The two cultivators at the Transformation Realm officially clashed.
When cultivators of similar cultivation levels and combat strength start fighting, it's impossible to end the battle quickly.
Time began to fly by, and soon dusk arrived. In Jianglin City, government soldiers began to drive the people home.
"Tonight, all shops must close and no one is allowed to go out. Violators will be severely punished," the officers and soldiers announced loudly.
The people were unaware of what had happened, but they had no choice but to obey orders and go home.
As the sun completely set, Jianglin City immediately became silent. According to the rules, not even lamps were allowed to be lit today, so the city was pitch black.
"Time's up." Ye Liuyun snapped his fingers. The next moment, the Dream-Entering Pills, which had been pre-placed throughout Jiangling City, exploded, releasing a large amount of smoke that covered the entire city in less than three minutes.
The moment an ordinary person smelled the scent emanating from the Dream-Entering Pill, even those who weren't asleep would immediately faint to the ground.
Some independent cultivators only felt slightly dizzy, but did not fall asleep immediately.
At the same time, a large number of cultivators flew rapidly from the Cloud Sea Mountains and arrived above Jianglin City. They were cultivators from the Cloud Sect and the four lower-level sects.
Chapter 251 Operation (4000 words)
The leader of the Cloud Sect is a young and handsome man named Fang Mingyu, a cultivator at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm in the Four Extremes Secret Realm.
"Strange, although there's a curfew in Jianglin City tonight, it's unusually quiet, isn't it?" Fang Mingyu scanned various parts of Jianglin City with his divine sense, then asked with a strange expression.
The others quickly scanned the area with their divine senses and discovered that almost all the common people were asleep. Apart from a few cultivators who were still active, almost all the mortals in the city were asleep.
"Could it be that the Secret Investigation Division used some means to make all the people faint?" an inner sect elder replied.
Unfortunately, no one can answer this question.
“Mingyu, there are powerful energy fluctuations to the west. One side is demonic energy, and the other side should be cultivators from our human race. Their aura is much stronger than mine.” An old voice suddenly rang in Fang Mingyu’s ear.
The one speaking should be Li Qianqiu, the patriarch of the Yun Sect. With such a big matter, the patriarch of the Yun Sect would definitely come.
Upon hearing this, Fang Mingyu's heart sank. She felt that many things had happened today that were beyond their expectations, which left her somewhat puzzled.
However, Ye Liuyun wouldn't give them a chance to think, because under the cover of Lin Qingyou's power, Ye Liuyun began to refine the Heavenly Thunder Tempering Pill. As the Heavenly Thunder Tempering Pill began to be refined, the originally brilliant starry sky was covered by dark clouds, and muffled thunder rumbled between heaven and earth.
"Huh? What's going on? Is someone undergoing tribulation?" The experts from the Cloud Sect were stunned by the sudden change.
What shocked them even more was yet to come. After the thunderclouds appeared in the sky, they began to fall recklessly to all parts of Jianglin City. The locations of these lightning strikes were completely random, because they were targeting the cultivators in Jianglin City, striking wherever there were cultivators.
"Boom, boom..." The sound of thunder continued endlessly.
Especially in the northern part of the city, the lightning strikes were the most frequent; it was practically raining thunderstorms there.
Because the Blood Demon Cult's followers have gathered at the headquarters tonight, numbering at least five thousand.
The elder of the Blood Demon Sect was anxiously waiting for Lu Wenyang to return when the sudden lightning strike left him utterly stunned.
"what……"
Almost simultaneously, all the believers were struck by lightning, screaming in agony as they were struck. Only cultivators at the Dao Palace level or above were able to withstand the attack.
This lightning is twice as deadly to evildoers.
"Damn it, Master, it must be the Cloud Sect that attacked us. We've been hit by their lightning attack. That damned Lu Wenyang, knowing full well that our Blood Demon Sect could be attacked by the Cloud Sect at any time, he still recklessly left Jianglin City." Several experts from the Four Extremes Secret Realm cursed incessantly.
