Chapter 98 Fighting
"Your master, no, my master, seems to be in danger." Cheng Zhishun wanted to retort, but immediately changed his tune, saying that his master was closer to him.

However, there is indeed some minor danger on Ghost Moon True Lord's side.

A group of Nascent Soul cultivators and eighth- or ninth-tier demon kings encountered another group of Core Formation and Nascent Soul sword cultivators the moment they landed.

"Who goes there, daring to trespass into my Sword Sect's Sword Testing Forest?" The question and the sword light arrived simultaneously.

The other person said, "Junior brother, let's take it down first."

Then, sword lights came from several directions, and Cen Che, Gui Yue and the others had to defend themselves while saying, "Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand, we mistakenly came to this place."

They've already started fighting, who's going to have any misunderstandings with you? Let's talk about it after the fight is over.

Especially if someone is undergoing trials in their own sect's secret area and an outsider suddenly arrives, who else would they attack if not them?

This battle was entirely because the Dragon King forgot that hundreds of thousands of years had passed—not just a few decades—and the landing island she had chosen back then had now become part of the mainland.

Moreover, it has become a training ground for sects in this realm. Coincidentally, a mid-level disciple of that sect happened to be here today to test the power of his natal sword.

At this moment, the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Sword Sect saw the ninth-tier demon cultivator and his eyes lit up with joy. "Senior brother, how about extracting a few dragon tendons to refine into your natal sword?"

"Excellent, there is also a ninth-tier eagle wing bone, which can greatly increase the sword's speed."

"Senior sister, I want a fox fur shawl."

The demon king of the Taiyuan Realm had barely landed and was still reeling from the dizziness of the long teleportation when he was attacked and discussed being skinned and dismembered. How could he possibly endure that?

Some ninth-level cultivators, used to lording it over others, don't think things through like cultivators do, and therefore retaliate more fiercely.

You know what, you really have to admit, Ao Qi and Ao Chen, those ninth-tier fighters, are quite formidable.

They couldn't defeat the array of Nascent Soul cultivators from the Taiyuan Realm, but they were able to severely injure several Nascent Soul sword cultivators who were fighting one-on-one and trying to extract their dragon tendons, and even took one of them hostage.

And the first question he asked was, "Which realm is this?"

"Ao Chen, shut up! Don't hurt anyone anymore!" Elder Wo Xiang was furious. "You fool, you exposed yourself the moment you opened your mouth."

The cultivators, upon hearing that this was the territory of a sect, all held back their strength in their attacks.

At this moment, the Great Elder of the Demon Clan, Fire Qilin, quickly sent a message to all the demons, telling them not to say anything more.

Everyone knew in their hearts that the Dragon King's promise of a three-month deadline was probably unreliable.

The moment the teleportation was activated, the dragon bracelets that had been forcibly fastened to everyone's wrists by the Dragon Palace's magic array broke off when everyone was thrown out of the teleportation portal.

This means that the Dragon King can no longer control their return date, and it's uncertain whether the teleportation node behind them will still be usable.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of the Sword Sect had long since discovered that these twenty-odd Nascent Soul cultivators were formidable fighters, and the dozens of demon cultivators were also exceptionally powerful, making it quite difficult for them to fight.

Upon hearing Ao Chen's words, he immediately asked, "An otherworldly cultivator?"

"Notify Master."

"Quickly call the elder."

Beating the younger ones attracted the older ones, and several Nascent Soul stage Dao Lords arrived in the blink of an eye.

Logically, above the Nascent Soul stage is the Deity Transformation stage, after which comes the Void Refining stage, above which is the Body Integration stage, then the Great Ascension stage, and finally one can transcend the Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to become an immortal.

Therefore, Cen Che, Gui Yue, and other late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators were no match for the Fusion Stage cultivator. They were instantly suppressed by the pressure and unable to retaliate.

"Where do you come from?" A deep voice from a Nascent Soul Dao Lord boomed in their ears, making the cultivators of the Taiyuan Realm feel pain in their bones.

The Nascent Soul cultivators and demon kings hadn't been bent over like this in many years, except for the Dragon King.

"Senior, we come from the Taiyuan Realm. When we were exploring a secret area, we were accidentally teleported here." Elder Wo Xiang, as the Grand Elder of the Alliance, took the initiative to reply despite the oppressive aura.

