Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 176 Disasters and Tribulations

"That's not good!"

Wei Zhong looked at the smoke and dust raised by the Wang family and murmured:

"Has the Wang family been infiltrated like a sieve in these days?"

Hearing Wei Zhong's words, Cheng Ruirui beside him said:
"I heard that Ying Xian is the only fourth-rank formation master in the Wang family, and has partial authority over the Galaxy Mirror Formation..."

"No wonder!"

"Even a fourth-level formation master can rebel?"

Wanyan Fu couldn't quite believe it.

Even for the Nascent Soul forces, people like fourth-level formation masters, fourth-level weapon refiners, etc. are not ordinary people, and their status is generally only lower than those in power and Nascent Soul cultivators.

In theory, it should be noted that he has connections with everyone in the Wang family.

"It's really strange!"

Xun Yangzi was also puzzled, "Could it be that the Wang family is a little cold to Ying Xian because of that fairy Wang?"

Wang Qianxi and Ying Xian are both fourth-rank formation masters, so it is not surprising that this is possible.

After a discussion, everyone still couldn't guess the real reason.

Who could have imagined that Ying Xian was possessed by a demon?
"Who cares? The Wang family is in turmoil now, so we just need to ensure our own safety."

Wanyan Fu protected Cheng Ruirui behind him and said this, Wei Zhong and Xun Yangzi both nodded.

In the formation not far away, Wang Yonghong and the other two had already firmly suppressed the fourth-level demon bird.

However, with the formation above his head restraining him, it was not easy to take it down completely.

Seeing that the situation was developing in an increasingly unpredictable direction, Wang Yonghong became anxious.

He secretly sent a message to Miaoli Shan and said something, but was rejected by the other party.

Seeing that there was no other way, Wang Yonghong had to speak out:

“All the Nascent Soul attacking enemies have been contained by our side, and the rest are only at the Core Formation stage. We hope that all the visitors can lend a hand.

“For anyone who kills an invading enemy, my Wang family will certainly reward you generously afterwards, including magical instruments, elixirs, and various spiritual items.

"If there is a fellow Taoist who can kill the formation master named 'Ying Xian', my Wang family will not be stingy even if it is a fourth-level spiritual object."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people on the Nebula Peak suddenly became agitated.

Most of the people gathered on this peak are Jindan cultivators who came to visit the Wang family, and Wang Yonghong’s words were also addressed to these people.

Money can tempt people, and immediately many Jindan cultivators flew out from this peak and headed towards the various places of the Wang family where the fight had broken out.

Miaoli Shan watched this scene without any intention of stopping it.

He is just acting as an elder of the Nascent Soul stage to protect these Jindan stage cultivators, but he is not their babysitter.

These people want to die, and no one can stop them.

"You really want the spirit stones over your life!"

Wanyan Fu caught a glimpse of the multiple beams of light escaping away and sneered.

“Fellow Daoist Wanyan is wrong,” Wei Zhong shook his head and said, “Most of those who left did not have a strong background, and I don’t know how much effort they spent on cultivating to the Jindan stage.

"But now I am limited by the resources for forming a pill, and my progress is slow. If I don't take this opportunity to try my best, I will never have the chance to advance in my life."

Xun Yangzi nodded:

"The Wang family's promise is indeed a great temptation for ordinary Jindan cultivators. If you are lucky, you may be able to earn all the resources needed to reach the late Jindan stage."

"What if we're unlucky?" Cheng Ruirui interrupted.

"That means death of course!"

As they were talking, several more people left the Xingyun Peak. Many of them even came from the Shadow Moon Sect or the Yunji Chamber of Commerce.

"Even a Jindan from a powerful force cannot help but be tempted by these words!"

Looking at the Miaoli cedar above his head, Wei Zhong saw that the other party frowned deeply. Following his line of sight, Wei Zhong discovered that Wang Qingyun and Song Linfang had fallen into a disadvantage.

Even with Wei Zhong's Jindan consciousness, he could detect that the two were screaming in agony under the attack of the mysterious monk.

Wang Qingyun's golden body did not have much physical advantage under the attack of the mysterious monk. His defense was broken by just a few moves. After fighting for so long, he had lost the ability to defend himself.

"The Wang family's "Body Forging Technique" is not as powerful as imagined! Or is it that Wang Qingyun has just been promoted to the fourth level and is not familiar with the Nascent Soul fighting method?"

Looking back at Wang Yonghong, who was shining with golden light and suppressing the fourth-level demon bird, there seemed to be a huge gap between the two.

"What kind of skills did Senior Song practice to be able to defeat this mysterious cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul?"

Xun Yangzi was also greatly surprised when he saw it.

Wanyan Fu laughed and looked at Wei Zhong:

"I'll have to ask Fellow Daoist Wei about this."

The other two also turned their attention over.

