Chapter 660 The Emei Daoist Sec
Because they were relying on these techniques and double disposition, they were able to fight on par with Tian Mingshan and his two comrades.
Clearly, Tian Mingshan was also restraining his fear as he called his friends with all his effort to take them out as fast as possible. If they couldn’t do so, there would be endless consequences.
Those two men in black were also using strange spears which appeared as sharp as a spur and seemed to be in a completely different shape than an ordinary spear.
The two of them resisted Tian Mingshan’s attacks and exerted all their efforts to remain close to each other. They each let out a whistling call, for clearly they were signalling friends.
When Tian Mingshan heard this, he became even more anxious and he shouted, "Take them out, hurry!"
However, the impenetrable defense from these two showed no sign of letting them go, plus their strength at the Perfect Void Martial Stage proved to be beyond Tian Mingshan’s ability of getting rid of them quickly.
After they let out three clear whistles, vividly responding whistles were heard in the distance. Catering to the whistles of this side, the two men in black were overjoyed when they heard this response. They waved their weapons in an air-tight formation and defensive nets burst around them. They had succeeded in restricting Tian Mingshan and his people firmly and would never attack recklessly.
In the end, Tian Mingshan was a major Dao Warrior. When he saw this situation, he knew that this matter could not be won as he called out, "Do not linger in battle, retreat!"
Tian Mingshan was a person that could meet gains or losses with equanimity. He had taken the initiative to retreat without thinking twice.
Because of this, not only were the two men in black impressed, even Qin Wushuang could not refrain from noticing Tian Mingshan’s actions. It was not easy to make such a prompt decision.
Tian Mingshan forced the nagging of his opponents. He recognized their voices and shouted, "Their friends are coming from outside the valley, let’s enter the Ten Thousand Flower Valley!"
After he had finished, he started to charge into the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. Inwardly, Qin Wushuang called out a warning. He had taken Luo Zhong as his own. Unexpectedly, before Tian Mingshan and his people could regroup with Luo Zhong, they were stopped by more men in black and were engaged in a hand-to-hand battle.
As soon as Tian Mingshan and his people entered the valley, his plans would thoroughly fizzle out. However, Qin Wushuang would not be overly depressed. In the end, this Luo Zhong was only a chess piece. Even if he was useless today, he would be used one day. Although he could not be used to deal with Tian Mingshan today, he might be a good chess piece to use when dealing with Luo Tongtian of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect in the future.
At this moment, he stopped to hold off his body. It was not because he did not wish to chase and kill Tian Mingshan, but before he could acquire a thorough understanding of the men in black, Qin Wushuang did not wish to expose himself or fall into unnecessary troubles.
After all, they were at the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Enemies of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect might not be his friend either. Perhaps, the men in black were other enemies fighting over for this so-called treasure as well.
If that were the case, if Qin Wushuang were to reveal himself recklessly and kill Tian Mingshan and his group, he would become the target for the other party to attack.
"The smartest choice is to sit this one out and reap the spoils later. Before I get to know the identity of the men in black, I must not make a reckless move," he muttered to himself.
Judging from the stance of the men in black, clearly they were determined to get Tian Mingshan and his two people. Since he did not need to make a move and was able to just watch his enemies suffering, he had no objections!
Qin Wushuang was definitely willing to watch the fire burning across the river.
Among the air, Tian Mingshan and his two people transformed into meteoric lights and dashed towards the deeper part of the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. Almost at the same time, three miserable sounds that broke through the air had emerged from the sky.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Three bursts of light, carrying long streams of air had shot towards Tian Mingshan and his two comrades escaping, like three guided missiles directed by a control system.
These three arrows had shown tremendous power!
When Qin Wushuang saw these three arrows shooting from the sky, he also felt astonished. Regarding their imposing manner, these three arrows were no less than those from Qin Wushuang’s Graceful Spiritual Bow.
Only, the bow and arrows themselves were less than the Graceful Spiritual Bow. Due to this reason, it reduced the power of the three arrows. After a long distance travelled, the arrows had already lost strength by the time they reached Tian Mingshan and his friends.
When an arrow was at the end of its flight, certainly it would be difficult to cause fatal harm. Tian Mingshan and his party blocked them with their weapons and swept them away. They threw themselves by seizing the opportunity and disappeared into the sky.
After the arrows went past, another two figures shot across the sky. They were also figures dressed in black and they hurtled past in the middle of the air.
One of them gave a low shout, "Enter the Hundred Flower Valley."
Th two men in black nodded at the same time, "Yes!"
These two men in black who followed from behind dashed quickly. When Qin Wushuang heard the voice, it sounded clear and crisp. It carried a pampered manner, it was the voice of a girl.
Only, as these two figures had moved at such a rapid speed, Qin Wushuang could not see their exact outlook with just one quick glance.
Without a doubt, the strength and position of that girl must have been prestigious as she could order around the two men in black at the Perfect Void Martial Stage.
A burst of doubt flashed across his mind, yet he could not acquire any answers. He was only left with a head full of puzzles. When these two groups of people had left, Qin Wushuang walked towards the mountain cave.
Luo Zhong had stayed at the mountain cave obediently. Clearly, he had paid attention to the major battle happening, but did not dare to come out to look.
Qin Wushuang instructed, "Wait here, and act according to the situation. Prioritize protecting yourself first. I will be entering the valley now."
After he had gone out the mountain cave, Qin Wushuang summoned back the Moon Palace Jade Hare and it followed at a rapid speed towards the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. There were many routes to enter the valley; however, he would make an obvious target if he were to fly in the air.
