Becoming An Immortal Begins With Marrying A Wife

Chapter 239, Sixth Concubine! Lord Zongzhu Xiao Qingyue (12)

At the boundary between the Heaven and Earth Sect and the Mysterious Yellow Sect, the flying boats of the two sects hovered in the air, only a few miles apart, and the battle between the two sects erupted.

"Buzz--" x9

Nine sounds of breaking through the air were heard as Xiao Qingyue and eight core elders took the lead, wielding their swords and swiftly attacking the flying boat of the Mysterious Yellow Sect.

On the side of the Mysterious Yellow Sect, several strongest individuals also emerged almost at the same time to confront them.

The strongest forces of both sides flew towards the distant sky in agreement, choosing to open up another battlefield, leaving the ground for the weaker Gold Core cultivators to fight on.

Afterwards, the remaining Nascent Soul early and mid-stage powerhouses from both sides followed closely behind.

"Xian'er, don't come over to Master's side. The aftermath of the battle may harm you," Xiao Qingyue immediately transmitted her voice to Ning Xian'er to warn her.

Upon hearing this, Ning Xian'er stopped flying and did not continue forward.

And in that instant when she stopped!

A huge and sharp stone pillar suddenly broke through the ground below her and aimed directly at her vital area.

"Boom!"

Ning Xian'er quickly took out a Eight Trigrams Plate emitting a Dao aura and successfully blocked the impact of the stone pillar with her Entering Spirit power.

However, the stone pillars were far from just one. The attack just now was just a simple appetizer.

Before Ning Xian'er could catch her breath, dozens or even hundreds of stone pillars suddenly broke through the ground, densely attacking her delicate and slender body without any mercy.

"Boom... Boom... Boom!"

For a moment, the sound of hard objects colliding was continuous.

Ning Xian'er wrapped herself in the Eight Trigrams Plate, barely withstanding the attack of all the stone pillars.

However, this barrage of stone pillar attacks was continuous and immensely powerful.

Although Ning Xian'er was a Nascent Soul cultivator, she soon found it difficult to bear the impact and cracks began to appear on the Eight Trigrams Plate that protected her.

Given enough time, the Eight Trigrams Plate was destined to shatter into pieces.

"Xian'er!"

Seeing the situation, Xiao Qingyue instinctively shouted, and at the same time, her spiritual power burst forth as she attempted to use a teleportation array to teleport to Ning Xian'er's side and help her escape.

Unfortunately, the teleportation array had just been generated and had not been activated yet when it was destroyed by a swift attack of sword light, instantly dissipating in mid-air, rendering it unable to be used for teleportation.

"Lord Xiao, as strong cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage, there is no need for us to intervene in the battles between cultivators in the early and mid Nascent Soul stages."

As he spoke, Zhang Tianhe directly used the "Void Walk" technique to instantly appear behind Xiao Qingyue, wielding his fifth-grade Law Weapon, the "Bloodthirsty Qilin Blade," and slashing towards her waist.

This slash was infused with majestic spiritual power.

The blade emitted sparks of ions.

Under this slash, either death or severe injury awaited.

"Crack!"

Suddenly, a sound of the air instantly freezing was heard.

The "Bloodthirsty Qilin Blade" in Zhang Tianhe's hand was frozen in mid-air, just a fraction of an inch away from Xiao Qingyue's waist, with a layer of hard ice forming on the blade.

And as soon as this layer of ice appeared, it instantly spread to Zhang Tianhe's whole body, freezing him into an ice sculpture.

"Clang!"

Xiao Qingyue raised her hand and flicked a pale jade finger, striking the ice sculpture.

In the next moment, several cracking sounds were heard!

Zhang Tianhe, who had been frozen into an ice sculpture, instantly shattered into pieces and fell from the sky.

"Heh, useless."

Xiao Qingyue sneered coldly, not even bothering to glance at Zhang Tianhe's corpse, and instantly activated the teleportation array to appear next to Ning Xian'er, slashing her sword into the ground below her.

"Boom!"

The sword light landed on the ground, instantly causing the earth to collapse and a deep bottomless trench to appear.

At the same time, a figure covered in blood, with shattered bones throughout his body, "popped" out from deep underground, then "thumped" onto the ground, barely clinging to life.

This was a Nascent Soul fifth-level cultivator who specialized in the Earth Spiritual Root, and he was an elder of the Mysterious Yellow Sect's Law Enforcement Hall.

