Chapter 942: Chapter 762: The Great Calamity of the Corpse-Driving Sect (Part 2)

“What did I just say?”

A Grandmaster from the Liangyi Sect said proudly, “The Fake Pill technique is too restrictive.

It was long discarded by our great sects as an outdated method, yet these small sects in the Northern Domain still regard it as a treasure. Truly ignorant and laughable.”

“However, to speak truthfully,

the Fake Pill cultivators from the Corpse-Driving Sect seem much stronger than some of the Fake Pill users I encountered before.” A Master from the Five Elements Sect laughed.

“Small sects unable to cultivate more Golden Cores naturally delve deeply into the Fake Pill method. What’s strange about that?”

A Master from the Li Fire Palace sneered with an air of superiority in his voice.

Below, the Corpse-Driving Sect and Cyan Wolf Ridge were fighting desperately, soaked in blood.

Above, these observing Masters, full of interest, were giving commentary, and some even took out their Spirit Wine to indulge.

Hoping that the Corpse-Driving Sect would be exterminated soon so they could share the spoils.

The situation for the Corpse-Driving Sect was indeed extremely critical.

Elder Qingmu’s aura had only sustained for less than twenty breaths before it started to decline rapidly.

About to fall out of the Third Realm!

At this moment,

within the Corpse-Driving Sect, the area enveloped by the massive hemispherical white barrier suddenly lit up with hundreds to thousands of lights.

Clearly visible in the gradually darkening sky.

The colors varied: gold, blue, red, and yellow.

Yet most of the lights were gray.

The brightness also varied.

The bright ones were akin to construction crane lights, while the dim ones were like flashlights.

Many lights connected, forming a sprawling array map that covered the entire sect.

Upon closer look, it was discovered that these lights were all provided by different cultivators.

At each light, five Corpse-Driving Sect cultivators sat in the Five Elements configuration.

Their palms faced each other, eyes tightly closed, with their Spiritual Essence and Spiritual Power rapidly circulating, faint white mist rising from their heads.

Beneath them was a precisely carved array map on the stone ground.

Complex curves with lights constantly shifting, a luminous diamond-shaped Spirit Stone at the center.

The five individuals formed a unique entity, their Spiritual Power and Spiritual Essence consolidated into one by the array.

Like many streams flowing into the grand array map covering the sect, creating a vast sea of vibrant, boundless Spiritual Qi!

The hemispherical barrier originally protecting the Corpse-Driving Sect was thus removed.

And the sea of Spiritual Qi transformed into a dragon form, soaring skyward, becoming a new force injected into Elder Qingmu.

His aura instantly stopped declining.

Rose again to its peak, finally stabilizing at the Third Realm level.

“Innate Wood Sword!”

With the new energy infusion, Elder Qingmu’s once pale face regained color, and he wielded his magic more smoothly.

The Wood Essence Qi within hundreds of miles of vegetation was continuously extracted by him.

Forming one green giant sword after another, fiercely slashing toward the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf and Iron-Backed Gray Wolf!

“Roar!”

The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf Great Demon let out a miserable cry.

Its body weaker than its kind, both paws cut with bloody wounds, several toes severed, hot blood pouring like a waterfall.

Though the Iron-Backed Gray Wolf Great Demon was stronger, being cut by the giant swords ‘clang-clang’ on its fur was still unpleasant, it after all not a masochist.

“Damn old man, I’ll tear you apart!”

The two Wolf Demons, being pressed hard, were truly angered.

Intent on forcibly breaking through to Elder Qingmu and slaughtering him.

However, with the support of all Corpse-Driving Sect disciples, Elder Qingmu had ample Spiritual Essence, and was full of power.

Green giant swords endless swung down upon them, forcing them continually to retreat, leaving them almost no room to fight back.

“Just stall, I don’t believe he can last long!” the Iron-Backed Gray Wolf Great Demon roared in anger.

“Damn it…” The Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was cut with a huge wound across his chest, cursing incessantly.

“This is… the Five Elements Array of Essence and Spirit!

