A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 626: Chapter 491: Siege of the True Monarch (Part 2)

The colossal head let out a long roar, like a bull or a dragon, deafening to the ears.

It was an azure Profound Turtle!

Its body was surrounded by the aura of waters, and as soon as it appeared, a light drizzle began to fall mid-air. It bore a blue turtle shell, covered in ink-colored scales, with a roaring turtle head full of fangs, and two flesh horns protruding from its forehead, resembling a dragon’s head at a glance.

The gigantic, round turtle shell was raised high, covered with countless natural patterns forming numerous mysterious talismans, glowing enigmatically amidst the water vapor.

Yuan Xu Spirit Monarch himself was at Mid-Stage Nascent Soul, but this Profound Turtle’s cultivation had reached Late-Stage Nascent Soul!

Yuan Xu Spirit Monarch sat cross-legged on top of the turtle shell, appearing extremely small, gently stroking the incredibly hard shell below, and laughed, ”Cangliu, old friend, it’s time to stretch our bones again.”

The Profound Turtle uttered a low call, with rolling sound waves: ”Yuan Xu, I sense the aura of a True Dragon. The enemy’s origin is extraordinary, we must be extremely careful.”

Floating in the stream water, the Golden Toad let out a croak, as Xi Chan Daoist lay lazily on its body, gazing forward.

Three more escape lights lit up, and roars echoed through the sky. Three Golden Core cultivators from the Spirit Beast Sect had already released their spirit beast companions, and the powerful aura of Golden Core made Lu Qian and the others widen their eyes.

It turns out the Spirit Beast Sect cultivators cultivate and raise their spirit beasts with their heart’s blood, so the beasts’ cultivation generally exceeds theirs by a small realm. In battles, they fight two against one, with double the divine techniques, naturally having the upper hand.

However, there are gains and losses. To nurture the spirit beasts, Spirit Beast Sect cultivators must devote all their resources and energy, leaving no time to nurture magical treasures, practice magic techniques, and talismans. Other arts of immortal cultivation are difficult to find time to learn, so they rely heavily on cooperation with their spirit beasts, making their methods relatively less flexible.

At this moment, the valley echoed with beast roars. There was a Guardian Palace, crystal clear and sculpted from the finest white jade, perched on the cliff with bulging eyes rotating 360 degrees.

A Golden Eagle soared in the sky, its cry echoing through the heavens, with giant claws forged from steel and iron, as black as ink.

There was also a lion with fiery red fur standing proudly on the mountain peak, its mane fluttering in the wind like a blazing inferno.

The cultivation of these three spirit beasts ranged from Mid-Stage Golden Core to Late-Stage Golden Core, with their nurturers standing by their side, fighting alongside the beasts.

At this moment, the small Hidden Dragon Stream was already crowded with experts, making the Yunshan Sect members quite astonished.

Miaomiao Profound Monarch, Yuan Xu Spirit Monarch, Xi Chan Daoist, the three Golden Cores from the Spirit Beast Sect and their spirit beasts, along with the Golden Cores from Qinglian Sect and the Sikong family, their spiritual pressures interwoven, rolling skyward, altering even the high-altitude winds; how could it not be terrifying?

Currently, the Yunshan Sect members stood on the periphery, observing but not entering the battlefield.

Lu Qian was only there to report the situation, and with his task completed, he withdrew to the side. The four sects’ cultivators gathered, and as a small Golden Core Sect member, without orders, he could only watch from the sidelines. If he chose to intervene without orders, he might face reprimand.

With the strongest forces of the Yunshan Sect gathered, Lu Qian felt a bit more confident and stood quietly by the side, waiting for the opportunity.

Amidst the assembled experts, ten breaths passed, and Meng Chi True Monarch could no longer maintain her form, emerging from the spatial crack.

In an instant, an attack like a mountain crashing or sea waves roaring surged towards Meng Chi True Monarch!

Miaomiao Profound Monarch forcefully activated the Kunyuan Water-Controlling Bell, golden light shining, causing a massive upheaval in the valley.

Yuan Xu Spirit Monarch pressed his hand on the turtle shell as the Profound Turtle deeply inhaled and forcefully exhaled.

