Sword Sha Shows Its Might

White Moon Market is located at the northernmost edge of Jian Country. Beyond that lies the Snow Country, which is the territory of another major sect in the Eastern Wasteland, Blowing Snow Palace.

After Chen Mobai arrived, he successfully completed his inspection mission.

The steward here is named Jin Guozhang. He is a steady-looking cultivator, and all the accounts are in perfect order.

"Town Guardian, this is the Bai family's White Mist Spirit Bud, Second-grade Spirit Tea cultivated from a branch of Snow Needle Immortal Bud. Tea Pill made from this spirit tea are the best elixirs for enhancing a cultivator's Spiritual Sense."

Upon hearing Jin Guozhang's words, Chen Mobai raised the clear, blue tea in his hand, took a small sip, and indeed felt a refreshing coolness rise up, clearing his Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness.

Unfortunately, he was already Foundation Establishment Cultivator, and his Spiritual Sense sense was at a bottleneck. This pot of precious spiritual tea only made him feel a shiver run through his body.

Liu Wenbai and Luo Yixuan, on the other hand, both had rosy complexions and bright eyes after drinking the tea, clearly having benefited greatly from it.

"Nephew Jin, do you know if the Bai family sells their Tea Seed?"

"Reporting to the garrison commander, the Bai family has a shop in this White Moon Market that specializes in selling Tea Seed. First-grade Tea Seed cost 10 Spirit Stone per plant, and second-grade tea seeds cost 200 Spirit Stone Second Grade."

"What if I want to buy a branch of Third Grade Snow Needle Immortal Bud?"

"This would require us to personally request it from the Bai Family Headquarters Snow Peak. However, given their status as the garrison commander, the Bai family would certainly be willing."

No sooner had Jin Guozhang finished speaking than Bai Dingxian, the patriarch of the Bai family, came to pay him a visit.

"Hahaha, I've long heard from Daoist Zeng that the Divine Wood Sect has produced an unparalleled sword genius. Seeing him today, I can confirm that his reputation is well-deserved."

Bai Dingxian was an elderly man with a ruddy complexion. He was only younger than Liang Jinggui, but he had white hair and a youthful face, and his beard was like a god's. He looked radiant and showed no signs of old age.

"Greetings, Chief Bai."

Bai Dingxian had a very good relationship with the Divine Wood Sect Spirit Plant and Alchemy Departments of the Alchemy Sect. In addition to owning the largest Tea Garden in the entire Eastern Wasteland, his Bai family also cultivated hundreds of acres of medicinal fields.

When the Divine Wood Sect Alchemy, they occasionally had to purchase a lot of Herb from the Bai family.

Even the Tea Pill that the Bai family refines each year are partly supplied to the Divine Wood Sect.

Chen Mobai had seen it on the exchange list of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion, but he wasn't interested in the pills from the Sky River Realm, so he didn't know the price.

"It just so happens that a few days ago, the buds of a Snow Needle Tea Tree were picked, and the branches need to be pruned. Please wait a couple of days, and I will have an elder from the clan deliver it."

Bai Dingxian readily agreed to Chen Mobai's request, and even asked him if he wanted any other Tea Seed.

Because the Third Grade Tea Tree branches failed to survive after being planted multiple times in the Giant Wood Ridge area, while ordinary first-tier Tea Seed had a 50% chance of growing.

After listening, Chen Mobai nodded his thanks and then asked Bai Dingxian about the situation in White Moon Market.

At that moment, Bai Dingxian's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he abruptly stood up.

"How dare you! Who is it?!"

With a sharp shout, Bai Dingxian transformed into a Escape Light and rushed out of the Divine Wood Sect's shop.

Chen Mobai didn't react at first, but he immediately felt the Earth Vein Spiritual Energy surging violently, which was the result of the protective Grand Array being activated.

"Oh no! Strongmen are attacking the market!"

At this moment, many Rogue Cultivator outside began to shout, and the White Moon Market began to descend into chaos.

"You two follow Junior Nephew Jin's instructions and guard the sect's Spirit Stone Vault here. If the Grand Array is broken, have the sect disciples scatter and escape with Spirit Stone Magic Artifact, and pills. Remember, safety comes first."

Chen Mobai made a decisive decision. After giving orders to Jin Guozhang and his two disciples present, he did not wait for their reply and immediately rode the Crimson Cloud Mist Silk to fly away with Bai Dingxian.

Just as he was flying over the market, he saw three beams of light flying from the east, each wielding a pitch-black Talisman, slamming them hard into the protective Grand Array of White Moon Market.

At the same time, two Foundation Establishment spiritual lights rose up in the market, and having gained the upper hand, they destroyed two key nodes of the magic array.

With flashes of spiritual light, the protective Grand Array's light barrier flickered continuously, seemingly on the verge of breaking through at any moment.

With a buzzing sound.

