Chapter 359: 237: Jade Order_2
“The Celestial White Jade Capital, Twelve Towers, and Five Cities, hmph, nothing but a show of force. The Palace Master of those Five Palaces must be Kong Xuan in disguise. Within the White Jade Capital, the only real flagbearer might only be him.”
“…”
A group of Golden Core elders discussed fervently, each offering suggestions, and finally, all eyes turned toward Sect Master Wei Wuya.
Facing everyone’s gaze, Wei Wuya’s expression was icy as he said coldly, “If he shows no mercy, then do not blame us for being unrighteous. Let us proceed as discussed, unite cultivators from all sides, infiltrate the Three Kingdoms Territory, and have a showdown with his White Jade Capital!”
“What the Sect Master said is very true!”
“Kong Xuan can slaughter Blood Demons, his strength is fierce, we can’t fight him head-on.”
“But we can spread the word, drum up the momentum, and have the Loose Cultivators take the lead.”
“Our sect has a deep potentiality, enough to support us for a while.”
“On the surface, we can pretend to comply, following the commands of the White Jade Capital, while secretly connecting with others behind the scenes, drumming up momentum, letting them clash with the Loose Cultivators first.”
“Loose Cultivators have weak backgrounds and can hardly sustain themselves. Once pushed to the extremes, they will surely fight to the death.”
“In this way, it might not even be necessary for our sect to make a move. The Loose Cultivators alone might cause the White Jade Capital a lot of trouble.”
The cultivators present were old and cunning, their insights sharp. Without needing to say much, they quickly clarified the situation and unified their strategies in an instant.
Wei Wuya nodded continuously, full of praise for this approach.
The White Jade Capital must be opposed, as it concerns the pathway to life, with no room for turning back.
But as a sect leader, to confront head-on a White Jade Capital that possesses the Corpse Resolution battle strength and can slay Blood Demons would be clearly unwise.
Therefore, it was necessary to use others’ strength against them, to stir up momentum so that the Loose Cultivators would clash, while they would superficially cooperate and secretly coordinate, quietly throwing a wrench in the works, to let them know what it means when the mighty dragon doesn’t suppress the local snake.
You have your Divine Skills, I have my methods.
One person to overwhelm the world?
Simply a foolish delusion…
“Boom rumble!”
Before his thoughts settled, there was a loud noise, and the island shook dramatically.
“What’s happening?”
“The Mispirit Array!”
“Someone is attacking the island!”
Wei Wuya’s pupils contracted sharply, and he rose in alarm and anger, transforming into a streak of Escape Light rushing out of the conference hall, with several Golden Core elders closely following behind.
Outside the conference hall, in the center of Mispirit Island.
The Mountain Gate Array had already been activated, with rays of Spirit Light flashing and forming an Illusion Array.
However…
“Roar!”
A roar, like a dragon chant, shook all directions.
In the midst of the sea, a majestic shadow appeared, striding over the waves and dominating the ocean.
It was a giant turtle, with a dragon-like head and a mountainous form, its back coiled by a serpent.
Black Tortoise of the North Palace!
“Boom rumble!”
The Black Tortoise marched over the waves; Kui Water surged and stormed the sea. With one strike, the shock was extreme, directly targeting the root of the Mispirit formation, the base of the array. Instantly, the ground shook and the mountains trembled, and the entire island, the entire array, shuddered violently.
“How dare you!”
“What evil creature is this!”
“Daring to intrude on Mispirit Island!”
This scene filled Wei Wuya and the others with both shock and rage, prompting them to intervene to stabilize the array and counteract the giant turtle.
However…
“Roar!!!”
With a bellow, the giant turtle with a dragon’s head raised its forelimbs, and with a thunderous crash, sent forth a strike that caused the sea to overturn.
The true might of the Black Tortoise shook heaven and earth.
With just one hit, the array broke apart, the Kui Water of the sea poured back in reverse, and the Black Tortoise advanced on the waves.
Black Tortoise of the North Palace, the spirit of Kui Water, acting as a Demon Transformation Spiritual Beast and also cultivating the Five Spirits True Jue, took full advantage of the geographical power in this Canglan Sea. Not to mention surpassing Nascent Soul realm cultivation, it was unmatched in the Golden Core level.
The Mispirit Array was merely third-tier and needed the sea as its source; thus, with the arrival of the Black Tortoise, it was like pulling the carpet from under someone’s feet, how could it withstand?
Before Wei Wuya and the others could reinforce the array, the dragon-headed giant turtle, with the power of the Black Tortoise, forcibly breached the Mispirit Array.
The Black Tortoise advanced on the waves, the sea water poured in reversed torrents, raging into the center of Mispirit Island.
More rays of light broke through the clouds and the sky, accompanying the Black Tortoise.
“Celestial White Jade Capital, Twelve Towers, Five Cities.”
“Immortals bless my head, as I vow to live forever with tied hair.”
“I am the master of the North Palace of the Five Cities – Black Tortoise!”
“Mispirit Island defies the Jade Decree, practices evil Demon Elixir Skills, and allies with various demons. Its crimes must be punished!”
“Kill!!!”
The cry for slaughter resounded, shaking heaven and earth.
Although the Black Tortoise was a massive being, its speed was not the slightest bit slow as it rushed straight into the island, bearing down on Wei Wuya and the other Golden Cores.
