Chapter 415: Reunion of Master and Disciples, Ambush on the Immortal
Chapter 415: Reunion of Master and Disciples, Ambush on the Immortal
An aura comparable to that of an Immortal Venerable rippled through the heavens and the earth, yet Xu Yan and Meng Chong remained unfazed, as if they had expected this.
"Xue Zimuo, you're a little too fast this time," Xu Yan said calmly.
As he finished speaking, he and Meng Chong, who had regained their physical form, vanished from sight, fleeing into the distance.
"Let's see how long you can run!" Xue Zimuo said, his eyes cold.
He gave chase once more, but soon lost the trail of Xu Yan and Meng Chong, something he had anticipated.
Hidden within the clouds, a dozen miles away, Xu Yan and Meng Chong, their auras concealed as they merged with the clouds, watched as Xue Zimuo's figure disappeared from view.
"Xue Zimuo is relentless. We can only shake him temporarily unless we leave Jiushan Province," Meng Chong said, his brows furrowed.
"No hurry, we'll cut him down sooner or later," Xu Yan replied with a cold smile.
"Tian Shadi Ying really has some tricks up their sleeve. They managed to get Mingyu Xuezi into the Divine Realm, and they have people in all the major powers of Jiushan Province, including the Immortal Venerables. That big cat, Chi Mao, is getting more and more cunning."
The situation in Jiushan Province was chaotic, and even Lingzun Mountain, which should have stayed out of it, had been dragged into the mess. The Master of Lingzun Sect had even been "injured," though only he knew if it was real or fake.
Lingzun Mountain's Fengling Tiger had shown its might, intimidating numerous Immortal Venerables. While this prevented a major upheaval, minor disturbances continued to plague the sect.
And only Chi Mao knew how this chaos had been orchestrated.
"That Tian Shiqi has probably been tracking us all this time," Meng Chong said gravely.
Tian Shiqi's strength far surpassed Xue Zimuo's, and if they encountered him, escaping would be no easy task.
"Maybe," Xu Yan breathed, scanning their surroundings. "Next, we clean up those Xuezi followers. Once we're done, we'll leave Da Gai Mountain."
He, Xu Yan, did not like owing favors. It was time to conclude his collaboration with the Wan family.
Moreover, the Wan family was currently under immense pressure. It was uncertain how long they could withstand it and continue shielding him and Meng Chong from the targeting of the Immortal Venerables.
"Good!" Meng Chong nodded.
The two moved, beginning their sweep of Da Gai Mountain to eliminate the infiltrated Xuezi followers.
In the ancestral land of the Wan family, Wan Tianlin looked up at the sky, a hint of reluctance on his face.
As the pride of the Wan family and a promising candidate for an Immortal Venerable, he was now confined to the ancestral land, constantly under the watchful eyes of the Immortal Venerables to prevent any assassination attempts.
For his safety, Wan Tianlin could not take a step outside the ancestral land.
"Sometimes, I really envy Brother Xu. He's so carefree and fearless, not giving a second thought to the threats of stronger cultivators," Wan Tianlin thought.
Xu Yan was cleaning up Tian Shadi Ying on Da Gai Mountain, forcing a portion of their members to retreat. He had even extracted and slain several of their members, causing significant losses to Da Gai Mountain.
While this was beneficial to the Wan family, the infiltration of the Mingyu Xuezi followers, especially Xue Zimuo's killing spree, was causing considerable damage to the mountain.
And the Wan family's Immortal Venerables were unable to spare any attention.
"To be able to escape from Xuezi's grasp, Brother Xu and Meng Chong are truly this era's pride!" Wan Tianlin had to admit that when it came to being the pride of their generation, he paled in comparison to Xu Yan and Meng Chong.
If he were in their situation, he would have likely been killed already. How could he have had any chance of escape under Xue Zimuo's pursuit?
"I hope Brother Xu can make it out safely," Wan Tianlin sighed helplessly. There was little he could do to help at this moment.
Convincing the family's Immortal Venerable to hold off the pressure from Qiandie Mountain and Hengfeng Mountain was already the extent of his capabilities.
"Boom!"
Meng Chong's fist exploded, taking out another Xuezi follower.
"Seven more to go," Xu Yan said in a low voice.
A trail of blood-red light appeared in the sky—Xue Zimuo was hot on their trail.
The two instantly disappeared from sight.
With their crackdown, only seven Xuezi followers remained on Da Gai Mountain.
"Senior Brother, there's something fishy about the last place. All seven of them are gathered there," Meng Chong said, rubbing his bald head.
Xu Yan sneered, "Xue Zimuo isn't here, and with the battle between the Immortal Venerables raging, the chaotic energy makes it the perfect opportunity for an Immortal Venerable skilled in stealth to infiltrate Da Gai Mountain unnoticed. It must be an Earth Shadow."
"Could it be Tian Shiqi?" Meng Chong asked.
"Tian Shiqi is a Sky Devil. With his strength, the Wan family would definitely notice his presence," Xu Yan shook his head.
"Let's go check out this Immortal Earth Shadow's strength. If it's possible..." Xu Yan's eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
While killing numerous Tian Shadi Ying members was satisfying, it wasn't a significant loss for the organization. However, if they could take out an Immortal, that would be a substantial blow to Tian Shadi Ying.
"The Wan family also wants to hunt down the hidden Blood Disciples. Let them send their strong cultivators here. Since that Immortal Venerable dared to attempt a sneak attack, why don't we turn the tables and ambush him instead?" Xu Yan suggested with a playful smile.
