Family Cultivation: Rise of the Wilderness

Chapter 311 Emergency

Ouyang Jue and his men had been unable to break through for a long time, and Ouyang He was already extremely anxious. Upon receiving the order, he immediately rushed forward.

He harbored resentment towards Li Xiangren for deliberately mocking his severed arm, and immediately struck the ancient bronze bell.

The bell tolled loudly and passionately, but Li Xiangren sensed something was wrong. He quickly activated the runes on "Slaying Clouds," forced back the attacking enemies, and managed to escape.

However, the sound of bells is everywhere.

Just moments later, Li Xiangren felt a tightness in his chest and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Meanwhile, Han Yunhao, also affected by the bell's sound, lost his composure and was struck by Ouyang Jue's palm, suffering injuries even worse than Li Xiangren's.

"Is it a magical artifact?"

Outside the battlefield, on a small, exquisitely crafted airship, Bai Zhenghu asked with a hint of doubt.

Ding Chongji nodded: "The effect is so remarkable, it must be a spiritual artifact. I didn't expect that Ouyang He would have such a good thing on him."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhenghu gasped.

As a rogue cultivator, he had never actually seen a spiritual artifact before, which is why he wanted to learn from the knowledgeable Ding Chongji.

Upon learning that it was indeed a magical artifact, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

Fortunately, he didn't force his way through Ouyang He's formation; otherwise, if the opponent had used this thing, he would have been in serious trouble.

Turning to look at Ding Chongji, Bai Zhenghu asked in a low voice, "The Ouyang family has such a rich foundation. If nothing unexpected happens, these two lads won't be able to protect Green Cloud Cave. Without them to restrain the Ouyang family, we won't be in a good position either. Why don't we take the lead now?"

"That's feasible."

Ding Chongji pondered for a moment, then quickly agreed to the proposal.

The sudden appearance of Han Yunhao and Li Xiangren completely disrupted the current situation. All the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Ouyang family were besieging these two, and the remaining Qi Refining juniors posed no threat to them at all.

Unless Ouyang Tai takes action personally.

However, Ouyang Tai is the Ouyang family's greatest asset on this trip. If he abandons the Enlightenment Spring and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators and forcibly chases after Ding Chongji and his group who have flying boats, wouldn't he be losing more than he gains?

Without a doubt, this is the best time to escape.

Of course, if they run away, they will probably miss the once-in-a-century opportunity to access the Enlightenment Spring.

However, Bai Zhenghu and Ding Chongji had not come for the Enlightenment Spring in the first place, so without hesitation, they started the flying boat to leave.

Just then, a figure burst onto the battlefield.

"Stop! What are you doing?"

The newcomer, dressed in a pale yellow embroidered long dress, was none other than Min Ning.

Seeing this, Han Yunhao, who was struggling to hold on, became extremely anxious: "Junior sister, run! It's dangerous here."

Min Ning was stunned. She couldn't understand how, in such a short time, Han Yunhao, who had been chasing Li Xiangren, had joined forces with him and even fought against many Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Ouyang family.

After glancing at it for a few moments, Minning quickly realized the critical situation and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly is going on?"

Before Han Yunhao could reply, several Qi Refining cultivators from the Ouyang family were so excited they almost jumped for joy.

They were worried about not being able to help, so how could they not be happy to see another Hengyue Sect disciple coming over?
Yes, you, Han Yunhao, are powerful, but what can your junior sister, a mere Qi Refining cultivator, do?
Once Min Ning is captured, won't you, Han Yunhao, obediently submit?

With this thought in mind, all the Qi Refining cultivators from the Ouyang family gathered around, with the first group consisting of four people.

Those who were brought out by Ouyang Tai were all outstanding members of the younger generation in the clan, and all of them were late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Faced with the overwhelming attack, Min Ning was both shocked and furious. She drew her longsword, intending to force the crowd back.

However, after only a few exchanges, they were at a disadvantage and were in a precarious situation.

Clearly, Min Ning is not known for his magical prowess.

At the very least, he cannot fight four opponents at once.

Seeing this, Han Yunhao became very anxious.

Min Ningke is the granddaughter of Xuanli Zhenren and has always been regarded as the apple of his eye.

Even the sect leader's senior uncle doted on Min Ning.

If something happens to the other party, the people who reprimand him could line up from Feiyun Peak to the mountain gate.

Han Yunhao grew increasingly frightened, forced back all the enemies with a single sword strike, and tried to go to their rescue.

However, Ouyang Jue and his group were like a stubborn plaster, impossible to shake off.

