Chapter 1420 - Chapter 1420 Chapter 697 Xiang Liu

Chapter 1420: Chapter 697: Xiang Liu Chapter 1420: Chapter 697: Xiang Liu “Don’t worry about Tong Wuxie!”

Duan Longcheng firmly conveyed to Duan Siping, “As long as we remove the Realm Heart Stone before the adversary returns, even if Tong Wuxie comes back, there will be nothing he can do!”

Although among the visitors to the Evil King Palace, Duan Siping was the highest in terms of cultivation and seniority, it was the Young Palace Master, Duan Longcheng, who truly issued commands.

Since the old Palace Master, Immortal Evil King, perished, it had been due to his vigor that the restless spirits of the Evil King Palace stabilized.

Although the Evil King Palace’s influence in the highest martial realms had greatly waned, the governance of the Evil King City had improved significantly; it even thrived and prospered more than during the Immortal Evil King’s reign.

For the commoners and most of the aristocratic families, the relationships between sects were too esoteric and lofty; all they wanted was a territory that could develop peacefully.

The actions of Duan Longcheng after he took power convinced the people of the Evil King City that even without the old city master, there was someone who could lead them toward a brighter future.

With the lower classes stabilized, the middle-class families naturally extinguished their intentions to stir up trouble; though the old Evil King was gone, the Duan Family still possessed absolute dominance over high-end combat power relevant to the aristocratic families.

Everything about the Evil King Palace was developing for the better, and Duan Longcheng’s prestige grew increasingly higher.

However, only the senior clansmen who watched Duan Longcheng grow up knew how difficult it was to stabilize the chaos after the fall of the Immortal Evil King.

Taking such risk was not new to them; even if it involved confronting the Wuji Grandmaster, Duan Siping, after pondering for a moment, agreed to Duan Longcheng’s plan.

“Then, Young Palace Master, lead your men into the Minor Spiritual Realm immediately.”

Duan Siping said gravely, “I will hold off the Wuji Guards outside. Even if Tong Wuxie returns, I can buy you enough time.”

“Be very careful, Elder, Longcheng will return shortly!”

At a critical moment where every second counted, Duan Longcheng naturally would not hesitate, especially since Duan Siping present there possessed the highest realm of power.

He actually wanted to confront the Red-eyed Evil Dragon and that Wuji Grandmaster, but regrettably, he had already started the process of Spirit Qualification, and for such particularly dangerous and injury-prone activities, no one in the Evil King Palace would allow it to happen.

As the disciple most qualified for kingship, Duan Longcheng bore the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Evil King City. His body was not only his own but also belonged to the Evil King Palace–this was the essence of “greater power, greater responsibility.”

Holding a high position did not grant more freedom; sometimes, one couldn’t even afford to be a pure martial artist.

In just a few words, Duan Longcheng, having finalized the strategy with Duan Siping, led the powerful members of the Evil King Palace, attired in silvery-gray standard spirit armor, towards Diancang Mountain.

And Duan Siping alone went to confront the Wuji Guards, which somewhat shocked Tong Zhenshan and his brother.

They had not anticipated Duan Longcheng’s decisiveness, dividing their forces into two groups for a direct assault.

Saying “dividing forces” actually meant Duan Siping going in alone; they were quite familiar with this veteran master of the Evil King Palace.

Since the old Evil King’s fall, the Evil King Palace had unguardedly engaged in openly hostile acts, with the Grandmasters leading teams to contest over interests was a common sight, and Grandmaster Duan Siping had led such teams countless times himself.

“Big brother, what do we do? That old man is charging at us!”

Tong Zhenhai complained to his elder brother with a worried expression, feeling pain in the chest that Xiang Liu had once severely wounded, “Should we avoid them for now, and wait for the Grandmaster to come back…”

“Spineless!”

Tong Zhenshan scolded, “There’s only one of them; what’s there to fear? Fight him!”

“Oh, my dear elder brother, this man is no ordinary person.”

Tong Zhenhai continued to complain bitterly. But since the team leader, his brother, had issued the order, he had to brace himself for a battle through hell or high water. However, he still needed to warn their comrades from Wuji Guards, because not everyone had fought and survived an encounter with Duan Siping: “Spread out the team, increase the distance, look for opportunities individually, absolutely, absolutely, do not fight head-on.”

In just a few moments, Duan Siping had already approached nearby. Like all members of the Evil King Palace who practiced Mimicry Technique and Soul Casting, he visualized a beast for Soul Casting.

However, his visualization was of the ancient fierce beast Xiang Liu, and after achieving the master rank, he had further broken down and recast his spirit-qualified body, creating a unique body of Xiang Liu.

Other people’s beastly spirits were auxiliary supports for attack, while Duan Siping himself was an ancient fierce beast!

His silhouette grew taller against the wind, his clothes bursting at the seams as his skin inflated drastically, turning a venomous emerald green, and beneath the torn skin were layers of phosphorescent scales.

His human head transformed into a snake’s head with hair cascading down, a single horn grew on his forehead, his neck swelled and elongated, stretching to tens of meters in just a moment.

Even more, eight bulging tumors grew over his body, growing larger and larger until they split the skin and eight horned snake heads burst forth.

His hands and feet transformed into dragon claws that tread the ground, his spine elongated into a dragon’s tail, morphing into the fierce beast Xiang Liu with nine heads resembling both snakes and horns, surveilling the scattered Wuji Guards in all directions.

Though they had already moved quite a distance away, each of them felt as though they were being personally targeted by Xiang Liu.

As the deputy commanders, the Tong brothers naturally needed to stay at the forefront of the battlefield, and the elder brother who saw Duan Siping transform into Xiang Liu for the first time was naturally quite shocked.

Descendants of powerful sects, even if lacking in strength, certainly possess keen insight and have their own methods to assess the strength of mimic spirits.

The reason why it’s called the Mimicry Technique is precisely to emulate the attributes of the beast, and for emulation, the subject must indeed exist to allow for such imitation.
