Chapter 3922: Breaking Through the Encirclement

The two-colored Chaos Beasts in the early True Immortal stage fared no better. Struck by a silver lightning bolt, they survived as long as their vital spots weren't hit, but they lost their combat ability.

Wang Qingshan flipped his right hand, and the Azure Lotus Sword appeared in his grasp. He swept it towards the void, and a towering green sword beam surged forth, slicing dozens of one-colored Chaos Beasts in half.

Wang Qingxiao let out a deafening dragon roar, transforming into a pure white Flood Dragon. Its scales were sharp and prominent, and it exhaled cold mist.

Wang Qingling's body glowed brightly as she entered the white Flood Dragon's body. The white Flood Dragon's aura quickly rose from the late True Immortal stage to the Grand Completion True Immortal stage.

The white Flood Dragon's tail swept out, striking a three-colored Chaos Beast in the mid True Immortal stage. The beast was sent flying, with a terrifying gash on its body. It wasn't dead yet, but it was severely wounded and had lost its combat ability.

The white Flood Dragon opened its maw and unleashed a blinding white light, hitting a two-colored Chaos Beast in the mid True Immortal stage. Its body quickly froze, turning into a massive ice sculpture. With a fierce claw strike, the ice sculpture shattered into pieces. The Chaos Beast turned into a mass of blood clots, its blood splattering across the ground.

Wang Yingjie's body glowed with dazzling five-colored spiritual light. He moved both his fists, and accompanied by piercing whooshing sounds, gigantic five-colored fists flashed out, striking the heads of one-colored Chaos Beasts. The one-colored Chaos Beasts instantly bled profusely from their heads.

Having cultivated into a True Spirit, he could easily eliminate one-colored Chaos Beasts in the mid True Immortal stage.

Ye Haitang, Liu Hongxue, and Wang Yidao also cast spells to attack the Chaos Beasts. The surging Chaos Beasts suffered heavy casualties, but their numbers were simply too great.

"You retreat first, I'll cover the rear!" Wang Mengbin said, his hand seals continuously shifting. Tens of thousands of thick silver lightning bolts tore through the sky, striking down at the approaching Chaos Beasts. This entire area became like a thunder domain.

Wang Qingshan didn't hesitate. He summoned an azure flying boat and carried Wang Yingjie and the others away in retreat.

Wang Mengbin and the white Flood Dragon covered their retreat, fighting as they withdrew.

The ground burst open as a beast-humanoid five-colored Chaos Beast emerged from below. Judging by its aura, it was at the Grand Completion True Immortal stage.

"To dare trespass into the Hulun Mountain Range, you're truly seeking death." The five-colored Chaos Beast spoke in human tongue. It stomped its right foot heavily on the ground, tearing the earth open and creating a long, wide crack. Immediately after, a powerful gravitational force appeared out of thin air.

"The power of laws! A mutated Chaos Beast!" Wang Qingshan's brows furrowed. Even if all eight of them joined forces against the mutated five-colored Chaos Beast, they might not be able to defeat it. Now, large numbers of Chaos Beasts were rushing towards their location. If they were held back by the mutated Chaos Beast, they would surely perish in the onslaught of the Chaos Beast horde.

He flipped his right hand, and with a flash of black light, the Seven Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl appeared in his hand.

Wang Yidao swung his saber, unleashing a void slash towards the mutated Chaos Beast. The void tore open, and a towering golden saber beam surged forth, striking at the mutated Chaos Beast.

The mutated Chaos Beast punched out, effortlessly shattering the towering saber beam. Not even a white mark was left on its hand.

A rumbling sound of thunder echoed as an incomparably thick silver lightning pillar descended from the sky, heading straight for the mutated Chaos Beast.

A dazzling yellow light surged from the mutated Chaos Beast's body, and a thick yellow armor appeared, covering its entire body. It then punched out, meeting the silver lightning pillar.

With a loud bang, the silver lightning pillar, as if made of paper, was shattered by a single punch from the mutated Chaos Beast. Dazzling silver lightning engulfed an area of ten thousand li, and dust billowed everywhere.

