Chapter 453: Old friends reunite to set a killing trap, Tian Peng comes out of seclusion
Above Flower Fruit Mountain, the void fluctuated, and Su Chen and Bai Ze walked out from the spatial passage.
The sea breeze whipped the demon flags in the mountain, snapping loudly.
The Flower Fruit Mountain, which was usually noisy, now lacked a bit of worldly atmosphere and had an extra layer of murderous intent pressing on the heart.
Before the Water Curtain Cave, a wheel of cold moonlight hung in mid-air, and Chang Xi stood in the moonlight, her silver palace attire unstained by dust.
Seeing her, Bai Ze paused his steps; this ancient Demon Saint was silent for a moment, then stepped forward, his hands crossed, about to salute.
"Bai Ze, pays respects to..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chang Xi raised her hand, and a strand of moonlight supported his arm.
"The Demon Court is already gone." Chang Xi looked at him, her voice very light, "Today there are no rulers or subjects, only old friends."
Bai Ze's body stiffened; he looked up at Chang Xi, not knowing how to answer.
After a long time, he said in a low voice: "Empress, you have suffered all these years."
Chang Xi did not answer; she looked at the northern firmament.
"Di Jun is dead, and Tai Yi is also dead. The old troops of the Demon Court are scattered across the heavens and earth; among those who survived, who is not bitter?"
Bai Ze closed his eyes; in that battle back then, the Sun True Fire burned the sky, the Eastern Emperor Bell's sound shattered mountains and rivers, countless Demon Clan powerhouses died in battle, and the firmament was filled with blood.
Now they no longer had hatred for the Wu Clan, only hatred for Kun Peng, the traitor who betrayed the Demon Court at the critical moment and stole the Hetu Luoshu.
"This account has been dragged on for too long." Bai Ze opened his eyes, his voice turning cold, "Today, since there is an opportunity, this old minister will not let him go even if I have to risk this life."
Chang Xi turned to look at Su Chen and asked: "Can Flower Fruit Mountain withstand a Semi-Sage battle?"
Su Chen nodded.
"As the ancestral vein of the East Victory Shenzhou, Flower Fruit Mountain naturally has no problem, but the small demons in the mountain cannot withstand it."
He raised his hand and sacrificed the Nine Demon Tower; the pitch-black ancient tower rose into the air, the nine-story tower body opened, and the demon energy converged into a vortex, yet it did not hurt anyone, merely guiding figures into it.
Inside the Water Curtain Cave, the monkeys and grandchildren had not yet reacted when they were rolled up by a gentle force.
The various demon soldiers and demon generals in the mountain were also collected into the tower one after another.
Some small demons had just picked up a jar of wine when their eyes blurred, and they were already in the space inside the tower.
"Where's the wine? I haven't taken my wine yet!"
The Nine Demon Tower formed its own space; Su Chen had already marked out areas, and the spiritual energy was sufficient to protect the demons.
A moment later, Flower Fruit Mountain was more than half empty.
Only Luan Erjie, the Yu Rong Wang, the Gibbon King, and fifteen peak Mystic Immortal demon kings remained.
Luan Erjie stood behind Su Chen and said in a low voice: "Advisor, I have sent a message to Demon General Yan Que, asking him to send a message to the members of the Demon Alliance outside, telling them not to come near Flower Fruit Mountain for ten years."
Su Chen nodded; Luan Erjie had become more and more mature in handling affairs over the years, saving him a lot of worry when he was away.
The Yu Rong Wang held an iron rod, glanced at Chang Xi, then looked at Bai Ze, his throat moving.
He was usually talkative, but at this moment he was as honest as a small demon who had just entered the mountain gate; the Gibbon King was even more straightforward, standing aside without saying a word, waiting for orders.
Bai Ze swept over the terrain of Flower Fruit Mountain.
"The spiritual vein of this mountain is the ancestral vein of the East Victory Shenzhou, rooted in the East Sea, and is incomparably powerful. If we want to set up the Zhou Tian Jue Ling Formation, 365 formation flags must press down on the nodes of the earth veins."
He waved his sleeve, and a mountain and river formation map emerged.
The map was densely covered with star points, corresponding exactly to the various mountains, water veins, cave mansions, and cliff walls of Flower Fruit Mountain.
Bai Ze began to explain the method of setting up the formation, speaking extremely fast, with every sentence falling on the key points.
The Yu Rong Wang's scalp went numb listening; he looked at the dense star points on the map and couldn't help but say: "Senior Bai Ze, what will happen if one flag is set up incorrectly in this formation?"
Bai Ze glanced at him.
"If one place is set up incorrectly, we won't be able to trap Kun Peng."
Hearing this, the Yu Rong Wang immediately shut his mouth, not daring to ask again.
If this old bird ran away, the one who would be unlucky in the end would be Flower Fruit Mountain.
Bai Ze took out the formation flags, with ancient demon texts carved on the flags, emitting an aura that cut off heaven and earth.
The crowd was about to split up to set up the formation when suddenly, the depths of the back mountain of Flower Fruit Mountain shook violently.
