Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 353 - 333: Troops Approach the City

Day by day the time passed.

In the Three Realms, especially the White Bone and Xuanyuan, true chaos reigned, presenting a bewildering scene that dazzled the eyes.

First came Changqing Daoist, who mercilessly slaughtered the True Men of White Bone Demon Sect, forcing the sect to retreat and hide within Yunyan Mountain.

Later, in the Illusion Wave Sea, two Gathering Law Realm True Men came knocking but were annihilated single-handedly by Fiery Fire Wanderer, who fought two against one. He then proceeded to slay a newly risen Demon King of Jiupan Po from Heavenly Travel Mountain, unleashing terrifying aggression that reverberated throughout the Three Realms and even into the vast Xia Guang Domain.

The Fiery Fire Wanderer of Illusion Wave Sea, transformed in an instant into a top contender of the Xia Guang Domain!

Next.

Hatred of evil like that of Changqing Daoist, when unable to locate any True Men of White Bone Demon Sect, turned his spearhead towards the numerous Demon Sects and Independent Practitioners of Demon Dao within the White Bone Realm.

Demon Dao was laden with heinous crimes.

Cultivating the ways of the Demon Dao, if one's temperament isn't sound, personality changes drastically towards brutality and slaughter - nothing could be more normal.

Neither law nor path holds intrinsic right or wrong, but beings can be good or evil.

Within the White Bone Realm existed many Demon Cultivators with brutal dispositions—

Quick success through the Demon Dao Method, others amass Evil Qi by killing living beings, or create calamities using artifacts like the White Bone Six Yang Hammers.

Erasing humanity, thus they become demons.

Changqing Daoist wielded his Thunder Skill, flickering unpredictably. In mere moments without warning, he struck continuously, traversing the Seven Sects with Jiedan True Men within the White Bone Realm, executing eleven Demon Dao True Men.

Wiping out sects and killing mountains, indeed his methods were as swift as thunder.

Within thirteen days, he stained the White Bone Realm red with blood.

Beyond the eleven Demon Dao True Men, hundreds of Spirit Void Demon Cultivators from the Seven Sects were wiped out utterly, leaving not a single bone or trace. All those entwined with sin could hardly escape death.

For a moment.

The name of Changqing Daoist echoed throughout the White Bone Realm, causing every Demon Cultivator to tremble in fear. The largest targets, the Independent Practitioners of Demon Dao, panicked immensely with raised hackles. Some hastily fled the White Bone Realm, others fell into the fold of White Bone Demon Sect.

Such a vast White Bone Realm was terrified by one man, Changqing Daoist, to the point of discussing his actions changed one's color.

It proved wise for these Demon Dao Independent Practitioners to flee. After finishing off the Seven Sects, Changqing Daoist continued his onslaught, killing two rather famous Demon True Men, Xuan Shuang and Golden Tiger.

Following that, some True Men dispersed, others joined the White Bone Demon Sect.

In the entire White Bone Realm, not one Independent Practitioner remained. Only then did Changqing Daoist cease his actions and disappeared without a trace.

Leaving behind only a blood-soaked White Bone Realm.

...

And just like that, another half month passed.

On this day.

From the border between Heavenly Travel and White Bone Realm three tunneling lights sped through the sky, heading straight for Illusion Wave Sea.

They were three True Men from the Annihilation Divine Sect.

After two Gathering Law Realm True Men perished in the Illusion Wave Sea, those who came this time were naturally not from the Gathering Realm.

Fei Huo.

Xuan Yan.

Li Gou.

These three names, when called out, would undoubtedly resound throughout Xia Guang Domain. Annihilation Divine Sect housed Nine Golden Cores, known as the 'Nine Elders of Annihilation'. And among these 'Nine Elders', also known as the 'Impermanence Three Friends', were these three.

The trio grew up together, joined the Annihilation Divine Sect together, and cultivated into Jiedan True Men together. Because they resided on 'Impermanence Island', they acquired this moniker. After years of cultivation, they finally stepped into the Golden Core Realm together—a truly beautiful tale.

Amidst the red tunneling light.

"About half an hour later, we'll reach Illusion Wave Sea," said Master Fei Huo, his face aglow, gazing through the void at a distant point, grinning, "Damn it, making me travel a dusty month, once we hit Earth Realm, I'll properly deal with this Fiery Fire Wanderer."

