Chapter 337: Come With Me

Xiong Kui never dreamed that Zhang Nuo would have such a move. The Nascent Soul, trapped within the branches and leaves of the Divine Tree, had a flash of green light on its body and was about to fly out, but as countless branches and leaves closed in, it was bound into the shape of a cocoon! No matter how the Nascent Soul struggled inside, it could not escape!

Having captured a Nascent Soul, Zhang Nuo felt a burst of wild joy in his heart. If not for the unintentional help of Yang Huzi, the idea of obtaining a cultivator's Nascent Soul while at the Golden Core Stage would have been nothing but wishful thinking!

He looked up at the giant wind in the sky and saw that Yang Huzi was still trapped within it, with no sign of coming out! Zhang Nuo thought about using this opportunity to leave, but then he had a second thought: he couldn't. If he did that, it would be difficult for his Senior Sister Ye Ling'er to gain a foothold in the Giant Spirit Pavilion in the future.

Yang Huzi had made it clear before that the Giant Spirit Pavilion had already lost several cultivators in the search for him! With a slight frown, Zhang Nuo thought it over and decided not to leave after all!

Just at this moment, a loud explosion suddenly came from somewhere in the giant wind in the sky, followed by a green rainbow that rushed out from within. The green light receded to reveal the figure of Yang Huzi!

When he saw Zhang Nuo beside him, his expression changed slightly as he said:

"Did you see a Nascent Soul?"

"I saw it!"

Zhang Nuo was very calm, with no expression on his face!

"In which direction did it flee?"

"It was destroyed by me!"

These calm words made Yang Huzi gasp. Although it was only a Nascent Soul, he knew deeply of the power within it. How could Zhang Nuo, a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage, have destroyed Xiong Kui's Nascent Soul in such a short time?

Re-evaluating the young man before him, Yang Potian also began to take him seriously! From this, it was evident that everything Liu Qingshan had told him before was almost entirely true! Don't let Zhang Nuo's young age fool you; his divine abilities were truly not small!

"Haha! Good! A hero emerges from youth! It seems Elder Liu did not misjudge!"

After heaping great praise upon Zhang Nuo, Yang Huzi changed the subject and said:

"Your Senior Sister Ye Ling'er must be very eager to see you. How about this! You come with me! We will return to the Giant Spirit Pavilion's Flying Magic Tool together!"

This sentence did not sound like a request at all. Upon hearing this, although Zhang Nuo was unwilling in his heart, he dared not show too much on the surface. He nodded slightly and followed behind Yang Huzi.

The two of them, one after the other, turned into escape lights and rushed toward the summit of Tianqi Immortal Mountain. Along the way, they saw cultivators from various major forces fighting bitterly everywhere, many of whom were Golden Core Stage cultivators. Zhang Nuo felt a chill in his heart! It seemed he had made the right choice to follow Yang Huzi; if he had walked through the Immortal Mountain on his own, he didn't know how many thorny situations he might have encountered.

Even so, along the way, Zhang Nuo and the others still encountered several cultivators who tried to intercept them, but under Yang Huzi's powerful attacks, these cultivators fell one after another! Taking advantage of this, Zhang Nuo collected several corpses of Golden Core Stage cultivators on the battlefield and stored them one by one into the 'Seven Kill Ring'.

Because Xiong Kui's Nascent Soul was still imprisoned within the Pure Underworld Divine Tree, Zhang Nuo did not dare to rashly release the Divine Tree. This was his first time using the Divine Tree to refine a Nascent Soul, and he did not know how long it would take to complete!

Along the way, Yang Huzi also met several disciples of his own pavilion and brought them along. Two days later, Yang Huzi finally found Liu Qingshan, Ye Ling'er, and their group in the vast mountains!

After days of bitter fighting, Liu Qingshan's Spirit Power was almost exhausted. If Yang Huzi had not appeared in time, he feared his old life would not have been saved!

"Because of me! I almost implicated Fellow Daoist Liu! I am truly sorry!"

Glancing at Liu Qingshan's disheveled appearance, Zhang Nuo hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply as he spoke.

"You are too polite, little friend! Didn't you also help me back when we were at the Mist Sea!"

Smiling, Liu Qingshan said lightly. As long as the other party could remember this favor, it meant that Zhang Nuo was not an ungrateful person! At this time, Ye Ling'er also walked up to Zhang Nuo and asked with great concern about what had happened before!

After Zhang Nuo gave a simple account, his expression suddenly turned cold as he said:

"It is just a pity that I was careless for a moment and let that old thing Jin Buhuan escape!"

"There will be plenty of time in the future; we will meet him again one day!"

Hearing Zhang Nuo's tone of unwillingness, Ye Ling'er persuaded him. Her goal had been to find Zhang Nuo, and now that Zhang Nuo was standing before her, the remaining matters concerned this Tianqi Immortal Mountain.

"Elder Liu, have you inquired? How many waves of forces exist within this Immortal Mountain?"

Yang Huzi changed the subject and asked with a contemplative expression.

"Although there is no concrete evidence, based on my observations over the past few days, there are at least a dozen forces currently on Tianqi Immortal Mountain, and even the Sea Flood Dragon Clan has intervened!"

"It seems that obtaining this Tianqi Immortal Mountain is not something people like us can accomplish! If only the First Leader and the Second Leader were here too!"

Yang Potian frowned, calculating the existence of these forces in his heart, unable to make a choice for a moment! On the Xianhuan Continent, there were only thirty-six Immortal Mountains. In just a few decades, the Immortal Mountains on the periphery of the continent had almost all been occupied by a few major forces. If they missed this opportunity to obtain an Immortal Mountain, they would likely have to head deeper into the Xianhuan Continent!

