Chapter 398



398 Chapter 397-dig a hole and bury the clouds

It was not easy for the formation-breaking cannon and three nascent soul realm cultivators to break the defensive formation of Yan city, even if han xuzi, a peak nascent soul realm cultivator, was among them.

Especially the situation in the city, which was quickly suppressed.

Yunxiao sect did have many cultivators in the capital of Yan. Some were on the surface, such as holding official positions in the court; Some of them lived and cultivated normally; Some were to maintain some of Yunxiao sect’s businesses in Yan city; There were also some people that Yunxiao sect had secretly planted in the capital of Yan.

This time, it might not be all the Yunxiao sect cultivators in Yan city who stood out. But no matter what, whoever showed up would be suppressed.

After all, up until now, no nascent soul cultivators had sneaked into the city in advance. After all, the Lu family was not living off a woman.

If there was no hope of breaking through from the inside, it would not be an easy task to break through the Yan city’s formation with brute force by relying on a level-six spiritual pulse, a high-level defensive formation, and Lu mingchao, a nascent soul cultivator.

It was not impossible, but it would take a long time. It was normal to be besieged for years.

However, Yunxiao sect clearly did not have that much time to waste. If the Yan Kingdom were to persist for a few years, Lu Qing would have successfully broken through. By then, everything would be over.

Just as everyone had thought, Weiyun had indeed taken part in this operation.

This time, it wasn’t like the last time when li Shiwen broke through to the materialization realm, where the Wei Kingdom people came to help. The Wei Kingdom could not wait for Yunxiao sect to succeed. To the people of Wei Kingdom, Lu Qing was much more terrifying than Wei Yun.

Wei Yun’s strength was only at this level. He might not even be Xia Cang’s match in a one-on-one fight. However, if Lu Qing were to grow further, he would be too terrifying.

In fact, they had even asked Yunxiao sect if they wanted to help.

Of course, this was rejected by Yunxiao sect. If Lu Qing officially started the breakthrough ceremony, Yunxiao sect would be able to settle this matter on their own without any help.

It was completely unnecessary to bring in the Wei people.

He didn’t want to attract another Tiger after he hit one. What’s more, the Wei Kingdom didn’t dare to send a Dharma power into the Yan Kingdom. Wouldn’t they suffer a great loss if they were surrounded and killed?

Back to what had happened in Yan city, after han xuzi and the others had surrounded Yan city for a month, the entire Great Yan Kingdom knew about this matter and that a civil war was about to break out.

But this Civil War had started and ended too quickly.

After being trapped for a month and seeing no hope of breaking the formation of Yan city in a short period of time, Weiyun Grandmaster made his move.

The moment she made her move, the great formation of Yan city was activated.

Of course, it wasn’t broken by her, but opened by itself.

Lu Qing, who was controlling a Dragon Soul, appeared before everyone!

All the Yunxiao sect cultivators ‘faces turned extremely pale, especially Weiyun.

At this time, how could they not know that they had been tricked?

To be honest, it was not that Yunxiao sect, Weiyun, and the others did not think of this before they started.

But so what if he did? They had already tried their best to investigate, but they could not find anything. Lu Qing had indeed not appeared in front of people for a long time, at least for a few years. All the materials needed for a breakthrough had been gathered in Yan city.

That was a matter of whether he believed it or not.

If you believe it, then take action; if you don’t believe it, even if Yingluo really jumped into a pit because of disbelief, they wouldn’t suffer any losses and would do it again next year. When the time comes, would you still not believe it?

The most important thing was that if there were no movements at all, how could he deal with the other party who had directly turned into Dharma?

Yunxiao sect, who had been forced to this extent, really had no other choice. It was true that they had taken the initiative to attack, but in reality, they were the ones who had been forced into a corner and had no choice.

However, it was clear that they had lost the bet.

This was indeed a trap, and they had jumped in.

Weiyun was a little dejected. She let out a long sigh, but she wasn’t too flustered.

