Chapter 327
327 Lu Qing will accompany you to watch the meteor shower
Bai Nantian wanted to escape but he could not.
Under the purple mud monster’s huge hand, he could only barely activate the immortal sword to resist. His entire body was held in the other party’s palm, and his surroundings instantly turned purple-black. With the heavy pressure on his body, he wanted to strengthen his flying sword to cut a path, but he was unable to do so. He had already done his best to withstand the pain and not be crushed.
However, it was also at this moment that thick rain clouds began to gather in the sky above the battlefield they were on. Light rain fell from the clouds.
Zou ziwu’s figure, which was hidden in one of the attics, couldn’t help but raise his head and look at the sky.
This rain was very strange.
Ordinary rain? How could that be possible! This was a direct battle between two nascent soul cultivators. The spiritual energy in the entire area was already under their control. Unless there was a particularly extreme climate change, it was impossible for this kind of light rain to fall. Even the cumulonimbus clouds would be blown away in advance because of the fierce battle between the two.
The person who had intervened had arrived.
When the rain started to fall, zou ziwu could feel the special properties of the water.
This mist didn’t seem to be water. Although it fell like rain, it was more like some kind of energy with a very high degree of purity. Its nature was more like wood attribute true essence, but it also had some other characteristics, just that it appeared like a drop of water.
This Strange Rain had affected the entire battle situation as soon as it started to fall.
Zou ziwu could clearly feel that this rain of pure wood essence was weakening his strength.
There was nothing special about the spirit root of this Prime Minister of Great Yan. He was a cultivator with earth and water spiritual roots. In terms of spiritual root talent, there was nothing special about it. Although double spiritual roots were relatively rare in the cultivation world and were considered geniuses in the ordinary sense, they were nothing special when placed among the ranks of high-level cultivators.
However, the cultivation technique he cultivated was extremely special.
The ‘rotten mud divine technique’ was a very special transcendent-grade cultivation technique. Not only was it limited to earth-water double spiritual roots, but it was also very difficult and dangerous to cultivate. He needed to turn water into earth and turn it into rotting poison to refine his essence and Qi. This was a very big risk. If one was not careful, it was very likely that they would play with themselves to death in the process of cultivation. It would be especially dangerous when breaking through.
With such a high price, if he succeeded, the final effect would be very good.
The Silent Invasion of poison and the highly malleable purple mud monster were just the surface. The only thing that could defeat Bai Nantian was the entire battlefield that he had constructed.
With the combination of various methods, it was destined that Bai Nantian would not be able to break through his defense. This was especially so when Bai Nantian was filled with unwillingness and lingered too long on the battlefield that he had set for him to end up in such a state where he could not even escape.
However, the pure rain that fell from the sky had a completely different nature from the battlefield that zou ziwu had created. The moment this pure energy landed, it began to purify the poison field that zou ziwu had painstakingly built.
He could clearly feel that his control over his surroundings was rapidly declining. The poison that had seeped into every inch of the spiritual Qi around him due to his control was quickly dispelled. Even the purple mud monster that he had used a large amount of energy to build and was taller than the city wall was being washed by the rain of pure energy. Its entire skin was dissolving and being purified.
Zou ziwu wasn’t the only one who was affected.
Bai Nantian, who was being held in the purple mud monster’s hand, initially felt that he was in an extremely disadvantageous position. However, after the rain, he could clearly feel that the feeling of being corroded by the illness in his body was rapidly relieved. At the same time, he also felt that the pressure exerted on him by the giant monster had reduced a lot in a short time.
In the meantime, Bai Nantian finally had a chance to escape.
The cloud-stepping celestial sword dispersed all of its clones and brought Bai Nantian along with it. It pierced through the purple mud monster’s palm and escaped.
Looking at the outside world, the purple mud monster that he had previously forced into a dangerous situation, its entire outer skin was already like a melting snowman, turning into a mess. The light rain that was poured on its body seemed to be the real poison, making it unable to withstand it at all.
On the other hand, Bai Nantian who had just escaped from the trap felt that the rain that was falling on him was so refreshing. In fact, it even brought a warm feeling to him and it was very comfortable. As for the previous pain in his body, it was also weakened with this comfortable feeling. The corrosive energy that invaded his body was purified.
