Chapter 807: The Heavenly Dao Begins to Favor Asura Palace

Upon hearing this, Sima Chang’s previously unwavering resolve began to waver.

He had changed his surname and joined House Sima purely to learn better cultivation techniques and obtain more resources.

As Gu Xuanfeng had pointed out, now that he had this opportunity, why should he continue to cling to House Sima, always looking backward and thinking about them?

He was already in the Nascent Soul stage, which meant he was qualified to establish his own sect!

"Master Gu, your words are indeed wise. Thank you." Sima Chang said, cupping his hands respectfully.

Although the Spirit Tree and Spirit Mine were protected by talismanic arrays, the energy of the person who set them up was still relatively low, meaning they could detect them easily. However, breaking them would require some effort.

Sima Chang was originally a Talisman Cultivator and after inspecting the situation once more, he had already assessed the situation in his mind.

"Brother Sima, how is it?" Gu Xuanfeng had been persuading him to join their side, hoping that he would break the talismanic arrays.

"No problem. Next, you all follow the positions I’ve drawn out for you. Once you see my signal, use your spiritual power, and we will surely break the talismanic array and destroy it." Sima Chang said.

"Great! Wonderful!" Gu Xuanfeng nodded. "Brother Sima will take the greatest credit. Once we’re done, you can choose the biggest Spirit Mine for yourself!"

Sima Chang smiled happily. "Everyone is working together, we’re all friends. No need for formalities."

However, in his heart, he had already made plans on which Spirit Mine he would claim for himself.

One wouldn’t be enough; he was aiming for at least two or three.

The people Sima Chang brought along were all his trusted subordinates. Even those who weren’t deeply loyal to him were now awestruck by the abundant resources of Mu Nation and were willing to follow him, standing by his side.

With such rich spiritual energy in this land, they had infinite possibilities ahead.

However, in the Upper Realm, and within House Sima, their paths would not go very far.

As for their families left in the Upper Realm...

Cultivating immortality meant severing ties with one’s loved ones!

Everyone was full of ambition, eager to make their mark.

According to the map Sima Chang had drawn, they all flew to their respective positions.

Sima Chang was the first to launch a talisman. A golden light shot up into the sky, then descended on the spot where the spiritual energy had gathered. The symbols of the talisman array appeared under the impact of the golden light!

He was stunned as he looked at the overlapping talismanic symbols.

Only Nanli was known to be proficient in talismans and arrays in the Human World.

He hadn’t expected her to make the array so sturdy.

With his own power, he could never break it.

Luckily, they had more than thirty people.

As the golden light struck, Gu Xuanfeng and the others immediately released their spiritual power to reinforce the golden light.

The entire mountain range trembled.

However, the talismanic barrier remained completely unmoved. No matter how the golden light fell, it did not break through or tear open even a small hole.

This was something Sima Chang had not anticipated.

At the same time, a bright light suddenly appeared from the direction of the Immortal World.

Though it was far away and looked like tiny stars, the vibrations from it were growing stronger.

What had happened in the Immortal World?

But Sima Chang dared not divert his attention. If he didn’t come up with a solution, they would be trapped here.

His gaze grew sharp as he quickly made a decision.

"Exchanging my lifespan for tenfold spiritual power!"

He summoned another talisman.

The talisman seemed to rob something from Sima Chang, and the symbols on the paper shone intensely.

When it fell on him, his spiritual power surged rapidly.

"Break!"

He shouted, and the combined spiritual power they gathered finally tore a hole in the talismanic array.

"We broke through!"

Everyone cheered with joy.

The hole continued to expand, and soon the entire array was shattered.

Sima Chang’s eyes reflected the light of the array breaking apart, and he grinned in triumph.

However, just then, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Clutching his chest, he dropped to one knee.

His expression turned agonized.

Though the talisman had temporarily boosted his cultivation and spiritual power, it had also inflicted a heavy backlash on him.

The Spirit Mine was right in front of him, but he had to quickly sit down and take medicinal pills, adjusting his breathing to stabilize himself.

The cultivators from House Sima gathered around.

Seeing Sima Chang in such a state, they couldn’t care less about occupying the Spirit Mine; they could only protect him.

As expected, Gu Xuanfeng arrived with the Night Asura.

He exuded a murderous aura.

Without wasting any words, he immediately drew his weapons and activated his magical treasures, launching a fierce attack.

The cultivators from House Sima were stunned and enraged. Rather than waste time questioning, they focused on fighting. Only then did they have any chance of winning.

But Gu Xuanfeng, having done many bloody jobs, attacked swiftly, accurately, and with ruthless precision.

With him leading the charge, the Golden Core cultivators from House Sima couldn’t put up any defense. In less than a cup of tea’s time, some were dead, others gravely wounded.

The few remaining survivors, unable to protect Sima Chang, quickly mounted their swords and fled.

Gu Xuanfeng didn’t care about them. He ordered his subordinates, "Chase them down and kill them."

The situation in Mu Nation must never be known to the major sects, or else Asura Palace would lose its chance to claim dominance.

Half of the Night Asura chased after the fleeing survivors to finish them off.

Gu Xuanfeng’s weapon was dripping with blood.

Step by step, he moved closer to Sima Chang.

Before even getting close, he unleashed a burst of spiritual power.

At the last moment, Sima Chang suddenly opened his eyes and struck with a palm, blocking the spiritual energy.

The explosion of sound reverberated through the mountains.

The surrounding trees shook violently, some uprooted while others snapped in half.

Sima Chang had narrowly avoided disaster, but the earlier backlash, combined with the force of this strike, had already damaged his internal organs and Dantian.

The pain spread through him.

He furrowed his brows, glaring ahead and cursing, "Gu Xuanfeng, you vile scoundrel! You’ve broken your word. You’ll face the wrath of the heavens!"

"Hahaha! I never swore anything. What wrath of the heavens?"

Gu Xuanfeng rolled his eyes.

"Don’t blame me for being ruthless when you were so stupid. When has Asura Palace ever followed the rules?"

A few short sentences left Sima Chang powerless to refute.

His face flushed with anger, a strange look on his face.

When he looked down at the bodies of his subordinates on the ground, the Night Asura had already dug out their core crystals, and the scene was gruesome.

He was deeply pained, but his priority now was to save his own life. He shouted, "We will all die at your hands, but our master will never let this go! Don’t forget, House Sima is backed by Penglai Island!"

"Tsk tsk." Gu Xuanfeng sneered. "Once we move Asura Palace to the Human World, not even Penglai Island or the Jialan Celestial Mountain will be able to trouble us!"

Sima Chang froze. "How do you know this?"

Gu Xuanfeng pulled the corner of his mouth into a mocking smile and said,

"To capture a few mortals, you had to pay a high price to get Asura Palace involved. Doesn’t that seem strange? Also, out of all the major factions, House Sima is the weakest. Why would they send you here? Doesn’t that seem even stranger?"

"So, our Palace Master already sent people to investigate. That’s how we found out that Qingwu and Yan Buxiu swore never to enter the Human World."

"It seems the Heavenly Dao is starting to favor us, Asura Palace. This Mu Nation... will soon be our domain!"
