Chapter 505: Chapter 83: At Least Half [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]_1

The twilight was gloomy, and the heavy snow sealed off the mountain.

Before night fell, snow began to drift from the sky again, but this time, the snowflakes falling were all black.

"Heh, it’s finally here," Gui Lian’er looked up at the sky excitedly, his scarred face turning bright red.

"What is this?" Chu Liang asked.

"This is Sect Master’s divine skill. Wherever the black snow falls, every inch is under the Sect Master’s surveillance," Gui Lian’er explained, "If we encounter Granny Meng, we don’t need to entangle with her. As long as we expose her, the Sect Master will arrive in an instant."

The three of them quickly understood. The black snow could be likened to the divine sense of the Underworld King Sect Master, covering everything under it.

Of course, this large-scale divine skill could only observe relatively superficial information. If Granny Meng were to disguise herself, they would not be able to see through it. Therefore, it was necessary to deploy a large number of people to comb the mountain.

Thanks to Gui Lian’er’s warning.

The three of them silently took note. Within the range covered by the black snow, they couldn’t blatantly engage in any rebellious acts. They also sank their divine senses to relay this message back to their respective sects.

At this moment, they were atop a thickly snow-covered mountain, looking like ink spots on a sheet of white paper from a distance. Behind this snow mountain was the towering Sealed Cliff Mountain.

Sealed Cliff Mountain was like a normal peak that had been abruptly sliced in half. One side was rugged and rough, and the other side was nearly straight, a steep cliff. After being covered with layers of frost, it looked like a gigantic mirror standing on the snowfield.

"It is really a bit cold." Gui Lian’er muttered, "Let’s make a fire."

This place was at the northernmost edge of the North Region, the border of the extreme north, where even cultivators could feel the cold. However, a slight circulation of true qi would dispel this minor chill. What was truly uncomfortable was the chill contained in the black snow that invaded the marrow of one’s bones.

Gui Lian’er didn’t want to light an ordinary fire. He took out six charred bones from his bosom, arranged them together, and then waved his hand to ignite a cluster of cyan-gold spiritual fire.

Whoo—

The moment the flame started, a warm heat indeed dispersed the chill.

Chu Liang had just thought of lighting it for him with the Divine Dragon Fire, but fortunately, he swiftly suppressed that impulse... it was not always possible for him to light up for his older brother.

"From our sect to this Sealed Cliff Mountain, the Sect Master has set up layers of blockades. Granny Meng may not even make it here, so we don’t have to be too nervous," Gui Lian’er chuckled.

"Everyone who participated in the Shu Mountain incident got out alive, there’s nothing to be nervous about," Chu Liang smiled.

"Speaking of Shu Mountain, I’m reminded of my lifelong grudge..." Gui Lian’er’s face twisted when he thought of this, "At that time, I did see Empress Feng, but seeing her rampant actions, I dared not approach..."

"She is indeed quite terrifying," Monk Pu Shan nodded.

Chu Liang glanced at him, wondering whether or not he should report this statement back as well.

"The bald-headed monk of Yunque Temple is also hateful!" Gui Lian’er cursed again, "If it hadn’t been for them blocking Ksitigarbha’s True Body, where would Shu Mountain get their divine artifact?"

"Perhaps the people of Buddhism are just a bit more righteous..." Monk Pu Shan hesitated.

"Righteous my ass! They’re meddling busybodies!" Gui Lian’er snapped, "Those bald-headed monks will definitely not have descendants!"

"Which monk has children..." Monk Pu Shan mumbled.

Chu Liang quickly intervened, "There were too many sects involved in the Shu Mountain incident, one can only say there are no good people in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands."

"Right!" Gui Lian’er grimaced again, "If we are talking about the most hateful, it’s the Sanjue Valley. Those androgynous creatures are the heaviest-handed! I was almost killed just by watching from the edge! It’s really...

"Huh?"

Luo Yao, who had been quietly tending the fire, suddenly looked up.

"We will take revenge for what happened on Shu Mountain sooner or later!" Chu Liang hurriedly added, worrying that his companions might get angry and suddenly decide to switch sides.

But his statement was not a lie.

The grudge from the Shu Mountain Peak Conference indeed needed to be avenged, but it’s not yet decided who would seek revenge on whom.

"Right!" Gui Lian’er nodded heavily, "Revenge is a must! My biggest wish in this life is to let Empress Feng look at my face, tell her that this is the face she burned that year. It’s a pity she didn’t kill me, hahaha, then kill her with one stroke!"

Just thinking about it in his mind made Gui Lian’er’s scars turn red again, showing his deep hatred.

"I will do my best to help you fulfill this wish!" Chu Liang solemnly declared.

