Chapter 292: Chapter 151 Like-minded Individuals_2

The two spells collided, and Yu Tiancheng’s body swayed slightly, but the invisible giant hand in the air remained unbroken, refining the extraordinary power of the Heavenly Elder’s incarnation.

A blood-red pearl slowly fell from the sky.

Yu Tiancheng spread open his palm, and the pearl landed in it.

Chen Shi sensed that this pearl contained extremely terrifying power, and if refined, it could probably be made into a magical treasure or something similar.

But he also didn’t know how to craft magical treasures.

Yu Tiancheng stuffed the blood pearl into his hand, leaving Chen Shi astonished and looking at him in confusion. Yu Tiancheng smiled and said, "You caught the Heavenly Elder’s incarnation, so of course it’s yours. I’m off to deal with Wu Daozheng!"

He walked outside, laughing heartily, "Master Wu, since you’ve come, why do you want to leave?"

Tianlao Society Hall Master Wu Daozheng and a group of top experts from Tianlao Society had arrived at Red Mountain Hall with fierce momentum, but at this moment, Wu Daozheng’s mouth was bleeding, clearly having clashed with Yu Tiancheng just now and suffered a setback.

He didn’t dare stay and immediately led his people to leave.

He fled quickly, and Yu Tiancheng chased just as fast, rushing out of Red Mountain Hall and saying with a laugh, "Master Wu, why the rush? Why don’t you come in and sit? I’ve already prepared the coffins!"

Tianlao Society Hall Master Wu Daozheng was shocked and whispered, "Yu Tiancheng, this treacherous little man, has murderous intent! Quick, call for the Heavenly Elder!"

Chen Shi limped and struggled to run outside, when suddenly he saw red lights filling the courtyard. The divine image of the Red Mountain Lady, the little girl in red, also rushed outside, brimming with a fierce desire to fight, obviously ready to join Yu Tiancheng in the fiery conflict with Tianlao Society!

At the same time, inside Red Mountain Hall, Master Xiao led a group of instructors and Talisman Masters, a swarm of over a hundred people, running towards the outside.

Master Xiao shouted, "All Talisman Masters, prepare your talismans, ready for battle!"

Various talismans—yellow, green, peach, iron, as well as those inscribed on bronze cauldrons and swords—all kinds of talismans were raised by Red Mountain Hall’s Talisman Masters.

The crowd whistled past Chen Shi, bursting out of Red Mountain Hall onto the main street, where all kinds of talismans converged into clouds in the sky.

"Hey! Wait for me!"

Chen Shi, anxious in his heart, hurriedly called out, "This mess I caused, I’ve got to be there!"

Before he had finished speaking, Master Xiao, leaning on his crutch and limping, ran forward, moving even faster than him.

However, Master Xiao’s injuries were also severe, and when he tried to cross the threshold, he didn’t make it over, and with a plop, he fell to the ground.

He quickly got up, picked up his crutch, and rushed out of the door, turning back to say, "Master Chen, don’t follow, rest and recover! I’ll go and kill a few demon brats!"

With that, he moved his crutch like the wind, disappearing from Chen Shi’s sight.

Chen Shi clenched his teeth, enduring the pain, and strove to rush outside. Several cooks who had been cooking just now also picked up kitchen knives and charged past him with fierce expressions.

"Red Mountain Hall, so united?"

Chen Shi trembled with pain, and upon seeing Black Pot, he quickly said, "Black Pot, Black Pot! Hurry up! Put me on the cart, I want to follow!"

Black Pot came over, picked him up around the waist, and placed him on the wooden cart.

The wooden cart rattled and rolled, coming to the great gate of Red Mountain Hall’s main temple, and the cart lifted its right front wheel to step over the threshold.

Outside the main temple gates, two tall and majestic stone lions also suddenly leaped down from their pedestals and rumbled forward.

"Faster!" Chen Shi urged.

The wooden cart creaked and cracked, sprouting several arms each more than a yard long, six in total, which reached down to the ground while the wheels retracted, stepping over the threshold.

The wheels hit the ground, and the arms retracted. Various Armored Horse Talismans on the hubs of the wooden cart lit up, and suddenly wind roared and strong gusts rushed at their faces, carrying Chen Shi forward at speed.

Behind the wooden cart, Black Pot grasped the compass with both claws, striving to keep up while also steering to prevent collisions with the buildings on either side.

Chasing along the way, Chen Shi saw that the clouds formed by the talismans had begun to unleash their power, which must mean Red Mountain Hall’s Talisman Masters had started clashing with Tianlao Society’s Cultivators!

