Chapter 2409 Ambush
"stop!"
The female cultivator in the phoenix crown gave a delicate shout, and with a wave of her jade hand, she threw out a spiritual net, which was woven from animal sinews.
The spiritual net descended upon Qin Sang, accompanied by thunderous roars of beasts.
Gray mist emerged from each of the beast tendons. The gray mist was malevolent and full of resentment, transforming into bizarre beast shadows, like vengeful beast souls, with crazed and ferocious expressions.
The roar was like a demonic sound, piercing straight into the mind.
‘Wow! ’
Suddenly, the sound of the waves surged, almost as loud as the roar of a beast.
The sea of clouds transformed into a vast lake, with surging waves all around, its blue waters stretching to the horizon.
The White Dragon King stood on the crest of the wave, still trying to persuade Qin Sang, but his attack was ruthless.
‘Wow! ’
A white shadow leaped out of the water; it turned out to be a white dragon. Shadows of dragons kept flashing around, and a rough count revealed a total of nine.
Nine dragons playing in the water!
Qin Sang's expression became slightly dazed, and it seemed that she was about to be trapped here by the nine dragons working together with the spirit net.
Excitement flashed in the eyes of the effeminate young man.
Suddenly, Qin Sang's eyes flashed with a sharp light, showing no sign of being affected by the roar. At the same time, her phoenix wings burst forth with lightning, the azure lightning dazzlingly bright, and her escape speed suddenly increased dramatically!
Qin Sang swept his gaze across the area, locking onto two of the dragons. His eyes then focused on the weakest point between the Spirit Net and the Nine Dragons, a feat accomplished by the Heavenly Eye Butterfly.
‘Crack! ’
Upon hearing the thunder, the three demons saw a bolt of blue lightning pass between the two dragons, stirring up towering waves.
The White Dragon King and the Phoenix Crowned female cultivator both paled, realizing they had underestimated Qin Sang; her escape techniques were beyond their reach. Furthermore, the Phoenix Crowned female cultivator's Ten Thousand Demon Net, which would normally cause even cultivators of the same level to be caught off guard and have their minds shaken, had left this fellow completely unaffected.
In haste, the two demons hurriedly used their supernatural powers, and the nine dragons emerged from the water, head to tail, while the surrounding wind and waves became even more intense, with towering waves crashing towards Qin Sang.
The female cultivator in the phoenix crown roared, and the beast souls on the spiritual network suddenly merged into one, creating a huge shadow above the battlefield.
‘Boom! ’
A gigantic leg emerged from the shadows, as thick and heavy as a mountain, somewhat resembling a bull's hoof, and stomped down towards Qing Lei!
'boom! ’
The ox's hoof slammed into the water, but it lagged behind Qin Sang by a step, narrowly missing the bolt of blue lightning. It was a pity for the white dragon, which took the fall for Qin Sang; half its body was submerged, with only its head struggling above the surface, emitting mournful cries.
The bull's first hoof missed its mark, and then a second giant leg appeared, also missing its mark.
'boom! ’
'boom! ’
'boom! ’
Four gigantic legs stomped down one after another. Any other cultivator would probably have been crushed into mincemeat long ago, but they didn't even touch the hem of Qin Sang's clothes.
‘Wow! ’
Azure thunder burst forth from the waves, leaving a spray of water behind, and then sped away. Moments later, the spray gathered again, transforming into a figure—the White Dragon King.
The White Dragon King watched the departing Azure Thunder and gave up the pursuit. The phoenix-crowned female cultivator and the effeminate young man quickly caught up.
"Why did you stop pursuing, fellow Daoist?" the effeminate young man asked anxiously.
"Can't you see, fellow Daoist?" the White Dragon King retorted. "Even if the Plague King and I joined forces, they would be caught off guard and entangled in the Ten Thousand Demon Net for a period of time. Although this person's cultivation is inferior, he is using top-notch supernatural powers."
"Husband, could this one also be..." The female cultivator in the phoenix crown hesitated before speaking.
