Evil Master and Disciple

Chapter 1397 Lingyin's Personal Motives

Rescuing someone, especially a top expert like Linglong, is not particularly difficult.

All it takes is to tear a hole in the encirclement; in just two or three breaths, that's enough for Linglong to escape.

The middle-aged woman suggested using a feint attack, which seemed like a good idea, but in practice, it had many drawbacks.

The biggest drawback is that the Goddess Palace will face potentially huge losses.

Because most of the hundred or so people from the Goddess Palace were at the Returning Origin and Divine Silence realms, their cultivation levels were practically cannon fodder on the Jiuhua Mountain battlefield tonight, and they were no match for the elders and seniors of the Cloud Sea Sect.

The so-called feint attack was actually a ploy to use the lives of the goddess palace disciples to give Linglong a chance to survive.

This is something the Holy Maiden of Spiritual Sound cannot accept.

She had a relationship with Linglong and had been in contact with her many times over the years.

However, her feelings for this senior master were solely due to her master, Fairy Ziyin.

If Fairy Ziyin were here tonight, she would definitely spare no effort to rescue Linglong.

The Holy Maiden Lingyin had no intention of putting hundreds of experts from the Goddess Palace in danger in order to save her Martial Uncle Linglong.

After a moment of contemplation, the Holy Maiden Lingyin shook her head and said, "No, the people from the Cloud Sea Sect who participated in the operation tonight are far more powerful than we expected. There are almost no younger disciples; most of them are peerless experts from the older generation."

Even if it's a feint, it will be difficult for us to quickly escape the battlefield. If we get entangled with these Cloud Sea Sect sword immortals, our losses tonight will be enormous.

Everyone looked at each other.

Just now, the Holy Maiden said that she would resolutely carry out the sect leader's orders and rescue that woman at all costs.

Why are we suddenly considering the number of casualties again?

The middle-aged woman who had just suggested a feint attack said, "Lingyin, what do you think we should do? Should we launch a full-scale assault?"

Lingyin immediately shook her head and said, "That won't do either. We can't afford the losses from a feint attack, and if we launch a full-scale attack, I think we'll all be buried here within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. We need to think this through carefully."

Suddenly, a woman said, "The fighting at Chanyue Nunnery is fierce. Several experts from Yunhai Sect are there trying to stop Shen Feiyang. Perhaps we can start from this angle."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Maiden of Spiritual Sound's eyes suddenly lit up.

She thought it was a good idea.

These women are no match for the elders and seniors of the Yunhai Sect, but they can defeat the Jinghui Nun of the Chanyue Nunnery.

The reason why Nun Jinghui has not appeared is because many experts from the Yunhai Sect are holding her back at the Chanyue Nunnery.

If we help Nun Jinghui escape her predicament and get her to appear at Shiyou Temple, wouldn't things be simple?

As for how long Linglong can hold on, and whether she can hold on until Jinghui arrives, that's up to fate.

The Holy Maiden of Spiritual Sound immediately made arrangements.

She instructed the disciples with lower cultivation levels to remain hidden in this mountain valley for the time being, and then most of the dozen or so top experts in the Celestial and Void Transformation realms in the group immediately set off for Zen Moon Nunnery.

Although many people felt that the Holy Maiden of Spiritual Sound's plan was somewhat contrary to the sect leader's determination to rescue the mysterious woman at all costs, no one said anything.

Your life is your own, and you only have one.

Who would risk their life to save a complete stranger?

Moreover, the sect leader has already entrusted the Holy Maiden with full command of tonight's operation.

Now that the Holy Maiden has made her decision, they will obey.

Of course, Lingyin also made another preparation.

She also left four elders at the Celestial Realm level here, in case something went wrong at Chanyue Nunnery or there wasn't enough time, she still planned to take a gamble.

However, it's impossible to get everyone to participate.

She only lets experts handle things; if they can save the person, they will, but if they can't, there's nothing she can do.

Zen Moon Temple is located in the northwest direction.

The battlefield has been moving northwest toward the direction of Shiki-ji.

The straight-line distance between Chanyue Nunnery and Shiyou Temple is at most thirty or forty li.

At this moment, the battlefield has moved more than ten miles to the northwest, and Li Ruoxi is now at most twenty miles away from the battlefield near Shiyou Temple.

Li Ruoxi, a powerful expert at the Heavenly Limit Realm, should have been invincible, but tonight she suffered a crushing defeat.

It wasn't that her cultivation level wasn't strong enough, but rather that there were too many people on the Yunhai Sect's side.

The advantage of the Heavenly Realm lies in the power of its domain.

Within the domain she created, she could easily annihilate powerful beings at the Celestial Realm or the Void Transformation Realm.

Although none of the elders and seniors on the Yunhai Sect's side have reached the Heavenly Limit Realm.

However, the powerful lightning that old woman Yuan Jiugong unleashed could cause considerable damage to the domain she had created.

In addition, more than twenty peerless experts at the Transformation Realm and Celestial Realm participated in this battle.

Led by Yuan Jiugong, these people unleashed powerful sword intent and bombarded Li Ruoxi relentlessly. Although Li Ruoxi severely injured several elders and seniors of the Yunhai Sect with her powerful strength, she was not Dugu Chan. It was almost impossible for her to break through the blockade of so many Yunhai Sect experts in a short period of time.

Jinghui Shenni has not yet made a move.

She simply stood on a golden auspicious cloud, quietly hovering outside the battlefield, as if everything before her had nothing to do with her.

Both Zhuge Jingtian and Yuan Jiugong specialize in lightning. Although Zhuge Jingtian's lightning skills are slightly inferior to Yuan Jiugong's, they are by no means to be underestimated.

The power of lightning is hailed as a power that only gods can wield, and its power far surpasses the energy of the five elements.

Otherwise, Yuan Jiugong, who had not reached the Heavenly Limit Realm, would not have been able to tear open Li Ruoxi's domain with lightning power.

At this moment, Zhuge Jingtian and Yuan Jiugong joined forces, and the thick lightning bolts, like terrifying purple pythons, shattered the space within a radius of several hundred feet.

Countless thick electric pythons were not attacking Li Ruoxi, but rather swirling around her body within a hundred feet, trying to break through her domain power.

If Li Ruoxi's domain power cannot play its due role, then her advantage of the Heavenly Limit Realm will be greatly diminished.

Li Ruoxi single-handedly withstood the attacks of more than twenty peerless masters from the Yunhai Sect. Although she was at a disadvantage, her moves did not falter.

With each swing of her divine sword, she could easily shatter countless incoming sword qi, each imbued with powerful laws and sword intent.

This is the gap between the Heavenly Limit Realm and the Void Transformation Realm; it cannot be bridged simply by having more people.

If it weren't for Yuan Jiugong and Zhuge Jingtian constantly tearing apart her domain power, Li Ruoxi, with her cultivation level, would have already killed more than half of these twenty-odd elders and seniors of the Yunhai Sect.