At least half of it.

He silently supplemented himself in his mind.

...

As the night deepened, everyone became more vigilant.

If Granny Meng really broke through close to Sealed Cliff Mountain, she would likely not dare to forcefully enter in broad daylight under heavy barriers, and the possibility of her arriving at night was even greater.

The people of the Demon Sect were more accustomed to operating under the cover of night.

Suddenly, a shout came from the distant mountains, as though there were demon beasts howling and roaring, causing a racket for a while before stopping.

"It seems that some demon beasts are causing trouble in the mountains," Chu Liang said.

However, just as that area had calmed down, heavy footsteps could suddenly be heard from the back ridge of the mountain.

They were here too!

"Roar—" No more than the blink of an eye passed, and a roar had already sounded.

Upon turning to look, they saw a giant Arctic Bear demon, over thirty feet tall, standing upright and covering the sky, filled with the anger of having its territory invaded.

This season should have been the time when the Arctic demon beasts were collectively hibernating, so the sudden appearance of this giant bear was surprising.

"Quickly deal with it," Gui Lian’er ordered.

It would be slightly troublesome to act in front of him, and Chu Liang and his group could not use their best Divine Skills.

They saw Luo Yao wave her hand and raise a huge curved knife. She was the one who needed to worry the least about restraining herself. Suddenly, her aura surged, and a black ghost shadow augmented her form, instantly transporting her above the giant bear’s head. A heavy blow from her knife descended.

Hisss—

The knife nearly severed the giant bear’s neck. If not for its thick skin and flesh and its surprising solidity, a deep wound would have burst open, and blood would have sprayed across the snow.

"Roar!" Pain induced the giant bear to let out even louder roars of rage, almost reaching a state of frenzy. It flipped over, trying to swipe at Luo Yao with its claw.

But her figure was elusive like a falling leaf, and she had already flown dozens of feet away in the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Liang’s figure leapt high into the sky and descended from the heavens, his heavy fist smashing into the giant bear’s head.

Although he too had some miscellaneous offshoot cultivation techniques, specifically prepared for disguises, now he didn’t need all that – he simply fought head-on with his physical strength.

Bang—

With one punch, he forced the giant bear to stay in place, and the arena’s situation suddenly froze.

Only when Chu Liang flipped over and landed did everyone realize that the giant bear’s legs had been smashed several feet into the snow. The whole beast was stuck there, hence its motionless state.

The divine skills they exhibited were so jumbled that if they were among the Soul Envoys under the command of the Purple Gold Marquis, they would probably be detected as unusual. Because Soul Envoys have a lineage of Divine Skill Methods, even if there are minor differences, they all relate to Soul Path.

But in the White Bone Hall, the residing demonic cultivators were originally recruited later, so it’s not unusual for them to have some cultivation techniques. As long as it’s not some exclusively secret technique of the Righteous Path, Gui Lian’er wouldn’t be too suspicious.

After they had dealt with the giant bear on their side, they heard successive roars from afar. The guarding mountains seemed to all have demon beasts coming out.

"What’s going on? Most of the Arctic demon beasts should be hibernating during this season, they shouldn’t be so active," Gui Lian’er said with concern. "If they make such a big noise, it might attract the people from the Night Blade Sect, which could cause trouble."

The reason he worried about this was that Sealed Cliff Mountain was close to the North Region’s Night Blade Sect. To the west of the Arctic Region was the North Sea, and the Night Blade Sect was on the edge of the North Sea.

Compared to Taotie City, which accepts guests from all quarters, Lunar Sect and Night Blade Sect are more representative of the style of the Northern Region’s Immortal Sects.

Indifferent, cold, ruthless.

On usual days, they might be isolated, not asking about worldly affairs and their presence was not strong. But when truly provoked, their actions made one shiver in fear.

Especially the Night Blade Sect, which is both righteous and evil, used to even undertake assassination jobs to make a living in their early years.

Among the other sect disciples, there might be some naive ones, who can be bullied by the demonic cultivators through their rich life experience. But the disciples of the Night Blade Sect were all hardened by life on the edge of a blade, making even the Underworld King Sect extremely cautious.

"If the demon beasts cause too much commotion, the Night Blade Sect might indeed come to exterminate them and disrupt our operation," Chu Liang echoed. "Should we retreat then?"

"Of course not," Gui Lian’er said. "The Sect Master would not allow this plan to fail. Even if people from the Night Blade Sect come, we’ll have to drive them away! At that time, a battle might be unavoidable..."

With a solemn expression, he warned, "If we do end up in a fight with the people of the Night Blade Sect, you must be careful of their Night Blade’s Three Styles..."
