The Great Battle Is About to Begin

With such a massive lineup, descending upon Misty Cloud Mountain like dark clouds pressing down on the city, everyone gained a new understanding of Heavenly Snake Mansion.

No wonder Yan Luo Cang suggested seeking reinforcements from Heavenly Snake Mansion back then. With such a powerful sect, no force from other countries could possibly resist them.

Outside Misty Cloud Mountain, two shadowy figures watched this scene unfold, letting out sinister cackles.

"Old Zhou really is a master strategist. With a little trick, he had these harlots from Heavenly Snake Mansion running around in circles."

"Hall Master, you flatter me. This is merely the Misty Cloud Sect's excessively rapid development, which has caused fear and dissatisfaction among the many major powers in the northwest. I merely needed to stir the pot a little, and this destabilizing factor took care of itself."

Wang Ba nodded. "Indeed. However, I just took a look, and the strength of this Misty Cloud Sect Ancestor isn't that high. She's probably just being hyped up by others. I believe with Heavenly Snake Mansion's foundation, they can definitely flatten the Misty Cloud Sect."

Vice Hall Master Zhou said, "Hall Master, where there is battle, there are spirits and resentful souls. Soon, we'll be able to collect souls in large quantities again."

"Old Zhou is right."

After speaking, Wang Ba and Vice Hall Master Zhou burst into laughter.

"So arrogant and inexperienced, courting death and showing off their incompetence!"

Ye Qianqian watched She Xiuyue's smug face, even more pretentious than her own, and shook her head helplessly. She said to Xiao Yi Xian and Medusa, "You two, leave quickly. This is a dangerous place, lest you get caught in the crossfire. You are both descendants of my dear friends, and if anything were to happen to you, I would find it impossible to face my friends' spirits in the afterlife!"

Upon hearing this, the two women hesitated, unsure whether to leave or stay, their hearts filled with conflict.

"Ancestor... I..."

Xiao Yi Xian stopped mid-sentence, wavering.

This elder before her was her ancestor's sworn sister! Moreover, she had helped her control the Calamity Poison Body. If she were to leave now, wouldn't that be incredibly heartless?

This was what Xiao Yi Xian was thinking.

Medusa felt the same. She was immensely grateful to Ye Qianqian for saving her just now, but she didn't have the same sense of obligation as Xiao Yi Xian.

As the queen of the Snake People tribe, she understood that her every word and action represented her people. Therefore, she truly did not want to be involved in the upcoming great battle.

Heavenly Snake Mansion's power was immense, far beyond that of the Snake People tribe. If the Misty Cloud Sect were defeated today, their Snake People tribe would likely suffer collateral damage from Heavenly Snake Mansion.

However, Medusa was also filled with resentment. The humiliation she had just suffered had left a knot in her heart. She wished she could chop She Xiuyue into pieces and feed her to the dogs to vent her anger.

Just then, Ye Qianqian saw through Medusa's inner thoughts and fanned the flames. "Medusa, you are a Nuwa Descendant, so you must leave this place.

Today's battle is of great importance, so do not get involved. When your strength grows greatly in the future, do not forget your mission. The beings of the Dou Qi Continent still need you to protect them. This is my only request of you."

With these words, Medusa's mind was instantly changed, and a noble sentiment surged within her.

Yes, she was a Nuwa Descendant! How could she be afraid? Heavenly Snake Mansion's unprovoked provocation was wrong from the start. As a Nuwa Descendant, she absolutely could not stand idly by.

"Ancestor, I'm not leaving. You and my ancestor are sworn siblings, making you my only close relative in this world. How could I abandon you?" Xiao Yi Xian said firmly.

"Senior, I'm not leaving either. A Nuwa Descendant is never a coward. Furthermore..." Medusa looked coldly at She Xiuyue in the sky and snorted, "This Queen will definitely chop this bitch into minced meat!"

At that moment, the firm declarations of the two women made Ye Qianqian beam with joy.

Regardless of whether these two would stand with her in the future, at least they had established a connection!

"Good," Ye Qianqian said, adopting the demeanor of an elder. "You two truly have the spirit of your ancestors. I see the shadows of your ancestors in you both, and I am greatly pleased.

I believe your ancestors, watching from the heavens, would also be proud of you both!"

"Hahaha, today is the end of your Misty Cloud Sect!" She Xiuyue laughed loudly, looking down with disdain.

These were the strongest forces of Heavenly Snake Mansion, and the reason why Heavenly Snake Mansion had never been challenged by other powers for so long.

What Misty Cloud Empire, what Misty Cloud Ancestor, were nothing in the face of Heavenly Snake Mansion.

"Laughing at your sister? Laughing with a stinky mouth that pollutes everything. Did you brush your teeth this morning?"

Ye Qianqian said, "Bringing such a small group, and you're already getting carried away? Who gave you the courage?"

"Such a small group? Humph," She Xiuyue snorted. "You speak such bold words. I will let you taste today what it means to be irresistibly crushed."

"Then I shall await your performance," Ye Qianqian said, turning to look at Yun Shan and the others. They nodded in understanding, each took out a bamboo flute, and began to play softly.

The sound of the bamboo flutes, propelled by Dou Qi, flowed melodiously, traveling thousands of miles without stopping.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, multiple groups of people have appeared outside Misty Cloud Mountain, all heading towards the Misty Cloud Sect. We seem to be... surrounded," a Heavenly Snake Mansion elder hastily flew towards She Xiuyue.

