The Azure Wind Wolf King Appears, Master of Nine Rivers
The sky above Jade Dragon Valley was exceptionally clear at this moment.
The sky was cloudless, and a gentle breeze was blowing.
On both sides of the mountain peak are some first- and second-tier Spirit Herb Gardens, and in the spiritual lake in the valley, a lot of Azure Moon Fish are raised.
This spirit fish is a top-grade first-tier spirit fish, which is of great help to Foundation Establishment cultivators.
This is why the Taiyi Sect eliminated all the Red-Node Fish.
Several Taiyi Sect disciples were still feeding the spirit rice.
These Azure Moon Fish may only be a foot long, but they eat only Green Wheat Spirit Rice, which they consume every three days, with each feeding weighing at least 100 jin (50 kg).
Even this amount of spirit rice is beyond Foundation Establishment Lineage can provide.
Just then, all the Azure Moon Fish seemed to be startled and immediately darted towards the bottom of the lake.
"Are these Azure Moon Fish full?" The newly arrived Taiyi Sect disciple was still full of doubt.
"Quickly! Xianzhong, go and report to Tianzhen!"
"The Beast Tide has begun!" The more experienced cultivator exclaimed in alarm as he saw the lake surface begin to ripple.
"The Azure Moon Fish is extremely sensitive to movement; it can even sense a large Beast Tide from hundreds of miles away!"
With that, the two of them rushed towards the main hall deep in the valley.
But then they saw that some cultivators had already flown out from above.
"Beast Tide! Form ranks!"
With a loud roar, the bells in the valley rang out!
Clearly, the sect's higher-ups had already discovered the Beast Tide!
After all, over the years, Red Glow Ridge King Ridge, and Earth Dragon Valley Lion King Ridge Valley have frequently attacked Taihang Commandery from the direction of Jade Dragon Valley, so the higher-ups of the Taiyi Sect are naturally extremely vigilant.
Along with it rose a great array overflowing with spiritual light, and even countless lakes of water surged upwards toward the sky like waterfalls rising in reverse, transforming into water dragons that fell in front of the Master Tianzhen.
Before long, a number of Three-Eyed Demon Roc, as well as Fire-Swallowing Sparrows and Fire Cloud Birds, appeared in the distance.
The Three-Eyed Demon King was also among the Three-Eye Clan.
Its feathers were even redder, and its vertical eye shone even brighter!
"Chirp!"
With a series of long cries, countless Fire Cloud Bird and Fire-Swallowing Sparrow began to breathe fire as they charged forward.
They had been harmed by the Taiyi Sect in Jade Dragon Valley in their early years.
Naturally, they wouldn't rush into the valley in one go and be surrounded and killed by the Taiyi Sect!
As the rolling flames surged in, Jade Dragon Valley was like a giant cauldron, roasted by the Fire-Swallowing Sparrow and Fire Cloud Bird -Three-Eyed Demon Roc!
Fortunately, this is Water Attribute Array, which is why it can hold out.
Inside the valley, there were also True Person who ascended into the air.
It was none other than the previously Miaofa True Person.
He held a whisk in his hand, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, and activated his Divine Ability:
"Three-Eye, this isn't the Beast Tide yet!"
"This time it's not me who wants to fight, it's the Green Wind Demon King. You Human Race should take responsibility for what you've done!" The Three-Eyed Demon King snorted coldly twice, a rare occurrence for him!
That mockery instantly changed Miaofa True Person's expression.
He knew that what they had been fearing had happened: the Green River Sect had triggered Beast Tide!
They must have gone to the Green Wind Wolf Plains!
"Damn it!" Miaofa True Person wished he could kill every single mortal in the Yuan Family!
It was the Yuan Family who brought in a traitor from the Green River Sect!
You should know that the Green Wind Demon King is even more tyrannical than the Silver Moon Demon King!
Miaofa True Person's expression changed at this moment, and he even had the urge to escape.
He was already helpless against the Three-Eyed Demon King, but if another Green Wind Demon King came, even with the support of Fourth Stage high-level mountain-protecting formation, he definitely wouldn't be able to hold out for long!
