Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 573 Collusion Between Insiders and Outsiders

Bai Yang acted too quickly and ruthlessly. The close-combat fire treasures that the disciples were originally wary of did not appear. Instead, it was the telekinetic weapons that made the difference.

Suddenly, everyone's plans were disrupted.

The materials used in 【Heaven and Earth】 were originally the finest from the Blood Luo Continent.

After being refined by Bai Yang, its hardness is considered top-notch among "pseudo-heavy treasures".

He then had a sudden inspiration and added cutting and sharpness-type law runes to the edges of this blunt weapon.

This makes the destructive power of this thing far more than it appears.

With its current soul amplitude of almost 50, the telekinetic weapon's flight speed is so fast that dealing with a group of King-level Immortals is a piece of cake.

Before Dui He and the other three could even see what was happening, the seventeen disciples, who were filled with murderous intent, had already fallen to the ground with broken arms and legs.

Some people were even attacked on the head, with their entire skull punched through by the "Heaven and Earth" attack, creating a horrifying hole.

Even though most of them were "immortal", Bai Yang deliberately tore off their severed limbs and threw them far away.

For the time being, they dared not give up this part of the divine power to forcibly restore their physical form.

Bai Yang had no patience to question their purpose, and grabbed the burly man with his claws, pulling him in front of him.

Using the combined techniques of 【Dawn Nightmare】 and the "Myriad Hearts Soul Control Secret Method", the soul search began immediately.

Faced with such a vast difference in strength, the burly man's eyes rolled back in agony, practically bulging out of their sockets, yet he was utterly powerless to resist.

In just a moment, Bai Yang understood what was going on.

This was a rebellion initiated by a group of Venerable Ganyan's disciples!

At least the organizer on the surface was that Venerable Fuhai.

Bai Yang sneered inwardly. This matter was definitely involving outsiders, and the purpose was not pure!

Five formal disciples at the level of Cosmic Venerables, and one-third of the nominal disciples, dare to betray a Cosmic Overlord?

Who gave them the courage?

These guys in front of me are just cannon fodder who have been incited; they have no idea what's going on. Searching their souls would be a waste of time.

Duihe and the others were completely baffled as all seventeen traitors vanished before their very eyes.

Bai Yang, without time to explain, said to them:

"Stay put and don't move. Arm yourselves."

After that, apart from my master and I coming in person, we allowed everyone else to approach.

Without waiting for their reply, he teleported away.

Meanwhile, throughout the entire cave space.

All the registered disciples simultaneously received a message on their personal computers.

"I am the thirty-sixth formal disciple, Aifilo."

The sect was in turmoil, with a large number of disciples betraying them.

If any fellow disciples are suddenly attacked by other disciples for no apparent reason, they can immediately ask me for help!

Most of the traitorous disciples' faces changed color instantly, completely bewildered as to what was happening!

"Why! Didn't we already send a bunch of the weakest guys to delay that Effie?"

"How could he send such a message?! The entire local area network on Walpole must have been blocked and taken over by our people!"

Those disciples who were suddenly ambushed and felt bewildered were overjoyed!

They all sent out distress messages to Bai Yang, and their quantum computer communications seemed to return to normal immediately!

While casually cracking the traitor's access control, Xing Shou also drew a map in Bai Yang's mind with the distress call information to help him choose a route.

Those disciples who betrayed the sect were a minority; they only gained the upper hand by launching a sneak attack.

In every battlefield here, as soon as Bai Yang teleported in, a black flame immediately shot towards the opposite side!

No matter how many kings or immortals are granted titles, how can they withstand this?

All of them suffered a sudden loss of divine power and were easily subdued by Bai Yang before being thrown into the Dragon Stele.

In just one minute, he rushed to more than a dozen local battlefields and saved most of his disciples.

"The remaining traitors among the nominal disciples are all cosmic venerables."

They can interfere with teleportation to some extent, so we have to get there from a distance.

Xing Shou checked the disciple roster and offered suggestions.

Bai Yang nodded slightly. The [Spatial Lockdown] of the Immortal King was a joke to him, but it was a different story for the Universe Venerable.

In the ensuing battle, rapid movement will no longer be possible.

The group wasn't large, so he didn't act rashly.

He flew through the cave, while sending out a sliver of his mind to communicate.

"Senior Brother Xiao Zhou, how's the situation on your end?"

"Effie!? How did you manage to contact me?!"

"The matter is urgent, there's no time to explain."

Are you and your master alright? I've come to help you.

"No, please! The cave space is isolated from our level; you can't get through."

You just need to lead your disciples to protect yourselves!

"Our master was ambushed and injured by those beasts, but we can hold on for now."

"I don't even consider those five mere Universe Venerables a threat."

How is Master doing?

On the other side of the quantum computer, Venerable Xiao Zhou and his two disciples were relying on a metal shield-like defensive treasure to protect Venerable Gan Yan, whose divine power had been greatly diminished.

On the opposite side, Venerable Fuhai led four people, each wielding an offensive treasure that Venerable Xiaozhou had never seen before, and they relentlessly bombarded them.

When Venerable Xiao Zhou heard Bai Yang utter such arrogant words, he was slightly taken aback amidst his busy schedule.

Has Effie gone mad?

Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Yang urged him a few more times.

Venerable Xiao Zhou had no choice but to reply:

"Master was seriously injured. Those traitors attacked her from behind, and she didn't have time to use her treasure."

"What about the other formal disciples? Just you few?"

Venerable Xiao Zhou, his face full of bitterness, said:

"They were all transferred away by that traitor under the pretext of doing business!"

They even temporarily borrowed several of their master's most treasured items.

Bai Yang understood that it was probably because Venerable Gan Yan, who was skilled in weapon crafting, was indeed less adept at combat than ordinary universe overlords.

"Are the formal disciples unable to teleport back from the divine realm?"

"No, that won't work. We're currently at the hub of [Icefire Peak]."

This place is filled with the power of supreme treasures of the realm, making teleportation from the divine kingdom ineffective.

If this treasure had already been forged, that would be fine, but unfortunately it's only in its embryonic stage.

"Then I will have all the registered disciples go to the exit, activate the defenses on the gate, and temporarily isolate and seal off the entire [Ice and Fire Peak]."

I suspect these traitors have outside help and will try to send reinforcements.

"Effie, don't be impulsive!"

There are quite a few of those nominal disciples who betrayed their masters!

"It's okay, I've almost finished taking care of it."

While Bai Yang was speaking in his mind, his feet and hands never stopped moving.

He used a claw technique to easily block a sneak attack from a cosmic venerable.

His tail and two heads simultaneously unleashed three attacks on the opposite side.

Despite his astonishing divine power and life gene level, the opponent, who was clearly a mid-level universe venerable, was completely inferior in strength!

Bai Yang tore two claws at his chest and abdomen with almost no effort!

Over the years, we have analyzed secret methods and dissected secret patterns.

Now, even his casual strikes are mostly at the level of peak secret techniques.

The power of the Ten Thousand Dragons Battle Body naturally increased accordingly.

The cosmic venerable one discovered that with just those two claws, he had lost more than 20% of his divine body!

Then, even more terrifying black flames attacked him, and the combat power of this cosmic venerable instantly plummeted!

"Traitors are traitors, a bunch of cowards who dare not expose themselves."
