Chapter 586: Chapter 564: Dragon King, Gold Devouring Ant_10
However, he did not panic but grasped the beast horn and easily caught the punitive lightning that descended from the sky. When he saw Immortal Master Haixue, his hair standing on end and body trembling from the electric shock, he once again intervened to shield his teacher from the remaining tribulation lightning.
Bei Bing’s grandfather chose to turn invisible and vanished in a swish.
But the lightning, as if it had eyes, chased after him to strike.
“Disciple, let’s go help the Sect Master.”
Immortal Master Haixue pulled Qin Niu along and flew toward the purple-golden coffin.
Qin Niu used the beast horn to block the tribulation lightning.
“The Azure Dragon Horn! You, a mere Immortal Master, actually possess the Azure Dragon Horn?”
The Dragon King stared at the beast horn in Qin Niu’s hand.
Suddenly, an overpowering and irresistible force attempted to snatch the Azure Dragon Horn from Qin Niu’s hand. The Dragon King was simply too strong, so much that he had no way of contending against him.
“Do not bully the weak with power! A Dragon King, robbing an Immortal Master of his treasure, aren’t you afraid of losing your dignity?”
Once again, a childish voice emanated from within the purple-golden coffin, neutralizing the force that tried to take the Azure Dragon Horn, allowing Qin Niu to barely hold on to it.
Immortal Master Haixue was already flushed with effort, struggling to protect Qin Niu.
“Hundred-Tempering, you are not yet capable of resisting me as you are now.”
The Dragon King intensified the force of his struggle for the horn.
In the face of absolute interests, who would truly care about face?
“What if I join in?”
A voice that was very familiar to Qin Niu sounded, and immediately after, a slovenly-dressed, gourd-carrying drunk staggered into view.
“Uncle Zhang!”
Qin Niu was almost in disbelief when he saw this intoxicated figure.
This person was none other than Zhang Banzui, who lived in Shuangfeng Village, earning wine money by flattering and fortune-telling.
How come these powerful characters all nestled in the small mountain village of Shuangfeng Village?
Qin Niu was puzzled.
Yuan Ji was equally shocked when she saw Zhang Banzui, her delicate body trembling violently. Covering her mouth with her hand, she stared at Zhang Banzui intently.
“You, you are the Wine Immortal Venerable?”
“Indeed! While the world awakens, I alone am drunk! Drink!”
Zhang Banzui swayed, half-drunk and half-awake. He took down the wine gourd from his waist and guzzled it down, then wore an utterly intoxicated expression of enjoyment.
“I have searched for you in hardship for many years, never expecting you to have hidden in Shuangfeng Village. My suspicions were not without cause, but repeated tests never revealed you to be the Wine Immortal Venerable. You saved me from the Dragon King’s clutches, allowing me to escape all those years ago. You… this time, you can’t just leave without saying goodbye; you must give me a chance to express my gratitude.”
Yuan Ji looked at Zhang Banzui and actually knelt before him in public.
“Foolish, foolish, foolish!”
Zhang Banzui waved his hand casually, and Yuan Ji was lifted by an invisible force, unable to kneel any longer.
“Hundred-Tempering, I knew you were a thorn in the side from the day you established your sect. Now it seems I was right. These people, each and every one of them, has joined your Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect. It never occurred to me that even the esteemed Wine Immortal Venerable would join your Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect.”
Regret and wariness resonated in the Dragon King’s voice.
The weight of Zhang Banzui’s presence seemed immensely significant.
“Back then, I named it Hundred-Tempering, which also meant perseverance and unity in struggle against a tyrant like you. Unlike you, who desires to rule this realm, to reign supreme and forbid anyone from surpassing you, my Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect coexists harmoniously with all strong beings, welcoming all like the vast sea, and that is why we have the support of so many seniors. Those with the Tao receive help, those without it have little support; it’s an unchanging truth.”
Just as the Immortal Venerable Hundred-Tempering finished speaking, more figures appeared behind him.
Qin Niu noticed the arrival of Cai Xian’s teacher.
He had known that Cai Xian’s teacher was no ordinary person, and now it seemed he was right, possessing the cultivation of an Immortal Monarch.
There were also some powerful figures he did not recognize.
After all, beneath the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, there were over a thousand sects, spread across vast territories, and it was not possible for all strong beings to be gathered in the territory of the Black Tiger Gang.
“Good that you have come; you rebels, all in one net. To uphold the heavenly way, for all under the heavens to witness!”
After scanning the gathered strong beings, the Dragon King still prepared for a fierce battle.
This time, his black-hole eyes finally showed pupils, but they were filled with a terrifying killing intent.
Where his gaze landed, blocks of ice and snow exploded spontaneously.
