Chapter 573: Chapter 289: Disintegration
In the next moment.
The offensive grew fiercer.
Yi Nian Guan Shan was already furious within the array, "You scoundrel, don’t force this old man to remove your Sect Leader position of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks!"
"Elder, then don’t force me to reveal your deeds to everyone!" Bao Tiangai spoke angrily.
"You..."
Yi Nian Guan Shan was so angry he couldn’t speak.
He turned around and walked away.
"If you like defending to the death, then keep defending to the death!"
Qu Wuyi glanced at Bao Tiangai with a complex expression, hesitating, unsure whether to defend or leave.
But ultimately, he chose to leave.
"Sect Leader, for the future of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, I can only retreat."
Bao Tiangai remained silent.
He did not respond.
His gaze was solely fixed on Wusheng Three Life Gates, Di Shenhan, and others, as if ready to die.
"Hear my command, everyone in the sect. Fully support the Sect Protection Array, fend off the external enemies. If I die, then flee, escape as many as you can, and once safe, erect a nameless stone in a flourishing place of spring!"
Bao Tiangai spoke.
Some in the sect were ready to sacrifice.
While others began fleeing.
Yet ultimately, those prepared to sacrifice far outnumbered the others.
Yi Nian Guan Shan witnessed this scene, glared with frustration at internal weakness, then left the array eye towards the Grotto Heaven.
Qu Wuyi followed closely behind.
...
Watching this scene, Wen Jiu remained calm.
Only sent the Formless Demon Corpse to follow, without taking action, for the Sect Protection Array had not broken, East Spring Undying Bone could not enter.
Formless Demon Corpse would be useless now, and the state of that Magical Artifact was unknown, the Corpse Fate Technique couldn’t predict abilities beyond its shielding of Celestial Secret, so Wen Jiu decided to kill Yi Nian Guan Shan only after the array breaks.
If Yi Nian Guan Shan hides within the Grotto Heaven, the True Spirit Divine Demon Array ensures no place there would protect him. With East Spring Undying Bone’s abilities, any danger in the Grotto Heaven would be like an unguarded land.
Should Yi Nian Guan Shan hide in the True Spirit Divine Demon Array, aided by the True Spirit Divine Tree, he could easily enter and leave.
Yi Nian Guan Shan’s death was certain.
But Bao Tiangai, in this self-serving Cultivation Realm, acted with such responsibility and fearlessness, which was rare. No wonder Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks had no internal strife over the years. Generally, a long-standing powerful force is more likely undone by internal troubles rather than external foes. Yet Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks had stood for a thousand years. It seemed it might not be only due to Golden Core Power suppression.
"However, such people are destined for unfortunate ends." Wen Jiu didn’t wish to be such a person, but still admired them. Of course, regardless of admiration, Wen Jiu wouldn’t save him.
Because Bao Tiangai’s dedication was solely to Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, he never showed mercy to those dependent or Loose Cultivators.
The so-called Foundation Breaking Method surely had his sanction as Sect Leader, or it wouldn’t have continued being implemented.
Strictly speaking, he was also a self-interested person.
But he expanded his concerns to the entire sect, rather than just focusing purely on himself.
On the other side.
When Yi Nian Guan Shan and Qu Wuyi returned to the Grotto Heaven, Yi Nian Guan Shan headed straight for the True Spirit Divine Demon Array.
"In the Stone Array, Divine Sense cannot be released, the Golden Core cannot fly, making it our safest place. This old man has a External False Pill Human Puppet hidden outside Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, already heading to the West Mountain Floating Domain. As long as the message is delivered to the Blood Demon Sect remnants then to the West Mountain Floating Domain, Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks can rise again!"
Yi Nian Guan Shan consoled, and Qu Wuyi finally sighed a relief but felt uneasy thinking about his longstanding friend Bao Tiangai still defending outside, remaining silent for a long time.
Yi Nian Guan Shan spoke again, "Once we gain support from the Domain Lord’s Mansion in the West Mountain Floating Domain, your cultivation could advance further, revenge will not be late then. Rest assured, none at Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks will die in vain; once this old man is reborn, I will surely avenge them. Wusheng Three Life Gates killed many at Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, this old man will repay double!"
"If the Sect Leader could understand the Elder’s intention, that would be good." Qu Wuyi sighed, silently following Yi Nian Guan Shan.
"No worries, he will understand someday." Yi Nian Guan Shan was pleased seeing Qu Wuyi trust him.
As long as Qu Wuyi remained willing to follow, even facing a formidable True Demon in the Stone Array, or assaults from Demon Pill Demon Cultivator, he could have assistance, or use him as a sacrifice, thus ensuring his escape.
