Chapter 310

~12 min read 2,368 words

The moonlight in the night sky was excellent, shining on the big river, falling into a piece of silver light, so that even the small regular script could be seen clearly. In the distance within Qian Chen's sight, a lonely boat floated horizontally on the big river, a person on the boat stood with his back to them, standing with his hands behind his back.

The night wind blew his wide sleeves.

Only to see fire-red beetles in the sleeves, following the long gown down, spreading into the water.

Those blood-colored beetles covered the lower half of this person's body, like strands of wriggling blood, appearing extremely strange under the moonlight.

The red turbid flow in the river water at his feet permeated in all directions.

He seemed to have been waiting for a long time!

Under the blessing of the Flowing Wind Array, the speed of the building boat was extremely fast, and this distance of several miles arrived in an instant. The building boat shot out like an arrow, and it was about to hit the lonely boat into pieces.

At this time, the river surface suddenly shook violently, and a behemoth rushed out of the water in front of the building boat.

"Jiang Ang... Jiang Ang!"

The strange beast opened its mouth and let out a huge roar. The upper half of this water beast that exposed the water surface was like a horse's head, but it sank under the water, flapping a huge tail fin, which clearly had a huge tail fin.

It also had two fleshy webs on its side, and its head was held high, like a small hill, but its face was covered with red blood spots.

Looking closely, those red spots were still wriggling, but they were red beetles.

"Jiang Ang!"

The building boat could not avoid it and had a tragic collision with the strange beast.

The Flowing Wind Goose phantom shrouded outside the building boat bore the counter-shock and shattered suddenly.

The abdomen of the strange beast was hit with a huge wound, and blood gushed out, dyeing the surrounding dozens of feet of water surface red!

"It is the water beast Jiang Ang!"

Xu Yang rushed out of the cabin, saw the crazy strange beast, his scalp went numb, and he had to remind Qian Chen and the three loudly. He complained to himself, why couldn't he get rid of this curiosity and had to follow the boat for this journey?

The crazy Jiang Ang raised its body like a small hill, even dozens of feet higher than the building boat.

It waved its single horn and crashed toward the building boat.

That long single horn was enough to smash through the building boat and break the entire bow of this big boat, which was dozens of feet long.

Qian Chen raised the feather fan in his hand, waved it gently to the right, and this section of the river surface suddenly raised a big wave, carrying Jiang Ang and rushing toward the right bank. Jiang Ang stood in the river water, was rushed like this, stood unsteadily, and its body smashed to the right, rubbing against the building boat and smashing into the water.

The huge wave made the entire building boat tilt to the right, and the huge waves of Jiang Ang smashing into the water poured into the first and second floors, and even in the cabin on the fourth floor, there was a large amount of river water pouring in.

Several escape lights flew up from the boat.

Yuan Hao knew that his group had caused trouble, and brought two teammates to meet the strange beast Jiang Ang, which was about to crawl out of the river water again.

This section of the river surface raised a huge wave, and the lonely boat blocking the front hung on the crest of the wave, occasionally smashing on the water surface, and the three-zhang-high wave seemed to be able to break the small boat with one slap.

But the small boat floated like a willow leaf, swaying, like an egg, but always trailing the waves.

The person standing with his hands behind his back on it waved his sleeves.

Countless fire-red beetles rushed out from his sleeves, one after another, accompanied by the bloody waves of Jiang Ang, rushing into the river, and as the blood of Jiang Ang's injury spread, countless demon beasts and water beasts swam toward this direction.

A giant crocodile ten feet long; a big fish with sharp teeth and a fish head like black iron; a poisonous python with a single horn; a tiger dragon that made a sound like a baby crying...

The red beetles crawled along the air holes, seven orifices, and drilled into the brains of those water beasts, big fish, and demon beasts, making these demon beasts change their targets in an instant and pounce toward the building boat.

"Meishan Sect!"

