Chapter 4782 A Triumph?

Iron Tree Yin God adopted a very humble posture, and given that his cultivation level was only at the first level of Earth Saint, it was difficult for Zhu Rong to suspect him.

"follow me!"

Zhu Rong spent a long time recruiting, but few people were willing to join them. Since Tie Shu took the initiative to join, it saved them time.

It took half an hour to finally gather ten people, with two extra as backups.

"This journey is fraught with danger. Once inside, remember not to stray from us, and follow our orders at all times. Anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy!"

Zhu Rong addressed everyone.

The ten Earth Saints who joined each had their own agendas. Most of them could tell that Zhu Rong and his group had a purpose, but they were not clear about it yet. They were all thinking about finding a way to get rid of Zhu Rong and his group after they went in.

Even the most powerful and holy beings dare to venture deep into it, so why wouldn't they? This is the principle behind the saying that fortune and honor are found in danger.

"Please rest assured, senior, we will definitely abide by the rules."

Immediately, someone stepped forward, walked up to Zhu Rong with a fawning expression, and acted like a complete lapdog.

"Let's go in!"

Jia Yu glanced at the ten people and was fairly satisfied. Their cultivation levels were mostly between the first and fifth levels of Earth Saint, which was neither too high nor too low, making them easy to control.

Tang Kun glanced at everyone, his gaze finally settling on the face of the Iron Tree Yin God. For some reason, he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from this man.

"Brother Tang, have you noticed something's amiss?"

Zhu Rong walked over at this moment and asked Tang Kun.

Do you know this person's background?

Tang Kun secretly sent a telepathic message to Zhu Rong, wanting to know how he had persuaded this person.

"His name is Tieshu, and he volunteered himself. Does Brother Tang know this person?"

Zhu Rong did not hide anything and recounted how Tie Shu had volunteered himself.

"I can't explain it in detail, but this person seems a bit unusual, so we should be careful."

Tang Kun used his divine sense to examine the iron tree several times. Apart from the fact that its internal energy was slightly different from that of a normal person, he did not find anything else abnormal.

Everyone practices different techniques, and some people have an aura that is different from that of ordinary people; these are all normal phenomena.

Jia Yu started urging them on, so Zhu Rong had no choice but to stop communicating with Tang Kun. The two quickly followed and sped towards the depths of the sect.

Shortly after they left, an uproar broke out outside.

"Do you think they've found a way to break the great formation? Otherwise, why would they brazenly barge into it?"

There was much discussion outside, and some of the cultivators who had been invited were now regretting not entering the formation with Zhu Rong and the others.

"Since they all dare to go in, why shouldn't we? Inside lies a fragmented Saint Yuan Vein. Don't you want to break through to the Profound Saint Realm, leave the Heavenly Domain, and return to the Ancient God Domain?"

There were also many top-tier Earth Saint powerhouses present. They had lived for countless years and were already tired of life in the Heavenly Realm, only wanting to return to the Desolate Ancient God Realm.

“That’s right. Even the Supreme Earth Saint dares to go deep into the realm. What do we have to be afraid of? If we can’t break through to the Profound Saint Realm, we’ll turn into a handful of dust sooner or later.”

Many cultivators have little lifespan left, are unable to break through their cultivation realms, and can only slowly grow old.

A golden opportunity is before us; if we miss it, we'll never have another chance like it.

Perhaps influenced by the emotions of these people, many cultivators hardened their hearts and decided to venture in and give it a try.

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, several hundred cultivators followed closely behind Jia Yu and his group, heading towards the depths of the vast Bagua Sect. However, the route they chose avoided Jia Yu and his companions.

Following behind Jia Yu and the others, they definitely wouldn't get any advantages. The Bagua Sect is so big that even if tens of thousands of people went in, they couldn't take over the entire sect.

Watching the disciples of the Eight Trigrams Sect charge towards them one by one, Liu Wuxie remained expressionless. This was a typical example of the herd mentality.

Once someone takes the lead, countless others will follow suit, even knowing that danger lies ahead.

Using the Ancient Cat Demon Technique, Liu Wuxie transformed into a shooting star and quickly caught up with Jia Yu and the others. Since they knew about the situation in the Eight Trigrams Sect, they must know where the treasure was hidden.

Upon reaching the edge of the Bagua Sect, Liu Wuxie paused briefly. With his fourth-level Xuan Sheng divine soul, he sensed the fluctuations of the great formation, which ordinary people could not perceive at all.

In the blink of an eye, Jia Yu had led everyone deep into the Bagua Sect, heading towards the complete main hall in the distance.

After entering the Bagua Sect, Liu Wuxie did not rush to act, but looked outwards. Strangely, all the cultivators who had been standing outside the sect had disappeared. An invisible energy seemed to have isolated the Bagua Sect from the outside world.

"The primary task is to find my wife and Pu Yu."

Instead of searching for treasures, Liu Wuxie took out a communication jade talisman and sent messages to his wife Xu Lingxue and Pu Yu, inquiring about their whereabouts.

The Bagua School covers a vast area; searching inch by inch would take ten days to half a month to reach every corner.

At this moment, dozens of people are gathered in a secret room. They include Xu Lingxue, Pu Yu, and several members of the Chiyu Clan and the Heavenly Dao Society. Everyone is on high alert.

Outside the secret chamber, dozens of people had also gathered, led by a supreme Earth Saint who was launching a frenzied attack on the chamber's door.

"You can't escape, so you'd better come out and face your deaths!"

Liu Wuxie must recognize this person here; he is none other than Sun Bing, the patriarch of the Nightfall Royal Family.

