Chapter 1108

A sword light interrupting Old Monster Corpse Poison lets He Ruo suppress her poison and escape, but leaves Nian Er Ping Zhi facing him instead. Deeply poisoned, one arm corroded to bone and his face purple, Nian Er Ping Zhi still insists that Old Monster Corpse Poison cannot leave until a victor is decided. At rank six with only a portion of the Sword Saint true inheritance, he is no match for that rank seven expert. From a distance, Nian Er Fu, a space path Gu Immortal of deep cultivation, loots resources across the battlefield while secretly shielding Nian Er Ping Zhi from a fatal blow, striking Old Monster Corpse Poison dozens of times and wounding him in secret. The duel makes Nian Er Ping Zhi famous overnight. Word spreads that Nian Er tribe has produced an incredible genius. Nian Er tribe’s Huang Jin bloodline holds no outside territory and lives in blessed lands and grotto-heavens, so its Gu Immortals offend demonic path experts with fewer reservations than other super forces do, and few attackers can reach them there. ^{ch. 1108}

Old Monster Corpse Poison, who once joined Zombie Alliance as a living man before betraying it and evading every recapture attempt since, is furious and feels growing regret at being tied down here while others loot freely. Nian Er Fu finds an undefended round ball wooden eagle nest, but Hui Feng Zi, a rank seven wind path expert publicly the fastest in Northern Plains, snatches it first and moves on to another. Hui Feng Zi joined Shadow Sect before secretly submitting to Heavenly Court, a traitor identity still unexposed. The eagle battle ends, and every nest falls to the Gu Immortals. Shi Hou cheers at gaining the rank seven material domination copper, while Meng Ji rages at Hui Feng Zi for taking a nest Meng Ji claims as his own. Hui Feng Zi is very troubled, since he never touched that nest and someone who had already slipped inside seems to have made him take the blame. The nests hold huge quantities of rank seven metals and ores, and the Gu Immortals rejoice at the windfall while Hei tribe’s own Gu Immortals watch in silence, filled with anger, hatred and fear. ^{ch. 1108}

Hei Tie Sheng, a huge Hei tribe Gu Immortal, stands and accuses the first supreme elder of waiting on an ally whose plan all along was to trap them helpless while outsiders plunder their home. The first supreme elder argues that losing resources matters less than losing the ally’s help, since without it Hei tribe would have no place left in Northern Plains. Hei Tie Sheng shakes with intense sorrow rather than rage at this. More Hei tribe Gu Immortals rise to back him, reasoning that death is the worst case anyway. Hei Tie Sheng laughs, declares that thirty layers of defense would change nothing, and leads seven Hei tribe Gu Immortals out to fight, and the first supreme elder lets them go. ^{ch. 1108}

Hei tribe’s first layer of defense falls, its eagles dead, injured or captured. Rising higher, the Gu Immortals meet a second line of defense, dragon eagles whose stronger vitality and speed mark them as a different species, the resonance eagles. Qiao Dong, a righteous path Gu Immortal and first supreme elder of Qiao tribe, which Hei Cheng once pressured for trying to leave Hei tribe, reveals that these resonance eagles are his own tribe’s creation, not Hei tribe’s. Most righteous path Gu Immortals, the Huang Jin tribes’ supreme elders, judge him coldly for turning on the tribe that made him an immortal, though Liu Zhuan Shen, of Liu tribe, now stands visibly behind him as his new backer. A thunderous voice cries from afar that this traitor deserves death. ^{ch. 1108}
