Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation

Chapter 693: Chapter 548: Mad Pursuit_2

With half an hour’s time, the Golden Elixir Masters within the Immortal State Mansion would have likely already ground the opposition to dust.

How could they possibly allow them to continue attacking the Mansion’s Great Array?

The barrier produced by the activation of the state mansion’s Great Array was rapidly enveloping the entire Mansion.

Seeing this development, whether it was the four Golden Elixir Masters who had gone to pursue their foe, He Song, or the other Golden Elixir Master who stayed in place,

a hint of a smile appeared on their faces at this moment.

They knew.

Once the state mansion’s Great Array was fully activated and its barrier completely enveloped the Mansion,

it would be the end of that Golden Elixir Master from the God Locking Sect.

The barrier that arose when the state mansion’s Great Array was initiated could be seen not just by He Song and the others.

The Locking God Cultivator, who was rapidly fleeing aboard his spirit artifact flying boat and hoping to escape the Green Moon Immortal State Mansion before the Golden Elixir Masters could react, could also see it.

However, the expression that surfaced on his face upon seeing the colossal barrier rising ahead was far from joy.

Instead, it was full of bitterness.

He knew.

Once the Great Array of the state mansion was fully operational, and the vast barrier covered the entire Green Moon Immortal State Mansion,

if he still hadn’t left the range of the Green Moon Immortal State Mansion by then, only doom would await him.

As a Locking God Cultivator,

in the midst of today’s successive great battles between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect,

if he were to be trapped by several Golden Elixir Masters within this small Green Moon State Mansion,

there would be only one outcome awaiting him.

That would be death.

Therefore, upon seeing a barrier rising on the distant horizon and about to completely seal his way forward,

a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.

Facing a life-and-death crisis, he didn’t hesitate to act.

Sitting within the flying boat, as he deployed his spirit artifact, a series of incredibly fierce attacks crossed the vast distance rapidly and landed on the distant barrier.

He hoped to delay the formation of the barrier slightly to gain some time for his escape.

The spirit artifact flying boat was extremely fast.

Even in just an instant, it could traverse an enormous distance.

One could say,

his plan had no issues.

As long as he could slightly hinder the formation speed of the barrier, his chances of escaping would increase.

However,

in the Cultivation World, everything depends on one’s own strength.

Without sufficient power, it would be impossible to shake a powerful state mansion’s Great Array.

His attacks were like throwing mud into the ocean, causing no ripples on the barrier whatsoever.

The barrier of the state mansion’s Great Array continued to close at its original speed, undisturbed.

Until the state mansion’s Great Array barrier was completely closed,

a series of heavenly thunders struck down, plunging the Locking God Cultivator into utter despair.

These heavenly thunders were part of the state mansion’s Great Array’s sky-sealing magic.

When the thunder struck the flying boat, it would hinder the normal operation of the boat, causing it to lose power and effectively ‘seal’ it from flight.

As a result, when the heavenly thunder struck, the Locking God Cultivator’s flying boat was immediately brought down.

He had no choice but to retract the boat, transforming into tunneling light to continue moving forward.

However, the path ahead was already blocked.

Pursuers were on his tail.

From time to time, heavenly thunders would fall from the sky, hindering his advancing steps.

Under such circumstances, the Locking God Cultivator saw that escape was impossible.

With the relentless approach of the four Golden Elixir Masters, a fierce Golden Core Great Battle soon erupted within the Green Moon Immortal State Mansion.

Having no path of retreat,

the Golden Elixir Master from the God Locking Sect displayed all his trump cards in a life-and-death crisis, managing momentarily to confound the four attacking Golden Elixir Masters.

But to any discerning eye,

his bravery was nothing more than the struggles of a dying man.

When his mana was greatly depleted, with no way to break through the encirclement of the four Golden Elixir Masters, his death was certain.

With the four Golden Elixir Masters attacking together,

Occasionally, thunder would strike down from the heavens.

