Chapter 441: Visitors from the Su Family

Zhang Nuo's series of actions truly served to stabilize morale; the Giant Spirit Pavilion, which had been silent for over a hundred years, once again radiated vigorous vitality! The disciples in the pavilion were all full of energy, preparing for the counterattack of the Great Underworld Mansion!

More than ten days later, the massive Dharma Array on Yulong Immortal Mountain flashed with spiritual light, and dozens of cultivators walked out from within. These people were all disciples of the Su Family, and the person leading them was none other than Su Mubai!

Upon learning that Su Haizhen was still alive, the Su Family head, Su Mucheng, nearly jumped for joy. He had only one daughter; if anything were to happen to Su Haizhen, it would be the end of his life! What shocked him even more was learning from the Jade Slip sent by his daughter that she had already become a dual cultivation partner with Zhang Nuo, which was an even greater piece of good news!

In just over two hundred years, Zhang Nuo had advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Perfection, which had to be called a miracle in the Cultivation World. At this rate of cultivation, perhaps in less than a hundred years, Zhang Nuo would become a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator. By then, who in the world could be his opponent?

Based on these two reasons, Su Mucheng didn't even hesitate; the moment his daughter requested support, he immediately dispatched Su Mubai! He even brought along several of the most capable Su Family disciples from Chen Jie Xian Shan!

Su Mucheng had long heard of the Great Underworld Mansion's deeds. However, Chen Jie Xian Shan was located quite far from the center of the Immortal Illusion Continent, so the black hands of the Great Underworld Mansion had not yet reached it. But judging by their wolfish ambitions, once they took the higher-ranked immortal mountains, their next target would certainly be these immortal mountains on the edge of the continent!

Helping the Giant Spirit Pavilion defeat the Great Underworld Mansion in advance was also of great benefit and no harm for preserving Chen Jie Xian Shan!

When Su Haizhen saw that the person stepping off the teleportation array was Su Mubai, she rushed over to him! She had not expected that her Fourth Uncle could escape unscathed from a dangerous place like the First Immortal Mountain; it was truly the greatest stroke of luck amidst misfortune!

"Zhen'er! It has been a hundred years, and your cultivation has almost caught up to your Fourth Uncle's! Not bad! Not bad!"

Looking at Su Haizhen's still fresh and beautiful appearance, Su Mubai praised her greatly. However, when his gaze fell upon Zhang Nuo, he was even more astonished! A Nascent Soul Stage Great Cultivator! This rapid progress within a hundred years forced him to look at him in a new light!

Taking a few quick steps forward, Su Mubai actually bowed deeply to Zhang Nuo and said:

"Pavilion Master Zhang! Since our parting at the First Immortal Mountain, I did not expect to see you again! And your cultivation has improved so much! Truly, one who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune later! I have come this time to follow Pavilion Master Zhang's orders!"

Zhang Nuo's status was no longer what it used to be, so Su Mubai found it inappropriate to continue calling him 'fellow Daoist'! Although Zhang Nuo had already become a dual cultivation partner with Su Haizhen, on the surface, he still had to treat him with a formal title!

"Fellow Daoist Su, why be so polite? Come, let us talk in the main hall!"

The group from the Su Family followed Zhang Nuo back to Yulong Hall. After they were seated as guests and host and exchanged a few pleasantries, the others withdrew, leaving only Yang Huzi, Liu Qingshan, Su Haizhen, Zhang Nuo, and Su Mubai.

With no outsiders present, Zhang Nuo began to address Su Mubai as Fourth Uncle!

"Fourth Uncle, the main reason I invited you here this time is to help the Giant Spirit Pavilion reset the Mountain Protection Dharma Array! As you may all know, after I repelled the Great Underworld Mansion led by Shi Liang last time, given their style of conduct, they will certainly not let it go and will only become more unscrupulous! Therefore, the matter of the Mountain Protection Restriction is urgent!"

"The Pavilion Master is absolutely right! Our previous Mountain Protection Restriction was only set up by a few Array Masters in the pavilion; naturally, it cannot compare to the arrays of the Su Family!"

Liu Qingshan echoed Zhang Nuo's words and was also quite polite! He was able to become this Executive Chief Elder because he borrowed Zhang Nuo's light; if not for his strong recommendation of this person to Zhou Huizheng back then, he would not be where he was today! It seemed he had placed his bet correctly!

"Everyone, rest assured. I dare not say anything else about the Su Family, but in the way of arrays, we definitely have our strong points! Give me a few days, and I will give the Yulong Immortal Mountain's Mountain Protection Array a new look!"

Looking at the blueprint of Yulong Immortal Mountain on the table, Su Mubai slammed his palm heavily onto it and spoke with soaring ambition! Zhang Nuo and the others felt a bit more confident; as long as Su Mubai was willing to act, the matter was basically half-successful! At the very least, before the next wave of attacks from the Great Underworld Mansion arrived, they should be able to create a new Mountain Protection Restriction!

Two days later, after carefully studying the geographical location of Yulong Immortal Mountain, Su Mubai finally began to work with his men!

At the same time, on 'Hongjun Immortal Mountain', Qin Xiaofeng sat in the main hall with a gloomy face, his eyes practically spitting fire! Shi Liang had been killed by Zhang Nuo, and seven or eight out of ten of the cultivators he brought had been lost. This was the first time the Great Underworld Mansion had suffered such a heavy loss!

