Chapter 710: Intrigue and Deception

While Taihe and Xiaochan were fighting inextricably, Haokong bypassed the battlefield where the two were fighting and came to the other side of Fang City.

He opened his mouth and spat out, and a fiery red figure flew out of his mouth.

The fiery red figure instantly expanded and turned into a fire phoenix with a wingspan of dozens of feet.

The fire phoenix spreads its wings, and its wings are like red clouds filling the sky.

Its wings danced, and red flames condensed and formed under its body, like a blooming fire lotus.

The fire lotus exuded a scorching aura, like fire rain falling from the sky, pouring densely towards the city below.

Xiaochan, who was entangled by Taihe, was anxious and angry when he saw this scene.

He wanted to rescue him, but he was unable to do anything, so he could only shout loudly.

"Everyone, retreat!"

The ten Jindan monks of Hunyuan Temple who had arranged the formation stopped controlling the formation and retreated behind them, quickly moving away from Jieshanfang City.

The temperature of the fire rain was extremely high, and the whole world became scorching hot.

"Boom boom boom..."

Countless flames fell into the city.

The shops and houses in Fang City, regardless of whether they had defensive formations or not, burned in an instant.

The fire soared into the sky, and Fangshi, covering an area of ​​more than ten miles, turned into a sea of ​​fire.

These rains of fire were not aimed at the ten golden elixir monks in Hunyuan Temple. Except for two people who were unlucky and were affected by the fire wave and suffered some minor injuries, the others were all safe and escaped smoothly.

But the entire "Spirit Sacrifice Array" was submerged in the raging flames.

The "Spirit Sacrifice Array" disintegrated instantly, and the array flags and array patterns carved throughout the city were all burned by the flames and turned into ashes.

"Hahaha..."

Taihe looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Xiao Chan, it seems that Zen Master Fayan of your temple cannot be resurrected. Hahaha... You actually chose the place of Nirvana in the territory of our Nine Palaces Sect. You are simply asking for your own death!"

Xiaochan moved his cassock and looked at Taihe coldly.

"Taihe, don't be too proud. I, Hunyuan Temple, swear to take back the Boundary Mountain."

Back then, when Zen Master Fayan passed away, Jie Mountain and even the entire Yishi Ridge were under the control of Hunyuan Temple.

Moreover, the Jiugong Sect at that time was still an orthodox sect, and although its relationship with Hunyuan Temple was not good, it was not as antagonistic as it is now.

"Hmph! I still want to take back the Boundary Mountain. I'm just daydreaming..."

Before Tai He finished speaking, he saw bursts of Buddha's light suddenly rising from beneath the ground.

These Buddha lights look a bit weird. Instead of being majestic and bright, they have a sense of darkness.

Under the impact of Buddha's light, the flames in the city were instantly extinguished.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the ground.

The ground shook.

It was as if there was a giant beast beneath the ground, about to burst out of the ground.

The ground suddenly opened, and countless cracked rocks rose into the sky.

Among these cracked rocks, there is a figure.

This man is half human and half corpse.

The left half of the body has a somewhat human shape, and although it is thin, it has the aura of a living person; while the right half of the body has the appearance of a mummy, which looks extremely weird.

Especially his face, the left side of his face was already covered in flesh and blood.

The right side of his face was covered in dead gray dry skin clinging to his skull, his eyeballs were abnormally protruding, and the blood vessels on the surface of the eyeballs were clearly visible, giving people the illusion that they were about to burst.

And the blackened teeth were looming between the withered lips, adding a bit of terror and gloominess.

The half-corpse stared at Haokong with cold eyes and made a harsh and sharp sound.

"Those who disturb my resurrection will die!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed towards Haokong.

Seeing this person appear, Xiaochan looked surprised.

This half-human, half-corpse man was none other than Zen Master Fayan, whom he had worked so hard to help resurrect.

Immediately, another trace of disappointment flashed in Xiaochan's eyes.

Fayan's Nirvana sacrificial ceremony was forcibly interrupted, and his cultivation and strength failed to reach the expected peak. At this time, he was only at the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

It's still far behind the expected late Nascent Soul stage.

Fortunately, although the sacrificial ceremony was interrupted, it can be continued.

As long as those members of the Si family are still alive, they can find a safe place and continue to sacrifice. It's just that the effect will be worse.

Thinking of this, Xiaochan glanced at those giant spaceships.

At this time, there are still five Si family members surviving on the spacecraft.

Under Xiaochan's instructions, these spaceships are moving away from the battlefield.

"Master Fayan, don't worry! There are still members of the Si family who can help you break through the late Nascent Soul stage." Xiao Chan said loudly.

Fayan was holding a ten-foot-long iron rod in his hand.

The iron root is golden in color, with a lifelike horned dragon coiled around it.

Fayan raised his hand and threw it, and the horned dragon stick flew into the air.

The horned dragon stick expanded rapidly in the air, and in an instant it turned into a huge golden stick that was a hundred feet long and several feet thick, with golden flames lingering on it.

With the ear-piercing sound of breaking through the air, the horned dragon stick, carrying the power of breaking mountains and breaking rivers, thrust towards Haokong.

Haokong secretly said, "No."

He interrupted Fayan's sacrifice, and Fayan obviously hated him.

Fayan's attack was obviously murderous.

Haokong thought, and a shield suddenly appeared in front of him.

At the same time, the fire phoenix above his head opened his mouth and sprayed out, and a blazing pillar of fire surged out and went straight towards the horned dragon stick.

The pillar of fire collided with the dragon's stick, but it was like a mantis using its arms as a chariot.

The pillar of fire was easily dispersed, turning into a rain of fire that filled the sky and scattered in all directions.

The power of the horned dragon stick remained unabated and continued to hit Haokong.

Haokong used all his strength to drive the shield while rushing towards the Tai River.

"Boom!"

The dragon stick hit the shield, like two mountains colliding, and the violent aftermath swept all around, as if the sky was shaking.

The shield lost control under the huge force of the dragon stick and hit Haokong.

Haokong immediately shed blood, and his body fell backwards like a kite with a broken string.

Fayan took advantage of the situation and continued to chase Haokong with the dragon stick.

Just when Haokong's life was hanging by a thread, he suddenly felt his body lighten.

Someone used magic power to hold back his out-of-control body.

At the same time, a poisonous dragon condensed from green mist rushed out from behind Haokong and rushed straight to the dragon stick.

The poisonous dragon collided with the dragon stick.

The poisonous dragon instantly disintegrated and turned into green poisonous mist.

The dragon stick was also knocked back.

Haokong was also pulled to his side by Taihe's magic power.

A silver talisman suddenly appeared in Taihe's hand.

As the magic power was injected, cracks appeared on the talisman, and dazzling silver light burst out from the cracks.

The figures of the two people gradually became illusory under the shining of the silver light, until they disappeared completely.

Fa Yan had been in extinction for six hundred years, and obviously had never seen such a talisman, and he was slightly stunned.

He looked at the place where the two disappeared, with anger flashing in his eyes.

"They actually escaped."

Xiaochan's reaction was completely different from his.

The name of the small teleportation talisman had long been spread throughout the world of cultivation.

Taihe would use the small teleportation talisman to escape, which was already expected by Xiaochan.

Watching Taihe and Haokong being teleported away, Xiaochan did not show any disappointment on his face, but instead showed a sneer.

Want to escape?

How can it be that easy!

Hunyuan Temple has been preparing for today for many years.

If it weren't for the opportunity of Master Fayan's resurrection, it would not be easy to lead the Nine Palace Sect's Nascent Soul cultivators to the designated place.

How could we miss this great opportunity in vain!