"Perhaps he is a subordinate of some demon saint, but definitely not a direct descendant!" the White Dragon King asserted.
The direct descendant of the Demon Saint would certainly not take this deadly path.
The White Dragon King advised the effeminate young man, "Fellow Daoist, don't be impatient. There may still be opportunities later, as long as we can limit his escape techniques..."
The effeminate young man was unwilling, but he could only endure it.
……
Having shaken off the three demons, Qin Sang had already rushed into the depths of the sea of clouds. Not far ahead, a golden light appeared and disappeared intermittently.
Seeing that the three demons had not caught up, Qin Sang withdrew her escape light and came close to the golden light.
Just then, the golden light disappeared, and the clouds here were vast and no different from other places. He waited for a moment, and then golden light appeared in the clouds, as if a lantern had been lit. The golden light grew brighter and brighter, and the clouds became thinner.
Through the golden light, Qin Sang saw a golden pagoda.
The golden pagoda has only three stories. What's peculiar is that it is a tower of light, as if the light and shadows are projected from elsewhere, and can be seen clearly both inside and out.
"what is this?"
Qin Sang looked the light tower up and down; it was completely empty, devoid of anything. She tried to sense it with her life star, but received no response. However, as soon as the thought of entering the light tower arose in Qin Sang, she inexplicably sensed a sense of impending danger.
Qin Sang seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that the White Dragon King and the others had also sensed it and dared not trespass, so they had been lingering here.
He did not act rashly, but flew to the next golden light and found that it was also a light tower, only slightly different in shape.
The third one, the fourth one...
Qin Sang scanned his surroundings, and as far as his eyes could see, towering structures of light sat amidst the boundless sea of clouds.
The secret of this place must be related to these light towers, but where should we begin?
Qin Sang turned her gaze to the right and saw the figure of the White Dragon King in the distance. The three demons had experienced the power of the Thunder Escape Technique and did not come to cause him any more trouble. Now both sides were focused on comprehending the secrets of the Light Tower.
But one thing is certain: it is inextricably linked to the Way of the Stars!
Qin Sang ordered the Heavenly Eye Butterfly to fully activate its Heavenly Eye Divine Power, bringing the sea of clouds into its field of vision. The location of the light tower and the pattern of its flashing were quickly clear to him, but he did not discover any pattern as he had expected.
After a moment of contemplation, Qin Sang flew to another location, and more and more light towers entered his mind.
These light towers are like twinkling stars in the night sky, forming a star map.
"star map?"
Qin Sang's heart stirred. She connected with her destiny star, imagining that her own destiny star was also part of this star chart, but she felt at a loss because this was not a real star chart.
"No! It should be like this..."
Qin Sang suddenly thought of something, activated her cultivation technique, and tried to use her destiny star to connect with the light towers in various directions. If one light tower did not respond, then she would try two, three, or even more.
If we consider these combinations of light towers as various celestial phenomena, find the celestial phenomena associated with our ruling planet, and thus locate our ruling planet in the star chart, perhaps that is the key to unlocking the secret.
There are countless light towers in the sea of clouds; it is an extremely tedious process of constant trial and error!
Qin Sang was very patient, but soon realized that she had underestimated the difficulty of the matter, and the process of deduction was extremely mentally taxing.
When the first astrological sign that resonated with her destiny star appeared, Qin Sang was secretly delighted, but unexpectedly, she then discovered a second, a third...
This was only the first step; he needed to identify the only correct one from all the celestial phenomena.
Not only does it consume mental energy, but it also places high demands on a cultivator's cultivation level and the depth of their connection with their destiny star. Qin Sang, however, is confident that she can definitely outrun the effeminate youth!
"I see!"
There is no distinction between day and night here. Qin Sang's expression shifted slightly as she made a new discovery.
It turns out that the star map formed by these light towers actually corresponds to the real star map. However, the builders of the light towers used various methods to confuse the eyes. Qin Sang has finally seen through the fog and discovered a pattern!
