Chapter 771 - 270: Innate Five-Colored Earth (Part 4)
The Wushi Puppet spoke coldly.
With his statement, the others who were deterred by Liu Qixuan and Huang Lingshan’s Sword Intent also came to their senses.
They began to stir their own Spiritual Power, preparing to resist.
Fifteen against six, counting Shen Chongming from the Shen Family and Xu Zhan, it’s fifteen against eight, nearly a two-to-one situation.
Everyone here is a Golden Core, so they are not without strength to fight.
Seeing the other side’s battle intent already aroused, Liu Qixuan chuckled and said, "I thought this battle could have been avoided."
"Now it seems a fight is still necessary."
"Alright then, old companions, it’s time to stretch our bones."
With the fall of his voice, the people behind him from Cyan Ruo Sword House flashed and dispersed, drawing their swords.
Below.
Shen Wen’an’s figure landed on the top of a stone pillar, watching the ever-changing crimson glow before him absorbing all the surrounding mist, he suddenly was at a loss of what to do.
Earlier he had witnessed the Spiritual Transformation at Three Immortal Mountains.
Whether it was the Black Tripod or the strange little tree, he could not collect them at that time.
Now, how was he supposed to collect this glow transformed by a spirit?
After a bit of hesitation, he immediately took out a Jade Bottle from his Storage Bag.
A Spirit is a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object.
Innate Spiritual Qi is also a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object.
He wanted to try whether he could collect this glow transformed by the spirit using a method for gathering Innate Spiritual Qi.
Holding the Jade Bottle, Shen Wen’an immediately formed a Finger Technique, casting a Spiritual Power Net onto the glow before him that spanned about a yard.
In an instant, the Spiritual Power Net directly enveloped the glow!
Shen Wen’an was dumbfounded!
Was it this simple!?
After a brief daze, he dared not delay.
Above, the void had already erupted with a terrifying amount of Sword Intent and Technique waves; clearly, the Sword Immortals of Cyan Ruo Sword House had already engaged with those Southern Border Golden Core cultivators!
Changing his Finger Technique, Shen Wen’an cast the Spirit Gathering Skill onto the bottom of the Jade Bottle, then directly collected the crimson glow into the bottle.
He corked the bottle and put it back into his Storage Bag before his figure flashed and rushed toward the battlefield above.
Everything had been resolved, and it was time to settle scores with Huangsheng Sect.
In the void above, Liu Qixuan had already taken down the Wine Gourd from his waist, standing on a Wine Gourd that had enlarged several times, riding the waves in the Sword River suspended in the void, single-handedly facing two Golden Cores from Yin Corpse Sect.
The two Golden Cores were each commanding dozens of Corpses at the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm, fearlessly launching repeated charges at Liu Qixuan!
Liu Qixuan, meanwhile, had his left hand behind his back, his right hand forming a Sword Point, casually pointing at the void before him.
From the Sword River beneath him, long swords were being continuously formed and slashed indiscriminately at those corpses and the two Golden Core cultivators of Yin Corpse Sect!
It’s as if the Sword River contained endless Sword Intent, Liu Qixuan effortlessly battling two at once.
Elsewhere, Huang Lingshan also maintained a calm expression, her Heaven-Reaching Sword Bamboo behind her acting as if it had its own consciousness, each bamboo leaf, each bamboo twig easily slicing out streaks of green Sword Aura, forcing the Wushi Puppet and Celestial Fox Demon King to keep their distance.
As for Qiu Wufeng, who was the strongest among the six, he was even more terrifying.
Heavy Sword, no blade, attack through momentum.
The Heavy Sword in Qiu Wufeng’s hand swung with vast arcs, each swing carrying a mysterious force.
This force could easily affect the three Golden Core cultivators he was battling, making their bodies feel as if they were caught in a void quagmire, moving with difficulty.
Among these three, Monk Hong Jing originally had his sights set on Xu Zhan, intending to find a way to abduct him amidst the chaos.
But Qiu Wufeng gave him no chance.
Just as Xu Zhan was at a disadvantage in his clash with Hong Jing, Qiu Wufeng casually acted, forcibly dragging Monk Hong Jing into his own battle zone.
Earlier, against two Golden Cores, Qiu Wufeng was already at ease.
Now with Hong Jing dragged into the fight, battling one versus three still seemed to have no negative impact.
Xu Zhan, observing the battle from the sidelines, even felt that the reason Hong Jing and the others were able to hold their ground against Qiu Wufeng was solely because Qiu Wufeng hadn’t shown any intention to kill.
Otherwise, there might already have been casualties among the three.
Shen Wen’an’s figure appeared within the battlefield, seeing that the situation was still under control, he breathed a slight sigh of relief and said, "The spirit has already been collected by Shen, there’s no need for everyone to persist in ignorance."
The strength of the Sword Immortals from Cyan Ruo Sword House was indeed formidable, and they could easily fend off the crowd for now.
But prolonging things was ultimately meaningless.
Eventually, with too much Sword Essence depleted, they might even be at a disadvantage.
He announced that the spirit had been collected by him to make the Southern Border cultivators lose hope and stop the entanglement.
Sure enough, upon hearing his words, the many Southern Border Golden Core cultivators besieging Huang Lingshan and the others immediately glanced towards the stone pillar below.
Seeing the top of the stone pillar already empty, each of them, no matter how unwilling, could only choose to cease fighting.
With six Golden Core Sword Immortals joining the Shen Family’s side, their Golden Core combat power had reached a formidable nine!
Had the spirit not been collected, they might have tried something.
But now that Shen Wen’an had secured the spirit, escorted by these Sword Immortals, it was impossible for anyone present to intercept it.
Moreover, before coming to Yangnao Land, the mysterious figure had said that Yangnao Land contained more than one spirit.
Losing the first chance didn’t mean there wouldn’t be another opportunity.
None wished to exhaust their strength in such meaningless slaughter.
