Chapter 76: Master Wen Sukong

~9 min read 1,704 words

Above were two Fourth-Realm consummates who were only a hair's breadth away from the Lihe Dao Realm, and on the side were three Golden Core cultivators in a chaotic battle.

Liu Tianfang first sent the few small cultivators of Red Wood Ridge back to the ground, telling them to hurry and escape this place, while he himself hesitated on the spot, not knowing what to do.

He wanted to cross hands with Li Yuanhua, but was worried that rumors of the Green Dragon Cave and Mount Baiman joining forces would affect the sect's reputation.

He wanted to go directly into the malevolent cavern to find Cheng Qieqing, but was afraid that Red Wood Ridge would think he was taking advantage of others to enter the cavern first to seek the malevolent Qi, losing his decorum.

Just as he was hesitating, another streak of Yin-Yang mysterious light came from the Eastern horizon.

That mysterious light was massive, like the sea and clouds, making the three Golden Core grand cultivators who were fighting stop and look toward the East together, wondering which family was coming to snatch the new malevolent Qi.

In the East, the closest were the Three Xiang, and the strongest in the Three Xiang were the Wuling Mountain of the Daoist sect and the Hengshan Sword Sect of the Sword Sect. I don't know which one was coming.

That streak of mysterious light drew closer, but its speed did not decrease; it looked as if it was going to go directly into the malevolent cavern. Seeing this, Li Yuanhua, Xin Chenzi, and Hong Changbao, who had just been fighting, all rushed to intercept. If they let someone just go in like that, wouldn't they have been entangled here in vain?

Seeing someone blocking, the mysterious light transformed into a human figure and stood still. Everyone took a look and saw it was actually a woman.

The newcomer was a female Daoist, wearing a purple bat-patterned Daoist robe, with a yellow cicada jade crown on her head, and a beautiful appearance. Her hands were folded in front of her abdomen, and she held a red-yellow glazed Ruyi in the crook of her arm. The brilliance on the Ruyi flowed like water. One end of the Ruyi was carved into the shape of a Lingzhi, and the other was a soaring fierce tiger. At a glance, one could tell it was a rare treasure.

"Wen Sukong of Mount Sanqing is here. What advice do you have for blocking me?"

The female Daoist said coldly.

Li Yuanhua was stunned upon hearing this. How could it be Mount Sanqing?

And Liu Tianfang was even more astonished, stuttering: "Sukong, I just sent the order arrow, how did you...?"

It turned out that his order arrow just now was sent to Mount Sanqing.

The female Daoist swept a glance at him and said,

"My disciple went down the mountain to travel, so I naturally left something on him, though he didn't know it himself. Now that he has encountered danger, I can naturally sense it."

After saying that, she looked at Liu Tianfang. "As for you, since you knew my disciple was in danger and sent an order arrow to inform me, why didn't you go in first to find him? Is it because these three are blocking you? But if they were blocking you, why were they fighting just now while you stood by and watched?"

Liu Tianfang didn't know how to answer upon hearing this, wanting to speak but stopping.

And Wen Sukong had traveled in the Southwest for many years when she was young and was an extremely intelligent person. Just by scanning the few people, she had some guesses.

"You want to fight but are worried about others gossiping, and you want to enter but are afraid of being criticized behind your back, is that it?"

Liu Tianfang had always known Wen Sukong spoke sharply, and upon hearing this, he smiled bitterly, unable to speak.

And Wen Sukong looked at Liu Tianfang twice more and said,

"You have always been like this. You must think of a foolproof plan for everything you do, otherwise you would rather not do it. To put it bluntly, it's being wishy-washy. I told you long ago that this personality is fine when the realm is low, but if you don't change it when the realm is high, it will be a disaster. Look at you now; your Golden Core is only at the Second Wash, while Hong Changbao and Xin Chenzi, who were originally behind you, can reach the Third Wash. This is the root cause!"

Liu Tianfang almost wanted to cover his face and leave.

And Li Yuanhua only felt strange. What kind of woman is this? She could actually lecture the Tianfang Daoist of Green Dragon Cave like this, while Hong Changbao and Xin Chenzi were in a state of watching a show, seemingly old acquaintances.

Wen Sukong looked at Hong Changbao and Xin Chenzi again.

"My disciple is in the malevolent cavern. Do you two want to block me?"