The scene inside the city really looked like the end of the world, but what confused Fang Mingyu and the others was that these lightning bolts seemed to only strike cultivators and not ordinary people, and the lightning could ignore any object and strike the cultivators directly.
"How strange! What kind of method is this? Could it be an array set up by the Secret Investigation Division? This lightning is like tribulation lightning, able to ignore any obstacles, but unfortunately its power is too weak," Fang Mingyu and the others muttered.
Although lightning is powerful, it doesn't seem to kill cultivators when it strikes them.
The scene before them was familiar to everyone from the Cloud Mist Sect. Wasn't this the kind of lightning phenomenon that couldn't kill people? They had all experienced the effects of such lightning before.
"Senior sister, isn't this the same lightning phenomenon that has occurred in our Yunxia Sect? It's exactly the same, but it doesn't kill anyone, just like a tribulation lightning strike," Yun Che asked telepathically.
Yun Yun nodded solemnly. She was now almost certain that the lightning phenomenon was related to her disciple or Ye Liuyun.
During the time the two of them were away from Yunxia Sect, the sect enjoyed good weather and abundant harvests, but wherever they went, chaos and disorder followed.
Therefore, Yun Yun was 90% certain that it was the two of them who were behind it, but she found it hard to imagine how one of them, a Spirit Stream Realm cultivator, and the other, a Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator, could possess such exaggerated methods.
If this lightning phenomenon was indeed caused by the two of them, then it means that other strange celestial phenomena must also be related to them.
Now that they knew the pattern of the lightning, Yun Yun understood that this might be the best time for them to make their move. The lightning would suppress some of the strength of those at the Dao Palace level, and it would also completely suppress cultivators at the Wheel Sea level.
"Sect Master Fang, take a look. We've received information that the Blood Demon Sect's headquarters is located in the North City, and that area is covered by a large amount of lightning. In addition, this lightning seems to only attack cultivators, so we can be fairly certain that the Blood Demon Sect members are all there. The power of this lightning strike isn't very strong, so we cultivators above the Dao Palace level can take this opportunity to make our move," Yun Yun suggested.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Mingyu gestured to an elder, who understood what Fang Mingyu meant: he was asking him to test the power.
He flew to the foot of the dark clouds, and the next moment, a bolt of lightning struck. However, the lightning struck him, but his powerful body easily blocked it, so it had virtually no lethality.
"Sect Master, this lightning can only injure cultivators at the Dao Palace level at most; it has no effect on cultivators in our Four Extremes Secret Realm," the elder said hurriedly after sensing it.
Fang Mingyu didn't know what was going on, but she couldn't care less about it anymore.
At the same time, Fang Mingyu received a message from the Secret Investigation Division, saying that it was time to take action.
If they're going to take action, they'll definitely need to notify the cultivators on the imperial side.
Although Lu Wenyang was lured away and there was a threat of lightning from the sky, the die was cast.
"Disciples, listen to my command! Cultivators at the Sea of Wheels realm, surround the area. Cultivators at the Dao Palace realm and above, follow me into the city to exterminate the demons and monsters!" Fang Mingyu commanded with a wave of his hand.
Then it flew headlong towards the north city of Jianglin.
Meanwhile, the imperial secret police, along with several thousand imperial cultivators, rushed towards the palace where Lu Wenyang was staying. Based on their investigation, they speculated that the headquarters of the Blood Demon Sect should be located in Lu Wenyang's underground palace.
That place is absolutely the safest place in Jianglin City. Normally, without Lu Wenyang's orders, no one can enter.
"Ouch! Your Excellency Inspector, the lightning has made our whole bodies numb, and we can't move." The Dark Observation Division cultivators at the Sea of Wheels realm lay on the ground, complaining in pain.
As for cultivators above the Dao Palace level, lightning cannot harm them, but it will still cause them some discomfort.
"Damn it, I don't know what's going on. Has someone set up some kind of formation around Jianglin City that we don't know about? But according to my observation, these lightning strikes seem to only attack standing cultivators. As long as they lie down, the lightning will stop attacking. So the Blood Demon Sect people must be the same as us."
