Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 538 - Golden Core Confrontation

Chapter 538: Chapter 538 Golden Core Confrontation

Weifa City, Carefree Pavilion.

In the private room on the fifth floor, Wang Chen once again met Yun Feifei, Li Mengyan, and Sun Yulian.

It was Yun Feifei who had invited him to this gathering. When Wang Chen received her message, he was already near the Carefree Pavilion, so he gladly accepted the invitation to meet.

Yun Feifei had significant connections within the Sect, and she was much better informed than him.

In the current situation of Weifa City, various rumors were flying around the taverns; it was impossible to distinguish the true from the false.

Wang Chen was also in urgent need of some reliable information.

Otherwise, he would be too passive.

“Senior Brother Wang.”

The four of them, having bonded through adversity, did not bother with courtesies and went straight to the point upon meeting, “How have you been recently?”

In reply to Yun Feifei’s concerned inquiry, Wang Chen smiled wryly, “All right, I guess.”

At least he had found a place to stay; many cultivators were living in tents on the streets and alleys.

Given the current circumstances, one could not ask for too much.

Yun Feifei picked up the teapot and poured a cup of Spiritual Tea for Wang Chen, “Do you know? Mou Guangji, Senior Brother Mou, hasn’t returned.”

“Senior Brother Mou?”

Wang Chen was momentarily stunned.

Today was his fifth day back in Weifa City.

And just yesterday, Weifa City had completely sealed off, cutting off all internal and external communication.

It was said that no more pioneering cultivators had returned.

Everyone understood that those who could not return probably would never be able to come back!

Wang Chen had not expected Mou Guangji to be among them.

Remembering the fellow sect member who appeared simple on the outside but was shrewd on the inside, his heart felt a pang of sorrow.

Although Mou Guangji was quite opportunistic, the interactions between the two had been relatively good. They simply had different paths and went their separate ways.

This outcome was not what he wished to see.

Wang Chen could only say, “What a pity.”

Yun Feifei sighed, “To my knowledge, less than half of the Mutual Alliance Society’s members have returned. This catastrophe from the Yin Nether Realm is truly terrifying.”

She glanced at Li Mengyan and Sun Yulian, who were sitting next to her, and continued, “Senior Brother Wang, now that the Teleportation Array is inoperable, we’re all trapped here. In case the city falls…”

Li Mengyan and Sun Yulian both showed worried expressions.

Weifa City might seem impregnable, but the catastrophe unleashed by the Yin Nether Realm was unprecedented. Now, with Evil Qi looming overhead and demons running rampant, no one dared to say for certain that staying in the city was safe.

Yun Feifei’s intention was to prepare for the worst. If the most awful situation arose, everyone would band together to break through and seek a chance for survival.

Forming a small team would surely be stronger than going it alone.

Wang Chen nodded, “Count me in.”

Actually, everyone knew that if it really came to that, breaking out would likely be a dead-end.

It was nothing more than seeking comfort in numbers.

But there was no need for him to refuse.

Boom!

Just then, an earth-shattering explosion sounded from outside.

The Carefree Pavilion shook violently, and the cups on the table overturned.

New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.

Wang Chen’s expression changed, and he immediately leapt out of the private room and onto the pavilion outside.

He saw a massive cloud of Evil Qi appear in the sky above Weifa City, spinning at an alarming speed. Streaks of purple lightning snaked through the cloud, ready to strike at any moment.

The protective barrier of Weifa City flashed with brilliant light, creating intense friction with the encroaching Yin Sha Energy.

“Ha!”

Accompanying a deep shout, a golden-white beam of light shot up from within the Sect’s Law Hall, piercing through the Evil Qi cloud that hovered over the city.

The cloud of Evil Qi suddenly contracted, then expanded once again.

The next moment, an arm covered in black scales reached out from the cloud, its sharp fingers reaching toward Weifa City.

This arm was hundreds of feet long, its palm spread out to cover the entire great hall.

Accompanying it was an intangible and insubstantial pressure, heavy as the abyss!

Wang Chen’s breath caught, and the circulation of mana inside his body became sluggish, feeling very uncomfortable.

And the three women who had just arrived at the pavilion with him, each one looked deathly pale.

Weifa City was shrouded in this evil demonic pressure, countless cultivators shivered violently, as terrified as if doomsday had arrived.

“Break!”

A furious shout suddenly shattered the demonic pressure, and tens of thousands of fierce sword lights rose from different parts of Weifa City, piercing straight into the rolling evil clouds.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The God-Slaying Cannons set up on the Defense Towers fired beams of scorching light simultaneously.

In the high sky, there was suddenly a muffled groan.

Winds swept and evil qi surged; although it was cut into pieces by the counterattack from Weifa City, there was no sign of it dissipating.

“Begone!”

A thunderous roar echoed like a bolt from the blue: “Leave this realm!”

Everyone inside Weifa City heard it clearly and understood perfectly.

The evil demon hidden within the clouds was issuing its final ultimatum to them!

This was the presence of a Golden Core!

“Evil demon, meet your death!”

The response to it came from White Monarch True Person’s enraged shout.

A Fire Dragon suddenly soared into the sky, its massive body wrapped in intense flames, raising its head and letting out an earth-shattering roar.

It charged into the evil clouds at an astonishing speed, colliding violently with the demon hidden inside.

It was White Monarch True Person casting a powerful spell.

But before the Fire Dragon could unleash its mighty power, numerous demonic arms broke through the clouds, entangling it tightly.

The Fire Dragon struggled, desperately biting at these demonic arms, but also had its body torn open by the demon’s sharp claws.

Countless flames fell from the sky, as if a spectacular fireworks display had started!

In just a moment, the Fire Dragon let out a mournful cry and was torn apart.

The evil demon also lost dozens of arms, with both sides suffering heavy losses.

Immediately afterward, another series of dazzling sword lights shot straight into the heavens.

Each beam of sword light contained terrifying power!

The evil clouds above Weifa City violently contracted, coalescing into a huge double-horned demonic figure, enveloped in rolling black mist, quickly fleeing and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The oppressive force that had been hanging over Weifa City also dissipated entirely.

But before the cultivators in the city could rejoice, a rumbling sound came from outside the city.

“Enemy attack!”

The warning horns and the sound of war drums sounded together, shaking everyone’s heartstrings.

As the Carefree Pavilion stood tall, Wang Chen could see the outside of the city. He saw vast black smoke rolling towards the city walls, with evil spirits flickering in and out of sight.

The retreat of the Golden Core evil demon was not the end of this war,

but the beginning!

On the city walls of Weifa City, each battle cultivator and Taoist soldier looked extremely solemn, heavy crossbows were loaded with arrows, and the God-Slaying Cannons began to glow with the light of accumulating power.

Since the establishment of the fortress by the West Sea Sect in the Yin Nether Realm, this was the largest crisis Weifa City has faced!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Tens of thousands of stone projectiles whistled through the air, raining down on Weifa City like droplets.

Each stone projectile was enveloped in a layer of black smoke, ferociously baring its claws and teeth!