Bai Nantian raised his head as well and looked at the clouds that were raining. Vaguely, he seemed to see a Divine Dragon appearing from time to time in the clouds.
Of course, it was impossible for the divine Dragon to rain.
When Bai Nantian and zou ziwu saw the Dragon’s body, they both thought of Lu Qing, who was in the Feiyun state in the North.
Bai Nantian had to be more certain. On his way to the capital of Yan, he had already received a message from sect master han xuzi, saying that the cultivator Army of the Feiyun state was also on their way. Lu Qing had already entered the nascent Soul Stage and he was asked to wait for the Lu clan’s Army to arrive. Then, he would join forces with Lu Qing and attack the capital of Yan.
However, Bai Nantian had rejected him.
It was normal for Bai Nantian to make such a choice. For one, he was very confident in himself and felt that he could solve this problem alone. In Yan city, the people of the Imperial court were all a bunch of trash. Except for the Emperor of Yan, li Shiwen, whose cultivation was much higher than his, he felt that he could not deal with him. He did not care about anyone else.
What’s more, the only person who could pose a threat to him, li Shiwen, was still in the process of breaking through. He couldn’t come out and attack him, so what was there to be afraid of?
However, he didn’t expect zou ziwu to have this kind of ability.
Bai Nantian could not help but admit that he had underestimated the heroes of the world.
Bai Nantian felt that he would still be able to win if they were to encounter each other outside. Zou ziwu couldn’t set up the battlefield in advance, and he couldn’t use the array on the level 6 spiritual vein to strengthen his power. Naturally, he couldn’t create so many purple mud monsters. Even if he couldn’t complete the beheading strategy and find zou ziwu’s main body to kill him in one fell swoop, his true essence reserves were not lacking.
However, there were no ifs. A defeat was a defeat, and there was no point in saying more excuses.
Fortunately, Lu Qing’s reinforcements had arrived in time. Otherwise, he might have really been defeated today.
Zou ziwu, who was opposite him, was even more shocked and annoyed.
Staring at the dragons that would reveal their bellies from time to time, zou ziwu’s face was gloomy.
Originally, he had already secured victory. But at this moment, he felt a deep sense of fear.
There was no doubt that the ability Lu Qing displayed was something that could only be possessed by nascent soul cultivators. According to the information from the Imperial court, they did not know when Lu Qing had broken through to the nascent soul realm.
So be it if Lu Qing was a nascent soul cultivator. Most importantly, the ability that Lu Qing displayed seemed to be able to directly restrain him. The pure rain of the wood attribute had ruined his plan of killing Bai Nantian by himself. At the same time, the rain had also purified the battlefield that he had spent a long time setting up, which had a great effect on his strength.
Zou ziwu pondered for a long time, but he couldn’t come up with any countermeasures.
While he was thinking, the giant dragon in the sky became clearer and clearer. A huge dragon’s head peeked out from the clouds and looked at the ground with a pair of dragon eyes that carried a sense of scrutiny.
And on top of this huge dragon head stood a man whose eyes were as bright as the stars.
Who else could it be but Lu Qing?
After negotiating the cooperation with Yunxiao sect’s sect master, han xuzi, Lu Qing would occasionally teleport to Lu mingheng’s side in his consciousness form to see how the main battlefield was. Sometimes, he would teleport to Yan city to check on the progress of li Shiwen’s breakthrough. Or perhaps, he could return to his family’s fleet and check where it was.
When Bai Nantian and zou ziwu were fighting, the Lu family’s fleet was already not far from Yan city and would arrive in a few days. However, Lu Qing’s consciousness form was on the battlefield. He had been watching the two of them fight.
To be honest, he really did not wish for Bai Nantian to win.
If this fellow were to defeat the entire Yan Kingdom, it would be equivalent to Yunxiao sect solving their own problem. What would Lu Qing do then?
Of course, the possibility of this happening was extremely low.
Lu Qing could sense that zou ziwu was a nascent soul state level three cultivator. His cultivation level alone was higher than Bai Nantian’s.
