Chapter 299 Natural Alliance
Wei Chenyin and his group were able to fight four against eight thanks entirely to Cao Yi's formation; otherwise, they would have been defeated long ago by the Heavenly Gang Dharma Wheel Formation composed of the eight people from Yunmen Temple.

At this moment, Zhang Lingrui, who had been enraged, had become the core of the formation. His eyes were deep, and he gripped his sword with both hands, channeling the spiritual energy that the three of them had channeled into his body through the formation into his natal sword. A sharp golden sword intent swirled around him, and the sword in his hand emitted a sword cry. A huge golden sword shadow formed above Zhang Lingrui's head, pointing directly at the Buddhist cultivators of Yunmen Temple.

"Amitabha! Change formation!"

Sensing the opponent's ever-increasing sword intent, the leading Buddhist cultivator's eyes darkened slightly. He immediately chanted a Buddhist incantation and began to change the formation.

The eight Golden Core Buddhist cultivators from Yunmen Temple quickly changed positions, channeling their power into the leading Buddhist cultivator, who sat cross-legged in mid-air, the illusory image of a wrathful Vajra gradually forming above his head, confronting Zhang Lingrui's giant sword.

Two female cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect in the distance frowned as they watched the battle unfold before them.

After finding nothing in their chosen direction, they prepared to go to the center of the city to take a look, but they were attracted by the sounds of fighting between the two sides, though they did not know the reason for the fight.

"Senior sister, what's going on? Did they discover something, which is why they started fighting?"

"I don't know, but how could the Buddhist cultivators of Yunmen Temple bully the few with their numbers and have such a strong desire to kill? This doesn't fit their cultivation method."

"Could it be that we've really discovered some extraordinary rare and precious treasure?"

The female cultivator only had this one guess; otherwise, there would be no need for the two sides to fight to the death here.

At this critical moment, a melodious flute tune reached the ears of both sides in the battle, including two female cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect.

"Junior sister, focus your mind and don't let the flute music distract you."

"Yes!"

The two immediately blocked their hearing, but the melodious flute music struck their very souls. Even with their hearing blocked, they could still hear it. However, they were not the main targets of the flute music, so they were able to keep their minds calm.

"Heh heh! You bald monks from Yunmen Temple, you're really something, daring to run wild on our turf!"

A charming and flamboyant female voice, accompanied by falling bauhinia blossoms, entangled the enormous, wrathful phantom of Vajra.

Lu Wangyou followed closely behind, waving his sleeve and scattering dozens of black pellets that, in coordination with the Bauhinia flower, also flew towards the Vajra phantom. He opened his mouth and uttered the word "Explode".

Caught off guard, the eight people from Yunmen Temple were affected by the flute music and momentarily lost their focus. The spiritual power they channeled into the illusory image of the Wrathful Vajra was somewhat delayed. Just then, the attacks of the sword shadow, the Bauhinia flower, and the thunderstorm ball were launched simultaneously, and the booming explosions caused the entire mountainside to shake.

With a "pfft," the eight Buddhist cultivators simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood. The illusory image of the wrathful Vajra was blasted into pieces and dissipated in the air. Their Heavenly Gang Dharma Formation was broken, and all eight of them were sent flying a distance before crashing to the ground.

Cao Yi swallowed a pill but did not remove the formation. The moment the eight people fell to the ground, he threw out nine formation pillars and quickly activated them with hand seals. A transparent light shield trapped the eight people inside. This was a trapping formation that he deduced based on the sect's protective formation of the Medical Immortal Sect.

Lu Wangyou held two thunderbolt balls in his palms and called out loudly in the direction of the two female cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect:
"Fellow Daoists from the Central Region, please step forward!"

Zijing also turned her gaze to the two of them, touched the bauhinia flower in her hair, and smiled charmingly:

"Fellow Daoists, it's no fun sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight. There are many places to explore here. Why don't we come out and have a chat?"

