Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 181: Fights (Last Part)

Foundation Building cultivators fought relentlessly in the sky, while Refining Qi disciples engaged in life-and-death battles on the ground. Wen Qiansun led the disciples of the Taiyi Sect, who formed the Qiankun Rotation Formation, to confront the cultivators of Green Bamboo Mountain head-on.

Flags waved, figures changed, and circular light rings emerged from the formation, protecting all the disciples of Taiyi Sect within. Zhang Hantao, the head of the Zhang family, felt uneasy when he saw Taiyi Sect confronting Green Bamboo Mountain head-on. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't escape the formation, he might have fled the battle already. But now, seeing the unknown defensive formation that seemed quite formidable, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Under Wen Qiansun's command, the disciples of Taiyi Sect split into two groups. Yang Xueyi led one group to form the outer circle, continuously revolving around the inner circle, while Zhang Hantao led another group to form the inner circle, revolving in the opposite direction. As the two circles rotated in different directions, the Qiankun Rotation Formation began to operate at full power. The true qi of all the disciples within the formation was drawn out and poured into the formation.

The rotating circles, like grinding stones, fiercely collided with the cultivators of Green Bamboo Mountain. The two town suppressing steles humped on the backs of sand lizard beasts started to flicker intensely, clearly under great pressure.

The disciples of Green Bamboo Mountain, protected by the light shield, also felt the power emanating from the Taiyi Sect's formation due to the intense fluctuations of the shield. The current batch of participating disciples from Green Bamboo Mountain was just a remnant of their elite force, and their strength was significantly inferior to the original elite members.

If it weren't for this makeshift version of the Four Directions Subduing Mountain Formation, Green Bamboo Mountain would probably have no chance of overpowering Liu Family and the other forces. Taiyi Sect's Qiankun Rotation Formation was a formidable killing move inherited from its prime. Even if it displayed only a fraction of its power, it would be enough to neutralize the makeshift formation of Green Bamboo Mountain.

Zhang Hantao, with his group of disciples, remained in the inner circle and continued moving. Initially, he thought the disciples in the outer circle were the main force in the battle, protecting them from harm. However, once the Qiankun Rotation Formation started to operate, he felt increasing pressure on his body, and his true qi was uncontrollably dissipating outward.

After just a short time in battle, Zhang Hantao's true qi was severely depleted, and he was on the verge of collapse. His disciples were weaker than him, and some of them were already coughing up blood and falling to the ground.

Realizing the dire situation, he tried to escape the formation, but he found that he couldn't control his body anymore. His body seemed to move on its own, running in circles, and he couldn't stop the outflow of his true qi.

Once the Qiankun Rotation Formation was activated at full power, everyone within the formation was bound by its effects and could only passively follow its movements. Wen Qiansun, who was controlling the formation, had complete control over its every change and the destiny of everyone within it. The "rotation" in the Qiankun Rotation Formation wasn't just a fancy name; it referred to the rotation of the pressure between the two groups of disciples.

Under Wen Qiansun's command, the pressure that should have been evenly distributed between the two groups was shifted entirely onto Zhang Hantao and his disciples. The outer circle, led by Yang Xueyi, directly confronted the disciples of Green Bamboo Mountain, exchanging powerful attacks.

Yang Xueyi and Green Bamboo Mountain held deep enmity and hatred, which fueled Yang Xueyi to unleash all her potential, fighting with everything she had. Apart from Yang Xueyi, the other disciples of Taiyi Sect had limited strength. Similarly, the disciples of Green Bamboo Mountain were not much stronger.

After a fierce battle, many disciples of Green Bamboo Mountain fell to the ground, with their lives hanging by a thread. However, Yang Xueyi and her group were mostly unharmed, just a bit exhausted.

On the other hand, Zhang Hantao and his group of disciples were in dire straits. Their true qi had been entirely drained and poured into the formation, and the pressure originally intended for Yang Xueyi's group was now overwhelming them. One by one, they fell to the ground, succumbing to their injuries.

Before his death, Zhang Hantao finally realized the cunning calculations of Meng Zhang. He exclaimed bitterly, "How ruthless." And then he collapsed and died. His ambition had clouded his judgment; he failed to see Meng Zhang's true intentions and understand the Base Formation technique, leading to this tragic outcome, which was of his own making.

As the inner circle suffered heavy casualties, the Qiankun Rotation Formation eventually broke apart without any external attack. Fortunately, the cultivators from Green Bamboo Mountain could not hold on any longer and took the initiative to retreat.

Meanwhile, the cultivators from the other three sects clashed with Liu Family's disciples from the flank. After a brutal battle, both sides suffered heavy losses. In the short term, it was challenging to determine the victor, but seeing Green Bamboo Mountain's disciples falter, Liu Family's disciples chose to withdraw.

Both Liu Family and Green Bamboo Mountain disciples retreated slowly, and the heavily damaged joint force had no strength left to pursue them. They could only watch as the two sects gradually entered the protection formation of Singing Sand City.

In the sky, the Foundation Building cultivators who had been battling against each other stopped simultaneously, returning to their respective formations. The fact that the disciples of Taiyi Sect could confront Green Bamboo Mountain's Four Directions Subduing Mountain Formation head-on and even triumph over it was unimaginable and terrifying.

The Foundation Building cultivators from the other three sects gazed at Meng Zhang with mixed feelings, filled with caution. Only after meeting up with the Refining Qi disciples did a few of the Foundation Building cultivators breathe a sigh of relief.

Taiyi Sect was not without losses either. The ground was littered with the bodies of their disciples, numbering at least several dozen. Taiyi Sect already had the smallest number of disciples, and now they suffered losses of more than half, making them the most heavily affected among the four sects.

Meng Zhang's face darkened as he glared with rage. How could he, as the Sect Master, not feel sad and angry at the loss of so many of his disciples? In his heart, however, he secretly admired Wen Qiansun, who had perfectly executed his intentions, eliminating the malignant tumors within the sect and purifying the ranks.

Meng Zhang looked at the Foundation Building cultivators from the other three sects, suppressing his anger, and said, "Gentlemen, my Taiyi Sect has fulfilled its promise and blocked Green Bamboo Mountain. Don't forget what you promised me."

"Rest assured, Young Sect Master Meng, we will keep our word and not go back on our promises."

"We are not people who break their word. Whatever benefits we promised will be fully granted to Taiyi Sect."
