Nangong Xing turned her head back. Lu Xiao already had arrived behind her in the blink of an eye, a slender trail of blood appearing on Nangong Xing"s cheek.
"Xiao"er will not keep you company." Lu Xiao straddled her Star Unicorn Dragon Horse, her hand gripping the Golden Qilin Lance. Her whole body released golden light, appearing very awe-inspiring. The Strength Star smiled, spurring her Star Beast to fly towards the Palace of Empress Wa.
Nangong Xing"s eyebrows rose. She resisted the urge to lash out. The Most High Path already was as incompatible as fire and water with the Purple Thunder Monster. If at this moment they offended Strength Star Jade Qiling, Maiden Mountain"s number one martial general, even the Most High Path could not hold out.
All throughout Lu Junyi"s charming laughter, Nangong Xing followed with her eyes until she disappeared into the Palace of Empress Wa. Her hand wiped away the trail of blood on her cheek, and her delicate hand flicked. Green shadows coalesced together to reform the Dual Modes Ruler back in her hand. Seeing her own Prehistoric Spirit Treasure was powerless, Nangong Xing snorted with considerable resentfulness.
"Are these Star Generals all Transforming Star of Annihilation level? Tsk, truly abnormal." Ancestor Longevity enviously put his palms together.
"Eh?" Suddenly, Ancestor Longevity"s gaze shot a glance, and he showed a shocked expression.
"Ancestor Longevity, what are you making a fuss about." Xuan Zhenzi looked back, speaking to him.
Ancestor Longevity opened his mouth but immediately shook his head. Just now, he seemed to have sensed a silhouette dart across his line of sight and enter the Palace of Wa at the same time. However, upon immediate thought, he was of Supercl.u.s.ter Late Stage cultivation in any case. Who could have been able to slip away from his eyes. Even if they could, with the Inescapable Array that they had set down on the Palace of Empress Wa, they could not have broken free, save for if they were as headstrong as Lu Xiao. Seeing the expression of each of the other Ancestors were all calm, Ancestor Longevity felt he probably was paranoid.
"Even Lu Junyi has come to the Palace of Empress Wa. It seems these Thousand Year Tears of Empress Wa will not be so easy to take." Ancestor Longevity slightly smiled, not even the slightest bit of danger in his words.
Xuan Zhenzi, Nangong Xing, and Queen Lady of Ice shot a glance at him.
"Judging by Ancestor Longevity"s tone, it seems you were eager for Lu Junyi to come." Xuan Zhenzi stroked his paling beard, his tone profound.
"Meaning, Yan Wudao"s Star General Agile Star Zhang Qing"s Star Weapon is truly Four Star, Five Star?" Nangong Xing faintly said, recovering her previous dignified att.i.tude.
Ancestor Longevity smiled without saying a word.
The gazes of all the Great Cultivators suddenly shuddered with fear.
At this moment, Black Turtle Temple"s final floor, Black Turtle Idol.
Jiang Shiyu brought Full Star Jade Flagpole Meng Hudie in a rush to the final floor. When he caught sight of what happened in front of him, he was greatly shocked. He saw the Three Ruan Sisters and Nine Tattooed Dragons Shi Jinglun in an alliance currently battling three people.
The man in the middle wore a black robe and devil armor. He continuously controlled Flying Swords to resist the combined attacks of the four, and the two beautiful women on his left and right each danced. One was n.o.ble and elegant, holding a white lance with three glimmering stars. She stirred the water, and a myriad of water dragons flocked over, whirling around nonstop in the hall, attacking. The girl"s water magic was brilliant, and with a wave, she alone stalled Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi.
The other young girl wore black muslin. Her long hair fluttered about, and her hand had a devil"s claw. Five stars glittered like five demonic specters unhurriedly emerged and unexpectedly did not lose out to Nine Tattooed Dragons in battle.
White Night Dragon Carving Lance.
Longevity Star River Dragon Li Jun.
Five Demons Infernal Devil Claws!
Correct Star Demon King of Chaos Fan Rui.
"Queen Jinglun, the Three Ruan Fort Masters, quickly stop. We should not allow the others to succeed." Holy Lord of Draconic Demon shouted. He controlled the Nine Phantasms Ten Banes Capital Demon Sword to contend against Sword Star Ruan Jin"er"s Flying Swords.
