Chapter 336: Ran Deng vs. Kong Xuan

Greetings, Deputy Sect Leader!

Ran Deng Daoist appeared, and Ne Zha and a few others also came over.

However, everyone had anticipated his arrival.

En

His figure slowly descended from the Feather Wing Immortal's body, and Ran Deng Daoist said, "I already have a way to deal with Kong Xuan; everyone, don't worry."

At the same time, in the Yin Shang army camp, Kong Xuan, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's the Great Peng; how did he come here?"

Thinking this, he saw her sleeve flick, and her whole body turned into a five-colored rainbow light appearing before the formation.

At this moment, Zhao Gongming had already gone into battle; upon seeing Kong Xuan, he couldn't help but stare.

Perhaps it was Zhao Gongming's illusion, but he felt that Kong Xuan's appearance seemed increasingly graceful.

"Great Peng, he really is that stupid fool!"

On the other side, Kong Xuan didn't notice Zhao Gongming's gaze; at this moment, her attention was already drawn to the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle beneath Ran Deng Daoist's feet.

"Kong Xuan Daoist, long time no see!"

Ran Deng Daoist looked at Kong Xuan and said.

Hearing this, Kong Xuan furrowed her brows, looked at Ran Deng Daoist, and a hint of contemplation flashed in her eyes.

"It's you!"

Kong Xuan's face sank as she said, "I wonder who would think to use that stupid fool to deal with me; I never expected it to be you, Ran Deng!"

Both being among the Three Thousand Red Dust Guests who listened to the Dao at Zixiao Palace, Kong Xuan and Ran Deng Daoist naturally know each other.

Moreover, few people know about his relationship with the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle, and Ran Deng Daoist is one of those few.

"Kong Xuan Daoist, I know your relationship with Yin Shang, but Yin Shang's downfall is the trend of the Heavenly Dao; why persist in ignorance, go against heaven, and end up with no good outcome?"

Ran Deng Daoist advised, "If you retreat now, Daoist, I can return the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle to you; how about that?"

As Ran Deng Daoist's words fell, the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle beneath his feet let out a loud cry, seemingly echoing his words and urging Kong Xuan to retreat.

Their conversation also let everyone present know that the relationship between Kong Xuan and the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle is probably not ordinary.

If it weren't so, Ran Deng Daoist wouldn't use the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle to threaten Kong Xuan.

"Tsk!"

Ne Zha curled his lip.

He held Ran Deng Daoist in great contempt, after all, in Ne Zha's heart, a real man should be like his father, wielding real swords and spears.

Using someone the enemy values as a threat is truly somewhat despicable.

"Swish swish swish..."

But what no one expected was that, at the instant Ran Deng Daoist's words fell, a sheet of five-colored divine light instantly enveloped him and the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle beneath his feet.

The five-colored plumes were like divine swords, arriving before Ran Deng Daoist in the blink of an eye.

Almost instinctively, Ran Deng Daoist summoned a golden pagoda above his head.

The pagoda's body emitted blazing golden light, transforming into a tower about three zhang high, shielding Ran Deng Daoist and the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle beneath him.

This treasure is precisely Ran Deng Daoist's Golden Linglong Pagoda.

"This pagoda, how do I find it so displeasing?"

At the moment the Golden Linglong Pagoda appeared, Ne Zha felt a hint of disgust and an urge to go up and smash it.

However, Ne Zha did not lose his reason; he suppressed his disgust and coldly regarded the Linglong Treasure Pagoda in the air.

"Whoever smashes this pagoda will henceforth be my friend, Ne Zha!"

Thinking this, Ne Zha looked toward Kong Xuan on the other side, a flash of anticipation in his eyes.

Under the five-colored divine light, Ran Deng Daoist only felt that the Golden Linglong Pagoda had lost much of its spirituality.

"Five-colored divine light, indeed lives up to its reputation!"

Ran Deng Daoist thought to himself, then stepped forward.

"You beast, why don't you unleash your Yin-Yang Two-Qi Vessel?"

Under Ran Deng Daoist's threat, the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle opened its mouth and expelled, then released the Yin-Yang Two-Qi Vessel.

The Yin-Yang Two Qi surged forth and immediately collided with the five-colored divine light.

And the five-colored divine light, famed as being able to brush away anything, also hesitated slightly upon contact with the Yin-Yang Two Qi.

"That stupid fool!"

Silently cursing, Kong Xuan had originally planned to launch a surprise attack, defeat Ran Deng Daoist, and thereby have a chance to save the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle.

But what she never expected was that this stupid fool brother turned out to be so spineless, actually helping outsiders deal with her.

On the other side, with the Yin-Yang Two Qi blocking the five-colored divine light, Ran Deng Daoist finally had a chance to catch his breath.

"Heaven-Measuring Ruler!"

He let out a low shout, only to see Ran Deng Daoist produce the Heaven-Measuring Ruler in both hands.

Immediately, a ruler-shadow was seen shooting toward Kong Xuan from before her.

This ruler-shadow, ignoring spatial obstacles, arrived before Kong Xuan in the blink of an eye.

Facing this strike, Kong Xuan also had to retract the thrusting five-colored plumes, transforming them into a fan-shaped shield before herself.

"Everyone, attack together!"

Seeing Ran Deng Daoist and Kong Xuan fighting together, Yun Zhongzi immediately called on everyone to jointly attack Zhao Gongming.

He was afraid of Kong Xuan, indeed, because under her five-colored divine light, all his methods were useless.

But in Yun Zhongzi's view, having so many people together to deal with Zhao Gongming was more than enough.

"Hmph!"

However, just as Yun Zhongzi spoke, a Sea-Stabilizing Pearl came smashing down upon his head.

Seeing this, Yun Zhongzi was also startled, forming hand seals and instantly summoning eight Heaven-Reaching Divine Fire Pillars.

The eight Heaven-Reaching Divine Fire Pillars, arranged according to the Eight Trigrams directions, formed a Blazing Flame Formation; immediately, countless fire dragons flew out from the pillars to meet the incoming Sea-Stabilizing Pearl.

However, Yun Zhongzi clearly underestimated Zhao Gongming's strength.

How could twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, each containing the power of the four seas, be blocked by mere fire dragons spawned from a formation?

In just a single exchange, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, with the force of crushing weeds and rotting wood, annihilated the fire dragons one after another.

On the other side, Yun Zhongzi hardly had time to react before a Sea-Stabilizing Pearl struck his chest.

"How come, it's me again who's unlucky, Junior Brother Ziya—you've harmed me!"

Yun Zhongzi felt a pang of regret once again.

For no reason, why should I let Jiang Ziya lure me down the mountain?

First it was Kong Xuan's five-colored divine light, and now it's Zhao Gongming's Sea-Stabilizing Pearl.

These guys are each more formidable than the last; before them I perform like a raw recruit.

"Master, I'll come to your aid!"

Just then, a clap of thunder rang out, and the recently recovered Leizhenzi appeared, wielding a Golden Staff, gathering countless thunderous power, and hurled it at the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl.

"Good disciple..."

Yun Zhongzi felt relieved; at least this disciple still had a conscience, thinking of saving him at this moment.

But Yun Zhongzi's relief didn't last long—Leizhenzi crashed heavily beside him, spitting blood profusely; he appeared even more badly injured than Yun Zhongzi.

"Alas, having filial piety is good, but his abilities..."

Yun Zhongzi let out a sigh of lament.

All along, he had thought Leizhenzi was not bad, but upon seeing Ao Qian in midair, using Heaven-Earth Embracing to forcibly withstand the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, he again felt this disciple was really lackluster.
