Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 357: Chapter 299: Flowers Drunk in the Hall

Bai Xiangdong felt offended; the disdain in the other’s eyes was hardly concealed.

So, I’m just a part of your heroic rescue plan, right?

That damn Han Yu came up with a lousy idea. What was I supposed to do? Oh, yes, ask for help.

But now I’m the one leading to lure the monsters.

And the reason seems very convincing.

”You’re the fastest cultivator in Dongling City right now, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else.”

At first, it seemed flattering, but after Bai Xiangdong stepped forward, the more he thought about it, the more it felt off. Clearly, this so-called distrust was actually concern for the injured individuals beside him!

That really stung.

And You Li’s disdainful gaze at this moment hurt even more.

The group from Self-Improvement Sect sneaked up quietly, hiding in a corner.

”Can he do it?”

His cousin looked at Bai Xiangdong, who was motionless in midair, with concern.

”He can definitely do it; these monsters absolutely have their own thoughts.”

Han Yu nodded with certainty. From the time in the Earth Palace, the divine creatures knew to use the Great Cauldron’s suction ability to avoid his flames and kept splitting to continue new lives.

This doesn’t seem like a simple-minded monster. It definitely has a way of thinking.

Moreover, those little monsters from the inn reacted furiously the moment they saw me, indicating they have memories of me.

In conclusion, Han Yu felt that this monster appeared to be a single individual but possessed a group mentality. No matter the environment, it was always trying to develop the group by splitting.

At the same time, it has a biological instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and it’s extremely sensitive. As long as I can’t eradicate all the monsters at once after revealing myself, I’m afraid these ghosts would scatter and flee.

If such a large batch of monsters dispersed, it would be a major problem.

Damn it, the madmen of the Corpse Refining Lineage, how did they create something so defiant of nature?

Now sending Bai Xiangdong to lure the monsters is a plan to draw them out one batch after another, wearing them down wave by wave, so it’s easier to act once the numbers are reduced.

The only way to deal with these monsters is to exhaust them!

And his method was indeed effective. A group of monsters screeched and surged out, even flying into the sky.

Bai Xiangdong was startled because he didn’t know these things could fly. When Han Yu initially said these monsters weren’t dumb, he didn’t believe him!

Hell, even monsters know how to hide their strengths now.

After a moment of panic, he quickly regained his composure, shifted his figure, and flew swiftly toward the pre-arranged position, while a massive, dark group of creatures chased relentlessly behind.

”You two don’t interfere; these things are deadly. Protect Yi Xian and Coconut.”

Han Yu instructed his cousin and the ordinary folks, fearing that these guys might impulsively rush in for excitement, as one mistake could lead to the entire Self-Improvement Sect meeting their demise here.

Bai Xiangdong maintained the stance of White Crane Spreads Wings, darting continuously until he stopped midair above a street with no buildings below. The monsters behind him arrived like a tidal wave as promised.

Hurry, hurry, hurry...

He silently chanted in his heart; he was in position and just waiting for Han Yu to make a move.

Seeing the monster swarm getting closer, with countless small mouths opening to reveal their dark insides, he felt a wave of nausea and tingling at his scalp.

If Han Yu doesn’t act in the next moment, he wasn’t sure he would have the courage to keep standing there waiting.

Fortunately, Han Yu’s action was timely, and he acted before Bai Xiangdong could flee.

An enormous White Dragon shot up into the sky instantly, its wide-open mouth taking away half of the monsters in a flash, and a sweep of its tail cleared the remaining monsters.

”Yah!”

A large group of bowl-sized monsters tried to break free from the restraint with their screams, but the entire White Dragon barely twitched and then remained unchanged. Han Yu stood within the dragon’s mouth, circled his fingers, and ordered, ”Turn!”

As soon as the words fell, the giant dragon instantly curled up and began to spin, turning into an enormous fireball in an instant, hanging high like a small sun, illuminating half the city.

Within the fireball, flames roiled furiously, with the trapped little monsters desperately trying to break a gap with the sheer number of their lives.

But this is no mere barrier; this is Divine Fire!

The monsters’ efforts only fueled the fire to burn more vigorously...

Meanwhile, Bai Xiangdong’s ”suicidal” diversion drastically reduced the pressure on the other side.

At least now, they could barely maintain a state of no more losses in battle. You Li took a deep breath, retreated a few steps, and calmed her mind, waiting to recover.

Lights suddenly lit up brilliantly in four directions in the north of the city, causing her to smile with delight.

They’re here! The sect has sent the elders.

Like meteors cutting through the sky, the four figures arrived in an instant, standing in mid-air with a powerful presence.

The top four elders of the sect had come, led by the Great Elder.

You Li was slightly surprised, but her heart settled, confident that such a lineup would prevent any further significant losses.

”What are these things?”

The Great Elder was slightly surprised, watching the strange liquid-covered monsters attacking the cultivators.

You Li quickly stepped forward and briefly explained the situation, pointing to the puppets on the ground, ”These are the parasitized civilians, continuously creating these monsters.”

