Chapter 230: Seeking profit and forgetting righteousness, the opportunity for victory appears [Subscribe]

In a situation of seven against five, after the Zhou family killed a late-stage foundation-building cultivator and an early-stage foundation-building cultivator, the late-stage foundation-building cultivator of the Hualong Sect who had escaped before immediately ran away again without saying a word.

When he ran away, the other four people were frightened by Zhou Chun's ferocious power and dared not stay, and they scattered like bees in a swarm of birds.

The Zhou family members were worried about Zhou Chongshan's safety and had no intention of chasing them. They quickly gathered around Zhou Chongshan to check on his injuries.

"Don't worry, I'm fine and I won't die for the time being."

Zhou Chongshan took a healing pill and applied ointment on his wound. He then waved his hand, indicating that everyone should not worry about him.

But his pale face really makes people feel uneasy.

Zhou Chun looked at him for a while, then gently advised: "Second Elder, you should not participate in the battle next time. Just rest on the back of my golden-armored rock turtle!"

After the words fell, Zhou Daoquan on the side also nodded and responded: "Zhengchun is right, Second Elder, your health is important, you should have a good rest."

Seeing this, Zhou Jiarui and Zhou Jiapeng also offered words of comfort.

"Okay, then I'll take a rest first. You guys have worked so hard."

Zhou Chongshan looked at the four people who were worried, and finally nodded, and stopped trying to be stubborn.

So Zhou Chun let the golden-armored rock turtle carry Zhou Chongshan and fly, and the group continued to set off and kill towards the gap they came from.

At this time, many Jingguo monks, like them, rushed to various places of the Black Dragon branch and burned, killed and looted. Fires and thick smoke were seen in many places in the mountains.

Fortunately, the terrain inside the Black Dragon Branch is special, with each mountain peak separated by rivers. Otherwise, if the fire spread on all sides, most of the mountain gate would be burned to the ground.

The monks of the Hualong Sect also became firefighters at this moment, chasing and intercepting the monks who rushed into the mountain gate.

But their numbers are smaller than those of the Jingguo monks, so how could they possibly ensure that not a single one was missed?

What's more, the base of the protective formation needs someone to guard it.

So when Zhou Chun and his men fought back, there were not many monks from both sides fighting near the gap. The monks from both sides had already dispersed and opened up small battlefields everywhere to fight.

The place where the fighting was most intense was where the formation bases were located.

"Uncle Eleven, you escort the Second Elder back to the camp first, and we will stay here to meet the Grand Elder."

Zhou Chun glanced around, observed the situation on the battlefields, and quickly made new arrangements.

Hearing his plan, Zhou Chongshan couldn't help but frown and said, "It's not appropriate to retreat at this time. If we are held accountable, it will be a crime of desertion!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately shook his head and said, "The fact that our Zhou family led the charge before is enough to prove that we are not the cowardly type. With the corpses and relics of the enemy monks we captured before as evidence, no one can say anything to us!"

"Besides, Second Elder, you are indeed seriously injured, so it is reasonable for you to retreat now!"

After he finished speaking, Zhou Daoquan also nodded and said, "Zhengchun is right. Second Elder, you have retreated safely, so we can have no worries."

The implication is that if Zhou Chongshan stays at this time, it will reduce the team's combat effectiveness.

This left Zhou Chongshan speechless.

He could only sigh softly and said, "Okay, then I will retreat first. You guys should also pay attention to your safety!"

Then, under the escort of Zhou Jiarui, he left the Black Dragon Branch Mountain Gate.

After witnessing the two of them successfully retreat, Zhou Chun and the other two observed the battlefield and immediately rushed towards a nearby battlefield.

Near a mountain peak inside the Black Dragon Branch Mountain Gate, eight Jingguo foundation-building monks were seen fighting fiercely with seven Hualong Sect foundation-building monks.

Although they had the advantage in numbers, because the seven Hualong Sect's foundation-building monks were in better condition and had the help of more than twenty Qi Refining monks, the Jingguo monks were not able to gain much advantage and could only look for opportunities to kill some Qi Refining monks.

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the battlefield.

"Friend Wang, Friend Sun, I am here to help you!"

Before he finished speaking, a heroic young man in a golden robe came flying towards them riding a giant silver-white python, followed by a middle-aged man riding a flying crane and a flying eagle on his left and right.

Seeing this scene, Wang Zhixiong, who was fighting a powerful enemy, was delighted and immediately responded loudly: "Thank you all for your help, fellow Taoists from the Zhou family. I would like to thank you very much!"

