Chapter 235 Have I Been Too Idle?
An angry holler suddenly resonated across the skies.
“How dare you! Which evil demon dares to hurt my Martial Nephew Shen Tian?”
A dazzling silver light shot over.
This divine light froze everything it came into contact with, even space itself. It was as if it possessed all the cold power in the world.
“Jade Lake Sacred Ground’s divine artifact, the Jade Mirror?”
The face of the red-robed Sect Master froze. A blood-red screen surrounded his body to meet the silver light.
Crack!
The moment the blood-red screen met the silver divine light, the entire screen froze before slowly cracking.
Shen Tian felt like the entire space around him was being distorted. Two figures had already appeared before him.
“Tian’er, don’t be afraid. We are here. This scoundrel will not be able to hurt you!”
Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus stood side by side in front of Shen Tian, protecting him.
The two of them gazed solemnly at the red-robed Sect Master. “The Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect? How dare you barge into the Primordial Battlefield?”
The red-robed Sect Master looked calmly at Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus.
“Didn’t expect you two to arrive so quickly.
“A pity that you are both too weak. Neither of you is a match for me!
“Also, before I made my move earlier, I already used a technique to seal off this entire area within 1,000 miles.
“Unless you already contacted the Saints from your sects before I used the sealing technique, no one will know what is happening.” The red-robed Sect Master smiled smugly.
“And even if you managed to contact them before coming, it would still be too late.
“With my powers, I can immediately annihilate you all with just the flip of my palm!”
The red-robed Sect Master cackled maliciously. He suddenly executed some hand seals.
At that moment, countless white bones emerged from the ground, creating a forest of white bones. Every single bone was extremely sharp and shimmering in the light. The bones were so sharp that they were making cuts along space.
“White Bone World, rise!”
The red-robed Sect Master called out in a cold voice as countless white bones shot straight at Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance, Heavenly Venerable White Lotus, and Shen Tian.
It was clear that this was an extremely high-level Dharma technique.
These white bones all had the ability to penetrate the body of even a peak Soul Formation practitioner.
As high-level as Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus were, both would suffer serious injuries if those bones hit them.
“Brilliant Jade Moon!”
“Blooming White Lotus!”
The faces of Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus shifted as they quickly activated their own protection weapons.
A pristine white mirror and a pure white 7th Stage lotus floated above their heads.
The items emitted a faint glow, which formed a double-layered barrier to shield Shen Tian against those white bones.
Countless white bones collided continuously against the barrier, depleting its energy.
Nevertheless, Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus constantly infused their strength into the barrier, replenishing its power.
For the moment, there was really nothing he could do to this trio.
“The sacred grounds are indeed very generous. Even cultivators at the Soul Formation stage can each possess one Divine artifact. So envious.” The red-robed Sect Master looked rather pleased. “A pity for you that these two Divine artifacts will belong to me from now
on!”
A dark-red light shone within the red-robed Sect Master’s hand.
A blood-red pearl appeared, glowing softly.
After this pearl appeared, the originally white bone forest instantly turned a blood-red color.
Swoosh!
A blood-red bone shot toward Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus, forcing its way through the double-layered light barrier.
Luckily, the bone’s power was significantly decreased after penetrating the barrier and was easily blocked.
But this was just the start. This was because even more blood-red bones were flying straight at them now.
Countless blood-red bones shot at Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus, causing micro-tears across space as they flew.
“This is the Seven Killing Pearl, the great evil weapon of the Evil Spirit Sect. We are not his match. Hurry up, take Tian’er with you and leave!”
Heavenly Venerable White Lotus emitted a heavenly aura. One could see the Spirit Qi transforming into fluttering butterflies.
She suddenly performed some hand seals, prepared to stop the red-robed Sect Master at all costs.
“I have heard that Heavenly Venerable White Lotus is one of the best alchemists in the Eastern Wilderness. Why do you insist on becoming my enemy?”
The red-robed Sect Master smirked. “I already said that as long as no Saint comes to save you, even if you guys put in your best effort, it will be like an ant trying to stop a chariot!
“Never mind, I am tired of playing around!”
The red-robed Sect Master clenched his right hand, and a blood-red bone spear appeared. He waved the bone spear, and it enlarged by a thousand times, morphing into a massive weapon.
As the bone spear descended, it created massive tears across space. The aura of the bone spear suppressed the trio completely, such that they were unable to escape.
Old Man Ye, prepare to make your attack!
Shen Tian sighed in resignation as he intoned silently.
He would have to expend a lot of resources to activate the God of War Pagoda, but this was a life-and-death situation. Everything else would have to take a backseat. Shen Tian was not the kind of person who would just stand by and watch others die, especially if these people had come just to save him!
At that point, Ye Qingcang’s laughter echoed in his mind.
“No need to be so anxious. It’s not time for me to make my move yet!”
The blood-red bone spear was still descending. The tears in space spread out and were nearly reaching Shen Tian.
Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus both had resolute expressions. They looked like they had decided to protect Shen Tian at all costs.
After all, Tian’er was ‘their’ disciple!
Surprisingly, the massive blood-red spear suddenly stopped. The tears in space also stopped spreading, while the bones in the area all turned to dust.
A mild voice resonated across the sky.
“Have I been too idle? Or have you little punks become too audacious? It has been a few hundred years since I have sought out you punks, but you dare to take the initiative to attack my people now?”
Cracks appeared on the massive blood-red bone spear, spreading rapidly.
An old Taoist priest suddenly appeared. He was wearing a Taoist robe, with a full head of snow-white hair and rosy cheeks. His arms were relatively muscular, and he exuded a fierce and vigorous aura.
The old Taoist priest smashed the bone spear with his right fist. The spear cracked into pieces under the terrifying force.
“Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus?”
The red-robed Sect Master’s face stiffened upon gazing at the old Taoist priest.
The younger generation might not know how terrifying this old Taoist priest was, but the red-robed Sect Master was from the earlier generation.
He was well aware of how perverse and powerful this guy was more than anyone else.
This fellow had killed his own master! Even though his cultivation level had been lower!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had also lost all his powers then and had to start cultivating all over again. But many years had passed, and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had once again returned to the Heavenly Venerable stage. On top of that, he was a Godfiend Heavenly Venerable.
Even though he was a Saint, the red-robed Sect Master was not confident of winning.
Fear crept across the red-robed Sect Master’s heart, while Heavenly Venerable White Lotus and Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance both heaved a sigh of relief, especially Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance.
A faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
Did Senior Brother Chu just say that I am his people? That I belong to him?
Hehe, we are already so old. How can he still say such things?
And in front of the children! Shameless!
“First Senior Brother has arrived just in time. Don’t let this evil sect leader escape!”
Heavenly Venerable White Lotus was a kind-hearted soul. She majored in the cultivation of elixirs and pills and often descended the mountains to save the ill and weak.
Faced with the red-robed Sect Master’s “White Bone World” technique, she could clearly feel it harbored a limitless amount of resentment energy. It was obvious that this Dharma treasure was not an orthodox weapon. It had been forged from the sacrificial blood of countless living creatures.
As gentle as Heavenly Venerable White Lotus was, she was now filled with a killing intent toward the red-robed Sect Master.
Of course, it was not because First Senior Brother had come instead of Second Senior Brother. She was definitely not venting her anger on the red-robed Sect Master because of that.
Heavenly Venerable Chu Longhe nodded. “Don’t worry. This punk dared to attack my Martial Nephew, so there’s no way I will show mercy!”
With that, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus patted Shen Tian on the shoulders. His face was full of fatherly love. “Tian’er, stand to the side with your two Aunt-Masters. Just watch as I avenge you!”
Shen Tian could feel that this Azure Lotus felt different from the Azure Lotus he had met previously.
But Shen Tian obediently stood to the side. After all, why waste his own resources to settle this when his senior was offering to do so?
This young man entered the Primordial Battlefield and gained great fortuitous opportunities. He even got his hands on the Feather Immortal Metal, ranked 8th on the Immortal Metal List!
Also, I can feel the Five Elements energy circulating vigorously inside his body. His foundation is solid beyond belief.
Hmph, he must have gained quite a bit in the Primordial Battlefield. I must find some way to take a share!
I will take this opportunity to foster some master-disciple ties with this young man!
As a million thoughts crossed the mind of Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, he slowly drew out the long rod behind him.
A flaming aura, even more powerful than his previous one, surged throughout his entire body. His muscles started to expand.
The Taoist robe was being stretched to the maximum, and one could clearly see his muscles’ outline against the cloth. Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance blushed at the sight.
“Evil Spirit Sect Master, time for you to die!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus charged toward the red-robed Sect Master with a golden rod in his right hand.
An intense and incredible force could be felt the moment he struck out with the rod.
The air around the rod turned to dust, and black cracks along the space followed the old Taoist priest as he charged toward the Sect Master.
“Scoundrel, I am a Saint while you are just an ant who has yet to enter the Saint stage. How can I possibly be defeated by you?”
A sliver of panic surfaced in the eyes of the red-robed Sect Master, but he refused to show any fear.
After all, his disciples were still in the valley!
He calmly infused the Seven Killing Pearl with more blood. The pearl glowed even more brightly. A bone spear in an even deeper shade of red was formed. A bizarre dark pattern covered the spear, making it look rather demonic. “Kill the skies, the earth, the deities, Buddha, ghosts, demons, all living things. Kill all seven!”
The hair of the red-robed Sect Master flew around wildly as he was engulfed in a blood-red river. His aura surged out like a wave.
He struck out with the spear, which morphed into hundreds of thousands of spear projections, cutting off Heavenly Venerable Chu Longhe completely.
Although he was faced with an opponent who was at a lower level than him, he did not dare to underestimate him.
He was launching an all-out attack!
