MJWCATFPITWOC Chapter 84
by VolareChapter 84 Chapter 84 Sect Leader
“Brother… why are you all here?” Li Juemu was shocked to see these famous figures in the cultivation world in front of him.
Li Yuan looked down slightly: “Tell me, how did a trial turn into this?”
Ling Yi, who was on the side, was no longer the same as she was ten years ago. Her figure in the capable attire brought out the momentum of the Conghua Sect Leader even more. She looked down, her gaze landing on a familiar face, and her expression instantly became serious: “You, look at that.”
Fu Lingxuan followed her line of sight. The moment he saw the stone statue, his brows furrowed, and his gaze shifted to Bai Guchen on the statue’s shoulder. The face that he would recognize even if it turned to ashes, the veins on his neck suddenly tightened: “Why are you here?”
Fu Lingxuan circulated his dantian, his voice reverberating for a hundred miles, every word clear and distinct.
Bai Guchen chuckled as if he had heard something ridiculous: “Why can’t I be here? Or are you saying, you thought I would be killed by Shen Yucheng?”
These words undoubtedly hit their sore spot hard. For the past ten years, Fu Lingxuan had been unable to find any news about Shen Yucheng. He could only comfort himself that Shen Yucheng had sacrificed himself for the Lingfeng Sect in order to completely erase Bai Guchen’s existence.
But now that Bai Guchen appeared in front of him in such a swaggering manner, it meant…
Fu Lingxuan’s heart sank abruptly.
He remembered that Mo Yifeng had also participated in this trial. He had only received Li Yuan’s message saying that something had gone wrong with the trial, and rushed over in a hurry. He originally thought that with Mo Yifeng around, nothing major should happen, but now he had been standing here for a long time, and he hadn’t even seen Mo Yifeng’s shadow.
“Where’s Mo Yifeng?” he asked Li Juemu in a deep voice.
Before he could even answer, Fu Lingxuan suddenly felt something was wrong. His body instinctively dodged, just barely avoiding a sharp needle. The needle brushed past his cheek. If he had been a moment slower, his face would have had several needle holes by now.
Bai Guchen’s laughter came from below, with a hint of mockery: “Not bad, you can still dodge that attack. Then let’s have some fun.”
Fu Lingxuan didn’t bother to pay attention to him, and said coldly, “Where is Mo Yifeng?”
Bai Guchen chuckled: “Defeat me, and I might tell you.”
Fu Lingxuan’s face was as dark as water. He looked at Li Yuan and Ling Yi on the side, and the two nodded tacitly.
Ling Yi said indifferently: “Go ahead. This person should have been taken care of ten years ago. If he is not eliminated now, he will become a disaster for the cultivation world sooner or later.”
Li Yuan reached out and took out a talisman: “Fu Lingxuan, you attack, I’ll assist.”
Bai Guchen was still smiling, provoking: “What’s the matter? Have you discussed it yet? Or are you saying that you few Nascent Soul stage cultivators don’t even dare to take on me alone?”
However, he was still laughing at this moment, and the next second, the smile froze on his face. His body suddenly stiffened, unable to move.
Bai Guchen’s pupils trembled slightly, and only his eyeballs could still move. He looked down and saw a black formation appearing under his feet, shining black, and one could tell at a glance that this formation contained profound spiritual power.
He immediately guessed who cast the spell, and suddenly raised his head, staring at Fu Lingxuan.
Fu Lingxuan looked down at him coldly, like a king descending to the world, as if at this moment he was the master of this battle.
Cold sweat dripped from Bai Guchen’s forehead. He gritted his teeth and laboriously hooked his fingers.
“Whoosh—”
The vibration spread in all directions, and white smoke rose up. The disciples on the ground all looked up in a daze. That strike was enough to be fatal.
Li Juemu exclaimed: “Senior Fu!”
The corners of his mouth curled up in a smile, and the black formation under his feet had been broken. At the same time, he turned sideways and easily blocked the attack from the left, his gaze turning to Ling Yi, and smiled: “I knew my left side was my weakness, so I paid more attention to it.”
Ling Yi immediately flipped back after failing to strike. Ling Yi said to the pile of white smoke: “How long do you want to lie down? Get up quickly.”
However, no one responded.
Ling Yi inadvertently glanced at the high altitude where Fu Lingxuan had been just now. At the same position on the ground, there was only a pool of blood.
Bai Guchen laughed loudly: “Now only you are left, what’s the matter? Are you afraid?”
He sneered and ordered the stone statue to reach out and grab Ling Yi.
However, the stone statue did not move.
Bai Guchen’s heart jumped suddenly, and he had a bad premonition. He suddenly looked down and saw that the stone statue’s legs were tightly bound at some point. As long as it moved, it would fall directly.
Bai Guchen frowned: “When…”
He couldn’t understand, what kind of magic weapon in the world could bind this huge stone statue so that it couldn’t move?
“So, this uses my talisman.”
As if hearing his inner voice, a low voice came from his ear. He suddenly turned his head, and Li Yuan was smiling brightly.
At the same time, with the stone statue unable to move, a huge yellow formation rose in the sky, and the hard shell of the stone statue began to fall off layer by layer.
Bai Guchen didn’t know what means they used, but he only knew that Fu Lingxuan hadn’t been shattered just now, and that bloodstain was just a blindfold.
“Damn it!” he roared, gritting his teeth. As the stone statue shattered, he quickly formed a seal with both palms, and his spiritual power surged, condensing a new stone statue out of thin air. He sneered: “It’s useless, no matter how much you destroy, I will create more. Let’s see if you can destroy it faster, or I can create it faster.”
Li Yuan was so angry when he saw this that he almost crushed his back molars.
