To be precise, Mukoku's direction is at the northwest corner of Maple Forest City.

A large cache of weaponry is stored here, awaiting deployment when the main force arrives.

This place is heavily guarded. There is always a hundred-man contingent on rotation here at all times. This hundred-man contingent will be divided into ten smaller squads, each led by a cultivator.

Of course, this doesn't mean that the proportion of cultivators in Fenglin City's city guard is so high. It's because the importance of the armory is too great, so the dispatched general specially increased the proportion of elites.

In contrast, the City Lord's Mansion itself didn't have many cultivator guards, because City Lord Wei Que himself was the most intimidating force in Fenglin City.

At the same time, garrisoning at Wuku is also one of the daily tasks for Daoist disciples. Every day, two Daoist disciples are stationed here. The work isn't very rewarding, but it's stable and there's not much to do, so it doesn't interfere with meditation and cultivation. In fact, many people compete for this task, as it's easy to get started and those who are slow miss out.

The arsenal is divided into inner and outer sections. Such a high-level defense, of course, is not just to protect the mountains of common armor piled up in the outer warehouse.

In terms of spatial size, the inner storage room is extremely small, occupying only a tiny room in the middle of the entire armory.

But from the walls to the ceiling and even the floor, special arrays were engraved to prevent violent intrusions. If these arrays could not withstand an attack, a self-destructing array inside would be activated.

Various measures restrict entry to the inner storeroom, allowing only individuals with a special seal to enter through the main gate.

While the two disciples of the Daoist temple and the strongest squad of ten from the hundred-man team guarded before the inner treasury. Besides rotating shifts, they wouldn't move an inch.

Such a defense is almost foolproof. Especially today, being the day of the Three Cities Discourse, with a large number of city guard troops stationed within the city, no one foolish enough would come looking for death.

So when two men in city guard uniforms came and presented their identification, which was confirmed valid, the on-duty squad leader didn't think much of it and recited an incantation to open the inner storeroom door.

"Wait a moment." The disciple of the Chengdao Temple, who was sitting cross-legged on a meditation cushion to the right of the door, suddenly said.

He didn't intend to suspect these two people, but he felt that it was also necessary for him to take a look at Ling Yin, so as to be in accordance with his duty.

But the two who had already stepped inside the warehouse suddenly turned around.

A long black hair surged, like a needle piercing the void. One opened its bloody maw, spitting out a serpent of corrupted blood!

The disciple from the Chengdao Institute named Ting was almost immediately slapped in the face by the black hair, and he passed out. The squad leader of the city guard cultivator was engulfed by the filth blood and instantly reduced to white bones!

After just one round, only one cultivator remained outside the inner gate. The remaining nine city guards, while elite, were merely mortals with ordinary martial prowess.

“I just want to take a break…” The last remaining disciple of the City Dao Institute stroked his forehead, and in the next moment he leaped into the air. With a flick of his finger, a golden light arrow flew towards the enemy.

Ding et al.'s top-grade Taoist art, Golden Light Arrow.

...is instantaneous, indicating that this person has at least completed a small Zhoutian cycle, and their cultivation level is above the eighth rank.

He attacked while commanding, "Spread out and send the message! I'll hold them off here!"

Although he had no certainty of defeating the two who dared to attack the weapons stockpile of Maplewood City, at this moment, within Maplewood City, official forces undoubtedly held absolute dominance. As long as the news got out, no matter how many opponents came, they would only meet their end being wiped out.

Soldiers obey orders as a matter of course and certainly wouldn't delay. The nine soldiers immediately dispersed and fled.

Just at this moment, throughout the entire Maple Forest City, except for places like the martial arts arena where strong cultivators gathered, almost everywhere was in chaos.

>

They either set fires or committed murder, causing a great uproar.

Within the armory, those two attackers didn't hesitate. The attacker with black hair as his weapon stayed to fight, while the one spewing blood charged straight into the inner chamber.