Bai Dingxian burst out from a shattered shop in the market. He angrily manipulated the Formation Disk, throwing in an extremely precious High-grade Spirit Stone to activate the power of the protective Grand Array and block the five invaders.

"Damn it, the Spirit Vein's trajectory has been altered. Not only has the magic array's power weakened, but even the Teleportation Array has been severed and is no longer functional."

Bai Dingxian knew that only Chen Mobai, the number one Sword Cultivator of the Divine Wood Sect, could save White Moon Market. So, while activating the protective Grand Array, he also explained the current situation in the simplest way possible.

"Before the foreign enemy even invaded, chaos had already broken out inside."

Chen Mobai, suspended in mid-air, watched as some Rogue Cultivator, relying on their high cultivation levels, began attacking the cultivators setting up stalls in the White Moon Market, brazenly robbing various pills Talisman. He couldn't help but sigh.

The evil of human nature is particularly evident at this time and in this place.

He even saw that after robbing some street stalls, many Rogue Cultivator set their sights on major shops, led by the Bai family of the Divine Wood Sect, and began to attack them in groups.

It seems they're planning to rob a large sum of money and then run.

Among them, the Shenmu Spirit Stone's Divine Wood Sect Spirit Stone Shop, which stores most of the spirit stones in White Moon Market, is already surrounded by various independent Rogue Cultivator.

Chen Mobai saw that his two disciples had already joined Jin Guozhang in guarding the entrance of the Spirit Stone Shop. All twenty disciples of the Divine Wood Sect in White Moon Market were here, each taking out their Magic Artifact to confront the hundreds of rogue Rogue Cultivator who were swarming in.

Boom! At that very moment, the earth veins were altered, and the magic array that could no longer connect with the Earth Vein Spiritual Energy finally succumbed to the constant bombardment from the five Foundation Establishment Cultivator, cracking open with a huge gash.

The three Foundation Establishment Cultivator outside the magic array immediately filed in. One of them roared fiercely, creating numerous ghostly shadows. Like a phantom, he split into dozens of clones and swept directly towards Chen Mobai.

Meanwhile, the remaining Foundation Establishment Cultivator, while surrounding Chen Mobai, also unleashed spells at the key points where the market's Spirit Vein nodes were located, preparing to more thoroughly destroy the protective array.

This scene thoroughly ignited the greed in the hearts of the Rogue Cultivator. At the shout of one of them, quite a few daring cultivators had already climbed over into the backyard of the Spirit Stone Shop.

A streak of cyan Sword Light flashed like a swimming fish, blood splattered everywhere, and three heads flew off.

It was Luo Yixuan, wielding the Divine Wood Sword. Her pretty face was cold, her eyes like frost. As the Third True Disciple, she was basically capable of slaughtering these Rogue Cultivator of rogue cultivators.

On the other side, Liu Wenbai was also riding his flying sword, guarding the entrance of the Spirit Stone Shop, leading his sect disciples to stop dozens of Qi Cultivation Cultivator.

"Senior Brother, it's time to retreat."

As the Divine Wood Sword past, Luo Yixuan severed the heads of two Rogue Cultivator who had attacked Liu Wenbai from behind. After sweeping around, she saw that more and more cultivators were rushing towards her and decided to give up.

"Stay a little longer. With Master here, everything will be alright."

Liu Wenbai used the Azure Scale Armguard to protect himself and Luo Yixuan, while holding a Spirit Stone in his hand to replenish the energy consumed by wielding the Second Tier Magic Tool.

"Alright, but if our spiritual energy is depleted by more than 50%, we should follow Master's orders and save our lives first."

Liu Wenbai wouldn't leave, Luo Yixuan had no choice but to muster her spiritual power to hold out for a while longer. Although she had a lot of confidence in her master, she estimated that he wouldn't have the strength to spare to deal with five Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

In this situation, it's best to stick to the previous plan and leave first.

Just then, a dazzling blue light shone like the sun in the sky.

With a hissing sound, all the cultivators in the market couldn't help but look up.

A burst of shimmering blue lightning erupted from the palm of a slender figure, instantly transforming into five dazzling Flowing Light, like thunderbolts. These beams pierced and tore through the overwhelming ghostly shadows, while also blocking the spells unleashed by the other four Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

With a scream and a burnt smell, the head of the Foundation Establishment Cultivator who lunged at Chen Mobai was shattered by the Yi Wood Divine Thunder. The ghostly figures disappeared, leaving only a corpse that fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the street in the center of the market.

After piercing through a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, the azure lightning pillar continued its momentum, crashing heavily to the ground and sweeping around the perimeter of the Divine Wood Sect's Spirit Stone Shop.

Accompanied by screams and blood mist, seven or eight out of ten cultivators who were rushing towards the Spirit Stone Vault from White Moon Market were instantly vaporized by this Yi Wood Divine Thunder Technique.

Since the disciples of the Divine Wood Sect were all guarding inside the Spirit Stone Vault, they were not affected by this powerful Thunder Method.