Xuanyuan Realm was remote.

Coming from Duan Kong Water Dock, the continual tunneling light traveled almost twenty days, truly monotonous.

Master Fei Huo was impetuous, enduring bitterly, a substantial anger accumulated within.

Of course.

There was another critical point; he seldom took disciples, only Zou Buping had achieved much, reaching the peak of Gathering Law. He had hopes of advancing to Golden Core, which would significantly elevate his status within the Annihilation Divine Sect.

Yet to be killed, one could imagine the rage.

"Don't be careless."

From within the colorful clouds came a firm voice, that of Master Li Gou.

"Don't worry, big brother."

"This Fiery Fire Wanderer must have some skills to kill Bu Ping and Tu Jiao, certainly not weaker than Golden Core Realm; naturally, I'm not careless," the voice of Master Fei Huo thundered.

"But with the three of us brothers together, leading three thousand soldiers, even if he is as strong as a Golden Core, we'll crush him on the spot. Once captured back to Duan Kong Water Dock, we have many methods to deal with him!"

Master Li Gou, in the form of colorful clouds, his face slightly tense, did not speak.

Master Xuan Yan, like Qing Yan, floated ahead, his speed matching Li Gou and Fei Huo, stated gravely, "This Fiery Fire Wanderer has under his command seven Yin God Protectors equal to Golden Cores, perhaps even more. His mastery of fire skills is extremely formidable, setting Tu Jiao using Falling God Square at a loss. Also, he has cultivated a Flame Demon God, no less remarkable than ordinary Golden Cores."

"Such a person, even placed within the Golden Core Realm, stands as top-tier; even if we wage war leading troops, victory isn't necessarily certain."

"Old Third, don't assume a certain victory." free𝑤ebnovel.com

Among the Impermanence Three Friends.

Xuan Yan and Li Gou were steady and cautious. If not for the constant guidance of these two, given Master Fei Huo's nature, he wouldn't have lived till now, nor achieved Golden Core status.

Thus.

Seeing both Xuan Yan and Li Gou so solemn, Master Fei Huo suppressed the resentment in his heart and nodded, "Understood."

The trio then started strategizing on how to deal with Fiery Fire Wanderer.

...

Outside Illusion Wave Sea.

Crowds thronged.

A month ago, Fiery Fire Wanderer killed two Gathering Law Realm True Men. Soon after, news broke that these True Men were from the Annihilation Divine Sect in the north.

Instantly, the Three Realms were stirred.

Countless practitioners paid close attention, knowing full well that with the domineering nature of the Annihilation Divine Sect, they would not let this go easily. Fiery Fire Wanderer stayed put, and a great battle seemed likely to break out within a few days.

"The Annihilation Divine Sect boasts nine Golden Cores, dominating the Northern Realm far surpassing factions like the White Bone Demon Sect and Heavenly Travel Mountain. Although Fiery Fire Wanderer is strong, he might find it difficult to withstand them."

"That's right. Who doesn't know of the Annihilation Divine Sect's fame? Just look, many who once sought Fiery Fire Wanderer's favor are now silent, some even hiding, afraid of being implicated and inviting trouble."

"In the end, strength is what matters most. Even though a Fifth-Order Alchemist is not weak, compared to the Annihilation Divine Sect, it just isn't enough."

"But still, Fiery Fire Wanderer, being a Golden Core Expert, choosing to come to a remote and impoverished place like the Illusion Wave Sea is really bizarre."

"Haha! That just shows how uninformed you are. Fiery Fire Wanderer occupies the Illusion Wave Sea because of the Blue Gold Tree there. With the Blue Gold Pure Liquid produced by the tree, he can concoct the Mingqing Spirit Water. In just over thirty years, he has earned countless Spirit Stones through various major commerce guilds. Offending the Annihilation Divine Sect is not without calculated risks."

"I almost forgot that crucial point!"

...

Outside the Illusion Wave Sea.

Many practitioners gazed towards the depths of Fiery Fire Island from afar, yet none dared linger within the Illusion Wave Sea. Even sects and loose cultivators who typically operated within the sea had gradually withdrawn over the last month.

Fearing being implicated by Fiery Fire Wanderer.

The vast Illusion Wave Sea.

Fiery Fire Island sat isolated in the middle. Once bustling, it was now deserted and starkly cold, reflecting the solitude of cultivation.

