The Five Poisons Sect and the Mechanism Gate
"Lingshan? Could this be Miss Tian Lingshan, the daughter of Sect Master Tian of the Tiandao Sect?" A surprised exclamation rang out as Master Ku Mu stared at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in the red dress before him with astonishment in his eyes.
"The daughter of Sect Master Tian?" The words of the True Man Ming Jian caused many people present to gasp in surprise.
Medium Sect is defined as one with the Void Realm expert in charge and more than a hundred Nascent Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator among its members. The Tiandao Sect's Sect Master Medium Sect, Tian, is precisely such a Void Realm expert. Could this lively young girl before him really be the daughter of Tian Buyi the Tiandao Sect?
"Sect Master Tian? Our Qingxu Sword Sect's Sect Master Yi once said that Sect Master Tian is on par with him in Sword Dao. I never expected that even Miss Tian would have such skill in Sword Dao," the True Man Ming Jian said, his eyes like swords, staring intently at the girl in front of him.
Although this girl was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and her cultivation was only at the Return to Simplicity Realm Peak, and she had a pure and lovely appearance, as a Deity Transformation stage True Man Ming Jian, I could sense from my sword heart that the girl's Sword Dao cultivation was actually no weaker than mine.
The girl in the fiery red dress Tian Lingshan, showed no reaction to the gasps of surprise from those around her, clearly used to it. She simply stared at True Man Qing Feng with her bright, beautiful eyes and said with a laugh, "What? Don't you welcome me, Junior Nephew Qing Feng? It's a good thing I was worried you couldn't defeat the Asura Sect, so I brought in the Mechanism Gate and the Five Poisons Sect to help."
"The Mechanism Gate? The Five Poisons Sect? Are these two sects finally going to get involved?" Upon hearing this, True Man Qing Feng's eyes lit up, and Master Ku Mu and True Man Ming Jian, who were beside him, could not hide their joy.
When Zhuge Xiang set off to deal with the Puppet Cult, he already knew that Yanling Commandery had only one Large Sect, the Asura Sect, but six Medium Sect. In addition to the well-known Qingxu Sword Sect, Weituo Temple, and Tiandao Sect, the Mechanism Gate and the Five Poisons Sect were also among them.
However, while the Mechanism Gate excels at crafting mechanisms, its combat capabilities are lacking, much like the Puppet Cult. Furthermore, since their primary objective is to create wondrous Mechanical Puppet to attack the trade routes, they initially hesitated to deploy.
The Five Poisons Sect, because its headquarters were closest to the Endless Mountain Range where the Asura Sect was located, feared being targeted by the Asura Sect and therefore dared not join this so-called Alliance. However, they did not expect that Tian Lingshan would bring people from the Five Poisons Sect and the Mechanism Gate with her this time.
The Qingxu Sword Sect, Weituo Temple, Tiandao Sect, Mechanism Gate, Five Poisons Sect, and finally, the Medicine King Hall, which claims to avoid conflict, are the six Medium Sect of Yanling Commandery.
As for the Small Sect, there were originally twenty-two in Yanling Commandery. Unfortunately, the bloody battle fought by the Asura Sect wiped out ten Small Sect, such as the Puppet Cult. Now, there are only Twelve Small Sects left in Yanling Commandery.
"Hahaha, you are all fellow practitioners in Yanling Commandery who have been oppressed by the Asura Sect. How could we be absent from such a grand gathering to fight against the Asura Sect's tyranny?" The curtain of the tent was lifted, and two men walked in with smiles.
One of the short, stout men, the one who had just spoken, always wore a kind smile, like the Smiling Maitreya. On his left and right shoulders perched two exquisitely crafted Puppet birds, lifelike and incredibly lively.
Another man, whose appearance was not clearly seen, was wearing Purple Tight-Fitting Clothes and a mask. With each breath, one could see purple mist rising and falling from the mask.
"Tong Dalong, the Smiling Maitreya of the Mechanism Gate, and Poison Person Ying Wulin of the Five Poisons Sect?" Looking at the two people who entered, True Man Qing Feng could not hide his joy. He obviously knew these two people. They were both well-known Cultivator in Yanling Commandery.
"Our forces only take 30% of Yanling Commandery's resources, which is indeed too little. We must take 40%," said Poison Person Ying Wulin softly, arms crossed, explaining his position.
The Poison Person Ying Wulin, his entire body is poisonous, and even his breath carries a terrible poisonous gas. Therefore, he covers his face with a mask and speaks in a soft voice to avoid the Poisonous Fog from his mouth from harming those around him.
According to the rules of Yanling Commandery, once all resources are discovered, 30% goes to the Great Qin Imperial Family, 30% is divided equally among these Small and Medium-Sized Sects, and the remaining 40% goes to the Asura Sect. Now, it is these Small and Medium-Sized Sects that want to increase their share to 40%, which is why there is a dispute with the Asura Sect.
Zhuge Xiang was unaware of what had happened in the Alliance of these forces. In addition, the Five Poisons Sect and the Mechanism Gate sent very few people, only a dozen or so, all of whom were true elites. Therefore, even the Shadow Hall's forces failed to discover their whereabouts.
Thump thump thump...
