197: Chapter 197 Great Battle

Master Baiye's Heaven-Defying strength made the four Purple Mansion Masters present dare not make a Move again.

The remaining Purple Mansion Masters similarly did not dare to come over, fearing that they would also face such a formidable expert.

On the other hand, the Yan Country Cultivators, seeing that their own Purple Mansion Master possessed such strength, immediately saw their morale soar and beat the opponent back step by step.

Giant fireballs shot out from inside the city, and blades of wind about a hundred zhang long swept past.

Various Spell attacks instantly slaughtered a large number of low-tier Cultivators from the Three Kingdoms.

Countless screams rang out; some Cultivators were burned to ashes, some Cultivators were cut in half at the waist, and quite a few Cultivators were pierced through the body by spikes on the ground.

Even though the Three Kingdoms Cultivators who previously surrounded Jizhou City were majestic and mighty, numbering a full two hundred thousand, at this moment they also appeared somewhat battered and in disarray.

As Master Baiye went on a killing spree, three Purple Mansion Masters finally stepped out, the aura of each far surpassing the previous Cultivators.

Without exception, they were all at Purple Mansion Ninth Layer Perfection.

Seeing them, Master Baiye's expression finally became much more solemn. These three were not on the same level as the previous Purple Palace Cultivator, and if they joined forces, it was not impossible for them to contend with her.

Not far from them, people like Mu He were relatively much weaker in strength, but the enemies they faced were just as numerous.

Looking at them, Master Baiye felt somewhat anxious in her heart, but she had no way to spare a hand to help them.

"Hmph! You still have the mind to care about others. Junior Sister Bai Ye, if you are willing to surrender, our Three Kingdoms are quite willing to grant you a place." One of the gray-robed elders besieging Master Baiye persuaded.

"Just you? You are not worthy!" Master Baiye rebuked angrily.

"Stop wasting words with her. For someone as impervious to reason like this, we should finish her off early," the middle-aged man beside the gray-robed elder said disdainfully.

The other cyan-haired man did not refute either, and the three of them struck simultaneously.

Master Baiye furrowed her brows slightly. "Thousand Lotus Illusory Kill."

White lotus flowers bloomed from her palms, and then attacked the opponents.

The gray-robed elder's gaze changed, and with a wave of his sleeve, a golden shield stood horizontally in front of him, blocking this strike for him.

As for the other two, one threw out a Tier 3 defense Talisman.

The other advanced instead of retreating, a cold glint flashing on the cyan sword in his hand. With the sword edge pressing down, a streak of cyan Sword Qi slashed down, tearing apart the white lotus flowers one by one.

Master Baiye's gaze was slightly startled. The cyan-haired man before her was the most difficult of the three to deal with, not only because the other party was a Sword Cultivator, but also because the other party's Purple Mansion had reached thirty zhang.

As for herself, her current Purple Mansion had already reached forty-four zhang. The Purple Mansion would expand as the Cultivator's cultivation increased. Generally speaking, after the cultivation reached Purple Mansion Ninth Layer Perfection, the size of the Purple Mansion was ten times that of the initial state.

As for the other two, their Purple Mansions were of the lowest tier, so even if they reached Purple Mansion Ninth Layer Perfection, the size of their Purple Mansions was at most ten zhang.

"Master Qingfeng is truly extraordinary," the gray-robed elder praised.

Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man also nodded. Although his temper was somewhat irritable, whenever he faced Master Qingfeng, he was somewhat polite.

After all, he was not a fool either.

Seeing that her Moves had no effect on the three of them, Master Baiye hardened her heart and formed hand seals with both hands.

Seeing this, the three of them inexplicably felt a sense of threat.

"Attack quickly, we cannot let her execute her Move," Master Qingfeng immediately said to the other two.

The gray-robed elder and the middle-aged man nodded, cooperating with Master Qingfeng to unleash the strongest Moves they had cultivated thus far.

Twelve cyan-edge swords flew out from Master Qingfeng's Storage Pouch, surrounding Master Baiye within—the Azure Cloud Exorcism Formation.

