Chapter 684: Chapter 681: Encountering the Red Beauty Sect
Meanwhile, in Yunshui City, five figures appeared in the sky.
The one in the lead was the Alliance Leader of the Heavenly Sword Alliance, accompanied by four Supreme Elders from the Alliance. All of them were at the Supreme Realm.
For some reason, Supreme figures from the Heavenly Sword Academy, like Ancestor Xuanqing, had not appeared this time.
"Heh... Since the Heavenly Sword Academy isn’t making a move, I will keep my promise. Even if I breach Yunshui City, I won’t touch the Academy. But as for the other Noble Families and Sects, don’t blame me for being merciless."
The Celestial Corpse Ancestor spoke coldly.
The Heavenly Sword Alliance Leader’s expression darkened as he retorted, "You speak too soon. We’ll see who’s defeated in the end."
"Then there’s nothing left to say! My children, follow me and slaughter your way into Yunshui City!"
With a great roar from the Celestial Corpse Ancestor, over a million living corpses surged forward like a tide, swarming over the mountains and plains as they charged toward Yunshui City.
Soon, the Cultivators of Yunshui City were locked in a bloody battle with the Celestial Corpse Sect’s Corpse Generals, Corpse Kings, Corpse Saints, and countless Puppets.
Wherever the disciples of the Celestial Corpse Sect passed, all living people were either killed or turned into living corpses.
The previous attack had been nowhere near this scale.
This time, the Celestial Corpse Sect was conducting a sweeping advance, slaughtering all the Small Sects on the mountains outside Yunshui City and refining the Human Cultivators into Corpse Puppets.
Jiang Jichen’s figure drifted ethereally through the wilderness.
Everywhere he passed, he could see mountains crawling with Corpse Generals, Corpse Kings, and even Corpse Saints, leading their Corpse Puppets to wipe out the Sects on each summit.
On a mountain summit about a hundred li from Yunshui City, Jiang Jichen was suddenly struck by a sense of familiarity.
He couldn’t help but stop, gracefully concealing himself within an ancient tree.
This particular summit had already been completely surrounded by Corpse Generals and Corpse Kings leading their Corpse Puppets.
To Jiang Jichen’s surprise, there were even three Tier One Corpse Saints among them.
Jiang Jichen was secretly amazed that such a small peak would warrant such a powerful force.
Moreover, these Corpse Cultivators seemed to have looks of apprehension on their faces.
With a flash, Jiang Jichen appeared silently on the mountaintop.
He saw a mountain gate, and within it, a Small Sect.
The Red Beauty Sect!
He saw the three large words written above the gate.
In an instant, Jiang Jichen understood the source of his familiar feeling.
’The Red Beauty Sect... Is this the Sect Tang Ni wanted to establish?’
She had told him back then that she would establish the Red Beauty Sect, and that he himself would be its Sect Leader.
Tang Ni had even given him a Map Jade Scroll, and the location marked on it was this very summit.
’To think I’d stumble upon it by chance.’
At that moment, the Red Beauty Sect was completely surrounded. Three Tier One Corpse Saints stood at the forefront, leading the charge. One of them spoke with a cold sneer, "Hehehe... Listen up, little ladies of the Red Beauty Sect. Surrender obediently and become this Saint’s Corpse Slaves, and I might spare your lives."
"Otherwise, I’ll refine your entire Sect into Corpse Puppets!"
As soon as the Tier One Corpse Saint’s voice faded, the gates of the Red Beauty Sect swung open, and a group of women appeared gracefully.
In the lead was a stunningly beautiful woman.
Beside her stood a lovely, doe-eyed girl, both beautiful and cute.
These two were, of course, Tang Ni and Xia Qing.
Xia Qing was as pure and beautiful as ever!
Behind the two of them was a group of gorgeous young women.
Tang Ni had actually reached the Saint First Realm, and Xia Qing had reached the Nascent Soul Extreme Realm, only a single step away from the Holy Dao.
Evidently, the Ancient Inheritance they had obtained back then was truly extraordinary, containing vast Cultivation Resources.
Thus, over the years, Tang Ni had led the women in arduous, unceasing cultivation on this summit, which was how they had achieved their current success.
The girls behind them had also reached levels ranging from the Spirit Infant Perfection Realm to the Mid-stage Nascent Soul.
For them, who had access to only ordinary resources, this was a remarkable achievement.
Hearing the Corpse Saint’s words, Tang Ni had yet to speak when the more direct Xia Qing stepped forward and said, "Hmph! You inhuman monsters! Our Red Beauty Sect sisters slaughtered the last batch of living corpses. Now another batch has come to throw their lives away."
"Hehe... This little girl has spirit. This Saint wants her as my Corpse Slave!"
one of the Corpse Saints responded sinisterly.
"The Red Beauty Sect would rather die fighting than surrender! Stop your wishful thinking!"
Tang Ni declared, her voice cold and alluring.
"If that’s how it is, then you can all become this Saint’s Corpse Puppets! Kill them!"
The third Corpse Saint was hot-tempered and charged forward immediately.
The faces of Tang Ni, Xia Qing, and the other women of the Red Beauty Sect paled, their expressions turning grim.
"Shameless!"
Tang Ni flew into a rage, charging out to meet the attack without a hint of retreat.
"This woman seems to have some skill. She’s not to be underestimated. Let’s take her down together!"
the other Corpse Saint said, attacking Tang Ni from the flank.
"Alright then, since you two like to play together, this Saint won’t get in your way. The big-eyed little lady is mine! As for the rest of the women, it’s every man for himself!"
the third Corpse Saint declared.
"Haha... Then let’s go! We’ll refine them into Corpse Puppets!"
"Hehehe... Whoever catches one gets to keep her! Charge!"
...
A mob of Corpse Generals and Corpse Kings roared as they charged forward, wild with excitement.
The Red Beauty Sect had fewer than a hundred female disciples.
Facing so many Corpse Generals, Corpse Kings, and Corpse Saints, they were no match at all. Ultimately, death seemed inevitable.
"Do you... do you have any idea who our Sect Leader is? If you dare touch us, you’ll live to regret it!"
At that moment, a Red Beauty Sect disciple, besieged by a group of living corpses and already exhausted, screamed in terror as she was about to fall into their hands.
"Who cares who he is? Our Celestial Corpse Sect reigns supreme over the Southern Continent! Who can possibly stand against us?"
"We wipe out anyone who dares to resist! Little lady, stop struggling and just give in to us!"
The group of living corpses laughed, their excitement turning into a frenzy.
"Our Sect Leader is Jiang Jichen, the Sect Leader of the Luochen Sect, the third great power of the Southern Continent! If you dare to mess with us, our Sect Leader will not spare you!"
the desperate Red Beauty Sect disciple cried out.
