The surrounding cultivators were unclear about the situation and momentarily unsure of what to do.
Yang Jishan's expression also darkened slightly.
He too began to feel puzzled.
The person secretly controlling the Corpse King turned out to be Mo Hua??
This young cultivator, the black hand behind the scenes?
The one who arranged the ritual to create the Taoist Demon?
How is that possible?
But if not him, how did he manage to override Lu Chengyun and cause the Corpse King's "betrayal"?
Just what is his identity?
A disciple of a righteous Dao's eminent figure, or... a Demon Path's Saint Heir?
In Yang Jishan's heart, a chill gradually set in, his expression becoming more hesitant.
Meanwhile, Lu Chengyun was still fleeing. His movement technique wasn't bad, and for a short time, Bai Zisheng couldn't do anything to him.
For a moment, the situation became a stalemate.
Just then, an intense Yin energy surged behind Lu Chengyun.
The Corpse King, whose chest had fully transformed into the shape of pale blue Spirit Pivot Formation Patterns, suddenly appeared behind him, its claws like the wind, grasping the back of Lu Chengyun's neck.
Its sharp nails firmly clutched Lu Chengyun.
The look on Lu Chengyun's face was one of panic as he struggled, unable to break free.
The Corpse King had completely lost control.
No, it was he who had lost control over the Corpse King.
The Corpse King was fully under Mo Hua's control!
After Mo Hua commanded the Corpse King to seize Lu Chengyun, he immediately said:
"Senior brother, kill him!"
Just as Bai Zisheng was about to act, Yang Jishan came to his senses, his expression one of shock as he hastily said:
"No!"
The emaciated old man also urgently said, "Don't kill!"
Bai Zisheng hesitated for a moment, looking toward Mo Hua.
Mo Hua's gaze turned icy, and he said in a deep voice:
"Kill!"
Caught between the Taoist Court cultivators and Mo Hua, Bai Zisheng would, of course, listen to his own junior brother.
With Lu Chengyun locked down by the Corpse King and the opportunity rare, he would naturally go all out, piercing through the renegade Lu Chengyun with a spear!
Bai Zisheng charged his spear, his aura ascending.
"Stop him!"
Experience more on empire
Yang Jishan said, before leading the charge to intercept Bai Zisheng.
The situation wasn't clear yet, and Lu Chengyun couldn't die.
If he died now and the Corpse King lost control, resurrecting the Taoist Demon, everything would be over.
The emaciated old man took out a Copper Coin, but before he could make his move, his expression changed dramatically.
Yang Jishan, who was beside him, also stopped in his tracks, his eyes becoming sluggish.
In front of them, Bai Zisheng's aura continued to escalate, spiritual power howling around him, with hints of dragon roars.
On his long spear, an awe-inspiring and majestic Azure Dragon phantom had also formed!
Dragon!
The emaciated old man said with a trembling voice, "Returning Dragon Spear technique?!"
Everyone heard and their faces changed.
"The technique of the Dragon... from Qian State's... that millennial great clan, the Bai Family?!"
The might of the Azure Dragon phantom and the influence of the Bai Family from Qian State caused those Foundation Building cultivators to feel a creeping dread, becoming utterly disoriented.
Mo Hua, too, opened his mouth in astonishment.
Bai Zisheng, dressed in white, with a gaze sharp as a sword, with the Azure Dragon phantom moving around him, appeared majestic and valiant.
He hadn't expected his junior brother to look so... handsome.
And when the Returning Dragon Spear's force was fully accumulated, Bai Zisheng's spiritual power surged around him.
Then, truly merging man with spear, the spear strike was like a dragon, and with a piercing dragon roar, he turned into a dragon shadow, surging forward.
