Chapter 2535: Plan Was Foiled
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
The Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array spun rapidly when Long Bai and Long Chang attacked it.
Out of the 4900 people who were supporting the Array, other than the 490 people who were headed by Netherworld Emperor, the rest of the groups took action.
Spear shadows and vital energy whizzed around to fend off the blows that were thrown out by Long Bai and Long Chang.
Apparently, those people had cultivated similar orthodox practices. In the combined attacks, every attack complemented one another. There was a leader in every group and the rest of the group members coordinated well with the leader.
Although Long Bai and Long Chang had attacked the Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array vigorously, it remained rooted. Several thousand people attacked fiercely and the power of each group was comparable to that of an Advanced Supreme Being.
The terrifying war destroyed everything in the area as the imposing aura raged around.
After attacking perpetually for 15 minutes, Long Chang and Long Bai failed to prevail over them. They could not escape as the people would attack them whenever they tried to do so.
We are in trouble! Long Chang took human form, and his heart sank. Nether God Court had come prepared and it was difficult for him to run away.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Suddenly, sharp, air-rending sounds broke out as a group of people flew over.
Those people had an imposing aura and the area exploded due to their speed.
Is he here? Long Chang’s heart sank upon seeing Di Yihun among the group of people.
There were seven of them. Other than Di Yihun, First Elder Tian Ganglei from Heavenly Palace, Mo Changfeng from the Ancient Demon State, the top powers from the Undying Court, Starlight Court, Sky Tyrant Court, and Nether God Court were also in the group.
All of them were Supreme Beings and they were the top powers who had led their respective Courts to the Chaotic Holy Court. Di Yihun’s cultivation level was the lowest among them.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, the seven of them were near Long Chang and Long Bai and they looked at the two of them coldly.
Long Chang and Long Bai stopped fighting, and the people who had formed the Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array did likewise.
“It seems to me that all of you have decided to support Di Yihun,” Long Chang said as he looked impassively at the top powers from the five Courts.
“Where is Su Mo?” One of the top powers from the Undying Tribe asked with a frown after he had looked around.
The top power was Helan Hun, who was known as the Immortal Deity. He was the Grand Tribe Elder of the Undying Tribe, which was equivalent to the position of a First Elder.
“He is in Long Chang’s Spacial Device!” Netherworld Emperor said flatly.
Helan Hun and the rest heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that. It had been their constant worry that Su Mo would run away and they were glad that he was still around.
“Thank you for helping me, Netherworld Emperor. I appreciate it very much!” Di Yihun took a step forward and bowed to Netherworld Emperor from afar.
Netherworld Emperor nodded and did not say another word. Their main task was to capture Long Chang and Long Bai or, to be exact, to ask them to hand Su Mo over to them.
“Elder Long Chang, you should be aware of the situation. Please hand Su Mo over!” Di Yihun said sincerely as he cupped his fist and bowed at Long Chang.
Even when Di Yihun had the upper hand, he behaved politely toward Long Chang and that created a good impression on Long Chang.
“Di Yihun, what promise have you given them? Why are they willing to help you?” Long Chang asked, looking less hostile.
Long Chang had to admit that he was impressed by Di Yihun as Di Yihun was outstanding. If not for Long Teng, Long Chang would have helped Di Yihun as well.
“Elder, your greatest wish is to leave the Cosmic World or, I should say, to go beyond the era. I can help you to fulfill your wish!” Di Yihun said calmly and his eyes were full of confidence.
He seemed to be telling them that only he could help them go beyond the era.
“I see!” Long Chang nodded. He knew what Di Yihun had promised them.
“Long Chang, hand Su Mo over! You don’t have a choice!” Mo Changfeng said coldly.
“Long Chang, since things have turned out this way, there’s no point hanging on!” Long Bai told Long Chang as he came beside him.
Since things had turned out this way, they had to hand Su Mo over as they did not have the ability to protect him.
Long Chang looked expressionless. He felt that it was indeed a good idea to hand Su Mo over to them.
Given the current situation, Su Mo and Tuoba Qingyun would not have the ability to contend with Di Yihun in the future.
However, if he were to hand Su Mo over to them, he could not answer to Long Teng.
At that instant, the area seemed to have come to a standstill. Di Yihun, Mo Changfeng, Helan Hun, and the rest of the people squinted their eyes and looked at Long Chang.
Although they were talking nicely to Long Chang to persuade him, they had no qualms about exerting force on him if he refused to hand Su Mo over to them.
Swoosh!
Rumble!
Suddenly, a huge Sword shadow and a giant Palm Print attacked the men from Nether God Court from another direction.
The Sword shadow and the Palm Print were mighty and they contained destructive power. They appeared out of nowhere and blasted the men from Nether God Court forcefully.
“What?”
“Oh no!”
The men who had displayed the Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array were shocked. They immediately shifted their focus to fend off the two powerful attacks.
“Let’s go!” Long Chang called out to Long Bai the minute he saw what had taken place. He left in a hurry, like a ray of light in the opposite direction to where Mo Changfeng and the rest were standing.
“Do you think you can escape?” Netherworld Emperor, who had been keeping watch over the situation, squinted his eyes. Finally, he slashed out, using his palm like a saber.
All of a sudden, a terrifying dark purple Saber Radiance cut across the horizon like a Black Lightning to attack Long Chang.
However, another strange scene took place. A giant fist ray suddenly hit the dark purple Saber Radiance.
Rumble!
There was a loud explosion when the Saber Radiance and fist ray collided together. They turned into terrifying air billows and surged around.
The sudden attack from the fist ray had given Long Chang and Long Bai sufficient time to escape from the besiegement of the Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array.
“Oh no!” When Di Yihun, Mo Changfeng, and the rest of them came to themselves, they realized that it was too late for them to react.
After Long Chang and Long Bai flew out of the besiegement, they flew hastily in the direction of Sky Dragon Court.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Three people followed closely behind Long Chang and Long Bai and they were as fast as the two of them.
However, the three of them were not from Nether God Court, nor were they from Di Yihun’s or Mo Changfeng’s team. They were the Ultimate Supreme Being, Ren De Palace Master, and Di Yuan Palace Master.
None of the men from Netherworld Emperor, Di Yihun, and Mo Changfeng had caught up with them.
They knew that they would not be able to hold Long Chang and Long Bai back after they were out of the Netherworld Catastrophic Ancient Array.
Moreover, with the Ultimate Supreme Being, Ren De Palace Master, and Di Yuan Palace Master to help Long Chang and Long Bai, they would not be able to stop the five of them from leaving although the eight of them were Advanced Supreme Beings.
After all, all of them were Advanced Supreme Beings and their strengths were almost on par with one another’s. It would be difficult to defeat the five of them, let alone to hold them back.
Di Yihun looked pale. Although he was a composed person, he could not help flaring up.
He had almost succeeded in capturing Su Mo. However, the Ultimate Supreme Being, Ren De Palace Master, and Di Yuan Palace Master had foiled his plan!
The Ultimate Supreme Being and Ren De Palace Master had been helping Su Mo and Di Yihun had not expected Di Yuan Palace Master to join them as well!
“Things are getting tougher!” Mo Changfeng said with a sigh.
“I am to be blamed. I have been too careless!” Di Yihun said as he took a deep breath. It was indeed his fault. He should have sent some men to watch over the three people.
His plan had been foiled due to his negligence!
“Let’s talk about it after we get to Netherworld Holy City!” Netherworld Emperor said as he waved his sleeve. Since they had started it, they had to carry on.
Fortunately, the five Courts were powerful enough to rule the Deity Plane and there was no way for Su Mo to escape.