A large amount of Yin Qi bloomed from the surface of the gray-robed elder's body—Yin Wave Skill.

The middle-aged man patted his Storage Pouch, and a Tier 3 High Grade Blazing Sun Mirror appeared out of thin air. As soon as it appeared, the surrounding temperature instantly skyrocketed.

The three of them attacked simultaneously.

Master Baiye showed disdain. "Lotus Transforms All Things."

Lotus flowers were released one after another, then gathered together. A lotus flower occupying a radius of one li lifted Master Baiye up, and then turned into pieces of lotus leaves slashing toward them.

Boom, boom, boom!

Explosive sounds instantly resounded through the surroundings.

The terrifying qi waves swept through the surroundings, whipping up quite a few Cultivators.

After a while, Master Baiye panted heavily and looked toward the opposite side.

Aside from Master Qingfeng, who was covered in blood, the other two were nowhere to be seen. Looking down, one could only see numerous bloody chunks of flesh scattered everywhere on the ground.

"Puff!" Master Qingfeng spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze filled with shock. He had not expected that even with the three of them joining forces, the opponent still managed to kill two of them. This was truly… too disgraceful.

Not far away, a Purple Mansion Master immediately flew over and took Master Qingfeng away.

As for Master Baiye, after releasing that strike, less than one-tenth of her magical power remained, and she immediately returned to the city. For this period of time, she was considered to have no ability to make a Move again.

As for people like Mu He, she had the heart to rescue them, but while she was fighting Master Qingfeng and the others earlier, they had already been slain. Besides them, there were many others she knew.

Even her eldest Disciple, Luo Yan, had died on the previous battlefield.

"Are you alright, Master?" Su Chen stepped forward to support her, then said with concern.

She had participated in the battle together with her Senior Sister some time ago, but her Senior Sister had been killed by several female Cultivators from the State of Shu joining forces. As for herself, she did not even have the strength to approach that battlefield.

Although she was now a Tier 2 Medium Grade Body Refining Cultivator, and her Spell Cultivator cultivation was still Foundation Establishment Late Stage, even so, the gap between her and a Purple Mansion Master remained enormous.

"I am fine," Master Baiye shook her head.

Su Chen supported Master Baiye back into the Immortal Cave to recuperate.

…

Wuyue Mountain.

"Seventh Brother, Tenth Uncle sent a message saying that a few days ago, some Cultivators attacked some Qi Refining families in Qinghe County, looting all the resources of these families and causing heavy losses to many families.

Yesterday, Foundation Establishment Cultivators even attacked the Zhou Family and the Liu Family. Fortunately, we rescued them in time; otherwise, the fate of these two families would not have been good either. Tenth Uncle told us to be more careful." Chen Changjie came to the back mountain and relayed Chen Yuanwen's message.

"I know. Tell Tenth Uncle and the others to be careful themselves as well. No petty villains dare to come and stir up trouble over here for now," Chen Changqing nodded and instructed.

"Mn," Chen Changjie acknowledged.

In fact, Taihe Prefecture was also very chaotic during this period. The reason why no Cultivators came to Wuyue Mountain to cause trouble was mainly due to the deterrence of Chen Changqing's reputation.

…

"Understood, Tenth Grand-Uncle." Chen Lingxi nodded. Just moments ago, another new Foundation Establishment Cultivator launched a sneak attack on a Qi Refining Family under the Chen Family's command.

During this period of time, she had been outside responsible for hunting down these rogue Cultivators. Only yesterday had she just rescued the Zhou Family and slain two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, thinking that these people would behave a bit more, but as a result, other Cultivators struck again.

Right now, the Cultivators in the entire Qinghe County who could be mobilized to encircle and suppress these rogue Cultivators, aside from the Chen Family, were four other Foundation Establishment families.

It was just that the other four families had no extra Foundation Establishment Cultivators to make a Move.

Only the Chen Family could step in.

Of course, it wasn't because the Chen Family was feeling charitable, but rather that after Chen Changqing entered the Purple Mansion, even though no one in Qinghe County knew about it for now, Qinghe County was currently equivalent to the Chen Family's territory.
