296: Chapter 296 The Expected Attack

Nirvana Ancestor

It was definitely a powerhouse at the Nirvana Ancestor level.

However, what Lin Heng was focused on was not this, but rather the fact that this powerhouse was actually able to neutralize the Blood Nether Miasma; this was what shocked him the most.

The Blood Nether Miasma, something that many powerhouses in the Qingxuan Realm were helpless against, had just been resolved like this?

"What's going on? Why am I here?"

"Where are my clothes? Did you guys strip me?"

"Damn it, where is my wife?"

"..."

As the Blood Nether Miasma was neutralized, everyone present regained their consciousness.

This confirmed for Lin Heng that the Blood Nether Miasma had indeed been neutralized by this mysterious powerhouse.

"Thank you, Senior."

Lin Heng hurriedly collected some rainwater and expressed his gratitude to this mysterious powerhouse.

This mysterious powerhouse was naturally Lin Ming, and the method to neutralize the Blood Nether Miasma was naturally obtained by Lin Ming from the Wordless Heavenly Book.

After obtaining the neutralization method, Lin Ming used the Materials he had acquired from the Shangji Sect to refine it and diffused it in the form of rainwater.

Seeing that the Blood Nether Miasma in this city had been cleared, Lin Ming did not linger too long and left directly.

As for Lin Heng, he paid him no mind.

Lin Heng stood in the air for a long time; seeing that this mysterious Senior remained unresponsive to him, he roughly understood the mysterious Senior's intention.

He also left the place.

Qinglun, Huangyu.

A torrential downpour fell, washing away the Blood Nether Miasma.

It completely eradicated this Blood Nether Miasma.

After finishing all this, Lin Ming returned to the Shangji Sect and embarked on his return journey.

...

"Mysterious powerhouse?"

Sect Master Fu Jue reached out his hand, and the jade bottle filled with rainwater landed in his grasp. The jade bottle opened, and a drop of rainwater fell onto Sect Master Fu Jue's fingertip.

...

On the spirit boat.

The forces of the Yongzhen Sect and Yuanxu Mountain left Yuanxu Mountain together.

"The Blood Nether Miasma, this is indeed going to be troublesome." Elder Mu Shan said in a low voice.

"It is troublesome." Peak Master Zhao Wuhai also shook his head.

They could indeed contain the Blood Nether Miasma, but they could not neutralize it. Once these fellows released the Blood Nether Miasma at will, it would be truly troublesome.

She still remembered the tragic situation from five hundred years ago.

He had also personally executed tens of thousands of cultivators infected by the Blood Nether Miasma, and precisely because of that...

She knew that such a tragedy could not be repeated.

They had to find the source of the Blood Nether Miasma and extinguish it, but this matter was already beyond their capabilities.

"These fellows are likely plotting something." Elder Mu Shan continued.

The "fellows" she referred to were naturally the Demonic Path forces and the demons.

Their actions were somewhat too strange, not at all like their past style of doing things, which made Elder Mu Shan feel that there was something odd about it.

These people of the Demonic Path were likely plotting some conspiracy.

"What we can think of, someone else will have already thought of." Peak Master Zhao Wuhai said.

"That's true. I reckon that person from your Yuanxu Mountain has already guessed what they want to do." Elder Mu Shan said.

How could she have forgotten about that person from Yuanxu Mountain? One had to know that in the conflict five hundred years ago, everything was led by that person.

It could be said that if not for that person, the scales of victory would not have tilted in their favor so quickly.

Peak Master Zhao Wuhai did not say anything to this.

He was just wondering whether the Shangji Sect would take action against them.

Actually, he did not think the Shangji Sect would take action against them.

Although cultivators of the Dao of Taiyin had not appeared since the disappearance of Wuji Pavilion, and no cultivators of the Dao of Taiyin had appeared in the Shangji Sect either.

At least, not to his knowledge.

But he believed the Shangji Sect would not do something as foolish as attacking their Yuanxu Mountain for the sake of a single cultivator of the Dao of Taiyin.

"Screech..."

In an instant, hundreds of crows attacked from below. They directly surrounded the spirit boat, their feathers transforming into sharp blades that struck at the spirit boat.

An invisible protective barrier lit up, blocking all these feathers, but this barrier could not hold for long.

"Wu Li!"

A trace of killing intent appeared in Peak Master Zhao Wuhai's eyes.

He moved his feet and left the spirit boat.

He reached out and grabbed, and the feathers filling the sky were instantly crushed under the pressure of this powerful Yuan energy.

Those hundreds of crows stopped their attack at this moment, gathering together and transforming into the appearance of that one-armed man.

"Peak Master Zhao Wuhai, we still have a score to settle between us."

Wu Li looked at Peak Master Zhao Wuhai and laughed loudly.

A dark blade was cast from his hand.

Peak Master Zhao Wuhai frowned, his entire body turning into a stream of light as he charged forward, shattering this dark blade directly and attacking Wu Li.

"Today is your death anniversary."

Wu Li likewise transformed into a black stream of light.

"Go!"

Elder Mu Shan frowned and ordered the Disciple controlling the spirit boat to make it leave quickly.

She inexplicably had a bad premonition.

"Has it finally arrived?"

On the deck, Lin Ming stepped up slowly.

He had also guessed that their return journey this time would probably not be so smooth.

However, the fellows who had taken action and those who had yet to take action were both a bit beyond Lin Ming's expectations.

Could it be that their guess was wrong?

"Elder Mu Shan, I also have a score to settle with you."

An old woman leaning on a cane blocked the path in front of the spirit boat, her gaze landing on Elder Mu Shan.

"Old fox."

Upon seeing this old woman, Elder Mu Shan's expression changed.

This old fox was precisely the Nirvana Realm demon that had fought with her in Pancheng that day.

When the Blood Nether Miasma swallowed the entire Pancheng, this old fox had stopped fighting her and run away directly.

Yet now, it had appeared here.

Her premonition was indeed correct.

These demons' target was them.

The old woman poked her cane into the air several times, and several rays of green light appeared, forming chains that targeted the entire spirit boat.

"Hmph..."

Elder Mu Shan naturally could not let the opponent succeed in her goal.

She raised her hand and pointed.

With one point,

the wind and clouds changed,

these several chains were all shattered.

But this was just the beginning.

The old woman's offensive had only just begun.

The entire spirit boat shook at this moment.

"You all leave here as quickly as possible."

Elder Mu Shan still left the spirit boat; if she kept protecting the spirit boat, it would be no different from a living target.

They couldn't leave even if they wanted to, so she had to face this old fox herself.

Elder Mu Shan flew out of the spirit boat, and cold wind began to rise between her hands.

The successive departure of two True Monarch of the Other Shore-level figures made the atmosphere on the spirit boat a bit more solemn.

But after all, they were Disciples of major Sects and had experienced great storms and waves, so they quickly adjusted their state of mind.

The spirit boat immediately deviated from its original route and sped forward.

However, Lin Ming was a bit depressed at this moment.

He even began to suspect if someone had cast a curse on him.
