Chapter 699: Elder Ma, you’re really charging in!
The dozens of “waterfalls” descended from a thousand zhang high, dispersing in the night wind to form droplets falling towards the Immortal Alliance’s camp, looking no different from ordinary raindrops.
Qi Huang was terrified and immediately sent a mind transmission to her main body: “Quickly tell the senior sisters to get back into the carriage.”
Cheng Hong Ling was never one to procrastinate, and coupled with her absolute trust in her clone, she went to call the senior sisters without hesitation.
Cheng Hong Ling hesitated for a moment, then went to call Jin Xue, Tang Yu Ning, and Ouyang Yi. After more than ten days of getting along, they had become very familiar with each other, and she couldn’t just stand by and watch.
At this moment, the National Preceptor Yang moved his mind, and a tower-like figure appeared beside him.
Qi Huang saw clearly that the guy was being moved out from the storage ring.
So they had hidden their helper in the storage ring, no wonder they dared to come with only four or five people.
Qi Huang suddenly understood.
“Brother Jiang, it’s up to you next. If the cultivators below dare to use spiritual sense defense, organize them immediately.” National Preceptor Yang cupped his fist to the tower-like figure.
“Please don’t hurt my daughter.” Jin Xue’s father quickly reminded them, and the other emperors also spoke one after another.
“How would I know who your daughters are?” The man named Jiang retorted somewhat displeased. He looked to be around fifty years old, and the mask on his face couldn’t hide the rough contours of his features. His build was as sturdy as a wall, exuding immense pressure.
Of course, this person was also wearing clothes specially made from Nine Nether Demonic Cat fur.
“It’s fine, just don’t touch the girls who are wearing casual clothes,” Jin Xue’s father pleaded.
“Hmm!” The man named Jiang then snorted impatiently.
“Who even is this guy? He doesn’t even give face to several emperors?” Qi Huang was very surprised.
“What happened?” Cheng Hong Ling had already brought everyone back to the sedan chair and had a moment to question her clone.
“Jin Xue’s father is here. He’s a thousand zhang high above the camp. These guys are planning to use artificial rain to pour Xieqisan onto the people of the Immortal Alliance. It’s expected to reach the ground soon,” Qi Huang explained concisely.
“Xieqisan? Are they crazy? They don’t even care about their own daughters?” Cheng Hong Ling exclaimed in shock, as Jin Xue and the others were not only princesses but also cultivators.
“They are probably forced. Compared to cultivation, life is obviously more important,” Qi Huang could understand.
“Forget it, I’ll use my spiritual sense to protect everyone first. If it’s just rainwater, staying in the sedan chair isn’t necessarily safe,” Cheng Hong Ling also felt relieved.
“Alright, you must be careful. I think after the artificial rain, they will launch an attack,” Qi Huang warned.
At this moment, dense “raindrops” were already falling from the sky, pitter-pattering onto the Immortal Alliance’s camp.
The people of the Immortal Alliance were setting up tents, unprepared and instantly soaked to the bone. They quickly activated their spiritual sense shields for protection. For cultivators, this was much more convenient than rain or anything else.
“Strange, why is my true qi decreasing?”
“Yes, mine too. I clearly used my spiritual sense, why is my true qi decreasing? This rate of decrease is not right, it’s like my Qi Sea has a hole in it.” Many cultivators quickly noticed something was wrong and looked around in confusion.
Qi Huang frowned, wondering if Jin Xue’s father was going to rebel. If so, what about her bait? A few senior sisters who had been infused with the scent of the Golden Life Flower would definitely not be enough.
“Elder Zheng, my true qi is also decreasing inexplicably, what about yours?” At this moment, Elder Ma below also asked Zheng Chi in surprise.
“Mine too. What exactly is going on?” Zheng Chi’s expression was also extremely solemn. He pondered for a moment and suddenly his face changed drastically as he exclaimed, “This is bad, it’s Xieqisan!”
“What? Xieqisan? But how did we get poisoned?” Elder Ma immediately looked around in a panic, as did the other elders. After all, Xieqisan was the nemesis of cultivators, and once contaminated, it was difficult to remove.