Qin Wushuang waved the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings and initiated the chant inwardly. He dispersed his thoughts and flew into the air. In fact, he was performing the Cloud Garment Feathery Technique. Initially at the Monkey King Mountain, Yun Xuechen had passed him this divine skill. After Qin Wushuang had entered the Transformation Void Martial Stage, he had soon achieved a heartening breakthrough after he started to train this skill.
Now, upon performing it, Qin Wushuang realized the miraculous aspect of this Cloud Garment Feathery Technique. He stayed hidden inside the balls of clouds as his entire was wrapped up by their layers. As if merging with the clouds, soon he passed numerous defense lines set by the Ten Thousand Flower Valley.
Qin Wushuang dispersed his spiritual perception and investigated the numerous changes on the ground. Indeed, this Ten Thousand Flower Valley had established a barrier against flying. Although Qin Wushuang was not technically flying, it was still difficult for him to use the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings.
Qin Wushuang opened his sharp eyes and looked towards the center of the valley. He saw that near a giant lawn base, people had filled the surrounding area. An incredible expansive martial arts stage had been put in the middle.
People were sitting and filling the surrounding high ground. Clearly, that was the open arena for the challenge. Qin Wushuang said to himself, "What exactly is the Emei Daoist Sect doing?" Qin Wushuang was not interested in the search for a groom challenge.
He dropped from the clouds after he had verified a relative safe place. Upon having eliminated the ambush from the surrounding area, Qin Wushuang walked over.
With the observant finger jade plate at hand, Qin Wushuang was not worried of losing sight of Tian Mingshan and his two people. Only, unexpected by Qin Wushuang, along the way people were rushing at a high speed towards the direction of where Tian Mingshan had gone.
"Could it be that the knowledge of the Supreme Dao Fruit has spread around like wildfire?" Questions filled Qin Wushuang’s brain. He had a weird feeling about this since he first heard of it.
If this Ten Thousand Flower Valley truly had a Supreme Dao object, the Emei Daoist Sect should be the first to know. If they knew, certainly they would not have opened the Ten Thousand Flower Valley allowing outsiders to get into the valley so easily. However, at this moment, the Emei Daoist Sect was hosting a so-called open challenge as if they were afraid of no one coming.
Was it a coincidence? Or was the Emei Daoist Sect setting up a scheme intentionally? Qin Wushuang pondered over this thought. If it were a scheme set up by the Emei Daoist Sect, then most likely this rumor was fake. It served to hook these people.
However, if the Emei Daoist Sect was attracting these people to take the bait, what hidden purpose would they have?
When Qin Wushuang thought of this, his heart thumped as a bad thought emerged. Could this Emei Daoist Sect be harboring unfathomable motives to lure people to war and ultimately their grave?
Upon thinking of the beautiful woman dressed in palace clothing that he had met at the Bowl Valley, she gritted her teeth with resentment whenever she thought of men. If she were of the Emei Daoist Sect, it would not be too far of a stretch to think that the Emei Daoist Sect was setting up these male martial artists!
The way that woman dressed in palace clothing to torture Qin Wushuang showed she definitely had a twisted and perverted mind.
As soon as Qin Wushuang realized this thought, he became extra alert. On the contrary, he was not in a rush either. The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had come to this Ten Thousand Flower Valley from such a distant place. Perhaps, they might lose their little lives before they could even smell the Supreme Dao fruit.
Qin Wushuang had little interest in the Supreme Dao Fruit, so he would not go crazy over it. He was keeping his head cool at all times.
The most critical thing in this moment was to figure out whether this matter was related to the Emei Daoist Sect or not. Also if this was a trap set up by the sect.
Just when Qin Wushuang was feeling confused, two graceful figures appeared like a flash from the side. It was two women with beautiful figures.
If Qin Wushuang had not been hiding in a dark corner, most likely he would have been discovered by these two women immediately. Through a crack in the air, Qin Wushuang looked towards these two people. Just when he stopped to look at the face of one of the women, he almost cried out. This woman was...
She was truly the young female disciple who followed next to the beautiful woman dressed in palace clothing from the past. She was still dressed in the familiar black clothes. He still remembered that when the beautiful woman in palace clothing ordered her to kill him, she called her "Little Can". The corner of this little girl’s mouth raised up slightly. Her stubborn expression had left a deep impression with Qin Wushuang.
"Senior Sister Can, how many groups of people have come in?" the younger girl dressed in purple asked.
"Who can bother to count? Anyways after they enter this Ten Thousand Flower Valley, this group of stinky men will not even think about leaving here alive. This time, Great Tiger Saint will have a good time rounding up this good food."
"Senior Can, this time will Great Tiger Saint achieve the ninth transformation? Will she truly enter the Supreme Dao?"
"This is hard to say. Now, Great Tiger Saint is at the Eighth Coagulate Spirit. Whether she can pass this great feat will depend on her luck and fortune. If she can truly break it, the six major Daoist Sects will view the Emei Daoist Sect as their head!" When Senior Can said this, her tone could not help but show off pride.
"If she can make the breakthrough before the Ten Thousand Year Immortal Pilgrimage Event, Great Tiger Saint could surely show off her power at the pilgrimage. This way, the Karakorum Immortal Clan will look at our Emei Daoist Sect differently!" The girl dressed in purple clothing also longed for it. Suddenly, she pursed her lips to reveal a smile. "Senior Can, has that idiot you met before come this time?"
Senior Can’s expression turned cold. "You talk too much!"
The girl in purple covered her mouth and let out a chuckle, yet she did not dare to keep asking. Qin Wushuang smacked his tongue upon hearing them. Indeed, it was the Emei Daoist Sect...