Wei Zhong sighed:
“Senior Song cultivated the Zhigang Palace’s inheritance of the ‘Forging Gang Method’, which is a rare method of body refining that requires the assistance of spiritual cultivation.

"Those who practice this method are considered to be practicing both the Dharma and the body, and their strength is slightly stronger than those of the same level."

What Wei Zhong said were all information circulated among all major forces, and did not involve the specific methods in "Tempering Gang Method".

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei practiced this method, no wonder he was able to defeat Fellow Daoist Xun Yangzi."

This statement immediately made Xun Yangzi suddenly realize:
"No wonder, no wonder!"

Wei Zhong shook his head:

"This method is at best a fine inheritance, and it is still not as advanced as the Wang family's "Body Forging Technique". Senior Song is in better condition than the Wang family's Patriarch, probably just because of his experience in fighting."

Wei Zhong looked towards the place where the fight was taking place and discovered that Song Linfang was very flexible in dealing with the enemy's attacks. She only relied on her internal energy to resist and would run away as soon as she was touched, never engaging head-on.

Like a slippery loach, it moved between the two of them.

But the other patriarch of the Wang family was different. It seemed that most of his abilities lay in his golden body.

He had to fight head-on against the attacks, even if he occasionally used magic tools to deal with them. After fighting with that mid-Nascent Soul cultivator for so long, he was bound to get injured. His condition was getting weaker and weaker.

'These two are going to lose!'

If it could hold on for a moment, Wang Yonghong and others would be able to kill the demon bird, break out of the formation, and the situation would be reversed in an instant.

But now these two people can no longer do it.

Miaoli Shan seemed to have heard something, and said to the people below:
"I'm going to help you. You guys find a place and protect yourselves."

After leaving these words, he flew into the battlefield and restored the balance of the situation.

"go!"

Without the protection of the Nascent Soul cultivators, Xingyun Peak became the most dangerous place.

There are two Nascent Soul battlefields not far away, which are extremely dangerous.

Wei Zhong and the other three held their magic weapons and vigilantly headed in a direction far away from Nebula Peak.

There were frequent shouts and cries of killing on the road, and the fight almost spread to the entire Wang family.

"careful!"

The black Xuanming sword in Wei Zhong's hand shot out and knocked down an invisible thin needle magic weapon.

Then it entered a house, and a scream suddenly came out from inside.

Wanyan Fu waved his sleeves to lift up the roof and found a cultivator stabbed on the stone slab on the ground by Wei Zhong's Xuanming Sword, dying.

Wei Zhong stepped forward, drew out his magic sword, cut off his head, and then took away the three storage bags on his body.

"This person seems to be a guest visiting the Wang family?" Cheng Ruirui said, and the three of them nodded.

"It seems that the Wang family is no longer just about the evil cultivators' attacks. The visiting guests have also become a fuel for the turmoil in the Wang family."

The reward promised by Wang Yonghong is indeed tempting, but how can the evil cultivator be so easy to kill?
Instead of looking for the trace of the evil cultivator, it is better to secretly attack his fellow practitioners and earn spirit stones.

Wei Zhong threw out the storage bag, wanting to share it with several others.

But Xun Yangzi returned the storage bag:
"This man was killed by Fellow Daoist Wei. I didn't even use my sword or knife. I cannot accept this spiritual object."

Wei Zhong did not refuse. As the other party was a cultivator from the Puyang family and was wealthy, he might not be interested in the mere gifts of this casual cultivator.

After hearing Xun Yangzi's generous words, Wanyan Fu hesitated with the storage bag in his hand, but finally returned the storage bag under Cheng Ruirui's gaze.

Wei Zhong chuckled and accepted it:

"Fellow Daoist Wanyan Fu, your reminder is a credit. Since you don't want the spiritual objects in the storage bag, why not use it to offset part of your debt?"

Wei Zhong took a quick look at the storage bag and found that the spiritual objects in it were worth more than ten thousand spirit stones.

As a storage bag for a Jindan cultivator, it would naturally not be too shabby.

Wanyan Fu's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wei!"

"Now, there are evil cultivators and 'robbery cultivators' mixed inside the Wang family, and there are few safe places. Where should we go?" Xun Yangzi said.

The people present were at most in the early stage of Jindan, and some were also burdened by the foundation-building stage. They were not worth mentioning in this turbulent Wang family.

After hearing what Yu Xunyangzi said, the other three people, including Wei Zhong, had no better solution.

"Let's walk around first. It would be best if we could find a defensive formation used by Wang's disciples to defend against the enemy. Otherwise, it doesn't matter where we are in the Wang's family."

Wei Zhong nodded, agreeing with Wanyan Fu's remarks.

So the four of them bypassed the place where the Nascent Soul battle was taking place, and they took action from time to time along the way, killing the enemies or evil cultivators and rescuing the people of the Wang family.

The team of four continued to expand and gradually became more than a dozen people, including Wei Zhong's acquaintance Wang Bofeng.