>

They have a very clear goal! This thought flashed through the minds of the remaining disciples from Chengdao Institute present. With fingers flicking, sharp and continuous, he displayed golden arrows in a shower-like effect across the sky!

The golden arrows and black-haired arrows clashed, one sharp and the other enigmatic.

In the midst of their standoff, a long blade suddenly slashed through the air. The assailant with black hair collapsed with a thunderous roar, his body split in two.

>

Wei Yan grasped the long blade and strode into the inner storeroom.

A blood-tainted serpent lunged at him. He met it head-on, his long blade slicing through its body, splitting it in two. He surged forward between the severed halves, nearly face-to-face with the creature that spat bloody venom. With a single stroke, his blade pierced its heart!

But the attacker laughed strangely, his voice hoarse. With his last ounce of strength, he gleefully shouted, "The Soul Candle has been sent away!!"

Behind Wei Yan, the severed blood-tainted snake suddenly writhed. One half surged towards the Daoist disciple who had unleashed the golden light arrow, halting his movements. The other half, true to a serpent's nature, twisted and fled the scene!

There is no doubt that the treasure called the Candle of Hades, lies within this half-blooded serpent.

"Here, take the candle," Wei Yan pulled his long sword from the man's chest, his voice as cold as frost. "But everyone who came here today, I will kill them all."

At the same time, masters who had been lying in wait appeared everywhere within Maplewood City.

An assailant had just set fire to something, the next moment he was shot into a hedgehog, the flames were instantly extinguished.

On the other side, the bloody magic arts surged towards the passersby. Suddenly, waves churned and logs roared... A series of magic attacks smashed the attackers into pieces.

The Maple Forest City was well prepared, with almost all the masters dispatched. A potential disaster was immediately quelled.

"What happened" Hearing a few screams from afar, Jiang Wang immediately picked up Jiang An'an.

The old man surnamed Gui, with a hunchback, also instantly grasped Qingzhi's hand.

"There is no need to panic." From the stands, Wei Qijie raised his hand and pressed down. "The competition continues!"

Outside the martial arts arena, apart from the soldiers maintaining order, squads of city guards dispersed in all directions.

The spectators watching the competition weren't afraid at all. If Wei Qiji and Dong A were present, they could both get into trouble, so they wouldn't be safe anywhere they were.

Besides, these city guards were clearly on duty and wouldn't dare to leave their posts.

In the inner courtyard, Wei Yan strode out, almost roaring: "Shen Nanqi, why didn't you stop that blood snake just now Don't tell me you couldn't!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Blood Serpent fled with the Soul Lantern, its transfer swift and precise. With just a few hands, such a delicate object could vanish without a trace.

This also means that the "bait" Wei Quji took out has been eaten. They have to kill all the "fish".

The disciple of the Chengdao Institute named Shen Nanqi roared back in the same loud voice: "Do I not know what a Mingzhu is Who told me Since you had a plan and preparation beforehand, why didn't you tell us My fellow disciple died, died right before my eyes!"

His hand shimmered with golden light. If it weren't for this moment, he almost couldn't help but fling the Golden Arrow at Wei Yan's face.

“Our city guard brothers died more.” Wei Yan’s face was as dark as water.

He may not have wanted to explain, but before turning to leave, he added: "We don't know the infiltration status of those people. If we weren't discreet, they wouldn't appear."

Who Shen Nanqi still wanted to ask, but didn't say it. He knew he wouldn't get an answer.

At this point, he even figured it out. Perhaps being able to slack off here today was Wei Yan's arrangement. There wasn't anyone more suitable than him, Shen Nanqi, to be "free" and hold back a disciple of an opponent like this without having to play in the competition.

Fenglin City Dao Xun Ranking Fifth, Shen Nanqi.

I don't have a favorite person, but I dislike Wei Yan most.

Though he was also skilled in the art of gold, he was no match for Wei Yan. text you'd like translated!At that time, he was laughing at the stage, just treating it as a game. Even for Brother Jiang San at that time, that match also concerned his future and destiny...It is no...
