Chapter 587: 492 Attack on Tianyuan City_1

A vast and endless plain where five Nascent Soul Cultivators were battling, numerous giant pits emitting black smoke became visible.

Two men and a woman stood on a mound, enveloped by a blue light screen whose spiritual light had dimmed. Ye Hongyao was also inside, her face pale.

Ye Hongyao was at the middle stage of Nascent Soul. They had been discovered by heterodox cultivators, and after a fierce battle, the casualties were severe.

Opposite them stood a tall man in a golden robe and a full-figured woman in a purple dress.

"Finish them off quickly."

The man in the golden robe spoke with a deep voice, his face filled with murderous intent.

"Scatter and run for your lives! It’s all down to who has the most luck now."

Ye Hongyao suggested.

"Thinking of running? Did you ask us? Stay where you are!"

The woman in the purple dress sneered.

Her voice held a mysterious power; as Ye Hongyao and the other two heard it, they felt drowsy and the environment before their eyes began to blur.

Purple Charm Melody!

Before they had recovered their senses, an enormous golden brick, magnified in size, appeared above their heads and smashed down towards them.

Just then, a surge of red firelight emerged from the void, quickly coalescing into a huge red palm that struck the golden brick.

The golden brick was flung away, crashing heavily into the ground.

"Manipulating nature’s spiritual energy, this is bad, it’s a Soul Transformation Cultivator, run!"

The man in the golden robe’s face changed drastically, he shouted in alarm.

Just at that moment, two yellow lights burst forth from the ground, heading straight for the man in the golden robe and the woman in the purple dress.

As they were about to dodge, a strange and extreme screeching sound rang out, their heads felt heavy, and dizziness and slowed reaction set in.

The yellow light entered their bodies, causing them pain, but they soon returned to normal.

A silver escape light appeared in the distant sky. With a flash, it stopped and revealed a flying boat twinkling with silver light.

Shen Long and his group of six stood on it, their expressions varied.

"Senior Shen!"

Ye Hongyao saw Shen Long and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What about the others? Do you know the whereabouts of anyone else?"

Shen Long asked.

"No idea, we were separated from the others."

Ye Hongyao replied truthfully.

"Tell us in detail what led to the front lines collapsing."

Huo Tianxing instructed.

"This is Taoist Friend Huo from the Lower Realm of the Spiritual Pivot, they are here to assist us against the Tianyuan Tribe. Do not hide anything, tell the whole story."

Shen Long reminded.

Ye Hongyao agreed and recounted the events truthfully.

Yuan Rui wasn’t killed, Ice Silkworm True Person and Han Yuwei had escaped, but Ye Hongyao did not know where they were either.

The man in the red robe landed on the ground and began to Soul Search the man in the golden robe and the woman in the purple dress, who stayed motionless, cooperating passively.

"She’s telling the truth, the Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Tianyuan Tribe are purging Human Cultivators in the Tianyuan Realm."

The man in the red robe said.

"First, find somewhere safe to hide. Once we’ve dealt with the Tianyuan Tribe’s Soul Transformation Cultivator, you’ll be able to move freely again."

Huo Tianxing instructed.

Ye Hongyao and the other two agreed, showing respectful expressions.

"Friend Ye, these two Spiritual Treasures are for your protection. Be very careful."

Shen Long took out two Spiritual Treasures and handed them to Ye Hongyao.

"Thank you, Senior Shen."

Ye Hongyao expressed her gratitude and accepted the Spiritual Treasure.

Shen Long gave them several words of caution before they left.

The man in the red garment pinched a spell, and the woman in the purple dress conjured a purple-glowing Flying Boat.

"They won’t give themselves away, will they?"

Cha Sen said with some worry.

"They are controlled by fourth-tier soul-controlling insects, and their Life-Bound Lamps have not been extinguished. Unless a Soul Transformation Cultivator personally investigates, no abnormalities will be detected. Junior Brother Lin, you and Taoist Friend Shen infiltrate together, while we assault Tianyuan City from the outside, coordinating our attack from inside and outside."

Huo Tianxing instructed.

Shen Long and a tall gold-robed youth agreed to the task; both were practitioners of Body Cultivation with formidable physical strength.

They walked onto the purple Flying Boat, and the gold-robed youth summoned a Banner Flag that glinted with golden light. With a gentle shake, a swath of golden radiance swept by, and the two of them vanished, leaving only the woman in the purple dress and the man in the gold garment on the Flying Boat.

The woman in the purple dress pinched a spell, and the purple Flying Boat soared into the sky at a great speed.

Half a month later, the speed of the purple Flying Boat slowed as Tianyuan City loomed ahead.

The city gates were wide open, and a team of Nascent Soul Cultivators stood atop the city wall.

"Taoist Friend Bian, Madam Tu, you have returned so soon."

A guard greeted them.

"We came back after dealing with the Human Cultivators. If you have the time, you should also go after them; you could make a fortune."

The woman in the purple dress spoke.

"We definitely will if we find the time," the guard responded, allowing them to enter without obstruction. Cultivators were coming and going, a scene of bustling activity.

After entering Tianyuan City, the man in the gold robe and the woman in the purple dress arrived at a secluded courtyard with green tiles, inside of which stood a three-story green pavilion.

Above Tianyuan City, a mass of crimson flames surged forth, then suddenly condensed into an immense red hand that struck down.

"Not good, it’s an enemy attack! Be cautious and on alert, we’re under attack."

An urgent male voice rang out, spreading throughout the entire Tianyuan City as a thick, golden barrier appeared, displaying a lightning bolt pattern and enveloping the entire city.

The red hand smashed against the golden barrier, producing a dull thud, but the barrier remained unmoved.

A silver Flying Boat approached from afar, with Huo Tianxing and three others standing atop it, their expressions icy cold.

"So, disciples of the Big Dipper Pavilion have descended to The Lower Realm too? Quite the lively scene!"

An icy cold male voice resounded.

Yin Hao and a dozen other Soul Transformation Cultivators emerged from their dwellings and took their places atop the city wall.

"Why can’t we, if you have managed to descend?"

Huo Tianxing replied coolly.

"Hmph, had you not planned to attack our kin, we wouldn’t have descended either," Yin Hao taunted.

"Don’t be absurd. When your kin invaded other realms, why didn’t you speak up then? And now you come out playing the innocent? It’s utterly laughable," Huo Tianxing retorted.

"So confident with only four Soul Transformation Cultivators daring to come here! If I’m not mistaken, you have Soul Transformation Cultivators who have infiltrated the city, planning to strike from both inside and outside, right?"

Yin Yue said with a smug smile, clearly pleased with herself.

They had anticipated this move, which explained the relaxed defense.

Huo Tianxing remained silent, pinched a sword spell, and the lid of the Sword Box opened, from which nine silver Flying Swords flew out, hovering above his head.

As his spell changed, the nine silver Flying Swords emitted piercing sword cries. Identical silver Flying Swords materialized one after another, amounting to over a thousand, creating a feeling that made one’s scalp tingle.

The thousand silver Flying Swords surged towards Tianyuan City, with Cha Sen and the other two also launching their attacks on the city.

An earthshaking roar of a beast erupted, and a hundred-zhang-tall Yellow Giant Ape appeared, with the gold-robed youth also revealing his presence.

Since the enemy was aware of their strategy, there was no need to hide any longer.

No sooner had they revealed themselves, than a clap of thunder sounded, and two thick silver lightning bolts tore through the sky, striking at the Yellow Giant Ape and the gold-robed youth.
