Chapter 393

Xiao Mang commands the righteous path on his rank five cultivation, but his many assaults on the fog have returned in failure, with a huge loss. His call for another wave draws few volunteers, since the Gu Masters have only one life. He wants an enslavement path Gu Master to drive beasts as cannon fodder and asks for Wu clan’s Wu Shen Tong, who is missing. Wu Gui and Zhang San San of the demonic path are also absent. Xiao Mang wonders whether one of the three controls the dogs. A Wan clan Gu Master laments that Wan Li Xiong Feng is absent, or his clan’s divine wind would blow the fog away. Tao Zi asks what to do while the demonic faction treats the righteous side as a joke. ^{ch. 393}

Xiao Mang has everyone move back and stores energy in his aperture with purple crystal primeval essence. He feeds it into Extreme light Gu, My will Gu and Bright spear Gu for the killer move My Glorious Spear. A spear of light 1.8m long and 0.6m thick shoots into the fog and uses up sixty percent of his purple crystal essence. It explodes on the mound, vaporising thousands of dogs and leaving a crater. The shock makes Fang Yuan and Feng Tian Yu vomit blood and interrupts their refinement. Bai Ning Bing knows a direct hit would break her defensive Gu within a second and a few more hits would ruin the formation, but she follows Fang Yuan’s instructions and sends dogs to fill the crater. ^{ch. 393}

With the fog gone, everyone sees over ninety thousand dogs packed on the mound in an iron bucket defense. Each group of lightning symbol dogs, chrysanthemum akita dogs, hedgedogs, steel armor dogs and Yin dogs has over five thousand, with many dog kings among them. Ordinary dogs form the outer defense and the five great mountain dogs, heavy tai, green hua, smoke song, light heng and star heng, form the inner circle. Several hundred hairy men guard the hall entrance as the last line. Everyone stares greedily at the bronze hall, yet the dog army deters them all, and Mo Wu Tian senses that the time for cooperation has come. ^{ch. 393}

Mo Wu Tian steps before Xiao Mang and proposes cooperation. Xiao Mang had wanted it but feared rejection and damage to his reputation, and he answers with a snort, neither cold nor hot. Mo Wu Tian reads the snort and, extremely disdainful of such hypocrisy, proposes attacking from front and back in fifteen minutes, and Xiao Mang nods. He tells the demonic side that he agitated Xiao Mang into a competition to reach the hall first. Xiao Mang tells the righteous side that he rejected the demonic path and will strike while it bears some of the pressure. ^{ch. 393}

Fifteen minutes later the two sides attack from two directions, and Bai Ning Bing watches through the land spirit’s shared vision. Yi Chong charges like a fearsome shark, and none of the dogs can block him. Yi Huo turns into a god of fire, thinking he would definitely be able to change his surname to Shang if he gets the treasure and succeeds in his mission. Kong Ri Tian laughs and turns into a rain of petals, while Li Xian conceals himself with a rank five Gu and moves ahead in secret. Tao Zi offers his healing, and many Gu Masters gather to him. Yan Jun turns into a hollow shadow, and a dog king passes straight through him. The Gu Masters display all their abilities in chaos, and Bai Ning Bing can barely cope with such a huge number of opponents and starts to fluster. ^{ch. 393}