When it came to ambushing, he was confident in his skills, even an Immortal Venerable was no match for him.
Meng Chong nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, Xu Yan's eyebrows furrowed as he took out a communication talisman. "Hmm, our Fifth Junior Brother has come to the Jiushan Province." He was surprised.
He had expected the talisman to be from Wan Tianlin or Chi Mao, but it turned out to be from Jiang Buling instead.
"Oh, has Fifth Junior Brother successfully entered the Wan family's territory?" Meng Chong asked, his eyes shining with anticipation.
"Fifth Junior Brother is already here at Da Gai Mountain, within the range of the communication talisman. Let's put the matter of ambushing the Immortal Venerable aside for now and go meet Fifth Junior Brother," Xu Yan said.
"I've only just begun to learn it myself, and I haven't mastered many of the Extreme Soul divine abilities yet." Jiang Buling shook his head.
In terms of strength, Jiang Buling was still slightly inferior to his senior disciples. He had yet to master many of the Extreme Soul Martial Arts techniques and had only recently begun his training.
Even with the guidance and personal instruction of their master, and his own insight into a new technique of extreme slaughter, he was still a novice.
"Fifth Junior Brother's Extreme Soul Martial Arts are even more challenging for ordinary warriors to defend against. With your current strength, if you strike unexpectedly, even an Immortal Venerable will suffer soul damage." Xu Yan said solemnly.
The essence of Extreme Soul Martial Arts lay in its extremity, which also made it more difficult to defend against. Divine Realm warriors unfamiliar with this art would be at a significant disadvantage if caught off guard, and even an Immortal Venerable would suffer greatly.
"I didn't expect Fourth Junior Brother to have already refined new message talismans. Now we don't have to worry about being out of range for communication." Meng Chong held a message talisman in his hand, communicating with Fang Hao.
After the three disciples caught up with each other, Jiang Buling suggested, "Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, I heard that Xue Zimuo is chasing after you. Why don't we..." His eyes gleamed with eagerness, and his intent to fight was clear.
"Good idea, Junior Brother! The three of us brothers will join forces, slay an Immortal, and shake the Tian Shadi Ying to its core!" Xu Yan laughed heartily.
"Xue Zimuo, we'll deal with you later. For now, we're going after another Immortal Venerable. Fifth Junior Brother, your stealth and concealment techniques should be able to evade detection even from an Immortal Venerable..." Jiang Buling's arrival, along with his considerable strength, especially in the Extreme Soul Martial Arts, meant that the three of them working together should be able to take down an ordinary Immortal easily.
The three disciples began to discuss their plan to ambush the Immortal Venerable from Tian Shadi Ying.
Before taking action, they needed to lure Xue Zimuo away once more, keeping him far from the Immortal Venerable's location to prevent him from interfering with their ambush.
The seven Blood Disciples had been waiting restlessly, deliberately revealing their traces to lure Xu Yan and Meng Chong into an attack. But they dared not act on their own, as it was Xue Zimuo's order, and they knew an Immortal Venerable was lurking underground where they stood.
"Scum from the Underworld, die!" Suddenly, two figures appeared and launched an attack. They were none other than two elders from the Wan family.
"Not good!" The seven Blood Disciples' faces paled as they realized it wasn't Xu Yan and Meng Chong who had arrived, but the elders of the Wan family!
Boom!
The battle erupted, with the seven Blood Disciples fighting against the two Wan family elders. Despite their numerical advantage, they were no match for the elders, and they were forced to retreat, drawing further away from the Immortal Venerable's hiding place.
Underground, buried under several feet of soil, an Immortal Venerable with a cloudy Yin-Yang mask watched the distant battle with indecision. Should he scare away the Wan family elders?
If he revealed his presence, the Wan family's Immortals would surely find out that an Immortal Venerable was hiding in Da Gai Mountain, and Xu Yan and Meng Chong would be warned, ruining their plan.
If he acted and killed the elders, his presence would also be exposed.
As he hesitated, the soil suddenly surged, and a fierce sword intent akin to a flowing river appeared, accompanied by a landscape of mountains and rivers. A sharp and ruthless sword struck down!
Boom!
"Xu Yan!"
In that instant, his aura burst forth, the power of the Immortal Venerable shaking the heavens and earth. The landscape of mountains and rivers collapsed, and a young man holding a sword appeared, his body surrounded by revolving sword wheels that spun endlessly.
"You've come at just the right time. Today, you die!" The Immortal Venerable smiled coldly.
Boom! The might of the Immortal Venerable exploded, but he soon frowned as he found his control over the power of the heavens and earth hindered, as if another force was resisting him.
It was a landscape of mountains and rivers, a manifestation of the power of the heavens and earth.
"What kind of martial art is this?"
His heart trembled with fear, and his killing intent grew even colder. This monstrous genius must die. The more monstrous Xu Yan was, the greater the chaos that would ensue from his death!
Boom!
The Immortal Venerable's sword tore through the landscape of mountains and rivers, his power unparalleled as he struck towards Xu Yan.
Buzz!
Xu Yan's expression remained unchanged as he retreated, using the Yin-Yang Undying Sword to dissipate the force of the strike, and his Unchanging Sword Intent surged like a mighty wave.
"Immortal Venerable, you're not so formidable!"
Xu Yan sneered and pretended to retreat.
"You can't escape!"
The Immortal Venerable smiled coldly and took a step forward, his killing intent surging.
