NOVPUBWu Du sneered: "Although we are also a vanguard team, our tribe already received a promise that once the area is conquered, it will become our territory. Although it’s a bit barren, that’s not a problem, as long as there are enough living beings for the Snake Venerable to feast on. Even if it’s a bit slower, it’s fine... so, are you finally going to join our Feather Serpent Tribe or not?"
Ji Yuan pondered for a moment before opening his mouth to say:
"It seems like I have no other choice?"
A strange expression flashed across Wu Du’s face as he stared into Ji Yuan’s eyes:
"You indeed have no other choice... so, are you ready to disclose the defensive setup of the Southern Shoreline of West Sea Country?"
Ji Yuan’s brow unconsciously furrowed.
The defense of the West Sea Country boils down to many Formations set up in advance and the cooperation of some cultivators.
However, since it was his first time in the West Sea Country, he only knew a little about its particulars. He did not understand it entirely.
"I’m not very familiar with the defense on the Southern Shoreline."
Unexpectedly, Wu Du seemed to have already known this answer. He didn’t mind and asked again:
"Then, how many Venerables... are there in Nascent Soul stage on the Fengyu Mountain now? What are their abilities?"
Ji Yuan fell silent for a moment.
In his mind, he tried hard to recall the figures of Martial Uncle Xumi and Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple.
Martial Uncle Xumi’s abilities needn’t be mentioned. With his Sword Dao cultivation base, within the Sect’s Nascent Soul cultivators, those who claimed they could surpass him could be counted on one hand.
His heart-sword could appear out of nowhere be it miles away as long as it could be sensed. Its power was unmatched.
The only problem... was that because he had severed his arms himself, it was even easier to deal with him if he got close.
Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple was the fifth personal disciple of the Longevity Sect. Although he was not the top existence among the Nascent Soul cultivators, he had reached the late-stage of Nascent Soul. His weakness was that he reacted a bit too slowly.
As for other Nascent Souls...
The life stories, strengths, and weaknesses of every Nascent Soul cultivator began to form slowly, frame by frame, in Ji Yuan’s mind.
He didn’t speak for a while, but surprisingly, Wu Du didn’t urge him but revealed a faintly concealed smile on his face.
Just at this moment, Ji Yuan seemed to finally come back to his senses and hesitated: "Here, in the Nascent Soul stage, there’s Martial Uncle Xumi, Yuan Changgeng, Gu Yuxuan, Lan Xinyi... My master once said that Martial Uncle Xumi’s weakness lies in his poor stamina. As long as one can endure through the early stage of the battle, there is a possibility of counteracting. And Yuan Zhen’s personal disciple’s weakness is..."
Wu Du quietly listened to Ji Yuan’s words. The look in his eyes when he looked at Ji Yuan was increasingly profound. He laughed:
"Then, what are the details within your Sect? How many have achieved Immortal Ascension, how many... hmm?"
Wu Du suddenly paused in confusion, meeting Ji Yuan’s cold, slightly crazed eyes, and... the sudden blast of a saber from his sleeve!
The saber-light lifted from below and immediately swelled, as if it would split the entire island!
Bang!
A giant hole was cut open at the dead end of the geographical position not far beneath!
The water flow burst into the air like sharp arrows!
The boundless saber-light and countless saber shadows, violently slashed towards Wu Du!
In the chaotic water light, Ji Yuan’s voice echoed all around:
"I’ve been waiting for this blow, and you…"
"What are you waiting for?!"
...
’Swish!’
The piercing whistle filled the entire area of Elong Beach!
In Wu Du’s pupils, reflections of the saber-light and the sky full of saber shadows...
That saber shadow even contained a hint of intense threat that made him feel uneasy!
However, Wu Du’s face still had a hint of astonishment, as if he still didn’t quite believe:
"How could it be! That’s not what you were thinking in your heart!"
"Leader! Dodge it quickly!"
The cultivator behind him shouted urgently.
Under the intimidating saber-light that seemed to cut everything apart, the Golden Core cultivators behind Wu Du had already panicked and flew away in haste.
Only then did Wu Du fully awaken, but he didn’t panic.
After all, he was a Class IV cultivator. Although he felt the danger, it was still easy for him to dodge a straightforward attack from a Golden Core.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt something and lowered his head.
He saw a headless body suddenly spit out an octagonal mirror, which swayed slightly, casting a mirror light directly at him!
He only felt that his body had suddenly become incredibly heavy, as if he was stuck in a quagmire!
"This is bad!"
Wu Du abruptly widened his eyes!
He suddenly raised his hand, wanting to break free of the mirror’s binding.
However, the next moment, his field of view was filled by the saber-light, saber shadows, and the sky full of water mist…
"No!"
The spray of water mixed with seawater that Ji Yuan had stirred up at the same time shrouded the entire sky, blurring everything.
Ji Yuan stared straight ahead.
His body was violently heaving. Just now, that strike had drained all his energy.
With his current state, he couldn’t swing the second blow. It was his last resort.
It was also the blow he was most satisfied with so far.
However, he knew clearly that no matter how amazing the blow was, the final result was the standard to gauge whether it was successful.
Mu Guishou had already reconnected his severed head to his body. His complexion was pale. He didn’t have time for further discussion. Like Ji Yuan, he silently stood beside him, looking into the dense water mist.
This water was tainted with Yuanci’s power, making it impossible even for Spiritual Sence to penetrate it.
However, with the water mist fading.
Seeing the scene in front of him, both Ji Yuan and Mu Guishou went pale, their moods completely sinking:
"He’s not dead... and there are two more Nascent Souls!"
Two cultivators now stood in front of Wu Du.
