Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 476 His Foundation Depleted, the Old Beggar Leaves Home

A giant axe swept across the sky, cleaving the heavens and earth, and cleaved towards Dao Yan.

As the Heavenly Flame borrowed by the Great Venerable Yanwu trembled, Li Wushou keenly sensed that the fire spirit power within Zizhen's body was forcibly mobilized, and the blazing sun shone on the axe light.

The sky, scorching hot and melting, seemed to melt away as the axe light cleaved the heavens. The moment the two met, even the axe light became indistinguishable, disappearing into the flames.

At the same time, deep underground.

The Earthly Fiend Black Dragon is a thousand feet long and looks like it's from the underworld.

The surging malevolent energy swept across the land, causing the region that had just been turned around by the Xuanhuang Banner to be shrouded in the resentment of the Earthly Fiend Dragon once again, and even the surging Xuanhuang energy was suppressed.

As they raced, the mountains roared, and the heavy burden became too much for them, so they headed straight for the area where Huang Shigong was located.

If it were to rush close to Huang Shigong, even if Huang Shigong had a way to escape, the formation formed by the flag bearers behind him and Kong Gu and the other Nascent Soul and True Lords would be shattered by the impact.

Huang Shigong stared solemnly at the Earthly Fiend Black Dragon.

Behind them was an empty valley, where the flag bearers and others formed a magic array, one team empowering them and the other empowering the Xuanhuang flag.

The magic array, the large star between the eyebrows, and the Xuanhuang flag pinning the void are all connected in a line.

He grasped the Xuanhuang flag in mid-air, and a Xuanhuang spear appeared out of thin air in his palm.

Holding a long spear, Huang Shigong exuded boundless killing intent. With a stomp of his foot, ten thousand dragons roared in unison. From beneath the Xuanhuang-covered land, dozens of earth vein dragons suddenly leaped up and charged towards the black dragon of the Earthly Fiends condensed by the Zhongtianguan magic array.

Although the Earth Vein Dragon is smaller in size, compared to the Earthly Fiend Black Dragon, it is like a jackal and an elephant.

However, with the blessing of Xuanhuang, it was incredibly tough. The moment the two collided, the earth vein dragon, like a cage chain, firmly bound the earth fiend black dragon in mid-air.

However, judging from the cracking sounds coming from mid-air, this binding will not last long.

But enough!

Huang Shigong was looking for this one perfect moment!
The Daoist energy within his body surged, and his form merged into the Xuanhuang (primordial chaos). In the next instant, his figure strangely emerged from the head of one of the earth vein dragons.

The Xuanhuang spear in his hand gleamed with a cold light, and Huang Shigong shouted in a chilling voice:

"Die!"

"laugh!"

The spear shot out like a dragon, the Xuanhuang Spear piercing straight through the head of the Earthly Fiend Black Dragon!
The Earthly Fiend Black Dragon, powerful enough to shatter the formation, froze in mid-air before suddenly collapsing.

Huang Shigong's expression relaxed, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Upon witnessing this scene, Li Wushou secretly thought to himself that he had underestimated the situation.

In the past few days, besides refining the Dharma Realm and Dao Fruits, he has also been secretly learning about Zhu Liuli's arrangements. The Golden Heaven and Black Earth of Zhongtian Pass contains rich golden spiritual power and dragon evil resentment power.

Through the accumulation of energy by the magic array over the years, it has reached an almost massive level.

It can be said that as long as Zhongtian Pass exists, the Golden Axe and the Earthly Fiend Dragon will also exist!
Even if Huang Shigong and Dao Yan wanted to break through Zhongtian Pass's magic array so easily, it wouldn't be that easy.

Sure enough, not long after Li Wushou sighed.

On Dao Yan's side, above Zhongtian Pass, beneath the sky that had quietly transformed into a golden canopy, a giant golden axe reappeared.

The moment it appeared, golden light tore through the sky and slashed towards Dao Yan's direction once again!

Beneath Huang Shigong's feet, the originally scattered Earthly Fiend Black Dragon, after spreading its fiendish energy across the ground, reassembled under the manipulation of the Zhongtian Pass formation.

At Zhongtian Pass, a golden roc spreads its wings and laughs wildly.

"Dao Yan brat, old ghost Huang, do you think you can break through Zhongtian Pass?"

Below him, Luanxuan, Nightingale, and the others also stood in two separate teams in the center of the Zhongtian Pass dojo when the battle began.

In the empty dojo plaza, inscriptions flickered, and two high platforms, one gold and one black, stood in the center of the plaza.

Luanxuan and Nightingale each led a team, their spiritual bodies pulsating with the power of the divine palace, continuously strengthening the high platform and activating the inscriptions.

Behind the two golden and black platforms, where the original council hall once stood, the entire building has been leveled, and a majestic shrine to the Sparrow God Mountain has risen from the ground.