But he witnessed firsthand how the dozen or so Rogue Cultivator who had charged at him with ferocious expressions were reduced to ashes after a thick pillar of lightning struck and swept across the ground.

This terrifying and awe-inspiring power finally made these inexperienced Rogue Cultivator realize just how terrifying Foundation Establishment Cultivator truly were.

Even those who have reached the peak of Qi Cultivation Perfection have no power to resist Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"Run!"

"How could I have been so blinded by greed as to try and rob the Divine Wood Sect's shop!"

"Damn it, now we have no choice but to escape to the Cultivation World of the Snow Country!"

After Chen Mobai's attack with the Yi Wood Divine Thunder Technique, the Rogue Cultivator who had lost their minds and wanted to seize the Spirit Stone Vault all came to their senses completely.

Liu Wenbai and the others, who were still struggling to hold on, were so shocked to see the three Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer who had escaped the lightning strike turn around in a panic that they forgot to give chase.

Luo Yixuan, however, had a cold glint in her beautiful eyes. With her snow-white right hand controlling the flowing water, she opened her mouth and spat out three Ice Spell arrows, which pierced the heart of the enemy who was at the back.

"Junior sister, don't pursue a desperate enemy. It's more important for us to hold this place."

Liu Wenbai thought Luo Yixuan was going to chase after him, but the latter shook her head and looked at the sky with a worried expression.

Chen Mobai was surrounded by Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

At this moment, everyone knew that this ambush was aimed at the number one Sword Cultivator of the Divine Wood Sect.

"Your pretense is useless before my eyes."

All the Foundation Establishment Cultivator who came to White Moon Market were dressed in black robes and black masks, with Restriction on their masks to block Spiritual Sense, clearly not wanting to reveal their identities.

But Chen Mobai's Void Glimpse Spiritual Eye swept over the mask, and he could see the true face beneath it clearly.

"Yuan Hongyuan!"

"Hong Xu!"

"The Tang Siblings!"

"The only guy whose origins are unknown has already been killed by me."

Chen Mobai pointed to the four people surrounding him and called out their names accurately. The four people looked at each other in surprise, and then all of them took off their masks, their eyes cold.

"Form a battle formation and kill him."

The Nether Envoy turned into charred remains, and Yuan Hongyuan became the person with the highest cultivation level. He shouted and took out a huge array flag from his storage bag.

Hong Xu and the Tang Siblings also took out the same black array flags. With the four of them working together, black clouds filled the sky, as if continuous dark clouds were falling, encompassing half of the sky above White Moon Market.

"Town Guardian, I'll go to the Divine Wood Sect to call for reinforcements for you!"

Seeing that Yuan Hongyuan and his three companions didn't take him seriously at all, Bai Dingxian was both surprised and delighted. He then shouted at Chen Mobai, who was shrouded in dark clouds and could only be seen as a vague Shadows. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he released the magic array, piloted a Flying Shuttle, and rushed out of White Moon Market without looking back.

"A coward who clings to life and fears death."

Seeing Bai Dingxian's fleeing figure, Yuan Hongyuan said disdainfully, and then within the Yellow Springs Ten Thousand Ghost Formation, he deployed his Five Smoke Cloud Net Formation.

After the two Array Formation were deployed, Yuan Hongyuan confidently unleashed his powerful late-stage Foundation Establishment strength.

"Kill him, then seize the resources within the market, and evacuate as quickly as possible."

After Bai Dingxian escapes, he will soon inform the Divine Wood Sect of this matter. However, there will be some time before the Divine Wood Sect someone over, which will be enough for them to complete their plan.

"Without the Nether Envoy, we get a bigger share."

Hong Xu said greedily, then waved the black array flag in his hand, continuously pouring his spiritual power into the Ten Thousand Ghost Formation. In the blink of an eye, the black clouds became so thick that they could not be seen clearly, and vague shadowy ghost phantoms were generated in the clouds, devouring Chen Mobai in the center.

At that very moment, a golden sun rose from the center of the Ten Thousand Ghost Formation.

With the Six Yang Divine Fire Mirror above Chen Mobai's head, bursts of Pure Yang Fire erupted, burning all the surrounding ghostly shadows and black clouds into Void.

He opened the lid of the Yellow Gourd at his waist, slightly puzzled.

Then, to the disbelief of Yuan Hongyuan and the other three, who were preparing to pour their spiritual power into the second transformation of the Ten Thousand Ghost Formation, a bright orange-red light shone forth.

The Orange Red Radiance stretched for thousands of meters in an instant, circled around Chen Mobai, and just barely passed by Yuan Hongyuan and the other three.

Amidst the dripping blood, the protective Artifact Spirit of the four people didn't even have time to activate. In a chaotic blur of light, they felt excruciating pain in their lower backs, and then their bodies were separated.

"I don't quite understand, how dare you come to kill me?"

Chen Mobai, looking puzzled, withdrew the Primordial Yang Sword Sha and closed the lid of the Yellow Gourd.