However, this formidable powerhouse in the Mysterious Yellow Sect, who was feared by everyone, was unable to even block a single sword strike from Xiao Qingyue and was directly gravely injured, on the verge of death.

"Let me send you off. Farewell."

Xiao Qingyue's voice was extremely cold, and at the moment her words fell, she swung her sword towards the Mysterious Yellow Sect's Law Enforcement Hall elder on the ground.

And just as the sword light was about to descend, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of the Mysterious Yellow Sect's Law Enforcement Hall elder, blocking Xiao Qingyue's sword.

After seeing the face of the figure, Xiao Qingyue couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly and said, "Zhang Tianhe, you're not dead?"

"Lord Xiao, do you have any misunderstandings about me?" Zhang Tianhe smiled and said, "We are both cultivators at the eighth level of Nascent Soul. Do you really think you can defeat me with just one move? Are you overestimating yourself or underestimating me?"

"Of course, I underestimate you."

Xiao Qingyue didn't waste any more words. After saying this, a hint of blue light appeared in her eyes.

Immediately, the ground beneath Zhang Tianhe's feet froze instantly, and any living beings within the range were frozen solid.

As for Zhang Tianhe, his lower body was frozen to the ground, no matter how he tried to use his escape technique, it was useless.

Because the layer of ice on his feet had the same effect as Haishilu, it could absorb the spiritual energy within the person it attached to.

"Master, save me!"

Zhang Tianhe stopped pretending and directly begged for help from Cao Dian in the distance.

However, at this moment, Cao Dian was being besieged by several core elders of the Heaven and Earth Sect and couldn't spare any hands to save him.

In other places, the cultivators of the Mysterious Yellow Sect were also being suppressed and casualties were constantly occurring at the hands of the cultivators of the Heaven and Earth Sect.

The balance of victory in this battle between the two sects had already tilted towards the side of the Heaven and Earth Sect.

"Zhang Tianhe, if I can't kill you once, then I'll kill you a second time, a third time, a fourth time... until you're dead."

Xiao Qingyue's voice was cold and chilling.

As soon as she finished speaking, countless ice spikes formed around her, shooting towards Zhang Tianhe on the ground.

At this critical moment, Zhang Tianhe roared to the sky,

"Earth Dragon Clan, show yourselves!"

As soon as he said that, the ground covered in ice suddenly trembled violently.

Then, the layer of ice shattered!

Countless giant lizards covered in sturdy armor emerged from the ground, joining the battlefield as a third party.

These so-called lizards were members of the Earth Dragon Clan, a demonic race famous for their strong defense.

"Boom... Boom... Boom!"

The ice spikes that were originally aimed at Zhang Tianhe were all blocked by a giant earth dragon standing in front of him.

The powerful ice spikes fell on its sturdy armor without leaving a single scratch.

It was completely unharmed!

Seeing this scene, Xiao Qingyue instantly became serious.

Ning Xian'er, who had finally managed to free herself from the thousands of stone pillars, flew to Xiao Qingyue's side and hovered there.

She looked at the earth dragons all over the ground, her delicate and pretty face filled with astonishment.

"Master, what's going on?"

"What else could it be? Mysterious Yellow Sect has joined forces with the Earth Dragon Clan."

"How can humans ally with demons?"

Ning Xian'er was full of indignation.

Since ancient times, humans and demons have been at odds with each other.

The actions of the Mysterious Yellow Sect secretly colluding with the Earth Dragon Clan violated the principles of the human race!

Xiao Qingyue didn't respond, but instead spread her divine sense to the maximum, instantly covering the entire battlefield, observing the situation on the battlefield.

The addition of the Earth Dragon Clan instantly increased the combat power of the Mysterious Yellow Sect by dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators and over a hundred Gold Core cultivators, completely changing the outcome of this battle.

From the situation where the Heaven and Earth Sect was suppressing the Mysterious Yellow Sect just now, it quickly turned into the situation where the Heaven and Earth Sect was now being suppressed by the Mysterious Yellow Sect and the Earth Dragon Clan, retreating step by step.

In the blink of an eye, several Nascent Soul powerhouses in the Heaven and Earth Sect were captured or even killed.

The situation on the entire battlefield took a sharp turn for the worse.

Except for a few core elders, most of the people in the Heaven and Earth Sect had lost their fighting spirit.