A large amount of incense energy gushed out, blessing the spirits of Luan Xuan and the others.

Li Wushou was extremely envious. He had been thinking of asking the old beggar to think of a way to secretly intercept some of the incense. However, when he focused his attention on the Three Immortals Pavilion, he found that only Chen Gou'er was sitting on the square table with an incense burner in a serious manner.

The old beggar had long since disappeared!
A glint of light flashed in Li Wushou's eyes, and he quickly asked:

"Where's the old man?"

Chen Gou'er scratched his head, rolled his eyes, and replied:

"The old man just left. He said he went to see a play and told you not to worry about him."

Li Wushou glanced at Chen Gou'er's other hand, which was tucked behind his back. In that hand lay a piece of unknown flesh, which smelled sweet. Had he been bribed?

If you're going to watch a play, just watch it. Why keep it from me?

Is there some benefit that I haven't noticed at this point?

Or is there some oversight in your arrangements?
Li Wushou was filled with a myriad of emotions!
Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under Li Wushou's gaze, Chen Gou'er quickly changed the subject and asked:

"Li Wushou, when are we going to start hunting birds?"

Li Wushou snapped out of his daze, looked at Chen Gou'er's clumsy acting, and replied with some helplessness:

"I'll call you later!"

Having said that, he composed himself and did not ask any more questions.

Seeing this, Chen Gou'er breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself that he had finally gotten smarter and even managed to fool Li Wushou. He was indeed too strong!

Li Wushou was speechless when he saw Chen Gou'er's smug look.

If only old beggars were as easy to care for as this child.

With a soft sigh, Li Wushou then focused all his attention on the battlefield.

He couldn't guess or care about the old beggar's plans, so he decided to focus on the matter at hand.

Outside Zhongtian Pass, axe-like lights flashed one after another, but Dao Yan mobilized the blazing sun to continuously melt away the axe-like lights.

The Earthly Fiend Black Dragon continuously shattered the earth veins, attempting to rush to Huang Shigong and smash the magic array behind him.

But it was repeatedly blocked outside the magic array, collapsing and then reforming again.

Although the battle between the two sides had just begun, it was already far superior to the battle at Jiangbei Pass in terms of both scale and intensity, and the fighting was fierce and chaotic.

Although a stalemate has been reached for the moment, everyone knows that this balance cannot be maintained for long.

After all, what matters now is the foundation built up over time.

Only when all the foundation has been dissipated will it be the time to truly see life and death!
Both sides were aware of this, so neither Huang Shigong nor Dao Yan responded to Jin Peng's provocative words. Instead, they continued to manipulate the magic array to extinguish the power mobilized by the Zhongtianguan magic array.

Li Wushou watched this scene quietly, without secretly pushing the course of the war or breaking the fragile balance between the two sides.

Because he knew that the two sides had not yet reached a heated stage and should still have their trump cards up their sleeves.

It should be noted that after the battle at Jiangbei Pass, the Daoist essence contained within the Flame Sun and the Xuanhuang Banner had been largely depleted.

But today, from the very beginning of the war, Daoyan and Huang Shigong have gone all out without any intention of saving any resources.

Even with the blessing of the magic array, this is still somewhat abnormal.

Therefore, although there was no direct information or evidence to suggest that the two had other trump cards, Li Wushou was still certain of this.

In addition, the same applies to the Sealing Spirit Path!

Jin Peng was merely carrying out Zhu Liuli's orders and plans.

Zhongtian Pass is not only about the magic array and the Golden Roc in front of us, but also about the Black Crow, which has already left Sparrow God Mountain but whose whereabouts are unknown. It is possible that the Black Crow will appear at any time.

Of course, the main figures are also Zhu Liuli, Que Zun, and even the Immortal Mountain.

No one knows what other schemes these people have besides Jin Peng.

Thinking of this, Li Wushou suddenly felt a chill.

With his gaze fixed on Zhongtian Pass, Li Wushou scanned every corner of the pass.

My heart skipped a beat, and I thought to myself:

Sure enough, besides the old beggar, there was another person missing.

Li Wushou searched every corner but couldn't find Zhu Liuli!

Even with Li Wushou's current level of vision, he couldn't find it even with focused observation. So there's only one possibility: Zhu Liuli has secretly left Zhongtian Pass.

Li Wushou clearly remembered that when Dao Yan rode the blazing sun to illuminate Zhongtian Pass in the void, Zhu Liuli was still mobilizing everyone in the Daoist temple.

But after Zhongtian Pass was pulled into the Sealed Spirit Path World, it seems to have disappeared!
Li Wushou had been distracted by the battle, and even Jin Peng didn't know exactly when he disappeared!

Zhu Liuli was not there, nor was the old beggar.

Li Wushou suddenly seemed to understand why the old beggar had bribed Chen Gou'er to keep it from him.