The stones scattered in the air fell like meteorites, and the disciples dodged in panic. Li Yuan said in a deep voice: “Li Juemu, take care of the disciples, they will be here soon.”
Li Juemu was stunned: “They?”
Li Yuan gritted his teeth and took Bai Guchen’s attack, replying with difficulty: “Did you really think that the three of us would come alone? I have already notified the others in the sect, it’s just that we came quickly and took the first step.”
The three took turns attacking Bai Guchen, but the other party used treacherous methods to evade, and even controlled the villagers below to attack the disciples, dragging the situation into chaos.
Those villagers were driven by Bai Guchen’s spiritual power, and their attacks became unusually fierce, every move fatal. A disciple was almost pierced through the heart by a sharp dagger. After narrowly avoiding it, he was still in shock.
Li Juemu tried his best to protect the disciples, and his body was already covered with several wounds, and blood dripped down his clothes. Li Yuan’s heart trembled slightly when he saw this, so he was distracted and took a few attacks from Bai Guchen head-on.
Bai Guchen noticed this flaw, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile: “What’s the matter? Are you restless because your brother is injured?”
Li Yuan was speechless for a while, and could only calm down and continue to attack.
At this moment, Fu Lingxuan’s voice sounded: “Cut!”
Li Juemu was stunned for a moment and didn’t react for a while. Fu Lingxuan spoke again, his tone cold: “They are controlled by others, their actions are stiff, they are not like living people, they should be dead people. In that case, just cut them down! People cannot be resurrected after death, what’s the point of keeping them?”
Bai Guchen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then laughed, even raising his hand to cover his face, his shoulders trembling with laughter: “As expected of the Deputy Sect Leader, the experience is indeed on a different level! Unlike some people who are still showing unnecessary compassion, especially that one just now, who would rather exhaust his own spiritual power than take action against the villagers, what an idiot.”
Hearing this, Fu Lingxuan’s gaze swept over the disciples.
He didn’t think about it carefully just now, but now that Bai Guchen pointed it out, he realized that these disciples were able to withstand Bai Guchen’s attacks unharmed until they arrived?
Just thinking about it, he knew that this was absolutely impossible.
Unless Bai Guchen suddenly changed his nature, became compassionate, and let these disciples go.
But this was even more of a fantasy.
Therefore, in other words, before they arrived, there must have been someone secretly protecting these disciples.
But Fu Lingxuan didn’t think this person would be Mo Yifeng.
He stared at Bai Guchen, and the battle from ten years ago appeared in his mind. The only difference was that this time, there was one less person.
Or was all of this already a premeditated part of the plan…
Bai Guchen looked at the change in Fu Lingxuan’s eyes: “Smart people are indeed different… they noticed it so quickly.”
He smiled, his tone meaningful: “Want to know where he is?”
As soon as this was said, everyone else looked blank, and Ling Yi frowned and asked: “Hey, Fu Lingxuan, what does he mean by this?”
Fu Lingxuan’s face was gloomy and he didn’t answer.
Seeing this, Bai Guchen smiled even more: “Don’t worry, if you want to see him, you have to see if you have the life to do so.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the earth trembled violently, as if many things were about to break out of the ground from inside. Everyone looked around vigilantly.
Li Yuan realized that something was wrong and shouted: “Fu Lingxuan!”
Fu Lingxuan decisively formed a seal with both hands and instantly cast a huge magic formation, forcibly suppressing the underground movement. The vibration gradually subsided, and the surroundings returned to silence.
Seeing this, Bai Guchen whistled with interest: “As expected of a genius formation cultivator, your methods are indeed powerful.”
However, the next second, Fu Lingxuan’s face suddenly changed, his throat felt sweet, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Bai Guchen actually took advantage of his concentration on opening the formation to give him a heavy punch!
Fu Lingxuan only felt as if his internal organs had been shattered, and severe pain swept through his body. He couldn’t stabilize his body and fell to the ground at high speed.
Ling Yi and Li Yuan exclaimed and were about to fly to catch him, but at this moment, an unparalleled spiritual pressure suddenly surged from behind.
Before they could turn their heads, they were suppressed to the ground by this pressure.
Boom!
The ground trembled and cracks spread out.
Li Yuan endured the severe pain and opened his eyes. What came into view were two huge stone statues pressing on them.
He then realized that Bai Guchen could summon stone statues anytime and anywhere. This ability was almost cheating, completely ignoring space and obstacles, and could launch surprise attacks at will!
Ling Yi was bleeding from her mouth from being suppressed. Li Yuan’s voice was hoarse: “Are you okay…”
Ling Yi gritted her teeth and said in a low voice: “The ribs on the right… are probably broken. Do you think… it counts as okay?”
Li Yuan: “…”
Bai Guchen caught the falling Fu Lingxuan. He looked down at the Deputy Sect Leader of the Lingfeng Sect, who was now breathing erratically, his spiritual power was weakening, and he had completely lost his fighting ability. He couldn’t help but laugh out loud: “You guys are all dignified sect leader-level figures! It’s a pity that before your dogs arrive, you should go to the underworld to explore the way first.”
He sneered, raised his hand and threw Fu Lingxuan to the ground.
The giant palms of the stone statues slightly deformed, instantly turning into sharp stone cones, pointing directly at the throats of the three.
A bloodthirsty red light flashed in Bai Guchen’s eyes, and his killing intent was undisguised.
Seeing this, Li Juemu’s heart tightened suddenly. He desperately broke through the encirclement of the villagers and ran madly towards the three: “No—!!”
However, Bai Guchen didn’t stop, and waved his palm down suddenly, and the stone cones fell in response, piercing in fiercely.
Puchi!
Blood splattered everywhere.