Not long after entering the Jinghong Domain, Sun Bing successfully broke through to the Extreme Dao Earth Saint level.

Later, they encountered Xu Lingxue and tried to capture her alive, but she was rescued by Pu Yu and other members of the Chiyu Clan. They fled all the way, and finally, with no other choice, Pu Yu led Xu Lingxue and other members of the Heavenly Dao Society to escape into the Bagua Sect.

Sun Bing relentlessly pursued them, chasing them all the way to the depths of the Bagua Sect, eventually trapping Xu Lingxue and the others in this secret room.

The secret chamber was made of special materials, and even though Sun Bing was an Extreme Earth Saint, he could not open the door to the secret chamber in a short time.

"Ancestor, I have found a way to open the secret chamber."

For five consecutive days, Sun Bing continued his attacks. Meanwhile, the other Nightfall royal disciples went to other areas of the Eight Trigrams Sect to search for treasures. One of the disciples even found the method to open the secret chamber.

The conversation outside the secret room could be heard clearly inside. The secret room had been severely damaged, and all the defensive formations inside had failed. Now, the only thing that could stop Sun Bing was this stone door.

If the stone gate were to open, everyone would know very well what awaited them.

"If the stone gate is opened, everyone must immediately commit suicide and not fall into the hands of the Nightfall royal family."

Xu Lingxue's face was resolute; even when being chased by Sun Bing, she did not lose her composure.

"Yes!"

All the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Society, as well as Pu Yu and the others, spoke with resounding voices.

Faced with death, the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Society showed no fear. They drew their weapons and stood guard on both sides of the stone gate, ready to perish together with Sun Bing and his men as soon as they broke in.

Even if I die, I'll take a few people down with me.

Just then, the communication talisman in Xu Lingxue's arms suddenly lit up.

Then the communication talisman in Pu Yu's arms also lit up.

"The master has arrived; he's outside!"

Pu Yu said excitedly, and immediately sent a message to his master, explaining their current location and that they were being chased by Sun Bing.

Liu Wuxie was searching aimlessly when news of his search returned.

Upon learning that they were trapped in a secret room and attacked by Sun Bing and his men, a terrifying killing intent flashed in Liu Wuxie's eyes.

"Whoosh!"

Like a shooting star, Liu Wuxie pushed his speed to the limit. Following the direction provided by Pu Yu, he would arrive at the secret chamber where they were in no more than ten breaths.

The roots of the ancestral tree extended outwards, also locating Xu Lingxue and the others, constantly pointing Liu Wuxie in the right direction.

Although Pu Yu provided directions, the Bagua Sect's path was complex, and Liu Wuxie needed to constantly adjust the route. With the guidance of the Ancestral Tree, a lot of time could be saved.

Outside the secret chamber, Sun Bing obtained a special token and inserted it into a groove in the doorway.

"Kakaka!"

The dusty, sealed door slowly rose with a clicking sound.

Everyone in the secret room retreated to the sides. This was Xu Lingxue's order just now: to do everything possible to hold off Sun Bing and the others, and buy time for her husband.

Time passed slowly, and the stone gate was damaged. When it had risen to one-third of its height, it suddenly got stuck and could not rise any further.

Enraged, Sun Bing slammed his palm hard against the stone door, shaking the entire secret chamber. Large chunks of rubble fell down, and a large piece of the stone door was smashed apart by Sun Bing's palm strike.

Although the stone gate wasn't fully raised, one could still enter the secret chamber by bending over.

"You guys go in first!"

To avoid any traps inside, Sun Bing let the others go in first.

Those royal disciples of the Nightfall clan dared not disobey, and, armed with weapons, crouched low as they walked into the stone gate.

Just as they poked their heads out, Pu Yu led the Chiyu tribe in a swift attack.

Strike first to gain the upper hand; this will hold them off and buy time for the master.

The Nightfall royal disciples who were about to enter immediately withdrew to avoid the attack, but they were still terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

If my head had been pulled back any slower, my body would definitely have been torn to pieces.

"Ancestor, they are guarding both sides of the stone gate, what should we do?"

The disciples of the Nightfall Royal Family looked troubled.

Pu Yu is a top-tier Earth Saint. Even when facing a beginner-level Extreme Earth Saint, he has the power to fight. With him guarding the stone gate, ordinary people really don't dare to approach easily.

"Let's see how long you can hold on!"

Sun Bing unleashed his massive palm strike, attacking the stone gate once more. A large number of stones fell down; once the stone gate was completely shattered, even if Pu Yu were guarding inside, he would not be able to stop their advance.

Previously, the stone gate was closed, and no matter how Sun Bing attacked, he could not damage it in the slightest.

Now that the stone gate has risen, the formation has collapsed without a fight, and Sun Bing can chop off a large chunk of rock with a single palm strike.

In a short while, the stone door was blown open, revealing the entire environment of the secret chamber.

Pu Yu launched another attack, but this time it was easily neutralized by Sun Bing, who was at the second level of the Extreme Earth Saint realm. With a single palm strike, he sent Pu Yu flying.

Then!

The other powerful members of the Nightfall Royal Family entered the secret chamber and blocked the exit to prevent them from escaping.

After repelling Pu Yu, Sun Bing's malicious gaze fell on Xu Lingxue's face. His eyes scanned her up and down, deeply attracted by Xu Lingxue's beauty and temperament.

"I never expected Liu Wuxie to be so lucky with women, to be able to marry such a stunning beauty. Today, I will taste Liu Wuxie's wife in front of everyone else."

Sun Bing harbored deep hatred for Liu Wuxie, having repeatedly suffered setbacks at his hands. Today, he could finally hold his head high in triumph.