They can split, are immune to Blade and Sword, and can meld into shadows to evade damage.

Even transcendental realm cultivators like them had never heard of such peculiar abilities.

”In a moment, lead all the cultivators to disperse, then evacuate the remaining civilians of Dongling City entirely. Do not approach them.”

The Great Elder furrowed his brow and commanded.

If it’s such a strange thing, indeed these cultivators can no longer intervene, at most, they can only protect themselves.

”Who are those people over there?”

In the east of the city, a white fireball like the sun constantly radiated light, instantly capturing the Great Elder’s attention.

You Li, initially busy saving his own life, hadn’t noticed the situation there at all, but it seemed to be in the direction where Bai Xiangdong had fled. However, it couldn’t possibly have been him who caused it. Such a massive flame, in the entire Nanling City, only one person could accomplish that.

”It must be Han Yu!”

”Is it him?”

The expression on the Great Elder’s face was peculiarly strange. He glanced over there a few times, murmuring, ”How does this guy cultivate as if it were as simple as drinking water?”

How long has it been since they last met!

And he’s become this strong already?

In Dongling City, they could barely handle the Realm of Transcendence, and that already terrified these old folks, and now he’s even stronger.

To think, two months ago, everyone wanted to beat him to death.

The Great Elder’s expression became increasingly bizarre. Yes, this was one of the participants in the Ginseng King incident, the victim who gnawed on ginseng roots, licked Luo Yuqi’s head, and drank bathwater.

”Take action!”

The Great Elder quickly recovered his composure, realizing the situation at hand required the swift resolution of these monsters.

As soon as he gave the order, the Second, Third, and Fourth Elders immediately dispersed. When the four of them exerted their strength simultaneously, spiritual power formed a massive barrier that spread outward with the puppets at its center.

In the blink of an eye, an area covering an entire mile was securely locked by the barrier.

”You all can retreat now, Miss You, make sure everything is arranged properly.”

The Great Elder spoke in a muffled voice.

You Li nodded, waved towards the numerous cultivators, and the people of the two divisions.

”We must quickly relocate the city’s inhabitants. Nanli Cultivators should coordinate with the two divisions to take swift action.”

After the evacuation, the Great Elder immediately tossed out a mirror. As the mirror flipped into the sky, it cast a beam of light downward.

Sweeping across, the light dissolved all the monsters it touched.

”Ah!”

The hundreds of puppets below let out sharp cries of anger, attempting to retaliate.

”I’ll handle it!”

The Fourth Elder took out a pipa, and with spiritual power infused into it, massive sound waves instantly drowned out the cries, washing down below.

Swish swish swish!

Invisible blades instantly shredded half of the monsters below into fragments.

The Second Elder released a long whip which unfurled into the wind, instantly stretching to a hundred zhang. As it fell, it danced like a silver snake, quickly binding the puppets together.

The Third Elder flung out a five-colored banner. As earth talisman script faintly appeared on it, it transformed into half a mountain that heavily crashed down onto the puppets.

Under this series of attacks, Nanling City seemed to crumble and shake, the street splitting a mile outward under the immense vibrations.

Even Han Yu could sense the commotion over there, and inside the great fireball, besides him, there was no longer any living thing.

With a thought, the fireball stopped spinning and gradually reverted to the form of a giant dragon, which then burrowed back into his body.

Only then did Bai Xiangdong dare to approach, the white flames just now were frightfully hot, and merely approaching within a few dozen meters had him nearly roasted.

”Thunder and torrential rain all night... do we need to continue drawing it?”

Bai Xiangdong, seeing the other party could easily handle those monsters, suddenly felt confident and volunteered to ask.

”No need, someone has already made a move over there. You go find them, I’ll go over and take a look.”

After saying that, he flashed and disappeared.

On this end, under the earth-shattering explosion, half a mountain slowly rose, but underneath, besides a field of white skeletons, there was nothing else.

”At the bottom of the mountain!”

The Great Elder quickly spoke. The shadow beneath the mountain continuously squirmed, with clusters of monsters jumping out, quickly covering the entire barrier ground. Just looking at the countless numbers made it impossible to count them.

Severed from the puppet bodies, these monsters did not even spare the flesh, consuming it all completely.

Several of them had even reached human size.

”Ah!”

A few large monsters screamed, seemingly issuing a command. In an instant, numerous monsters went berserk, launching a ferocious attack.

Rain of falling blossoms!

Wind and rain swirling!

Drenched in blooming flowers!

In an instant, three strange phenomena surged!

Inside the barrier, it began to rain, with each drop like a sword, drilling into the stone and piercing through one monster after another.

Then the sound of wind and rain roared without cease, sweeping with the momentum of toppling mountains and overturning seas. Wind blades were like knives, slicing flesh and eroding bones.

Suddenly, a fragrance of pears filled the air. Everywhere within the barrier, spiritual power transformed into buds that bloomed into pear blossoms, rising with no wind and drifting towards each monster.
