My Cultivation Starting from Archery

Chapter 337: Assault (Part 2)



Dragon Elephant City, located within the territory of Si Xue Dao at the Tianshui Border, is usually managed by the Great Song Immortal Dynasty.

After the righteous and evil factions war began, the Demon Suppression Department's manpower became insufficient, hence the Holy Sect ordered that the sects nearby would take turns to guard it.

As for the root cause of the righteous and evil factions war, it is the struggle for cultivation resources.

Humans who cultivate through normal paths often primarily absorb nature's spiritual energy.

Whereas demon cultivators prefer the evil atmospheric energy.

Whenever they occupy a spirit vein, they would gradually transform it into a slaughter vein through blood sacrifice, slaughter, and other means.

Once it becomes a slaughter vein, ordinary cultivators can no longer reside, and even the surrounding spiritual beasts and spirit plants mutate.

Transforming a spirit vein into a slaughter vein requires sufficient slaughter.

However, purifying a slaughter vein back into a spirit vein is unknown how many resources and time it would take.

Therefore, righteous cultivators do not hesitate to pay a huge price to build a Great Wall across Heaven and Earth at the Tianshui Border.

But just as mortals may be unable to build a Great Wall due to geographical reasons, the cultivation world also faces many interferences, resulting in some gaps.

Dragon Elephant City is the place responsible for guarding the gap.

After Chen Sansi's flying boat operated for eight days, messages ahead were received.

A group of demon cultivators made use of the full moon night to deploy a formation and infiltrate the Si Xue Dao territory, lurking among mortal villages and towns.

Thus, upon entering Dragon Elephant City, their first task was to disperse and conduct a round of searches in the mortal world.

Speaking of which.

Chen Sansi had interacted with the Ancient Demon Clan very long before.

That was more than twenty years ago, within the Yin Mountain Range in the Northern Territory of the Great Han, where he personally destroyed the Ancient Demon Clan's blood sacrifice altar in Liangzhou and eliminated the Four Barbarian Tribes.

Since then, the barbarians had stopped plundering the border.

The journey on the flying boat was extremely dull.

Due to the lack of spiritual energy for cultivation, Chen Sansi could only focus on honing various skills.

However, in the following days, Lord Taishan might have been bored, as he called him over almost daily to 'rebuke' him, sharing a few insights amidst the scolding.

Chen Sansi gained quite a lot of useful experience from it.

What was curious was, after sharing his insights each time, Lord Taishan would require him to rehearse swordsmanship using Extreme Divine Power.

His close companionship with Mu Chutai soon drew the envy of other disciples.

Many privately inquired about how he managed to get along well with Lord Taishan, then left the team to obtain good wine and meat, just to seek a move or two.

Mu Chutai often only accepted things but did not teach.

Until several days later, he seemed embarrassed and agreed to speak on the deck every day at dawn.

However, the content was more beneficial to female cultivators, though the latter didn't listen at all.

And so, after another ten days, the group finally reached their destination—Si Xue Dao.

Arriving above the junction point of two paths, everyone saw a strange scene.

Right in front of them, the previously cloudless and sunny sky suddenly became filled with dense dark clouds, with thunder rolling in the clouds, starkly contrasting with the clear skies and white clouds outside Si Xue Dao, clearly distinct.

At the same time, the flying boat began descending, changing from high altitude to low altitude, almost skimming below the mountain ranges.

"Everyone!"

Xue Xianrong from Flowing Cloud Peak stepped forward to explain to everyone: "Many senior and junior brothers might be here for the first time at the border..."

This was the Demon Suppression Great Wall!

The Great Wall in the cultivation world, unlike the mortal world, is not just about building a wall.

Yet, it shares similar principles.

The main function of the mortal world's Great Wall is to block warhorses and prevent large-scale cavalry raids.

The cultivation world's Great Wall serves similarly, but it not only needs to block the ground, but also the boundless sky.

Cultivators can fly, and the sky is boundless and infinite, making it impossible to block completely.

So, the Great Wall of Demon Suppression has a major function—Forbidden space.

As the name implies, forbidding high-altitude flying.

