The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun

Page 509

Chongxu's face was very cold.

"good."

The elder in yellow cupped his hands and smiled, "I am here on the orders of the sect leader to await the arrival of Daoist Chongxu from the Wudang Sect. Would you be interested in joining our sect? Our sect leader is eager for talent. As long as your sect submits to the sect leader, wealth and honor will be yours, and you and the rest of the Wudang Sect will not have to die here."

Chapter 694: Reinforcements

Although Ren Woxing had ordered them to ambush the Wudang Sect, the yellow-robed elder still thought that if he could subdue the Wudang Sect, he would surely receive a great reward from Ren Woxing.

Upon hearing this, even Chongxu, with his excellent self-control, couldn't help but sneer.

"Good and evil cannot coexist; please forgive me for refusing."

The smile on the yellow-robed elder's face faded. He said no more, and with a slight raise of his hand, the bloodthirsty members of the Demonic Sect charged toward the Wudang disciples.

On the first day of the battle, the Wudang disciples immediately showed signs of weakness.

After rushing out of the narrow passage, they all had some injuries on their backs. Having run for so long, their physical strength and energy were no match for the Demonic Cult members who had been waiting there for a long time. Not to mention that the number of Demonic Cult members lying in ambush here was much larger than that of the Wudang Sect. In just one exchange, Wudang disciples were killed.

"Wudang disciples, form the sword formation!"

Chongxu shouted, but he was already surrounded by several experts from the Demonic Sect.

After Chongxu gave the order, all the Wudang disciples formed formations, either in groups of three to form the Three Talents Sword Formation or other sword formations. In this way, they temporarily resisted the attack of the Demonic Sect. However, the enemy outnumbered them, and the Wudang disciples were already in poor condition, so the balance of power tilted in favor of the Demonic Sect.

A pale green mist appeared on the battlefield at some unknown time.

"what!!"

Upon smelling the mist, Wudang let out a scream, covered his face and rolled around, but in just a moment his features were completely destroyed and he died a miserable death.

It was the Five Poisons Sect that made the move.

Before coming, to ensure everything went smoothly, Ren Woxing also sent members of the Five Poisons Sect to come with him.

With the Five Poisons Sect making its move, the number of casualties among Wudang disciples increased dramatically.

Seeing his disciples dying one after another, Chongxu was extremely anxious and wanted to break out of the encirclement to rescue them. However, the yellow-robed elder took him very seriously and not only personally came up to fight him, but other experts also surrounded and attacked Chongxu.

As for the other masters of Wudang, they were also engaged in a fierce battle.

"Master Chongxu, there's no need to struggle anymore. Today is your death day."

The elder in yellow robes smiled faintly.

He was one of the six yellow-robed elders who once besieged Jiangning with Xiang Wentian. His martial arts were not weak. Even if he were to fight Chongxu alone, he would not be defeated in a short time. Moreover, he had helpers. As long as no one came to the aid of the Wudang Sect, Chongxu and these hundreds of Wudang disciples would surely die.

"Master Chongxu, why struggle so much?"

Even though victory was assured, the elder in yellow robes continued to interfere with Chongxu's mindset.

“Our leader is a peerless martial artist and is destined to unify the martial world. With your martial arts skills and status, as long as you are willing to submit to our sect, the leader will surely give you an important position. Why should you be so stubborn?”

"Unparalleled martial arts skills?"

Master Chongxu sneered upon hearing this.

"If it were said that Dongfang Bubai's martial arts were unparalleled, that would be one thing, but what about Ren Woxing's martial arts? Would the leader of the Huashan Sect, Yue, agree? Would Dongfang Bubai agree?"

The two people Chongxu mentioned clearly demonstrated the strength to defeat Ren Woxing, not to mention Fang Zheng, who had already mastered the Yi Jin Jing to perfection. In front of these three, could Ren Woxing dare to say that his martial arts were unparalleled?

The elder in yellow robes' expression softened, but he soon smiled again.

