Chapter 2648: Chapter 977:
The youngest in age and appearance, Liancheng, was now extremely somber, even experiencing a faint illusion of panic, making his steps heavy.
Pa!
An old hand landed on his shoulder.
Liancheng turned to look, it was none other than Senior Brother Mo.
However, the usually dignified Sect Master Senior Brother’s eyes now held a hint of encouragement.
“Don’t worry, we’ve prepared sufficiently for this battle, we can win.”
Liancheng’s voice was hoarse as he said, “But at the time of the Great War in Zhongzhou, the Mystic Realm sent down nine Divine Transformation Senior Brothers, all of whom died at the hands of that Demon Phoenix. Can we really do it with just us five?”
Mo Shouzhuo shook his head, “That’s different, crossing the Star Gate and forcibly descending to the Lower Realm already depleted most of their power. Being strategically ambushed by Qi Xia Emperor was expected. This time, we are prepared, the advantage is on our side.”
Liancheng wanted to say more.
The person ahead, Tan Fengyue, spoke with a gloomy tone: “This was a death order from the main sect of the Mystic Realm, an instruction given across realms by Elder Bai Hu before the Star Gate was taken. Now, we hardly have any room for resistance, so why overthink it? Better to be carefree!”
Liancheng opened his mouth, feeling quite unwilling, “I’ve cultivated for hundreds of years, barely achieving Divine Transformation, as soon as I came out of the mountain, I first lost to Youli, and now I am facing a life-and-death struggle with the Demon Phoenix. How can you ask me to be carefree?”
“Hehe.” Tan Fengyue laughed, appearing carefree, yet the bitterness was evident to all.
At the front, Zhan Buqi stopped, turned around to face the two, his face stern.
“Fear before battle, have these years of peace made you too comfortable? Where is the demeanor of a great Divine Transformation? Where is the Qi Cultivation Technique of hundreds of years of cultivation?”
Liancheng lowered his head in shame, while Tan Fengyue merely pouted.
Though they usually called each other Senior Brothers, at the end of the day, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect in the Mountain Sea Realm focused on clan power, and their relationships were not that deep.
Zhan Buqi’s reliance on old age here wouldn’t necessarily earn everyone’s respect.
Ultimately, it was Mo Shouzhuo, the head of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, who stood up.
With a light cough, attracting everyone’s attention, he said solemnly:
“In this battle, we must succeed, no failure allowed. Even if we cannot defeat the Demon Phoenix, we must heavily injure her, forcing her to stay in this realm. The subsequent cleanup will be handled by the main sect of the Mystic Realm, and Elder Bai Hu is ready to send a slaughtering avatar, forcibly descending into this realm.”
“Anyone harboring luck, even if escaping alive momentarily, cannot evade punishment from the main sect.”
“Therefore, at the time of the Great War, we must not hold back, exert all efforts to kill the Demon Phoenix!”
Everyone tightened their lips, nodding heavily in agreement.
Soon after, the four met up with Chun Yuan.
And after gathering, the Five Elders of Tianyuan didn’t rest for a moment, tirelessly commencing various arrangements.
As for the bait Qing Shuang to draw Qi Xia Emperor, her five senses were blocked, and prohibitions covered her body.
Everything was ready, only waiting for the Demon Phoenix to arrive!
…
Will she come?
This question surfaced in the depths of Luo Chen’s Divine Soul.
Knowing of the ambush, will that woman come?
If it were him, Luo Chen certainly wouldn’t fall for it.
But upon thinking of that woman’s pride, that Phoenix figure that forced its way into the Dark Abyss Sect, Luo Chen instinctively concluded.
She will come!
Moreover, since the Five Elders of Tianyuan dared to use Qing Shuang as bait, it proves this woman is extremely important to Qi Xia Emperor, and they are not afraid she won’t fall for it.
This is an open scheme.
Therefore, she will definitely come!
And his chance to leave lies at the initial clash of the battle!
Not before the Great War, not after, and not during the battle.
Appearing before the battle, no one knows if anyone will target him.
After the war, whether he survives is questionable.
The same goes for during intense combat.
Only at the beginning of the battle, recklessly rushing into the Netherworld Sea, can he avoid others having time to deal with him.
And doing so also prevents him from being affected by the aftermath of the battle.
“Hope everything goes smoothly!”
Stones were arranged in special positions, with no Spirit Stones to energize them, merely the simplest Qimen Bagua formations.
Luo Chen’s physical body was hidden within them.
He had not set up any mystical Concealing Arrays.
In front of Great Power Divine Transformation, casual arrays would be instantly sensed, whereas an Illusion Array with no Spirit Qi could somewhat conceal him.
His entire breath was restrained to the extreme, even his Divine Soul gradually went into slumber.
Only a Warning Array was established on his body with Ten Thousand Array Gu.
Once the outside battle begins, and powerful Spirit Qi Fluctuation is detected on the Spiritless Soul Island, this Warning Array would awaken him.
Then, he would rush into the Netherworld Sea without hesitation!
And this opportunity arrived three days later.
…
“Here it comes!”
The strongest among the Five Elders of Tianyuan, Zhan Buqi, was the first to detect the anomaly of the Netherworld Sea.
Amidst that dusky sea wave, a Golden Light crossed the sea.
It was Qi Xia Emperor!
Zhan Buqi’s face showed strong battle intent, saying: “Later, let me confront her first, see how her state is. Then you will activate the Spiritual Treasure and trap her inside, to be refined together!”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Though Qi Xia Emperor is strong, she is limited by the suppression of this world, and her abilities can only be exerted within the God Transformation Realm.
Perhaps she once had the achievement of the Peak of Void Refining, but under such suppression, they are not incapable of battle.
