Chapter 531: Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Seven: Accident (2)
However, failing to send reinforcements doesn’t mean the Mi Clan can’t assist Mi Yang’s actions. The Tang Clan, upon hearing of Tang Luo’s ambush, will surely dispatch a Martial Ancestor to his aid. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out the shortest point between two locations is a straight line. As long as the Mi Clan dispatches their top martial artists to blockade the corridor between North Mountain and Red Cloud Mountain, they can delay Tang Clan’s reinforcement.
Even though Mi Yang’s actions have undermined the plans of Clan Head, Mi Jin and Mi Shen, the two still decided to assist Mi Yang as much as they can, despite knowing the yield won’t be as high as having Tang Luo fight Xiao Ziyu as planned and “accidentally” ending up killing him.
After all, Mi Yang has done more than one can count for the Mi Family, the top figure in the Mi Clan. Even if he acts out of line, all they can do is bear with him against their wishes.
They let Sect Head Mi Hai, the one with the fastest action speed, lead several eminent individuals from the Fierce Realm to block their path. The Mi clan had not been idle these days, continuously reconciling the cooperation between seven eminent martial artists and Mi Clan’s martial artists. The initial results were apparent, and this battle will be a good opportunity to see the progress they’ve made.
Wind Media Department of Mi Clan has long known that Tang Luo has won over four fierce realm martial artists from Du Family. However, for Mi Yang, defeating them is just a worldly issue. As long as he buys enough time for the top figure of Mi clan, that would be the greatest help to him.
Ten miles North of Red Cloud Mountain, up in the sky
Sect Head Mi Hai was clutching his chest, feeling his shaking entrails with an unbelievable expression on his face.
Combined with the Qingmu Battle Body, the collision damaged part of his spiritual soul. As the most crucial secret technique of the Mi Clan, the formidable Qingmu Battle Body virtually embodies the strength of a Mi Clan martial artist.
Currently, the three strongest Battle Bodies in service in the Mi Clan were the Divine Wood Avatar of elder Mi Yang, Sect Head Mi Hu’s Qing Shura Body, and his Qingmu Battle Body. Although the Battle Body he hastily consolidated hadn’t reached its highest level, it being shattered directly was a first.
Fortunately, Thousand Green True Qi transformed by Thousand Green True Skill acts as a tonic to Mi Clan’s martial artists and is detrimental to outsiders. It circulated among the viscera, greatly alleviating Mi Hai’s injuries. However, since his spirit soul was injured, he lost his ability to take action for a short time.
Tang Sen, standing in the void, looked pale. He naturally wouldn’t feel good after smashing the Qingmu Battle Body with his physical body, as reaction force is always mutual.
As much shock Mi Hai endured, that’s how much he endured, on top of the impact from the Burst Body. If it weren’t for the Divine Armor, his Thick Earth Defensive, he would’ve ended up injured regardless of how sturdy his physical body is.
With his combat experience, Tang Sen naturally could analyze that Mi Hai was now unable to fight due to the shock of his spirit soul. This was the best time to strike him, but he understood that his priority was to assist Tang Luo.
A simple analysis would reveal, since Mi Hai was confronting him here, the only person among currently in service Mi clan’s martial artists who could pose a serious threat to Martial Ancestor Tang Qian would likely be Mi Yang, the top figure of Mi clan.
He, like Tang Sen, is capable of astonishing speed through high proficiency in controlling his physical body, and his Divine Wood Bloodline grants Mi Yang an extremely potent ability to conceal himself. He was the only one capable of evading detection by Wind Media operatives stationed at the outskirts of South Ridge, reaching the top of Red Cloud Mountain without making a sound.
The thought of Mi Yang making a move on Tang Luo set Tang Sen, as a father, into a frenzy. There was no room to consider whether or not to subdue Mi Hai. Suppressing the discomfort of his body, he prepared to bypass the sect head of Mi Clan and rush over to assist Tang Qian.