As the war drums sounded, Zhuge Xiang straddled the Phoenix Winged Black Tiger, carrying Xiao Yue on his shoulder, and walked out. All the disciples of the Squad Twenty-Nine bowed to Zhuge Xiang in unison. Even the disciples from other groups looked at Zhuge Xiang with admiration in their eyes.
"Junior Brother Wuyan, what's going on?" Looking towards the Alliance, Zhuge Xiang frowned slightly and asked.
"Reporting to Squad Leader Zhuge, for some reason, the Alliance issued a challenge early this morning and launched a preemptive attack with high morale," Mo Wuyan, a hint of doubt on his face.
After more than half a month of fighting, the Asura Sect had taken the initiative in every attack. The Alliance members had been cautious and focused on defense, but they never expected that the Alliance would take the initiative to attack today.
"Oh? Could it be that you think that because the Qi Breaking Blade killed many of my renowned disciples on the last Battlefield, you have hope of victory?" A cold glint flashed in Zhuge Xiang's eyes, and his fighting spirit surged.
War means experience, it means strength; it can be said that Zhuge Xiang was filled with a desire for war.
Waaaaah...
At the same time, the Asura Sect's horn sounded. After more than half a month of fighting, although the Asura Sect Disciple Asura Sect Disciples had suffered many losses, those who remained were all elites. With the sound of the war horn, in the short time it takes to drink One Incense Stick of tea, the Asura Sect disciples had assembled and formed a square formation of five thousand people to meet the enemy.
"Charge!" Zhuge Xiang, riding on the back of the Phoenix Winged Black Tiger, charged ahead, his Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear booming in his hand. In every battle, Zhuge Xiang always at the forefront. With his invincible demeanor and formidable strength, he conquered the hearts of the Asura Sect Disciples on the Battlefield and became their spiritual pillar.
Although the three Hall Masters were at the Deity Transformation stage, they were merely decision-makers residing within their tents. It was the Squad Leader who truly led them into battle. Undeniably, Zhuge Xiang was the most outstanding among these Squad Leader. Naturally, Zhuge Xiang seemed to have become the commander of the tens of thousands of disciples of the Asura Sect.
Zhuge Xiang already an expert in warfare. As an example, he always charged ahead without hesitation. Seeing Zhuge Xiang's bravery, the Asura Sect Disciple were in high spirits, like tigers released from their cages, and often dealt heavy blows to the enemy.
Today, Zhuge Xiang, as usual, clamped his legs around the Phoenix Winged Black Tiger and charged out, while the other Asura Sect Disciples roared in battle.
Despite suffering losses from the opponent's Qi Breaking Blade in the last battle, resulting in the loss of many renowned high-level combatants, these Asura Sect Disciples are not afraid of battle.
However, just as Zhuge Xiang rushed out today, he was surrounded by three disciples. All three disciples possessed Flying Magic Artifact and formed a triangle in the air, blocking Zhuge Xiang's path.
To Zhuge Xiang's left rear, there was a thin monk, about forty years old, with his head bowed and eyes downcast. This monk had a sense of great tranquility, and no trace of his aura could be felt from him. If you closed your eyes, you could not feel his presence, just like a mountain rock.
To the right rear was a man of about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, holding a sharkskin longsword in his arms. Although he had no aura at all, a sharp Sword Intent emanated from him, as if he possessed a peerless sword within him.
Whether it was the monk or the sword-wielding man, Zhuge Xiang only sensed a faint threat from them. What truly made Zhuge Xiang uneasy was the young girl floating in front of him...
Looking at the girl, she was dressed in a fiery red dress, floating in the air. A gentle breeze blew the hem of her dress, making it look like Flame. The girl had a pair of intelligent eyes, giving people the feeling of being quirky and mischievous. She looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, several years younger than Zhuge Xiang. However, Zhuge Xiang felt a sense of threat from her that he did not feel from anyone else.
"Oh? After I killed Nine Limit Experts last time, you're still not giving up? This time you're only sending three of you to your deaths?" Sitting on the back of the Phoenix Winged Black Tiger, Zhuge Xiang held the Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear, looking imposing. Although he was inwardly serious, his face was disdainful, as if he didn't take these three people seriously at all.
"Amitābha Buddha, this humble monk knows I am no match for you, benefactor. I merely wish to keep you here so that you will not interfere with this occupation," said the Monk Jie Chen calmly, holding a string of Prayer Beads Strung from Thirty-Six Jade Beads.
"You want to keep me here? Do you even have the ability? Even Nine Limit Experts couldn't succeed back then," Zhuge Xiang 'Zhuge Xiang eyes narrowed slightly, and an extremely sharp killing intent leaked from the slits in his eyes.
"Zhuge Xiang! Known as the God of Slaughter! He has the strength to kill Nascent Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator. I'll take this opportunity to see how much strength I've gained after ten years of arduous cultivation," the sword-wielding man said, his eyes flashing like lightning, shooting towards Zhuge Xiang like two sharp Sword Qi.
"Hehehe, Zhuge Xiang, the God of Slaughter? I've heard of your name too. You can't break this Three Talents Formation. How about a one-on-one duel after the war?" The girl in the fiery red dress stared intently at Zhuge Xiang with her beautiful eyes, asking with great curiosity, as if she had seen something very interesting. (To be continued...)
