Chapter 243: Many Black Shadow Demonic Cultivators

The fierce battle between the Black Shadow Demonic Cultivator and Yang Chanyu triggered explosions like thunder, waking up the entire Fire Persimmon Xiancheng.

Unexpectedly, this battle broke out suddenly, turning the entire Fire Persimmon Xiancheng into a battlefield.

Tonight was destined to be a night of intense shock. 【24

The incident happened suddenly, and Fei Si was still at his desk handling official business.

Upon hearing the news, he immediately grabbed the seal on his desk, infused it with magic power, and activated a portion of the city-protecting array's power to observe the battle situation.

He even re-watched the previous battle scene.

Fei Si narrowed his eyes, sharp glints flickering within them. From Yang Chanyu's appearance to her subsequent behavior, he smelled the thick scent of a conspiracy.

His reaction was swift; he immediately gave the order to activate the entire City Lord's Mansion's defensive array and set its power to the maximum.

Afterward, he immediately sent someone to report to Meng Kui about this emergency battle situation.

Finally, he issued an order to contact the City Guard and gather the people of the City Lord's Mansion, telling them not to attack easily.

With the situation unclear, he needed to see the situation clearly before making a move.

Yang Chanyu suddenly appeared near the City Lord's Mansion, carrying the Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

This Demonic Sect's True Scripture was clearly the key treasure that everyone in the city had been fiercely discussing in recent days.

Yang Chanyu was chased and beaten by the shadow demonic cultivator, who actively leaked that Yang Chanyu had the Demonic Sect's True Scripture in her hands. It gave the impression that Yang Chanyu had just stolen the True Scripture from the City Lord's Mansion and was intercepted by the shadow demonic cultivator halfway.

"This is a very obvious frame-up!" Fei Si remained calm.

He secretly warned himself: "The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light; the enemy has designed various conspiracies and tricks, so it's impossible that they haven't calculated our side's reaction."

"Therefore, our side cannot easily enter the fray, lest we fall into their trap."

Fei Si had just finalized his tactics when, the next moment, he heard a roar he was extremely familiar with.

"Shadow demonic cultivator, you have finally appeared! This time, let's see where you can run!"

A middle-aged man with a short stature, one blind eye, and bulging muscles, looking like a stone pier, shot into the sky and charged fiercely at the shadow demonic cultivator.

The newcomer was none other than Meng Kui's right-hand man—Chi Dun.

Fei Si's vision went black, and he gritted his teeth in anger: "This reckless fool!"

Chi Dun came with great momentum.

He was not interested in the Demonic Sect's True Scripture and focused entirely on attacking the shadow demonic cultivator.

The shadow demonic cultivator was none other than Sun Lingtong in disguise.

Seeing Chi Dun, a Jin Dan cultivator, chasing him frantically and looking as if he wanted to swallow him alive, even Sun Lingtong secretly clicked his tongue, feeling immense psychological pressure.

"What's going on?"

On the other side, at Unlike Ning Zhuo's residence.

Zheng Shuanggou and Zhou Nongying were hiding their figures, communicating via voice transmission.

Tonight, it was their turn to be in a group of two, guarding Unlike Ning Zhuo's side.

Neither of them was in a hurry to act.

After communicating, they also worried that this was an enemy trick to lure them out and create a defensive loophole against Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Bang!

Seeing that Chi Dun was about to catch up to him, Sun Lingtong, playing the shadow demonic cultivator, hurriedly took out a bottle of pills and smashed it fiercely on the ground.

Instantly, the pitch-black medicinal powder turned into a massive black smoke that spread rapidly, covering everyone's line of sight.

Chi Dun did not hesitate at all, like a wild bull, charging directly into the thick, heavy smoke.

Near Unlike Ning Zhuo's residence.

"Is that the shadow demonic cultivator?" Zhou Nongying asked.

Zheng Shuanggou frowned, casting a detection spell to investigate the frantically spreading black smoke with all his might: "It's hard to say; this black smoke seems to be something else."

