Chapter 1354 - 1351: The Pact of Dragon-pattern Mountain, Blazing Fire Bomb!

Corpse Ghost Taoist!

Upon hearing Elder Yun’s words, everyone’s faces changed dramatically.

As the infamous Corpse Ghost Taoist of the Blood Demon Sect, they naturally wouldn’t be unaware.

Luo Feng’s brows knitted tightly; the memory of being hunted by the Corpse Ghost Taoist in the Red Flame Desert with Yue Haitang was still vivid.

If it weren’t for Hall Master Shui Qingcheng’s timely appearance, and subsequently meeting Jiang Fengfeng and Su Zhuyun, they surely couldn’t have safely left the Red Flame Desert.

If it were only the Corpse Ghost Taoist, it wouldn’t be much, but he’s been using Blood Corpse Bugs to monitor for so long without revealing himself, clearly plotting something. Once he reveals himself, things are likely to be significant.

"We should leave here first."

Yue Haitang also realized the gravity of the situation and spoke.

Luo Feng nodded, about to move when he abruptly raised his head, his face darkening, "I’m afraid it’s too late."

As soon as he spoke, two piercing bird cries came from the southeast direction.

Everyone’s expressions tightened, simultaneously raising their heads to look toward the direction of the sound.

Two scarlet streaks pierced through the clouds, shooting toward them.

Soon, everyone saw clearly that the two scarlet streaks were giant skeletal birds with wings exceeding a hundred meters.

Roar!

As if sensing something, the two Flame Cloud Tiger Eagles raised their heads, roaring uneasily.

"Bone and Blood Demon Pigeons!"

Seeing the two Bone and Blood Demon Pigeons, Elder Yun’s face changed drastically.

Others’ faces were also somewhat grave; the Bone and Blood Demon Pigeons are Corpse Ghost Taoist’s mounts. Since they appeared, it means the Corpse Ghost Taoist has certainly arrived as well.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In a blink of an eye, the two Bone and Blood Demon Pigeons flew over everyone’s heads, their gigantic bodies suspended in mid-air like two immense blood clouds, making people feel oppressed.

"Heh heh, all of you are here."

Footsteps echoed, a figure shrouded in a black cloak emerged at the top of the Bone and Blood Demon Pigeons, overlooking everyone below. The blood-red ghost fire in his eye sockets flickered slightly with the hoarse, grating laughter, appearing extremely sinister and hideous.

"Corpse Ghost Taoist!"

Luo Feng instantly recognized the person.

The Corpse Ghost Taoist turned his gaze towards Luo Feng, the fire in his eyes flickering slightly, followed by a cruel laughter:

"Luo Feng, we meet again. Last time, because of you, I lost an arm and my Yuan Qi was severely injured. We need to settle this matter properly."

Last time, the Corpse Ghost Taoist’s right arm was severed by Su Zhuyun, and to regenerate it, his Yuan Qi was severely depleted, requiring at least a year and a half of cultivation to fully recover. However, knowing he wasn’t Su Zhuyun’s match, he vented all his resentment on Luo Feng.

Luo Feng raised an eyebrow, now noticing that the Corpse Ghost Taoist’s aura was significantly weaker than during their last encounter, now only slightly stronger than his own. Evidently, last time’s severed arm had grievously wounded him.

As Corpse Ghost Taoist’s words fell, Jiang Fengfeng’s disdainful voice rang.

"Corpse Ghost Taoist, you dare chase us here alone; it seems my senior sister didn’t punish you enough last time. This time, I not only want to sever your hands but also your head, let’s see if you can regenerate!"

Jiang Fengfeng stepped forward, a cold smile on her face, her finger directed, and the silver sword at her waist automatically unsheathed as she casually swung it.

Slice!

The entire space suddenly brightened for an instant, a snow-bright Sword Qi, a hundred meters long, soared up, slashing towards Corpse Ghost Taoist with unimaginable speed.

The Corpse Ghost Taoist stood proudly atop the Bone and Blood Demon Pigeon’s head, utterly unmoving, watching the Sword Qi about to slice him.

Suddenly.

Demonic Qi erupted from the back of another Bone and Blood Demon Pigeon, instantly forming a blood-colored skull.

