Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!-Chapter 912 - 498: Great Battle
"Haha, Guan Chao Pavilion, Ten Thousand Sword Alliance, dear old friends, long time no see."
Accompanied by two bursts of mad laughter, five figures stood in mid-air.
Taking the lead was a cultivator in a purple Taoist robe, his face rugged and chiseled, and his eyes blazing like two balls of fire.
"Zhang Chenfeng!"
Upon seeing this person, Zhao Bilong, Situ Hao, and other righteous cultivators turned pale.
This man before them was no ordinary person; he was the Great Elder of Fire Cloud Palace. His flames were incomparably pure, having once absorbed the Dragon Flame, known as the Fire Dragon Taoist. His cultivation was at the fifth level of the Daoist Platform Realm, the second in command at Fire Cloud Palace.
Fire Cloud Palace's ability to face the threats from Guan Chao Pavilion and the Ten Thousand Sword Alliance was largely due to his existence.
The other three standing with Zhang Chenfeng were also strong cultivators from Fire Cloud Palace, including Di Pingqiu, a Daoist Platform Fourth Level expert.
"You, Fire Cloud Palace, dare to collude with evil demons, aren't you afraid of being held accountable by the world?"
Zhao Bilong quickly figured out that this was a premeditated trap, shamelessly set by this so-called righteous sect from Qing Province, collaborating with Su Jie.
"Zhang Chenfeng, your Fire Cloud Palace claims to be the leader of righteousness in Qing Province yet cooperates with demons. Where is your conscience?"
Situ Hao was equally shocked and angry. The appearance of those from Fire Cloud Palace suddenly put them at a significant disadvantage.
"What are you two talking about? I don't know any Su Jie. I'm here solely to settle the grudges between us, and other matters have nothing to do with Fire Cloud Palace."
Zhang Chenfeng's mouth curled into a cold smile, his flaming eyes scanning the crowd. His words angered Zhao Bilong and righteous cultivators, utterly shameless.
"Guan Chao Pavilion, we also need to settle our past grudges. You've bullied my sect's Saint Heir, and as the Sect Master, I need to confront you today."
Beside Su Jie, high above in the sky, a swirling insect cloud descended as Zhang Junwei, the Sect Master of Ghost Ridge Palace, appeared on the scene.
"Haha, our Heavenly Soul Sect has also come to assist. Today, we Qingzhou Demon Path will have a good face-off with Qingzhou's righteous sects."
Another figure appeared, dressed in a black robe, filled with sinister Yin energy—it was Lu Jingshi, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Soul Sect, appearing near the auction.
Zhang Junwei coming over was to be expected, as Su Jie's affairs were now synonymous with Ghost Ridge Palace's.
As for the Heavenly Soul Sect, Lu Jingshi was convinced by Su Jie's notion that 'the best defense is a good offense.' To resolve the issue of the Heavenly Soul Sect being besieged by the righteous sects, the strategy was simply to beat the enemy half to death, making it hard for them to attack us.
Thus, Lu Jingshi brought supplies with him to assist in the battle.
Now, Su Jie's side had gathered its helpers, also totaling eight Daoist Platform Realm cultivators.
The combined forces of both sides amounted to sixteen Daoist Platform Realm powerhouses, concentrating nearly all of Qingzhou's and Chongzhou's high-end combat power here.
Inside the extreme treasure auction house in Taifeng City, the demon cultivators from Chongzhou were dumbfounded.
This scene made their hearts stop momentarily—sixteen Daoist Platform Realm powerhouses gathered, poised for battle, clearly marking them as cannon fodder!
Instantly, the demon cultivators started moving swiftly, making a quick escape to avoid becoming collateral damage.
Yan Yarou and Bo Renmu, both Daoist Platform Realm demon cultivators, exchanged glances and hurriedly fled, not even bothering to collect the auction items they had paid for. With eight righteous Daoist Platform Realm cultivators present, they did not want to stand out.
At this moment, the smiles of Mo Shiyao and her companions disappeared. Su Jie had gathered such powerful reinforcements, beyond their imagination, realizing this battle could determine the future trends of Qingzhou and Chongzhou.
The incident sparked by their auction would become the catalyst for the turbulent changes between the two great provinces, Qingzhou and Chongzhou.
Situ Hao and the others' expressions changed repeatedly, their faces turning livid as they looked at Su Jie's group, feeling an ominous premonition in their hearts.
Although the numbers appeared equivalent, Su Jie's sleeve harbored the Flying Centipede, and the Ghost Bride at his side was combat power terror, equivalent to a Daoist Platform realm.
Meanwhile, Lu Jingshi had also brought out his strongest fierce ghost, the Earth Evil Ghost, an eighth-grade fierce ghost.
Upon appearing, this eighth-grade fierce ghost first faced Han Ruyan, bowing slightly, seemingly in worship.
In Zhang Junwei's hand, he also held a Jade Box.
The Jade Box was crafted from Star Dust Mysterious Jade, a top-tier spiritual material for crafting spiritual treasures.
"Patriarch, the Patriarch is awake."
Zhang Junwei called several times, and the Jade Box slowly opened from the inside.
Inside the Ice Silkworm Silk-lined nest, a Gu Worm about the size of an infant's fist, entirely translucent white like the purest amber, appeared before the people.
Its body structure showed rings upon rings, numbering in thousands, resembling the annual rings of a tree.
This was the ancestor of Ghost Ridge Palace, the renowned ninth-grade Gu Worm, the Annual Ring Worm.
Seeing the Annual Ring Worm, the righteous cultivators present grew even more uneasy. Seeing this creature even made Situ Hao and Zhao Bilong's hearts tremble, causing their legs to shake.
If not for the Annual Ring Worm's need for long hibernation, always falling asleep after one move, its threat level would not be less than that of a Seventh Realm Daoist Platform strength, perhaps even greater in combat power.
