Chapter 928: Chapter 23 Rescue_2 Chapter 928: Chapter 23 Rescue_2 âThere are twenty-seven Nascent SoulsâŚ
nine at the late stage, seven at the middle stage, eleven at the early stage,â
Upon hearing this, Wang Baâs mind quickly calculated, and he nodded slightly.
With more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators from the Kingdom of Immortals suddenly absent, the balance of power quietly underwent a reversal.
This time, led by Tang Ji, aside from the two Nascent Souls left to defend the Chen State, there were a total of eleven Infant of the Ten Thousand Facets Sect cultivators.
Among them, Tang Ji was the only one at the Fulfillment-stage Nascent Soul.
There were five at the Nascent Soul later stage who had not yet reached Fulfillment.
The remainder included two at the Nascent Soul middle stage, and three at the Nascent Soul early stage.
...
Adding Song Dongyang, also at the Fulfillment-stage Nascent Soul, and the five middle-stage Nascent Soul Enforcers he led,
The total came to seventeen Nascent Souls.
Given the foundational depth and realm advantage of the All Appearance Sect cultivators, even if they were outnumbered, they should be able to resolve the battle quickly before reinforcements from the Kingdom of Immortals could arrive.
And even if they couldnât win quickly, retreating should not be too difficult.
Thinking this, Wang Ba still hadnât completely let down his guard.
Without successfully retrieving Song Dongyang and the others, the mission couldnât be considered a success.

He spoke softly,
âElder, be careful not to draw the people from Song State or Qiao State over here.â
Cultivators from the Kingdom of Immortals were surely still on the Qiao State border, so caution was necessary.
Tang Ji also realized the shift in the balance of power and could not hide the joy on his face,
âDonât worry!
Unless theyâre at Immortal Ascension, they wonât detect me before Iâve already noticed them.â
As he spoke, the flickering light quickly disappeared into the mountain gorges on the land of the Song State.
âŚ
âTwenty-seven Nascent SoulsâŚâ
Six streaks of light zipped across the sky.
Song Dongyang, in the leading light, swept his Spiritual Sence over those behind him.
The feeling in his heart, compared to earlier, was a complete turnaround.
Although twenty-seven Nascent Souls was still a substantial number, compared to the number of Nascent Souls from before, the pressure was significantly less.
Of course, reduced pressure did not mean there was none left.
If they allowed these twenty-seven Nascent Souls from the Kingdom of Immortals to join forces against them, their group of six would probably not last very long.
Fortunately, Tang Ji had already brought reinforcements.
âI didnât expect the Rende Hall members to also come.
With so many fellow disciples, even if we had to confront those clerics from the Kingdom of Immortals head-on, it would be enough.
Even if the Immortal Ascension elders didnât come, it wouldnât be much of an issue,â
âHowever, once we reach Hutou Pass, we must first send these cultivators from the Qi Dynasty over.
As long as they are safe, this mission will be a huge success!â
Song Dongyang thought rapidly in his heart,
Noticing that the distance between each other was quickly closing.
His heart tightened slightly,
âTwo thousand li leftâŚâ
At the same time, he immediately activated the Spirit Rhinoceros Stone.
âJunior Brother Tang, how far are you now from the Teleportation Array?â
The Spirit Rhinoceros Stone immediately transmitted Tang Jiâs voice,
âSoon, just under three thousand li left!â
Hearing this distance, Song Dongyangâs heart relaxed slightly,
Then without further distractions, he hurriedly sped towards Hutou Pass.
But it wasnât long before he noticed those clerics from the Kingdom of Immortals behind him were closing in substantially.
In particular, several clerics whose heads flew out and quickly zoomed toward them, dragging their bodies at extreme speeds, overtook the others and approached the six of them rapidly.
âFlying Head LineageâŚâ
Song Dongyangâs heart sank slightly.
The cultivation base of this lineageâs cultivators was not high, mostly in the early or middle stages of Nascent Soul, but their speed was exceptionally fast, even surpassing his own Fulfillment-stage speed!
If caught up by them, even with slight interference, it would seriously slow down the groupâs progress.
By that time, if the other clerics of the Kingdom of Immortals swarmed them, the six of them might not be able to wait for Tang Ji and the others to arrive.
But to stop and intercept at this moment was not a good idea either.
He could only grit his teeth and focus entirely on continuing towards Hutou Pass.
It wasnât much longer before,
An anxious voice of an Enforcer suddenly came,
âHall Master!
Theyâve caught up!â
Song Dongyangâs heart shocked, and he quickly swept his Spiritual Sence behind him,
Only to see a huge head, as large as dozens of feet with hair wild like whips, opening its yellow, rotten-toothed mouth wide, biting at those Qi Dynasty cultivators!
Behind this gigantic head, numerous oddly colored blood vessels stretched back to tiny bodies several li away.
It looked bizarre and out of place,
But Song Dongyangâs heart sank,
âOne thousand one hundred li leftâŚâ
Yet he knew that they probably wouldnât be able to go any further,
That moment, there was not a hint of regret or fear in his heart, his figure paused slightly, then he turned around abruptly and casually pointed a finger!
The huge head that was about to bite down onto the cultivators from the Qi Dynasty suddenly had a premonition of imminent danger,
And it tried to dodge hurriedly,
But then, in the bright daylight sky, a starlight unexpectedly shot straight down, with the inevitability of thunder, striking the gigantic head!
The head didnât even have a chance to make a sound before the starlight turned it into a handful of dustââŹÂŚ
However, what was strange was that the numerous blood vessels behind the head quickly retracted to the body behind and twisted on top of the body, rapidly growing a new head about the size of a palm,
Yet now, on the small head, there was an expression full of terror and shock!
It was this pause that allowed the clerics from the Kingdom of Immortals, who were around, to instantly cross the distances and surround Song Dongyang and six others, as well as the Qi Dynasty cultivators wrapped in mana, completely.
