Sect Master's Immortal Journey-Chapter 742: Beginning

Dong Qiang's curse failed, and instead, he suffered a backlash. Now facing five prepared Primordial Spirit True Monarchs, he immediately fell into dire straits. If it weren't for the traps set beforehand, even if 2-3 Primordial Spirit True Monarchs surrounded him in a direct confrontation, they might not be able to defeat him. But now, trapped as he was, it was difficult for him to escape.

The group of Gold Core Daoist Masters following him was loyal enough. Faced with the enemy's sudden attack, they threw themselves into the fray like moths to a flame, hoping to buy him some time.

However, the vast difference between Gold Core Daoist Masters and Primordial Spirit True Monarchs couldn't be compensated solely with bravery and fearlessness. The five Primordial Spirit True Monarchs had been waiting for this moment. They had accumulated their strength and unleashed their killing moves.

The broken bodies of these Gold Core Daoist Masters were tossed aside, showing that they were not even a match for a single blow.

Meng Zhang's old friend, Daoist Master Black Fox, was a cunning individual and did not rush to fight like the others. Instead, he turned around to escape. Since they were old friends, Meng Zhang kindly gave him a parting gift.

With a single step, Meng Zhang appeared behind him. With a pointed finger, black and white Qi flew out, directly cutting his body into two halves.

This figure, who had once claimed seniority in front of Meng Zhang and made him cautious, was now so vulnerable that he was easily dispatched.

The Primordial Spirit True Monarch with the codename "Old Blade" sneered contemptuously, as if mocking Meng Zhang for only going after soft targets.

Ignoring him, Meng Zhang was about to join in the siege against True Monarch Dong Qiang. The sacrifices made by the group of Gold Core Daoist Masters were not in vain; they managed to delay the enemy's advance and gave Dong Qiang True Monarch some reaction time.

Facing five prepared Primordial Spirit True Monarchs in a siege, even in a direct confrontation, Dong Qiang True Monarch's chances were slim. And now, he was clearly caught in an ambush.

Knowing that he had no chance unless he gave it his all, Dong Qiang True Monarch decided to use his last resort. His Primordial Spirit burned fiercely, unleashing power far greater than usual.

The ground began to shake violently, and stones and earth flew as the underground passage collapsed. Dong Qiang True Monarch employed the power of the Earth Grand Dao, completely demolishing this secret base.

He didn't expect the collapse to bury the enemy entirely; he just hoped to create enough disturbance to buy himself a chance to escape. The endless stream of stones and earth tilted down from above, enveloping everyone.

Even Meng Zhang, the one with the least experience, remained undisturbed and didn't waste any energy on these distractions. The massive flow of falling earth and stones was easily pushed away before reaching them.

Fiery flames erupted from the ground, surrounding Dong Qiang True Monarch's body. Cold moonlight descended from the sky, firmly enveloping him, leaving him with no place to hide.

Red Pig True Monarch and Jade Rabbit True Monarch were equally powerful compared to Dong Qiang True Monarch. Even in a one-on-one battle, they might not lose to this old man. With a tacit understanding, they temporarily suppressed him.

At this time, the Primordial Spirit True Monarchs with the codenames "Old Blade" and "Wood" simultaneously displayed their Grand Dao powers, trying to seize the opportunity to trap Dong Qiang True Monarch completely.

Cyan-colored streams of Qi hovered above the earth, transforming into vines and gigantic trees. Countless vines intertwined and twisted, rushing forward. ŕ𝙖₦ọβΕ𝘚

Gigantic trees rolled in the sky, threatening to crush everything below.

Although Meng Zhang had the intention to take it easy, since he had already promised to lend a hand, he couldn't show any signs of slacking. When it was time to exert effort, he had to do so.

Moreover, the enemy was in an obvious disadvantage, and the chance to strike a dog while it's down could not be missed.

Meng Zhang's figure flickered to another location, already preparing to unleash his killing move.

Meng Zhang had recently achieved the Primordial Spirit realm, and his experience in battles between Primordial Spirit True Monarchs was limited. Apart from paying attention to Dong Qiang True Monarch, he also observed the battle between Book Mountain True Monarch and True Monarch White Crow on the other side.

Experience in battles between Primordial Spirit True Monarchs was precious, and even while involved in the situation himself, Meng Zhang couldn't help but carefully observe, hoping to gain something from it.

Although there were many records about such battles in the heritage left by the Taiyi Sect predecessors, paper knowledge can only take one so far, real understanding comes from practice. Without actual participation, the gains from mere speculation were limited.

Knowing that significant changes were about to happen in the Jiuqu League, Meng Zhang had to seize every opportunity to strengthen himself.

Several Primordial Spirit True Monarchs on the scene had already made their moves, and Meng Zhang was now comparing the techniques they employed with what he had learned from the heritage.

As a result, Meng Zhang's actions were half a beat slower, placing him behind the others.

As for that guy "Old Blade," he indeed had the confidence to back up his talk. He made an extraordinary move as an almost infinite amount of killing intent gathered around him, and beams of golden light fell from the sky.

The golden light converged the killing intent, forming a gigantic golden blade that stood arrogantly above his head.