From afar, he heard Red Mountain Hall Master Yu Tiancheng laugh and say, "Master Wu, since you have come, make yourself at home. If I can’t bury you properly after your visit, wouldn’t I be failing in my hospitality?"

Chen Shi heard this and trembled with excitement, turning back and saying to Black Pot, "Brother Tiancheng is also a practitioner of Master’s knowledge, my path is not lonely! He also said his learning was not profound, that he failed to pass the Scholar exam, but I think his learning is extremely profound!"

He was jolted so much by the wooden cart that his whole body ached yet he was still excited beyond comprehension, and highly agitated, "It must have been the examiners back then. They were blind to have overlooked such a self-taught talent! Hurry up, even faster!"

The street ahead was too crowded, with pedestrians and official runners, all looking around.

The wooden cart couldn’t get through and suddenly grew arms that extended wooden limbs, grabbed onto the eaves, and pulled the wooden cart onto the rooftops.

This cart hurtled across the rooftops, the wheels crushing many green and black tiles, and whenever it encountered an obstacle, it would sprout six arms to vault over, landing on the opposite rooftop to continue its frantic rush on all fours.

Black Pot frowned deeply, struggling to control the consciousness of the people on the street, but soon he realized it was futile.

"Just let it be!"

Dog Son, resigned to his fate, ran energetically to keep up with the wooden cart.

To hell with what these mortals think, Dog Father is done caring!

Suddenly, up ahead, the massive head of Heavenly Elder slowly rose.

The true body of Heavenly Elder was enshrined in the main hall, with her divine form flying towards them, her mouth wide open from afar, countless tongues lashing out, attacking the talisman masters of Red Mountain Hall!

She, having been worshipped with incense for a long time, possessed extraordinary divine power that was thick and unyielding, with any talisman it touched instantly extinguished, completely unable to block it.

Heavenly Elder’s tongues wrapped around more than a dozen talisman masters and began retracting towards her mouth, along with a few onlookers who loved watching chaos unfold and ended up as collateral damage, swept up as if they were talisman masters of Red Mountain Hall, poised to be devoured.

Ordinary people and ordinary cultivators couldn’t see the divine form of Heavenly Elder; they could only see more than a dozen people suddenly flying into the air as if bound, moving towards the same direction.

As for what was binding them, the people were clueless.

The magical combat between the talisman masters of Red Mountain Hall and the cultivators of Tianlao Society often consisted of invisible Sword Qi, which was imperceptible in its coming and going; one could only see heads flying off or floors shattered, and eaves cleaved.

Only by opening the Heavenly Eye or utilizing the Heavenly Eye Talisman could the movements of the divine form be seen.

But the movements of the magical combat, even with the Heavenly Eye Talisman, couldn’t be seen clearly.

Suddenly, a small red figure streaked across the sky, a red light shooting straight at Heavenly Elder.

Heavenly Elder had not yet managed to swallow those dozen or so people when that tiny red figure punched her massive face.

Heavenly Elder’s entire face caved in instantly, unable to hold onto those people any longer.

Chen Shi saw it all clearly; that small red figure was none other than Red Mountain Lady.

"What forceful moves from the Lady!" exclaimed Chen Shi in astonishment.

Red Mountain Lady plummeted down, landing on Yu Tiancheng’s shoulder, who raised her like a Primordial Spirit to face Heavenly Elder and Wu Daozheng, injuring them repeatedly in the fierce battle, leaving them covered in wounds.

"Kill them!" Red Mountain Lady cried.

Chen Shi, the great kindhearted man, was inspired by her, boiling with enthusiasm as he urged the small temple, wishing he could summon Stone Rock Lady to petrify dozens of miles in range, but to his disappointment, he failed to summon her even after trying.

"Hall Master, Master said, ’Those of insufficient strength will fail halfway through the path!’" Chen Shi shouted loudly in reminder.

Yu Tiancheng, in the middle of battle with Heavenly Elder and Wu Daozheng, paused for a moment and cried out in a loud voice, "What does that mean?"

"Master said, ’Those whose strength is not up to mine will be destroyed by me halfway through!’" answered Chen Shi loudly, "Master wants you to give your full effort when you attack, and not to hold back!"

Yu Tiancheng’s spirit soared as he said to Red Mountain Lady on his shoulder, "This Brother Chen, he is certain to pass the Scholar exam this time. His knowledge far surpasses mine! If only I could have received his guidance back then, I wouldn’t still be failing to pass the Scholar exam to this day!"

Red Mountain Lady leaped from his shoulder and pounced on Heavenly Elder, thinking to herself, "Why do I feel like if Xiao Tiancheng had followed Chen Shi’s knowledge, he would have probably ended up on the Ten Thousand Soul Banner many years ago."
