Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 283 - 265 A Muddy Pond!

"Zhu Rong Demon God!"

Lu Qingfeng's mind stirred as he retreated. The Zhu Rong Demon God also fell back, merging into Lu Qingfeng's body. His aura surged explosively, his figure faintly cloaked by a yellow Magic Robe shimmering around him.

His aura was overwhelmingly strong.

In an instant, it soared to the Void Core Realm.

"Zhu Rong Demon God!"

At this moment,

As Lu Qingfeng's thoughts moved, the Zhu Rong Demon God emerged at the Void Core Realm as well.

Within the Dutian Xuanming Strategy, thirty-six Dutian Ghost Generals and three hundred sixty-five Xuanming Yin Soldiers sat cross-legged, continuously converging their power towards the Daoist, striving to refine the Magic Artifact Space filled with Dutian aura and constantly replenish it.

The Dutian aura was rapidly depleting.

Spirit Stones were burning.

"Roar!"

The Zhu Rong Demon God roared, throwing his arms towards the sky, twelve Dutian Fierce Fire Divine Banners bolted from his body, wrapped in endless flames, circling around him and enveloping Jiupan Po.

"Ssss!"

The Fiery Fire Divine Banners arranged in the void, forming the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array.

"Trifling tricks!"

Jiupan Po showed disdain, as her feather fan waved continuously, generating a giant net in the void, attempting to envelop Lu Qingfeng, but it collided midair with the array, making a sizzling sound.

Fiery Fire Refining Heaven Net!

Neither yielding.

Lu Qingfeng stood at the rear, his powerful aura billowing in his yellow robe, yet he never made a move.

"Demon Clan Magic Artifact!"

He eyed the feather fan in Jiupan Po's hand and his eyes narrowed—

[Magic Artifact: Green-eyed Sky Fan]

[Grade: Fifth-Order]

[Description: Crafted by Jiupan Po of the Three Great Kings of Heavenly Travel Mountain using countless fierce spirits and fresh corpses' eyes along with millennium-old phosphorus combined with her own feathers, it enslaves the flesh and Divine Soul. Once caught in its net, escape is futile. Inside, it contains numerous All Heavens Five Lustful Threads, which latch onto one's body like a shadow, increasing its ferocity.]

"Green-eyed Sky Fan!"

"Such power, almost Sixth Rank. Crafted from her own feathers, interlinked with her mind and soul, it's her Lifebound Magical Artifact, entirely controlled at will."

Lu Qingfeng held onto the Dutian Xuanming Strategy, vigilant in all directions.

With Zhu Rong Demon God fighting ahead, the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array fiercely countered the Green-eyed Sky Fan.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the Array Flags blasted a hundred miles away, causing the All Heavens Five Lustful Threads from the Sky Fan to also expand a hundred miles, enveloping everything.

Boom!

Boom, boom!

Boom, boom, boom!

Fierce fire and gales descended; the water area exploded; islands ten, twenty miles in size shattered all at once, turning into dust along with countless Fire Spirit Shells destroyed.

The cultivators of the White Bone Demon Sect were in the midst, bearing the brunt and continually suffering casualties.

As the Green-eyed Sky Fan fanned, the Heavenly Net spread wide. Although it didn't destroy mountains or lands, no creatures or cultivators were spared.

"Retreat!"

Neither the Fiery Fire Immortal Array nor the Green-eyed Sky Fan could be withstood, even by Core Formation True People. No-Life Hall Master withdrew rapidly, avoiding a hundred miles.

Han Ji and the Five Fire True Man fought and retreated in sync, brilliantly maneuvering a hundred miles away.

But the many followers of the White Bone Demon Sect didn't have such speed.

Each of them realized, desperately trying to escape, to avoid the implications.

Yet the expansion of the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array was too swift, unintentionally or not, blanketing a hundred miles, including all beings and White Bone Demon Sect cultivators within.

However, Xuanyuan Sect cultivators, being close to the inside of the Shell Field and further from where Zhu Rong Demon God and Jiupan Po were battling, managed to move in time and escape disaster.

Thus,

At the northwest corner of the Fire Spirit Shell Field,

Twelve divine banners fluttered in the wind.

Painted with many Wind and Cloud Talismans, each corner blazed with flames, erupting with a thunderous crackling as fierce fire burst forth with just one flick.

This fire, not even a torrential downpour could extinguish, evaporating all the rainwater within ten miles.

For a time, fire blazed tremendously, with wind and thunder surging, turning rain into mist.

White Bone Demon Sect cultivators couldn't discern directions, flailing like headless flies in chaos.

Jiupan Po, amidst it, casually waved her Green-eyed Sky Fan, thus keeping the fierce fire and thunder at bay, scattering them wildly.