Sword Star Ruan Jin"er"s Innate Skill was Flying Sword. All the Flying Swords she controlled perhaps were not as profound or brilliant as a cultivator"s, but the might of more than a hundred Flying Swords was vast. Add on that Ruan Jin"er also had a Destined Star Weapon, Azure Seas Green Duckweed, Holy Lord of Draconic Demon relied on his Ancient Devil Sword and his Heavenly Devil Battle Armor in order to barely resist, but he was already lacking in strength. His heart was resentful. Borrowing River Dragon Li Xiangfei"s top notch Water General abilities to come to Black Turtle Idol, he had originally hoped he could cooperate with Great Saint Starkiller. How could he have foreseen that Great Saint Starkiller unexpectedly still had not arrived.
On the contrary, Nine Tattooed Dragons and the Three Ruans had an appearance of guarding a tree stump waiting for rabbits.1 Holy Lord of Draconic Demon had just thought to step forward and make a suggestion, to instigate a relationship when at this time the four Star Generals took action against him.
f.u.c.k.
This Heavenly Star, three powerful Water Generals, they nearly made Holy Lord of Draconic Demon die. Fortunately, he had contracted two Stars. Li Xiangfei and Fan Ming could not be underestimated, barely battling on even ground.
However, Holy Lord of Draconic Demon also knew that if this continued, he would inevitably be defeated. His heart was secretly shouting in panic.
"So annoying, just die. Don"t dawdle around." Ruan Ping"er disdainfully said.
The seas rolled, and an enormous wave raged.
The three Star Beasts of the Three Ruans emerged at the same time. Li Xiangfei coldly snorted, and her own Star Beast suddenly hissed. Half-fish and half-dragon, its figure was long, its whole body gleaming with crystalline reflections, especially intelligent.
"Dragonling Kiss!2 The River Dragon surprisingly has this kind of first-rate marine Star Beast."
Jiang Shiyu was excited.
The Blue Waves Underworld Quail, Anitya Dragon King Beast and the Ancient Dragon Alligator battled the Dragonling Kiss.
"The one with the Zhang Sisters is the Purple Thunder Monster. Could it be you all still wish to have battle with This Holy Lord?" The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon sneered.
Ruan Jin"er"s brows rose.
Ruan Ping"er jeered: "Do you think I"m an idiot? I"ve already seen Su Xing long ago. If he is the Purple Thunder Monster, how could he sign a contract with Hu Sanniang…Watch this Star Magic…"
What.
Holy Lord of Draconic Demon was flabbergasted.
Nine Tattooed Dragons Shi Jinglun was stunned, an odd glint flashing past her eyes.
"He may be able to contract multiple Star Generals. This Holy Lord and he have fought before. If we fight again, we definitely will give him an advantage. It would be better for us to work together to dispatch the Purple Thunder Monster. At worst, This Holy Lord will not want the Dragon Snake Great Good Fortune Pill." The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon said in a low voice.
Ruan Ping"er had an expression deriding him as an idiots, "Surprisingly uttering this sort of excuse, we Ruan Sisters also battled with him. Why did we not see Lin Chong, stop with the coyness. If you are a man, be a bit more straightforward. Either roll or die." Ruan Ping"er"s personality was impatient, and she only treated the Holy Lord of Draconic Demon"s words as mere pleas for forgiveness, why would she listen.
The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon extremely hated her, but as it happened, he had no way to prove anything.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you will definitely regret this." The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon used the Devil Smoke Shapeshift to dodge Ruan Mei"er"s attack.
"Young Master, there is no need to say anything more to them."
Li Xiangfei was grim. Fortunately, with a top-notch Water General like her, they still could persist for a time, but to give up like this made the Holy Lord of Draconic Demon very indignant.
The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon immediately had thoughts of fleeing.
Just at this moment, he glanced at Jiang Shiyu. He hastily shouted: "Brother Shiyu, quickly come help me!!"
The Black Turtle Territory"s Devil Palace and Devil Sects had a saying. The Star Masters of the Five Great Sects were actually a bit familiar with one another. With the Devil Star Palace"s Great Saint Starkiller as the head, the other four sects were more or less in relations with one another. Jiang Shiyu"s Fiend Soul Sect and the Holy Lord of Draconic Demon"s Heavenly Underworld precisely were among the four Devil Sects, and they were also considered allies.
Jiang Shiyu clearly did not want to interfere, for he gazed at the Black Turtle Idol"s Good Fortune Pill.
Holy Lord of Draconic Demon"s Devil Smoke Shapeshifting escaped to in front of Jiang Shiyu.
