yan Ji Xiang formed by the four demonic birds, Chun Lingjun did not bring back all the cultivators of Ce Tian Manor and Yun Zhou.
The seven races’ mirages met at the middle foot of the Long Mountain. The Spring Mausoleum Monarch wanted to leave the Ce Tian Manor and the cultivators of Cloud Continent there to restrain the seven races’ mirages.
Palace Master Bi Bo even returned to Yang Opening Valley with the God Refining Tower in his hand.