Caw!

The blood-colored skull let out a strange cry, shooting downwards, opening its mouth to swallow the Sword Qi, chewing and swallowing it.

"What!"

Jiang Fengfeng’s face changed; having reached the late fifth stage of the True Yuan Realm, she was confident in her strength but hadn’t expected her sword to be so easily blocked.

Luo Feng’s face darkened, his gaze filled with slight alarm, directed at the other Bone and Blood Demon Pigeon.

At the moment the blood-colored skull appeared, he felt an overwhelming heaviness in his heart, as if pressed by a giant stone. It was the first time he felt such terrifying pressure!

Swish!

Su Zhuyun’s figure flashed, appearing beside Jiang Fengfeng.

"Senior Sister!"

Jiang Fengfeng had just opened her mouth when Su Zhuyun blocked her with a hand, raising her head calmly, "Blood Refining Sky Sacrifice Skill! Who might you be? Now that you’ve come, why hide your face."

"Hahahaha... Good insight, recognizing the Blood Refining Sky Sacrifice Skill. The Silver Swordman from the Sword Tomb indeed."

A burst of laughter echoed, suddenly, the whole sky filled with surging blood clouds; a middle-aged man in a blood robe emerged from behind the Bone and Blood Demon Pigeon, his eyes brimming with all sorts of wickedness, a glance would make anyone’s scalp tingle.

"Blood Shadow Demon General!"

Su Zhuyun’s eyes flickered, without hesitation, she drew the sword at her waist, looking wary.

"Blood Shadow Demon General! Blood Shadow Demon General is ranked around fifty among the hundred and eight Demon Generals of the Blood Demon Sect, a master in the Yuan Sea Realm, why are you here!"

Elder Yun’s expression changed significantly upon hearing Su Zhuyun call the blood-robed middle-aged man the Blood Shadow Demon General, and his face turned pale without a trace of blood.

Yuan Sea Realm Master!

Elder Yun’s words shook everyone; Chi Wei hid behind another Flame Cloud Tiger Eagle, trembling as she gazed at the two demon generals in the sky, her delicate body shivering.

Luo Feng also furrowed his brows; no wonder the pressure was so immense, because it was a Yuan Sea Realm master; things were worse than he anticipated.

"Blood Shadow Demon General,"

Elder Yun took a deep breath, barely retaining his composure, and addressed the Blood Shadow Demon General, "The nine holy lands of the Hundred Nations Territory made a truce with the major demon sects at Dragon-pattern Mountain, forbidding any master exceeding the Yuan Sea Realm from entering the rival’s sphere of influence. By doing this, you are openly challenging the nine holy lands! I advise you to leave immediately and avoid disaster!"

The Blood Shadow Demon General responded with a cold laugh, looking at Elder Yun disdainfully:

"The so-called truce is merely preparation for the next war. Decades have passed, and the Dragon-pattern Mountain agreement is practically void. Do you truly think, with the Dragon-pattern Mountain agreement, our West Desert Demon Sects will remain peaceful with your nine holy lands forever? How naive! Besides, if all of you die here, who will know I ever came to the Hundred Nations Territory?"

Elder Yun’s face darkened; he knew well that the Dragon-pattern Mountain agreement couldn’t last forever, only hoping to discourage the Blood Shadow Demon General into retreating, but now events seemed unlikely to be that simple.

Scanning around, Elder Yun’s expression grew more solemn.

Though there are many True Yuan Realm masters on their side, the strength of a Yuan Sea Realm master is exceptional; they stood no chance against the Blood Shadow Demon General, especially since their opponent wasn’t just the Blood Shadow Demon General alone.

Boom!

A blaze of fire soared into the sky at that moment, exploding in mid-air, staining half the sky blood-red as if a burning blood-red sun had risen, lingering.

This unexpected event alarmed everyone; even the Blood Shadow Demon General frowned at the blood sun.

Qiu Yue, who hadn’t spoken all along, stepped forward with a cold smile:

"Blood Shadow Demon General, Corpse Ghost Taoist, this is the Blazing Fire Bomb! A communication device of the Dali Dynasty royal family. Upon seeing this light, all masters nearby will rush here!"