He pressed on, and everything became clearer and clearer. But when he took the final step, Qin Sang suddenly stopped. He thought of a problem: he had cracked the secret of the Light Tower and opened the 'Star Map'. Even if he could gain the upper hand, the White Dragon King and the others could also gain inspiration and relentlessly pursue him.
The White Dragon King's ability to become the overlord of the Lotus Crossing Marsh is not to be underestimated!
However, as long as the effeminate youths are eliminated...
Qin Sang's eyes flashed with a fierce light. After a moment of contemplation, his figure quietly disappeared into the clouds.
On the other side of the sea of clouds, while Qin Sang was comprehending the 'star map', the effeminate young man was doing the same thing. The White Dragon King and his wife protected him on either side, without disturbing Qin Sang.
Where is he going?
The female cultivator in the phoenix crown noticed Qin Sang's movements.
"It seems he has already figured something out," the White Dragon King sighed inwardly as he looked at the effeminate young man.
The effeminate young man was covered in sweat, clearly not making good progress and ultimately inferior to his opponent.
The White Dragon King didn't bother Qin Sang for two reasons: first, he couldn't do anything about Qin Sang's escape techniques; second, he felt he had already wasted too much time here and wanted Qin Sang to guide them.
"Fellow Daoist, wake up!"
The White Dragon King awakens the effeminate young man.
The effeminate young man stuffed a handful of pills into his mouth to calm his breathing. Feeling that he had lost face, he followed the White Dragon King and his wife without saying a word, flying to the place where Qin Sang had disappeared.
"Fellow Daoist, be careful and adjust your breathing as soon as possible!"
As they sped along, the effeminate young man suddenly heard the phoenix-crowned female cultivator's telepathic warning and was startled. "Fellow Daoist, what makes you say that? Does he dare to...?"
“It’s better to be prepared!”
Before the female cultivator in the phoenix crown could finish speaking, the effeminate young man inexplicably felt a tightness in his heart, and at the same time heard the White Dragon King let out a stern shout.
"How brave!"
Both the White Dragon King and the Phoenix Crowned female cultivator showed surprise in their eyes. They did not expect Qin Sang to be so bold as to actually attack the effeminate young man. This was unlike last time when Qin Sang simply ran away and relied solely on her escape techniques.
"Since you've come to me of your own accord, don't leave!"
The female cultivator in the phoenix crown had already secretly prepared the Ten Thousand Demons Net and immediately activated it. However, having learned from her previous experience, she focused her mind on the phoenix crown as she made her move. A red gemstone was embedded in the front of the phoenix crown.
The gem flashed and suddenly shot out a beam of red light, shooting like an arrow towards the back of the effeminate young man.
The White Dragon King was the first to spot Qin Sang's whereabouts and reacted even faster. A rainbow light flew out from his chest, transforming into a round shield the size of a fist. The surface of the shield was inlaid with various agate gems, making it colorful and dazzling.
The shield spun rapidly and flew towards the effeminate youth. Before the shield even arrived, a giant shield phantom appeared behind the effeminate youth.
Where the red light reached, a figure could be faintly seen.
Even before the human figure appeared, two streaks of light appeared. With a crisp clang, the Heavenly Lock and the Earthly Ring clashed, unleashing the power of the Void Domain.
"Void Realm!"
The White Dragon King and his wife exclaimed in unison.
At this moment, Qin Sang was forced to reveal himself. Facing the red light, he neither flinched nor avoided it. Suddenly, a mountain shadow appeared in front of him, firmly protecting him behind the mountain.
'Om! '
The red light struck Mount Daiyu, causing the mountain to tremble violently. The female cultivator in the phoenix crown seemed to be subjected to a tremendous backlash, and her face turned slightly pale.
The power of the red light was blocked by the divine mountain. Qin Sang raised the Daiyu Immortal Mountain and swung it fiercely.
'boom! '
The treasure shield and Mount Daiyu collided, and both paled in comparison!