"Taiyuan Realm?" The several Nascent Soul Dao Lords looked at each other, and after remembering where that was, they quickly began to discuss it.

When asked questions again, it seemed that the people of the Taiyuan Realm, who cultivated demons and demons, were working in perfect harmony, and what they said was not entirely true.

As a result, this group of strangers were confined to a place where spirits were forbidden, awaiting an audience with the Mahayana Daoist Master.

The Sword Sect acted fairly well, and did not confiscate their storage tools.

It was at this moment that Ghost Moon True Lord discovered that the jade amulet his junior disciple had given him had cracked, and he couldn't help but sigh.

This talisman was the first magical artifact refined by Zhi Shun, and it was decorated with special runes, showing that a great deal of effort was put into it.

When the jade cracked, Cheng Zhishun had some mental connection to it, which was probably related to his active mind while he was in the Dragon Clan's secret territory.

Shen Suiren offered sound advice: "You can't help if there's danger, so you should hurry up and get some good treasures to increase your own strength."

"That's all I can do, but I still feel uneasy."

You don't want me to lose focus and everyone get electrocuted again, right? Let's switch back." Cheng Zhishun played the emotional card.

But Shen Suiren firmly refused to switch with him: "You can find someone else to switch with."

He stopped and turned to look at his teammates, and they all shook their heads. Nobody was like him, vying to be the first to clear the minefield.

The fire fox following behind was exhausted and begged them to hurry up: "We're almost there, smell the fragrance."

"I can't smell it." Cheng Zhishun said this, but he quickened his pace. There were no spiritual fruits ahead, so he ate the fire fox raw.

He was destined not to eat it. After walking for another fifteen minutes, a vast expanse of emerald green leaves and lightning bolts of various colors, including white, silver, gold, red, and purple, suddenly came into view. The brilliance and splendor of the colors were beyond words.

Shen Suiren noticed that although there were only twenty-eight trees in total, their lush canopies were connected by flashing lightning, giving the impression of seeing a large forest.

Then look at those golden spiritual fruits hidden among the leaves, emitting an enticing aroma, as if saying, "Come and eat."

Everyone couldn't help but push the person in front forward a step, and then they saw a fire fox shriek. Not only did a fox run out of the woods, but people did too.

But before they could run out from under the tree canopy, crack! Several bolts of lightning shot up, deflecting them back and sending them flying.

Then, unable to break free, it crashed into a tree trunk and fell, only to be enveloped in a cocoon by a sudden bolt of lightning.

After a long while, the cocoon disintegrated and smoke rose from the person; the fox was almost bald.

Everyone was relieved that they hadn't rushed forward immediately. Once they saw who had gotten up, they recognized many of them.

"Nie Chengzhang?"

"Fellow Daoist Sang."

"Fellow Daoist Kang."

"Senior Brother Jueming, is my senior brother here?"

"Uncle Jiang! Senior Sister Huang."

Shen Suiren also saw Shen Tinglu and several other cultivators rushing out from another direction.

Jiang Xiaoye helped himself up from the tree trunk and said in Shen Suiren's direction, "Thanks to the Thunder Spirit Fruit that Ji Yu harvested, we were able to hold on here."

I've tried countless methods, but I can't get out of this area no matter where I go.

After saying that, he immediately grabbed a Thunder Spirit Fruit from his storage ring and started eating it. The other people who got up also did the same.

"Where is Ji Yu?" Shen Suiren asked Nie Chengzhang.

The latter glanced at a large tree covered with a dense network of purple-gold lightning, saying, "It ate a lot of lightning spirit fruits and fell off the tree and disappeared."

After a moment of surprise, Shen Suiren winked at him. Seeing Nie Chengzhang nod almost imperceptibly, she instantly understood that the little divine beast had crawled into the Hunyuan Earth Mother Cauldron to avoid the lightning.

At that moment, the little fox king's voice also quietly entered his ears, "At the beginning of the year, Ji Yu is an earth unicorn, and should be least afraid of thunder. The spiritual fruit on this tree can help it advance and remove the turbidity from its eyes."

It's currently focused on absorbing the spiritual fruit; it'll be fine.

"Do I know that the trees ahead are branches of the Primordial Thunder Spirit Tree?" Shen Suiren certainly didn't believe that all the trees in front of him were passed down from the Primordial Era.