But it spelled disaster for White Bone Demon Sect cultivators.

"Run!"

"Run, run, run!"

Cultivators dashed frantically, seeking refuge.

But with wind and thunder blinding their sight and the fierce fire scorching them, as the sparks fell and wind surged, one by one, the No-Life Hall cultivators were instantly turned to dust.

Not just the Fiery Fire Immortal Array.

The gale unleashed by the Green-eyed Sky Fan and the Heavenly Net mixed with All Heavens Five Lustful Threads implicated every cultivator. Once touched, the body shattered instantly, the Divine Soul leaving the body entangled by the Five Lustful Threads and caught in the Heavenly Net, to be dragged into the Green-eyed Sky Fan.

Lu Qingfeng was not to be outdone.

With a sweep of his Dutian Xuanming Strategy, he seized all Divine Souls within the array into the Magic Artifact Space. The No-Life Hall had numerous elite members; those participating in the attack on the Fire Spirit Shell Field were at least at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and there were not few Spirit Void Practitioners.

Lu Qingfeng capturing Divine Souls, felt tremendously exhilarated within.

With just this battle, he could complete the assembly of the Xuanming Yin Soldiers, even leaving reserves for future promotions.

When True People clashed, the intensity was unmatched. Once unleashed, a hundred miles, even a thousand, would suffer.

At such a time,

Just one clash between Zhu Rong Demon God and Jiupan Po ruthlessly wiped clean the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the No-Life Hall. Under the coverage of the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array, there was no safe spot. Its power was far beyond what Foundation Establishment cultivators could resist.

Of course,

Jiupan Po also contributed to the havoc.

Spirit Void Practitioners ran frantically in all directions, with the unlucky ones, dozens of Spirit Void Cultivators, turning to ashes in the blink of an eye.

A battle of deities!

Mortals suffer!

But that's just how it is.

When Han Ji witnessed the battle between himself and the Five Fire True Man rise, he immediately had eyes full of rage, shouting, "Cha Shan Hall Master!"

He roared, but his shout was directed at the No-Life Hall Master.

The purpose of this assault was supposed to be a thunderous sweep to capture the Fire Spirit Shell Field.

However.

First, they hadn't expected the Five Fire True Man to be there. Han Ji, itching for a fight and overcome with pride, engaged in a fierce battle. As a True Man of the Solid Pill Realm, how could he let others intervene when facing a Five Fire True Man of the Void Core level?

The No-Life Hall Master, standing by, didn't dare to trigger his Black Dog Nail, fearing to anger Han Ji.

So, he hovered nearby, watching the battle unfold.

But unexpectedly.

A Fiery Fire Wanderer and Jiupan Po suddenly entered the fray, throwing the twin demons' plan into disarray.

The No-Life Hall Master was even more blindsided, as his elite warriors from the No-Life Hall, not dying in battles with Xuanyuan Sect's cultivators, strangely perished in the crossfire caused by Jiupan Po and the Fiery Fire Wanderer's confrontation.

Truly frustrating!

Truly infuriating!

Hearing Han Ji's roar, the No-Life Hall Master's brows furrowed deeply, his face showing difficulty.

These two.

One was the third of the Three Great Kings of the Heavenly Travel Mountain, admittedly less formidable than the first two Demon Kings, yet his cultivation had already reached the Solid Pill Realm. With the Green-eyed Sky Fan in hand, he could even match the Four Guardians of the White Bone Demon Sect.

The other, the Fiery Fire Wanderer.

A man of mysterious origins, currently matching Jiupan Po blow for blow.

With such powerful figures clashing, the No-Life Hall Master, despite having some Dao ability, dared not intervene!

Nor did he dare to ignore Han Ji's commands. Turning his gaze, it landed on the Five Fire True Man, who was still in combat with Han Ji, killing intent overwhelming him as he raised his hand, the Black Dog Nail flickering with dark light.

"This is bad."

Lu Qingfeng had been monitoring the situation the whole time. Seeing where the No-Life Hall Master's gaze fell and the motions of his hands, he instantly realized his intentions.

With a rapidly turning mind, he shouted to Han Ji high above, "Many thanks to the Six Yang Guardian."

In the next moment, he urgently yelled to the No-Life Hall Master, "The witch is fierce; I truly cannot protect the Demon Sect cultivators alone. Please, Cha Shan Hall Master, swiftly aid me!"

"What?!"

"Mind your own business!"

The No-Life Hall Master internally cursed.

Han Ji had ordered him to rescue the No-Life Hall cultivators, but fearing to face the Fiery Fire Wanderer and Jiupan Po, he pretended to misinterpret and used the Black Dog Nail to sneak attack the Five Fire True Man. If he could just take down the Five Fire True Man or switch places with Han Ji.

