Chapter 373: Chapter 290: The 5 Demon Elder, the Terror of Late Stage Golden Core!
"Senior Brother, it’s now!"
Gu Yuan’s voice rapidly echoed above the Cloud Platform.
As he pushed Master Xuan Guang behind him, he had secretly transmitted a message for him to prepare.
Master Xuan Guang did not understand at the time, but at this moment, seeing Gu Yuan’s Divine Thunder smash Master Black Flame’s spine shield and scatter his Fire Dragon Body, he instantly understood Gu Yuan’s intention.
"Celestial Fire Imperial Arrow Seal!"
He took a deep breath, his Golden Core spun swiftly within his body, and countless mana surged into a dazzling red Dharma Seal with arrow patterns.
"Whoosh!"
He then spat out, and a red arrow shadow shot out from his mouth, carrying a magnificent momentum as it fiercely attacked Master Black Flame.
This seal is also one of the Superior Dharma Seals of the Daoist School, nurturing Celestial Fire and Red Mist, concealed within the abdomen, and once spat out, it’s like an imperial decree from the celestial vault, capable of delivering a lethal blow.
At this moment, Master Black Flame had reverted to human form, his Golden Seal dim, at his weakest.
"Dharma Seal!"
Having his shield shattered by Gu Yuan and reverting to human form, Master Black Flame’s expression was extremely grim. But now, he couldn’t afford to think, and the remaining mana surged rapidly into his Dantian.
In an instant, countless demon clouds surged, forming a vast black net in front of him, obscuring the sky and seemingly able to enclose all things and methods.
Gu Yuan had seen the Witch of Qingyang Temple use this seal in the White Bone Secret Realm before, and its power was extraordinary. At this moment, used by Master Black Flame, it contained even more profound mystery.
But Master Xuan Guang merely gave another light shout: "Imperial!"
In his palm, at some unknown time, appeared a red Token.
The Token was etched with flowing fire patterns, mysterious and complex, seemingly possessing a unique Dao Charm.
As soon as this decree was out, the Celestial Fire Imperial Arrow Seal suddenly grew stronger, as if bestowed with mighty power, truly having the feeling of an imperial decree from the celestial vault. It flashed swiftly and directly pierced through the net of spiritual light of the Dharma Seal, aiming at the space between Master Black Flame’s eyebrows.
Master Black Flame was greatly alarmed in his heart, unable to think further. A Dharma Seal in his Dantian spun rapidly, narrowly helping him avoid the area between his eyebrows.
But a large hole was pierced through his left shoulder and chest, the flesh turning to carbon in an instant, charred and black.
Not only that, but the red firelight, pervasive and indefatigable, sought desperately to flood into his viscera through Master Black Flame’s wound, wanting to burn him to ash.
"Black Flame, taste the power of my Celestial Fire as well!"
Upon seeing this, Master Xuan Guang immediately shouted.
It seemed he wanted to vent all the anger accumulated from being oppressed earlier.
Having cultivated for many years and being an Artifact Refining Master, he was far from without means, yet the World-Burning Demon Flame was too dominant, restraining all his methods, putting him at the brink of life and death in an instant, leaving him powerless to use his various techniques.
At this moment, having gained the upper hand, he showed no mercy.
"Crimson Fire Soul-Slaying Mirror!"
He roared, and a red Treasure Mirror rose up, illuminating an invisible Crimson Fire Spirit in an instant, striking at Master Black Flame.
Already weakened and with the Celestial Fire Imperial Arrow Seal invading his body, Master Black Flame’s face turned extremely grim upon seeing the Crimson Fire Spirit.
He suddenly turned his head, not looking at Master Xuan Guang but at Gu Yuan instead.
"Xuan Guang, I have not lost to you!"
He howled, then stopped hesitating and prepared to activate the Blood Demon Heaven Escape Seal.
Things had reached a point of no return.
Without the Fire Dragon Body, he could hardly deal with Xuan Guang alone, let alone Gu Yuan, who was meditating to restore his mana.
This young man’s methods were extraordinary, capable of battling beyond his level, truly terrifying!
At this moment, with his opponent’s mana exhausted, he still had a chance to escape. If he delayed even a moment longer, his life might remain here.
"Buzz!"
The blood-colored Celestial Demon Heaven-Escaping Seal trembled slightly, on the verge of activation.
But just then, a pair of large hands suddenly pressed down on Master Black Flame’s shoulders, suppressing his turbulent mana.
"Senior Brother Wu Mo?!"
Master Black Flame was suddenly startled, turning his head, then immediately displayed a respectful demeanor.
Standing there was a young man in a white robe, his chest half-exposed, seemingly free-spirited, who had appeared silently behind Master Black Flame.
His eyes were black and white, exuding a childlike innocence, but Gu Yuan and Master Xuan Guang felt as if they were facing a great threat, as if some formidable beast was eyeing them.
"Five Demon Old Ghosts?!"
Master Xuan Guang’s previously relaxed mind immediately tensed up, even more so than before.
The young man behind Master Black Flame was none other than Leng Hanfeng, this generation’s Golden Core Chief of the Qingyang Temple, renowned as the Five Demon Old Ghosts!
Although he appeared youthful and his eyes innocent, he was genuinely a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, having practiced for over seven hundred years!
The most crucial question was, why was this person here?
"Black Flame, you arranged for a late-stage Golden Core cultivator in the array early on? Are you intending to declare war on Cyan Peak Daoist School?"
Master Xuan Guang thought rapidly, then scolded Master Black Flame.
A late-stage Golden Core cultivator is vastly different from early or mid-stage ones, capable of truly transforming into anomalies and stirring the profound mysteries of the True Scripture. To call them highly advanced is no exaggeration.
Even with the five Golden Core cultivators of Cyan Peak Daoist School gathered, they would still not be a match for this person!
The only course of action now was to use the power of the Daoist School to pressure him!
"I am here not by Black Flame’s planning."
"I was simply idle and decided to see the means of your sect’s Golden Core cultivators."
"I never expected to find a rare gem!"
Leng Hanfeng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze slightly raised, looking at Gu Yuan, eyes filled with curiosity.
