Shushan Arrives

"I never imagined that Master Xuantong of Nianhua Temple, would be such a highly accomplished monk, a master of the Void Refinement Realm. I even went to Nianhua Temple last month to offer incense and donate money for incense oil."

"Daoist Li of Yongning Temple is usually unkempt and doesn't manage the Daoist Temple properly, which has led to Daoist Temple decline. I never imagined he was such a highly skilled master. Good heavens, I even mocked him before."

"That's nothing. I didn't like him last year, so I beat him up. I actually took down Void Refinement Realm expert. That's something I can brag about for the rest of my life."

"It's truly surprising that the old Imperial Preceptor is still alive."

The reclusive masters of Tianyu City made their move, much to the astonishment of the Xia Kingdom's Rogue Cultivators and common people.

No one expected that several powerful cultivators at the Void Refinement Realm would be living in seclusion in Tianyu City.

Even the leader of the Demon Sects was deeply surprised.

Tianyu City has four experts at the Void Refinement Realm, and their cultivation levels are quite formidable within that Void Refinement Realm.

Tianyu City's strength is second only to the Sects.

"These people are hostile; they're probably not someone you or I can handle."

Daoist Li's expression was solemn. The Demon Lord's cultivation was unfathomable, and the Three Great Demon Sects were well-established figures.

The former emperor of the Xia Kingdom secretly transmitted his voice to the three. "I have a relationship with the Shushan Sect Master. As long as we stall until the Shushan arrives, we can resolve the crisis."

Master Xuantong clasped his hands together and said, "Only Shushan can stand against these Demons."

"Hmph, a bunch of Rogue Cultivators, daring to put up a last-ditch resistance. Let me show you the divine skills of this sect master."

The Hehuan Sect Master activated the Law Treasure Immortal Ring, Myriad Thoughts Emptiness transformed into a blazing sun, crashing down on the four Rogue Cultivators of Tianyu City.

"Great Wheel Heavenly Finger!"

Master Xuantong's entire body shone with a great aura of Buddha Light, and he concentrated his power in his fingertips. His finger strength transformed into golden light, resisting the Hehuan Sect's Sect-Guarding Law Treasure.

"Ten Thousand Swords Mourn Together!"

Daoist Li realized that Master Xuantong's cultivation was inferior to that of the Hehuan Sect Master, so he joined forces with Master Xuantong to take action.

There was clearly only one sword behind him, but when this Long Sword was drawn, it unleashed a sky full of sword Sword Qi, which crisscrossed the Sword Qi.

The swords in the hands of all the Swordsmen in Tianyu City seemed to be affected, and they all groaned in pain.

"Our Tianyu City actually has so many peerless masters."

Si Yan watched in awe as several peerless masters clashed.

She had lived in Tianyu City for over two hundred years and was completely unaware that the Imperial City had so many reclusive masters.

"No, even our ancestor and several reclusive masters are no match for these Demons..."

Si Yan saw that Master Xuantong and Daoist Li, two unparalleled masters, used their ultimate techniques together and were only on par with the Hehuan Sect Master.

The Hehuan Sect Master is able to take charge of one of the Four Great Demonic Sects Hehuan Sect. He is highly skilled in cultivation and Hehuan Sect's Sect-Guarding Law Treasure, "Myriad Thoughts Emptiness," making him someone that no Rogue Cultivator can rival.

"The power of Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact is indeed terrifying."

Master Xuantong and Daoist Li, two experts at the Void Refinement Realm, were repelled, intimidated by the Hehuan Sect's Sect-Guarding Law Treasure.

Ordinary Rogue Cultivators rarely obtain even a single Immortal Artifact, let alone Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact.

The Hehuan Sect Master possesses a Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact, whose combat power is equivalent to two rogue cultivators at the Great Rogue Cultivator of the Void Refinement Realm Great Completion.

"Their cultivation level isn't low, but unfortunately they don't have any decent Law Treasure. Hurry up and finish them off; the Shushan people is coming soon."

The Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master summoned a furnace. As soon as the furnace appeared, a scorching heat spread, and even the mortals in the city below felt the heatwave.

Honestly, I've been using this app to follow my favorite books lately. It has features like switching between different sources, multiple reading voice options, and it works on both Android and Apple devices.

The Demon-Summoning Devil Palace Palace Master's Law Treasure is a section of Demon Bone, radiating boundless Devil Qi.

The Three Great Demon Sects were all ruthless individuals. Upon realizing that the Shushan people was approaching, they immediately took action.

The Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master unleashed his Poison Cultivation Method, his furnace crackling with poisonous flames to suppress the old Grand Imperial Preceptor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

"The Golden General Demon-Subduing Ode!"