Divine Power: Ren Shui Divine Abyss!

With a thunderous crash, a blue Ren River spewed from the Profound Turtle’s giant mouth, sending wave upon wave hundreds of feet high, collapsing like a heavenly river, cascading backwards; the riverbanks were shattered by the torrent, with massive rocks swept along crashing towards Meng Chi True Monarch.

The grandeur was astounding, but Miaomiao Profound Monarch snorted. Yuan Xu Spirit Monarch only unleashed the Profound Turtle’s divine power without participating himself, clearly holding back power. If he attacked like this, the Spirit Beast Sect’s Golden Cores would inevitably follow his lead.

Indeed, Xi Chan Daoist merely yawned, clapped his hands, and the Golden Toad let out a loud croak. Its blood-red eyes glowed intensely, and its body shrank to house size.

With a sudden bulging abdomen, it opened its door-sized mouth, and a rainbow beam shot out, dazzling and colorful, directly targeting Meng Chi True Monarch.

Divine Power: Breaking Technique Longbow!

The white jade-like Guardian Palace flickered and disappeared into the air with its nurturer.

Then, a white light bead suddenly brightened mid-air, with sharp buzzing and glaring flashes overlapping, causing Meng Chi True Monarch to stumble in an instant, immobilized with a massive pressure descending like a mountain.

Divine Power: Light Prison Suppression Kill!

The Golden Eagle spread its wings, issuing a piercing cry. Dense wind blades fell like torrential rain, converging into a massive translucent sword over a hundred feet tall. The sword scraped the air’s surface, glowing red-hot, emitting a terrifying screech as it descended, unstoppable.

Divine Power: Punishment Slash!

The Flame Lion roared loudly, shaking its limbs, stepping on fire clouds soaring skyward. With a toss of its head, its mane rippled like waves, scattering instantly like needle rain. Each fiery red mane was formed of compressed flames, inscribed with one after another talisman, inconspicuous in appearance, but absolutely treacherous to withstand head-on.

Divine Power: Lion Flame Mane!

Meanwhile, Guan Tuo of Qinglian Sect executed another technique, waving the Green Glow Lamp and activating divine power.

Divine Power: Fire Spirit Birth!

Emerald flames surged, igniting a sea of fire mid-air, with fire snakes, fire pythons, fire crows, fire swallows, and various fire beasts running back and forth in the flames, circling the Ren Shui current. They weaved a layer of green flame shell around the Ren River.

Sikong Duan of the Sikong family, however, retreated helplessly to the side. The Sikong Clan excelled in martial techniques, and he was skilled in close combat. Given the massive layered assaults, venturing close would inevitably cause harm, so he could only wield a magical treasure to assist from afar.

Even though the assembled experts didn’t use their full might, the sky turned dark, the ground shook, and Hidden Dragon Stream could no longer bear such force; the surrounding peaks shattered!

Such power left the distant watching Yunshan Sect cultivators in awe, knowing that after this battle, the landscape would be entirely altered, and it would hardly be called a ”stream” anymore.

Miaomiao Profound Monarch smiled contentedly. Facing such terrifying attacks, even a genuine Void Refining True Monarch would have the initial reflex to shift into the void to avoid such fierce assaults, let alone Meng Chi, who only possessed Nascent Soul Cultivation and whose spiritual power was nearly depleted?

This is the consequence of looking down on Human Race heroes!

But in the next moment, everyone widened their eyes, their bodies trembled.

In the face of the overwhelming attack, Meng Chi True Monarch’s palm trembled, as a stream of blood from the True Dragon Blood Pearl dispersed, absorbed into her body!

At that instant, a surging spiritual power erupted from her body, the terrifying spiritual pressure surging into the sky.

She could actually harness the True Dragon’s blood to temporarily boost her combat power, and now her cultivation had elevated to Late-Stage Primordial Spirit!

Though this would directly reduce the True Dragon Blood’s aura, prolonging the time for the True Dragon Celestial Monarch to sense this realm and delaying his descent, it was the only option.

The four divine techniques merged again, seamlessly weaving.

With eyes glowing crimson, she beckoned with her hand, and a magnificent, enigmatic image extended from her center, enveloping herself and the True Dragon Blood within.