What Chen Sansi saw was precisely the layers of thunder clouds above Si Xue Dao.

"Everyone, take a look!"

Xue Xianrong took out a low-level spiritual beast and forced it to enter under the dark clouds.

"Crack——"

Instantly, countless lightning bolts struck down, pulverizing the spiritual beast.

Under such prohibition, any living creature could only fly low, or otherwise, be struck by thunderstorms.

Even if high-realm cultivators could resist the thunder, it would inevitably cause a big disturbance, alerting Sky Water Continent.

The ground Great Wall city walls can also isolate all Earth Tunneling Techniques.

Combining the two makes the legend of the Demon Suppression Great Wall!

Its aerial prohibition envelops the entire Si Xue Dao.

The border Great Wall not only requires truly powerful beings to join forces and set up formations, but also annually consumes a large amount of spiritual energy.

Therefore, once demon cultivators invade and occupy the spirit veins, it could cause situations that could destabilize the entire line.

"We're almost there!"

As the flying boat descended into the thick black clouds, Qingxu Sect disciples showed different reactions.

Some were nervous and fearful, while others were excited and expectant.

Inside the Dragon Elephant City, there were a total of three forces guarding it: Qingxu Sect, the Demon Suppression Department, and Guiyuan Sect, each having a Golden Core.

After passing through the mountain ranges ahead, they could see the majestic Dragon Elephant City.

But just as everyone gathered on the deck and looked towards the front, the female cultivator Song Jing from Flowing Cloud Peak suddenly spoke: "Senior Brother Xue, is someone coming to meet us ahead?"

"Receiver?"

Xue Xianrong walked to the front of the crowd, squinting ahead to see indeed a group of cultivators wearing Demon Suppression Department battle robes flying on knife blades.

"I am Jia Ziyan, the gold medal Demon Suppression Guard of Si Xue Dao's Demon Suppression Department, sent by Commander Qian to support the Daoists of Qingxu Sect."

A middle-aged man with a long beard raised a token in his hand high: "An emergency situation has occurred!

"The demon cultivators who infiltrated Si Xue Dao territory days ago suddenly launched a blood sacrifice behind Dragon Elephant City. Commander Qian sent me to inform you not to go to Dragon Elephant City but to immediately clear the demonic barrier!"

"Daoist friend."

Xue Xianrong tapped the folding fan in his hand, half-believing, and said: "My father sent a message an hour ago, and did not mention it."

"..."

The middle-aged man was taken aback, then said: "We just hurried from the city an hour ago; if we don't go quickly, it will be too late!"

"Oh? Is it?"

Xue Xianrong said: "If that's the case, then... die!"

Halfway through the sentence, the mana in his Dantian exploded, the folding fan in his hand shone brightly, transforming into a piercing stream that bombarded ahead.

The middle-aged man was shocked, hurriedly summoned a black shield to defend himself, while shouting: "Daoist of Qingxu Sect, are you crazy!"

"Wretch, still pretending to be a ghost here!"

Xue Xianrong sternly rebuked: "My father didn't send a transmission at all, but traveling from Dragon Elephant City to here would at least take half a day! An hour to rush here, you think I'm a three-year-old?"

"Everyone be cautious, they are demon cultivators in disguise!"

Senior Brother Zhang suddenly realized, as a pocket-sized hammer in his palm rapidly enlarged, instantly becoming like a mountain covering the sky and slammed forward.

On the other side, as soon as Chen Sansi walked out of the cabin, he used [Qi Observation Skill] to detect the evil atmospheric energy within these people. He had already boldly taken action first, his True Power surging, as if the Yangtze River was pouring out from his sleeve, directly engulfing several demon cultivators.

The initially calm and dull journey suddenly became a blood-pounding melee!

Once the battle erupted, a lot of figures quickly emerged from the mountains below, like locusts swarming into the sky. All were demon cultivator disciples already lying in ambush, numbering at least two hundred.

"Everyone, do not panic!"

Xue Xianrong shouted: "All we need to do is to delay time; our thousands of fellow disciples from behind will soon catch up!"
