Chapter 76: Undercurrents Surge

  At the same time that Lu Qing and the others were trapped in the formation, the five peak masters of the Zongmen Purple Mist Hall, led by Luo Qianfeng, had all arrived. The five people stood quietly, facing the direction of the Purple Mist Ancestor's portrait hanging inside the main hall, their faces filled with an indescribable excitement. These five people should have long been able to control their emotions and not show any joy or anger on their faces at their current level of cultivation, but at this moment, they seemed to be completely unable to control their expressions.

  Facing the portrait of the ancestor, he was a middle-aged man wearing a purple shirt, with a head of strange purple hair like clouds and mist, behind him was a four-foot-long purple-gold sword, although it was just painted on paper, but the momentum of the top swordsman was evident, just facing it, even those with weak cultivation would be deprived of their spirit.

  At this moment, the other four people, including Lu Qing's master Xuanqing, were staring intently at Laoqian Peak in front of them. They saw that he was facing the ancestral portrait with his mouth moving slightly, but no sound could be heard, apparently communicating with someone through divine sense transmission.

  A moment later, Lu Qianfeng turned around, his voice low and husky, yet with a hint of certainty: "I've already reported to Master Shu. With the news and descriptions that just came from Lu Ri City, Master Shu is certain that thing will definitely appear there."

  Having obtained Luo Qianfeng's affirmation, the breathing of the other four people became heavy. Xuan Qing's appearance at this moment had completely lost its usual calmness. He stared tightly at Luo Qianfeng and said: "What does the Sect Master mean by that?"

  "Instruct the people below to seal off all information immediately, and we five will set out at once, in case any other variables occur. This is a rare opportunity for our Purple Mist Sect that comes only once in a thousand years."

  "Let's go!"

  With a loud roar from Lu Qianfeng, the five people instantly transformed into five sword lights of different colors and rose into the sky, flying towards the direction of Luoshen City.

  At this time, in a civilian house on the outskirts of Luoshen City, two people were talking to each other. If Lu Qing were here at this moment, he would recognize that these two people were Taiyun and Gong Yangyu. At this time, Gong Yangyu's eyes were gloomy, listening to the noisy footsteps outside the door, saying: "Master brother, how is the news?"

  Tai Yun's mouth curled up in a barely perceptible sneer, saying: "The news has already been passed on, I believe someone will come rushing over there soon. At that time, you and I can not only smoothly escape from the Purple Mist Sect, but also easily obtain power and status. This time we've done a great deed."

  "Ah," nodded, Gong Yang said in a harsh tone, "I heard that those two kids were trapped in his sword array at the same time. It's heaven's will to kill him, I wonder how he'll escape this time."

  When Taiyun heard Gong Yangyu say this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes: "Yes, especially that little brat Duan Qingyun. Ever since he entered the sect, he's been at odds with me. If it weren't for his family backing him, I would have... Hmph, but he won't live much longer either."

  The two of them exchanged a glance and burst out laughing at the same time. A chill began to spread through the room.

  Wolf's Tooth Mountain, within the Sword Formation.

  "You said you are the master of the Lu family in Chaoyang Town!" The woman's voice suddenly rose a lot, and then let out a shrill laugh. "Good! Master Lu, didn't expect that your descendant would fall into my hands today. Don't worry, I will slowly let him bleed to death, drop by drop, and let him fully savor the taste of death."

  After hearing this, Lu Qing knew that something was wrong. Judging from the woman's tone, it seemed like she had a grudge against his ancestors, otherwise she wouldn't have reacted so fiercely and spoken such harsh words.

  The woman's voice rose again, "You little brat, the aura of blood on you is different from his, you are not a member of the Lu family. I'll spare your life today, scram!"

  Then, Duan Qingyun, who was originally standing, felt a surge of invisible and enormous force coming from the void, and he instantly lost control and flew backward, and then in mid-air, the air rippled, and Duan Qingyun's figure disappeared into it.

  Seeing this scene, Lu Qing couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. At least in his eyes, Duan Qingyun had managed to save one life. However, all the anger now seemed to be concentrated on himself.

  "Hmph, you little brat can continue to struggle for now. There's still half a time unit left. Once I've set everything up, I'll come and take your blood as sacrifice. And when I succeed, it will be the time of bloodbath for Purple Mist Five Peaks! Wait, how detestable! They actually called in reinforcements. If it weren't for my setup being imminent, I wouldn't have been able to spare a hand, I would've killed that group of people first!" The woman's voice then faded away.

  Outside the sword array, the Luoshen Feather group was not idle at this moment. Because shortly after Nie Qingtian left, a large number of wolves with over a thousand troops launched an attack on them one after another. There were even two wolf kings among them, and more than ten wolf guards. Looking around, the number of wolves stretched to both sides of the mountain forest, extending deep into the mountains where the end could not be seen.

  A group of people were surrounded by a pack of wolves in front of the sword formation, unable to retreat and could only passively defend themselves. However, with the strength of Rakushinba and others, as long as there were no third-tier or higher spiritual beasts mobilized, just these highest two-tiered wolf kings would not be able to do anything to them.