Zhixia and Xu Yang saw that person and said in unison.

Qian Chen took a red beetle with magic power and identified that this was a common type of water beetle in the big river, named Huang Bei.

But originally this water beetle only parasitized on large water beasts, sucking a little blood, not to mention drilling into the body, manipulating so many water beasts, even if they were allowed to gnaw with all their strength, they couldn't hurt these thick-skinned water beasts.

But the red beetle Qian Chen was holding had a hard shell like iron, and it was struggling desperately, and even iron pliers couldn't clamp it, and it was extremely bloodthirsty, and its iron hook-like claws grabbed toward the flesh and blood on Qian Chen's hand.

*Pop! *

Qian Chen crushed this beetle casually and whispered: "Fellow Daoist Zhixia, how did you recognize this as the method of the Meishan Sect?"

Zhixia said solemnly: "The Meishan Sect is one of the few foreign paths with great influence in the Central Lands. Although most of the thousands of cultivators in the sect are not successful, and are not much stronger than us loose cultivators, there are also a few branches that teach powerful spells!"

"And the spell this person is displaying is one of them, called the Ten Thousand Gu Plague Bag! It is one of the nine spells secretly passed down by the Meishan sect master lineage. It is known as containing ten thousand gu, and raising one plague. The red land is a thousand miles away, and demons do not remain!"

Xu Yang also said: "The most powerful thing about this spell is that it is combined with a magic treasure passed down from generation to generation in their sect—the Ten Thousand Gu Bag. It is said that when the Meishan sect master opens the Ten Thousand Gu Bag, as long as he collects the insects parasitizing on the surrounding demon beasts, he can raise these insects into gu-worms, and then drive them with magic power, and they can multiply countlessly in an instant. Opening the bag again can scatter countless gu-worms, infecting the demon beasts in one place."

"Demon beasts in the world are inherently difficult to infect with gu-worms, but these gu-worms mutated from the insects that originally parasitized on the demon beasts are different. The gu poison they mutate is aimed at those demon beasts, and is extremely restraining to them."

"Therefore, once the Ten Thousand Gu Bag is opened, it can sweep through the demon beasts within a radius of a thousand miles, which can make them go crazy, or can make those demon beasts poisoned to death."

"It is said that this treasure was originally a magic treasure refined by the Meishan ancestor to restrain the demon race during the human-demon war. It was famous among the demon race, and later the demon race was defeated and the whole race moved to the Eastern Extreme Great Wilderness Continent. Later, the Meishan Sect gradually flowed into the foreign path, and the disciples in the sect were of mixed quality, so some people took this spell to drive demon beasts, making them attack cities and seize villages, and go crazy to kill the enemy!"

"The Meishan ancestor is indeed extraordinary!" Qian Chen nodded slightly.

The ones Qian Chen was familiar with were all great sects passed down for eternity. The Meishan ancestor was a Primordial Spirit who had achieved immortality and ascended only in the last ten thousand years, so he was not familiar with him.

But from the intention of this spell that restrains the demon race, and from the words of Xu Yang, Zhixia, and others, Qian Chen could glimpse that the Zhang ancestor who shone brilliantly in the human-demon war was such a stunning and talented person!

Behind Yuan Hao, six talisman sword lights shot out, arranging the sword array. The talisman sword divided into hundreds of talismans, all with sword light, circling the building boat like ten thousand swords shuttling. Faintly setting up an array formation, cutting all the demon beasts that pounced on them into several pieces.

But there were too many demon beasts in the big river!

Yuan Hao had only killed dozens, and immediately filled them with several times that number.

"Zhu Wuchang of the Meishan Sect, I have met you fellow Daoists!"

The person on the small boat said calmly: "I came here only for Zhang Huaien! As long as you hand him over. I will definitely not make things difficult for you!"

"Wu Jun Zhu family!"

Zhang Huaien trembled, shrinking his head like a quail.

