Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 466 - 461 Yin Yang Two Realms Gate, Muddying the Waters_1
"We can act now!"
The token at the Shenxiao Sect disciple’s waist vibrated, and a hint of joy flashed across his eyes.
"Meeting is fate. You are lucky to have encountered us."
"Stay here obediently, and you’ll be safe and sound."
Before leaving, the Shenxiao Sect disciple did not forget to remind Jia Ren.
There is an essential difference between righteous Cultivators and those of the Demonic Path, with a great disparity in how they treat ordinary Cultivators. If it were a Demon Sect cultivator, he would certainly kill to keep a secret.
"Thank you for the warning."
The Insect External Incarnation adopted a frightened appearance, staying securely inside the stone house.
"Junior Brother Dongfang, why bother wasting time with a low-level Loose Cultivator? Let’s quickly complete the Sect’s task!"
"Break!"
The Forbidden Spirit Stone House posed no hindrance to them; a flash of green lightning burst through, and a gap was blown open in the door.
Eleven Shenxiao Sect disciples filed out, leaving only Jia Ren alone inside the stone house.
"The show can begin!"
In the distance, a pair of distinctly black-and-white pupils floated in the Void, quietly watching the Forbidden Spirit Stone House, undetected by any of the eleven departing Shenxiao Sect cultivators.
Eh, did he notice me?
Or is it just my imagination?
His eyes seemed to sense something, sweeping toward the only person left in the stone house. This person was hiding in a corner, appearing scared and showing no intention of leaving. Such timid behavior also earned the disdain of the Demon Cultivators from Samsara Valley, who did not consider this person a threat or a concern.
BOOM!
The Shenxiao Sect disciples had just left the stone house when, before they could reach the exit, a large amount of black water suddenly showered down from the ceiling. Several holes appeared in the stone walls, some gushing black water, others emitting plumes of thick black smoke.
"Not good, we’ve been discovered!"
"Thunderlight Infinite Shield!"
From the Void emerged a shield outlined by lightning Inscriptions and symbols, gradually coalescing until it materialized into a massive shield of thunder light. The shield appeared ethereal, giving an impression of unreality.
Defensive Lingbao!
Other cultivators also took action, producing their own Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures.
All eleven cultivators were from the Shenxiao Sect, at the Late Nascent Soul Stage, their treasures mainly consisting of Magical Treasures and Pseudo Spirit Treasures.
A Spiritual Treasure... there was only one.
Likely, it was a life-preserving measure bestowed by the Sect.
Is the Shenxiao Sect so impoverished?
Upon closer thought, which Sect’s collection of Spiritual Treasures could rival that of the Lingbao Sect?
Even True Disciples at the Nascent Soul Stage could obtain a Spiritual Treasure there.
Although the Shenxiao Sect is a top-tier Sect, its wealth of Spiritual Treasures doesn’t compare to the Lingbao Sect. Typically, even Divinity Transformation Stage disciples cannot be guaranteed a single Spiritual Treasure.
The Thunderlight Infinite Shield, similar to the Heavenly Fire God Cover, was a Spiritual Treasure adept at both offense and defense. The incoming poisonous smoke and black water were completely nullified by its thunder light.
"Divine Sword Attracts Thunder!"
A Shenxiao Sect disciple formed a sword gesture with his hands. Thunder abruptly shook the skies as a dazzlingly bright white thunderbolt descended from above, piercing through their stronghold. The white lightning struck a Pseudo Spirit Treasure longsword. Its light transformed into a sword of blazing white divine thunder, carrying the might of heavenly retribution to sweep away all traps in the area.
CRACKLE!
As the Divine Sword Attracts Thunder struck, in the instant the sword light fell, a gray finger of light descended, targeting the Shenxiao Sect disciple in the crowd who was channeling the sword spell.
The Thunderlight Infinite Shield’s defense was all-encompassing, without any blind spots. As the two attacks collided, a teeth-grating sound was heard. The thunder shield, outlined in the Void, began to cave inward, showing signs of collapse.
Within the gray finger light, a Dark Black Finger Bone could faintly be seen, exuding a strange Fierce Sha aura.
This was unmistakably a Spiritual Treasure.
"We’ve been discovered! Fight with all you’ve got!"
"Form the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Array!"
The eleven cultivators each produced a green thunder seal, casting spells in unison.
