Chapter 306: The Immortal Lord Has Arrived

Xiao Lingwei and Ying Wuji together dealt with Hu Yan Cheng.

And Song Yan, Cang Li, and Xue Jin all realized they must finish the battle quickly, so they could better protect Yuan Yao.

They no longer held any reserve, bringing out their trump cards to confront the three great guardians!

For a moment, the battle was extremely fierce.

Regaining her senses, Yuan Yao's expression hardened completely; she closed her eyes, used her spiritual power to infiltrate the Nightmare Space of thousands of evil cultivators, and attempted to control their wills with a spirit puppet technique!

"Rise!"

The several evil cultivators lying on the ground showed no reaction.

However, three seconds later, they suddenly flipped up, opened their eyes, their gazes blank and wooden.

Yuan Yao, controlling so many minds and bodies at once, felt a splitting headache, as if bearing enormous pressure.

Her gaze was resolute, and she lightly uttered a word: "Go!"

In that instant, the thousands of cultivators, like puppets under control, suddenly lunged toward the three great guardians outside the Xue Nu Chang gate!

"Not good!" the Grand Steward saw this, his complexion changed dramatically.

The dense swarm of evil cultivators besieged the three great guardians.

"Eldest Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother!" Yuan Yao shouted.

Song Yan and the others understood Yuan Yao's intent and immediately flashed away.

After they and Yuan Yao exchanged a glance, they swiftly surged toward Hu Yan Cheng's direction!

Hu Yan Cheng naturally saw through Yuan Yao's scheme; she used the mass of evil cultivators to encircle the three great guardians, holding them back, then let Song Yan and the others together deal with him.

Soon, the six disciples of Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord surrounded Hu Yan Cheng.

Hu Yan Cheng, seeing this, sneered, "With only you, you still think you can deal with me?"

Cang Li swung a spear blade, chuckling: "Patron, don't lean on age to boast, you're too arrogant, beware losing to us juniors!"

"Just try it and you'll know!" Yuan Yao grasped the Phantom Spirit sword, immediately summoned a sword move!

"One layer of drunken life, dream death!"

Hu Yan Cheng raised his hand to block, his expression changed slightly.

This sword move was created by Yu Qing Xue!

While he was a little dazed, the six disciples of Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord had already coordinated an attack on him.

Ying Wuji's cultivation was in the early Spirit Transformation Realm.

Xiao Lingwei's cultivation was in the late Nascent Soul Realm.

Xue Jin's cultivation was in the mid Nascent Soul Realm.

Song Yan's cultivation was in the early Nascent Soul Realm.

Cang Li's cultivation was at the peak of the late Golden Core Realm.

And Yuan Yao's cultivation was in the initial Golden Core.

They were all able to fight above their level.

Especially Yuan Yao, Song Yan, and Ying Wuji, whose strength and trump cards far exceeded their actual cultivation.

The six of them teamed up against Hu Yan Cheng.

The fight went back and forth.

At this moment, the 'blood slaves' and honored guests inside the Xue Nu Chang, upon seeing the internal strife, showed an incredulous expression.

"What on earth is happening?" Everyone naturally also noticed the six fighting Hu Yan Cheng, and they grew more shocked.

"Run!" Zong Yu'er and Lin Xuechen, seeing all the evil cultivators controlled, exchanged a glance and immediately said to the 'blood slaves'.

Upon hearing this, the blood slaves hurriedly thanked them and fled.

The three Grand Stewards saw this, their faces instantly turned sour; having no subordinates to summon, they could only personally intercept these blood slaves!

But at that moment, Golden Egg, Black Dragon Mo Yang, and Nine Infant crazily attacked them, beating them black‑and‑blue.

Meanwhile, the three great guardians tried to break out of the evil cultivators' encirclement, but they were tightly surrounded by the thousands of evil cultivators, as if to envelop them.

