Chapter 1701 - 1700: Heaven and Earth Net
Chapter 1701 - 1700: Heaven and Earth Net
Hei Wuchang didn’t stand on ceremony, took the items, and sat down on the ground without any care for his image, eating heartily.
Half an hour later.
Zhang Xiaohao and the other two stood up after eating and drinking their fill.
"Do you two need a rest?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.
"No need! It’s just a warm-up, no need for a special rest." Hei Wuchang replied.
"Me too." Zha Muzhen nodded.
"Since that’s the case, let’s set off! Advance three thousand kilometers forward, then intersect the peach grove and the flower sea, and set them up there!" Zhang Xiaohao said with a gleam in his eyes.
"Brother Qu, if the peach grove and the flower sea cross each other, it will produce deadly poison. Won’t our plan be exposed?" Hei Wuchang voiced his inner doubts.
"I’ve considered this point long ago! Since I’m doing it this way, I’ve taken this into account! When we set it up later, deploy a bit less at the front position. Wait until they go deeper inside, then deploy a bit more! By the time they realize something’s wrong, it will be too late!" Zhang Xiaohao explained.
"Brother Qu’s words are indeed wise! In that case, let’s move now." Hei Wuchang agreed.
"Let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao called out.
With Hei Wuchang and Zha Muzhen, he set off quickly towards the front.
Half a day later.
Zhang Xiaohao and the others stopped at a vast grassy field, surrounded by lush greenery, thriving flora and trees, with a strong scent of nature wafting from afar.
"Brother Qu, the environment here is truly beautiful, the air is so clear and natural! Compared to the other three places, it’s simply perfect! Deploy a Heaven and Earth Net here and trap them all; for them, death would be a pleasure!" Hei Wuchang remarked.
"Let’s not delay, give me the storage bags with the peach grove and flower sea, I’ll go set them up! Brother Hei, keep an eye on the latest news from the Underworld. Zha Muzhen, be on alert! If anything seems amiss, notify us immediately." Zhang Xiaohao instructed.
"Yes, Brother Qu."
"Yes, Master!"
Hei Wuchang and Zha Muzhen responded in unison.
At that moment, the two flipped their palms, each took out two extra-large storage bags and handed them to Zhang Xiaohao.
Taking the storage bags, Zhang Xiaohao quickly rushed forward.
Two hours later.
Zhang Xiaohao clapped his hands, and a series of pink peach groves flew out from the storage bags, landing on the ground, emitting a strong fragrance from the pink peach groves.
Zhang Xiaohao appeared indifferent, his figure flickering as he moved quickly around the area. With each movement, large patches of peach groves and flower seas flew out from the storage bags, landing on the ground.
Time flew by, half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Within several thousand kilometers, Zhang Xiaohao had set up peach groves and flower seas everywhere. The closer to the edges, the more peach groves and flower seas there were, the more potent the poison. Not to mention cultivators of the Unification Realm, even Great Mahayana Realm old monsters would meet certain death if they dare to step into the peach groves at the edge.
Only in the central area, there were only peach groves, no flower seas. However, after advancing a few kilometers forward, there lay an endless sea of flowers, blocking the entire north direction, covering a stretch of several thousand kilometers.
At this point, the location arranged by Zhang Xiaohao and the others had become a perilous hell, with danger levels comparable to the Dark Jungle, and even three times more hazardous than the Dark Jungle.
Zhang Xiaohao and the other two stood behind the peach groves and flower seas, gazing forward.
"With this setup, no matter the cultivation or number of those who come, fear not, all who come will meet their demise! Even if they can fly, under the influence of these mixed poisons, they won’t have a grave to return to! I’m really looking forward to the interesting scenes that will unfold next." Hei Wuchang said playfully.
"Yes indeed! With this arrangement by the master, all we need to do is lie in wait, everything else is so simple!" Zha Muzhen sighed.
"Alright, you two stop flattering me! If you keep on, I’ll become conceited! By the way, Brother Hei, how’s the latest news from the Underworld?" Zhang Xiaohao inquired.
"Brother Qu, all the Heavenly Court forces have gathered, and the powerful ones from various directions are ready! According to the news from the Underworld, this battle might involve as many as one hundred thousand people! At least five hundred Great Mahayana Realm old monsters! Everyone’s waiting for the Heavenly Court forces to begin the ritual with the Eternal Reincarnation Fruit. Once successful, the final showdown will commence! Right now, it’s calm before the storm." Hei Wuchang reported.
"Hmm! Just as I anticipated! It seems all forces from nearby clans have gathered. But I feel like this won’t be so straightforward! Since the Heavenly Court dares to conduct the ritual here, especially in front of all the clans, for the Eternal Reincarnation Fruit, they surely have some preparations! Now, it’s about who has the stronger trump card!" Zhang Xiaohao said, his eyes glinting.
"Hahaha—! Surely it’s you, Master! No matter how they fight, they must break through here. As long as we defend this place rigorously, they must fall no matter how many come! Eventually, the Eternal Reincarnation Fruit will be ours! And what we must do is to frame the Dongji Phoenix Clan neatly." Zha Muzhen flatteringly said.
"Hahaha—!" Zhang Xiaohao and Hei Wuchang exchanged a glance, then burst into laughter.
After this, Zhang Xiaohao and the others found a quiet spot, closed their eyes to rest, waiting for the catch.
The other side.
At the Ancient Pillar Altar, one after another, the Heavenly Court masked forces patrolled and guarded within a hundred-mile radius, in case of unforeseen events.
Just for this operation, the Heavenly Court deployed tens of thousands of powerful ones.
Among them, Great Mahayana Realm old monsters numbered nearly two hundred, while Unification Realm cultivators were too numerous to count.
Underneath the Ancient Pillar Altar, a Heavenly Court force leader donned a mask of the three-eyed Erlang God, serving as the leader for this endeavor, possessing Great Mahayana Peak cultivation.
"Is everything prepared?" Erlang God asked.
"Reporting to the master! Everything is prepared and ready for the ritual at any moment!" A late Mahayana stage elder wearing a Gold Star Taibai mask responded respectfully.
"I have only one request. Once the ritual is successful, no matter the cost, you must block them for me! As long as you hold out for a week, your task will be deemed complete!" Erlang God said coldly.