As they went deeper, the danger would also gradually increase, and the chances of obtaining an Immortal Mountain would become even slimmer. After considering for a long time, Yang Potian suddenly turned his head and said to Zhang Nuo:

"Little Friend Zhang, I wonder if you are willing to help our Giant Spirit Pavilion obtain this Immortal Mountain?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Nuo's expression stalled. It seemed the other party was indirectly asking him to join the Giant Spirit Pavilion. There was no other path to take at the moment, and whether or not they obtained the Immortal Mountain was not important to Zhang Nuo; his goal was to enter the Zifu Tianqi Immortal Cave to cultivate.

"Since Senior Yang thinks highly of me! Then this junior cannot refuse!"

"Good!"

Seeing Zhang Nuo agree, Yang Huzi was overjoyed. He was currently in need of people, and a cultivator like Zhang Nuo, who possessed great divine abilities, could be said to be an invincible existence among those at the Golden Core Stage! At the very least, he could help him share many of the battles!

Zhang Nuo had other plans in his heart: he would first follow the people of the Giant Spirit Pavilion, and once there was an opportunity, he would return to the Broken Wall Small Lake and find a way to contact Chunyangzi again! Calculating carefully, more than half a month had passed, and he didn't know how things were going on Chunyangzi's side.

With the addition of Zhang Nuo, the group from the Giant Spirit Pavilion began to launch attacks on other forces. Along the way, Zhang Nuo unleashed all his divine abilities; as long as there was no Nascent Soul Stage old monster presiding, he alone could crush them into retreat! After several major battles, Yang Huzi felt more and more that Zhang Nuo's strength was not weak.

"This kid is still at the Golden Core Stage? If he advances to the Nascent Soul Stage, I fear even I would not be his match!"

Yang Huzi whispered to Liu Qingshan beside him.

"I learned from Linger that his aptitude in his previous sect was not very outstanding, but after reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage, he suddenly opened up Double Spirit Seas, and it became unstoppable from there!"

In order to understand Zhang Nuo more thoroughly, Liu Qingshan had asked almost everything Ye Ling'er knew.

"Oh! Double Spirit Seas! Haha, this kid!"

Chuckling and shaking his head, Yang Huzi was speechless. He had stayed in the Giant Spirit Pavilion for so long, and he had never heard of any disciple who possessed Double Spirit Seas when they first reached Foundation Establishment! No wonder Zhang Nuo's combat power was so enduring; it turned out he had multiple Spirit Seas in his body supporting him!

"According to this calculation, there are at least four Spirit Seas in Zhang Nuo's body now. If he has enough good fortune, he might have already opened a Fifth Divine Sea!"

Liu Qingshan calculated and said. Yang Huzi did not say anything more. Let alone five Spirit Seas, even four Spirit Seas was a rare talent! It seemed that no matter what method he used, he had to keep Zhang Nuo in the pavilion.

This day, the group from the Giant Spirit Pavilion arrived at the halfway point of Tianqi Immortal Mountain. Zhang Nuo looked at the mountain terrain before him; according to the map in the Measuring Heaven Ruler, the location of the Illusion Array should be on the other side of this place!

For these past few days, Zhang Nuo had been heavy-hearted; he was very worried about Chunyangzi's safety! Just at this moment, the cultivators flying in front suddenly stopped. Zhang Nuo's figure stalled, and his gaze looked forward. He saw that in the high sky several hundred zhang away, a team of dozens of cultivators was blocking the path of the Giant Spirit Pavilion group.

At the same time, Yang Huzi's face darkened slightly, two rays of sharp light shot from his eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"How could it be them?"

Zhang Nuo scanned the opposing cultivators and saw that among these people, there were about three or four Golden Core Stage cultivators, and there was even a Nascent Soul Stage existence! The cultivation of the others was only around the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Upon seeing a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, Zhang Nuo immediately turned his head to look at Yang Potian! At this time, Yang Huzi was frowning, as if he had guessed which sect the cultivators in front came from. Just by looking at him, one could tell that the other party was definitely not easy to deal with.

"Haha! Is that the Giant Spirit Pavilion group led by Brother Yang ahead?"

Among the opposing cultivators, a question was suddenly heard. It seemed like a light question, but it buzzed in the ears of the Giant Spirit Pavilion group, as if a bell had rung beside their ears.

"Indeed! Is that the Taixu Palace lineage led by Fellow Daoist Zhou ahead?"

Using the same method, Yang Huzi also spoke loudly.

Upon hearing the three words "Taixu Palace," Zhang Nuo's head instantly buzzed; wasn't Wei Juren, whom he had killed previously, the Young Master of Taixu Palace? Licking his dry lips, a sinister premonition surfaced in Zhang Nuo's heart!

Just as Zhang Nuo was pondering, a streak of rainbow light flew out from the Taixu Palace team and stopped in mid-air in the blink of an eye; the radiance faded, revealing an old man of about seventy years! This person had a ruddy complexion, white hair and beard, and his bright, piercing eyes were like two lanterns in the dark night.

As soon as this person appeared, his Divine Sense immediately swept toward the Giant Spirit Pavilion side; in the blink of an eye, the old man's expression turned cold and his gaze locked onto Zhang Nuo!

Stared at by this Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, Zhang Nuo felt his whole body jolt, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart! His hands clenched into fists unconsciously! It seemed that what was meant to come would come! There was no escaping it!