Just then, a dragon's roar suddenly rang out, sounding just like a real dragon, shaking heaven and earth. Dark clouds gathered above the White Dragon King's head, and a white dragon appeared and disappeared in the clouds, its scales, claws, and horns exactly like those of a real dragon.
The white dragon exuded a terrifying dragon might, merging with the aura of the white dragon king. The white dragon king's eyes revealed an eerie light, and his right arm transformed into a giant dragon claw, fiercely grabbing at the enemy.
At the same time, the female cultivator's phoenix crown transformed into a divine bird, its wings flapping out divine winds.
Qin Sang felt a chill run down her spine and fully activated the power of her Dharma Image and the Great Vajra Wheel Seal. Mount Daiyu swelled once more, transforming into a majestic divine mountain to simultaneously meet the attacks of the dragon claw and the phoenix crown female cultivator.
A deafening roar shook Mount Daiyu, which had actually withstood the combined attack of two top experts.
"help me!"
The effeminate young man cried for help.
The White Dragon King and the phoenix-crowned female cultivator looked closely and realized that the effeminate young man was trapped in the void and could not escape.
Even cultivators in the late stage of the Void Refinement realm are extremely wary of the Void Domain, let alone the effeminate young man, who now seems to be sinking into quicksand, getting deeper and deeper.
"Husband, stop him!"
Only then did the White Dragon King and his wife realize how serious their misjudgment of Qin Sang was. However, the effeminate young man could not be ignored. The female cultivator with the phoenix crown made a hand seal, her body transformed into a spirit bird, and her figure instantly became ethereal.
'Kaka...'
With a series of cracking sounds, the White Dragon King's left arm also transformed into a dragon claw, gripping Mount Daiyu tightly with both hands.
At this critical moment, another unexpected scene unfolded, much to the surprise of the White Dragon King and his wife.
A figure suddenly appeared behind the effeminate young man.
This person was surrounded by lightning; he was not a living being, yet his aura was extremely terrifying.
"Fellow Taoist, be careful!"
The female cultivator in the phoenix crown urgently warned him, knowing full well that it was too late. The effeminate young man, trapped in the void realm, had encountered such a terrifying enemy; his chances of survival were slim!
"No!"
Sensing the danger of death, the effeminate young man desperately unleashed a supernatural power, transforming his hands from his fingertips into wood and his skin into rough tree bark.
'Shuh! '
Before the transformation was complete, a lightning spear thrust forward, and the one who made the move was none other than the Thunder Beast Warrior.
Qin Sang's avatar only took the Grey Oriole Sword with her; all the other treasures were left with her main body.
……
"Fellow Daoist, please come down!"
Qin Sang laughed loudly, then shook his arms, causing Mount Daiyu to press down hard forward. The White Dragon King let out a muffled groan, and his dragon claws trembled.
At the same time, a stream of light flew out from Qin Sang's sleeve and disappeared into the void, forcing the hidden spirit bird to come out.
Even if the female cultivator with the phoenix crown possesses profound supernatural powers, how could she possibly deceive the eyes of the Heavenly Eye Butterfly!
‘Boom! ’
The sacred mountain trembled again, and visible shockwaves simultaneously enveloped the White Dragon King and his wife.
Qin Sang held up the immortal mountain, his movements powerful and unrestrained, while simultaneously battling the White Dragon King and his wife. Since falling into this land, he had felt out of place and had to hide his identity, rarely experiencing such exhilarating moments.
"Having revealed so much, I hope it won't disappoint me..."
Qin Sang glanced into the depths of the sea of clouds and thought to herself.
Using Mount Daiyu as his army, Qin Sang fought two top experts simultaneously, doing everything in his power to stop them from rescuing the effeminate youth. For a time, the two demons were unable to force Qin Sang away.
Not long after, screams rang out on the battlefield. Looking in the direction of the sound, one could see that a lightning spear had pierced through the chest of a Dharma image. A thunderous explosion followed, and the Dharma image was instantly torn to shreds.
"excuse me!"
Qin Sang laughed heartily, then retreated into the mountains.