“It’s the rain!” Zheng Chi slowly raised his head to look upwards, his spiritual sense scanning the sky instantly.
“That’s right, it must be the rain. Our Qi started decreasing as soon as we were drenched, what else could it be?” Elder Ma also echoed hindsight.
Next, the several great elders all used their spiritual sense to scan the dark sky above. They saw that at a thousand zhang high, dozens of large water tanks were pouring unknown liquid onto them, making them feel like maggots in an outhouse.
“What is that?” Elder Ma exclaimed in astonishment. Because the relatives of the several bait were wearing specially made clothes, all he could scan were the water tanks.
“Who is causing trouble? Give me your life!” Zheng Chi was already infuriated and shot up into the sky, preparing to destroy the dozens of water tanks.
Seeing the Great Elder make a move, the other elders could only be forced to launch themselves into the air, following behind the Great Elder.
“Who can take my life?” At this moment, a deep voice came from high above, so arrogant that it completely dispersed the mist below.
Zheng Chi and the others were startled. They fixed their gaze and saw a robust figure descending like a meteorite. Because the speed was too fast, a circle of sonic booms was generated in front, emitting a piercing roar.
Even more terrifying was that further behind, the figure was still hundreds of zhang in the air, and a terrifying killing intent descended overwhelmingly. The flying birds below were terrified and fell to their deaths.
“Not good!” Zheng Chi was greatly alarmed because his spirit clone had not been released and was still in his Qi sea, meaning he had no resistance to the killing intent.
As expected, Zheng Chi felt a strong palpitation, and boundless fear engulfed his brain. His spiritual sense then dispersed, and he stumbled downwards.
The other three elders were much the same, falling like birds with broken wings. Whether they were truly defeated or not was only known to themselves. After all, even the strongest Great Elder had faltered, and no one dared to confront that terrifying figure head-on.
Only Elder Ma was still charging upwards with his eyes closed. He was very lucky. His spirit clone had been left at the Immortal Alliance headquarters, so he was naturally unaffected by the killing intent.
Elder Ma charged for a while longer, then suddenly realized that his companions seemed to have disappeared, and he had become a lone warrior.
Elder Ma quickly braked, then looked around, only to find that his companions had already descended to the ground. He was immediately enraged and cursed, “You cowards!”
Qi Huang almost burst out laughing when she saw this scene. She thought, others are just putting on a show, not really going to charge, and this old fellow is really charging, too honest.
At this moment, the terrifying figure had landed above Elder Ma’s head. Who else could it be but the man named Jiang?
The man named Jiang, arrogant and disdainful, directly raised his large foot and stomped towards Elder Ma’s head.
Elder Ma had no way to dodge. He raised his treasure sword and slashed towards the sole of the man’s foot, shouting, “I’ll chop you to death, you son of a bitch!”
The man named Jiang did not dodge or yield. He stomped his large foot directly onto the tip of Elder Ma’s sword. Because the speed was too fast, the space in front actually produced a slight distortion.
As the two drew closer, it was almost impossible for flesh and blood to contend with a treasure sword, but the result was the opposite. The man named Jiang’s body was incredibly strong. His stomp caused a slight spatial fluctuation, which, though imperceptible, was enough to shatter the treasure sword in Elder Ma’s hand.
Therefore, before the foot even landed, Elder Ma’s treasure sword had already cracked from the spatial fluctuation, and then the two truly collided.
“Crackle! Crackle! Crackle!”
The man named Jiang broke through like a hot knife through butter, shattering Elder Ma’s treasure sword with his foot, and then stomped on his head.
“Pfft!”
Elder Ma’s head was instantly stomped into his body, and then his body exploded under the stomp, turning into pieces of flesh and blood drifting downwards.
Elder Ma’s life soul floated out of his body, but it was immediately torn apart by the overwhelming killing intent. He didn’t even have time to scream.
Qi Huang’s clear black and white eyes widened, then she rejoiced: “Good brother! Well killed! Excellently killed! Now that Elder Ma is gone, this Immortal Fairy can do as she pleases.”
