Zhang Yan kept most of the insects and dispersed his mana. His eyes scanned the depths of the demon cave before he turned into a sword and charged down.
The cultivators from the demon sect were stunned when they saw that he didn't wait for the people from the Mystic Sect to arrive before he charged towards them.
There was a fourteen or fifteen year old handsome young man on the seat. He was the eldest disciple of the Yuan Shen Sect, Jin Xuanyuan. He sneered, "This Zhenren Zhang is too arrogant. He really doesn't care about us. Let's make sure that he doesn't return today."
Chao Yue was still calm, "He probably has something to rely on.
Ji Huan Chen muttered, "You're right, it's best to be careful. We've already made so many arrangements, so we can't ruin them. Brother Chao, go and refine that demonic insect again. We'll go and stop him."
He looked at the crowd and said, "Zhang Yan is number one in the 18 sects. He can't be defeated by one person. To be safe, let's go and fight him together."
Le Rongniang said, "This person is not ordinary. Even Brother Baili can't defeat him. He must have a lot of killer moves. There's no need to fight him to the death. We just need to delay him and wait for Chao Yue to refine the Vermillion Candle Insect again."
Everyone present nodded in agreement.
After the agreement, the four of them flew up from their seats and went straight to the sky.
Zhang Yan didn't go far when he saw four rays of light flying towards him. Each of them was rich in spiritual vigor and didn't lose to the strong cultivators he met earlier. He guessed that they were the few third stage cultivators from the demon sect.
If there were only one or two of them, he would be able to defeat them in a head-on battle.
But if the four of them worked together and used their magic treasures and skills, it wouldn't be easy to resist. The best result would be a battle of attrition.
He had the Sword Escape Technique and the Five Elements Escape Technique. If it was another situation, he could think of a way to break them apart. But the situation now was urgent and he couldn't be so calm. The only way was to use his divine power to suppress them.
He shouted and the mana in his body surged. Yellow smoke rolled above his head. Suddenly, a big hand was formed. The five fingers stretched for more than ten miles and pressed down.
Le Rongniang turned into a wisp of yellow smoke and rushed to the front. She faced the wind pressure above. Her lips parted slightly. With a light blow, a gust of wind blew, and a cloud of howling smoke was spat out. Although it wasn't fast, it was getting wider and wider.
When the Mysterious Yellow Hand was brushed by the smoke, it was like water passing through a sand barricade, constantly collapsing and collapsing under its erosion.
Zhang Yan raised his brows. He recognized that this was the Netherworld Spring Sect's Nine Nether Great Sorrow Wind. Compared to Feng Haiyang that day, this woman's cultivation was clearly more profound. She should have already reached the third stage of perfection.
However, this attack was only to slightly hinder his opponent. The real attack was yet to come.
When he came here, he saw clearly that this place was not deep into the devil's lair and was still connected to the sky, which was the best place to use the thunder technique. With a shake of his body, a purple aura shot into the sky. In an instant, clouds filled the air and thunder rumbled.
"Purple Cloud Godly Thunder!"
The four people from the Devil Sect were immediately on guard. They stopped in their tracks and released their magic treasures to protect themselves.
They knew how powerful this technique was. Among the top ten disciples of Qincang School, only Zhang Yan knew this technique. Once it was used, anywhere within the range of the technique, unless the person in charge withdrew their magic power or attacked with a powerful magic treasure, they could only passively endure the attack. However, they were confident that they could handle it. Even though they all had precious treasures, they were not willing to use them easily.
In a flash, the lightning fell. Because of its ability to destroy evil, after a few strikes, the spiritual light of their protective treasures dimmed.
However, none of their expressions changed. Every single one of them had a rather high status in their sects, and they never lacked magical treasures or spiritual objects. This time, they had prepared for this battle for a long time. If one was broken, they would just take out another. Even if Zhang Yan's magic power was inexhaustible, if he continued to use it like this, the longer the battle dragged on, the more advantageous it would be for them.
Chao Yue looked up and said to the disciple beside him, "Go ask Martial Uncle Liao if the people I asked for are ready."
The disciple bowed and left after receiving the order.
After a while, Daoren Liao rushed over and said, "Martial Nephew, I have brought them here."
This time around, he went one round. There were a total of four elders who were willing to give up their bodies. Apart from that, there were 30 Core Transformation disciples.
If not for the fact that time was tight, he would have been able to find more people.
It was just that these disciples were confused and uneasy. Some of their eyes were filled with unwillingness. Some of them even looked at Chao Yue with hatred.
These disciples were different from the few elders. Even if they couldn't enter the Yuanying Realm, they still had a long lifespan to enjoy. But now, they were being asked to feed bugs with their bodies. How could they be willing to do so? It was just that they were forced by the power of the sect and had no choice.
Chao Yue took in all the expressions of these disciples. He just smiled and didn't care at all.
Even if these people weren't from the Jiuling Sect, they were just at the Core Transformation Realm and had no background. Before the grand plan of the Spirit Sect, their life and death were not up to them.
He took a few steps forward and apologized to the three Yuanying elders, "Fellow Daoists, Chao Yue has been rude."
One of the elders said, "Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be polite. Although you are here to guard the Spirit Cave, at the end of the day, it is still our Hun Cheng Sect that benefits. As the elders of the sect, we owe you a favor. Let's do it quickly so that we don't delay the battle."