"Boom—"

The seventh elder, in a moment of carelessness, was slapped into the ground by a claw of an earth dragon that emerged from the ground, and was instantly entangled by more than ten earth dragons.

He fought back desperately, but the defense of the earth dragons was too strong. Under the same cultivation level, he couldn't cause any effective damage to them.

"Elder, save me!!!"

The seventh elder shouted in panic. If no one came to help him, he would perish.

The elder heard this cry for help.

But at this moment, he was fighting against several other core elders, Cao Dian, and a group of earth dragons. He could barely withstand their attacks.

Once he left the battle to rescue them, those core elders around him would all die at the hands of Cao Dian.

"Cao Dian, you secretly colluded with the Mysterious Yellow Sect and the demons. You are unworthy of being a member of the human race!"

"You have betrayed the human race. Even if you win this battle, you will be held accountable afterwards!"

"You're finished!"

The elder was furious and couldn't help but curse out loud.

Cao Dian laughed and dismissed it, saying, "These are all minor issues. As long as I kill all the people from your Heaven and Earth Sect, who will know?"

After speaking, he joined forces with several Nascent Soul stage earth dragons nearby, intensifying their attacks and causing the elder and his companions to retreat, unable to withstand them.

On the battlefield, the cultivators of the Heaven and Earth Sect had completely lost their fighting spirit.

Many were retreating while fighting, trying to leave the battlefield.

Many of the Heaven and Earth Sect cultivators who managed to leave the central battlefield immediately used sound transmission techniques or communication Law Weapons to call for reinforcements.

However, the battlefield had already been sealed off by the Mysterious Yellow Sect, blocking all forms of communication.

The news on the battlefield couldn't be transmitted at all!

"Buzz—"

Xiao Qingyue accelerated towards the seventh elder, wielding the Xuanyuan Sword to engage in close combat with the earth dragons, aiming to break through their strong defenses and rescue the seventh elder.

Ning Xian'er wanted to help.

But she was instantly stopped by Xiao Qingyue, who said, "Those earth dragons are not something you can handle. Go support elsewhere, save whoever you can, don't linger in battle, your own safety comes first!"

"I understand, Master."

Ning Xian'er pursed her lips and didn't hesitate too much. She chose to follow Xiao Qingyue's arrangement and moved to another less intense battlefield for rescue.

As time passed, the casualties of the Heaven and Earth Sect continued to increase.

Of the nearly a thousand people who had initially set out on the flying boat, less than seven hundred remained, with a shocking death rate of thirty percent.

Seeing that the situation was lost, the elder decisively shouted:

"Retreat!"

"Everyone, retreat to the sect!"

"Don't linger in battle, preserve your lives!"

"Retreat!"

The two sects had already lost this battle.

Upon hearing the elder's shouts, the cultivators of the Heaven and Earth Sect all ran back frantically.

As long as they could retreat to the Heaven and Earth Sect and be protected by the sect's defensive formation, they would be safe.

"Chase them all!"

"Kill all the people from the Heaven and Earth Sect!"

"Don't leave anyone alive!"

Cao Dian shouted loudly, leading the pursuit.

Seeing this, the elder made a tough decision and said to the core elders beside him, "We will stay behind and buy time for the others to retreat to the sect!"

The core elders had no objections and stayed behind to hold the line.

Except for one, the second elder.

At this moment, the second elder did not stay behind to hold the line with them. Instead, he quickly flew back to the Heaven and Earth Sect on his flying sword.

The elder was puzzled and shouted at him, "Guan Changtian, what are you doing?"

Before he could finish speaking, Cao Dian led a group of pursuers and surrounded him and the core elders.

While besieging them, Cao Dian said with a mocking tone, "You may not believe it, but your second elder, Guan Changtian, has already been bought by me. He rushed back to the Heaven and Earth Sect to remove your defensive formation."

"You treacherous scoundrel, don't try to sow discord!" the third elder angrily rebuked.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the defensive formation of the Heaven and Earth Sect behind them was indeed removed!

Countless earth dragons entered the Heaven and Earth Sect and unleashed a massacre inside.

"Guan Changtian!"

The elder gnashed his teeth and let out a furious roar.

Then, he left the battlefield and fled madly, abandoning the Heaven and Earth Sect behind him.

In this battle, the Heaven and Earth Sect was destined to be annihilated.

