426 The Start of the Chaotic Battle
“Kill them!”
At the same time, Murong Fu’s voice rang out, hundreds of mortal realm warriors jumped up and faced Zhao Gao and the thousands of cultivators. The entire Clearwater Pavilion began to be filled with fights.
...As for the ten Dao Foundation cultivators, they didn’t make a move. Instead, they quickly moved in front of Murong Fu. They were obviously setting up a formation!
“Murong Fu, die!” at this moment, the first elder had already moved and jumped up.
Before he finished his words, countless spiritual energy emerged from the first elder’s body. The sharp blade was suddenly raised high by the first elder and suddenly slashed at Murong Fu.
Two Dao Foundation Stage cultivators jumped out from the group blocking Murong Fu!
The two Dao Foundation cultivators held their swords and directly blocked the first elder’s fierce blade.
The sound of collision rang out, and sparks flew in all directions.
The first elder’s attack was blocked and he fell into a melee. He was surrounded by two Dao Foundation cultivators and it was difficult for him to resist.
“I’ll help you!” the fifth elder also made his move.
At the same time, he swung his sword and killed a holy guard of the sword sect in the mortal realm, forcing the other holy guards to retreat.
He jumped up and joined the battle in the air, trying to help the first elder resist the two holy guards of the sword sect who were in the earth realm.
However, two more holy guards of the sword sect jumped out from Murong Fu’s side and instantly joined the battle in the air, fighting with the fifth elder.
This caused the fifth elder and first elder to be in a difficult situation.
The Clearwater Palace fell into chaos.
Spiritual energy shot out of the hall, and a cold light flashed.
Fresh blood spurted out continuously, dying the ground red.
Although Zhao Gao had brought many cultivators, they were all at the first level of the mortal realm, which was far inferior to Murong Fu’s holy guards.
If it wasn’t for the huge difference in numbers and the limited area of the palace, the sword sect’s holy guards would have suffered almost no damage.
However, even though there were many restrictions, the rogue cultivators that Zhao Gao had brought with him could temporarily suppress the sword sect’s holy guards with their numbers. However, they could only suppress them, not kill them.
On the other hand, the holy guards of the sword sect, who did not have many people, could still kill their enemies continuously even if they were restricted.
Most of the fresh blood that had dyed the entire Clearwater Palace red had come from the cultivators that Zhao Gao had brought with him.
Only Zhao Gao had killed dozens of the sword sect’s holy guards.
Zhao Gao’s strength quickly attracted the attention of the other sword sect’s holy guards, and they focused most of their attacks on Zhao Gao, making him unable to split up.
He had been severely injured earlier, so he had been unable to cast any powerful spell techniques!
The battle at the Clearwater Palace quickly reached a stalemate.
The cultivators who tried to overthrow Murong Fu were unable to kill the holy guards of the sword sect, and the holy guards were also unable to kill Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao, who was surrounded, was unable to escape, causing the fighting in the palace to become more intense, and the blood flow gradually decreased.
The first elder and the fifth elder were fighting with two cultivators of the earth realm respectively. Their cultivation was stronger than the holy guards of the sword sect, but it was still difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. The gap had been pulled to a draw.
After an intense battle, some sort of balance seemed to have been achieved.
However, this balance was destined to be short-lived.
This was because all the tricks that had been used to incite the rebellion had been used, but Murong Fu was still coldly watching from the side. The six holy guards of the sword sect in front of him had not made a move.
Zhao Gao, the first elder, and the fifth elder had planned everything, but in the end, they couldn’t win against Murong Fu, who had a deep foundation.
The battle with Murong Fu in the main hall gradually reached a stagnant. He did not let the six holy guards of the sword sect in front of him attack. Instead, he turned his attention to Gu Mingzhou and the Island Master of Floating Jade Island.
These two were the existences that Murong Fu was most afraid of!
Powerful cultivators could change the outcome of the entire battlefield.
In a corner of the Clearwater Palace, Gu Mingzhou’s brows were tightly furrowed. Long before the battle began, he had already retreated to the side. While observing the situation, he also looked at the Floating Jade Island Master.
Regardless of whether Zhao Gao’s words were true or not, Gu Mingzhou would definitely stand on Zhao Gao’s side at this time.
However, Floating Jade Island Master was different.
Although the relationship between the Island Master of Floating Jade and Gu Mingzhou was closer, the relationship between the Island Master of Floating Jade and Zhao Gao was not good.
In fact, today was the first time they had met, so the possibility of him helping was not high.
If the fifth elder Murong Yan were to speak up, the chances of the Floating Jade Island Master helping out would increase significantly.
However, as Floating Jade Island Master had said earlier, he was completely unaware of what had happened and might choose to stand by and do nothing.
There was also another possibility. Murong Fu might not hesitate to attack Zhao Gao’s side when the final winner was Murong Fu.
If Zhao Gao won in the end and Floating Jade Island Master did not make a move, it would not affect the cooperation between the two parties. At most, after The Trap absorbed a hundred thousand Floating Jade rogue cultivators, the authority of the Floating Jade Island Master would be weakened.
On the contrary, if the final winner was Murong Fu. Zhao Gao, the first elder, the fifth elder, and the others would all be executed by Murong Fu. If Floating Jade Island Master had not stepped in to help, the hundred thousand rogue cultivators would have returned to the path of cannon fodder.
If they chose to help Murong Fu suppress the rebellion, Murong Fu might discuss with Zhao State and Zhou Dynasty to directly reward the Floating Jade Island Master with land or merge with the Heavenly Sword Sect!
Therefore, Floating Jade Island Master, who had retreated to the corner, was not unwilling to make a move. Instead, he was observing the battle.
Gu Mingzhou’s decision only represented himself.
However, the decision of the Floating Jade Island Master would affect the life and death of the hundred thousand rogue cultivators behind him. He had to be careful!
Therefore, Gu Mingzhou did not make a move. Instead, he set his eyes on the Island Master of Floating Jade Island, just in case!
Gu Mingzhou was also in the earth realm, so he knew how terrifying a fourth-rank earth realm cultivator could be.
He regretted bringing Floating Jade Island Master to the Heavenly Sword Sect, but he could do nothing to change that.
If Zhao Gao had informed them of this matter in advance, the situation would not have turned out like this, and the Floating Jade Island Master would not have appeared.
Murong Fu saw this point, so he didn’t let the remaining holy guards of the sword sect join the battle.
Of course, leaving behind the sword sect’s holy guards was not purely for protection. It was to tilt the balance of victory and, in turn, affect the judgment of the Floating Jade Island Master. This was the only way he could get the Island Master of Floating Jade Island to come to his side.
Just as Gu Mingzhou had expected, Murong Fu did not know his cultivation level, so he was very afraid of him and wanted to use the Floating Jade Island Master to hold him back.
If he was really caught, Zhao Gao, the first elder, and the fifth elder would not be able to shake Murong Fu, who had a deep foundation!
The treason will naturally fail!
Gu Mingzhou’s body glowed as he released the spiritual energy in his body.
He was waiting for the Floating Jade Island Master to agree. He wanted to eliminate the remaining sword sect holy guards around Murong Fu in the shortest time possible.
Only in this way could the plan succeed!
“You can promise that you won’t affect my quelling of the rebellion. When I control the whole world, I’ll be able to get you a bigger piece of land, and you’ll also be able to hold your own power without being under anyone’s jurisdiction!” Murong Fu looked at the Floating Jade Island Master and said.
“Floating Jade Island Master, you must not believe him. His words have no credibility at all!” before Murong Fu could finish his words, the first elder who was fighting against the holy guards of the sword sect shouted loudly.
