Chapter 275 The Advantage Lies with the Qingyun Sect
The communication talisman in Sect Master Lu's hand rang. It was from the White-Faced Ape: "Sect Master Lu, a flying ship has passed by my territory."
Two days later, another communication talisman in Sect Master Lu's hand rang. It was from Qing Shi: "Sect Master Lu, the Nangong family's flying boat passed by my territory. It flew quite close, and I saw their clan emblem."
Two days later, Venerable Qinghao said softly, "They've arrived."
On another flying boat, the Azure Nether Saint also said softly, "They've arrived."
Sect Master Lu was in high spirits and said to Venerable Qinghao, "Uncle-Master, it's up to you now."
Qinghao nodded, walked to the cannon platform, and shouted softly, "Fire!"
Both airships simultaneously activated their spirit energy cannons.
Elder Nangong, who was flying at high speed, felt a little relieved after passing behind the carp.
Before he could catch his breath, he saw flashes of light appear on both sides of the flying boat.
Then, their airship was hit by two heavy blows.
Then two more blows, two more blows...
Even with Elder Nangong II activating the airship's defensive array to its maximum, it couldn't withstand the continuous bombardment.
He shouted urgently, "Fight back! Fight back! Fight back now!"
However, the Nangong family's flying boat, which had already lost the initiative, was trembling all over from the spiritual energy cannons. The defensive array was showing more and more cracks under the continuous bombardment, and these cracks were increasing and expanding rapidly.
The Nan family members inside the flying boat were unsteady on their feet, unable to control their direction, let alone know the exact location of the incoming spiritual energy cannon.
Qinghao and Qingming were two Tribulation-Transcending Saints specially chosen by Sect Master Lu for his exceptionally accurate spiritual energy attacks.
Having already had extensive experience with artillery fire, the two knew they couldn't afford to give their opponent a chance to retaliate.
So the two of them just piled up the spirit stones on the cannon platform until it was full, and fired one shot after another.
Elder Nangong was an extremely experienced combatant. Seeing the spiritual energy cannons raining down from both sides, he knew that the flying boat could not be saved.
He decisively moved to the stern of the airship, intending to open the tail hatch and escape first.
Just as he opened the tail hatch of the airship, a lightning talisman exploded on the tail hatch door.
The tail hatch was blown up, and turbulent air currents rushed into the airship.
The entire airship lost its balance and swayed precariously high in the sky.
Upon seeing the Thunder Explosion Talisman, Elder Nangong the Second knew that they had been intercepted and killed by the Qingyun Sect. He was furious and cursed, "Qingyun Sect, damned Qingyun Sect, I will not let you get away with this!"
His answer came from the dense sound of thunderbolts emanating from outside the airship.
The fierce lightning struck the already damaged airship, making the entire airship even more badly damaged.
Several Nangong family cultivators with slightly lower cultivation levels were already mentally unstable from being struck by lightning, and blood seeped from the corners of their mouths.
With the bombardment of spirit energy cannons and lightning, the Nangong family's flying boat finally disintegrated with a loud bang.
Two hundred Nangong family cultivators were blasted out of the flying boat.
Without turning his head, Elder Nangong released all the spirit beasts as the flying boat disintegrated, and at the same time crushed a teleportation talisman to escape.
Since Sect Master Lu was besieging the Nangong family's flying boat, he must have made perfect arrangements.
Four cultivators from the Qingyun Sect, who had already undergone tribulation, led a group of Qingyun Sect disciples to set up a Four Symbols Formation, completely surrounding the cultivators and spirit beasts of the Nangong family.
Blood trickled from the corner of Elder Nangong's mouth, his robes were torn, and his hair was disheveled. He brandished his beast-taming whip and roared furiously, "Kill! Kill! Kill them all!"
Despite their physical discomfort, the Nangong family cultivators disregarded the pills they had ingested and, under the cover of their spirit beasts, hurriedly charged towards the Qingyun Sect cultivators.
The Qingyun Sect cultivators, who had been waiting in ambush and had set up their formation, with the faint phantoms of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise floating behind them, raised their magical weapons and shouted, "Kill!"
In just one round, the Nangong family lost dozens of disciples and spirit beasts.
Elder Nangong's hands trembled with anxiety.
He was afraid.
He was afraid he would die.
He secretly crushed another teleportation talisman, and with a sudden drop, he thought that even if he was injured, he should escape the Four Symbols Formation and flee first.
But his teleportation talisman shattered again, leaving him unresponsive.
Elder Nangong's heart sank further, and he lost the will to fight back.
As the Four Symbols Formation unleashed another devastating attack, resulting in the loss of dozens more disciples and spirit beasts from the Nangong family, he grew increasingly anxious and lost his composure.
Sect Master Lu and Qing Hao, who had used spiritual energy cannons to shatter the Nangong family's flying boat in the distance, also gathered around and formed a Hunyuan Formation around the Four Symbols Formation.
The Qingyun Sect cultivators, who were operating the Four Symbols Formation, launched increasingly fierce attacks.
Over the years, when the cultivators of the Qingyun Sect went out to train, most of them had dealings with the Beast Taming Sect, and most of them suffered losses.
Having finally gotten a chance for revenge, he naturally wanted to seize it and get the revenge he deserved.
With the activation of the Four Symbols Formation, only three of the Nangong family's two hundred cultivators remained alive.
They still have three spirit beasts left.
Qinghao and Qingming also joined the battle.
The six Transcending Tribulation Saints of the Qingyun Sect, with the help of the Four Symbols Formation, fought against one Transcending Tribulation Saint, two Mahayana Saints, and three eighth-tier spirit beasts from the Nangong family.
The advantage lies with the Qingyun Sect.
Soon, the two Mahayana cultivators of the Nangong family died.
Next, Elder Nangong and his eighth-tier spirit beast also perished.
The last eighth-tier spirit beast also had its beast core extracted under the siege of the six Transcending Tribulation cultivators of the Qingyun Sect.
Elder Nangong of Luofeng Town felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and a sharp pain in his consciousness, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He ran in a panic towards Elder Nangong's cultivation room: "Big brother, big brother, something bad has happened! Second brother, he..."
The First Elder of the Nangong family opened the door to the cultivation room with a pale face and raised his hand to stop the Third Elder of the Nangong family from saying what he was about to say: "Third brother, I understand."
Elder Nangong said in a panic, "Then what should we do?"
We must avenge our second brother. Yes, we must avenge our second brother.
I sent a message to the sect, saying that the sect must take responsibility for this matter.
"We got into this mess because we were trying to capture the Phoenix Divine Beast for the sect. Yes, we got into this mess because we were trying to capture the Phoenix Divine Beast for the sect, and the sect must take responsibility."
Elder Nangong lowered his head and remained silent.
He knew it.
The Nangong family has been arrogant and domineering in the sects for years. Although they have done a lot for the Beast Taming Sect, they have also taken too many advantages from it.
Now that the Nangong family is in trouble, other families will take advantage of the situation and crush them.
As for avenging the deceased Second Elder of the Nangong family and the Nangong family members...
Haha, I'll definitely report it.
However, how to report it is not up to the Nangong family.
Especially now, four of the Nangong family's eight eighth-tier spirit beasts have died, two of their three Tribulation Transcending cultivators have died, and the two who are still alive are seriously injured.
The most important thing for the Nangong family right now is not revenge, but maintaining their position.
Unfortunately, the third brother couldn't have imagined these things.