However, before Tang Sen could accelerate, a ghostly figure shot out from the flood, entangling his legs. Before he could break free, numerous sharp points emerged from all directions, bombarding his vital acupoints.
West of Red Cloud Mountain’s Camel Peak
The target of Mu Yi Qing Long was Du Sha, who held the Red Crystal Giant Blade. In Mi Yang’s mind, the Mu Yi Qing Long suppressing Martial Ancestor Tang Qian should’ve been able to easily deal with a ferocious martial artist from Du Family, but he had never expected that when the defensive Red Cloud Skill combined with Stone Heart Bloodline, it would create a formidable martial artist.
Du Sha, who had already summoned two giant statues, naturally had no way to resist the attack of Mu Yi Qing Long. His remaining spiritual power is not enough to engage in a direct battle with Mu long. But Hero Du, who has grown accustomed to being in dire straits, might not have much experience with advantageous battles but is incredibly adept at dealing with such desperate situations.
Stone Heart Bloodline’s ability, Stone Made Life, seems to have become an instinct. Du Sha kept infusing his bloodline ability into the ground, creating hundreds and thousands of Willow Branches made from Red Crystals that form into a Thorny Vine, entangling the approaching Mu Yi Qing Long.
Once the Red Crystal with lethal energy property enwrapped the Mu Yi Qing Long, it stripped away the spiritual light from it. The Mu Dragon, originally shining with azure brilliance, became dim after being wound by countless Crystal Willows.
Although the Qingmu Giant Dragon was still tenaciously trying to attack Du Sha, the hindrance of those dragon bodies that had lost spiritual power coupled with binding from the Crystal Willows has made its movement increasingly rigid. Mi Yang’s surefire strike was defused by Du Sha, who was nearly drained of spiritual power.
What irritated him were not just Du Sha’s countermeasures, but the fact that Tang Qian, who was knocked flying, was uninjured and quickly returned to the battlefield. He, however, didn’t rush to counter-attack Mu Yi Qing Long, nor did he land to guard Tang Luo. Instead, he attacked the Qingmu Cage trapping the two ferocious martial artists of the Du Family with Vermillion Bird’s multiplied by three sealed technique.
Soon after the echo of the phoenix sounding throughout the world, the divine bird Vermillion Bird carrying boundless flames crashed into the Divine Willow Cage. The burst of fire mark made a gap in the sturdy cage, freeing the two trapped ferocious martial artists of Du Family.
He who was full of rage, Du Ling and Du Wei, exited at the very first moment and attacked Mu Yi Qing Long. Knowing they couldn’t hurt the divine willow, both chose to aid Du Sha.
Although they didn’t want to admit it, they understood the power difference between themselves and Mi Yang from just being trapped.
Before Du Ting arrives, only Du Sha and Tang Qian have the chance to hurt Mi Yang among them. Hence, what they need to do is to take over Du Sha’s duty to protect Tang Luo, allowing both of them to fight without restraint.
Watching Du Sha being reinforced, Mi Yang realized that the overall situation has changed. If those few hurt Mu Yi Qing Long who lost its Spiritual Light Protective Body, his left arm will be injured. Hence, he quickly recalled Mu long, increased the spiritual power output of the willow branches, and tried to crush Du Sha’s two giant statues in a short time.
Under the infusion of vast spiritual power, every willow branch entangling the two giant statues swelled up two or three times, and the power greatly increased with the change in size. The original creaking noise turned into a cracking noise, the two giant statues almost shattered under the boundless gigantic force of divine willow.
Although Tang Qian and Du Sha reacted quickly, they, at this point of Spiritual Power consumption, were helpless against these vines already infused with a large amount of spiritual power. A strike from both of them could only shatter a few strands, while countless willow branches entangled the two giant statues.
Once the two giant statues were annihilated, Mi Yang could still dominate this battlefield, leaving the others with nowhere to escape..
