Boom!When the snowy glow that enveloped the Sect Master building shattered, it made a deep echoing sound.
Perhaps some noticed it but as cultivators of Green Cloud Pavilion were engulfed in terror, who could care about it!
The true attackers of Green Cloud Pavilion were actually not many.
Only four, in fact.
But each one was terrifying to an extreme.
A fat man, wielding a steel cleaver, didnât use it to hack at people, instead, he charged and rammed wildly forth.
Any who were struck by him, whether from the Tongtian Environment, the Ascending Dragon RealmâŚ
even the Inner Mansion Realm, would die upon impact.
Dense attacks of Dao Techniques landed on him, his flesh was torn and flew about, making him appear ferociously grotesque, occasionally roaring in pain to vent his suffering.
But what was truly horrifying wasâŚ
many casters who launched their attacks at him would mysteriously die right after their techniques hit!
Some bled from every orifice, others were torn limb from limb, or their flesh disintegrated.
The great Sect Protector, Feng Ming, stood frozen after launching a powerful Dao Technique at the fat man, blood streaming from all his orifices, dead.
Afterward, nobody dared to stand in the way nor attack the badly wounded fat man as he rampaged back and forth at the Green Cloud Pavilion entrance.
He chased the cultivators all over the mountain almost on his own.
Chasing and yelling, those pursued had their souls scared out of their bodies.
A woman, wearing a mask without facial features, moved in bizarre ways, her form like a ghost or specter, flitting left and right.
Every time she appeared, a cultivator would die.
Inescapable, unavoidable, she draped death as easily as the deep night.
A young man with blood-colored eyes, holding a short dagger, would gouge out the heart of anyone he killed.
Many Green Cloud Pavilion disciples were so petrified by his killing aura they collapsed without even engaging in combat.
The one who seemed the most normal was a skinny man who didnât exhibit any terrifying actions, but it was he who firmly blocked Chi Dingfang, the Sect Master of Green Cloud Pavilion, leaving him unable to attend to anything else.
The whole entrance of Green Cloud Pavilion was trapped within a ghost mist formation, and within the thick black mist, the sounds of wailing ghosts lingered.
None of the Green Cloud Pavilion cultivators who ran into the ghost mist in their panic ever came out again.
Green Cloud Pavilion was not without defenses, and would not simply watch as the enemy easily set up their formation at the entrance.
Therefore, the power fluctuations of the ghost mist array were not very strong; it must have been hastily constructed with an Array Plate of not very high rank.
In fact, a single Outer Building Environment powerhouse could have enough strength to break it.
However, those attacking Green Cloud Pavilion targeted the Outer Building powerhouses of Green Cloud Pavilion right away.
Sect Protectors Chi Lu and Feng Ming died in battle one after another.
The only Sect Protector from outside their lineage, Zhang Yuliu, was being chased around by the fat man, with no spare energy to pay attention to anything else.
The remaining Sect Protector, Feng Yue, was merely organizing the Sect disciples in a tough defense.
Looking at the entire battlefield at the entrance,
It was not a battle of equals but a bloody massacre.
Just four people had trapped and were slaughtering the entire Green Cloud Pavilion.
Jiang Wang broke through the protective glow of the Sect Masterâs building with one strike and stepped into the core area of Green Cloud Pavilion.
The outer battles had nothing to do with him; he and White Cloud Child hurried to search for the lost structure of Cloud Top Fairy Palace.
Ignoring the classically transcendent layout of the pavilion, the eye-catching array of Magic Artifacts and Prime Stones, and even the shelves of Cultivation Techniques,
What he wanted was only Green Cloud Pavilion!
There were three floors in the entire Sect Master building, each more exquisite than the last.
However, after searching all three, he still came up empty.
White Cloud Child remained confused and did not sense the presence of the lost building.
Jiang Wang confirmed he had searched every corner; he even found hidden chambers.
The Cultivation Techniques and Magic Artifacts stored in the Sect Master building truly warranted the strictest protection.
But the lost building of Cloud Top Fairy Palace was indeed missing.
Could it be that the lost structure, sharing the same name as Green Cloud Pavilion, was already lost to history?
Jiang Wang did not allow himself to be puzzled and frustrated, but instead, he decisively left the Sect Masterâs tower and headed for the next planned location.
He was certain that Green Cloud Pavilion had not been lost; the once glorious Cloud Top Fairy Palace must have some means to protect the possibility of the fairy palaceâs revival.
Despite several relocations, the Lingkong Hall had never lost its structure.
There should be even less reason for Green Cloud Pavilion to be lost.
If not here, then elsewhere.
If the missing structure of Green Cloud Pavilion still existed, the White Cloud Child would surely sense it and would not be able to resist the attraction of Cloud Top Fairy Palace.
That left only the core courtyards of the Feng and Chi Branches.
Jiang Wang felt the battle in the front mountain from afar, estimated how much time he had left, and flew quickly through the air.
The Feng and Chi Branches each had a core courtyard near the mountain gate of Green Cloud Pavilion, representing the glorious history of both surnames.
But only after becoming the Sect Master could one move into the courtyard.
Therefore, one of the two courtyards was always empty.
Having lived in Green Cloud Pavilion for over half a month, Jiang Wang was thoroughly familiar with the terrain, and he made a beeline straight into the deserted courtyard at the top speed.
This was the core courtyard of the Feng surname.
It was expansive with a straightforward layout.
But no sooner had he pushed open the gates than he saw a familiar figure in a flustered turn of the head â Feng Ming!
It seemed he had just hidden here; he looked panicked, his breath in disarray.
âSonghai!â Upon seeing Jiang Wang, he breathed a sigh of relief, âYou escaped too?â
He immediately became frantic again, âWhat should we do?
Thereâs a big array outside, we might not be able to escape, we could all die this time.â
âWerenât you at the frontline?â Jiang Wang frowned.
âIâve just finished discussing with my father, and it still takes time to work through relationshipsâŚ
Never mind that,â Feng Ming gasped for breath several times, âSonghai, do you have any idea what we should do now?â
He and Feng Yue could have already left, perhaps to be intercepted on the road like Chi Lu.
Thinking like this, he couldnât tell if not leaving was a stroke of good or bad luck.
âAt this point, we can only do our best and leave the rest to fate,â Jiang Wang shook his head, âWhat can I do?â
âNo, no, no.â Feng Ming clutched at him like a lifeline, agitated, âYouâre not simple!
I know youâre not simple!â
He moved a few steps closer to Jiang Wang, his voice even pleading, âIn consideration of how I havenât treated you too badly, donât escape alone.
Songhai, help me, help me escape!â
In this world, who is a fool?
Even someone like Feng Ming, who had little experience with hardships and inflated with his own bragging, was not always as impulsive and naive as he often seemed.
âYu Songhaiâ was using him, but wasnât he also using Yu Songhai?
Since meeting Jiang Wang, all he had provided was an introduction into Green Cloud Pavilion, but with Jiang Wangâs help, his influence grew day by day, gaining more and more esteem from Feng Yue and the other elders.
When calculatedâŚ
it really wasnât a bad deal.
Jiang Wang said nothing, simply bypassed him and kept walking inside.
Pressed for time, he only wanted to retrieve Green Cloud Pavilion and then find an opportunity to escape; he had no time to continue indulging Feng Ming.
âYou came to Green Cloud Pavilion with a purpose, right?â
Feng Ming suddenly called out from behind him, âYouâre secretly searching for something, arenât you?
What do you want?
I can help you, as long as you can save me!â
He had underestimated himâŚ
Jiang Wang turned around abruptly, âHow can you help me?â
