Chapter 632: Joining the Battle
The moment Nie Tian appeared in the teleportation portal in the Dong Clan, Li Langfeng exclaimed, “Nie Tian!”
He had sat by the teleportation portal without saying a word for the past ten days.
He had heard the discussion amongst the Dong Clan members and the latest information Qin Yan had acquired from the Spirit Condor, though he had remained silent the whole time.
He had been waiting for Nie Tian.
Overjoyed to see Nie Tian, Dong Li let out a sigh of relief and said hurriedly, “Nie Tian! Are you okay?”
“I’m good, very good actually,” Nie Tian said, smiling.
Dong Li had thought that the reason why he had asked to use their cultivation room was because he had overconsumed his power, and urgently needed to recover.
“What’s the situation now?” Nie Tian asked.
Since the few Dong Clan elders present didn’t knew Nie Tian well, and Dong Li and Dong Baijie also knew about the current situation, they didn’t say anything.
However, they all had grim looks on their faces, frowning as if they were facing a great calamity.
Dong Baijie let out a sigh and explained the failed negotiation in the Heaven Palace Sect to Nie Tian. He told him that Xia Yi had insisted that he give him the Flame Dragon Armor, but Hua Mu had refused him on his behalf.
Then, Zhao Luofeng had proposed that the Heaven Palace Sect trade a wood-attributed Spirit Channeling grade treasure for the Flame Dragon Armor, but Hua Mu had refused that proposal as well.
Because of that, the meeting had broken up in discord.
Meanwhile, the Heaven Palace Sect’s Five Elements Fortune Formation wouldn’t be able to last much longer. The moment it failed, the final battle between the humans and the outsiders would break out.
“So the battle hasn’t started?” Nie Tian asked.
He didn’t know how long he had cultivated and prepared for this battle in Dong Wangling’s personal cultivation room.
“Actually, the battle has already started,” Qin Yan said.
The others’ faces became even grimmer upon hearing these words.
“Has the Five Elements Fortune Formation failed already?” Nie Tian asked in a heavy voice.
“Not yet, but the Heaven Palace Sect thought it was about time to fight back,” Qin Yan explained. “The Heaven Palace Sect’s Five Elements Fortune Formation is connected to five arcane realms. If any of the realms fails to continue to provide elemental power, the grand spell formation will fail.
“The Heaven Palace Sect thought that the outsiders had already spent a great deal of power attacking the Five Elements Fortune Formation. Also, if the grand spell formation could be preserved, they would still be able to retreat into the spell formation and teleport to their arcane realms from there.
“Therefore, the human experts have already charged out of the Five Elements Fortune Formation and engaged in a fierce battle against the outsiders.”
Nie Tian’s expression flickered as he quickly turned around and entered the teleportation portal. Without the slightest hesitation, he said, “Get me there!”
“No!” Dong Li cried out. Somewhat panicked, she said, “You, you don’t have to put yourself in such danger! Plus, you have the Flame Dragon Armor with you. Once Xia Yi sees you, I’m afraid he’ll force you to give it up, and he might receive support from the others!”
The crowd of Dong Clan members had already discussed this matter a few times during the past few days.
Dong Baijie and Dong Li had both reckoned that Nie Tian shouldn’t go to the Heaven Palace Sect even if he returned in time to join the battle.
If Xia Yi indeed refused to help, and the other Soul realm experts couldn’t contend against the outsiders, what difference would Nie Tian make?
They also deemed that, when it was a matter of life or death, even experts like Zong Zheng and Qian Buhui might not still want to defend Nie Tian against Xia Yi.
Eyebrow furrowed, Nie Tian let out a cold harrumph. “Xia Yi... He might not necessarily have what it takes to take the Flame Dragon Armor from me!”
WHOOSH!
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed into view before the crowd.
Nie Tian was taken aback. “Senior Zhao! Why are you still here?”
