Ink Martial City, the Asura Sect Inner Sect, the Shadow Hall.

"Xiao Xiao, what brings you here?" Man Kui, a robust man, slowly walked over to Xiao Xiao, the Shadow Hall Master, and asked her. His eyes revealed an undisguised admiration, and his face was filled with joy. He was Man Kui pleased to hear from his subordinate that Xiao Xiao wanted to see him. He had a chance to be alone with the beauty.

"Master Hall Master, please take a look at this intelligence report." However, Xiao Xiao's expression was serious, clearly indicating that she hadn't summoned him for a Flower Before Moon with Man Kui.

Seeing Xiao Xiao's businesslike attitude as she handed over the intelligence documents, Man Kui was secretly disappointed. He took the documents from Xiao Xiao, examined them closely, and his expression changed drastically. He suddenly looked up at Xiao Xiao and asked, "Is this real? That Golden Winged Corpse King actually laid such a large net in our Yanling Commandery?"

"It's not just our Yanling Commandery; if I'm not mistaken, it's the entire Great Qin Empire. It seems Zhuge Xiang has unwittingly encountered a big fish this time," Xiao Xiao said with a serious expression.

Unwittingly, what started as helping Zhuge Xiang investigate the theft of the body turned into an unexpected and shocking discovery.

"I have already reported this situation to the Sect elders. This is not something our Inner Sect can handle. The reason I summoned Hall Master is because Zhuge Xiang acted on his own and went to the stronghold in Clear Spring Village to investigate. As far as I know, there are five One-Star Hairy Zombie and one Two-Star Hairy Zombie in Clear Spring Village. This trip is extremely risky. Zhuge Xiang is, after all, a disciple of your Battle Hall, so I hope Hall Master will rescue him as soon as possible."

Man Kui felt a mix of emotions. Along the way, Zhuge Xiang's extraordinary talent had undeniably filled Man Kui with envy and even fear. He was afraid that Zhuge Xiang would surpass him and seize his position as the leader of the War Hall Master. Now, Xiao Xiao was actually asking him to go and rescue Man Kui was overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

"Alright! I'll set off right away." However, although his heart was filled with complicated emotions, Man Kui's expression didn't change much. He nodded and decisively turned to leave.

Given Zhuge Xiang's reputation within the Asura Sect, and considering the great merit he unintentionally rendered, the Asura Sect has no choice but to intervene and Rescue him.

"I hope everything will develop in a positive direction; otherwise, our Inner Sect will inevitably face turmoil." Watching Man Kui's departing figure, Xiao Xiao's brows were furrowed with deep, unyielding worry.

"Do your best and leave the rest to fate. Everything should come to an end eventually," a figure emerged from the shadows and spoke. Who else could it be but Luo Wuxue, the leader of the Blood Hall?

The intelligence from Moluo City revealed that Zhuge Xiang had gone to Clear Spring Village alone. Xiao Xiao and Luo Wuxue were secretly alarmed. Luo Wuxue immediately expressed his desire to go to the rescue, but Xiao Xiao stopped him. In Xiao Xiao's opinion, it was most appropriate for Man Kui to go to the rescue.

Man Kui's jealous nature towards talented people was something Xiao Xiao and Luo Wuxue were well aware of. Luo Wuxue had even spoken to Zhuge Xiang about it in person, suggesting that they take this opportunity to bring the matter to the forefront.

If Man Kui can truly put aside his jealousy and go to the rescue, then everyone will be happy. Otherwise, it will allow Zhuge Xiang to clearly see Man Kui's true colors.

"Alright, I should get going too," Luo Wuxue said after Man Kui left, turning to depart as Second Line of Defense.

Zhuge Xiang's recent fame in Yanling Commandery has even caught the attention of the elders at the Sect Headquarters, so the Inner Sect must not lose such a person.

Man Kui Artifact Flight through the air on his magical artifact, followed by ten Asura Warships. The pilots of these Warships were all powerful disciples from the Battle Hall. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Man Kui did not tell these people the purpose of this mission. Moreover, none of the disciples he brought with him were from Squad Twenty-Nine.

Artifact Flight ahead of the ten Asura Warships on his magical artifact, Man Kui was torn between his inner thoughts and his own. The drive and ambition that Zhuge Xiang had displayed over the past few years made Man Kui feel a strong sense of threat.

Given Zhuge Xiang's current momentum, once he breaks through to the Deity Transformation stage, how could there be a place for him in the Battle Hall? Let alone in the future, even now, Zhuge Xiang's influence in the Inner Sect is already threatening to Man Kui.

From a jealous perspective, Man Kui really didn't want to save Zhuge Xiang. He would have preferred Zhuge Xiang to die out there. Over the years, many talented disciples had been killed by Man Kui using such dishonorable methods.

However, Man Kui hesitated regarding Zhuge Xiang.

Given Zhuge Xiang's current influence, even the Sect elders have begun to pay attention to Zhuge Xiang. This was evident from the fact that when Myriad Flowers Elder's disciple made an exception to recruit Zhuge Xiang into the sect, it was clear that if there was no plausible reason, and Zhuge Xiang was tricked and killed, and the investigation revealed that the suspect was pointing to him, Man Kui knew he would be in deep trouble.

Should he go? Or find an excuse not to go? In his heart, Man Kui desperately didn't want to go, but an excuse? He simply couldn't come up with a suitable one...