A long, thick white dragon tail plunged into the silver lightning, emitting a muffled thud, as if it had struck an impenetrable wall of bronze.

As the dust settled, the mutated Chaos Beast was seen gripping the white Flood Dragon's tail with both hands. With a mighty swing, it slammed the white Flood Dragon's head violently into the ground, destroying dozens of peaks.

The white Flood Dragon's body erupted with white light, transforming into a massive ice sculpture. The ice sculpture then shattered into pieces, turning into countless white ice shards.

A black light flashed, and the Seven Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl appeared above the mutated Chaos Beast's head.

Wang Qingshan performed a hand seal, and the Seven Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl exploded, a dazzling black sun rising into the sky, enveloping an area of tens of thousands of li.

Large numbers of Chaos Beasts covered by the black sun fell from high in the sky. They had no visible injuries on their bodies, but were lifeless and motionless.

Seizing this opportune moment, Wang Qingshan and the others fled into the distance, moving at great speed.

Not long after, the black sun dissipated. The mutated Chaos Beast lay on the ground, its expression dazed, as if lost in thought.

The Seven Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl was a treasure capable of threatening Golden Immortal cultivators; even a Golden Immortal cultivator would be severely wounded by one. The beast hadn't died, but its soul was severely damaged, and it had lost its combat ability. An ordinary five-colored Chaos Beast would have already been killed.

Large numbers of Chaos Beasts pursued Wang Qingshan and the others. They covered each other, fighting desperately to break through the encirclement. However, the Chaos Beasts gave relentless chase, so they split into two groups, fleeing in different directions.

Wang Qingshan, Wang Qingling, Wang Qingxiao, and Wang Yingjie formed one team, while Wang Mengbin, Liu Hongxue, Wang Yidao, and Ye Haitang formed the other.

Nine Immortals City. The streets were bustling with people like a surging tide, and carts and horses filled the air with clamor.

In a quiet small courtyard with green tiles, Meng Yudie and Meng Tianmei were seated in an azure stone pavilion, sipping tea and chatting.

"Is there any evidence that the Wang family did it?" Meng Yudie asked with a frown.

"No," Meng Tianmei replied, her face filled with worry. "If it truly was Fairy Chimeng's cultivation cave, the Wang family must have struck it rich. They might even produce a Golden Immortal cultivator."

"Hmph, becoming a Golden Immortal cultivator isn't that easy," Meng Yudie scoffed. "Aside from the spiritual elixirs needed to break through to the Golden Immortal stage, the lightning tribulation is also a major hurdle. Even if True Immortal Taihao is a True Spirit, it's wishful thinking to believe he can withstand all the immortal lightning."

When a True Immortal cultivator attempts to break through to the Golden Immortal stage, they will attract immortal lightning. The power of immortal lightning is even greater than the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

She took out a transmission immortal mirror, its precious light constantly flickering. She cast a spell into it, and Meng Yuhua appeared on the mirror's surface, his face pale and his expression listless.

"What happened?" Meng Yudie asked with a frown.

Meng Yuhua briefly recounted what had happened. He had used multiple first-grade escape talismans to break free, but had also been severely wounded by the Chaos Beasts. He couldn't contact Bai Jiangxue, who might have been killed.

"Even you, who escaped the fastest, are severely injured," Meng Yudie said, a hint of joy appearing on her face. "I imagine the Wang family cultivators aren't doing much better. Even if they weren't completely wiped out, at least half of them must have perished."

"I hope so! I've hurried back first," Meng Yuhua said.

"Alright, be careful on your way."

Meng Yudie put away the transmission immortal mirror, her face alight with joy. "Without these experts, let's see how the Wang family plans to defend Haoyang City. When the time comes, I'll plead with master to hand Haoyang City over to our Meng family. If that's not possible, we must still reclaim Haoyang City. We cannot allow the Wang family to grow stronger unchecked."

Meng Yudie's face was full of confidence.

"Excellent! The Wang family making enemies of us is a dead end for them." Meng Tianmei was overjoyed, her face beaming with a triumphant smile.
