Chapter 330 Battle of the Iceberg
Zhu Chenglong is at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm and is about to break through to the Golden Core realm.
He suddenly slashed out with his sword, and before the man could react, his wrist was severed with a "crack".
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all retreated.
After all, that person was a disciple of a major sect, yet Zhu Chenglong chopped off his wrist without a word.
"You Qingyuan Sect are going too far!"
The man clutched his wrist tightly, his face ashen, and screamed in trembling pain.
"I'll count to three. If you don't step down by the time I finish, don't blame me for chopping off your head!"
But Zhu Chenglong raised his long sword again.
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they all retreated from the platform. The man's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot; he stood there for a moment, then turned and left.
This is outrageous! This is absolutely outrageous!
Even Shen Rugo, who was standing at a distance, was furious.
However, the Xuan Tian Sect, Piao Miao Peak, and others all had indifferent expressions, as if all of this was perfectly normal.
Even the female disciple from Hundred Flowers Valley named Zhou Ruoyun didn't utter a single word.
Shen Rugo grew increasingly disgusted with the ten major sects.
"Now that the terms have been agreed upon, the four factions shall join forces, and no one shall hold back. Otherwise, they shall automatically withdraw and have no right to participate in the distribution of the Nine-Petaled Snow Lotus!"
A disciple of the Xuantian Sect looked up at the pure white snow lotus atop the mountain peak and said in a deep voice.
Before he finished speaking, he rushed up the mountain.
As he moved, everyone from the four major sects also transformed into streaks of light and rushed upwards.
There were more than 20 people from the four major sects. The Qingyuan Sect had the most members, including four peak Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Seeing more than twenty people rushing toward the snow lotus like monkeys, getting closer and closer, fifty zhang, thirty zhang, twenty zhang!
The eagle circling high in the sky kept a close eye on the group.
When the group was still fifteen feet away from the nine-petaled snow lotus, the eagle suddenly swooped down from the sky, its huge wings flapping violently.
With this fan, it was as if a typhoon had passed through, and the air formed a fierce whirlwind that swept wildly towards everyone.
The mountain peaks were steep and covered in ice and snow, with absolutely no place to set foot.
These twenty-odd people were all at or above the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, clinging to the ice with their powerful magic.
However, due to the sudden impact of the eagle, three people were instantly blown off by the strong wind and fell from the sky.
Amid screams, it plunged into the valley, and only after a long while, the sound of it crashing to the ground could be heard.
These three people died, they just fell to their deaths?
Those watching from afar were all taken aback.
The three people who fell were weak and none of them had any flying magic items.
Shen Rugo quietly came to the edge and looked down into the valley, which was hundreds of feet deep.
"Let's go together!"
Seeing the eagle swoop down and quickly soar into the sky, one man was furious.
Immediately, weapons, magical artifacts, and runes all flew towards the eagle.
A single cry echoed through the heavens!
The eagle is a spirit beast equivalent to the peak of the Golden Core stage, and it has long been sentient.
Seeing the weapons and magical artifacts coming at it, the massive body did a somersault in the air, quickly dodging the attacks, and then swooped down again.
This time, it not only flapped its wings violently to create a gale, but also pecked at the person rushing to the front.
At the very front was a Foundation Establishment Peak disciple from Misty Peak.
"Beast, die!"
With a wave of his hand, a flying sword appeared in his hand and slashed towards the eagle's beak.
"Clang" sound!
The sword struck the eagle's massive beak, sending sparks flying.
To his shock, the eagle's beak didn't stop for a moment, but his arm went numb and the longsword flew out of his hand.
"not good!"
With a shout, the man leaped into the air, and a flying sword appeared—his natal magic weapon, capable of short-term flight.
However, before the flying sword could land at his feet, his head exploded, and he was pecked by the eagle's beak.
His body, along with the flying sword, plummeted downwards.
"Senior Brother Zhou!"
The other disciples of Misty Peak shouted in unison.
This Zhou Shixiong is their leader and the strongest among them all. Even the four Foundation Establishment Peak cultivators from Qingyuan Sect are slightly inferior to him.
Even such a creature couldn't withstand a single beak from an eagle, and was pecked in the head and died.
Everyone was filled with fear.
"Beast, die!"
Suddenly, someone raised their hand and threw out a rune—an Ice Hammer Rune.
However, this wasn't a level four rune bought from Shen Ruge; it was just a regular level three rune.
Before the ice hammer could even reach the eagle, it was swept away by the eagle's wing and instantly flew backward, reflecting off and hitting the disciple on the head.
Another scream rang out, and the disciple's head exploded, sending him plummeting into the valley.
This caused not only those on the mountaintop to tremble with fear, but also those watching from below to secretly rejoice, thankful that they hadn't rushed up earlier.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Chenglong suddenly nodded slightly to the three people beside him.
The three understood each other and suddenly slowed down their climbing, falling behind.
"A nine-petaled snow lotus that is two hundred thousand years old is of immeasurable value. All of us here at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, no matter who we are, as long as we obtain a single petal of the snow lotus, we can definitely break through to the Golden Core stage!"
Fellow disciples, I hope you will not hold back and attack together! Those with flying magical artifacts, please use them as soon as possible!
At this moment, a member of the Xuantian Sect suddenly shouted.
The remaining people, who had initially intended to retreat, gritted their teeth upon hearing this. Instantly, more than a dozen figures took to the air, riding on various flying magical artifacts, and soared into the sky.
The eagle let out a high-pitched cry and crashed its massive body into the crowd, every feather shimmering with dazzling light.
Weapons and magical artifacts struck its wings one after another, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
But the eagle ignored everything and its massive body crashed into the group of people who were standing on magical artifacts. At the same time, it opened its huge beak and pecked at them one by one.
In an instant, people and horses were thrown about in the air, and figures fell one after another. Three people even had their heads pecked open and fell down.
In just one round, four more people fell.
The eagle was also severely injured, covered in blood.
Although it is a spirit beast, it is not human after all. It has not learned any magic or supernatural powers, and its only means of attack is to rely on its powerful body to withstand attacks.
"Senior Brother Zhu Chenglong, why didn't any of you make a move?"
At this moment, Zhou Ruoyun suddenly screamed.
With her shout, the remaining dozen or so people, including the other disciples of Misty Peak, all looked at Zhu Chenglong and his group of four, their faces full of confusion.
"Rest assured, everyone. The eagle will surely die, and the nine-petaled snow lotus must be ours!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Chenglong suddenly looked at the three people beside him.
The four of them soared into the air at the same time, each standing on a prayer mat.
Just as the four of them soared into the air, each of them raised their hand and unleashed a rune.
"A mid-grade level four rune!"
The others immediately perked up and shouted in unison.
The day before yesterday, when Shen Rugo sold runes, everyone witnessed the power of the runes.
A mid-grade level 4 rune, possessing the attack power of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator.
Among the four runes, some were wind blade runes, some were vajra runes, some were explosion runes, and one was a fire rune, which instantly rushed towards the eagle.
"These are my runes?"
Although Wu Yuanshan and Wu Xuemei were vicious, they didn't keep all the runes for themselves?
Shen Rugo understood clearly; she now had a full understanding of her runes.
Suddenly, a loud shout rang out: "Oh no!"
He casually took out a talisman and slapped it on his body, his figure instantly flying towards the nine-petaled snow lotus at the peak.