Hong Changbao immediately dodged to the side. He naturally had to block if he didn't know who it was just now, but now that he saw who it was, he naturally wouldn't block anymore. Moreover, he had already guessed that the righteous Daoist who was a guest at the Green Dragon Cave and vouched for by Liu Tianfang himself must be her disciple. He even said,

"Sister Wen, please go ahead. If you need anything, just call me. Speaking of which, I am ashamed; this nephew Cheng entered the dangerous place to save my Miao people."

However, Wen Sukong didn't appreciate it, coldly saying, "Then why didn't you save him until now? Are you used to being ungrateful?"

Hong Changbao gave two dry laughs and didn't reply.

And Xin Chenzi also wanted to dodge based on his actions, but he looked up at the sky again, seemingly not daring to decide. "Disciple, retreat quickly. The high Daoist of Mount Sanqing, the dragon coiled in the Southeast, how could she covet the malevolent Qi in our barbaric region?"

The Green-Robed Ancestor's voice came from the top of the sky.

Xin Chenzi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and dodged to the side.

And Wen Sukong naturally heard that the Green-Robed Ancestor was giving Mount Sanqing face, and was also reminding her that saving people is saving people, don't think about extracting malevolent Qi.

Thus, only Li Yuanhua was left blocking in front of Wen Sukong.

"Mount Sanqing, what a big name. They are afraid of you, but my Emei is not afraid. Stop the nonsense; let's see the real truth in our hands. Let's see if my Xuanying sword is sharp! If you win, you can naturally go wherever you want; if you lose, then stop coming to my Southwest to act wildly in the future!"

Li Yuanhua said, summoning the Xuanying flying sword in front of him, pointing the sword at Wen Sukong.

Wen Sukong looked at him.

"It looks like the Bearded Immortal is in front of me. I have long heard of the Bearded Immortal's great name, but today I have no heart to spar with you. However, if you really want to die, you can come up."

After saying that, the female Daoist flipped her right hand and made a gesture toward the sky. The void at her fingertips twisted, and two light spots, one black and one white, emerged from the void.

The two light spots circled and rotated around each other, like two tadpoles. As the speed got faster and faster and the brilliance grew more intense, they became a rotating Taiji diagram. Immediately after, the patterns of the Later Heaven Eight Trigrams appeared outside the Taiji diagram.

The Taiji diagram turned faster and faster, the black and white colors becoming a chaotic mass, and then it turned into a patch of brightness. Looking closely, the Taiji diagram had actually turned into a round mirror at some point.

And Li Yuanhua saw his own reflection appear in the precious mirror. A terrifying feeling from the netherworld shrouded him, reminding him of the Fourth-Wash Golden Core Tribulation he had just passed not long ago.

"Heh, it is only human nature for the Daoist to enter the cavern to find someone. Actually, I also have a niece trapped in the cavern, and I am also anxious. Why don't you go first, Daoist, and I will follow."

Li Yuanhua put away his flying sword and cleared the way.

Wen Sukong didn't talk nonsense either, put away the Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams Mirror, and rushed into the malevolent cavern.

Xin Chenzi and Hong Changbao smiled in unison upon seeing this. The sound wasn't loud, but it fell into Li Yuanhua's ears, making him feel somewhat ashamed. However, fortunately, with his dense whiskers, no expression could be seen.

Let's say Wen Sukong entered the cavern and felt that the true malevolent Qi was at the bottom of the ground. The soaring brilliance outside was just thin malevolent Qi formed by the evaporation of rainwater by the earth's malevolent Qi, which was far from the true malevolent Qi.

One didn't know how wide this cavern was; one couldn't see the boundaries in all directions. The cavern was pitch black, but the true malevolent Qi was brilliantly unusual, either in groups or in strands, making people feel as if they were in a sea of stars.

However, as the first person to enter the malevolent cavern after the ground collapsed, Wen Sukong had no time to appreciate the strange scenery. Searching for someone in this huge malevolent cavern was truly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Whoosh, whoosh—"

There was a hurricane from somewhere in this cavern, almost blowing people away, and blowing those true malevolent Qi to drift everywhere.

The Tiger Lingzhi Ruyi transformed into a group of red-yellow spiritual light to protect Wen Sukong, preventing the malevolent Qi from scouring her physical body. She carefully avoided the true malevolent Qi, operated her Dharma eyes, searched in all directions, and at the same time shouted in her mouth,