"Get lost!" The three great guardians' expressions turned dreadfully grim; they immediately used oppressive power to shake off the evil cultivators, but—

Those evil cultivators, as if without sensation, surged toward them like starving wolves.

At the gate of Xue Nu Chang, the short‑haired youth Nie Bai watched these scenes with interest, looking at the six dealing with Hu Yan Cheng, and said to the person beside him: "These six truly are disciples of the Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord, but they alone cannot defeat the master of the Blood Slave Arena."

"Because…"

"The master of the Blood Slave Arena hasn't taken it seriously."

The person beside him whispered: "It is said that in the previous Ninth Province sect tournament, the Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord prepared six Heavenly Pride Tokens for his six disciples."

"Their fate is really good." Hearing this, Nie Bai snorted lightly.

Others fought desperately yet could not obtain a Heavenly Pride Token, but they, having a great master, could obtain one.

The person beside him, enviously, added: "The Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord truly cares for his six disciples; otherwise he wouldn't worry that they might be sabotaged over the Heavenly Pride Tokens, and thus keep them safe."

He paused, then solemnly said: "Young master, Ying Wuji is only sixteen, yet already in the early Spirit Transformation Realm—simply terrifying. He and Xie Zixu of the First Continent will probably become the strongest opponents in Tian Jiaocheng."

Nie Bai had long heard of Ying Wuji; now seeing him, he indeed was far stronger than himself.

At this time, Nie Bai's gaze swept over the controlled evil cultivators, then shifted to Yuan Yao.

"The sixth disciple of the Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord is Yuan Yao?"

"Yes."

Nie Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, "Her spiritual power and puppet technique are truly terrifying."

Although he had once seen someone manipulate thousands of cultivators as puppets, that person was already a hundred years old, whereas this Yuan Yao seemed only fifteen or sixteen…

If she continues to grow, she will definitely become a terrifying existence.

A single thought can cause a person to die instantly.

A nightmare can make a person sink into it.

At that moment—

Cang Li was struck by a palm from Hu Yan Cheng and sent flying to the ground; blood curled from the corner of his mouth, and the red spear in his hand clanged as it fell to the ground.

He tried to rise, but suddenly spewed a mouthful of blood; his handsome face turned pallid.

And Song Yan was also struck by a palm, and malignant aura instantly coiled around his body.

Xiao Lingwei was injured in the arm by a forbidden technique, and her strength sharply declined.

Yuan Yao, Xue Jin, and Ying Wuji saw this and felt a sudden heaviness in their hearts.

Hu Yan Cheng's bloodthirsty, sinister gaze then locked onto Xue Jin; he cast a spell that temporarily Bind the three of them.

He shifted, his five fingers forming claws, trying to pierce Xue Jin's abdomen, to destroy his Golden Core and extinguish his Nascent Soul!

"Break it for me!" Yuan Yao hissed.

Powerful spiritual energy erupted instantly!

The spatial airflow twisted instantly!

And at that moment Yuan Yao's seven orifices bled; she gripped the Phantom Spirit Sword to shield Xue Jin from Hu Yan Cheng's attack, then rushed wildly at Hu Yan Cheng.

Hu Yan Cheng stepped back a few paces, then a palm gathered power to seize her long sword, flinging it to the ground, while another palm struck fiercely at her chest.

That palm was enough to shatter lungs and meridians.

Yuan Yao saw this and her pupils narrowed slightly.

"Master, save me—"

Boom!

A deafening blast rang out like thunder, and Yuan Yao was enveloped by a white light, while a towering silhouette gradually materialized before her.

Silver hair fluttered in the wind, and the white robe swayed.

That overwhelming, earth‑covering pressure made the air across the Two‑Continent Region tremble, causing scalp tingling and breathlessness.

Everyone's pupils contracted, revealing expressions of utter astonishment.

The Thousand Mountain Immortal Lord has arrived?!

No, it's a figure manifested from a life‑saving talisman!