The sky turned gloomy, dark clouds pressing down. Within the Void, lightning flickered as invisible thunder serpents and electric insects materialized from nothingness, plummeting rapidly. In an instant, the surrounding hundred miles had transformed into an ocean of thunder and lightning.
Nourished by the thunder and lightning, the Thunderlight Infinite Shield grew even stronger than before, forcefully repelling the Dark Black Finger Bone. The Evil Qi aura on the Dark Black Finger Bone diminished somewhat, and its light grew dim. Lightning had always been the nemesis of evil entities. In the clash between the two Spiritual Treasures, the black finger bone was at a disadvantage.
"Evil Spirit Great Array! Form!"
Cultivators dressed in the Taoist Robes of the Dark Spirit Sect, but actually members of the Seven Fiends Temple, surged with various colors of Evil Qi, manifesting different kinds of Sha Spirits.
Yin Sha manifested as terrifying malevolent ghosts, dense with Yin energy, making one feel as if trapped in an ice cellar.
Killing Sha were blood-colored figures wielding dual blades; a mere glance felt like plunging into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Corpse Sha was a towering corpse glowing with golden light, like a king among the dead.
Fierce Sha was a winged, tiger-like beast, its fierce aura intimidating.
Spirit Sha took the form of a faceless Taoist, Dark Sha was a large black Xuan Snake, and Demonic Sha was a huge, horned demonic shadow.
The seven Sha Spirits each had a distinct presence, and every one of them exuded the aura of the Divinity Transformation Stage.
Outside the Evil Spirit Great Array, the Seven Kills True Monarch gripped the Dark Black Finger Bone, his eyes coldly sweeping over the Shenxiao Sect disciples.
"With just you few youngsters, you think you can annihilate the Seven Fiends Temple!"
Since they could no longer hide from the Shenxiao Sect, they dropped the pretense and revealed their true allegiance.
"Kill them all!"
Upon the Seven Kills True Monarch’s command, the seven Sha Spirits fearlessly rushed towards the thunder light area. Seven silhouettes formed of Evil Qi continuously collided with the thunderlight region. Here, the extreme yin and extreme yang forces, incompatible as water and fire, created an area of constant impact and destructive energy.
The eleven Shenxiao Sect disciples all possessed considerable combat prowess. With Divine Skills and treasures that countered the Seven Fiends Temple cultivators, they would have few rivals in one-on-one fights. The Seven Fiends Temple, however, had long been prepared and had lured the Shenxiao Sect disciples into a meticulously laid trap.
Fortunately, the defense of the Thunderlight Infinite Shield was astonishing, safeguarding all the Shenxiao Sect disciples within it, ensuring their safety for the time being.
"Divine Thunder Banish Evil!"
All eleven Shenxiao Sect disciples raised their hands in unison, condensing their respective Divine Thunder Banish Evil treasures. Some transformed their thunder into long swords, others into Thunder Cones, and still others into Bronze Gongs and giant hammers.
The Shenxiao Sect disciples manipulated their thunder-forged treasures, swiftly slashing at the seven Sha Spirits. They were quite clever, not dispersing their attacks but instead concentrating their power on a single Sha Spirit first. Better to break one finger than injure all ten.
The first to be attacked was the faceless Taoist, the Spirit Sha’s incarnation. The other forms of Evil Qi were suppressed by the Divine Thunder, their power reduced to less than half their peak. Only the Spirit Sha was an exception; the Divine Thunder had limited effect on it. The Spirit Sha took on the defensive role, diverting the lightning attacks targeting the other six Sha Spirits. With the Spirit Sha meddling from within, it allowed the seven Sha Spirits to gain the upper hand. Without eliminating this troublemaker, it will be difficult to destroy the seven Sha Spirits.
At this moment, the other Sha Spirits sensed the crisis and finally employed their true methods.
"Xuan Kill Cha Sword!"
"Yin Sha Soul Snatching Hand!"
"Bone Eroding Corpse Cone!"
"Supreme Evil Force!"
"Spirit Sha Melting Water!"
"Dark Spirit Sha Body!"
"Demonic Sha Corrosion!"
All seven Sha Spirits unleashed their corresponding Divine Skills, transforming into seven rays of light to resist the Divine Thunder Banish Evil treasures.
BOOM!
The figure incarnated by the Spirit Sha was blasted into dust by the eleven Divine Thunder Banish Evil treasures, eliminating one Divinity Transformation Stage Sha Spirit.
