Chapter 15: Pursuit
Punanzi let out a wild laugh upon hearing this, his expression sinking as he said:
"Forget it, break for me!"
As he spoke, he waved his right hand, and the giant peak slowly rose.
Then Punanzi opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of Nascent Soul Qi, and instantly the giant peak expanded several times over.
"Fall!"
Punanzi changed the hand seals in both hands, pointing at the giant peak as it slowly pressed down.
Instantly, under the heavy pressure of the giant peak, the grand array protecting the mountain emitted wave after wave of unbearable "crack, crack" sounds.
"Boom!"
Immediately after, Punanzi urged his magic power, and the giant peak fiercely pressed down by three inches.
Cangsong Peak trembled, and accompanied by a series of rumbling sounds, the entire massive mountain body was actually forcefully pressed down by dozens of zhang.
And the stone bridge connecting Cangsong Peak and Hengyue Peak also snapped from the middle, its remains falling into the mountain ravine.
At the same time, the Hengyue Sect's grand array, the Formless Transformation Void Array, could finally no longer resist the heavy pressure of the giant peak.
Then, like a shattered mirror, it broke into pieces of light spots, dissipating in mid-air.
The remaining two array-base white jades also burst successively, and Liu Wenju and the Core Formation Stage old woman fell to the ground one after another, unable to move for a moment.
Once the grand array protecting the mountain was broken, a solemn expression also appeared on Sun Xuan's face.
Sun Xuan was seen quietly giving Wang Lin a look, and then Wang Lin silently approached Sun Xuan's side.
At this time, Sun Xuan also couldn't figure out Punanzi's thoughts; it would be fine if Punanzi let everyone leave.
Otherwise, once Punanzi made a move and wanted to exterminate the Hengyue Sect.
Then Sun Xuan would only be able to risk taking Wang Lin and charging out.
Punanzi let out a cold snort, his body floating down lightly from the sky, and then he spoke to Liu Wenju and the Core Formation Stage old woman:
"Every word this old man said before is true. Those few Nascent Soul Stage ancestors of your Hengyue Sect were watched by this old man as they fell in battle!"
Liu Wenju heard this, exchanged a bitter look with the old woman, and said in a low voice:
"Senior, please consider our past friendship between the two sects and don't…"
Before Liu Wenju could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Punanzi with a gloomy face:
"Scram! You cannot take anything away. If you talk nonsense again, don't blame this old man for being ungracious and personally wiping out your Hengyue Sect!"
Liu Wenju looked at the Killing Intent in Punanzi's eyes, his heart turning cold, and he dared not say anything more.
He could only heave a sigh, and then said with a dim expression:
"Forget it, all Disciples of the Hengyue Sect listen up, follow us and leave!"
Liu Wenju and the Core Formation Stage old woman just wanted to lead a group of Disciples away when Punanzi on the side suddenly spoke:
"Wait, today my Xuandao Sect is opening its mountain gates here to recruit Disciples.
If any of you wish to join, you may also stay here."
Sure enough, as soon as Punanzi's voice fell, a large portion of the Hengyue Sect's Disciples and Elders chose to join the Xuandao Sect.
Although Liu Wenju and the Core Formation Stage old woman were angry in their hearts, they were helpless.
At this moment, Liu Wenju seemed to have thought of something, raised his head, and looked towards Sun Xuan.
Seeing that Punanzi didn't make a move but instead chose to let everyone leave, Sun Xuan also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Seeing Liu Wenju looking over at this time, he only met his gaze and slightly cupped his fists, then took Wang Lin and flew away from the Hengyue Sect's mountain gate without looking back.
"Forget it, forget it…"
In an instant, Liu Wenju seemed to have aged decades, his already elderly figure appearing even more hunched over.
Then, together with the Core Formation Stage old woman and a group of Hengyue Sect Disciples who chose to follow them, he left the Hengyue Sect mountain gate full of desolation.
After everyone left the Hengyue Sect, Punanzi waved his hand with flashing eyes, signaling the crowd of low-tier Disciples to withdraw.
Then he spoke to the several Core Formation Stage Cultivators of the Xuandao Sect beside him:
"A centipede dies, but it never falls apart!