He would fight the Five Fire True Man.

Letting the battle amongst Jiupan Po and the other two be handled by Han Ji.

But the Fiery Fire Wanderer shamelessly thanked Han Ji directly, as if Han Ji was ordering him to assist Cha Shan.

Ignoring him, the No-Life Hall Master continued powering the Black Dog Nail to launch at the Five Fire True Man.

"They're in cahoots!"

Jiupan Po, overhearing the words between Han Ji and the Fiery Fire Wanderer, felt a surge of frustration. She was secretly using a copper mirror to sabotage the Five Fire True Man from the side. Had it not been for the sudden interference of Lu Qingfeng, she would have helped Han Ji kill the Five Fire True Man sooner.

Although there were intentions to frame and instigate conflict, forcing the Xuanyuan Sect and the White Bone Demon Sect into a relentless struggle, that was not necessarily a bad thing for the White Bone Demon Sect.

It was unfortunate that Lu Qingfeng appeared and spoiled her plans.

Had Lu Qingfeng been from the Xuanyuan Sect, it would have been acceptable. But seeing the current situation, it was clear he was on the White Bone Demon Sect's side.pace.

Jiupan Po, feeling agitated, her Divine Soul seething—

"Die die die!"

Wielding the Green-eyed Sky Fan, she swung it wildly, expanding the hundred-mile battlefield even further. Inside, No-Life Hall cultivators had already perished.

Hundreds of Spirit Void!

Nearly a thousand Foundation Establishment!

Thousands of Divine Souls in the array, except for a few dozen snatched by Jiupan Po, all entered Lu Qingfeng's net!

"Haha!"

"Heaven aids me also!"

Lu Qingfeng laughed heartily, seeing the situation.

But not for the thousand Divine Souls.

With a flustered expression and alongside Zhu Rong Demon God holding the Dutian Fierce Fire Divine Banner, using the Fiery Fire Immortal Array, they lunged towards the No-Life Hall Master amidst Jiupan Po's furious frenzy.

Whoosh, whoosh!

The Green-eyed Sky Fan roared, and the Heavenly Net below cut off the No-Life Hall Master's escape. Fierce fire scattered around, and with one enveloping swoop of the Immortal Array, they trapped the No-Life Hall Master inside.

The No-Life Hall Master was captured in the Array!

"It's done!"

At that moment, Lu Qingfeng finally let out a sigh of relief—

The cultivators of the White Bone Demon Sect were all slaughtered.

The No-Life Hall Master had been trapped by his and Jiupan Po's battling.

His hands formed seals, a cold white light flickering around him. To outside observers, he was clad in a bone-white armor, resembling a Demon God covering his figure.

Fierce fire could not invade, and neither could the Heavenly Net reach.

Though he met disaster, he could not escape.

Han Ji and the Five Fire True Man were entangled. Despite the Five Fire True Man being far less capable than Han Ji, as a Core Formation True Man wielding the Five Fire Red Aura Banner, he could hold him off for a while without issue.

"The White Bone Demon Sect desired a quick decisive battle, taking advantage of the element of surprise."

"I led Jiupan Po into a great battle, merely muddying the waters and delaying the White Bone Demon Sect's opportunity for an attack. With this prolonging, support from the Xuanyuan Sect will arrive soon, and even Core Formation True Men are already en route. By stalling briefly, the crisis at the Fire Spirit Shell Field is thwarted!"

Lu Qingfeng, cloaked in a black robe, remained composed.

Though he had alienated Heavenly Travel Mountain this time, the White Bone Demon Sect could not determine whether the 'Fiery Fire Wanderer' was friend or foe. The sect wasn't foolish; without clarity on enemy or ally, they would certainly not rashly attack a formidable individual who could match Jiupan Po and Han Ji.

Moreover, the Illusion Wave Sea lay between the White Bone Demon Sect and the Xuanyuan Sect. Heavenly Travel Mountain's reach was too short, thus unobstructed.

"However, the White Bone Demon Sect is not easy to deal with. Even if they couldn't discern at the moment, a few tests later would reveal the stance. Ambiguity does not last long, and amidst the chaos, it will eventually be necessary to reveal one's position."

"As for myself—"

With a thought, Lu Qingfeng evaluated numerous possibilities, firmly deciding his course of action.

The Fire Spirit Shell Field.

Both sides displayed mystical battle skills in the Shell Field; the Five Fire True Man employed the Five Fire Red Aura Banner while Zhu Rong Demon God controlled the Dutian Fierce Fire Divine Banner, performing the Dutian Fierce Fire Immortal Array.

The entire field was bathed in blazing light reaching for the heavens.