"The leader is no longer the same as before. Back then, he had just escaped from the West Lake prison and his internal injuries had not yet recovered. Now, his power has greatly increased, and he has mastered the Star Absorbing Technique to perfection. No one in the world can rival him."

Chongxu's expression remained unchanged, but his heart skipped a beat.

Has Ren Woxing's skill level increased significantly?

Chongxu also noticed that the yellow-robed elder said that Ren Woxing had already mastered the Star Absorbing Technique to a high level.

The Yellow-Robed Elder's lobbying continued.

"Daoist Master, if you are willing to submit to my Divine Sect, you will not die today, and these Wudang disciples will not die either. Why are you so persistent?"

Several experts surrounded Chongxu. Although Chongxu was not defeated, he was only barely holding on. He did not respond to the yellow-robed elder's invitation, but he couldn't help but glance at the battle around him. Just one glance made his heart sink.

Many Wudang disciples have already died at the hands of the evil cultists, and some Wudang disciples are even being tortured.

"what!!!"

A Wudang disciple let out a shrill scream, while the demonic cultist who had captured him let out a chilling laugh, his mouth dripping with blood.

The demonic cultist seemed to be chewing something, with blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

"Not bad, not bad. As expected of a Wudang disciple, the taste is different from that of ordinary people."

After saying that, the demonic cultist lowered his head and bit into the shoulder of the Wudang disciple, tearing off another piece of flesh.

"Master, save me!"

Feeling extreme pain and fear, the Wudang disciple cried out for help to his master, but his master, who was not far away, had already become a corpse.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chongxu felt a tremor in his heart, and his grief was beyond words.

"Master Chongxu, are you still going to be so stubborn? At this point, who can save you? If you don't surrender, you will only face death."

The elder in yellow robes shouted sternly.

Chongxu's expression remained unchanged, but his heart had gradually grown cold.

Are they really going to die on Zifeng Mountain today?

Faced with the premeditated and well-prepared ambush by the Demonic Sect, it is now virtually impossible to fight one's way out. Even if Chongxu himself is skilled in martial arts and manages to escape, the remaining hundreds of Wudang disciples will definitely not be able to escape. Chongxu will not do that; as the leader of Wudang, he has the responsibility to fulfill his duties.

But should we really force Wudang to bow down to the Demonic Sect?

Wudang has its own pride. If it were to bow down to evil and heretical ways, wouldn't it be a disgrace to its founder?

There's no way to escape, and there's no way to bow down. It seems that death is the only option for me today.

Chongxu thought to himself.

Since there was no way out, Chongxu's mindset changed. He stepped forward, bent down, and swept his lower body with a move called "Swallow Skimming Water," ignoring the attacks from the side.

"act recklessly!"

The elder in yellow quickly realized that Chongxu was going to use a strategy of trading blows to kill more people, so he immediately ordered the attack to be intensified.

Several masters attacked Chongxu simultaneously, and even though Chongxu was highly skilled in martial arts, he could not hide his defeat.

At this moment, Chongxu knew that his death was imminent, but he was calm. However, he suddenly remembered that some time ago, when the Demonic Sect mobilized a large number of experts to besiege Jiang Ning, a disciple of the Huashan Sect, they not only failed to kill Jiang Ning, but also lost many of their own and returned in defeat.

It was only then that Chongxu realized that people are indeed different from one another, and also marveled at how heroes emerge from among the young.

At that moment, a huge commotion suddenly arose in the distance.

Boom!Boom!Boom!

The sound came from afar, as if some enormous object was approaching.

Upon hearing this commotion, both sides of the Wudang and Demonic Sect looked into the distance. At first, they didn't notice anything unusual, but their expressions changed the next second.

A gigantic tortoise of enormous size was moving its limbs and breaking through the dense forest, rushing towards this direction at top speed.

This scene startled everyone, but it wasn't over yet. They also discovered that a giant python was coiled on the back of the giant tortoise.