A ray of light shot into the sky, followed by a peak Jin Xian pressure spreading out.
Rocks rolled down, trees shook, and the Yu Rong Wang turned around abruptly.
"Is there an enemy attack?"
Su Chen raised his brows, sensing the aura rising in the mountain.
"No, it's one of our own."
As soon as Su Chen's voice fell, a figure shot into the sky from a mountain peak in Flower Fruit Mountain.
This person had a pig's head and a human body, with tusks turned outward, draped in a Daoist robe that had been stretched somewhat out of shape; it was Tian Peng, who had been in seclusion for more than three hundred years.
He held a nine-toothed rake, stepped on cloud energy, and laughed loudly as soon as he came out.
"Hahaha! My old pig has finally recovered to the peak of the Jin Xian!"
The laughter spread through the mountain forest, then stopped abruptly.
Tian Peng saw Chang Xi, his hand holding the rake shaking, and then saw Bai Ze, his eyelids jumping.
Finally, he looked at Su Chen, whose cultivation was far beyond his original Tai Yi Jin Xian cultivation.
Tian Peng was stunned on the spot; he calculated with his fingers, and the time that had passed was only three hundred years, not thirty thousand years.
Tian Peng's mouth twitched; he looked at Su Chen, unable to speak for a long time.
When he first met Su Chen, this kid was only in the Human Immortal realm; now, after only a few hundred years, Su Chen's cultivation had actually surpassed his previous life's.
Was this reasonable? This was unreasonable.
Tian Peng took a deep breath, pointing at Su Chen and saying: "Kid, tell the truth, are you the illegitimate child of the Heavenly Dao?"
Su Chen said: "A bit of good luck."
Tian Peng almost couldn't catch his breath; this was called a bit?
After speaking, he secretly looked at Chang Xi again, immediately tidying his Daoist robe, sucking in his stomach and puffing out his chest; unfortunately, the pig head was too conspicuous, and no matter how he puffed, there was no immortal style.
Chang Xi just glanced at him faintly and said: "Tian Peng."
Tian Peng immediately bowed in salute.
"Greetings, Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun."
Su Chen wanted to laugh; this Marshal had many other problems, but he was truly honest when he saw Chang Xi.
Bai Ze looked at Su Chen.
"Who is this?"
Su Chen said: "Marshal Tian Peng, formerly the commander of the Tianhe Water Navy in the Heavenly Court, now temporarily residing in Flower Fruit Mountain."
Bai Ze's eyes stirred.
"Tianhe Water Navy Marshal?"
Hearing this, Tian Peng straightened his back again.
"Correct, it is my old pig. Back then, the eighty thousand water troops of the Tianhe were all under my command."
After he finished speaking, he swept a glance at Chang Xi.
Unfortunately, Chang Xi had no change in expression, which made Tian Peng somewhat disappointed.
Bai Ze stepped forward.
"That's perfect." He pushed the formation map to Tian Peng, "The water veins of Flower Fruit Mountain are complex; I want to set up the Zhou Tian Jue Ling Formation and need someone to comb through the water veins; this matter is best left to Marshal Tian Peng."
Tian Peng glanced at the formation map, originally wanting to put on airs.
But the moment he saw the formation map, his expression changed.
"May I ask who Senior is?"
He looked at Bai Ze, his eyes becoming more solemn.
Bai Ze said calmly: "Bai Ze."
The rake in Tian Peng's hand almost fell.
Ancient Demon Saint Bai Ze! What was going on with Flower Fruit Mountain today?
It was one thing for the Tai Yin Wuqu Wuqu Xingjun to be here, but Demon Saint Bai Ze had also come.
He couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing here at Flower Fruit Mountain?"
Su Chen said calmly: "Kill Kun Peng."
Tian Peng was stunned, his two large pig ears shaking twice.
"Who? Kun Peng?"
Tian Peng swallowed his saliva.
"Is it too late for my old pig to leave now?"
Su Chen looked at him.
"What do you think?"
Tian Peng laughed dryly.
"I was joking."
He immediately rolled up his sleeves and leaned toward Bai Ze.
"Senior, the junior also knows a little about formation Dao. Don't worry, just leave the water vein combing matter to me. If Kun Peng truly dares to come, I will let him know what the professional quality of a former Tianhe Marshal is."
The Yu Rong Wang whispered: "Didn't you want to leave just now?"
Tian Peng turned his head and glared at him.
"What do you know? I was just habitually confirming the risks."
The Gibbon King laughed on the side: "In plain language, that's just being a coward."
Tian Peng's face turned black.
Su Chen waved his hand, interrupting the jokes of the few.
"We don't have much time, let's get to work quickly."
With an order, the crowd began to act.
Bai Ze presided over the formation, Chang Xi guarded the surroundings to avoid Kun Peng arriving early.
Tian Peng combed through the water veins, Su Chen coordinated the manpower, and everyone set up 365 formation flags according to Bai Ze's instructions.
Every time a flag was set down, the spiritual energy around Flower Fruit Mountain decreased by a point. ===== CHAPTER 454 =====