Zhixia sighed helplessly, finally knowing why the Meishan Sect wanted to make things difficult for them!

"Zhu Wuchang is just a collateral branch of the Wu Jun Zhu family, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to worship the Meishan Sect, but this person has a firm will. He was mediocre in the Meishan Sect for more than ten years, and only achieved Foundation Establishment at the age of thirty. Originally, he was a joke in the Meishan Sect, and was bullied by the foreign paths in the sect. If it weren't for the family's remaining shade, he would have been harmed by the internal strife in the Meishan Sect long ago!"

"But once this person achieved Foundation Establishment First Rank, he cultivated the Ten Thousand Poison Pure Dao Body, was accepted as a disciple by the Meishan sect master, and shone brilliantly. And within thirty years, he achieved Core Formation Second Rank, becoming the leader of the Wu Jun Zhu family of this generation. It is said that the Meishan sect master also intends to pass the position of sect master to him after impacting the Yang Spirit!"

"This person is the big senior brother of this generation of the Meishan Sect!"

Zhixia chattered a lot, but the more he said, the more timid everyone became, and even Zhixia himself had no bottom in his heart. Zhang Huaien was even more disheartened, and his face was gray and white.

"Eat the salary of others, be loyal to the affairs of others!"

Zhixia took a long breath and said: "I, Zhixia, since I promised to protect you, I will do my best to do so. At worst, it is just to risk my life! Anyway, I am a lone person, one person is full, the whole family is not hungry... one person dies, no one sacrifices. No need to clean up the corpse... it's cheaper for the fish in this big river!"

In mid-air, the loose cultivator in the Realm of Penetrating the Law wearing a black feather cloak turned and left, saying: "This muddy water has nothing to do with me, I was just greedy for a temporary advantage, so I didn't get off the boat!"

Those noble family children came out one by one, cupped their hands from afar and said: "So it is Brother Wuchang of the Zhu family! Since Brother Wuchang has spoken, we dare not protect this Zhang Huaien!" Brother Zhu, please do as you please.

The two Core Formation old men looked at each other and didn't rush to answer.

"Meishan big senior brother!" Zhang Huaien's face was ashen, and he said tremblingly: "To capture a small person like me, do I actually have to labor such a high person to make a move?"

Qian Chen said calmly: "It involves Sun En and the Jin court, it shouldn't be strange to have such figures make a move!"

Zhang Huaien stared at him and said: "What about you? Just because of the friendship with the Sixteenth Princess, it seems that you don't have to take such a risk!"

Qian Chen smiled: "I don't fear him, I just think it's more interesting to see such figures on the road, and follow you!"

Zhang Huaien stared at Yuan Hao and the others who were still killing the demon beasts, and said to himself: "They came under orders, and didn't even want to report their origins. Facing such a strong enemy, they shouldn't stay anymore!"

Du Xiuniang transmitted: "Captain! That person is a sect master disciple of a big sect, a Core Formation True Person who achieved Core Formation Second Rank thirty years ago!"

Yuan Hao replied solemnly: "There are too many demon beasts in the big river, and the other side's supernatural powers have too much advantage here. And Core Formation Second Rank, I am not necessarily an opponent! This mission... is really damn difficult!"

"I will try to see if I can drag him down. Only by dragging until our reinforcements arrive will there be a chance!"

"Captain, you have to be careful! If it doesn't work, give up the mission..." Du Xiuniang said.

Du Xiuniang and her two teammates made a move, taking over the heavy responsibility of Yuan Hao blocking the demon beasts. Zhixia also pulled out his long sword, stuck a talisman on the sword, and slashed out. Two demon beasts that were pouncing toward the building boat were cut in half at the waist.

Seeing Yuan Hao's six talisman swords merge into one, escaping toward Zhu Wuchang, a strong light of hope suddenly erupted in Zhang Huaien's eyes.

Six sword lights circled Zhu Wuchang, setting up a sword array...
