Immortal Taoist Lord: My Cultivation Have No Limits

Chapter 557: 172 Azure Prison Immortal Palace Plotting_1
 

Su Yu’s countenance darkened, his pupils shrinking. Azure Prison Immortal Palace? It’s that power again! Before, in the Earth Immortal Mansion, he had clashed numerous times with this Azure Prison Immortal Palace. Now, they were showing up again, proving to be the proverbial fly in the ointment!

The patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door had joined the Azure Prison Immortal Palace. He was now interfering in the attack on the Taixu Immortal Alliance led by the Great Moon Prefecture. These were developments Su Yu hadn’t anticipated.

Taoist Qingquan creased her brow and said, “In this battle, the Alliance Hierarch of Taixu didn’t show up. There are now rumors that the Hierarch of Taixu has fallen, killed by the hands of a mysterious Nascent Soul True Monarch.”

“That’s why those at the Core Formation stage in the Taixu Immortal Alliance hastily retreated, fleeing back to the Purple Light Prefecture in defeat.”

“With the fall of the Hierarch of Taixu, the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door found an ample opportunity. It seems that the remaining cultivators of the Taixu Immortal Alliance have all surrendered to the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door.”

“The key point is, there’s a Nascent Soul True Monarch beside the patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door. Even though my master doesn’t fear them, their combined assault can only be barely parried by him.”

“Given this, capturing the Purple Light Prefecture will have to be reconsidered.”

As for the matter of capturing the Purple Light Prefecture, Su Yu didn’t much care. After all, he wasn’t a disciple of the Great Moon Palace. This was a headache for people like Taoist Qingquan, Fairy Liu Xu, and Fairy Gu Yue.

What concerned him was that the patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door had surrendered to the Azure Prison Immortal Palace, and now the remnants of the Taixu Immortal Alliance had submitted to the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door.

Would the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door, or even the Azure Prison Immortal Palace, turn their hands against the Great Moon Prefecture?

Su Yu contemplated this for a long while, his brow still furrowed.

If it was only the patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door and the Nascent Soul True Monarch who was in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, they would be easy to deal with. He could even use the opportunity to eliminate the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door altogether.

But what about after the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door was removed?

If the Azure Prison Immortal Palace became infuriated and sent even stronger individuals, or should an unimaginably powerful force descend upon the Great Moon Prefecture, what then?

Though he was a disciple of the Earth Immortal Mansion, relying solely on it to protect the Great Moon Prefecture was clearly impossible.

The Earth Immortal Mansion couldn’t shield the Great Moon Prefecture at all times.

So after a moment of thought, Su Yu suppressed his impulse to behead the patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door and that Nascent Soul True Monarch in the early stage. He couldn’t act recklessly.

Otherwise, if things got out of control, the consequence might be something he would regret.

“I must not take any further action. I need to hold steady. If we are only facing the forces of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door and the leftover cultivators of the Taixu Immortal Alliance, the Great Moon Prefecture can handle it,” he thought.

“I must wait for the moment when I reach the Nascent Soul Realm, or even the Dividing Spirit Realm. Then, eliminating the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door will be a matter of course, even if they’ve joined the Azure Prison Immortal Palace.”

As Su Yu mulled over this, his brow gradually relaxed.

The news of the death of the Hierarch of Taixu was spreading far and wide. All the forces within the Great Moon Prefecture were astounded and in continuous discussion about it. Even the old master of the Great Moon Palace, Fairy Liu Xu was taken aback. Her countenance had become especially serious in those days.

After all, the Hierarch of Taixu, a True Monarch, was indeed an ‘old acquaintance’ of hers. The Hierarch of Taixu had previously been shouting about washing the Great Moon Prefecture in blood.

But in the blink of an eye, the Hierarch of Taixu had passed away and vanished into oblivion, becoming a former person?

Had retribution come so quickly?

In the ensuing month, the Great Moon Prefecture tried to verify the real news about the Taixu Immortal Alliance while also engaging in probe battles with the leftover forces of the Taixu Immortal Alliance and the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door.

Finding no opportunity, the Great Moon Prefecture was already thinking about retreating.

However, shortly after, another unexpected piece of news arrived.

Upon hearing of the death of the Taoist Hierarch of Taixu, the demonic Daoists of the Nine Souls Demon Ridge decided to march forth. They had already blood-washed an immortal city under the Taixu Immortal Alliance and were now heading towards the central alliance of Taixu.

This piece of news sent both the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door and the leftover cultivators of the Taixu Immortal Alliance in Chex Plume Immortal City into an uproar of surprise and rage.

The demonic Daoists of Nine Souls Demon Ridge had actually stabbed them in the back!

With a string of cultivators from the Great Moon Prefecture watching them like tigers, and a wolf at the back tearing the flesh of the Taixu Immortal Alliance, what should they do?

In the Chex Plume Immortal City, more than half of the cultivators from the eighteen divisions under the central alliance of the Taixu Immortal Alliance had already left, rushing back to safeguard their own territories.

The patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door creased his brow, comforted the Chex Plume Hierarchs who had come seeking help, told them to be patient while he discussed it, and then sent them all away.

He looked at the Nascent Soul True Monarch in the early stage, who was wearing a black robe and a bronze ghost mask on his face and said, “Why don’t you stay here, and I’ll go drive away the demonic head of the Nine Souls Demon Ridge?”

The man across from him gently shook his head and said, “There’s no need to defend these immortal cities. If it was before, taking over this Taixu Immortal Alliance would certainly not be a problem. It can be regarded as a force and territory that your Blood Phoenix Immortal Door stumbled upon.”

“But now, with the addition of the demonic head from the Nine Souls Demon Ridge, it’s not quite feasible for you to want to hold onto this Purple Light Prefecture anymore. It’s impossible to guard the front while fending off the rear—it’s not worth it.”

“So, my suggestion is to take what needs to be taken, along with the cultivators who are willing to leave, and return to the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door.”

“Let the leftover forces of the Taixu Immortal Alliance be fought over by the Great Moon Prefecture and those demonic Daoists of the Nine Souls Demon Ridge.”

“Leave some bait behind. They will fight harder, and then your Blood Phoenix Immortal Door can take advantage of the situation.”

He paused.

He looked at the patriarch of the Blood Phoenix Immortal Door and said, “Besides, what we need to do now is not to expand your Blood Phoenix Immortal Door or deal with the Great Moon Prefecture and the Nine Souls Demon Ridge.”

“Rather, we need to lure the Earth Immortal Mansion here, and let them take a big tumble!”