He took out Spirit Talisman and spread it out into the distance.
He only hoped that there were other True Person of the Taiyi Sect nearby.
Otherwise, even if his message reached back to the Taichang Mountain Range, it would be too late for the True Person there to arrive.
After the Spirit Talisman was transmitted, at the end of Red Glow Ridge, one after another, huge, sturdy blue Wind Wolves, as strong as oxen, surged over.
These Wind Wolves are as large as lions, with incredibly menacing fangs, and thick blue fur around their heads.
These hairs and the rhythmic movement of the wind made its body even more agile, and its running speed was as fast as the wind.
They quickly headed this way.
"If it doesn't work, we'll have to retreat!" Miaofa True Person said telepathically, looking at Master Tianzhen.
With two Demon Kings and countless powerful demons, Jade Dragon Valley simply cannot defend itself!
Rather than all dying here, it's better for the higher-level cultivators to escape first.
After all, both the Three-Eyed Clan and the Green Wind Wolf Clan are extremely fast, so the Taiyi Sect can accept the death of some low-level disciples.
"Uncle Miaofa, Master seems to be... He's already on his way!" Just then, Master Tianzhen transmitted his voice to Miaofa True Person.
This scene stunned Miaofa True Person for a moment. After all, he remembered that Tianfu True Person often said that his lifespan was not long and he even refused all the missions to guard the sect. He should not be in Taihang Commandery at all.
But then came ecstasy.
Regardless of who it is, with two True Person backing up the Array, they can at least hold off the Taiyi Sect's reinforcements, if not completely defend them!
"The sect must have learned of the Yuan Family remnants' scheme last time and sent reinforcements!"
Miaofa True Person thought the same thing, and then his eyebrows furrowed, and a surge of heroic spirit arose within him!
"Everyone, hold the line for a moment! The sect's army and the other True Person will provide immediate support. Also, send orders to all Lineage in Taihang Commandery, instructing them to rush to our aid. Anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy!" Miaofa True Person gave the order instantly.
Upon hearing that reinforcements had arrived, the other Taiyi Sect cultivators and the cultivators of various races who were originally stationed in Jade Dragon Valley also settled down.
One by one, they took out their Spirit Talisman Law Artifacts, and began to attack the Fire-Swallowing Sparrow in the distance.
The Fire Cloud Birds are relatively robust, and their flames are less powerful. Only the Fire-Swallowing Sparrows, at least mid-second tier and many are early-third tier demons, Array and are the most troublesome.
"Aww!"
"Awooo!" The Green Wind Wolf arrived incredibly fast from afar!
Besides the flames filling the sky, countless sharp wind blades were also fiercely sweeping towards the Array!
However, this Array is the Taiyi Sect's protective mountain formation, reaching the Fourth Stage high-grade level, and has previously annihilated countless powerful demons.
With the full support of the Spirit Veins, it was able to barely withstand the attack.
Of course, the most terrifying sight was the enormous wolf king charging towards them from afar.
This wolf king was like a mobile fortress, moving so fast that only a faint blue light could detect it.
"Aww!"
With a long howl.
Suddenly, a massive storm tornado crashed into Jade Dragon Valley, creating a terrifying earth-shaking sound, as if Jade Dragon Valley was about to collapse.
The Array was also starting to crumble!
Miaofa True Person had to take out several array flags and throw out countless Spirit Stones to condense an even stronger spiritual shield before he could barely block it.
But at this moment, his face was deathly pale. Both the Three-Eyed Clan and the Azure Wind Clan Demon Kings were late -Fourth Stage- tier Demon Kings. Although he had broken through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, he still couldn't hold out for long.
Not to mention, there are more than a dozen great demons from both races attacking from the sky and the ground. Even if Jade Dragon Valley has more Spirit Stones in reserve, once the Array is broken, everyone will die!
At that very moment, a flash of light appeared in the distance.
A colossal golden Spirit Boat hurtled through the sky!
