Chapter 3770: A Turn of Events
The ancestors of the eight organisations had yet to leave the city lord’s estate, as it had only been a short moment since Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s departure.
At this moment, they gathered in the same hall with vice city lords He Luo and Qiu Wanqian, waiting there anxiously.
Suddenly, the ancestors of the eight organisations and the two vice city lords seemed to sense something. They raised their heads and looked up. Their gazes passed through the various obstacles and directly saw the situation outside. They personally witnessed an Immortal Emperor great elder of the Void-perceiving sect being split into two by a powerful strand of sword Qi.
“It’s brother. Brother has returned…”
“Don’t tell me brother intentionally lured away the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master before turning back around to kill these people from the Void-perceiving sect?”
“That’s not very likely. Even if he draws the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master away, they can return very quickly with their speed as Immortal Exalts.”
……
…
The ancestors of the eight orgnaisations were reinvigorated, while vice city lord He Luo and Qiu Wanqian were in doubt.
The two of them were aware of the details. They knew about Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s true objective for drawing away the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master. However, what puzzled them was how Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had returned so quickly.
After all, only an extremely short amount of time had passed since he left.
“Don’t tell me the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master are both trapped?” Suddenly, He Luo and Qiu Wanqian exchanged glances. The same thought filled their heads.
At this moment, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu formed a seal with his fingers before sweeping it across the protective formation down below.
Immediately, a gate opened in the formation above the city lord’s estate.
“Everyone, charge into battle with me. Spare no one from the Void-perceiving sect.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s dignified voice rang out. Before he had even finished talking, he raised his God Tier sword and charged over aggressively.
Spurt! Spurt!
With a sweep of his sword, the heads of two Immortal Monarch elders of the Void-perceiving sect were thrown high into the air, having been beheaded in a single stroke.
Their decapitated bodies fell out of the air. They dissipated into dust at a visible rate before they had even hit the ground.
The city lord of the Immortal Rising City was an Immortal Exalt after all. He struck out furiously, so the power behind each attack was startling. He did not hold back at all. When he killed the Immortal Monarchs, the powerful sword Qi annihilated their bodies as well.
They were truly left without any remains!
“Hahaha, you hear that? Our brother is calling for us to kill the enemy.”
“Brother has returned to how he was in the past, fearless and dauntless.”
“C’mon, let’s go and kill the enemy. Didn’t you hear what brother said? We’re not going to spare any of these lackeys from the Void-perceiving sect.”
……
…
After being momentarily stunned, the two vice city lords and the ancestors of the eight organisations in the city lord’s estate suddenly returned to their senses before charging into the sky with a great laugh. They flew out through the gate in the formation and entered battle.
At the same time, various orders were passed through the clans. Shortly afterwards, experts rapidly rose up into the air from the eight organisations located in the Immortal Rising City, leaving the city through the gate in the formation and immediately entering the battle.
Even the weakest participant was an Immortal Monarch.
Immediately, a great battle erupted outside the protective formation. Powerful storms of energy swept through the surroundings, slamming against the protective formation and making it flicker.
If it came to the number of Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors, the Immortal Rising City and the Void-perceiving sect would be evenly matched. It would take a lengthy battle before they reached any outcome.
However, because Immortal Exalt Tan Yu broke the balance, the evenly-matched battle immediately became a one-sided slaughter.
Meanwhile, all was calm in the Immortal Rising City. The shockwaves from the battles were all blocked outside, unable to reach inside.
However, no one in the city managed to remain calm. Their hearts all churned.
Immortal Monarchs erupted with blood as Immortal Emperors perished directly above them, which had an unprecedented impact on some of the weaker cultivators.
“What exactly is going on? Wasn’t the Immortal Rising City besieged by the Void-perceiving sect and doomed to complete destruction? Why has the situation changed so quickly…”
“Everyone who is dying comes from the Void-perceiving sect. Where is the ancestor of the Void-perceiving sect and the Wukun Master? Where exactly have they gone?”
“The city lord of the Immortal Rising City only left recently with the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master, yet only the city lord of the Immortal Rising City returned. That’s strange. Where are the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master? Don’t tell me they’ve been trapped somewhere?”
“The Immortal Rising City’s greatest threat is not the Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Emperors from the Void-perceiving sect, but the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master. If the Immortal Rising City massacres the experts of the Void-perceiving sect like this, they won’t be able to deal with the consequences once the Void-perceiving ancestor and the Wukun Master return.”
……
…
Similar discussions unfolded throughout the Immortal Rising City. Basically everyone who had the courage to engage in these discussions came from major organisations, and they possessed impressive strength and a certain level of experience.
On the sixth floor of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance, elder Ling, elder Zhou, and elder Wang gathered together as well. They all stared at the sky; their eyes were filled with surprise and curiosity.
They too were extremely curious about what had happened when Immortal Exalt Tan Yu left momentarily. Why had the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master still not returned?
With Immortal Exalt Tan Yu personally participating, the experts of the Void-perceiving sect were basically powerless. People died constantly.
Some of the Immortal Emperors saw how disadvantageous the situation was and used secret techniques, fleeing from there after paying a hefty price.
Immortal Exalt Tan Yu and the experts of the eight organisations tried all that they could to stop them from escaping, but they still could not stop everyone.
Before long, the intense battle outside the Immortal Rising City came to a close. All of the experts that the Void-perceiving sect had sent, apart from three Immortal Emperor great elders who managed to flee at a heavy price, had perished.
“Hahaha, how satisfying. The people from the Void-perceiving sect probably never thought that it would actually end up like this…”
“They mobilised everyone in an attempt to destroy our Immortal Rising City, yet they all ended up dying here. Hahahaha, how ironic.”
……
…
Outside the Immortal Rising City, the experts of the eight organisations hovered in the air and laughed loudly. They were in high spirits.
“Brother, where is the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master?” one of the Immortal Emperor ancestors from the eight organisations asked.