As he spoke, he took out his signature weapons—the Sun and Moon Hooks—and held them in his left and right hands.

Seeing his companion eager to join the battlefield, Zhou Nongying hurriedly stopped him: "Don't be impatient; we must wait for Lord Zhu Xuanji and the other Jin Dan cultivators to arrive before we can fight."

"Since you can't be sure, then this shadow demonic cultivator might not be real; it's very likely Fei Si's trick!"

Previously, Yang Chanyu had suddenly attacked Unlike Ning Zhuo.

After that incident, Zhu Xuanji and the others discussed it and believed that there was a possibility.

That was, Yang Chanyu and the City Lord's Mansion were colluding, and the former was hired by Fei Si.

If this was the case, then right now, the battle between Yang Chanyu and the shadow demonic cultivator was a play directed and acted by the City Lord's Mansion to deal with the third layer of rumors specifically spread by Zhu Xuanji's side.

The intention was probably—since the public is suspicious that my City Lord's Mansion has the Demonic Sect's True Scripture, then I will direct and act in a play where the Demonic Sect's True Scripture is eventually snatched away by someone else, completely proving that my City Lord's Mansion no longer has the True Scripture in its hands.

Boom, boom, boom!

Deep within the frantically spreading black smoke, a series of terrifying explosions rang out.

Clearly, within the black smoke, Yang Chanyu and the shadow demonic cultivator had engaged in a more intense duel.

Yang Chanyu let out a cold snort, appearing to have suffered heavy injuries, and shouted: "Shadow demonic cultivator, this lady will remember you! Since you want this True Scripture so much, then go ahead and snatch it."

As she said this, everyone saw a pink light shoot out into the sky-filling black mist.

The pink light contained a stone tablet.

Shortly after, the shadow demonic cultivator suddenly burst out of the black smoke, flying at full speed in pursuit of the Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

In this instant, the many Jin Dan cultivators who saw this scene felt their hearts shake violently.

Who wouldn't want to obtain the Demonic Sect's True Scripture?

Although they had already forged their Jin Dan and could not change their cultivation techniques, this Demonic Sect's True Scripture was linked to the Lava Xian Gong and the Three Sects' Supreme Arts, making it worth a fortune.

Even if they couldn't use it themselves, contributing it to other forces or using it for trade would be good, and it would definitely yield huge benefits.

For a time, everyone's gaze was attracted by the Demonic Sect's True Scripture flying in mid-air.

The Demonic Sect's True Scripture drew a long arc over Fire Persimmon Xiancheng and fell straight toward a certain corner.

And this corner was right near Unlike Ning Zhuo's residence.

This couldn't help but make Zhou Nongying and the eager Zheng Shuanggou feel a shock in their hearts, sensing an unusual scent.

"This is probably the City Lord's Mansion's trick," Zhou Nongying whispered to himself. "Brother Zheng, go quickly and take this true transmission away to prevent it from causing chaos, allowing the battle group to kill their way here and endanger Unlike Ning Zhuo's life."

Zheng Shuanggou held his hooks and flew into the sky, heading straight for the Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

In a certain house nearby.

The true transmission Jin Dan disciple of the Grand Clarity Palace also felt his heart shake violently.

He was lurking near Unlike Ning Zhuo's residence.

During this recent period, he had been investigating the source of the rumors, coveting the Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

The Grand Clarity Palace true transmission Jin Dan cultivator believed that if he could obtain the True Scripture, it would definitely be beneficial for his seizure of the Lava Xian Gong!

Even if he didn't obtain the Lava Xian Gong in the future, this Demonic Sect's True Scripture was valuable to him.

Whether it was used to cultivate his own forces or contributed to the Grand Clarity Palace, it was fine.

So when he saw the Demonic Sect's True Scripture fly near him, he immediately felt a strong urge to snatch it.

He immediately took out a set of pitch-black clothing from his storage bracelet.

"Luckily I prepared in advance."

