Chapter 626 - 246: Calculations of Karma
Feeling an extremely fierce killing intent coming from the void, the Great Brightness World Honored One understood that the True Monarch on the other end of the causal line had made a move!
He immediately used a secret technique to sever the connection between this phantom and his true body, then hurriedly left Yangnao Land!
"World Honored One?"
Beside him, Monk Hui Yuan was still unaware of what had happened, only suddenly realizing that the World Honored One’s presence had vanished.
He called out in confusion, but received no response.
Just as Monk Hui Yuan was bewildered, the void in front of him suddenly rippled with waves like water.
Under Monk Hui Yuan’s astonished gaze, a silver fish line abruptly shot out from the rippled void.
After the appearance of the silver fish line, it attacked with a speed invisible to the naked eye!
In a flash, all anomalies in the secret chamber disappeared completely in the time of a single breath.
Monk Hui Yuan looked down in disbelief, wanting to see his body, only to find his arms had already turned into neatly cut chunks of flesh.
Immediately after, his entire body disintegrated, and everything in the secret chamber seemed to have been expertly diced by a chef, all turning into uniformly sized pieces scattered on the ground.
A cultivator as powerful as the Half-Step Golden Core Realm Monk Hui Yuan was thusly slain in an instant, without even a chance to resist.
...
In the valley, Xu Xiu slowly put away the Ink Bamboo Fishing Pole, murmuring deeply, "He ran quite fast, but I am in no rush; we will settle our accounts slowly."
...
On the battlefield of Zhili County, the cultivator army led by Xu Zhan defeated the main resistance of Jianan Temple and advanced triumphantly, soon arriving outside the Imperial City Zen Temple.
Meanwhile, Shen Wenxing, in collaboration with the Snow Wolf King, had the monks led by Monk Hui Kong trapped in Red Leaf City.
"Elder Patriarch, this city has held out for a long time; should we request reinforcements from Lord Xu and the Patriarch?"
Outside Red Leaf City, Commander Mu Yan approached Shen Wenxing, looking at the city covered by the grand array, and asked respectfully.
Beside him, the Snow Wolf King also spoke up opportunistically.
"That bald donkey who ambushed Young Master Chonghong is in this Red Leaf City. If we can break through and slay him, we can avenge Young Master Chonghong."
Shen Wenxing kept a solemn face and did not speak.
He had long considered the matter of requesting reinforcements.
But their cultivator army had encountered such tenacious resistance from Jianan Temple upon arrival, and he feared the situation would not be much different for Xu Zhan and Shen Chongming.
He worried that requesting reinforcements might disrupt their offensive.
However, considering that one of the Shen Family’s high-profile goals was to kill Monk Hui Kong and avenge Shen Chonghong,
and now that Monk Hui Kong was guarding Red Leaf City, it indeed made sense to have Xu Zhan come to assist.
As long as they broke through Red Leaf City and killed Monk Hui Kong, the Shen Family’s objectives would be achieved.
"Commander Mu Yan."
Having made his decision, he turned to look at Mu Yan.
Mu Yan bowed slightly, "Elder Patriarch."
Shen Wenxing said, "Go to Celestial Aromatic Mountain and see how Xu Zhan’s battle is going."
"If all goes well, have him bring people to support us."
Mu Yan bowed again, then transformed into a streak of light and flew southward.
When he arrived at Celestial Aromatic Mountain, seeing the nearly shattered mountain range, a hint of worry flashed across Mu Yan’s face.
"The battle here seems even fiercer than at Red Leaf City."
"However..."
His gaze swept around, noticing numerous corpses of Jianan Temple monks on the ground, he guessed that the Body Cultivators led by Xu Zhan must have won the battle at Celestial Aromatic Mountain.
So they are now...
Mu Yan looked towards the Zhili Imperial City and flew out in a streak of light.
When he reached outside the Zhili Imperial City, he indeed saw Xu Zhan and many body cultivators under the rule of the Shen Family.
These body cultivators were bathed in blood, exuding a dense aura of Blood Evil, with their Qi and blood surging like rainbows.
"Commander Mu, what brings you here?"
A significant number of the Shen Family’s body cultivators were from the Western Wilderness Barbarian Race.
Therefore, upon seeing Mu Yan, these body cultivator warriors appeared particularly friendly.
"Where is Lord Xu?"
Mu Yan inquired, and a sturdy body cultivator immediately stepped forward to guide him, "Lord Xu is this way, please follow me, Commander Mu."
On the hill, Xu Zhan stood with a spear, quietly gazing at the Zen Temple in the Imperial City a hundred miles away, contemplating whether to lead his men in an assault.
"Lord Xu, Commander Mu is here."
A voice sounded from behind, prompting Xu Zhan to suppress his thoughts and slowly turn around.
"Commander Mu."
He bowed slightly in greeting.
Mu Yan was an elder in the Shen Family, and although his strength was not quite on par with Xu Zhan, Xu still greeted him first.
"Lord Xu."
Mu Yan returned the gesture and said, "I followed the Elder Patriarch to attack Red Leaf City, and found that the monk Hui Kong was the one defending the city."
Hearing this, a gleam flickered in Xu Zhan’s eyes.
"To be honest, Commander Mu, if you had come a little later, I was about to lead my men into the Zhili Imperial City to see if that monk Hui Kong was hiding inside."
"Since it has been confirmed that Hui Kong is indeed in Red Leaf City, let us hurry there."
"As for this Imperial City, let Jianan Temple hold it a bit longer. Once we’ve dealt with that monk Hui Kong, we can see how my master and senior brother choose to act."
Mu Yan nodded.
"What Lord Xu says is very reasonable."
"Then let’s go."
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhan waved, and immediately led many body cultivator warriors towards the direction of Red Leaf City.
Three days later, when Xu Zhan and his men arrived at Red Leaf City, the monks of Jianan Temple within the city were all turning pale.
They truly could not understand how the Shen Family could have gathered such a large army of cultivators.
