Chapter 578: Chapter 564 Dragon King, Gold Devouring Ant_2

Now that the other party has escaped unscathed, it is simply an enormous humiliation.

“It’s rare to see an Invisibility Talisman that can evade the eyes and ears of an Immortal Monarch!” Huoyun Ancestor, old and shrewd, seed to have already seen through Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s little tricks. “It seems this youngster is not simple! Let’s attend to the pressing matters first. A re Immortal Master can be dealt with later.”

Harboring grand ambitions, Huoyun Ancestor was not willing to let a minor character affect his grand undertakings, especially not before the business at hand was achieved and the Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect overthrown.

“All disciples of Huoyun Immortal Sect, heed my command! Follow imdiately into the forbidden land of the Sect Master of Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect. Once we annihilate those of Hundred-Tempering, you will be the founding heroes of our new sect. Immortal Techniques, elixirs, spirit grasses, and magical treasures will be at your fingertips, and your status will far exceed your current one.”

Huoyun Ancestor promptly elevated the na from Fire Cloud Tunnel to Huoyun Immortal Sect, highlighting his impatience to realize his ambitions.

Even for these cultivators of high realms, the lure of cultivation resources and social status was irresistible.

The cultivators of Fire Cloud Tunnel, as if injected with an adrenaline shot, followed closely behind Huoyun Ancestor towards the forbidden land of Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, each employing their own thods.

Having held a high position in Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect for many years, Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch, now a spy within their ranks, led the way.

Soon, the group arrived at the forbidden land of Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect.

“Sect Master, just ahead is where the Immortal Venerable of Hundred-Tempering is undergoing the life-and-death trial. According to reliable information, the Immortal Venerable has sealed himself within a wooden coffin, buried deep underground. At this mont, he should be extrely weak, and his strength, at most, barely reaches the level of a Great Immortal Envoy.”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch pointed towards a mountain wall ahead and respectfully reported to Huoyun Ancestor.

Having lost his Innate True Fire, Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch’s strength suffered greatly, and if he did not find a redy in ti, his cultivation could even regress.

He was quick-witted, imdiately addressing Huoyun Ancestor as the Sect Master.

Typically, only after successfully establishing a sect does one earn the title of Sect Master.

“Good!”

A victorious smile spread across Huoyun Ancestor’s face as he ford hand seals and cast a terrible fire snake that shot directly toward the mountain wall.

The mountain wall looked ordinary, with common rocky cliffs, and was covered with so vines, wild grass, and small trees.

If Qin Niu were here, he would certainly realize that these plants were no ordinary vegetation.

The fire snake swelled in the wind, quickly growing to seventeen or eighteen ters in length, thicker than a water bucket and displaying great intelligence.

It smashed viciously against the cliff.

Boom!

A violent explosion swept outwards, causing everyone to shield their faces and deploy mana shields for protection.

But once the flas dissipated, the plants on the cliffside remained unscathed, and faint circles of blue light could be seen.

“This is a defensive formation!”

Huoyun Ancestor turned to look at Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch, his eyes revealing a bit of dissatisfaction.

Not warning him about the defensive formation, was this a deliberate attempt to embarrass him?

“Please discern the truth, old ancestor. This is the Sect Master’s forbidden territory; I do not have the qualifications to enter. I was also unaware of any protective formation here,” Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch said with a frightened look.

His maneuvering for treasures from Qin Niu had already caused Huoyun Ancestor to beco wary.

And now, the issue with the protective formation had added to Huoyun Ancestor’s dissatisfaction.

Unless he no longer wished to remain with Fire Cloud Tunnel, he had to clarify the situation.

Having betrayed Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, if he also incurred the Ancestor’s displeasure, he would indeed find himself in a lose-lose situation like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror—neither human nor beast.

“Hmm, so now you’re aware. Having lurked in Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect for so many years, you must surely know how to break the formation. It’s your move!”

Huoyun Ancestor’s displeasure softened sowhat, yet he burdened Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch with a difficult task.

“This… I shall exert my utmost effort. However, the Immortal Venerable is extrely cautious regarding us; the formations he deploys are bound to be robust. I’m uncertain if I can break through,” Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch truly didn’t have a clue.

Still, he had no choice but to forge ahead.

“Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect is on the brink of collapse, yet here you are, constantly referring to ‘Immortal Venerable’ this and that—are your knees sore from kneeling too long?”

Huoyun Ancestor asked coldly.

After becoming slightly dissatisfied with Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch, he began feeling more and more discontent.

Everything seed thorny to him.

“Thank you for your reminder, old ancestor. I shall definitely reform in the future!”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch felt conflicted. Betraying Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect didn’t seem to have brought him the benefits he desired, and instead, he faced challenges at every turn. Regrettably, there’s no dicine for regret in this world.

If he hadn’t betrayed Hundred-Tempering Immortal Sect, he at least would have been part of the high echelons of the sect.

Now, having taken great risks and bearing a lifeti of infamy, the gains he reaped were minimal.

Having shot the arrow, there was no turning back. He could only see the chosen path through to the end, thinking of ways to make ands and regain Huoyun Ancestor’s trust and regard.

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch brought out a Cherry Blossom Short Spear and stabbed it towards the cliff.

A substantial crimson gleam burst from the tip of the short spear, seemingly invincible and unstoppable.

Thud!

It pierced hard into the cliff wall, and, surprisingly, the defensive blue light rely flickered twice before vanishing completely.

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch looked at the short spear in his hand and then at the cliff wall ahead, delight gradually spreading across his face.

After probing with the spear a couple of tis, the strong defensive blue light indeed was gone.

Now he beca more confident.

“Haha, broken, the defensive formation is broken! The death of those from Hundred-Tempering is nigh! Congratulations old ancestor, soon you will be able to take over and beco the new Immortal Venerable!”

Chi Xiao Immortal Monarch had lived for so many years, and although he hadn’t needed to flatter anyone since attaining a high position, at this mont, his strong will to survive helped him revive his dormant skills in sycophancy.