The female cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect exchanged glances, realizing they had been exposed and had no choice but to come out. After activating their defensive magic treasures, they boldly stepped out.

Liu Haotian gripped the jade flute in his hand and asked in a cold voice:

"Do you two fellow cultivators from the Immortal Transformation Sect know anything? Why are the Buddhist cultivators from Yunmen Temple attacking cultivators from our western region?"

His question was very direct. “Fellow Daoist, we parted ways with you after entering this city. We didn’t know when the Buddhist cultivators from Yunmen Temple entered here. We only rushed over after hearing the commotion, and they were already fighting.”

Before we understood the whole story, neither of us took sides. Their fight was simply a competition for rare and precious materials; we agreed to rely on our own abilities, and we didn't deliberately target anyone.

The Golden Core female cultivator from the Immortal Transformation Sect answered with neither arrogance nor servility.

Although it's currently two against seven, if the seven on the other side act unreasonably, they could join forces with the Buddhist monks from Yunmen Temple, and the final outcome is truly uncertain.

In this somewhat eerie atmosphere, Wei Chenyin suddenly frowned and spoke:

"Gentlemen, we may have been tricked by evil cultivators."

Her words caused a huge stir, and everyone's attention was focused on her, waiting for her explanation.

Wei Chenyin held a jade tablet in her hand, which contained the information Yunxi had sent her about evil cultivators infiltrating the secret realm. It also stated that evil cultivators were secretly targeting cultivators from the five regions, and warned them to be vigilant and watch out for any cultivators from other regions who deliberately provoked them.

After Cao Yi finished reading the jade token that Wei Chenyin handed over, he passed it to Lin Keyang. Zhang Lingrui, who was the last to read it, frowned and said:

"Senior Sister Wei, why did Yunxi only send you a message? Why didn't we receive any?"

Before Wei Chenyin could speak, Cao Yi explained:
"The communication jade slips used by Senior Sister Wei and Yunxi are enhanced by bloodline secret techniques, making the message transmission more accurate. Yunxi must have sent us a message as well, but we didn't receive it. Perhaps it was blocked outside by this ancient cultivator's cave, or perhaps it was affected by the secret realm."

The name "Yunxi" was accurately captured by Liu Haotian, Lu Wangyou, and Zijing.

Liu Haotian was the first to ask a question:

"Are you all acquainted with Wei Yunxi? Has she also come to the secret realm? I haven't seen her before."

Wei Chenyin was taken aback, not expecting this person to know Yun Xi, then coughed lightly and said:

"Yunxi couldn't show herself in public, so she entered the secret realm using another identity."

Her explanation was rather vague, but everyone understood it, given the significant uproar surrounding the discovery of the Medical Immortal Sect ruins in Jade Star City.

Lin Keyang glanced at Lu Wangyou and Zijing and saw that they also had an "I understand" look on their faces. He felt an urge to facepalm. Wei Shimei had a wider circle of friends than they had imagined, and it just so happened that they all ended up together.

After hearing this, Zhang Lingrui laughed and said:

"In that case, we all have mutual friends, so we are natural allies. So, what do you all think we should do about the Buddhist practitioners at Yunmen Temple?"

The female cultivator from the Immortal Transformation Sect spoke up:

"Everyone, was the information you just received accurate? How did the heretical cultivators infiltrate the secret realm?"

Wei Chenyin stared at the two of them for a long time, until they both felt a little uneasy, before she entered the message into a blank jade slip and tossed it to them.

The two quickly browsed through the contents and returned the jade slip to Wei Chenyin. Their expressions became more serious. If the news was true, then the evil cultivators must have made a grand plan. They just didn't know what their real purpose was. It certainly wasn't to kill a few cultivators from various regions who had entered the secret realm.

Cao Yi looked at the Buddhist and Taoist cultivators of Yunmen Temple who were attacking the trapped formation:
"Fellow Daoists of the Immortal Transformation Sect, only you two are currently suitable to communicate with the Buddhist cultivators of Yunmen Temple."

See you tomorrow~