The Hengyue Sect seems to be in decline, but among them, there are those with extraordinary natural talent.
This time during the two sects' exchange spar, my Xuandao Sect didn't even win against the other side.
Leaving such a future trouble really makes this old man uneasy in his heart.
However, my Xuandao Sect forcibly seized the Hengyue Sect's mountain gate; there are no knowing how many factions in the State of Zhao are secretly observing in the open and in the dark.
If I openly disregarded my status to annihilate everyone in the Hengyue Sect, it would make my Xuandao Sect look far too ungraceful in its methods!
Therefore, you few shall secretly tail the remaining Disciples of the Hengyue Sect and deal with all of them.
Especially those two fellows who left alone; the younger one has extraordinary talent and was actually able to defeat the strongest Inner Sect Disciple of my Xuandao Sect.
The older one, although trying his utmost to hide his cultivation, still couldn't escape this old man's eyes.
He appears to be only at the 5th layer of the Condensing Qi Stage, but in reality, he has already reached the cultivation of the Early Stage Core Formation.
These two people must definitely not be left alive either!
How about this, Li He, Duan Wuya, and Zhou Liancheng, the three of you will be responsible for slaying Liu Wenju and the crowd of Hengyue Sect Disciples.
Chen Yao, Li Mi, the two of you will catch up with that pair of Master and Disciple, and make sure to take their heads!"
Following Punanzi's instructions with Killing Intent flashing in his eyes.
One Late Stage Core Formation Cultivator and two Early Stage Core Formation Cultivators were seen rapidly flying away from Hengyue Peak, chasing in the direction where Liu Wenju and the others left.
Meanwhile, two Middle Stage Core Formation Cultivators traveled together, chasing in the direction where Sun Xuan and Wang Lin left.
Sun Xuan brought Wang Lin to fly in mid-air, seeing that they were quite a distance away from the Hengyue Sect's mountain gate.
While breathing a sigh of relief in his heart, he wanted to lower his cloud head to rest for a bit.
Yet before Sun Xuan could make any moves.
Two not-weak auras appeared in the distance, and then rapidly approached the two of them.
Feeling those two auras of at least Middle Stage Core Formation, Sun Xuan's expression instantly turned gloomy.
"Master, has something happened?"
Wang Lin by Sun Xuan's side saw his expression change and asked with some worry.
"The Xuandao Sect ultimately is unwilling to let us go; now at least two Middle Stage Core Formation Cultivators have chased after us to kill us."
Hearing this, Wang Lin's expression instantly changed.
"Let's go!"
Before Wang Lin could say anything, Sun Xuan took Wang Lin and sped up, flying rapidly into the distance.
Sun Xuan was not afraid of these two Middle Stage Core Formation Cultivators.
However, firstly, he was bringing along Wang Lin, a dead weight; once a fight broke out, it would inevitably restrict his movements.
Secondly, this place after all wasn't too far from the Xuandao Sect; in case Punanzi chased over, it would truly be troublesome.
It would be better to run farther first, put Wang Lin down, and then it wouldn't be too late to deal with those two tails.
The two Middle Stage Core Formation Cultivators of the Xuandao Sect in the distance saw Sun Xuan accelerate and flee.
They also immediately urged their magic power, chasing even faster toward the two of them.
The two groups of people, one chasing and one fleeing, completely distanced themselves from the Xuandao Sect.
Not long after, Sun Xuan stopped in mid-air, and then spoke to Wang Lin by his side:
"Wang Lin, your cultivation is not enough, leave on your own first.
Wait until this Master solves these two tails, and I will go look for you!"
Hearing Sun Xuan's words, a look of worry instantly appeared on Wang Lin's face.
However, Wang Lin was not the dilatory type; he knew that staying here would not only be of no help, but would also make Master distracted to take care of him.
Therefore, although Wang Lin was worried in his heart, he still spoke:
"Master, be careful in everything.
If the people of the Xuandao Sect hurt Master, this Disciple swears that one day I will definitely exterminate the entire Xuandao Sect!"
Sun Xuan laughed heartily upon hearing this and said:
"Rest assured, just relying on those two trash who chased over, they are not this Master's match!"