Especially hearing that Zhang Nuo was not dead and had returned to the Giant Spirit Pavilion, this made him feel even more depressed! He had originally thought that the Giant Spirit Pavilion, without Zhang Nuo and Zhou Huizheng, was a piece of fat meat by his mouth that he could eat whenever he wanted, so Qin Xiaofeng had not been in a hurry to deal with it.

When he finally had time to attack Yulong Immortal Mountain, Zhang Nuo appeared again; it was as if it were arranged by fate!

"Zhang Nuo! What exactly is your background? Are you specifically trying to go against the Great Underworld Mansion?"

Muttering to himself, Qin Xiaofeng had new thoughts in his mind! The face lost at Yulong Immortal Mountain had to be regained; only in this way would the long-standing prestige of the Great Underworld Mansion not fall!

"Someone come! Bring the Demon Emperor and Chi Bilie to me!"

Following a response from outside the hall, it wasn't long before the Demon Emperor and Chi Bilie walked into the hall. Seeing Qin Xiaofeng's worried expression, the Demon Emperor was extremely happy!

During the time the Master was away, Qin Xiaofeng had deliberately made things difficult for him, always giving him the most dangerous and troublesome tasks, basically giving the Demon Emperor no time to cultivate!

Back then, the Master had helped the three of them improve their strength, but after a hundred years, none of them had broken through to the Spirit Severing Stage, and their cultivation had all dropped back to their original states! Because of this, the Demon Emperor hated Qin Xiaofeng to the core. If it weren't for him, the Demon Emperor should have already advanced to the Spirit Severing Stage, triggered the Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, and summoned the 'Demon-Attracting Platform' to ascend to the Demon Realm!

However, Qin Xiaofeng's cultivation had recently broken through the shackles of the Nascent Soul Early Stage and reached the Nascent Soul Middle Stage. In this way, he and the Demon Emperor were evenly matched! The gap in their true strength was getting smaller and smaller!

It was precisely because the cultivation of these three had dropped significantly that the speed at which the Great Underworld Mansion had expanded its influence over the years had become extremely slow!

"Have you two heard about the situation at Yulong Immortal Mountain?"

Qin Xiaofeng looked down at the two people below with a condescending air and said in a deep voice.

"We know a little! We heard that Zhang Nuo has come back to life! It is truly incredible; someone saw him fall into the 'Nine Nether Cold Pool' with their own eyes!"

Red light flashed in Chi Bilie's eyes as he frowned and said.

"Whether he is alive or not is a small matter. Now that our Great Underworld Mansion has lost face at the hands of the Giant Spirit Pavilion, we must get it back this time. So, I ask you two to take the elites of the Great Underworld Mansion and go there; you must take Yulong Immortal Mountain! As for the cultivators in the Giant Spirit Pavilion, do not leave a single survivor! Slaughter the mountain!"

As soon as the cold words left his mouth, the Demon Emperor's thoughts raced, and he cursed Qin Xiaofeng in his heart! This guy clearly didn't want to leave him any time to cultivate! He had just finished one mission, and now he was being sent out to fight again!

The Demon Emperor dared to be angry but dared not speak! One has to bow their head when under someone else's roof. Calculating the time, the Master had been back on the Tianyuan Continent for decades. If the Master returned to the Immortal Illusion Continent and found that he still hadn't found that Underworld Ancient Book, he would certainly not let him off so easily. The only plan now was to perform more meritorious deeds for the Great Underworld Mansion to exchange for his future safety!

After the two left the hall, they began to gather men, preparing to launch a major attack on the Giant Spirit Pavilion!

On Yulong Immortal Mountain, a few days later, Su Mubai did not break his promise; a new Mountain Protection Array was activated. Watching the five-colored brilliance, rich with spiritual Qi, envelop the immortal mountain, Zhang Nuo felt a bit more confident!

With the most important matter at hand completed, Zhang Nuo began to work on the next task: creating offensive Dharma Arrays! If one were to compare overall strength, the Giant Spirit Pavilion could not possibly be stronger than the Great Underworld Mansion, so it was necessary to create some offensive arrays to defend against the Great Underworld Mansion's future attacks! These tasks naturally fell to Su Mubai again.

On the other hand, Zhang Nuo used all the resources in the immortal mountain to equip some of the pavilion's stronger cultivators with high-quality Magic Treasures!

As the Pavilion Master, Zhang Nuo did not skimp on Spirit Stones this time. After spending large amounts of Spirit Stones, he exchanged them for various Magic Treasures!

Distributing the Magic Treasures to the disciples one by one and letting them familiarize themselves with how to control them as quickly as possible was also crucial for improving their overall strength!

Watching Zhang Nuo arrange everything in the pavilion in an orderly manner, Yang Huzi secretly gave a thumbs up. It seemed that Zhang Nuo was not only talented in cultivation but also managed the sect in an orderly fashion; every step he implemented had profound significance!

Just as Zhang Nuo was vigorously building defensive works, an unexpected event occurred! When several disciples were setting up offensive arrays on Yulong Immortal Mountain, they discovered a powerful restriction on a hidden, inconspicuous small mountain! This restriction was actually even more powerful than the Purple Mansion Immortal Cave restriction on Yulong Immortal Mountain back then!

Even Su Mubai could only shake his head after seeing it! He was also helpless against such a powerful restriction!
