Chapter 1697 - Sudden Siege (1/2)
Clack! Clack!
A dozen-meter-tall skeleton walked out from underground.
Its bones were very thick and s.h.i.+mmery. It seemed as if they were made out of stars. They radiated a terrifying aura. Even though the cultivators here were all top elites, they still felt terror.
That skeleton must have been a Supreme Saint in life.
Zhang Ruochen led Fairy Tianchu into the distance. He also observed the connection between Mo Xiaogu and the Supreme Saint skeleton.
One needed divine technique to control a Supreme Saint monster. Even a Supreme Saint personally attacking might not be able to succeed, let alone a Saint King.
The Amazing Little Taoist saw a clue first. “That black lotus in her hands is the Yin G.o.d Lotus. It is born from absorbing the Yin Qi of a G.o.d’s corpse. It usually grows in the corpse’s forehead. After turning the corpse into a mummy, the Yin G.o.d Lotus is able to bloom fully. That witch is using the Yin G.o.d Lotus to control the Supreme Saint monster.”
Zhang Ruochen was confused. “How come you know about the Yin G.o.d Lotus?”
“I don’t know. I just suddenly thought of it,” the Amazing Little Taoist said seriously. “It’s like it was hidden deep in my memories and I’d always known.”
Mo Xiaogu held the black lotus. Like a dark elf, she flew to the shoulder of the Supreme Saint monster and looked down on everyone. “King Yan, won’t you attack now? If not, I’ll attack!”
Fairy Tianchu was one of the nine beauties that shook the entire Heaven World. Her cultivation and physique were both very strong. Capturing her was endlessly beneficial for King Yan. How could he not want to attack?
But Mo Xiaogu’s abilities were too shocking and strange. King Yan felt that she was a bigger threat.
“Where are you a princess of?” King Yan asked cautiously. “How come I’ve never heard of you before?”
Mo Xiaogu chuckled. “Don’t worry. We’re not enemies. I am the cousin of Mo Yan, a leader of the s.p.a.ce G.o.dly Palace. Actually, we’re on the same side.”
Then she tossed out the metal badge that represented her status.
w.a.n.g Tian caught the badge and checked it. “You really are Gong Ziyan’s cousin.”
King Yan and Queen Lian were both relieved. Thankfully, this witch was on their side. Otherwise, it would be very troublesome to be her enemy.
Fairy Tianchu must be in despair now, right?
King Yan had no more concern and chuckled. “Fairy, if you submit to us, you can still survive. Otherwise, you’ll turn into my feminine Yin medicine.”
Fairy Tianchu pulled her hand back. She stood up tall and said proudly, “You really think I’m afraid? King Yan, if you dare to take another step forward, see if you’ll get destroyed.”
King Yan was taken aback and fear flashed past his eyes. Then he licked his lips and laughed. “Fairy, you’ve already been poisoned by the Harmony Pill. Why are you still pretending to be strong? When the poison takes effect, don’t beg me, haha!”
Fairy Tianchu furrowed her brows and sent a message to Zhang Ruochen. “Later, I’ll help create an opening for you and help you escape. You must grasp the chance.”
“What will you do after I escape?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
“I’ll delay them, or else neither of us can escape. After you’re free, go find the Great Senior, Wizard G.o.d Emperor, or Thousand Star Maiden. One of them can save me.”
“Aren’t you afraid that I won’t come back after escaping?”
“If you escape, they’ll have concerns when attacking me,” Fairy Tianchu said calmly.
Her pure jade-like hands extended from her sleeves. A slender forefinger and middle finger held a purple rune scroll.
“No way under heaven, good fortune everywhere.”
Dense light patterns appeared on the gold rune. They spread out like spider webs and quickly connected the surrounding s.p.a.ce.
“Be careful. She’s preparing to use the Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune.”
w.a.n.g Tian, King Yan, and Queen Lian’s expressions all changed. They immediately used their fastest speed to retreat until they were 100 feet away. At the same time, they summoned their strongest weapons to s.h.i.+eld themselves.
The Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune of the Tianchu Civilization had a great reputation. Everyone under the Supreme Saint Realm feared it.
According to legends, a strong ninth step Saint King had once been killed by it.
For w.a.n.g Tian and the others, they were only confident in s.h.i.+elding the destructive force from the Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune after retreating to 100 meters away.
Taking advantage of this, Zhang Ruochen used the Spatial Move. He charged out from the opening between w.a.n.g Tian, King Yan, and Queen Lian.
“Stop him!” w.a.n.g Tian growled. “Don’t let him escape.”
“You all should worry about yourselves first.”
Fairy Tianchu pressed down on the sky with two fingers. The golden rune flew out, attacking w.a.n.g Tian’s group, stopping them from chasing after Zhang Ruochen.
“Queen Lian, King Yan and I will block the Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune. You go after that guy.”
w.a.n.g Tian and King Yan each took out a defensive rune scroll to block the Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune. However, the defensive layer only lasted for two breaths before it was torn apart.
The strong golden windstorm hit their bodies, forcing them back.
w.a.n.g Tian’s Endless Blade shone with five layers of saint light. It s.h.i.+elded him like a b.l.o.o.d.y moon, countering the remaining power of the Good Fortune Tongxuan Rune.
King Yan entered the King-Burier Divine Furnace. He’d just activated the 30,000 runes on the furnace when the golden windstorm crashed in. It crushed the King-Burier Divine Furnace underground.
Thankfully, the two were 100 feet away. If they were any closer, they might not be able to take it.