The old Imperial Preceptor wielded his divine brush, each stroke forming a chapter, and his Righteous Qi coalesced into a golden-armored divine general at the Void Refinement Realm, standing before him.

The golden-armored general brandished his Demon-Subduing Pestle and smashed it towards the furnace.

The Demon-Subduing Pestle struck the furnace with a loud bang.

The furnace, however, remained completely still.

"This is Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact from the Artifact Refinement Sect. Countless Immortal Artifacts have been forged in this furnace. It is incredibly sturdy and has been fused with my Poison Cultivation Method. How could a Rogue Cultivator at the Eighth Layer of the Void Refinement Realm possibly shake it in the slightest?"

The Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master activated the Poison Fire Furnace, which struck the Golden-Armored Divine General.

Another loud bang, and cracks appeared on the golden-armored general.

"She wasn't even serious yet, and my Cultivation Method were already struggling to defend against her."

The old Imperial Preceptor was pale.

The Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master's cultivation level is probably above the Void Refinement Realm.

"Die!"

The Demon Bone Law Treasure of the Demon-Summoning Devil Palace Palace Master struck the former emperor of the Xia Kingdom; even his Eighth Layer of the Void Refinement Realm cultivation could not withstand the attack of the immortal Immortal Artifact.

The former emperor of the Xia Kingdom suffered a severe blow, vomiting blood three times, his face turning ashen.

The former emperor of the Xia Kingdom wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "As expected of the sect leader of the Demon Sects, his cultivation is so profound."

"Those who oppose our Demon-Summoning Devil Palace will only face death."

The Demon Bones of the Demon-Summoning Devil Palace Palace Master, imbued with Great Demon power, once again attacked the former emperor of the Xia Kingdom.

"Puff."

Master Xuantong was struck by the Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact of the Hehuan Sect Master, Indestructible Vajra Secret Art was broken.

That is, Master Xuantong had perfected the Indestructible Vajra Secret Art. Otherwise, an ordinary cultivator would not just be injured when hit by Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact, but would be completely annihilated.

With the Three Great Demon Sects sect leaders taking action, the four Void Refinement Realm Rogue Cultivator in Tianyu City were already unable to withstand them, and the even more powerful Demon Lord stood by and watched.

The four Void Refinement Realm experts from Tianyu City all looked grim.

Such formidable enemies are beyond their ability to contend with.

"Die!"

The Hehuan Sect Master's Law Treasure struck again, its oppressive power unparalleled.

Suddenly, a Taiji Sword Qi slashed down, carrying the Yin-Yang Qi and Reverse Heaven and Earth.

The Hehuan Sect Master changed his expression and recalled his Law Treasure to defend against the Sword Qi.

The Hehuan Sect Master and his Immortal Artifact Law Treasure were knocked back several hundred steps by the Taiji Sword Qi.

"Taiyuan!"

The Hehuan Sect Master gritted his teeth; this Taiji Sword Qi was the Supreme Lore of the Taiyuan True Person.

When Taiyuan True Person entered the Dao Integration Realm, even though the Hehuan Sect Master possessed Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact, he was still repelled by Taiyuan True Person with a single strike.

"The Shushan have arrived!"

The four powerful figures at the Void Refinement Realm— the former emperor of the Xia Kingdom, the old Imperial Preceptor, Master Xuantong, and Daoist Li —finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hundreds of Elders from Shushan, led by Situ Kong and Taiyuan True Person, descended the mountain to support Tianyu City.

Situ Kong's confrontation with the Demon Lord deterred the Three Great Demon Sects sect leaders from making any rash moves.

Situ Kong had been at the Dao Integration Realm for a long time, and the Demon Lord had suffered losses at Situ Kong hands twice. The Three Great Demon Sects sect leaders were extremely wary of him.

"Quickly set up the formation."

Four teams of Shushan Disciples arrived around Tianyu City, set up Formations, and forcibly relocated the civilians inside the Tianyu City to prevent them from being caught in the crossfire.

The Demon Lord paid no heed to the Shushan's petty actions, but instead stared at Situ Kong: "Situ Kong, I owe my current cultivation level to you for injuring me twice. Now that my divine skill has reached its peak, you are doomed."

The Demon Lord activated his Cultivation Method, unleashing Demon Qi that blotted out the sky and covered thousands of miles.

Upon seeing the boundless demonic aura, the powerful figures of Mount Shu, including Situ Kong, Taiyuan Zhenren, the peak master of Biyue Peak, and the peak master of Chaoyuan Peak, activated their cultivation techniques with all their might.