“Lu Wenyang isn’t here today, and the Yun Sect has already arrived. Since things have come to this, we have no choice but to fight,” Du Ming said resolutely.
This lightning was almost indiscriminate, recognizing only Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun.
Lin Aoxue and her group also received a message from the sect, instructing those who were able to act to come and join them immediately.
——————————————————————————————————————————
"Liuyun, I'm counting on you. I'm going to meet up with Master and the others. The attack has begun," Lin Aoxue said, looking at Ye Liuyun who was refining medicine.
"Don't worry, I'll stop making medicine after the battle," Ye Liuyun said.
After Lin Aoxue finished speaking, she flew out of the window. Not only that, Yun Xin and He Zhi Qiu also flew out. As cultivators at the Dao Palace level, they were able to withstand the lightning.
"It's lightning again, Li Jianxin. Don't you feel that this lightning is similar to the lightning strikes we experienced back in the sect, and also the lightning strikes we experienced when we wiped out the Six Yang Mountains?" He Zhiqi asked with a melancholy expression after dodging a bolt of lightning.
Yun Xin glanced at the situation in the inn. Song Shuwen and the others had obediently lay on the ground and refused to get up. The lightning had not struck them, just like the lightning strike phenomenon they had witnessed.
"That should be it. Hey? Junior Sister Lin, why isn't the lightning striking you?" He Zhi Qiu saw Lin Aoxue, but the lightning didn't hit her at all.
Lin Aoxue looked at the two people who were constantly dodging the lightning strikes and gave an awkward smile.
"Huh? Well, maybe I was just lucky. Um, let's hurry up and meet up with Master and the others." Lin Aoxue didn't know how to explain, so she could only give a few perfunctory words.
Yunxin and the others watched Lin Aoxue fly away with strange expressions.
After much deliberation, He Zhiqi proposed a hypothesis.
“Li Jianxin, tell me, is this lightning incident related to her? Otherwise, why didn’t it strike her? Did God give her special treatment? Why?” He Zhiqi questioned, pointing at Lin Aoxue who had flown away.
After dodging a bolt of lightning, Yun Xin sighed and followed. He Zhi Qiu, who was in a daze, was struck by lightning because he hadn't reacted in time, which brought him to his senses. He then quickly chased after them.
As for Yun Yun and the others, they had already flown into Jianglin City, and lightning began to attack them frantically, but it was to no avail.
Because a large number of cultivators appeared within the area covered by thunderclouds, the lightning in the sky was quite frequent. Fortunately, these ordinary people were in a deep sleep, otherwise, if they had seen this scene, they would probably have been terrified.
"This is terrifying! What kind of technique is this? Is it a thunderstorm? If we enter the attack range of the thunderclouds, we'll probably be electrocuted into charcoal immediately." Some cultivators who had never experienced lightning tempering swallowed hard as they looked at the scene before them.
The disciples of the Cloud Mist Sect were the furthest away at this moment. They had experienced this several times before, so they were experienced. They were all lying on the ground to prevent the thundercloud from expanding, otherwise it would be embarrassing to be struck by it.
However, their strange behavior was seen as baffling by other sects.
"Look at the people from the Cloud Mist Sect, what's wrong with them? Why are they all lying on the ground?" Everyone looked confused.
"Who knows? This is too embarrassing!" some Yun Sect disciples mocked.
However, as Ye Liuyun continued to refine the Heavenly Thunder Tempering Pill, the range of the thunderclouds also continued to expand, and soon they spread towards them.
Sure enough, while they were in a daze, the disciples suddenly felt uneasy. They felt as if something was about to fall from above, so they all looked up at the sky.
"Huh? How did the thunderclouds spread over our heads?" The disciples of Yunzong and the other three families were still in a daze.
However, before they could react, tens of thousands of lightning bolts descended from the sky, striking the stunned cultivators with unerring accuracy.
"what……"
In an instant, everyone screamed in agony from the electric shocks. Those who weren't lying down were all attacked and fell from the sky, crashing to the ground.
"Pfft! What's going on? Why are they attacking us too?"
Apart from the disciples of the Yunxia Sect, the cultivators from other sects lay on the ground, spewing black smoke, and asked in bewilderment.
