421: Lure the enemy

Yao Qin was directly choked by the Nine Heavens Battle General’s words.

Although the Yao Sisters were now fully loyal to Gu Liangyuan, they were still human after all.

So, while they would strictly follow Gu Liangyuan’s orders, they still felt a bit guilty when facing their former sisters.

But the Nine Heavens Battle General’s words instantly dispelled the last bit of guilt in their hearts!

“Fine, fine, we’re useless!”

“I hope you don’t cry later!”

With a surge of suppressed anger, Yao Qin remained silent, turned, and left.

The two Immortals behind her saw this, wanted to persuade her, but ultimately said nothing more.

They exchanged glances, then followed behind the Nine Heavens Battle General, chasing after the Yao Sisters.

As for Mo Emperor, no one had looked at him from beginning to end.

But Mo Emperor, proud as he was, maintained a smile when facing these Immortals, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

It wasn’t until everyone had left that Mo Emperor’s expression turned grim.

“These Immortals are truly high and mighty!”

“Fortunately, they won’t stay in the Kong Sang Realm for long before leaving, otherwise, I would rather not be this Mo Emperor.”

“Kill him. Once Gu Liangyuan is killed, the world will be peaceful.”

“Great Zhou, Great Lu, none of you will escape!”

“This world, in the end, belongs to my Mo Zichu!”

Various thoughts flashed through Mo Emperor’s mind, and he called out to the Void Realm in the distance:

“Wang Hu!”

As Mo Emperor’s voice fell, a burly man tore through the Void Realm and appeared out of thin air.

“Command the five thousand Dragon Guards to be ready, prepared to counterattack at any time!”

Wang Hu said nothing, only nodded heavily.

“Go.”

...

At the same time, Gu Liangyuan, who had been secretly listening to Mo Emperor’s thoughts, learned all of this.

“Nine Heavens Battle General, huh…”

Gu Liangyuan began to inventory his trump cards: Xuan Nv Diagram, Qian Tong Shen, Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow, jade drum, Mourning Rod, Tathagata Golden Talisman, celestial projection…

Gu Liangyuan fell into decision paralysis, wondering which one to use to kill him.

For the three people who had arrived, Gu Liangyuan’s objective was clear: kill the male, keep the females.

Of course, the premise was that these two had to be obedient.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Liangyuan took out the Mourning Rod and handed it to Zai Xiyue behind him:

“This item is called the Mourning Rod. I obtained it by killing the Pavilion Master of the Gathering Treasures Pavilion, and it contains a remnant True Immortal soul.”

“With the establishment of the Underworld, the enemies you face will also increase. This item is for your self-preservation.”

Zai Xiyue received it with both hands:

“Thank you, Master.”

“Ding! Host has given away the Mourning Rod, triggering a five-fold return. Return reward: Shentu Yulei Diagram.”

Name: Shentu Yulei Diagram

Rank: Ancient Immortal Treasure

Effect: Shentu Yulei are the earliest Door Gods in the world, later serving as the Eastern Ghost Emperors, suppressing all ghosts.

Within this diagram, there are remnants of Shentu Yulei (Grand Unity Rank).

After reviewing it, Gu Liangyuan frowned slightly.

He had originally thought that a moderately powerful spiritual item would be enough to deal with this Nine Heavens Battle General.

He didn’t expect to receive such a powerful item in return.

Grand Unity Rank is above Golden Immortal Rank, using it to kill a True Immortal would be a bit of a waste.

Gu Liangyuan was reluctant to use it.

After much thought, he set his sights on the Xuan Nv Diagram.

Xuan Nv Diagram: Contains three Great Luo Rank pressures.

Use the Xuan Nv Diagram twice first, then bestow it upon a disciple for the last use.

No problem.

In fact, the Xuan Nv Diagram was Gu Liangyuan’s backup plan.

Yao Qin held the Kirin Ruler, and Gu Liangyuan intended to use the Ruler and the Three Corpse Ancestors to deal with this so-called Nine Heavens Battle General.

But Gu Liangyuan was always cautious, so to be safe, he had prepared the Xuan Nv Diagram in advance.

However, before that, Gu Liangyuan still wanted to try and use great love to influence the Nine Heavens Battle General.

great love gourd, Corpse Ancestors, Kirin Ruler, three Xuan Nv Diagrams.

Having decided on his strategy, Gu Liangyuan waved his hand at Zai Xiyue:

“Take the Yellow Springs Sect people and hide. The upcoming battle is not something you can get involved in.”