Chao Yue said yes. He circulated his spiritual power and grabbed towards the sky. Instantly, several Vermillion Candle Bugs were grabbed by him and sent out, "Fellow Daoists, please swallow them."
The three elders grabbed it without hesitation and threw it into their mouths. Then, their bodies swayed, and their souls escaped from their bodies in time.
Chao Yue solemnly bowed to them and thanked them.
The three souls returned the bow and flew out hurriedly, preparing to be reincarnated.
After a while, there was a rustling sound. Countless larvae the size of rice grains surged out from the bodies left behind by the three people. They buzzed in the sky and absorbed the spiritual vigor. In less than ten breaths, they turned into adult insects.
After a few rounds in the sky, they saw the dozens of Core Formation disciples rushing forward. With just a sweep, they were completely drowned without a trace. Their number increased by nearly ten thousand.
Seeing this, Chao Yue calmed down a little. He tucked his sleeves and hid the swarm of insects. At this moment, he paused and looked to the east. There were six rays of light flying over from the sky.
He laughed and said, "You came at the right time."
He turned to Liao Daoren and said, "Daoist Master, Fellow Daoist Yang is not here. Why don't you call your two fellow Daoists to come with us to face the enemy."
Liao Daoren said, "Okay!" He immediately threw out a talisman. Not long after, two rays of light soared into the sky from afar.
Seeing this, the two of them also rode the astral wind and soared up.
Zhang Yan sensed that there was another enemy coming and immediately looked over. This time, he looked down. His eyes flickered slightly.
Based on the previous situation, the person who wanted to use the demonic cave to form the cave was Yang Poyu from Huncheng Sect.
And now, any side that had one more third stage realm cultivator would have an advantage. But this person still did not appear. Then there was a high possibility that he was already in the depths of the demonic cave. To wait for the heavenly secret to arrive.
Based on his original plan, if this person was here, he would find him and kill him. Since he wasn't here, then he had to find him first.
He said loudly to the six people who rushed over, "I'll leave this place to you guys."
Dou Hongping and the rest had already been taken care of previously and knew what he was going to do. They said, "Daoist just go ahead."
Zhang Yan immediately waved his sword light and turned around, suddenly escaping into the depths of the spirit cave. With his full strength, he just flashed and disappeared from the scene.
Ji Huanchen saw him flying away and said in horror, "Oh no, the spirit cave is about to form, this person is probably going to cut off Fellow Daoist Yang's path."
Jin Xuanyuan sneered, "Isn't that courting death?"
There was only a narrow tunnel leading downwards. In order to prevent people from breaking in, talismans and spells had been set up and there was also a treasure suppressing it. It wasn't something that could be passed through in one go.
In addition, there were dozens of Yuanying cultivators guarding behind. If they saw someone coming, they would just have to attack with their treasures and no one would be able to escape. Not to mention that the possibility of passing through it was very small, they only needed to cut off his path of retreat and there would be no chance of escape.
Chao Yue, however, felt that something was wrong.
He thought that Zhang Yan couldn't be judged by common sense. Even if the chance wasn't high, there was no guarantee that he would succeed. He decided to get rid of this entanglement as soon as possible and go back to deal with this person. Thus, he waved his sleeves and released a large number of Zhu Zhu Demons.
When Dou Hongping saw this, he silently took out a gourd and sucked it in. Instantly, a boundless suction force was generated, sucking in all of it. Then, he immediately patted the stopper.
In reality, this magic treasure could only hold the Demonic Insect for a hundred breaths of time. Just Now, because he couldn't see any hope of winning, he was reluctant to take it out. But this time, it was a matter of victory or defeat, so he didn't care about it anymore.
Chao Yue sneered. He shook his sleeve and released a swarm of demonic insects.
At this time, Huang Songquan shouted loudly, and the cloud behind him made a sound, releasing a red-eyed roc. It spread its wings, and in an instant, a gust of wind was set off, and the insects were swept dozens of miles away.
Chao Yue slightly furrowed his brows, then relaxed. This kind of action would at most delay for a moment, but it would not be able to change the situation.
However, at this moment, several figures from the Flying Palace descended from the sky.
He raised his head to take a look, and his eyes narrowed.
Not a single one of them was from the Star Pivot Flying Palace, but the nine Towering Cloud Towers!
Although the Vermillion Candle Insects could bite through the Flying Palace, they couldn't move this thing at all.
His face instantly darkened. If these six people relied on this Cloud Tower to force their way in, they would definitely have to use True Artifacts. Just Now, they could break it.
Wei Zihong stood on one of the Cloud Towers and said to Tian Kun beside him, "Senior Brother, although the Towering Cloud Tower can't be used by others after it is refined by one person, it might not be impossible. If Master gathers the nine outside to Master, we can force our way in."
Tian Kun said in a muffled voice, "We can't do it."
Wei Zihong sighed, "Who said it wasn't?"
He was just thinking about it. Even if there was a way to do it, the other ten disciples would agree, and the Protector Elders would definitely stop them.
These disciples all had the possibility of becoming Grotto-Heaven in the future, and if they died because of this, they couldn't escape the blame, so they definitely wouldn't let them put themselves in danger. Even at this moment, they weren't really going to charge in, but were following Zhang Yan's orders to create as much of an attack as possible, delaying the people from the Devil Sect here so that it would be convenient for them to do things.