He immediately roared, "Li Xiangren, aren't you going to save your fiancée?"

Han Yunhao's voice was loud, and many people in the audience heard it and looked at Li Xiangren with surprise.

Li Xiangren frowned.

He knew Han Yunhao was in trouble because the Ouyang family, to show their respect for Hengyue Sect, had sent three Foundation Establishment cultivators. Two of them were mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Even the exceptionally strong Han Yunhao suffered setbacks at every turn when attacked from three sides.

If it weren't for the bell, things would have been fine, but unfortunately, he suffered because of it and was struck by Ouyang Jue. At this moment, both his magical power and his originally swift movements were affected to some extent.

Defeat was inevitable, let alone breaking through.

But Lee Sang-in also had his own difficulties.

Don't be fooled by the fact that there were only two people attacking him; one of them was none other than Ouyang He, who was holding a bronze bell.

As the first bell tolled to the end, Lee Sang-in's body was no longer suppressed.

But Ouyang He could ring the second bell at any time.

Although the sound of the bronze bell has a wide range, it decreases gradually. Those on the outermost edge feel only a little annoyed, but those in the center feel as if Mount Tai is pressing down on them, making them unable to move. Even their souls are suppressed, causing them great torment.

The pressure Li Xiangren is under now is far beyond what Han Yunhao can imagine.

However, complaining is not Lee Sang-in's style.

He did dislike Min Ning, not because Min Ning was unruly or willful, but because he chased after him relentlessly out of spite.

Since he began his cultivation, he has been aware of the burdens he bears and is willing to be the sword in the hands of the Li family.

Countless people, both those who hunted him and those he hunted, were involved.

There were only a handful of people he truly resented.

His annoyance stemmed solely from Min Ning's failure to keep his appointment with Li Xiangming.

This has resulted in the two being out of contact for several days.

But in any case, Min Ning is a direct descendant of Xuanli Zhenren.

Master Xuanli had been kind to him. Although they were not officially master and disciple, they were in fact master and disciple. Even when Min Ning was chasing him, he never thought of fighting back.

At this moment, they were even more unwilling to see Min Ning captured by the Ouyang family, as this would be a humiliation for both Xuanli Zhenren and Hengyue Sect.

Glancing at Min Ning, who was struggling alone, Li Xiangren hardened his heart, smeared the blood that had spilled from the corner of his mouth onto "Zhan Yun" and chanted a spell.

In an instant, the world changed color.

"Slaying Clouds" expanded rapidly, and countless powerful golden sword energies burst forth automatically, swallowing up all the surrounding air.

Nevertheless, the golden sword energy was not satisfied. Like a thousand troops, it swept across the land with overwhelming force, seemingly capable of shaking the heavens and earth and piercing through the sun and moon.

Ouyang He and another cultivator in the early Foundation Establishment stage were both startled and retreated.

Even Han Yunhao, Ouyang Jue, and others who were persistently pestering him were affected and had to retreat and give way.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Li Xiangren streaked across the sky like a shooting star and flew to Min Ning's side.

Before he even made a move, the immense sword energy emanating from his body was like a raging storm, causing several members of the Ouyang family to cough up blood and fly backward.

"you"

Min Ning looked at Li Xiangren, who resembled a god, opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
Just then, a white light flew towards Li Xiangren.

Li Xiangren immediately sensed the layers of sword energy protecting his body.

However, these powerful sword energies were as thin as paper in front of the white light, offering no resistance whatsoever.

In a mere instant, the sword energy was pierced through, and Li Xiangren screamed as he fell from the sky, his fate unknown.

"Li Xiangren!"

Min Ning was shocked and hurriedly chased after him, barely managing to catch Li Xiangren's falling body.

Suddenly, she felt something sticky in her hand and quickly released her fingers. She saw that Li Xiangren had a fist-sized hole in his left chest, from which blood was gushing out.

Looking at the man she had once longed to kill, Min Ning's mind went blank.

She trembled as she placed her index finger in front of Lee Sang-in's nose, where his breath was barely perceptible.

"Don't die! I'm the one who's going to kill you!"

Min Ning's eyes instantly turned red, and she frantically covered Li Xiangren's chest.

Then, suddenly remembering something, he immediately took out a jade bottle and haphazardly stuffed the pills inside into Li Xiangren's mouth.

After doing all this, Min Ning raised her head and looked at the source of the white light, which was none other than Ouyang Tai with a cold expression.

This veteran late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator finally made his move.