He was originally being chased by the robbers, but luckily he was rescued by Wei Zhong and others, and he was very grateful.

“The Songlong Palace, which is not far from here, is protected by a formation. I, your uncle, am on duty here.

"We can go here and use formations to resist the enemy."

"Wang Lihua," Wei Zhong thought of this third-level formation master.

"Maybe we can get in touch with him?"

Wang Bofeng shook his head:
"The Wang family is in chaos right now. Several of the sword signals I sent out failed to reach the destination. They were destroyed by unknown attacks halfway. I have not been able to contact my uncle yet.

"Not only that, there is no news about Susu either."

As he spoke, there was a hint of worry on his face about the safety of his fellow Taoist.

"This……"

Upon hearing that he failed to contact the two, Xun Yangzi hesitated.

“Let’s go and take a look first. Even if the Songlong Palace is captured, with our strength, escaping will not be a problem.

"There can't be a Nascent Soul cultivator guarding it, right?"

Wanyan Fu glanced at Wang Bofeng and said so.

The latter folded his hands:
“Don’t worry, senior. Songlong Hall is just a place for the old monks in the clan to relax and maintain their health. It is not a core place.

"The reason why there is a formation for protection is because some formation masters in the clan like to stay here and set up a formation for it in their spare time."

"That's great. Let's go and take a look first."

Wei Zhong spoke, and his entourage had no objection, and immediately a team of more than a dozen people headed towards the Songlong Hall.

……

In the sky above, two of the three Nascent Soul battlefields were caught in fierce fighting.

Except for the place where Wang Yonghong was, which was in a slightly better condition, the other two places were in great danger.

Although the Wang couple had the support of Miaoli Shan, it was still not enough to make up for the gap between them and the cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

Wang Qingyun's injuries became more serious as the battle went on, and it seemed that his strong physical recovery ability had completely lost its effect here.

Miaoli Shan tapped the pipe in his hand, and a cloud of smoke shot out, forming a two-foot-long shield to block the enemy's attack, and then pulled the two men back.

He did not dare to confront this cultivator, who he did not know whether he was a demon cultivator or a demon clan cultivator, head-on, and could only fight him with the help of the magic weapons or spiritual methods in his hands.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Miao!"

Miaoli Shan shook his head slightly and turned to look at the black-robed monk not far away.

The other party looked at the two of them leisurely, with no intention of attacking forcefully.

"You are much better than these two, but unfortunately you are still not as good as me."

His words fully reveal the attitude of an elder.

"Daoyou is indeed very powerful, but are you a fellow demon cultivator from Fengzhou?"

The latter chuckled:
"It used to be, but not now!"

Miaoli Shan was wondering what the other party said when his figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone. Even the three people's spiritual sense could not capture his trace.

"Be careful, it's that trick again!"

The Wang couple had suffered losses from this trick before, so they raised their hands and slapped out a golden talisman, and a layer of golden protective shield immediately enveloped the three of them.

There was a cracking sound above his head, and Miaoli Shan's face changed drastically. He held his pipe upright above the three people, and in the blink of an eye he felt a huge force.

The three of them were unable to maintain their balance and were knocked to the ground.

Miaoli Shan spat out a mouthful of blood. As a spiritual practitioner, his physique was far inferior to that of Wang Qingyun, who practiced physical cultivation, and Song Linfang, who practiced both magic and body.

Seeing that the black-robed monk was about to attack again, Miaolishan no longer hesitated and pointed at the pipe in his hand.

A steady stream of white smoke came out of it, covering an area of ​​five miles in radius. As if realizing that the smoke was too loose, Miaoli Shan made a series of hand gestures, and the white smoke shrank, eventually radiating only two miles around.

"The treasure of the barrier?"

As a special figure in the Yunji Chamber of Commerce, it is not surprising for Miaoli Shan to have such a magical weapon in his hands.

"The enemy's cultivation is too high, and my barrier treasure can't last long..."

After explaining, Miaoli Shan asked Wang Qingyun again:
"I wonder if Fellow Daoist Wang understands why so many demons and monsters attack the Wang family?"

Wang Qingyun shook his head:
"The only thing I can think of is the fourth-level demon bird captured by my Wang family, but it doesn't seem to be enough to cause such turmoil.

"Not to mention that there are so many demon cultivators involved. Ying Xian's rebellion is also very strange..."

Wang Qingyun frowned.

"Regardless of demon cultivators, is there anything in the Wang family that demon cultivators are interested in?"

Miaoli Shan continued to ask.

The latter frowned even deeper:

"There is nothing that the demon cultivators are interested in, but there is one thing that seems to..."

Before he could finish his words, smoke billowed in front of the three people. Two bone claws emerged from it, and a sinister voice came:

"Found you!"

"So fast."

The three of them had to stop talking and each used their own magic to resist, and then, under the guidance of Miaoli Shan, escaped to another part of the barrier.
