Chapter 292: Tang Yin Rushed in as the Battle Started (2/2)
Mo Lin was holding his long spear and his face was full of excitement. Although this was the weakest corp among the Western Mystery Army, if he managed to annihilate them, he would still be able to rake up great merits.
He swept his spear around and cleaved a soldier completely in half. As the hot blood of the dead soldier splattered around, Mo Lin became extremely excited.
Among the broken and ragged rocks on top of the cliff, stood the black-robed old man. His eyes were twinkling as he muttered unceasingly. All of a sudden, he started drawing an array. The array was extremely profound, abstruse, and queer. Although it was complicated, the old man didn't take long to complete the entire array.
As the array took shape, five scarlet talismans floated in the air and gave form to the array. In an instant, a suction force burst out from the array. Along with the unceasing roaring in the valley, bursts of ash-gray smoke billowed out. The smoke was made up of countless fuzzy figures. Some of them were raging as they struggled around, while others were wantonly roaring.
Those were the soul essences of the soldiers who died. It was coupled with their spirit which didn't disperse as it contained their anger and unwillingness from when they were still alive. Looking at the fuzzy figures, it could be said that their feeling of resentment was extremely dense.
”Haha! Continue to kill each other! The more deaths, the better!” This black-robed Shura Sect expert was extremely excited. He couldn't help laughing out loud.
Suddenly, his laughter abruptly stopped. When his gaze wandered into the distance, he saw that there was a glowing sharp sword rushing towards him. It was flying toward him from the sky at an extremely fast speed.
”Shura Sect's devil! Get out here and go to hell!”
The light around the sword dispersed and it turned into a rain of swords. The numerous swords covered the entire sky and shot towards the black-robed old man. The swords beheaded anything which stood in its way.
With swords-like brows above his eyes which shone like stars, Tang Yin appeared in mid-air. Walking on air, Tang Yin approached the black-robed old man as he held a sword which was spinning in front of him.
It was obvious that he had already reached the seventh grade Battle-Saint realm. It could be seen from his ability to fly in the air. He was truly advancing quickly in his cultivation.
The moment Tang Yin joined the battle, the Western Mystery Army's morale rose. In an imposing manner, they started to ferociously retaliate against their enemies. Turning the tables, they started killing their enemies.
Mo Lin looked at Tang Yin who was floating in the air with a grave expression. In the past, it was quite difficult to see a single Battle-Saint expert. However, Battle-Saint experts were appearing continuously as the war raged on.
”Damn... Is he another person from the Celestial Arcanum Sect? Or is he someone from the southern region factions? Why does everyone want to prevent the rise of our Shura Sect? That would only happen in your dreams! All of you are going to die!”
A blood-red light burst out from the black-robed old man's eyes. He shot out and flew toward Tang Ying. As his claw-like hand rushed toward Tang Yin who was floating in the air, it turned into a blood-red light. This light was extremely imposing as it shot towards Tang Yin.
Tang Yin didn't fear him in the slightest as he raised his sword. In an instant, he engaged in a battle with this black-robed old man.
This battle was extremely tragic as the whole valley seemed dyed red with blood. Anyone would tremble at the sight of the valley.
Bu Fang looked at Tang Yin with a confused expression on his face. When he saw that Tang Yin was grasping his swords and fighting the black-robed old man in the air, his eyebrows slightly rose up. He didn't expect to meet an old friend in such a place.
From what he could see, Tang Yin wasn't a match for the black-robed old man. After all, Tang Yin had just broken through and wasn't strong enough yet.
This battle was fought from night till dawn. Tang Yin's condition worsened as he fought against the black-robed old man. Eventually, he flew back with a pale complexion. Zhu Yue also loudly shouted an order to retreat to his men as he saw that they were unable to defeat the enemy. The Western Mystery Army, in the end, chose to leave the valley.
As the army retreated, the cooks from the Cooks' Army Unit also retreated. They protected the provisions as they retreated, keeping the ingredients safe.
In the sky, the black-robed old man's eyes flashed with a cruel glint as he roared, ”Pursue them! Kill them all!”
Running away? How could I let the piece of fat meat which reached my mouth run away? If I eliminated this division of the Western Mystery Army, then I would have completed half of the mission the High Priest assigned me. At this rate, I would be able to finish collecting the soul essence and spirits after attacking Mo Luo City. This would be a huge step towards the rise of the Shura Sect.
As such, this black-robed man didn't want to let this division of the Western Mystery Army withdraw. As for the Celestial Arcanum Sect's expert, the black-robed old man had already fought against him for so long that he wasn't afraid of him at all. He knew that there was no way for the Celestial Arcanum Sect's expert to defeat him.
Mo Lin's eyes were glimmering with excitement as he waved his weapon. With a loud roar, he pursued the retreating army. He didn't want to let this opportunity slip through his grasp.
Tang Yin was quite angered by this. Was this Shura Sect's devil still not satisfied?
The Western Mystery Army which was pushed into desperate straits started another round of battle against the enemy. Another grand battle occurred in this valley. However, the Western Mystery Army's Third Corp was only able to retreat at the cost of Tang Yin's heavy injuries.
The Western Mystery Army's Third Corp who had just set camp in another place was in quite a sorry state. Around half of their provisions were lost in their retreat.
As they were currently lacking ingredients, Wei Dafu's face darkened as he could only look for Bu Fang. Since there were only a little bit of spirit energy ingredients left, their only option was to use ordinary ingredients.
Wei Dafu felt his face glow in shame. However, Bu Fang didn't make things difficult for him. He immediately agreed to start cooking using whatever ingredients he had.
Long Cai was left at Bu Fang's side as his assistant.
After Wei Dafu left, the two of them started preparing the ingredients. They needed to cook a large amount of food as they had to feed a large number of people.
This was Bu Fang's first time cooking in such a big wok.
