Chapter 108 – Attacks
Just as Yang Junshan was thinking about how the Martial Realm Cultivator had resisted the Adept Realm Cultivator while Yin Mo Chen was still in the inheritance array, outside the cave, Zhang Yueming and ten other people were already blocked by the Tan Xi Sect on the slope.
Zhang Yueming stood at the very front leading the Heaven-Shaken Sect disciples and the people from the Tan Xi Sect in a confrontation. Two young Tan Xi Sect cultivators laid at his feet, and the Tan Xi Sect also had the corpse of a young Heaven-Shaken Sect cultivator, while the other two were injured. If Zhang Yueming had not saved the two with his own strength, they might have been captured by the Tan Xi Sect, and it would have been even more troublesome at that time.
“Does your Tan Xi Sect want to instigate a war between the two sects?” Zhang Yueming asked the young cultivators leading the Tan Xi Sect’s side sternly.
Senior Brother Zheng took the lead and laughed dryly towards the sky, then said: “Haha, you seem to think too highly of yourself, just for the little lives of us, and for the cause of war between the two sects, do you think you’re the leader of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, or do you think I’m the leader of the Tan Xi Sect?”
Although the Senior Brother Zheng’s sneer was a matter, to others, it made them unable to laugh.
Zhang Yueming coldly snorted, “Even if the two sects won’t cause a great war for us, can it be that your Tan Xi Sect can endure the anger of my Heaven-Shaken Sect?”
“The Heaven-Shaken Sect is indeed the number one sect in the cultivation world of our Yuzhou,” the square-faced teenager walked out from the crowd of the Tan Xi Sect and said confidently. “However, what happened today is a contest between us juniors. We are not going to place ourselves in a deathtrap …”
“Shixiong Fang, Shixiong Fang ….”
When the people of Tan Xi Sect heard the square-faced teenager say that, they all protested with great dissatisfaction. Although the Tan Xi Sect still had an overwhelming advantage in overall strength, they did not get any advantage in the previous three exchanges. This caused all the young cultivators of Tan Xi Sect to become extremely angry.
Senior brother Fang raised his hand, signalling for everyone to be patient, and continued: “Now that I see the situation, my fellow daoist friend from Heaven-Shaken Sect also knows, that although we have not promised to kill anyone, as long as you surrender to us and return with us to Tan Xi County, we will treat you well. When Senior Heaven-Shaken Sect arrives in the future, we will definitely send everyone back alive, what about that?”
Hearing this, the girl with big eyes behind Shixiong Fang burst out in laughter and said, “Senior Fang, you’re right. As long as you surrender to us, we, with our sect’s reputation, promise not to harm you. This way, we won’t need any more dead people on both sides, we’ll kill two birds with one stone!”
For a sect like the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the reputation of the sect was as big as the sky. If these young cultivators did not release a spell and were captured, even if all of them were considered geniuses, in Heaven-Shaken Sect’s eyes, it would be better to have all of them die than accompany the sect’s reputation and surrender to the Tan Xi Sect. But if they were not redeemed, then who knows how many people’s hearts they would have in the sect in the future.
The Senior Brother Zheng and the youth surnamed Zhu quickly understood the reason behind this. They agreed and shouted for the cultivators of the Heaven-Shaken Sect to ambush them and ensure that they would not be harmed.
“We would rather die here, disciples of the Heaven-Shaken Sect do not surrender!”
He never thought that the first person to stand out and berate the rest of the Tan Xi Sect would be a girl like Xu Jing.
Zhang Yueming slowly said in a deep voice, “What you have said are simply wishful thinking. Don’t forget, in the three exchanges before, you didn’t take any advantage of any of us. Even if you had twice the number of us, what use would there be if you had more wine and rice bags?”
Zhang Yueming’s words caused the Heaven-Shaken Sect disciples to be shocked. Previously, Zhang Yueming had beaten back Tan Xi Sect cultivators several times, and his strength far surpassed cultivators of the same cultivation level, had established absolute authority amongst the disciples of the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
“Fellow Daoists of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, please think carefully. The reason why you guys took advantage of us the last three times is because we also thought of a trick, and wanted to use a sneak attack to reduce our own casualties, but today, we know that there ialented cultivator with the Blue Ear Immortal Root among you who is unable to use a sneak attack. Thus, we can only fight fair and square, and dare ask Fellow Zhang Yueming, how much do you think our side has a chance of winning?”
Zhang Yueming slowly pulled out a bronze runic sword from his waist, pointing it at the people of Tan Xi Sect aesponse.
In the middle of the cave, Yang Junshan, who was still somewhat unresigned, still chose to place his palm onto the stone platform, drumming all the spirit energy in his body into his palm.
The amount of spirit energy accumulated in Yang Junshan’s body was countless times more than cultivators of the same cultivation level, which was why he was unwilling to give iry.
