Chapter 2691: Besieging and Capturing the Fortress (Not Available Today)

Wang Yuanwei's expression was calm. They had considerable experience, having collaborated many times against enemies before.

The old man in green robes raised his right hand. A small, shimmering green seal flew from his grasp, instantly growing to hundreds of feet tall. With a flash of green light, the huge green seal vanished.

The five Spirit Transformation cultivators each held a golden shimmering banner. The golden banners emitted astonishing heat. These were a complete set of Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures, bought by the Qian family at great cost, specifically equipped for the Spirit Transformation cultivators guarding Jinhong Valley.

The five Spirit Transformation cultivators waved the golden banners in their hands. The banner surfaces glowed brightly, releasing five streams of golden flames. The golden flames abruptly converged, transforming into five thick, golden fire pythons.

The five golden fire pythons intertwined, becoming a single golden fire dragon over a thousand feet long, which lunged towards Wang Yuanwei and her companions.

Two Spirit Transformation cultivators from the Qian family each released a giant azure owl, a mid-grade fifth-tier spiritual beast known as an Azure Wind Owl.

The two Azure Wind Owls spread their wings and flapped gently, conjuring a furious gale. Two blue tornadoes, over a thousand feet high, appeared on the ground and swept towards Wang Yuanwei and her companions.

With a flash of green light, a huge blue seal appeared out of nowhere and slammed towards Wang Yuanwei and her companions.

Nine sound waves of various colors surged forth, colliding with the huge blue seal. The blue seal swayed a few times before being sent flying backward.

The golden fire dragon collided with the dense sound waves. Its massive body instantly exploded, transforming into a sea of golden flames, yet not a single wisp of flame touched Wang Yuanwei or her companions.

Similarly, the two blue tornadoes were shattered by the dense sound waves as soon as they approached within a hundred feet of Wang Yuanwei and her companions, reverting into two Azure Wind Owls.

The spiritual light around Wang Yuanwei and her eighteen companions intensified, and the music grew heavier. Eighteen sound waves swept out, quickly merging into a single gigantic, shimmering blade of spiritual light, which shot directly towards the eight individuals led by the old man in green robes. Wherever it passed, the ground tore open, creating long, deep cracks.

The old man in green robes' face darkened. Ordinary defensive treasures could not withstand sound wave attacks.

The five Spirit Transformation cultivators quickly waved their golden banners. A stream of golden flames surged from the banner surfaces. They threw them forward and cast several spells, causing the five golden banners to successively transform into five golden fire pythons, each several hundred feet long.

The five golden fire pythons intertwined and merged into a single golden fire dragon, over a thousand feet long, which roared and lunged forward to meet the attack.

Formed by Mana!

The golden fire dragon collided with the giant blade, its body trembled, and it let out a horrifying roar. Before the first giant blade could dissipate, a second, even larger one swept in.

One giant blade after another swept in, like steel knives, hacking at the golden fire dragon. Before long, cracks appeared on the golden fire dragon's body, and it exploded, sending the five golden shimmering banners flying backward.

Dense sound waves surged forth, stirring up clouds of dust.

After a whooshing sound, thousands of hazy blue giant blades swept in, successively colliding with the sound waves. Like eggs hitting stones, they vanished instantly.

The two Azure Wind Owls swooped down from high altitude. As soon as they approached the sound waves, their bodies emitted dense blue light, covering an area of a thousand feet in radius.

The sound waves were momentarily immobilized by the blue light. However, the endless sound waves, like a torrent, easily broke through the blue light and swept past the bodies of the two Azure Wind Owls.

After two mournful bird cries, the two Azure Wind Owls were sent flying backward, landing heavily on the ground, lifeless. Their spirits had no time to escape before being shattered by the sound waves.

Witnessing this scene, the old man in green robes turned pale with shock. Just then, a tremendous explosion sounded from behind him, as three Spirit Transformation cultivators fell into an illusion and began attacking their own allies.