Not only that, but the key point was that he had long been connected to the spirit vein formation of Yan city and could get the support of the formation. With the replenishment of spirit Qi, he could fight in Yan city with almost unlimited true essence. As long as Bai Nantian could not kill him in one go, he would have to face the endless purple mud monsters and the endless plague. It was only a matter of time before he could not hold on.
Therefore, Lu Qing began to wait patiently for an opportunity.
It was only when he saw that Bai Nantian was really about to die that he finally made his move.
After teleporting back to Yuyan mountain, his consciousness returned to his physical body. He activated the exchange for resurrection and used the teleportation function to teleport to the scene with Lu Wenen, who was in Yan city, as an anchor point.
Lu Wenen was shocked when he saw the old ancestor suddenly appear beside him.
He had also sensed the battle between the nascent soul cultivators at the entrance of the inner city. In addition to his admiration and longing, the huge amount of spiritual Qi fluctuations that exceeded his imagination made him shiver in fear.
However, the ancestor didn’t seem to care about anything. After he appeared, he only smiled and nodded to him. Then, he soared into the sky and headed towards the battlefield of the two nascent soul cultivators.
After Lu Qing arrived, he summoned his Dragon Soul. It flew into the sky and summoned a rain of purification.
This was the battle strategy he had thought of long ago.
If he wanted to fight zou ziwu, it was not impossible to fight him head-on. However, the easiest way was to destroy the battlefield that he had painstakingly designed. He would change the environment from an advantage for the other party to an advantage for himself.
There weren’t many ways to use the spirit vein formation. After all, it was the foundation and reserves of the other party over the years. However, the spirit Qi surrounding the disease could be removed by the pure power summoned by the ‘Book of Fate’.
And now, it was not a complete victory.
Although Bai Nantian had been rescued, there were still a large number of purple mud monsters around, especially the gigantic one. These monsters were in a sorry state after being hit by the purifying rain. They were on the verge of melting. However, the spiritual Qi of the level 6 spirit Meridian formation continued to replenish the bodies of these purple mud monsters under zou ziwu’s control. It maintained their existence and prevented them from being completely melted by Lu Qing’s purifying rain.
Although this would definitely cause zou ziwu’s consumption of true energy to be several times more intense than when he was fighting against Bai Nantian, he could still hold on with the support of the level 6 spirit vein formation.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, we need to work together.” Bai Nantian’s voice was heard.
Lu Qing laughed softly. sure. I will force him out. It will be up to you if you can seize the opportunity.
With a comrade by his side, it would be a waste not to use it.
Furthermore, Lu Qing knew that other than deliberately misleading zou ziwu, who was supposed to lead the Imperial Guards to the front line, to hide in Yan city, li Shiwen had another plan.
It would be better to bring a helper than to barge in alone.
Lu Qing had many more tricks up his sleeve to deal with zou ziwu than Bai Nantian.
He was not a cloud-treading sword immortal who only relied on one sword. Lu Qing’s large-scale killing spell technique was much more ferocious than Bai Nantian’s!
With a single thought, the Dragon Soul beneath him opened its mouth excitedly and spurted out intense Starfire. In an instant, the fire of the Starwood engulfed the entire Street.
Under the burning of the fire, the purple mud monsters had almost no ability to resist. Star power could break through the defense of spiritual Qi, sword Qi could strengthen the destructive power, and the most important thing was the wood-attribute vital essence contained in the ‘Book of Fate’, which could purify the bodies of these purple mud monsters.
It was much more brutal and effective than a simple rain of purification.
Initially, zou ziwu was still commanding the purple mud monsters to attack Lu Qing and Bai Nantian. However, none of the purple mud monsters were able to fly in the area covered by the Dragon Fire. They were all melted the moment they left the ground.
Of course, the Dragon Fire could not cover every place with the purple mud monsters.
However, Lu Qing also had other methods.
He stood on the dragon’s head and put his palms together. The true essence in his body activated the starry sky.
A moment later, a bright meteor streaked across the sky and crashed down, hitting the group of purple mud monsters.
The explosion of the Starwood sword Qi wiped out a large number of monsters.
The Shattered Star power wrapped around the remains of the purple mud monster that had been blown to pieces. It purified the remains and transformed them into pure star power. It then returned to Lu Qing’s body and replenished his power.
At the same time, meteors appeared in the sky one after another.
What a meteor shower.