Tianfu True Person landed at the bow of the boat, dressed in a purple robe, his eyes glaring angrily!
He seemed extremely angry!
"Three-Eye, Green Wind, you've crossed the line!" Tianfu True Person roared angrily!
"Old Daoist Tianfu, you Human Race have gone too far! Even if you hand over my Green Wind Wolf Clan's cub today, I will still slaughter you!" Azure Wind Wolf King roared.
Tianfu True Person used Secret Method, his voice resounding throughout the valley. But the Azure Wind Wolf King only roared casually, yet the entire mountain valley shook violently. Countless trees were swept up by the hurricane and fell into the Azure Wind Wolf King's tornado.
The enormous tornado grew larger and larger, carrying more and more debris, soil, and gravel, causing increasing damage to the Array!
While the battle raged fiercely in Jade Dragon Valley, in a cave a hundred miles away...
Ye Jingcheng landed deep inside the cave, holding a Bronze Ancient Lamp in his hand.
The ancient lamp quietly went out, leaving behind a trail of bluish light.
With his other hand, the Beast-Link Mark continuously draws Spirit Beast Spiritual Qi from the spirit beasts to nourish itself. While the Spirit Beasts can restore their Spiritual Qi with their Treasure Radiance, he cannot; this is the only way he can restore his Spiritual Qi!
Ye Jingcheng was also puzzled and somewhat frightened at this moment.
He only killed one Azure Hidden Deer; was it really necessary to kill the wolf demons of Green Wind Wolf Plains?
Ye Jingcheng, riding the Golden Falcon, thought that only a few Three-Eyed Demon Rocs would come after him, since it was the territory of the Three-Eyed Demon King.
Unexpectedly, the Green Wind Wolf clan relentlessly pursued them, and he even spotted the Azure Wind Wolf King, a late- Fourth Stage wolf.
Although his Spirit Beast pouch contained the Turtle Ancestor, and within the Turtle Ancestor's Grotto-Heaven resided the Earth Dragon Demon King.
But if the Earth Dragon Demon King were to appear and come to its rescue, the Ye Family's foundation in the Taihang Mountain Range would definitely be exposed.
Moreover, the Earth Dragon Valley is probably not tolerated by the Demon Race of the Taihang Mountain Range.
That was definitely not good news for the Ye Family!
Ye Jingcheng could still hear terrifying explosions and earth-shaking noises coming from afar.
At this moment, all he could do was pray that Jade Dragon Valley could hold out. If it couldn't, the Ye Family would probably suffer some losses as well.
After all, the only one colluding with the Ye Family was the Earth Dragon Valley, owned by the Earth Dragon Demon King.
The Three-Eyed Demon King and Lion King Ridge don't respect the Ye Family.
With his True Essence restored to some extent, Ye Jingcheng prepared to put away the Bronze Ancient Lamp, cross the mountain ridge, and return to the Ye Family from the Ethereal Mountain Range.
He estimated that if something happened in Jade Dragon Valley, the Taiyi Sect would definitely show signs soon. If he went back now to break through to the Purple Mansion, at least he could prevent the Ye Family from becoming cannon fodder immediately.
That Tianfu True Person couldn't wait any longer and might actually use this opportunity to cause a large number of deaths among the Ye Family members, thereby forcing him to emerge from seclusion.
The reason why major sects tolerate the existence of Lineage is that these cultivation Lineage cannot abandon their Lineage foundations, unlike Rogue Cultivators who can be disappeared without a trace once they escape.
Ye Jingcheng left the cave, used the Blood Soul Pearl to enhance his aura, and tried to minimize it. He then activated his Lineage's Great Turtle Aura-Hiding Art. After finishing, he released the Four-Colored Cloud Deer and sent it to roam the mountains.
Ye Jingcheng's Four-Colored Cloud Deer rarely showed itself, and running around in the mountains wouldn't cause any new trouble. Right now, he certainly didn't want any new trouble.
After all, he had already obtained the Azure Hidden Deer and the Thunder Attribute Demon Core.