This encirclement and ambush was unstoppable.

Even if one’s cultivation were only at the Golden Elixir Early Stage, let alone reaching the Golden Core Middle Stage, one would likely meet their demise on the spot.

After all, among the four Golden Elixir Masters besieging this person, there were also two at the Golden Core Middle Stage.

Regarding this,

He Song watched from a distance, but did not join in.

Although he personally instigated this battle, the credit and benefits that would follow had almost nothing to do with him.

Had it not been for the appearance of Meng Guan and Wei Fan, and their realization that something was amiss with the Purple Light Pavilion, deciding to do something about it, He Song would probably not have bothered with the matter at all.

In Biyue Prefecture, no matter what happened, it had nothing to do with He Song.

Whether it was the invasion of this place by the Locking God Sect, or any other incident,

it had nothing to do with He Song, who did not reside here for long.

After all, He Song’s cave mansion was currently located in the Hu State, under the jurisdiction of the Purple Cloud Sect.

Although not far from the Sun Faction’s Green Moon Immortal State, it was already a different Nascent Soul Sect.

He Song, being in Hu State, was naturally not affected by affairs of the Green Moon Immortal State.

He Song initiated this affair for a reason.

Mainly because of Meng Guan and Wei Fan.

Meng Guan and Wei Fan, being elders of the Sun Faction, had emerged with distinction during the great battle between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect.

Now encountering such an incident, they would surely want to intervene.

What if this incident turned out to be the turning point in the battle between the Sun Faction and the God Locking Sect?

If the Locking God Sect were to occupy Green Moon Immortal State, then the Sun Faction would likely have to pay a much greater price.

Under such circumstances, if He Song did not act, the two would certainly continue to investigate the matter.

Therefore,

rather than let them take the risk of exposing their identities and being pursued by the Locking God Sect to investigate in secret and personally resolve the issue with great difficulty,

it was better for He Song to take action himself, leading a group to resolve this matter through force.

By doing so, not only would a great deal of time be saved, but there would also be no need for the two to risk exposing their identities.

As for He Song, he was merely making the acquaintance of the Golden Core Masters from Biyue Prefecture and observing their actions.

The impact on He Song himself was not significant.

After all,

he had already been in Biyue Prefecture for over two months.

During this time, he had made the acquaintance of several Golden Elixir Masters.

Among the five Golden Elixir Masters who had followed him here, three had made his acquaintance.

These three were Gold Core Cultivators from the three major Golden Core Families within Biyue Prefecture.

He Song’s acquaintance with them was due to True Monarchs Luo Jing and Yun Jing.

And these three were also why He Song previously felt that he could send messages to the Master Guardians of the place.

Since He Song had already made acquaintances with these three,

it was naturally not a problem to become acquainted with the two Master Guardians behind them.

The current He Song,

had already reached the Golden Core Middle Stage in his cultivation, no longer the cautious Early Jindan Stage cultivator he used to be.

Having reached the Golden Core Middle Stage, He Song was ready to make the acquaintance of more Golden Elixir Masters.

This was also the reason he had come here to make acquaintances with the local Golden Elixir Masters.

After attaining sufficient strength, it was better to interact more with others than to work in isolation.

On this occasion, what He Song did

would indeed spark a heated discussion within Biyue Prefecture.

But since He Song did not make a move,

according to his estimation, the cultivators of Biyue Prefecture should not focus too much attention on him.

The few Golden Elixir Masters who fought fiercely within Biyue Prefecture and eventually even slew a Gold Core Cultivator were the ones who would become the talk of the incident.

As for himself?

He was merely an onlooker.

No one would fix their gaze on him.

After a brief deliberation and concluding that the matter would not have a significant impact on him, He Song felt reassured in his heart.

With this action, not only could he satisfy the wishes of Meng Guan and Wei Fan by thoroughly resolving this issue,

he could also…
