711: Chapter 218_3 711: Chapter 218_3 After all, he had already set up the Mountain Protection Array of the Hundred Peaks Sect, especially after it had been modified with the newly revised Golden Light Array.
Should anyone attempt to attack the Hundred Peaks Sect again, relying on the Great Formation of the Sect, they could hold out for quite some time.
Jijiang City was closer to the Hundred Peaks Sect than Ten Thousand Horse City, so once the Sect requested assistance, they could rush back.
“The Sun and Moon Demon Sect is going to slaughter Jijiang City?”
The people of the Hundred Peaks Sect, upon hearing the Sect Leader’s words, were somewhat at a loss for understanding.
The Sect Leader had been refining pills within the confines of the Hundred Peaks Sect all this time, never setting foot outside.
How did he know that the people from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect were going to massacre Jijiang City?
While everyone was puzzled, the Sect Leader confidently asserted that the individuals from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect were already on their way, and they followed suit to Jijiang City.
One day later.
At noon, the sun blazed overhead.
Outside the expansive walls of Jijiang City, a pitch-black Flying Boat headed straight towards the city.
The Flying Boat was massive, and its black hull was especially striking under the daylight.
Many citizens in the city caught sight of the approaching Flying Boat.
Among them, quite a few children started to shout happily.
“Look, there’s a Flying Boat!”
“A Flying Boat means an Immortal has arrived.”
“What a huge Flying Boat!”
“Dad, look, the Flying Boat is coming.”
Around them, several adults, witnessing the Flying Boat drawing ever closer, had their expressions change dramatically.
“A black Flying Boat?
The Immortals of the Hundred Peaks Sect don’t seem to use this kind.”
“When the Immortals from the Hundred Peaks Sect come, they seldom travel by Flying Boat.”
“A black Flying Boat, I heard that those from the Demon Sects use black Flying Boats.”
“People from a Demon Sect?”
“What are they going to do?
Are they planning to fly directly into our city?”
“I heard that Yi Qian City was attacked by people from a Demon Sect before, and half the city was destroyed.”
“Run, quick!”
“Hurry home!”
Suddenly, the entire city descended into chaos, with residents running towards their homes, although they knew that even their homes wouldn’t ensure safety if Immortals started slaughtering the city.
However, their first reaction in the face of danger was to hide at home.
Just as Jijiang City was about to fall into total disorder, from the sky above, a thunderous rumble echoed, its magnitude shaking the entire city.
Then, within everyone’s view, a purple bolt of lightning rent the clouds from above, plummeting as if descending from the highest heavens, making the whole world shimmer at that moment.
An overwhelming power accompanied this purple lightning as it violently struck the Flying Boat, causing it to shudder intensely.
Five-thunder Righteous Method!
Cao Zhen, concealed in the shadows, noting that the Flying Boat manned by people from the Sun and Moon Demon Sect showed no signs of slowing down and was about to enter the city, took immediate action.
Perhaps, for many Cultivators, there’s no difference between fighting within a city or in the wilderness.
But he, he could not do it.
Fighting within a city meant countless mortals would die as collateral.
Therefore, he chose to strike them down outside before they could reach it.
After one bolt of lightning struck down, more assaults followed from the sky!
The members of the Hundred Peaks Sect took action simultaneously.
Inside the Flying Boat, Hei Xing, seeing the sudden barrage of attacks, had an expression of shock and uncertainty—how had they been attacked?
They had concealed their traces on their journey here.
Now, it was clear that someone had lain in ambush, and those ambushing possessed considerable strength.
What was going on?
He had no time to ponder, and quickly shouted, “Quick, abandon ship!”
As his words fell, he was already flying out of the Flying Boat.
Some Flying Boats possessed offensive and defensive capabilities, but those were typically palace-class Treasures.
These were powers above the Golden Core Stage, and in the current Reversal Mini Epoch Period, even if used, they could not exhibit their full might.
Thus, the Flying Boat they were on was not a Treasure but fell under the category of Mechanical Techniques.
Being inside the Flying Boat when it was attacked meant they could only passively take the hits, so the best course of action was to leave the Flying Boat the moment they realized it was under attack.
With the highest Cultivation Base among them, he was the first to leap out of the Flying Boat.
Cao Zhen, from a distance, saw a figure flying out of the Flying Boat and recognized at a glance that it was Hei Xing.
Behind him, a complete Pill Fusion clearly indicated a ten-phenomena Golden Core!
In the next moment, behind Cao Zhen, a Golden Core erupted with a dazzling glow, so luminous that it even overshadowed the sun’s rays at its zenith.
Within this Golden Core, a vast power, akin to a starry river, surged forth,
In an instant, numerous bolts of lightning, each bearing the force of myriad jun, shot out.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was filled with countless bolts of lightning, some of which reached the pinnacle of rage, others were violently unstoppable, and still others were filled with an unassailable righteous aura, as if coming from the Nine Netherworld…
In that moment, ten Divine Skills had descended.
Among these ten Divine Skills, there was even an intensely hot Flame.
Cao Zhen!
Hei Xing’s face drastically changed, as he had never experienced such an attack before—a plethora of Divine Skills striking him, giving him the sensation that ten Golden Core Stage Cultivators were simultaneously attacking!
Though it was his first encounter with this kind of assault, he had heard of it.