He has even stirred up the Beast Tide in Jade Dragon Valley.
And indeed, no problems arose as they continued their journey.
After traveling another five or six hundred miles, Ye Jingcheng breathed a sigh of relief, but just as he passed through a narrow valley entrance...
Suddenly, the Four-Colored Cloud Deer began to moan softly.
"Master, there are people in the valley!" The Four-Colored Cloud Deer turned its head and asked Ye Jingcheng.
Ye Jingcheng also released his Divine Sense at this moment.
Having run this far, he was already extremely far from Jade Dragon Valley. Even the Three-Eyed Demon King and the Green Wind Demon King couldn't possibly detect him with their Divine Sense.
Moreover, he discovered that the cultivators in the valley before him seemed to have also rushed here, just like him.
"How dare you!" What enraged Ye Jingcheng even more was that the person in the distance had begun to release several array flags, which flew towards Ye Jingcheng, clearly trying to stop Ye Jingcheng.
"The methods of your Taiyi Sect are indeed impressive; you actually managed to track us all the way here!"
"However, this is the end!" A weathered voice drifted over, sounding both ethereal and mysterious.
Ye Jingcheng, riding on the Four-Colored Cloud Deer, spread his cloud wings and was about to take flight to dodge the attack.
But as soon as the voice fell, a transparent bowl appeared in the void and covered Ye Jingcheng.
It seemed the surrounding Array were a feint; the real encirclement came from the bowl in the sky.
Upon seeing this, Ye Jingcheng quickly put away the Four-Colored Cloud Deer, and a beam of blood-red light spread out from his hand, which was the release of the Blood Realm from the Three-Origin Blood Escape Secret Method.
His speed increased dramatically, and he passed directly through the attack of the spirit bowl.
"Nine Rivers Master!" Ye Jingcheng looked at the cultivator in the distance wearing a green robe from the Jiuhe lineage.
A name also came to mind.
This Nine Rivers Master is a Rogue Cultivator, but not from the three prefectures of the Taiyi Sect. Rather, he is Rogue Cultivator the four prefectures of the Green River Sect. He has long been famous for his ability to conceal his Cultivation Method, causing headaches for countless sects.
I never expected to find myself here today.
Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng narrowed his eyes. He guessed that the Beast Tide of the Azure Wind Wolf King was probably not caused by him. Killing a third-tier great demon that was insignificant would not have made the latter so furious.
The most likely candidate, then, is actually the rogue Rogue Cultivator from the Purple Mansion within the Green River Sect's territory, Nine Rivers Master.
"Haha, I didn't expect anyone to still remember my name!" Nine Rivers Master smiled slightly, but still appeared calm and composed, as if he wasn't worried about Ye Jingcheng running away at all.
He flicked his sleeve, and the Array from before took shape again. Just like the transparent spirit bowl, it was impossible to defend against, and one never knew when it would happen.
Ye Jingcheng, seeing that he was inside the Array, decided not to hide anymore.
He simply waved his sleeve, and instantly all the Spirit Beasts surged forth.
Ye Jingcheng released the four-tailed Crimson Flame Fox blazing with three-colored Spirit Flames, the Crystal Jade-Scale Flood Dragon surging with white light, and the Golden-Scaled Beast Golden Falcon and Four-Colored Cloud Deer.
"Who are you? I've never heard of you before!" Upon seeing this, Nine Rivers Master was immediately taken aback.
The reason he acted so recklessly was because he thought Ye Jingcheng was only at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm, and an unknown one at that.
Otherwise, he would definitely recognize him.
But now, with four mid-stage tier-three Spirit Beasts, one early-stage tier-three Spirit Beast, and a Jade-Scale Flood Dragon among them, even he dares not let his guard down!
"Roar!" The Golden-Scaled Beast was the first to roar, baring its fangs and letting out a fierce howl.
Countless rumbling sounds echoed from the ground, and countless Golden Light Earth Spikes exploded underground.
Clearly, this Nine Rivers Master had already planned a sneak attack while he was speaking, starting from underground!