Initially, it can gather the Spiritual Power and Blood Qi of those at the Array Base. Later, with their consent, it can even absorb Essence Qi and Essence, extremely high capacity…”

High in the sky, a Golden Core from the Li Fire Palace said in shock, “The difficulty of carving such an array is high, it must have been handled by an Array Grandmaster,

and requires many rare materials. How could a remote small sect build it?”

“If it can’t be built in a year, then spend ten, a hundred, a thousand years, gathering power from generations, it could very well succeed.” Beside him, the Master of the Five Elements Sect said with a grim face, sneering, “It seems the forebears of the Corpse-Driving Sect were very foresighted, preparing long ago.”

“As long as those maintaining the Array Base are willing to offer and sacrifice, the array can be sustained for quite some time.” True Master Qiangu said eerily, “I admire that this entire sect, these disciples, are not afraid of death.”

The implication was that he harbored fear towards the Corpse-Driving Sect and was even more murderous.

Soon, the detailed information of the ‘Five Elements Array of Essence and Spirit’ was passed to the demons of Cyan Wolf Ridge.

Upon learning of the terrifying power and not insignificant endurance of this array, the Demons were both shocked and furious.

“We must destroy this array quickly, or we won’t fare well!” The Red-haired Old Demon roared angrily.

In battle with Daoist Cang Yu, it had gained a clear upper hand.

But the opponent’s reckless fighting style made it fearful, unable to unleash its full might.

Before killing Daoist Cang Yu, it feared some clan members might fall.

Like the two Great Demons being pressed by Daoist Qingmu, now battered and their aura declining.

Cyan Wolf Ridge in so many years had only given birth to five Great Demons, each a cornerstone, losing any one would be a grave depletion of Primordial Qi.

“The Corpse-Driving Sect’s array must be destroyed!” the Nether Shadow Wolf said sinisterly.

Being entangled with the Black Wood Staff by Elder Black Skin, it was initially awkward, now becoming less passive.

Confident that given time, it could completely seize the initiative.

Of course, this period was crucial, possibly the deciding factor between the Corpse-Driving Sect and Cyan Wolf Ridge.

“Children, annihilate these humans!”

Upon receiving commands from the Great Demons, the demon clan of Cyan Wolf Ridge began marching, surging wildly towards the region of the Corpse-Driving Sect!

Among these demons were noble bloodlines holding dominant positions, like Iron-Backed Gray Wolf, Howling Moon Celestial Wolf, and Nether Shadow Wolf.

Of course, the majority were not wolf race, but exotic demon clans under their rule.

There were Hill Giants, huge in size, with strong defense; there were Fox Demons, adept at charm and cunning Demon Arts.

There were Three-headed Lion Demons with equally ancient bloodlines, possessing astonishing attack speed with almost no weaknesses…

Among these monsters, though none were of the Third Realm, there were many at the peak of the Second Realm, including some with Bloodline Perfection and even multiple Bloodline Transformations.

“Stand back!”

“Demons, don’t think you can move another step forward!”

“Kill them, slay these damned beasts!”

At the crucial moment, hundreds of figures rushed to the battlefield in front of the Corpse-Driving Sect, preparing to block the demon army’s advance.

Most of these human beings were at the Foundation Establishment Level, with a few at the Peak of Qi Cultivation.

However, they shared a common trait of having white hair, wrinkled faces, and a failing blood aura, clearly not long for this world.

“That’s Elder Zhao from the Treasure Pavilion, my grandfather once served under him!”

“Wasn’t Steward Xie supposed to retire and return to the countryside? How come he’s back?”

“Elder Deng, always tormented by poison, emaciated and living in agony, has also taken to the field today!”

In the Corpse-Driving Sect, those ‘lights’, each composed of small arrays by five cultivators.

They not only provided Spiritual Essence and Essence Qi to Elder Qingmu above but also kept part of their minds observing the outside world.

Seeing a group of old men and women with white hair, hunched backs, recklessly rushing to block the demons,

everyone was moved, their spirits stirred.