It turned out that these eight Jingguo foundation-building monks were from the Wang family of Hongyao Valley and the Sun family of Jinfengling.

The cultivators from these two families knew that their strength was not as strong as that of the Zhou family, so they banded together after breaking into the Black Dragon branch.

Zhou Chun was observing around just now, and happened to see Wang Zhixiong performing a secret technique that he had used at the "Conference of a Hundred Races" across several mountains. He then discovered their presence and brought people over to help in time.

At this moment, as the three Zhou family members charged into the battlefield, three of the seven Hualong Sect foundation-building cultivators were quickly killed, and the remaining four were so frightened that they fled in panic.

Seeing this, the three members of the Zhou family and Wang Zhixiong and others did not chase after them, but just landed on the ground and discussed their respective situations.

During the conversation, Wang Zhixiong pointed to a majestic peak not far away and said, "There is a cave on that mountain that is protected by a formation. It is very likely the cave of a certain guardian of the Hualong Sect. Brother Zhou, are you interested in joining us to investigate?"

After he finished saying this, Zhou Chun keenly noticed that several other Wang family foundation-building cultivators and Sun family cultivators were somewhat unhappy, but due to his status and the help the Zhou family had just given them, they did not say anything.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Chun's mind turned, and he quickly shook his head and said: "Since this is the opportunity for you, Wang Daoyou, then I will not take it away. Let's look for another opportunity!"

Unexpectedly, Wang Zhixiong continued to invite him sincerely, "You are too polite, Brother Zhou. Just because of your help just now, you should have a share of the benefits in the cave. Moreover, the caves of the Purple Mansion cultivators are protected by extraordinary formations. If we rely on just a few people, I am afraid it will be difficult to break the formation protecting the cave in a short time!"

"I appreciate your kindness, Mr. Wang, but I really don't need it."

Zhou Chun shook his head and declined his kindness again.

Seeing that he was so determined not to accept it, Wang Zhixiong did not try to persuade him any further. He immediately separated two of the three fallen bodies of the Hualong Sect monks and let Zhou Chun take them away as a token of gratitude for their assistance.

This time Zhou Chun didn't refuse. He packed up his things and left with his men.

After Zhou Chun and the others left, a cultivator from the Wang family behind Wang Zhixiong complained to him with dissatisfaction, "Why did you insist on inviting Zhou Zhengchun? We were the ones who discovered the cave, why should we let them have a share?"

When Wang Zhixiong heard this, his eyes twitched, but he did not answer the words of the family elder. Instead, he looked at Sun Zhongping, the head of the Sun family, and asked, "Daoyou Sun, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Zhongping immediately shook his head and said, "I have nothing to say. After the war is over, I will personally go to Daoist Brother Zhou to express my gratitude."

"Then how about we go together then?"

Wang Zhixiong nodded and made an appointment.

Sun Zhongping naturally would not refuse and agreed immediately.

Then Wang Zhixiong waved his hand and led everyone to the location of the cave. However, he did not respond to the complaint of the Wang family elder from beginning to end.

This kind of disregard made the elder of the Wang family look very ugly.

But with outsiders present, he couldn't say anything more radical and make a fool of himself, so he had to hold his breath and follow.

Little did he know that Wang Zhixiong didn't bother with him because there were outsiders present.

Otherwise, I would be so angry that I would curse him.

On the other side, after Zhou Chun and the others left, Zhou Jiapeng also said with an unhappy face: "Those guys in the Wang family are really heartless. We are helping them with good intentions, but they are still on guard against us, as if we are helping them just for their benefit!"

He naturally also saw the defensiveness of those Wang family monks, but he was not able to confront them in person at first.

Zhou Chun, who heard what he said, said calmly: "Fellow Daoist Wang Zhixiong still has some vision. With him, the Wang family will not be too bad!"

"There are many people in the world of immortal cultivation who forget their principles when they see profit. There is no need to be angry with them."

Zhou Daoquan also interjected and said something, but he didn't take the reactions of those Wang family cultivators to heart.

After the two of them said this, Zhou Jiapeng decided not to dwell on the matter any longer, as that would make him appear narrow-minded.

So I changed the subject and asked, "Where are we going next?"

"According to the time, we have been here for more than half an hour. For safety reasons, we should stop running around and go check on the Grand Elders first!"

Zhou Chun pondered for a moment and then expressed his own opinion.

