Chapter 720: Thunder Devours the Body, Divine Soul Annihilated

Wei Zhaixing loudly sounded the alarm, the bell clangs echoing through the heavens.

Everyone from Yunshan was startled, turning their heads to see a dazzling escape light coming with great momentum, trailing a glowing flame a hundred feet long.

The Qiming Spirit Monarch has arrived!

But the expected Nascent Soul from Cangzhou did not come to aid; now they can only rely on their own strength.

Although their hearts were tense, they were already prepared, and at present, they had to temporarily withdraw their attention from Lu Qian, return to their positions, and prepare to face the enemy.

“Halt, senior!” Wu Yan had already risen into the sky, standing within the Mountain Protection Grand Array and shouting out, elusive yet palpable, the Golden Core Spiritual Pressure spreading around her, accompanied by a timid Jade Flood Dragon behind her, “This is the mountain gate of the Yunshan Sect. Our Sect Leader is undergoing the Celestial Tribulation; please do not enter and interrupt, and I ask for your understanding.”

The blinding white escape light converged, revealing a cultivator.

He was small in stature, only half the height of an ordinary person, with short limbs, short hair, a face full of horizontal flesh, and a vicious appearance.

This was the Qiming Spirit Monarch of Lanshan Island.

Qiming Spirit Monarch slightly sensed, his Divine Sense sweeping over the peaks, snorted coldly, and released his Nascent Soul Spiritual Pressure recklessly. The fierce aura hit them in the face, and everyone from Yunshan couldn’t help but hold their breath slightly.

“What Yunshan Sect, never heard of it.”

“The person I want is called Gu Nihshang; she’s hiding in this mountain. Step aside quickly, I need to go in and search.”

Wu Yan shook her head, “My Sect Leader Master is currently undergoing the Celestial Tribulation. No one is allowed to enter. If the senior insists on entering our mountain gate, please wait a moment until my Sect Leader Master has completed the Celestial Tribulation, then we can discuss what to do.”

She wanted to buy time, whether it was waiting for Lu Qian to prove his Golden Core, or the Nascent Soul from this state coming to aid, the situation would be much better than now.

But Qiming Spirit Monarch ignored her, his figure moving as if to rush inside, “This matter has nothing to do with you all, I only want to capture Gu Nihshang. Quickly step aside and don’t seek self-destruction!”

Wu Yan’s face darkened, “Senior, this is Cangzhou territory, not Ningzhou. You’re forcing your way in as if ignoring the diplomatic relations between the two states, seeking to provoke trouble! Our Nascent Soul Spirit Monarchs from Cangzhou are on their way. You should leave quickly.”

Qiming Spirit Monarch was indifferent, “The people from Star Origin Palace have already helped me send a notice. You ought to give us some face. Besides, what’s Cangzhou or Ningzhou, it’s none of my concern; I only want Gu Nihshang! Quickly move aside, or don’t blame me for taking action!”

In an instant, a piercing, urgent sword chant was heard!

Wang Yu led seventeen Foundation Establishment cultivators flying into the air, clad in white robes, with the ethereal form of an Immortal, layered Spiritual Power being transferred up and frantically pouring into his hands. That Dragon-Slaying Sword was clear and sharp, extending outward over a hundred feet long, the Sword Qi soaring to the sky, unstoppable.

Immortal Dragon Slayer Painting, at its strongest state!

On the other side, atop the peak of Minglong Mountain, points of starlight began to twinkle, in a moment transforming into bands of light, the brilliance forming a river of stars.

Jiang Qingfeng stood before the Vast Sea Star Grand Array composed of three hundred Inner Sect Disciples, clad in Ice Armor, with Dragon Horns atop his head, his icy crystal long hair dropping blooming frost flowers, silver pupils shimmering coldly.

The atmosphere was tense, yet Qiming Spirit Monarch laughed heartily, “Golden Core in front of me is no more than a clay chicken or toy dog, unable to harm me the slightest. Moreover, what so-called power of union? It’s mere show, utterly weak!”

No sooner had he spoken than a flash of white light appeared, and Qiming Spirit Monarch had already charged straight through the Mountain Protection Grand Array!

In an instant, the Spirit Vein trembled, the Five Elements rotated, the Void-Breaking Spiritual Mist spread out, and torrents surged and thunderous tides sounded, directly targeting Qiming Spirit Monarch; it was the Fourfold Transformation of Three Thousand Weak Waters and Thunder Sea Fury.

Yet the Void-Breaking Spiritual Mist could only shield the Golden Core Divine Sense, unable to obstruct the Nascent Soul Spirit Monarch. Qiming Spirit Monarch immediately locked onto the direction, rushing towards Minglong Mountain, while raising his hand and casting out two Magical Treasures.

A silver ball the size of a fist emitted a sharp whistling, not solid but nested layer upon layer. A total of nine spheres nested together, each sphere distributed with eighty-one holes engraved with mysterious runes.

Magical Treasure: Venus Unity Ball!

The Venus Unity Ball shone brilliantly, the nine layers of spheres rotating and vibrating, eighty-one holes spraying silver mist, instantly crashing into the Weak Water torrent. A rumbling explosion was heard, silver light flickering, and the entire Weak Water torrent continually exploded, shattering into countless splashes.

The other Magical Treasure was already spread by his arms, held in his hands; they were two sturdy rods, thirteen segments long from head to tail.

Lifebound Treasure: Mountain-Breaking Whip!

Facing dozens of the mighty Gui Water Thunder Tide, Qiming Spirit Monarch rotated his body, his arms pounding down, the double whips carrying tremendous power, heavily striking the Gui Water Divine Thunder condensing into waves.

Beneath the giant wave, his small figure was like an ant, yet a booming thunder rang out, the wave instantly crumbling, thunder light scattering chaotically through the sky!

Effortlessly, he wanted to penetrate the Mountain Protection Grand Array and enter Minglong Mountain directly. The Nascent Soul Power caused Wang Yu, Jiang Qingfeng, and others below to feel grave.

At this moment, the drawbacks of the Five Elements Grand Array were exposed again; without a Pass Token, even Wang Yu and others would be attacked by the array upon entry. The Immortal Dragon Slayer Painting and Vast Sea Star Grand Array were group combat powers; how could there be so many tokens? Therefore, they could only temporarily stay above the peak, waiting for the right opportunity.

In fact, earlier, Gu Nihshang and Dong Chengjun had already informed everyone from Yunshan of the strength Qiming Spirit Monarch displayed, but now seeing him easily break through the array’s attacks, everyone had a clearer understanding of the Nascent Soul Power.