Gu Liangyuan spoke casually, but Zai Xiyue felt a bit uneasy.

As a disciple, when her Master was in trouble, not only could she not help, but she was a burden…

Clutching the Mourning Rod in her hand, Zai Xiyue made up her mind that after this matter was resolved, she would definitely spend a year or two in the Void Tower.

She was too weak now.

As soon as Zai Xiyue left, Gu Liangyuan felt a surge of Spiritual Qi pouring into his limbs and bones.

His Physical Body broke through another Rank, Undergoing Tribulation Fourth Stage, accomplished!

The increase in power completely calmed Gu Liangyuan’s somewhat anxious heart.

Nine Heavens Battle General? I’ll see what he’s about!

...

The Yao Sisters led the three Immortals to the vicinity of the Yellow Springs Sect. At this time, there were two layers of grand formations above the Yellow Springs Sect.

One layer was the isolation grand formation intentionally set up by the Yao Sisters, and the lower layer was the Yellow Springs Grand Formation.

Yao Qin spoke: “We’re here. I’ll go and open the grand formation now.”

Without waiting for Yao Qin to act, the Nine Heavens Battle General spoke indifferently:

“Why bother?”

As his words fell, he flicked his sleeve, and a gleaming silver spear appeared out of thin air, thrusting directly towards the grand formation.

Whoosh!

Due to the spear’s extreme speed, the Yao Sisters only saw a flash of silver light, and the two grand formations were successively broken, revealing the scene within the Yellow Springs Sect.

Within the Yellow Springs Sect, Gu Liangyuan stood with his hands behind his back.

The moment the grand formation was broken, Gu Liangyuan sensed it.

After looking up once, he fled in a hurry.

The Nine Heavens Battle General had not seen Gu Liangyuan before, but now seeing Gu Liangyuan’s handsome face, combined with his fleeing movements, he immediately concluded that this person was Gu Liangyuan, without needing the Yao Sisters to point him out.

Without the slightest hesitation, he took a step, and his figure disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already behind Gu Liangyuan.

Law of Space.

Gu Liangyuan recognized this familiar method.

However, Gu Liangyuan’s mastery of space was clearly superior to that of the Nine Heavens Battle General. Although the Nine Heavens Battle General pursued relentlessly, he was never able to catch up to Gu Liangyuan.

“A bit interesting.”

The corner of the Nine Heavens Battle General’s mouth curled up slightly, and a hint of excitement appeared on his face.

It was as if he had encountered prey that interested him.

Seeing this, the Yao Sisters quickly said to the two Immortals:

“Sisters, let’s go down and help the Nine Heavens Battle General.”

Saying this, they took the lead and headed straight for the Nine Heavens Battle General.

However, just as she was about to reach the Nine Heavens Battle General, she was pushed away by a palm from him:

“You two stay put. It’s good enough if you don’t cause me trouble.”

Leaving this remark, he attacked Gu Liangyuan again.

The two Immortals who had intended to help, seeing the Nine Heavens Battle General’s attitude, also felt annoyed and immediately stopped their movements, watching coldly from the sidelines.

Gu Liangyuan frowned as he watched this scene.

In his plan, it would be best to lure all three into the Yellow Springs space.

Otherwise, killing one and having the other two escape would also be troublesome.

He never expected this Nine Heavens Battle General to be so arrogant!

Sensing the Nine Heavens Battle General relentlessly pursuing him from behind, Gu Liangyuan suddenly stopped his fleeing steps.

He had originally intended to kill the Nine Heavens Battle General in one blow, but now it seemed that if he didn’t break this person’s arrogance, it would be impossible to lure the two female Immortals down from the sky.

Name: Jiang Ming

Affiliation: Eastern Immortal Court Nine Heavens Battle General

Cultivation: True Immortal Late Stage

Immortal Foundation: Supreme Grade

Immortal Dao Law…

Gu Liangyuan checked Jiang Ming’s Divine Ability Cultivation Technique one by one, and one particular Divine Ability made Gu Liangyuan wary:

Name: Heaven Deceiving Art

Rank: Forbidden Technique

Effect: Can temporarily deceive the Heavenly Dao by consuming Lifespan. Duration depends on the amount of Lifespan consumed.

No wonder the Immortal Emperor sent this person to the Lower Realm; it turns out he possesses such a secret art.

A True Immortal at full combat power could probably destroy a world in minutes.

Too bad he met me.