Rays of Spirit Light also transformed into figures, charging in all directions of the island, the very disciples from the various towers.
“The White Jade Capital!?”
“North Palace Black Tortoise!”
Wei Wuya’s pupils shrank, his expression a mix of shock and fury as he repeatedly called out, “Palace Master, you misunderstand, we have no….”
“Rumble!”
Black Tortoise paid no heed, simply opening its mouth to spew forth torrents of Kui water, pitch-black and heavy as Mount Tai.
Wei Wuya’s eyes narrowed in focus, knowing words were useless, and mustered his mana, casting forth a magical treasure.
Canglan Seal!
A lower-tier magical treasure, associated with the element of water, it was the symbol of the Mispirit Island Master, a treasure passed down through their sect’s heritage.
A water element treasure against the Black Tortoise True Spirit?
Unwise indeed, but he had no choice.
The opponent was prepared, with arrangements targeting him. What could he do?
He could only curse to himself that Celestial White Jade Capital had no honor; issuing the White Jade Order with one hand, while breaching the sect’s defenses with the other.
Grinding his teeth, he forcefully channeled power into the treasure, causing it to shoot forth.
However….
“Rumble!”
Within the darkness, Kui Water surged, and suddenly thunder boomed forth.
“Kui Water Divine Thunder!”
“Boom!!!”
Wei Wuya’s pupils shrank, his terror was absolute.
In that terrifying gaze, black Kui water erupted, divine thunder roared, and the Canglan Seal was devastated by the Thunder Series attack, its Spirit Light dimming, and its power completely lost.
No matter how strong a magical treasure, the power of an object still couldn’t match a True Spirit’s Divine Skills, the majesty of Thunder Series.
Black Tortoise True Spirit, ruler of the water element, how could an ordinary magical treasure shake it?
“Pfft!”
As divine thunder struck and the magical treasure was damaged, Wei Wuya, whose life was tied to it, didn’t even have time to scream before spitting out a mouthful of blood, simultaneously suffering heavy injuries.
“Sect Master!”
“This….”
“Run!”
Seeing this, several Golden Core elders were thrown into chaos: some came to help, others fled, and some were at a loss, unable to make a decision.
Black Tortoise was relentless, causing a tumultuous overturn of waves as it came forth, spewing another mouthful of Kui water with hidden black divine thunder.
“This is too outrageous!”
“Ahhh!!”
As Black Tortoise closed in for the kill and with heavy injuries and no way to retreat, Wei Wuya’s eyes reddened and he let out a piercing scream of utmost misery. His clothes burst into pieces, revealing a bare and muscular body with visibly enlarged pores, forming dense cavities through which a demonic flow was seen, condensing into jet-black blood-covered pupils.
This was the Mature Demon Infant!
Golden Core perfection, the Demon Infant mature, one more step either towards Slaughtering Demon, Corpse Resolution, or complete fall into the demon’s path.
Now, clearly, it was the latter.
At the brink of life and death, he let go of control, ready to transform into a demon, and face mutual destruction with the enemy.
However….
“Boom!”
The giant tortoise opened its mouth, and Kui water burst forth like the breath of a True Dragon, exploding into roaring thunder.
Kui Water Divine Thunder, still Kui Water Divine Thunder.
In terms of talent and comprehension, though not comparable to the Five Elements Spiritual Body, it was a Demon Transformation Spiritual Beast, with an innate sense of divination. Additionally, having received Xu Yang’s enlightenment and teachings, merged with its own Innate Divine Ability, the Kui Water Divine Thunder it cultivated possessed at least half the power of its teacher’s.
Although only possessing half the essence, Thunder Series is supreme, powerful enough to suppress the rebellious.
“Boom!!”
A loud explosion, divine thunder shattered, the power of Kui Water obliterated, and the Mature Demon Infant was blasted apart, transforming into a shower of blood and flesh.
“Sect Master!”
“Quick, escape!”
Seeing this, the remaining Golden Core cultivators scattered like birds and beasts, their will to fight completely gone.
Celestial White Jade Capital, utterly despicable, fully prepared, picking an element that restrained them.
These Mispirit Island cultivators were primarily of the water type Spiritual Root, cultivating water element techniques. Faced with the Dragon-headed giant tortoise, the Black Tortoise spirit, they were innately at a disadvantage, like subjects before a ruler. How could they contend?
So… run, run, run!
Talk of mutual destruction or fighting to the death, let it all go to hell!
If there’s a choice, who would choose death?
As Golden Core cultivators scattered, there were explosions in various parts of the island, Mispirit Island disciples, Twelve Towers disciples, all plunged into chaotic combat, soon collapsing. Foundation Establishment Cultivators who couldn’t contend fled, while only a few who couldn’t escape chose to desperately fight to the death after transforming into demons.
“Roar!”
Seeing this, the giant tortoise didn’t pursue. It raised its head and roared, Kui Water Spirit Light soared into the sky, forming a True Spirit phantom that established an encompassing array.
Black Tortoise True Spirit Diagram!
Kui Water Demon Sealing Array!
The Five Elements were split apart, forming a single array. Although it lacked the former might of the Great Xing Mountain’s heaven-sealing, earth-locking, demon-refining power, the enemy at hand was not the Blood Sea True Demon’s descendant, Boxun.
The battle for sect annihilation, with no suspense left, it was over!
