Chapter 898: Traitors
At that moment, a chaotic battle was being fought at the front gates of the Spirit Radiance Sect.
As most of the elders of the four great sects had gone to the spirit Herb Valley, the majority who remained behind were disciples. Fortunately, the spirit cultivator disciples that Yun Chujiu had saved a few days ago had already returned to the sect. Otherwise, they would not have been a match for the G.o.dly Devil Hall.
On the contrary, the spirit energy of the people from the G.o.dly Devil Hall was much higher. Nearly a third of them were at the level of spirit emperor, so their strength was already superior on paper.
“Xuanyuan Changkong, I advise you to join our G.o.dly Devil Hall if you know what’s good for you. If you resist stubbornly, the Spirit Radiance Sect will end up like the Bixiao Palace and the Skyblade Sect,” Du Guyi shouted arrogantly.
Master Xuanyuan sneered, “Du Guyi, although I used to have a lot of complaints about you in the past, it’s still a compet.i.tion between sects after all. I thought that you knew how to tell right from wrong. I didn’t expect that you were actually a spy from the G.o.dly Devil Hall! No wonder the G.o.dly Devil Hall knows about our every move. So it was you who sold us out!”
“What’s right and wrong? Humph! What are we cultivating for? Isn’t it for the Great Dao of immortality? I’m only at the sixth level of the Spirit Emperor Realm. I might not have the chance to reach the peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Emperor Realm in my lifetime. However, after taking the medicine given by the Lord, I reached the peak of the seventh level of the Spirit Emperor realm in just a few months. My ascension is just around the corner!
“Moreover, the Lord has promised us that as long as we find the Eye of the Earth, we will head to the land of bliss. The spiritual energy there is a hundred times denser than here. We will be able to live forever without any effort! Since that’s the case, why don’t I choose to submit to the Lord?! Xuanyuan Changkong, a wise man submits to circ.u.mstances. This is your last chance. If you continue to be stubborn, not only will you die, but all your disciples will also die! Your Spirit Radiance sect will also be razed to the ground!” Du Guyi said sinisterly.
“Du Guyi, for your own selfish reasons, are you going to just stand by and watch the lives of the people be destroyed? Recently, you’ve captured several cities citizens as sacrifices to the evil array. That is inhumane!”
“Inhumane? Heaven and earth are heartless and treat all living things as dogs. What’s the difference between humans and demonic beasts? It’s their honor to be able to contribute a little to their master! Including you, if you’re captured, you’ll all become the source of power for the evil array. Hahaha!” Du Guyi laughed sinisterly, his spiritual power level was one level higher than Master Xuanyuan’s. He was very proud that his victory was imminent.
“You! You are simply, you have gone mad!” Master Xuanyuan’s face was livid with anger. He never thought that Du Guyi would say such heartless words.
“Gone mad? You are the one who does not know the situation. Your disciples are much more sensible than you! If it weren’t for their help, how would we be able to break through your defensive formation?! hahaha!”
The veins on Master Xuanyuan’s forehead bulged. When he recalled how the array had been broken, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Originally, after the members of the Skyblade Sect, Bixiao Palace, and a portion of the disciples of the Heavenly Gates sect who had escaped entered the Spirit Radiance Sect, Master Xuanyuan had activated the protective array. It would not be a problem for him to keep it up for a while.
He never expected that the Bai siblings and Yun Chushan would take the opportunity to inspect the array core and tamper with the array disk. Moreover, Elder Qu, who was the best at array formations in the Spirit Radiance Sect, was not around. Thus, no one noticed the flaw. When the array was broken, the two sides started fighting, only then did they realize that they were the ones who had tampered with it.
No wonder the three of them had a rapid increase in their spiritual power. It was from consuming the G.o.dly Devil Hall’s medicinal pills.
