Chapter 501: Chapter 262: Who Betrayed Us? Why Didn’t You Say So Earlier?_3

"With Junior Master Huang guarding, you younger generations should not be fighting on the frontlines, while we hide in the back..." Elder Yuan interrupted him.

"Nephew Zhang alone, can he hold them off?"

Master Pang asked.

Zheng Fa, with no choice, explained: "Zhang and I wanted to lure them into the Jiushan Sect, and use the Qingjing Bamboo to strike them down."

"...Lure them in?"

"Yes, the odds are better that way, and it also prevents outsiders from seeing the Qingjing Bamboo!"

"That’s no easy feat..."

Master Pang shook his head.

"We only hope to infuriate the other side."

"Don’t mention it, this look of disdain really seems quite genuine." Master Pang said while looking at the light screen.

"Uncle, from what I know of Sister Zhang, that expression doesn’t look like an act."

...

Outside, Zhang was already fighting with the Flood Dragon, God Transformation.

The Jiushan Seal turned into towering mountains falling from the sky, shattering clouds and bringing a fierce gale, smashing towards the demon race’s army.

Facing the overwhelming mountains, the Flood Dragon, God Transformation did not retreat. He stretched his long halberd towards the sky, and the runes flickered along its shaft.

The sea water beneath his feet surged upward, forming into a vast palm of azure waves, which effortlessly supported the nine mountain ranges.

The mountains and the sea were at a stalemate for a moment.

But the expressions on Zhang’s and the Flood Dragon’s faces were entirely different.

Zhang’s face turned pale.

The Flood Dragon, however, wore a mocking smile, seemingly suggesting that Zhang was overestimating her capabilities.

Clearly, the stalemate was affecting the two very differently.

Not only that, Zhang suddenly retracted the Jiushan Seal, guarding herself.

With a bang.

Her figure was blown backward into the Thunder Pool.

At the spot where she had just been standing, there appeared a Dharma Body of a Crab God with twin pincers and six legs.

Evidently, while Zhang and the Flood Dragon, God Transformation were in confrontation, this person also took action, attempting a sneak attack.

Zheng Fa’s heart tightened; he tapped on the Sun and Moon Clock with his index finger, and countless bolts of lightning formed a spiderweb.

The web descended in front of Zhang, just barely blocking the Crab God as he aggressively moved towards her again.

This Crab God was extremely fast, seemingly without a Magical Treasure, but with just one snap of his massive pincers, he cut through the lightning web and pursued Zhang relentlessly.

His speed was unparalleled; Zhang could only keep up a defense thanks to Zheng Fa’s protection.

But the Flood Dragon, God Transformation had already come with the other two.

...

After all, Zhang was merely a Nascent Soul, struggling against one Divinity Transformation, let alone four, her crisis multiplied, and she was on the verge of defeat. Suddenly, a glowing portal appeared behind her, enveloping her within.

The portal seemed to fear the pursuit of the demon race’s Divinity Transformations, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The demon race’s four Divinity Transformations were all stunned, halting in their steps.

"A Pocket World?"

The Crab God muttered softly.

"The Jiushan Sect does possess a Pocket World called the Jiushan Realm..." The Flood Dragon, God Transformation nodded subtly and pointed towards the Thunder Pool, "This is the transformation of the Cave Heaven Treasure."

"So, shall we..."

"No need to bother with them." The Flood Dragon, God Transformation shook his head, "Take the demon tribe’s youngsters and head to the shore. The matter of the Blood Slaughter Flag is of utmost importance!"

The Crab God appeared somewhat unwilling and said: "That female cultivator is but a mere Nascent Soul, showing such disdain to us, how can we let her go!"

"When we revive the Demon Ancestor, she will meet her end!"

Hearing this, the Crab God could only clench his teeth and nod, cursing, "Let her live a few more days then!"

The four demons gathered the demon tribe’s offspring, intending to shield them as they bypassed the Thunder Pool.

But while they were prepared to forego Zhang, she was not ready to let them go!

As they moved, the Thunder Pool also stirred!

This in itself was not an issue; the Thunder Pool was still slower than them.

However, that Nascent Soul female cultivator, after resting awhile within the realm, seemed to have recovered and would emerge every time they tried to break free from the annoying Thunder Pool, clashing with them briefly.

After a few moves and being overpowered, she would hide back inside the Jiushan Realm.

Unfortunately, in that short time, the Thunder Pool would catch up again, blocking their path anew.

"..."

This was like an annoying plaster that refused to come off, irritating the four demon race Divinity Transformations, enraging them internally without a clear resolution.

"Shall we cut through this Thunder Pool?"

One of the demon race Divinity Transformations suggested.

"That’s unwise, we might be fine, but those youngsters..." The Flood Dragon, God Transformation shook his head, looking at the demon army behind him, he said, "Right now, this is all the strength we have. You go ahead to the shore and summon the Demon Ancestor, and I’ll deal with them."

"What’s there to deal with? She’s just a Nascent Soul, so provocative towards us. We are not unfamiliar with Pocket World Spiritual Treasures. Let’s just enter the Jiushan Realm directly and flip this Thunder Pool upside down!"

Carrying anger, the Crab God was upset after being harassed by Zhang several times, and his rage needed an outlet, hence he retorted.

"That’s improper... Inside the Pocket World, we are too constrained."

As they discussed, the portal to the Jiushan Realm reappeared, and all four knew that the female cultivator was about to attack again.

By this time, they were familiar with her power and did not take her seriously, just finding her an annoyance.

But the next moment...

"How audacious!"

Zhang did not intend to engage them this time; instead, she landed amid the demon army. As a Nascent Soul with a Divinity Transformation’s treasure, she smote down with her seal, instantly killing a thousand of the weaker demon forces.

Seeing this scene, even the cautious Flood Dragon, God Transformation roared angrily. They had been expelled from Great Freedom Heaven and had no place to settle; these offspring were their descendants, as well as their reliance on invoking the Demon Ancestor.

Now this female cultivator seemed determined and unwilling to cease pursuing them.

What’s more, her way of fighting was thoroughly vexing.

Even the prudently natured Flood Dragon, God Transformation felt irritable and even angry — they had been in a dominant position before, which was why he had suggested splitting their forces.