In fact, he was just short of hope, and was just about to succeed. The surging spirit energy was continuously injected into the palm, and when the spirit energy in Yang Junshan’s body was about to dry up, the palm finally stopped absorbing the spirit energy he had poured in, indicating that the spirit energy inside was already saturated.
sighed with regret. Although he was not a Martial Realm Cultivator, the amount of Spirit Qi he had was enough, but it was still lacking in terms of quality. The only difference between Spirit Qi and Spirit Yuan was whether or not his Dantian had been opened, and this was the only difference between Mortal Realm and Mortal Realm.
However, this was also because the large formation protecting the cave was still undamaged. If someone were to usechnique to forcefully break through the array outside, then the power of the protection array would definitely protect the cave’s entrance with all its might, causing the resistance to be greatly reduced. Perhaps, Yang Junshan would have the chance to open the shortcut to the cave.
After figuring out the reason, Yang Junshan naturally set his sights on Zhang Yueming and the rest, but from the looks of it, their situation was not so good, and he did not know if he should secretly help out when the time comes.
Yang Junshan came to the side of the quagmire that fell down earlier, and fiercely ran two steps before leaping. Just as he was about to collide with the wall, Yang Junshan stretched out his five fingers and inserted them into the wall, then placed his entire body on top of it. Using both hands and feet, Yang Junshan was like a giant gecko, and after a while, he climbed to the exit.
Just as Yang Junshan jumped out from behind the huge rock, he heard tragic cries for battle coming from the slope in front of the huge rock.
Yang Junshan was shocked, the blade at his waist had already been pulled out, but he discovered that there were no enemies around him, and so he relaxed a little, slowly turning around to look at the huge boulder. He saw that the two groups of people had already entered inteated battle, and on the ground laid eight or nine young cultivators of unknown status.
“These people are really quick, but it seems like Zhang Yueming and the rest are in a bad situation!”
The number of casualties in Tan Xi Sect was actually even higher than the number of Heaven-Shaken Sect’s disciples. Originally, there were thirty of them, but currently, there were only nineteen.
However, Yang Junshan could tell that the real reason why the Tan Xi Sect was not able to attack for a long time, was because of Zhang Yueming’s bravery. Out of the eleven people who had died or been injured in the battle, six or seven of them had died under his hands.
Although Zhang Yueming was strong, the great battle just now had saved the other disciples as if it was fire, and had caused him to consume a lot of spirit energy. Now, he had also been surrounded by the combined efforts of Senior Brother Fang, Senior Brother Zhu, and Senior Brother Zheng, so if he was not surrounded, the other disciples in Heaven-Shaken Sect would very quickly be suppressed.
Zhang Yueming was also extremely clear about the situation he was facing, he had exerted his own strength to the limit, and had been trying to get rid of the three strongest people from the Tan Xi Sect s who were working together to attack him, while the remaining few Heaven-Shaken Sect disciples on the other side, under Xu Jing’s lead, wanted to support Zhang Yueming. However, in the end, they were blocked by the other Tan Xi Sect cultivators led by the big-eyed woman.
Right at this moment, Zhang Yueming suddenly erupted, his left hand shot out a finger technique to block the attack, he suddenly pushed out his right hand, a symbol appeared on his palm, a gold light shot out, and then formed into two, flying towards Zhu and Zheng. This technique was obviously Zhang Yueming’s life technique.
“To launch two simultaneously, isn’t that something only Martial Realm Cultivator can do?”
Senior Brother Zhu let out a strange cry, and retreated. It was obvious that he had suffered under Zhang Yueming’s innate spell before, and did not dare to take it head on. The other two people were also blocked by his technique temporarily.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Yueming released a gust of wind under his feet and suddenly rushed forward, his palm striking a Tan Xi Sect cultivator who was blocking his path, causing him to spray out a mouthful of blood. His chest cavity sunk three inches deep, as he was about to reunite with Xu Jing and the others who were rushing over to support him.
“Senior Brother Zhang, I’m here to help you!”
A Heaven-Shaken Sect disciple suddenly rushed in front of Xu Jing to support Zhang Yueming, but when he reached near, he suddenly took ouundred refined dagger and stabbed towards Zhang Yueming’s chest.
“No! Li Chengfeng, what are you doing!” Everything happened so suddenly, that Xu Jing only had time to let out a scream.
Zhang Yueming had just forced back three experts of the same cultivation level, and killed another Tan Xi Sect cultivator with his palm. Although it looked brave and brave, in reality, he was already at the end of his tether, and had used up most of the spirit energy in his body.
Seeing the genius cultivator of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, whose future “Heaven Shaking Three Geniuses” were about to die under his own ambushes, suddenly, a thunderous explosion sounded from afar, and a cold light flashed. With a “Ah —” scream, the dagger in the hands of the Heaven-Shaken Sect disciple who had ambushed Zhang Yueming was thrown to the ground, his entire body hugging onto his arm as he fell to the ground, a long iron arrow pierced through his wrist.
“Daring to plot against Senior-apprentice Brother Zhang, you’re courting death!”
With a loud shout, Xue Ziqi suddenly jumped out and kicked the back of the attacker’s head.
“No!” Xu Jing’s shout was another step too late. “Pa!” The head of the person who had launched the sneak attack had been kicked intulp by Xue Ziqi.
