Chapter 879: Persuasion |
While suppressing Wood Ring Daoist Master, the old man reached out with a big hand and heavily grabbed towards the tall tree.
He not only wanted to extinguish Changchun True Monarch's Primordial Spirit but also to take away this rare Fourth Rank Spirit Wood.
After losing his physical body, Primordial Spirit True Monarch's strength would be greatly reduced.
Even if Changchun True Monarch is currently sleeping, he still wouldn't be able to compete with a same-level Primordial Spirit cultivator.
The old man saw that success was within reach, but his face suddenly changed, and he withdrew all his power, giving up on suppressing Wood Ring Daoist Master. His figure flashed and attempted to dodge.
Unfortunately, an endless stream of radiance from the sun and moon descended from the sky, completely enveloping his figure.
No matter how he tried to dodge, the boundless radiance followed him like a shadow.
The old man suddenly stopped and looked solemnly ahead.
"Sect Master Meng, do you really have to intervene in this matter?"
"Could it be that Wonderful Pill Union's dog food is really that tempting?"
Meng Zhang's figure appeared in the air above the Spirit Wood, looking down mockingly.
As he spoke, the boundless radiance stopped in the air, not continuing to descend.
Yang San True Monarch was once a well-known loose cultivator of the Primordial Spirit stage in the Jiuqu League.
However, his character was despicable, he bullied the weak and feared the strong, and he lacked the bearing expected of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch.
Neither Azure Origin Sect nor Jade Sword Sect regarded him highly, so no one brought him into the upper echelons of the Jiuqu League.
When the Jiuqu League was about to undergo a great change, this guy saw the situation early and fled from the Jiuqu League.
When the Jiuqu League was conquered by the Dali Dynasty and became the Jiuqu Province of the Dali Dynasty, this guy somehow reappeared and showed up in Jiuqu Province.
His appearance here at this time clearly harbored ill intentions. Needless to say, he had already been bought by Wonderful Pill Union.
"Sect Master Meng, a wise person knows the current situation. You are well aware of the strength of Wonderful Pill Union."
"Under the general trend, anyone attempting to stop a crushing force is nothing more than an ignorant ant seeking death."
"Wonderful Pill Union doesn't have any ill intentions towards Taiyi Sect. If Sect Master Meng has any ideas, you can proactively communicate with Wonderful Pill Union. Why make such a hostile gesture?"
Yang San True Monarch patiently tried to persuade Meng Zhang. Yang San True Monarch has extremely seniority; when he achieved the Primordial Spirit stage, Meng Zhang was still playing with sand in the Endless Sea of Sand.
People have their names, and trees have their shadows. Meng Zhang has experienced several major battles and earned a renowned reputation.
Those who underestimated Meng Zhang because of his young age mostly received a lesson.
Yang San True Monarch, accustomed to bullying the weak, was unwilling to tackle the difficult problem of Meng Zhang.
"Sect Master Meng, Wonderful Pill Union is also considering your situation. They know you promised to take care of Changchun True Monarch. To avoid putting you in a difficult position, I came here to resolve the issue once and for all."
"Since Changchun True Monarch is no longer here, I suppose Sect Master Meng has no need to stand up for Changchun Outlook, right?"
If Yang San True Monarch could persuade Meng Zhang with his eloquence, it would be the best outcome for him.
"Wonderful Pill Union is so understanding and considerate. It shows their sincerity."
"Sect Master Meng, even if you don't consider yourself, you should think about Taiyi Sect. Why bother to stand against a formidable enemy like Wonderful Pill Union for someone unrelated?"
Facing Yang San True Monarch's seemingly earnest persuasion, Meng Zhang remained unresponsive. Instead, it was Wood Ring Daoist Master who looked anxious.
He was genuinely afraid that Yang San True Monarch would persuade Meng Zhang to give up on helping Changchun Outlook.
This time, Wonderful Pill Union even sent a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, indicating their determination to subdue Changchun Outlook.
Wood Ring Daoist Master had some regrets in his heart.
If he had known that things would escalate to this point, he should have persuaded Wood Sun Daoist Master to yield.
His Sect Master senior brother was excellent in many ways, but sometimes, his temperament was too rigid.
One must be flexible and not resist at all times.
The real foundation of Changchun Outlook lay in Changchun True Monarch, who was currently in deep slumber within the Fourth Rank Spirit Wood.
As long as Changchun True Monarch was still present, no matter what Changchun Outlook lost today, even if it was everything, there would still be a chance to regain it.
But if something happened to Changchun True Monarch, then Changchun Outlook would be truly finished.
After Meng Zhang made a move, Yang San True Monarch gave up suppressing Wood Ring Daoist Master. He was now free to act and speak.
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he swallowed a thousand words back.
He had no bargaining chips in hand, and he didn't know how to persuade Meng Zhang to lend a helping hand.
He was never good with words, and if he spoke rashly, he might end up annoying Meng Zhang, which would be counterproductive. Yang San True Monarch saw that Meng Zhang remained silent, listening to him quietly as he spoke, and thought that Meng Zhang was somewhat swayed.
He was about to strike while the iron was hot and thoroughly persuade Meng Zhang when Meng Zhang finally spoke.
"Are you done talking?"
A cold voice entered Yang San True Monarch's ears.
"If you're done, then let's get on with it."
In the disbelieving gaze of Yang San True Monarch, Meng Zhang made a move once again.
The endless radiance that was originally suspended in the air became even more ferocious as it swept over.
Two streams of energy, one black and one white, intertwined and twisted in the air.
Suddenly, Yang San True Monarch felt as if the entire world was rejecting and hostile towards him.
Meng Zhang immediately mobilized the power of the Grand Dao, clearly showing no intention of holding back.
Yang San True Monarch couldn't stop cursing Meng Zhang as a lunatic, but he couldn't afford to be negligent and also activated the power of the Grand Dao.
Yang San True Monarch's primary cultivation of the Grand Dao was the Wind Grand Dao among the three thousand Grand Daos.
The True Monarch Profound Wind, whom Meng Zhang had dealt with in the past, also cultivated the Wind Grand Dao.
However, the same Wind Grand Dao, when displayed by different people, seemed like two completely unrelated Grand Daos.
Meng Zhang remembered that True Monarch Profound Wind was graceful and swift as the wind. He could be as light as a breeze and as fierce as a hurricane.
But now, Yang San True Monarch's main ability was in evasion, obviously not skilled at direct confrontation.
His response to Meng Zhang's moves focused on evasion, and he was still looking for an opportunity to retreat, showing no intention of engaging in a head-on clash with Meng Zhang.
If he had encountered another opponent of the same level, Yang San True Monarch would have used his escape abilities to quickly flee the battlefield.
However, before making a move, Meng Zhang had already made up his mind to keep Yang San True Monarch here.
He was determined to show his resolve and combat strength to Wonderful Pill Union with Yang San True Monarch's life.
Meng Zhang did not hold back from the beginning, continuously revealing his trump cards, almost never relenting.
The Yin Yang Spirit Gourd above his head trembled gently, and the Yin and Yang energies rushed toward Yang San True Monarch like giant pythons.
The black and white double swords formed by the black and white streams of energy directly attacked the opponent.