The little fox king was somewhat unsure. After asking Si Shi and the clam mother for their opinions, hesitantly nodded: "Most likely."

The Lich Wars shattered so many things, and those that survived and adapted to the present world have all undergone some degree of mutation.

She thought for a moment and then said, "Even if it isn't, eating it can reduce the chances of being struck by lightning. Look, the sword cultivator is still holding his sword. We should take more with us so that it will be easier for us to overcome the lightning tribulation later."

Shen Suiren agreed wholeheartedly, then turned to look at her teammates who were still talking to some people under the tree canopy.

Firefox jumped around anxiously, saying, "How can we get them out? Think of a way."

Shen Suiren pondered for a moment, then said to Cheng Zhishun in front of him, "Are there any other lightning protection gadgets?"

"Here you go." Cheng Zhishun was about to untie the Thunder Control Plate.

Shen Suiren shook his head repeatedly, "I think it's not restricted to talk inside or outside. People inside can't get out, but people outside can probably get in."

"Would we risk getting trapped if we went in rashly?"

"No, I want to check out the surrounding terrain."

As they spoke, Shen Suiren removed the jujube branch from Juexing's shoulder and quickly placed it on Cheng Zhishun's shoulder.

"Wait a minute." Just as she was about to be electrocuted, Cheng Zhishun suddenly grabbed her and shouted to Nie Chengzhang under the Thunder Spirit Tree, "Throw out a spirit fruit."

Whoosh, bang, sizzle
A perfectly good spiritual fruit was burst with juice right before everyone's eyes and turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

For a moment, there was silence.

Shen Suiren quickly bit into a jujube to slightly relieve the pain. "I have to see what kind of formation it is, otherwise I'll have made a wasted trip."

“I’ll go with you. Juexing, please help me hold the jujube branch behind me steady.” As a sound cultivator, Yao Niaoniao’s knowledge of formations is definitely not a problem.

Both female cultivators took the lead, and their fellow disciples and relatives were also under the tree canopy. Those in the group who considered themselves good at formations stepped forward one after another.

Using a jujube branch for support as they walked, and holding a Leiling jujube in their other hand to bite and relieve the pain, they went in pairs to observe the Leiling fruit tree area.

Unfortunately, their efforts were not necessarily fruitful. They searched twice but found no trace of the formation. Instead, they were struck by lightning and left in a sorry state, unable to go any further.

"This is bizarre. Who set up this formation? None of us can figure it out." Yao Niaoniao opened her mouth, sparks flying from her teeth.

Shen Suiren touched his bald head, closed his eyes and glanced at the green leaf in his sea of ​​consciousness. Apart from jumping excitedly as if it wanted to fly to the Thunder Spirit Fruit Tree, it could not give any other information: "I think I should go in and explore it myself."

"What if you can't get out?" Fire Fox was even more worried than Niao Niao, fearing that a group of cultivators would come after it.

"Just leave it as is." Shen Suiren took off the spirit beast bracelet from Yao Niaoniao. "Take care of it for me."

"No, I want to go with them," came the little fox king's voice from inside.

The fire fox stared wide-eyed at the bracelet. Had it been so careful to avoid cultivators all the way, yet perfectly avoided the safest place?

Then, it heard the voices of the Crimson Serpent Demon King and another demon indicating that they would go together.

While Fiery Fox was still figuring out how to greet the Little Fox King, Shen Suiren had already decisively stepped into the canopy.

"Let's go for it!" Yao Niaoniao gritted her teeth and jumped in as well.

The two were immediately enveloped in a web of lightning, and Nie Chengzhang, who had been following them, was also enveloped in a cocoon of lightning as he reached out to receive it.

Shen Tinglu and Jiang Xiaoye were a step too slow to stop them, so they could only take out the Thunder Spirit Fruit and wait for the cocoon to open.

Upon spotting their teammates not far away, they quickly relayed the message back.

Cheng Zhishun immediately took off the Thunder Control Plate and gave it to Juexing, saying, "I knew she was going to act recklessly."

After saying that, it ran into the canopy of the tree in front of it and successfully became a thunder cocoon.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu." Juexing tossed the Thunder Control Disc to Qiu Lu behind him and jumped away in a flash.