"What kind of monster is this?"

Upon witnessing this scene, a member of the demonic sect couldn't help but speak up.

Compared to the shock of the others, Chongxu and the yellow-robed elders who were besieging him reacted quickly.

A turtle, a snake, could it be...?

Before Chongxu could finish thinking, he seemed to see a person sitting cross-legged on the back of the giant tortoise. The person seemed to have seen the battle situation and immediately stood up, reaching out as if to grasp a sword hilt. The next second, the person disappeared from the back of the giant tortoise.

Ok?

As if seeing things, Chongxu blinked unconsciously. Suddenly, he heard a noise above him. Looking up, he saw a figure falling rapidly, carrying an extremely strong sense of oppression.

Bang!

Before everyone could react, a flash of sword light appeared, and all the experts who were besieging Chongxu, except for the yellow-robed elder, were instantly torn to pieces.

Chongxu finally saw the face of the person who had come.

"Forehead……"

The elder in yellow robes had a vacant look in his eyes and made a hoarse sound as if he wanted to say something, but the next second the hand on his head clenched tightly, and his skull cracked with a sound.

After dealing with this person, Jiang Ning turned to Chongxu with a smile on his face.

"Master Daoist, it's been a long time."

Chapter 695: The Five Poisons God

Chongxu was still in a daze.

Chongxu only realized what Jiang Ning meant after hearing his words.

"Young Master Jiang...you..."

Chongxu was astonished that Jiang Ning would appear here, and Jiang Ning had already spoken.

"My master received news that the Demonic Sect had ambushed the Wudang Sect here, and specially sent his juniors to provide assistance."

Chongxu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Jiang Ning raised his hand.

hiss!

The giant python opened its blood-red maw and roared, then rushed toward the demonic sect members at an extremely fast speed.

"What kind of monster is this!"

Such a massive python was beyond the comprehension of the members of the Demonic Sect, and some were so frightened that they stood frozen in place until the python attacked.

call out!

With a flick of its tail, the giant python sent several members of the demonic sect flying and crashing them into tree trunks in the distance, breaking their bones and tendons.

That wasn't all. The giant python let out a piercing hiss and kept weaving through the demonic sect members. Those who couldn't dodge in time were directly crushed under the python and turned into a pile of minced meat.

The giant python's terrifying nature sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the Demonic Sect.

At this moment, the giant tortoise also joined the battle. Its enormous size caused chaos and destruction, no less than that of the giant python.

Chongxu was speechless upon seeing this scene.

Just then, another commotion was heard not far away. Chongxu turned around and saw that the rest of the reinforcements had arrived.

"Drive! Drive!"

Linghu Chong spurred his horse forward, his expression becoming somewhat excited upon seeing the battle unfolding before him.

"You treacherous villain of the Demonic Sect, your Grandpa Linghu is here!"

After saying that, Linghu Chong slapped his horse's back, leaped into the air, and plunged directly into the crowd.

"Leaving Sword Style!"

Linghu Chong roared and unleashed the Dugu Nine Swords, killing one demonic sect member after another. He was virtually invincible.

"Kill!!"

The martial arts figures who came with Jiang Ning to provide assistance also attacked, their shouts of battle deafening.

Jiang Ning didn't say much, and disappeared from the spot in a flash.

when!

A master of the Demonic Sect swung his sword down, but the Wudang disciple who was being attacked blocked it with his own sword. The immense force of the blow made his arm go numb, and he staggered back four or five steps.

"Hahaha."

The demonic sect expert laughed loudly, stepped forward, and slashed down again. The Wudang disciple blocked once more, but his longsword was broken. The momentum of the slash did not diminish, and it was about to cleave him in two the next second.

The Wudang disciple was filled with despair and could only await his death. But the next second, a sword light flashed and disappeared. The demonic sect expert paused, and then his head rolled off his shoulder and onto the ground before the Wudang disciple's eyes, his face still bearing the previous ferocious smile.