The waves rippled.

About half an hour later.

"They're here!"

The expressions of the practitioners outside the Illusion Wave Sea changed dramatically,

as they saw a surge of energy from afar, with eight hundred miles of clouds gathering. A burst of flame, a wisp of Qing Yan, and a dash of Caiyun descended from afar. In an instant, three thousand Armored Soldiers landed on the clouds, each armed and armored as if Heavenly Soldiers had descended, their magnificent aura and battle spirit soaring to the skies.

Gathering above, enveloping Fiery Fire Island.

"So powerful!"

"Truly the Annihilation Divine Sect!"

"Those are the 'Hundred Battle Daoist Soldiers' of the Annihilation Divine Sect. It's said each one is forged from seasoned warriors with Spirit Void combat power. Individually, they may not match a Spirit Void Practitioner, but grouped in threes or fifties, they far surpass an equivalent number of Spirit Voids. This time, to deal with Fiery Fire Wanderer, they've actually sent three thousand?!"

In the distance.

Han Ji, wielding the Mountain Opening Hammer, widened his eyes with anticipation, "This battle, if the Annihilation Divine Sect wins, no matter the cost, I must request these three to strike and kill Changqing Old Thief. If Fiery Fire Wanderer wins, fearing the Annihilation Divine Sect no more, we can ask for his help to kill Changqing Old Thief, solving the dilemma of the White Bone Demon Sect!"

The might of Changqing Daoist was too strong, leaving the White Bone Demon Sect with no recourse.

A month ago, given Fiery Fire Wanderer's possession of a Flame Formation capable of trapping and suppressing, Han Ji was sent to invite him to join forces against Changqing Daoist. However, before he could arrive, he heard the news of Fiery Fire Wanderer's enmity with the Annihilation Divine Sect.

Daring not get involved with Fiery Fire Wanderer, he quickly turned back.

This time.

He would be that opportunist, waiting only to see the outcome, regardless of the cost, they had to completely resolve Changqing Daoist.

"Both being from the Demon Dao, Changqing Old Thief has slaughtered so many; how could Fiery Fire Wanderer sit back and ignore this?!"

Deep inside.

Compared to the distant Annihilation Divine Sect in the Northern Realm, Han Ji had more inclination towards Fiery Fire Wanderer, whose individual Demon Technique was formidable.

Secretly hiding, Han Ji felt anxious.

In the west.

A python hid in the void, its body coldly isolating all spirit energy. Only its cold, triangular eyes focused towards the direction of Fiery Fire Island. Seeing the three thousand warriors arrive, a flicker of light appeared in its eyes.

"Fiery Fire Demon."

"Provoking the Annihilation Divine Sect, death is the only outcome!"

The python's heart brimmed with violent anger, its murderous intent making its eyes bloody.

Lu Qingfeng could certainly recognize it.

This python was none other than Pan Mountain King from the Heavenly Travel Mountain in the east!

The three kings of Heavenly Travel Mountain shared a deep friendship.

Lu Qingfeng, having killed Jiupan Po on Fiery Fire Island, made Pan Mountain King hate him to the bone. However, lacking the ability, Pan Mountain King could only secretly wait for an opportunity, not daring to act rashly.

This time, he came to witness "how Fiery Fire Wanderer would die".

Even waiting for a chance to strike.

"The Impermanence Three Friends leading the troops, three thousand Armored Soldiers have arrived."

"Even Golden Cores must bow their heads!"

Pan Mountain King anticipated.

Inside and outside the Illusion Wave Sea.

Not just the White Bone Demon Sect, not just Heavenly Travel Mountain.

Not just Han Ji, not just Pan Mountain King.

The Xuanyuan Sect in the south also had people secretly observing.

If Fiery Fire Wanderer lost, that was that. But if he won, surpassing a Golden Core and perhaps even overpowering the Annihilation Divine Sect to become a major demon lord in the Illusion Wave Sea, it would be like a sharp thorn stuck in Xuanyuan Sect's throat.

A slight exertion could drive Xuanyuan Sect into the same fate as the White Bone Demon Sect.

Or possibly worse.

"Only hoping the Annihilation Divine Sect can eliminate this demon!"

In a dark corner, an elegant middle-aged man with graying temples, his presence inwardly controlled, looked towards Fiery Fire Island with a trace of worry in his eyes.

It was Weng Shaoqing.