The Spirit Sha Melting Water landed on the Thunderlight Infinite Shield, corroding the shield wall until it became weak. Then, the remaining six Divine Skills struck, finally shattering the defense of this Spiritual Treasure.
Without the protection of the Thunderlight Infinite Shield, the Nine Heavens Thunderbolt Array cast by the Shenxiao Sect disciples was powerless against the attacks of the six remaining Sha Spirits. The defensive capabilities of Pseudo Spirit Treasures were far inferior to those of Spiritual Treasures. They could barely withstand the danger and were incapable of forming a coordinated defense.
With a wave of his hand, the Seven Kills True Monarch silently shot out the Dark Black Finger Bone, targeting a Shenxiao Sect disciple.
"Dust World Thunder Python!"
From high above came the sound of thunder, as a thousand-zhang tall purple Thunder Python descended from the sky, crashing towards the Sha Spirits and the Seven Fiends Temple cultivators.
Seeing the Shenxiao Sect disciples in peril, the guardian Lianxu Stage cultivator could no longer sit idly by. He decisively unleashed his Divine Skill, descending from the sky.
"Your opponent is me!"
A massive black-and-white gate materialized out of nowhere, blocking the path of the gigantic Thunder Python. When they collided, there was no earth-shattering thunder. Instead, half of the Thunder Python’s body was swallowed by the Yin Yang Two Realms Gate, dissipating into nothingness.
"Yin Yang Two Realms Gate! Samsara Valley?!"
Guardian Dong Zun looked towards the massive Yin Yang gate, his expression turning exceedingly grim.
"Explode!"
The Thunder Python detonated. The surrounding thunder light burst forth, and countless bolts of Purple Thunder transformed into a purple thunderous domain, sweeping across everything.
The black-and-white gate opened, unleashing a powerful suction force that drew all the exploding Purple Thunder into it, where it vanished without a trace. The gate seemed to connect to an alternate dimension, absorbing all the lightning.
"Samsara Valley wishes to intervene in this matter? Are you seeking to make an enemy of the Shenxiao Sect?"
Guardian Dong Zun was both furious and frustrated, killing intent boiling in his eyes.
"The Seven Fiends Temple is a vassal power of my Samsara Valley. The Shenxiao Sect’s reach is far too long! Since that’s the case, I’ll just have to help you sever those claws!"
A Void Refinement Cultivator from Samsara Valley, dressed in a black robe, appeared. His eyes held no black, only pure white, giving him an unsettling, lifeless gaze.
Ordinarily, Guardian Dong Zun would not have minded battling this man. But today was different. The Sect’s disciples were still in peril; a moment’s delay could result in their deaths.
"You’re courting death!"
"Blue Thunder Nine Turns, Chaotic Thunder Whip!"
A nine-colored thunder disk manifested above Guardian Dong Zun’s head, and nine serpentine streaks of lightning coursed over his body. In his right hand, he wielded a whip emanating white, blue, purple, and gold light, lashing it towards the Samsara Valley Demon Cultivator. The four-colored lightning twisted into a single strand. As it passed, there was no sound of wind or thunder, only black fissures tearing through space. This single strike, capable of shattering the void, was enough to demonstrate the formidable power of Guardian Dong Zun’s attack.
"Night Cycle Reversal!"
All traces of white in the Samsara Valley cultivator’s eyes vanished, turning a dull grey.
"Night Demon King Body!"
All light within a thousand miles was extinguished, leaving only enduring darkness. A pure black figure emerged, like the sovereign of the night itself, its colossal palm reaching down towards Guardian Dong Zun.
The four-colored lightning shattered the dark palm. However, before he could rush to the Seven Fiends Temple’s battlefield, copious amounts of black Qi transformed into chains, entangling Guardian Dong Zun. The Samsara Valley cultivator was determined to ensnare him, resolved not to let him escape.
Elsewhere on the battlefield, the Shenxiao Sect disciples, having lost the protection of the Thunderlight Infinite Shield, were powerless against the Seven Fiends Temple. One was shredded to pieces by the Xuan Kill Cha Sword; another was ambushed by the Seven Kills True Monarch and pulverized into a bloody pulp. The remaining disciples were struggling to hold on; their deaths at the hands of the Seven Fiends Temple cultivators were only a matter of time.
The Insect External Incarnation observed the entire battle. The two most powerful Void Refinement Cultivators were locked in intense combat. Apart from them, the strongest individual present was the Seven Kills True Monarch of the Seven Fiends Temple.
The danger isn’t too great. This is a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