Boom!!!

Whether it was Man Kui's Luck or not, suddenly, the spiritual energy between Heaven and Earth fluctuated violently, as if a Vital Energy Storm had swept through. At the same time, a hundred miles away, golden raindrops formed from spiritual energy fell from the sky, giving people a dreamlike beauty in the evening when the sun was setting.

"Spirit Qi into Rain? Judging from this, Spirit Vein is emerging!? Which direction is it? Is it the direction of Spirit Stone Vein?" Looking at the beautiful scene of countless golden spiritual rains falling from a hundred miles away, Man Kui's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in surprise.

The Spirit Stone Vein was discovered in Yanling Commandery, and it even became the trigger for an Ore Vein between the Asura Sect and the Alliance of Small and Medium-Sized Sects in Yanling Commandery. However, Man Kui never expected that Spirit Vein would be born in this Spirit Stone Vein.

Spirit Vein are the foundation of the Sect and the essence of a large Spirit Stone Vein. Generally, Cultivation Sect choose to locate their sites on Spirit Vein. Only in this way can the spiritual energy emitted by the Spirit Vein allow their disciples to cultivate more efficiently.

Of course, not all Spirit Stone Vein Spirit Vein. Only those Spirit Stone Vein that have already formed a significant presence and whose concentration of spiritual energy has reached a very high standard can give birth to true Spirit Vein.

Originally, the Spirit Stone Vein in Yanling Commandery was not qualified to form Spirit Vein, but now, judging from the defenses and the setup, it is indeed the Spirit Stone Vein being mined that has given birth to Spirit Vein...

Gazing at the magnificent scene of Spirit Qi into Rain in the distance, the Asura Sect Disciples aboard the ten Asura Warships were all dumbfounded and speechless.

They had only heard of Spirit Vein, but had never seen one with their own eyes. Now, a Spirit Vein that had already been born had actually appeared.

Watching the Spirit Qi into Rain and the Spirit Vein emerge, and glancing in the direction of Moluo City where Zhuge Xiang was, Man Kui hesitated for a moment before waving his hand and ordering the ten Asura Warship behind him. "With the emergence of the Spirit Vein, many Deity Transformation Stage Cultivators in Yanling Commandery will risk everything to seize it. All disciples, follow me to the Spirit Vein to guard it."

"Yes, Hall Master!" These disciples naturally knew the value of the Spirit Vein, and they responded to Man Kui's order without hesitation. Immediately, all the Asura Warship turned around and headed towards the Spirit Stone Vein.

"Is this Heaven's will?" About Half a Tea Interval of tea's time had passed since Man Kui and the Asura Warship left. In the gradually darkening night sky, a figure appeared. It was Luo Wuxue. Looking at the Asura Warship gradually disappearing into the distance, Luo Wuxue's face was filled with helpless emotion as he murmured.

The emergence of the Spirit Vein is a momentous event, but the most appropriate course of action would be for Man Kui to lead a few Asura Warship to guard it, while the other Asura Warship would sail to Moluo City to provide assistance.

With three or five Asura Warships, it would be enough to delay the enemy in Moluo City for a considerable time. Then, when the Inner Sect's reinforcements arrived, the main force could march to Moluo City. However, Man Kui took all the Asura Warship to guard the Spirit Vein.

Shaking his head, Luo Wuxue sighed inwardly. Then, he took out a talisman from the Void, ignited it with his Vital Energy, and explained the situation to the burning talisman. Afterward, Luo Wuxue accelerated at full speed and rushed towards Moluo City.

Sound Transmission Talisman are a common type of talisman in the Cultivation World. They allow people thousands of miles away to hear what one wants to say. Luo Wuxue will fly over to help Moluo City for now, and Xiao Xiao will naturally send the Asura Warship to provide support later.

The reinforcements from the Asura Sect are on their way, but can Zhuge Xiang and his group hold out until Luo Wuxue arrives?

With his Explosive Steps combined with Palm Thunder, Zhuge Xiang's attacks were almost impossible for anyone to dodge. However, the Two-Star Hairy Zombie's terrifyingly strong physical defense rendered Zhuge Xiang's attacks completely ineffective.

Facing the Two-Star Hairy Zombie, Zhuge Xiang almost had the illusion that he was facing a Body Tempering Realm Cultivator when he was in the Qi Cultivation Realm.

"Ignorant fool, an ant is nothing but an ant," Zhuge Xiang's attack, though powerful, left him completely unharmed. The Two-Star Hairy Zombie looked down at Zhuge Xiang with disdain, raising his hand as he spoke, and another Soul Devouring Prison Fire ignited.

Three Consecutive Slashes!

Seeing Hairy Zombie's Soul Devouring Prison Fire, Zhuge Xiang's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew very well that he absolutely could not let the opponent launch the attack, otherwise, he would definitely not be able to withstand it.

With a flash, Zhuge Xiang reappeared behind Hairy Zombie, but his Three Consecutive Slashes combo still couldn't break through Hairy Zombie's defenses...

However, Zhuge Xiang didn't expect the Three Consecutive Slashes to harm the opponent. He was just using it as Explosive Steps. After the Three Consecutive Slashes, Zhuge Xiang Zhuge Xiang a Knockback Skill to send the Hairy Zombie Knockback again, interrupting its attack... (To be continued...)