  Scorching ice and cold, the sword energy of several clans shot forward, blasting the wolf pack into a pile of minced meat. In less than half an hour, more than 800 wolf corpses were left in front of everyone, including several first-class Wolf Guards and one second-class Wolf King. However, the bloody scene only further provoked the ferocity of the wolves. The howling of the wolves continued to rise and fall, making Lu Xiang and others wonder if all the wolves within tens of miles had arrived. Although they had already killed so many, it seemed that there were still as many as before when they looked around.

  Suddenly, the void behind several people fluctuated, and Du Qiong Yun's huge figure was thrown out, falling at the feet of several people. Yu Ji Hua Xin was overjoyed, hastily going forward to pull him up, saying: "Fatty, where is Lu Qing?"

  "Lu Qing?" Duan Qingyun was a bit dizzy, the great force just now had almost knocked him unconscious, but he immediately came to and shouted: "Lu Qing is still inside! There's a powerful madwoman in there who wants to use Lu Qing's blood for sacrifice!"

  "Blood sacrifice!" Yi Rouyu suddenly exclaimed, her face losing all its color.

  "What is a blood sacrifice?" Luoxin Yu and several others swung out with their swords to block the wolf pack, then turned back to ask.

  "Blood Sacrifice, I once read about it in a book on array classification at the Hidden Book Pavilion on the peak. In this world, apart from some orthodox arrays that utilize the power of heaven and earth, there are also some cruel sword arrays. Among them is the Blood Sacrifice, which is also referred to as an Evil Sword Array. Generally, it requires a large amount of fresh blood to set up the array pattern, and finally, at least one swordsman above the Sword Origin Realm is needed for the blood sacrifice. Once the array is formed, everything within a hundred miles will wither and perish, and the vital energy will be exhausted!"

  "What?!"

  Several people's faces changed color at the same time, and this place is close to Luoshen City. In this way, the range of the sword array almost covers more than 20% of the sect's territory. If the sword array is set up, I'm afraid that Luoshen City and the surrounding tens of thousands of sect members will suffer heavy casualties.

  "Damn it, who is this woman?" Liefeng's eyes blazed with endless fury. At this moment, he no longer cared about his past grievances with Lu Qing in the sword array, because his family had lived in Luoshen City for a thousand years and once this sword array was formed, his family would not be able to escape disaster either.

  "Look quickly—" Suddenly, Su Yun, who was waving her long sword and releasing her sword energy on one side, exclaimed in a surprised tone.

  "It's the Sect Masters!" Yu and several others looked up, in the direction of the distant purple misty peaks of Wudang Mountain. Five dazzling sword lights shot out from afar, at the same time, a loud rumbling sound echoed through the sky. That was the sound of the powerful sword auras of the five people tearing through the air, creating a thunder-like roar.

  At this moment, the five peak masters of Zixia Peak have all taken action. At this moment, Luoxin Yu and others also let out a sigh of relief, after all, there are five sword soul realm swordsmen here, such powerful strength can only be brought out by their Zixia Sect within a thousand miles.

  The sword light flashed like lightning, and seemed to fall from the sky like a meteor, clearly the five men had discovered the trail of Luo Xin Yu and the others. In just over ten breaths' time, the five men had almost traversed several li of distance and arrived above them.

  "Get out, you beast!"

  When the first drop of Qianfeng looked at the wolf pack below, a purple-gold light burst out from his eyes, as if it were substantial. At the same time, he pointed his sword with both hands and suddenly dozens of purple-gold sword auras wrapped in intense golden flames fell down, like a landslide or an earthquake. The sword auras struck the wolf pack with a deafening crash, countless rocks and soil shattered and scattered, and the wolf pack let out mournful howls. Meanwhile, the air was filled with a fiery breath.

  Each sword aura that struck the ground created a crater several meters in diameter, and even the mud was ignited by the scorching golden flames on the sword aura. The long-toothed wolves that failed to escape were instantly vaporized into a wisp of smoke upon contact with the flames. With dozens of sword auras striking down, the waist of Wolf Tooth Mountain seemed to have been torn open, revealing a gaping wound. The surrounding trees were also reduced to ashes by the radiating golden flames.

  It seems that it was the first time they saw Zhong Zhuo's Thousand Peaks come out, except for Luo Xin Yu, everyone else was stunned by such momentum. This is the strength of a Jian Xing realm swordsman. Just a few sword auras shot out casually from the air sword finger caused such destruction. If he were to go all out, it's likely that he could really blast this entire mountain apart.

  As a newcomer, I'm still taking my first steps, so it's impossible to be perfect. No matter what book it is, it can't possibly cater to everyone's taste. So, I hope that when you're writing your reviews, you won't use overly harsh language. Can't we all just get along peacefully?

  Additionally, a suggestion building has been built. If you have any suggestions, please go and propose them. I will see to it that explanations are made. Finally, thank you all for your continued support!