The eighteen Spirit Transformation cultivators specializing in sound arts, working together, not only increased their power but also significantly reduced their casting time. Quantity had transformed into quality.

The music continued ceaselessly, with the sounds of zithers, flutes, pipes, and explosions intermingling.

The old man in green robes felt dizzy and couldn't stand steadily. The environment before his eyes blurred. He found himself in the Jinxin Mountain Range, with Qian Rufeng appearing before him.

"Ancestor, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, a sharp pain shot through his internal organs, his vision went black, and he knew nothing more.

The three Spirit Transformation cultivators, caught in the illusion, completely disrupted their formation. They were then annihilated by the ceaseless sound waves.

They had never imagined they would one day encounter an attack from a group of sound cultivators. Treasures that countered sound attacks were already rare, and the Qian family wasn't wealthy enough to provide one to every individual.

Wang Yuanwei and her companions did not stop playing; they continued to perform the musical pieces.

Half an hour later, the music ceased. All Qian family cultivators within Jinhong Valley had been killed, with no survivors.

"Quickly clear the area and report to Ancestor Wang Lihe. We have secured this location." Wang Yuanwei commanded.

The clan members agreed. Some began clearing the battlefield, while others went to report to Wang Lihe.

Deep within the Jinshuo Mountain Range, deafening explosions periodically echoed, and various spiritual lights could be seen interweaving.

A long blue streak of light flew out from deep within the mountain range, ascending towards the sky.

Just then, a hearty male laughter rang out, echoing across a vast area spanning thousands of miles.

The blue streak of light slowed, revealing a pale young woman in a blue dress. Her left arm was missing, and her body was covered in wounds.

A golden streak of light swept in from behind. The young woman in the blue dress paled in shock and quickly summoned a dim, blue shield, placing it behind her to block the attack.

With a dull clang, the golden streak of light was blocked. It was, in fact, a golden shimmering flying sword.

Several more cracks appeared on the surface of the blue shield, and its spiritual light grew even dimmer.

Suddenly, a powerful gravitational force emerged from the ground, pulling both the young woman in the blue dress and the blue shield downwards.

The golden flying sword's spiritual light surged, and it slashed towards the young woman in the blue dress.

"No..."

The young woman in the blue dress let out a desperate cry as she was cut in half by the golden flying sword. Even her nascent soul couldn't escape and was annihilated.

Two streaks of light flew out from deep within the mountain range, revealing Wang Yi'er and a slender young woman in a golden dress. The young woman had delicate features and skin as white as snow.

This was Ji Yuwei. The Ji family was an affiliated cultivation family of the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect. This time, they cooperated with the Wang family to deal with the Qian family. It wasn't because the Ji family was particularly strong, but because the Wang family brought them along to share some of the risks.

The Ji family had fewer than three Void Refinement cultivators and no Integration stage cultivators. The Wang family valued the Ten Thousand Spirits Sect behind the Ji family; while the Wang family would feast, the Ji family could at least have some soup.

The Qian and Ji families had been old rivals for many years, with similar strengths. This time, with a rare invitation from the Wang family, the Ji family naturally wouldn't decline.

It was about uniting all possible forces, rather than the Wang family confronting other powers alone.

Wang Yi'er was covered in wounds but wore a wide smile.

"She almost got away. Fortunately, Fairy Ji eliminated her." Wang Yi'er said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, you flatter me. If you hadn't made your move, it would have been difficult for me to stop him." Ji Yuwei replied modestly.

"Let's not talk about that now. Let's go back and clear the battlefield! There's still a lot to do!"

Wang Yi'er headed back the way they came. Ji Yuwei collected the young woman in the blue dress's belongings and followed him.

Almost simultaneously, the Wang family, Ji family, Ning family, and several other forces launched attacks against the Qian family, assaulting multiple strongholds. Caught off guard, the Qian family suffered heavy losses, with many Spirit Transformation cultivators killed or wounded, and a large amount of their territory seized.