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Daoquan and said, "Third Elder, what do you think?"

"I don't have any opinion. Zhengchun, you make the decision."

Zhou Daoquan shook his head, indicating that he had no objection.

And Zhou Jiapeng would naturally not object.

Therefore, the three of them immediately changed direction and rushed towards where Zhou Mingde was.

Compared to Zhou Chun and other Foundation Establishment cultivators who are free to move around, Zhou Mingde and other Purple Mansion cultivators are not that free.

They all received orders to attack the base of the Black Dragon branch's protective formation with all their might, and to destroy two or three bases so that the protective formation could no longer operate smoothly.

However, the Hualong Sect also attaches great importance to the protection of the formation base, and almost all the guardians are stationed at various formation bases.

Although a gap had been made in the protective formation at this time, a formation of this level could still exert considerable power as long as it was not completely destroyed.

With the help of the power of the formation, the guardians of the Hualong Sect were still able to firmly defend the base of the formation even though their number was much smaller than the Purple Mansion Stage cultivators on the Jingguo side.

When Zhou Chun and his companions arrived near the battlefield where Zhou Mingde was, they saw Zhou Mingde and eight other Purple Mansion Stage cultivators surrounding a black light shield and attacking fiercely.

And inside the black light shield, the four guardians of the Hualong Sect were guarding the four directions, constantly using magical weapons and casting spells to resist the attacks of Zhou Mingde and others, and firmly guarding a black flag in the middle that was more than ten feet high.

That black light shield was created by the power of the black flag.

Zhou Chun watched from a distance for a while and found that the attacks of Zhou Mingde and others had no effect on the light shield, but the effect was indeed not very good.

He estimated that without the addition of stronger forces, the chances of Zhou Mingde and others breaking the light shield would be less than 10%.

After watching for a while, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the Second Elder was injured, otherwise if he were here, he might be able to provide some useful suggestions to the Supreme Elders!"

Zhou Chongshan's attainment in formation was extremely high. They were able to break the formation and pick the elixirs so easily before, thanks to him finding the flaws in the formation's operation.

But now he was seriously injured and had to withdraw from the battle.

"Just wait. As long as the Grand Elder is fine, we just need to take care of ourselves."

As Zhou Chun spoke, he stuffed a Huiyuan Pill into his pocket and silently refined the pill to restore his magic power.

Seeing this, Zhou Daoquan and Zhou Jiapeng also followed suit.

After waiting for about another quarter of an hour, a powerful aura suddenly alarmed Zhou Chun and the other two.

They looked up and saw a huge golden axe, wielded by a Moon Wheel Sect warrior, fiercely chopping down the black light shield.

With just this one move, cracks appeared on the black light shield that had been unbreakable before.

But as the black flag inside shook slightly, a black light fell on the light shield and quickly repaired the cracks.

"Have you even used the talisman?"

Zhou Chun stared at the giant golden axe and instantly recognized its origin.

And as if they had discussed it beforehand, after the giant golden axe appeared, a Taoist from Qinglian Temple soon sacrificed a flying sword talisman, which turned into a silver flying sword and fiercely attacked the black light shield.

Under the attack of the two talismans, the axe and the sword, the speed at which the cracks on the black light shield were repaired could not keep up with the speed of the cracking.

Cracks continued to appear, as if the black light shield would shatter at any time.

The four guardians of the Dragon Transformation Sect inside all changed their expressions when they saw this.

Then a guardian of the Dragon Transformation Sect took out a talisman and activated it, transforming it into a black coiled dragon iron staff and a huge golden axe, which fought against each other.

With one less talisman attack away, the black light shield finally stabilized.

But at this moment, a loud bang suddenly sounded from somewhere in the distance.

Then the black flag inside the black light shield dimmed, as if it was affected by something, and it stopped releasing black light to repair the light shield.

good chance!
When Zhou Mingde and others saw this scene, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Then two Purple Mansion cultivators took out their third-order talismans and activated them to attack the black light shield. The Taoist from Qinglian Temple who was controlling the silver flying sword talisman pushed the power of the talisman to its maximum, and it fell heavily on the black light shield like a silver meteor.

Bang!
With a loud bang, the black light shield was finally shattered by the silver flying sword talisman.

"Destroy that formation flag first!"

A loud shout came from the mouth of the Purple Mansion cultivator who was wielding a giant golden axe, and then several third-level magic weapons blasted towards the black flag inserted on the base of the formation.