The people from the Yunxia Sect looked at them with idiotic eyes when they saw this scene.
"Tch, who's the loser? We're not sure yet. Oh, I knew this thundercloud was going to spread here. Fellow junior brothers and sisters, I was right to tell you to come down and lie down beforehand," Jiang Hong said with a grin.
The disciples of Yunxia Sect all nodded approvingly. In fact, even if Jiang Hong hadn't reminded them, they would have already planned to get down and lie down.
We don't know if any Blood Demon Cult cultivators will come out later. This is not the time to be struck by lightning. If you are struck by lightning, you will be very weak for a short period of time.
If they were in a sect, many of them would be willing to use lightning to cultivate.
Lin Aoxue and the others had already reunited with Yun Yun and the others, but when she arrived, all the powerful figures stared at Lin Aoxue with puzzled expressions, because the lightning from the sky did not attack Lin Aoxue, which was very strange. You know, even Fang Mingyu could not escape it, but Lin Aoxue was completely immune.
"What? Young lady, why isn't the lightning striking you?" a cultivator from the Cloud Sect couldn't help but ask.
Lin Aoxue didn't even think about it.
"Replying to Senior, this junior doesn't know either." Lin Aoxue could only pretend to be clueless, because she couldn't explain it.
Yun Yun quickly said to Lin Aoxue.
“Aoxue, this is the sect leader, Fang Mingyu, sect leader Fang.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Aoxue quickly stepped forward and bowed to Fang Mingyu.
"Lin Aoxue, a disciple of the lower sect, greets Senior Fang."
Fang Mingyu was surprised to see Lin Aoxue in front of her, but this was not the time to think about such things.
"Hmm, indeed extraordinary. Alright, everyone, prepare to make your move," Fang Mingyu commanded.
As soon as Fang Mingyu finished speaking, all the powerful figures sped up and flew to the skies above the North City. Without hesitation, they used their abilities to attack the protective array barrier around the North City.
They must have known there was a formation here. As hundreds of powerful attacks rained down, the formation protecting the North City shattered like a mirror.
As for the family members of officials living in the northern part of the city, they are all still conscious.
"What, what exactly happened? Why are the cultivators attacking the North City? Are they rebelling?" Wu Yingwen's expression changed drastically as he looked at the cultivators floating in the sky.
There's a protective array around the North City, so Lin Aoxue can't come over to place the pills. Therefore, she has no choice but to let them go for now.
With the formation broken, Fang Mingyu and the others headed straight for a certain place in the northern city. The place that their divine sense could not perceive must be the location of the Blood Demon Sect's headquarters, without a doubt.
They had already located this position. Previously, Lu Wenyang was blocking their way, preventing them from getting there. But now that Lu Wenyang was gone, they naturally had no worries.
The Blood Demon Cult members below had also sensed the powerful energy fluctuations above.
To be precise, the moment the lightning struck, the Blood Demon Sect elder realized that Yun Zong's attack had begun.
"Alas! Despite all our calculations, we still miscalculated. All cultivators who can still move, listen up! The enemy has begun their attack. We have lost our best chance to retreat and have no choice but to fight to the death!" the Blood Demon Sect elder shouted.
The members of the Blood Demon Cult all knew they had no way out, so they had no choice but to fight desperately.
End of Chapter 252 (4500 words, please vote with monthly tickets)
The lightning strike suppressed 70% of their disciples here, meaning that only 30% of them can now resist, and they have virtually no hope of escape.
Not long after, the Cloud Sect Ancestor also appeared. He appeared above Jianglin City and used his powerful divine sense to knock all the mortals in the North City who were not yet asleep into unconsciousness.
Yun Zong originally planned to knock out everyone in the city before taking action, but unexpectedly, someone had already knocked out most of the people for them.
The people from the Secret Investigation Division had arrived at the entrance to the underground palace and opened the door, but they did not rush in. Instead, they waited for Fang Mingyu and the others to arrive.
After Fang Mingyu and his group shattered the formation, they entered the North City and then arrived at the entrance to the underground palace.