Of course, this was a very bad thing for Yunxiao sect. However, it was fortunate that the situation was not so bad that it was completely irredeemable.

fellow Daoist Lu, you’ve broken through to the materialization realm. To Great Yan, it’s a great thing, a good thing. Weiyun said. It’s just that we’ve received news that the Wei might have already sent their Dharma adept, Zheng Yu, to infiltrate the Yan capital to disrupt your breakthrough. We’re here to protect you, Daoist Lu. The reason why we used force earlier was because the great formation of Yan city had not been activated for a long time. We were worried that Zheng Yu had already taken control of the city, so he did not allow us to enter bi an.”

Wei Yun found such an excuse.

In fact, Yunxiao sect had said this since han xuzi arrived.

Of course, they could not use the fact that Lu Qing had broken through as an excuse. That would be too stupid. After all, they had received the notice from the Lu clan and had not expressed any opinion on setting off.

Even though they were here for this, they still had to find an excuse.

No one would believe this excuse, but at least it was a plausible one.

Lu Qing had a mocking smile on his face after he heard Weiyun’s words. He did not say anything and just looked at her.

Lu Qing’s stare made Weiyun’s hair stand on end. However, he could only pretend to be calm. He braced himself and said, ” “It is the Yan Kingdom’s great fortune to see fellow Daoist Lu safe and sound. There was a problem with the information we received earlier. Yingying, since you’re fine, we’ll take our leave.”

When he heard this, Lu Qing finally said, ”

“You still want to leave now?”

“Fellow Daoist Lu, what do you mean?”

Lu Qing sighed and said, ” “It’s not that I didn’t give you a chance, but since you don’t want me to live, I won’t be polite anymore.”

As his voice fell, gray true essence instantly covered the giant dragon under him. In the blink of an eye, the giant grey dragon that had been famous throughout the entire cultivation world and the nine nations during the Great War ten years ago appeared in front of Weiyun.

“Let’s go!” Wei Yun shouted loudly. This sentence was obviously to remind han xuzi and the others.

Most of the Yunxiao sect cultivators present had witnessed Lu Qing’s methods. They were all present ten years ago.

They knew that a battle between Dharma adepts was about to break out in the area outside of Yan city. Even though they were very worried about their ancestral master, they also understood that they could not help at all in this battle. Their presence here would only distract the old ancestor.

Thus, these people scattered and fled.

At the same time, Weiyun also revealed his dharma body.

Did she think that she could be on par with Lu Qing? But at the very least, he could put up a fight. Back then, Chen Man had only just entered the Dharma stage, unlike her, who was an experienced Dharma adept. Moreover, he could tell from the battle that Chen man’s most outstanding techniques, which were the various difficult-to-deal characteristics of the void attribute, were mostly ineffective against Lu Qing. That was also an important factor in Chen man’s defeat.

She did not dare to say that she was stronger than Lu Qing, but at the very least, she could hold him back temporarily.

He would wait until han xuzi and the others had escaped far enough before retreating while fighting.

As for the matter of Yunxiao sect completely falling out with the Lu clan this time, it was indeed a headache and difficult to deal with. However, he would consider it in the future. For now, he had to deal with the most important matter at hand.

Another figure flashed out of the great formation of Yan city.

That was Lu mingchao.

When she saw han xuzi and the others fleeing in all directions, she immediately ran out and wanted to chase after them.

However, Lu Qing stopped him.

“Let’s go back and raise the Yan city formation.”

Lu Qing did not explain the reason, but mingchao could understand it.

It was too dangerous for her to chase after him. After all, she had only just entered the nascent soul level. Although her divine-grade cultivation technique, special means of Void Spirit root, and magical power made her combat power much stronger than cultivators of the same level, there was still a peak nascent soul cultivator like han xuzi among the enemies. A difference of nine sub-levels would still be very obvious in strength. This was very likely not something that cultivation techniques or attributes could make up for.

Most importantly, what could these people do if they ran? If Weiyun lost, these people couldn’t do anything. They couldn’t run to the ends of the earth.

Furthermore, the monk could run but the temple could not. The huge Yunxiao sect had such a deep foundation in the country of Yan that it could not run away.

And all of this was built on the body of this immortal-like Dharma plane expert.

Lu Qing smiled when he saw that Ming Chao had retreated back into Yan city and had raised the great formation of Yan city.

It was good that her daughter was obedient.