It was not worth staying behind to be buried with it.

A swift retreat was the right choice.

Several other core elders were stunned when they saw the Grand Elder suddenly run away.

But even though they were stunned for a moment, the Third Elder was beheaded by Cao Dian with a single sword strike. His head fell from the sky and was swallowed by a Nascent Soul stage Earth Dragon.

However, the Third Elder did not die just because he lost his head.

Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators are not so fragile.

In the instant his body separated, the Third Elder abandoned his physical body and flew out in a state of disembodied soul, desperately trying to escape.

"Escape? Let's see where you can escape to!"

Cao Dian was ruthless and did not spare the Third Elder because of this.

With a thought, he took out a Soul Nurturing Banner and quickly caught up, capturing the Third Elder's soul as a banner slave.

"Cao Sect Master, I am willing to submit!"

The Fourth Elder was flexible and chose to surrender when he saw the situation.

However, Cao Dian ignored him completely and immediately started killing, capturing the Fourth Elder's soul in the Soul Nurturing Banner as well.

"As long as we can kill all the people from the Heaven and Earth Sect and capture them in the Soul Nurturing Banner, the mid-stage Soul Formation will be within reach."

Cao Dian smiled and led the disciples of the Mysterious Yellow Sect and the Earth Dragon clan behind him, rushing into the Heaven and Earth Sect to unleash a massacre on the disciples inside.

...

In the Cave Mansion area of the steward, there was a Cave Mansion with the word "Stability" on it.

Xiao Qingyue, with a distressed expression, controlled her flying sword and tried to rush into Chen An's Cave Mansion. However, in the instant she was about to enter, she was blocked by an invisible barrier.

It was a life-and-death formation.

Except for Chen An himself and his wife and daughter, anyone whose cultivation was lower than his would be blocked by the formation.

"What's going on!"

"Why can't I enter!"

"It's a formation!"

"It's a formation!"

"What a powerful formation!"

"That person's strength is even stronger than I imagined. The Heaven and Earth Sect has hope!"

In just a brief moment, Xiao Qingyue's mind was filled with countless thoughts, shocked by the defensive formation surrounding Chen An's Cave Mansion, excited that Chen An's strength was so powerful, and realizing that the Heaven and Earth Sect had hope.

She adjusted her spiritual power, amplified her voice, and shouted into the Cave Mansion, "Steward Chen, please help save the Heaven and Earth Sect!"

Soon, Chen An inside the Cave Mansion transmitted his voice to her, "The Mysterious Yellow Sect and the Earth Dragon clan are joining forces and coming aggressively. Why should I take the risk to help you?"

Xiao Qingyue replied, "Steward Chen, you are also a member of the Heaven and Earth Sect!"

"When disaster strikes, everyone looks out for themselves. I have only been a member of the Heaven and Earth Sect for a few years and have never had a sense of belonging. I can leave the Heaven and Earth Sect with my family at any time and find another place to survive."

Chen An was already prepared to help save the Heaven and Earth Sect, but he refused to do so unconditionally, creating a sense of crisis for Xiao Qingyue.

Xiao Qingyue was also a ruthless person. She directly knelt down at the entrance of the Cave Mansion and pleaded through voice transmission, "Steward Chen, as long as you are willing to help, I agree to be with the Holy Maiden and provide assistance!"

Chen An smiled and replied, "Whether you agree or not, I can be with the Holy Maiden, and I don't need your so-called assistance."

Xiao Qingyue felt hopeless.

She had grown up in the Heaven and Earth Sect since she was young and had a strong sense of belonging to it.

It could be said that the Heaven and Earth Sect was her roots.

The Heaven and Earth Sect could lose her, but she could not lose the Heaven and Earth Sect.

"Steward Chen, what do I need to do for you to help?"

Xiao Qingyue continued to plead.

She knew that Chen An had not left yet and was still willing to talk to her here, which meant that he definitely had plans to take action.

However, his action might require certain conditions.

After a while, Chen An inside the Cave Mansion transmitted his voice, "I only take risks for my wife and daughter."

Xiao Qingyue understood.

She lightly bit her thin lips and then transmitted back with a touch of desolation, "I am willing to become Steward Chen's concubine. Please help save the Heaven and Earth Sect!"

"I only marry pure and virtuous women."

"I may be a thousand years old, but I am still a virgin!"

Xiao Qingyue's voice was filled with acceptance.