Qiu Lu then tossed the object to the person behind her and eagerly jumped in.

Then, just like a relay race, the cultivators passed the baton from one to the next, one after another.

Even those who didn't really want to go under the Thunder Spirit Tree felt embarrassed to just stand by and watch.

Before long, the original group of several dozen people was reduced to less than half.

Just as Lu Fang was about to hand the Thunder Control Disc to another person, Cheng Zhishun broke free of his cocoon and took the spiritual fruit handed to him by someone, absorbing it all in one gulp.

He immediately became energetic and started calling out, "Lu Fang, those of you behind, don't come in for now, so that we can cover for those of us inside."

That lightning-controlling disc is mine; you'd better keep a close eye on it.

"Junior Brother Cheng, are we just for show?" Two Foundation Establishment senior brothers from the Demon Moon Sect in the group were unwilling to listen to him.

Cheng Zhishun immediately nodded: "I believe Lu Fang will return the Thunder Control Disc to me, but I don't believe you."

"You!" The two senior brothers were angered when they saw the team members snickering.

"Stop making noise, or I won't help you get rich." Cheng Zhishun acted as if he hadn't seen anyone and turned around to look for someone: "Where is Suichu?"

Juexing, with so many cocoons, which one of them made a sound?

While he was loudly shouting and gesturing, Shen Suiren was dreaming inside her cocoon.

Oh no, in the cultivation world it's called "soul leaving the body".

The little fox king and Si Shi chased after the green leaf that enveloped her soul as it flew out of her sea of ​​consciousness, but they could not catch it.

He wanted to call out to Nie Chengzhang outside, but was stopped by the thick lightning surrounding Sui Chu.

Shen Suiren flew away from this place in an instant with the green leaves, and his divine soul surveyed this island, which was even larger than Lü Lüge.

The entire terrain and landform were imprinted in her mind almost instantly.

As she floated, she saw not only her fellow cultivators scattered in various places, but also Core Formation cultivators.

The ThunderNet Forest and a seventh-tier rice paddy being harvested are only a mountain and a lake away.

She wanted to take a closer look at who was in the rice paddy, but Green Leaf wanted to fall onto the lake.

As a result, when the Dragon King shouted "Who's there?", neither of them achieved their goal, and Green Leaf swiftly brought her back to her sea of ​​consciousness.

The Little Fox King and the spirit shadow at 9 AM asked anxiously, "Sui Chu, are you alright?"

"No, we'll talk about it later." Shen Suiren opened his eyes and found that the lightning net on her body was gone. She was leaning against the tree trunk, being fed spiritual juice by Niao Niao.

"woke up!"

"The beginning of the year".

"Junior sister."

Several people crowded in front of her, and Cheng Zhishun and Juexing's heads even bumped together with a thud.

Instead of fighting, the two asked each other in unison, "What's wrong with you?"

"Was I unconscious for a long time because the lightning was too intense?" She felt it was only a short while.

Jue Xing's elder brother, Jue De, said, "Fellow Daoist, you haven't woken up after half an hour. May I take your pulse again?"
Fellow Daoists, please step aside for a moment; at the beginning of the year, you need to regulate your breathing.

Everyone then stepped back, leaving only Jue De and Yao Niaoniao in front of her.

"At the beginning of the year, this humble monk sensed something unusual about your spirit just now."

He seemed to be out of his mind; we must be especially careful in the future to avoid being taken advantage of by bad people. Jue De appeared to be taking his pulse with his eyes closed, but in reality, he was transmitting his thoughts. In his heart, he was very grateful for Sui Chu's help.

"Your medical skills are truly excellent; for a moment, I was completely captivated."

"I will take good care of myself after returning to the sect." Shen Suiren was indeed a little scared after he mentioned it. Fortunately, he had trustworthy people around him today.

The green leaves within the sea of ​​consciousness must be controlled as soon as possible, otherwise please leave.

After a short rest, she and her teammates began circling the tree, but still couldn't find the key point of the formation. However, she did have some ideas on how to open up a way out.

She found a quiet tree trunk to lean against and was about to take out paper and pen to sketch when a thunderbolt hit her on the head with a thud.

She quickly caught it and looked up, only to see the Dragon King glaring at her: "You were spying on me from mid-air just now."