His voice came from the giant grey dragon, ” it’s just you and me now. We didn’t use our full strength on the riverbank. Now, let’s have a good fight.

With that, a gray flame appeared directly in Weiyun’s dharma body. The ice world also appeared in an instant, pulling Weiyun into it. The grey-faced giant dragon opened its mouth wide, and violent Dragon Fire surged out.

Lu Qing displayed his skills in an instant.

These were just the usual methods, but it was enough to make Weiyun raise his guard.

She had seen Lu Qing’s methods when he was fighting Chen Man. She knew that this was only the beginning. Back then, what had left the deepest impression on her was not how powerful Lu Qing’s moves were. Instead, it was his true origin that would never be exhausted, as well as his continuous attacks.

These techniques were varied, had different forms, and different effects, but they were so dense that it was like drowning in water, making it hard for one to breathe.

Wei Yun knew that he couldn’t just take the beating passively. Otherwise, even if she had a deeper Foundation than Chen Man, it would be impossible for her to withstand such a continuous and breathless blow. She might be able to last longer than Chen Man, but Lu Qing would never exhaust his true origin. She would not be able to wait for a chance to turn the tide. Instead, her energy would be gradually depleted due to the continuous attacks, and she would die of resentment.

She had to take advantage of the fact that Lu Qing’s suppressive force had yet to be fully unleashed and that she was still at her peak to launch a counterattack and seize the initiative. Only then would she have a chance of winning.

At the very least, it was vitality.

Therefore, after Lu Qing’s attack came, she was not in a hurry to think of a way to put out the fire and fight against the freezing feeling. She gathered all the power she could gather and formed hundreds of giant water swords out of thin air.

These giant swords were the same as the ones she had used when they were fighting by the river.

However, it was much stronger in essence.

Not only did the number of giant water swords increase to hundreds in an instant, but they also became much larger.

Moreover, as the giant water swords attacked Lu Qing, Weiyun also charged toward Lu Qing without hesitation. The immortal sword in his hand slashed outward. Under his full power, the gray flame was cut open.

However, Lu Qing did not feel nervous or fearful at all.

Attack?

Who was afraid of who?

Did anyone really think that they could win against him in a battle?

The golden-white holy sword appeared, and the ten thousand sword manipulation technique was used.

The deep sea scepter appeared, and a dozen water dragons whizzed out.

Under Weiyun’s shocked gaze, all these methods were directed at her.

This was something she had not expected.

In her mind, shouldn’t lu Qing’s methods be the ones to deal with her giant water sword and her attacks that were charging toward him? After that, the two of them would fight each other with their techniques. When they reached a certain level, she would be able to gain the upper hand by relying on the deep accumulation of her Dharma power over the years. She would then try to defeat Lu Qing. If he couldn’t gain an advantage, then he would just find an opportunity to leave.

However, why did Lu Qing not play by the rules? Those moves were all aimed at him, so what would he do about the giant water swords that filled the sky? That would mean that all of them would hit Lu Qing!

Was he really that confident in the gray armor on the Dragon’s body? No matter what, he was only at the nascent Soul Stage. Could he really withstand the hundreds of giant water swords that he had summoned in his Dharma form?

Weiyun didn’t believe it!

Now that things had come to this, she had no other way out. She just had to go!

She was the first to hit her opponent.

She watched as the hundreds of water swords slashed at the Dragon.

However, half of them missed.

She could not believe her eyes!

She had clearly seen that the giant water swords had hit their target. Lu Qing and his giant dragon were there. They did not even move much. However, many of the giant swords passed through his body as if there was nothing there.

Of course, there were still some giant water swords that successfully hit. However, after the damage was reduced by half, the remaining attacks still managed to shake the giant grey dragon, but there were no signs of it being broken.

If all of the water swords hit him, he might really be broken. However, it was clear that the few things they had were not enough to break through Lu Qing’s heavensguard destiny spell.

After activating the illusory space, he had a 50% chance of dodging attacks. In addition to the fate guarding sky technique, Lu Qing could not be bothered to exchange blows with Wei Yun. He would be done with just taking the attacks head-on.

Now, Lu Qing had withstood it, and it was Weiyun’s turn to withstand his methods.