If Unlike Ning Zhuo, Zheng Shuanggou, and Chi Dun were here, they would discover: this set of pitch-black clothing was extremely similar to the one on the shadow demonic cultivator.

It turned out that the Grand Clarity Palace true transmission, due to his righteous identity, found it inconvenient to act directly in many matters.

After hearing about the shadow demonic cultivator, he immediately set about forging these clothes.

After all, what did the good deeds done by the shadow demonic cultivator have to do with me, the Grand Clarity Palace true transmission?

Zheng Shuanggou flew forward, seeing the Demonic Sect's True Scripture within reach, he reached out, wanting to grab it.

A pitch-black figure slammed into him.

Boom!

Zheng Shuanggou held a hook in one hand and struck a fierce blow.

He and the shadow demonic cultivator (the Grand Clarity Palace true transmission) clashed, both retreating, and the resulting air wave sent the Demonic Sect's True Scripture flying into mid-air.

"How is there another shadow demonic cultivator?!" Zheng Shuanggou was astonished.

After the Grand Clarity Palace Jin Dan true transmission landed on the ground, he immediately got up and shot into the sky.

He waved his hand, using magic power to condense a large hand, grabbing toward the falling Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

"Don't even think about it!" This time, it was Zheng Shuanggou's turn to intercept the Grand Clarity Palace true transmission.

He split the magic hand with a hook.

The shadow demonic cultivator (Sun Lingtong) was also rushing toward the Demonic Sect's True Scripture, but he was further away.

Chi Dun followed closely, staring at him intently.

Sun Lingtong felt frustrated: "Chi Dun, this reckless fool, has no brain at all. The Demonic Sect's True Scripture is clearly right there, yet he insists on staring at me."

Sun Lingtong looked at the battle group from afar, feeling confused in his heart: who could the second shadow demonic cultivator be?

Chi Dun's thoughts were very simple: "No matter which one is the real shadow demonic cultivator, in any case, I'll just catch the closest one and beat them up first."

Sun Lingtong used all his strength, running all the way, using the buildings of Fire Persimmon Xiancheng to hinder Chi Dun's pursuit.

Chi Dun was, after all, a person from the City Lord's Mansion, and he couldn't let go, allowing Sun Lingtong to delay him for quite some time.

Zheng Shuanggou and the shadow demonic cultivator (Grand Clarity Palace true transmission) were fighting fiercely.

Seeing that Sun Lingtong was about to arrive, Yang Chanyu suddenly flashed and appeared directly at the location of the Demonic Sect's True Scripture.

Yang Chanyu held the Demonic Sect's True Scripture in her hand again, smiling like a flower.

She fled with the Demonic Sect's True Scripture, about to follow the gaps in the Fire Persimmon Xiancheng's array, dive into a secret passage, and then escape the entire battlefield.

A golden light suddenly shone down!

Yang Chanyu was illuminated by the golden light, and her speed dropped sharply.

Zhu Xuanji's figure appeared in the golden light, descending from the sky.

Yang Chanyu used her old trick again: "You want the Demonic Sect's True Scripture, right? I'll give it to you!"

This time, she threw the Demonic Sect's True Scripture directly to the shadow demonic cultivator (Grand Clarity Palace Jin Dan true transmission).

But Zhu Xuanji ignored the Demonic Sect's True Scripture entirely and still charged straight at Yang Chanyu.

Yang Chanyu didn't have time to dive into the secret passage and could only temporarily shift, fleeing while casting spells to attack Zhu Xuanji.

The shadow demonic cultivator (Grand Clarity Palace true transmission) didn't expect "good fortune" to suddenly find him!

He took a small step back and held the Demonic Sect's True Scripture in his own hands.

The moment he touched the Demonic Sect's True Scripture, he felt he had grasped many profound meanings of the cultivation technique.

"Demonic Blood Tendon Dyeing Technique!" The Grand Clarity Palace true transmission widened his eyes, a look of surprise on his face.

At this moment, he was absolutely certain that this was a genuine Demonic Sect's True Scripture!