"The Three Ruans and Nine Tattooed Dragons are rats together in a nest. We need to work together, otherwise we will have to submissively cup our fists and yield this Black Turtle Temple to them." The Holy Lord of Draconic Demon said.
"Today, the Black Turtle Territory"s Devil Sects will be rooted out from here together." Ruan Jin"er disdainfully a.s.serted. They completely could not coexist with Star Masters, naturally, they would not let go of such a good opportunity.
Jiang Shiyu clenched his teeth, "Hudie, advance!"
Full Star Jade Flagpole Meng Hudie already was ready to go. Her Star Beast Sky Flipping FIsh emerged, and the Eastern Sea Crystal Blue Flag unfurled. Countless water puppets appeared, forming a large cloud that threw themselves at the Three Ruans and Nine Tattooed Dragons.
At the same time, Jiang Shiyu used his Flying Soul Scattered Spirit Sword, attacking Ruan Jin"er alongside the Demon Sword. The pair"s Flying Swords coordinated, greatly easing the burden.
The Black Turtle Sea"s waves rolled. The earth quaked, and the mountains shook. A range of several li was enveloped in a powerful baleful aura.
Water dragons, Flying Swords, magic weapons, and ferocious beasts overturned the Heavens and Earth. The Three Ruans, Meng Hudie, River Dragon, Maiden Mountain"s most powerful Water Generals practically were all gathered together. Black Turtle Temple nearly collapsed.
Above Black Turtle Temple.
Several hundred cultivators were rocked back and forth by a force that erupted from the seafloor. Their chests were stifled, as if there was an enormous rock crushing them. More than a hundred islands fell apart. A landslide of mud fell, and countless water spouts and water dragons shot into the sky. The cultivators were astonished. They hastily put out every sort of protective ability.
Black Turtle Temple seemed to sink.
Only Ming Die and the other Supercl.u.s.ter Ancestors could still maintain their aloofness.
"Back on topic, is Senior Ming Die not guarding Devil Ancestor Dark Underworld of the Devil Star Palace, to unexpectedly leave seclusion for this Black Turtle Temple. Could it be that the Devil Star Palace does not have faith in Great Saint Starkiller?" The young girl elder of the Illusion And Reality Sect wrinkled her brow, suddenly finding that many of the Devil Star Palace"s cultivators had yet to enter Black Turtle Temple. This scene was somewhat strange.
Her words made the other sect elders realize the truth, and they looked at each other in dismay.
Ming Die played with a black b.u.t.terfly, heedless. She glanced at her and gently smiled: "Only you would revere a Star General as a G.o.d, too high to reach…" The woman shook her head.
"???"
"What is the most important thing to have in the Star Duels?" She asked.
"Of course it is to obtain overlordship over Maiden Mountain." An ancestor answered.
Ming Die let out a derisive laugh: "You truly are stupid. What does allowing a Star Master become the overlord of Maiden Mountain have anything to do with you?"
"It can expand the sect." The ancestor responded, clearly not that confident.
"You have ascended Maiden Mountain, what expansion is there to speak of?"
"This…" The ancestors have never thought about this. In a thousand years of Maiden Mountain"s Star Duels, they had unwittingly partic.i.p.ated, bound together for good or ill.
"Senior Ming Die, these words are a mistake. If a sect can produce an overlord, everyone in the entirety of Liangshan would now. How can this sect not expand. Legend says that Maiden Mountain is related to Star World. If our sect"s disciple can ascend, then our sect can have a taste of Star World"s mystery." They young lady of the Illusion and Reality Sect replied. Let alone this point, raising a Star Master was only a slight effort to each of the Great Sects. These Star Masters were contracted for Star Duels. How could their Star Energy cultivation be compared to a normal person"s. Just with the current situation, Great Saint Starkiller"s Supercl.u.s.ter Late Stage cultivation was sufficient to make each of the Great Sect"s Ancestors envious.
Star Masters have been hailed to be able to realize Transforming Star of Annihilation, to detach themselves from this world. Those in Liangshan"s millions of years would not wish to comprehend Transforming Star of Annihilation could be counted with fingers. For Devil Star Palace to raise such a character as Great Saint Starkiller, how could Devil Ancestor Dark Underworld not have done so for this purpose.
Ming Die showed slight praise. She wistfully blew on the black b.u.t.terfly: "Well said, but as far as I am concerned…isn"t controlling the Star Duels much more interesting?"
Everyone was shaken.