"What?" She Xiuyue's pupils contracted, a trace of unease rising in her heart.

"Misty Cloud Sect Elders, form the Cloud Smoke Covering Sun Array!"

At the same time, Yun Yun led the Misty Cloud Sect elders to arrive. With a sharp command, all the Misty Cloud Sect elders immediately formed their positions, each forming seals with their hands.

The scorching sun was covered by a massive cloud, and the world gradually darkened. Tens of thousands of cloud swords danced within the layers of dark clouds, waiting for Yun Yun's command to unleash a barrage of ten thousand swords, piercing countless holes in the powerful opponents before them.

As this array appeared, the Heavenly Snake Mansion powerhouses were instantly terrified, retreating dozens of steps before stopping.

"Gather Ten Thousand Poisons Underworld Emperor Array, bring out the battle beasts for me!" Xie Shan shouted simultaneously. The former disciples of the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate each unleashed Heavenly Poison and Earth Fiend, with corrosive energy spreading boundlessly.

A demonic scorpion, dozens of feet large, spewed poisonous smoke and mist, uprooting mountains and toppling trees as it advanced. Its two pincers clacked ominously. This was the Six-Rank battle beast of the former Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, the Four-winged Sky Demon Scorpion.

The Heavenly Snake Mansion powerhouses retreated dozens more steps, fearing they would be corroded by the pervasive poisonous gas.

"Summon the Golden Goose for me!" Yan Luotian roared.

The disciples of the former Golden Goose Sect drew the goose-feather long sabers from their waists. Their cold glints were sharp, and their momentum was like a rainbow. Over a hundred fourth-tier golden geese flew from the sky, honking loudly. Many people jumped onto the backs of the geese, sharpening their blades, waiting to dive and reap heads.

The experts of the Heavenly Snake Mansion retreated once more.

"Disciples, heed my command! Form the Myriad Beasts Array!" the Mu Lan Three Elders called out to the former Mu Lan Valley disciples. In groups of three, they unleashed the Three Beast Savage Art. Above each person's head, a ferocious beast head condensed from Dou Qi roared, glaring forward.

"The Jia Ma Imperial Family has arrived..."

At this moment, a legion advanced, kicking up billowing dust. Jia Xingtian of the Jia Ma Imperial Family, along with the First Princess Jia Ma Yaoye, led the imperial family's disciples who had rushed to the scene. Behind them, a dark sea flood dragon beast twisted its long body, roaring ferociously as it charged.

"Fourfold Sea Wave Array, deploy!"

"Crack, crack, crack..."

Jia Ma Yaoye waved her long sword, ordering her subordinates to form four horizontal ranks.

The front rank of soldiers raised golden greatshields, forming an impenetrable wall.

The second rank of soldiers held their silver long spears, resting them on the shoulders of the shield bearers in front.

The third rank of soldiers held Qi-breaking crossbows, aiming them at a slight 45-degree angle upwards.

The fourth rank of soldiers hastily assembled catapults, working in an orderly fashion. Many fist-sized ironstone balls were placed onto the iron scoops, ready to rain down on the Heavenly Snake Mansion like a scattering of flowers.

"No retreat! No retreat! Those who retreat will be executed!" An elder of the Heavenly Snake Mansion, enraged, shouted at his disciples who were falling back. However, his words failed to rouse them from their terror.

"A few of us will also join the fun." Nan Gong Yu, the Chuyun King who was still at the Misty Cloud Sect, Mo Youyou, the new Mu Lan King, and Yan Luo Cang, the Yan Luo King, each brought over a dozen Dou Kings and Dou Spirits as guards, standing ready.

"The Nalan family has arrived!"

"The Mite'er family has arrived!"

"The Mu family has arrived!"

Nalan Jie of the Nalan family, Mitter Teng Shan and Hai Bo Dong of the Mite'er family, and Mu Chen, the patriarch of the Mu family, arrived with their family disciples and personal guards.

"The Alchemist Guild has arrived!"

Ma Fa and Pill King Gu He of the Alchemist Guild led over a hundred alchemists and their attendants to join the fray.

"How can such a battle proceed without us?" Yan Shi, Feng Li, and others, among the ten great experts of Jia Ma, laughed heartily as they arrived, each leading their disciples.

Yan Luotian, Yun Shan, Xie Biyan, Saber, the Mu Lan Three Elders, Xiao Yi Xian, Medusa, and many other Dou Ancestor experts flew into the sky, their faces grim.

With a single beacon, the lords gathered.

Ten directions sent reinforcements; none could contend.

A vast army of powerful experts marched onto Misty Cloud Mountain, standing in opposition to the Heavenly Snake Mansion's forces.

"How can this be?" She Xiuyue was dumbfounded. She truly hadn't expected the Misty Cloud Sect to possess such strength.

Ye Qianqian looked at the astonished She Xiuyue and suddenly unleashed her Conqueror's Haki. It resonated through the ages, shaking the heavens and earth, causing the Heavenly Snake Mansion's experts to tremble. Those with lower cultivation on the ground were all knocked unconscious by the Haki, collapsing like mountains toppling and jade pillars falling, a large group falling in an instant. Their morale plummeted.

"You wish to destroy my Misty Cloud Sect? Do you think you can do it with just yourselves?"

"Ding"
