Chapter 93: Chapter 86 Ancestor Wang’s Severed Arm (Seeking First Subscription and Full Subscription!)
Death Fire Abyss.
Located at the junction of Qing State and Chu State, it’s a perilous mountain terrain, silent within, and filled with a kind of red poisonous grass resembling flames that ordinary people find hard to enter, thus named Death Fire Abyss.
The Demon Sect’s branch is located here.
Normally, it’s a place rarely visited, but since two days ago, the military started to blockade this place.
In recent years, the Demon Sect has been restless, constantly probing, so the Great Yan Dynasty decided to take a hard stance to deter them.
The Demon Sect’s branch had already noticed and attempted to break through.
But they were all blocked and forced back.
The Demon Sect’s branch has items that cannot be abandoned, but the pressure from the imperial court is not overwhelming, and the strength of both sides is evenly matched, forming a stalemate.
Of course, this is what both sides are willing to achieve.
The Demon Sect is trying every way to delay, pack up the precious items to prepare for transfer, and break through to deliver information to other branches, while the court waits for Ancestor Wang’s reinforcement.
When Taoist Longshan and others arrived here, they witnessed the scene.
Dozens of figures descended from the sky, attracting the attention of many strong individuals from the imperial court.
Taoist Longshan and others were also observing the crowd opposite them.
All were invigorated.
On the imperial court’s side, there are also five Celestial Human Realm experts.
Especially the one leading them.
Clad in blue armor, holding a blood-colored spear, this middle-aged man had a piercing cold gaze filled with murderous intent, just a glance made it seem like witnessing a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Everyone had already recognized his identity.
Ranked twenty-eight on the Celestial Being List, Divine Feather Grand General.
He is one of the renowned grand generals of the Great Yan Dynasty, each one not only commanding troops like a god but also an astonishing cultivation Martial Arts Strong Person.
Even the Cyan Bull Blade Master couldn’t help but tense up, as the Celestial Being List only ranks thirty-six, and advancing a few places signifies a stronger line of power, with every ten positions having a qualitative difference.
"We pay our respects to Divine Feather Grand General!" Everyone cupped their fists in salute.
Ancestor Wang laughed heartily:
"Divine Feather Grand General, I am lucky not to have failed, and have brought reinforcements."
He respectfully presented the Great Yan Martial Saint Token.
Divine Feather Grand General nodded slightly, his gaze swept across the crowd, pausing especially on Cyan Bull Blade Master, his satisfaction was evident, which surprised him as he initially thought Ancestor Wang might bring two Celestial Beings at most, but unexpectedly brought four, including one from the Celestial Being List.
With this, the number of Celestial Human Realm experts on his side increased directly to ten, twice as many as the Demon Sect’s branch here.
Originally expected to be eight versus five, now it was ten versus five.
Even if these temporarily recruited people weren’t that desperate, victory was practically assured!
Achieving this with lesser force meant greater merit for him.
Otherwise, if ten Celestial Human Realm experts were directly summoned from the imperial court, there would be nothing left for him to do.
He lifted the corners of his mouth slightly into a smile.
"Well done, thanks to Patriarch Wang." This remark made Ancestor Wang smile even more cheerfully.
Then the grand general continued:
"This must be the newly promoted Celestial Human Realm, True Man Longshan. I’ve long admired your name."
Taoist Longshan hurriedly returned the salute.
"It was my idea to temporarily bring everyone here with Patriarch Wang, only because the Demon Sect is hateful, stirring trouble for years. If we can suppress their arrogance, Qing State and Chu State will be more peaceful in the future. This time, using the Celestial Being Grand Ceremony of True Man to summon everyone, I hope no one will blame Patriarch Wang."
This remark made everyone’s hearts tighten.
This clearly showed that the Wang Clan was being backed, and if anyone seeks trouble with them later, they’d better reconsider.
"We dare not, it is our duty to serve the Great Yan."
Everyone waved their hands.
Seeing that everyone at least seemed cooperative on the surface, Divine Feather Grand General’s mood improved, and he continued:
"Rest assured, serving the Great Yan, the imperial court will not be stingy. After this mission is accomplished, I will report to the emperor, and there will be rewards for everyone."
"Now, let me inform you about the situation of the Demon Sect’s branch here."
Everyone’s expressions turned serious.
Rewards are secondary; the immediate priority is overcoming this challenge. The intelligence concerns everyone’s lives.
Divine Feather Grand General chuckled:
"You need not worry, there are only five Celestial Human Realm individuals at this Demon Sect branch. One of them is not on the Celestial Being List, but their strength should be on par with the grand general and Cyan Bull Brother. With Cyan Bull Brother and the grand general working together to suppress them, there won’t be any error."
The first statement eased the hearts of several Celestial Human Realm individuals.
With this setup.
It was two against one, much safer, everyone’s biggest concern was the close match in Celestial Human combat power, not only fighting to the death but also having to guard against sneak attacks from wherever they might emerge, in such cases, luck becomes crucial sometimes.
And Primordial Core Realm individuals also relaxed significantly, as with Celestial Human Realm being contained, at least they don’t have to worry about being instantly wiped out by Celestial Human impacts from anywhere.
Cyan Bull Blade Master asked:
"May I ask the grand general, haven’t the people from the Demon Sect thought of breaking through?"
He was puzzled.
For two days, quietly waiting for reinforcements to arrive, without any precaution?
Divine Feather Grand General’s eyes showed hints of a mocking smile:
"Death Fire Abyss here is best suited for cultivating the Blood Demon Flower. This Demon Sect branch’s Blood Demon Flower is almost mature; those old demons naturally won’t abandon it. To transfer the Blood Demon Flower root and all without damaging its potency requires several days of preparation."
"During this time, as long as the general doesn’t push too hard, they naturally won’t jump over the wall in desperation."
