These three, one is an extraordinary sword cultivator bearing a blood-stained wooden sword, having comprehended sword intent.
One is a witch with a smiling countenance but exuding demonic aura.
One is a taciturn, imposing figure of a man whose very body emanates oppressive presence.
These three hail from the three major forces: Seven-Star Sword Sect, Demonic Sky Sect, and Celestial Fire Pavilion.
These three sects stand alongside the Cyan Origin Sect as grand sects, and these three individuals are highly esteed genius disciples within their respective sects, boasting combat power that surpasses their peers at the Qi Refining level.
And the gathering of these three geniuses primarily aims for the assassination of ng Yan! To subsequently eliminate all of Cyan Origin Sect’s agents in Qingshi County and seize control.
Though they were unsure why such actions were required or what was so special about Qingshi County, they knew it was the command from the sect leadership, who demanded they must secure control of Qingshi County! And eliminate any disciple of Cyan Origin Sect or individual capable of wielding power there!
Facing this command, the three could only speculate that the sect leadership had discovered sothing in Qingshi County, secrets beyond the knowledge of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishnt-level disciples.
Either way, aside from following orders, they had no choice.
As for enemies above the Foundation Establishnt level, they weren’t too worried.
Because prior to this, the leadership of each sect had sworn the most stringent Heavenly Dao Oaths, wherein any violation of the agreed-upon combat contract, by any ans, would result in terrifying Heavenly Dao punishnts upon all levels of leadership, including the entire sect.
Add to that, each faction’s leadership seems to hold an ace up their sleeve, confident in becoming the ultimate victor, hence a simple negotiation was enough to finalize the combat contract.
Now, each sect’s leadership sits firmly in their towers, orchestrating their disciples’ execution of battle plans from above.
Faced with the loss of their Qi Refining and Foundation Establishnt disciples, they maintain their composure.
The only sacrifices are the disciples from each sect, and after such prolonged conflict, countless young disciples once full of aspirations for the Immortal Dao have beco re corpses, pawns, and casualties in a baffling war.
...
To those elders with millennia-long lifespans, the life and death of a batch of disciples are of little importance; young geniuses are things produced year after year.
As long as the population of the Human Race maintains its foundation, these things will never be in shortage! After several decades, they can once again spring forth by the masses!
Unless they are those extraordinary talents encountered once in a millennium, all must adhere to sect strategies!
This is where the cruelty lies.
During tis of stable developnt, sects prosper, and their subordinate territories flourish, naturally motivating the highest-level sect leadership to establish policies conducive to prosperity for maximum gain.
However, if sothing greatly surpasses those benefits, prosperity becos secondary; everything must concede to prioritize this sothing!
The current chaos in the Qingtian Realm epitomizes this.
Economic and industrial prosperity can be sacrificed. After all, at latest in a few decades or a hundred years, they can be reestablished through various policy asures; how long do the mories of lower-level cultivators last? As long as it isn’t excessive, a scapegoat can resolve it.
The lives of loose cultivators and family cultivators can be sacrificed. After all, there will always be new families and loose cultivators; they are like wheat seeds, sown in a suitable environnt, they will grow again, regardless of how harshly they were harvested before.
Even the lives of their own sect’s disciples can be sacrificed, because they, too, can grow anyti; ultimately, they are rely superior wheats.
Only upon reaching the Golden Core Stage or Nascent Soul Stage do cultivators qualify for ascension to the grand stage.
Below that, they are just pawns!
The prohibition of any form of large-scale slaughter within the Immortal Cultivation Realm largely stems from the imperative not to destroy the very soil that grows "wheat," a covenant jointly established by countless top-tier experts...
...
About an hour after the sword cultivator, body cultivator, and demon cultivator detected ng Yan’s whereabouts, Qi Ping, who was in a state of cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes.
His dispersing swarm had just transmitted a faint ripple.
This was due to the distance being too far for specific information to pass through, resulting only in a faint ripple.
However, given Qi Ping’s familiarity with the swarm, this slight ripple was sufficient.
Once the enemies were sowhat closer, Qi Ping alerted ng Yan.
"Brother ng, the enemy might be coming..."
"The enemy is coming? Where?"
ng Yan was startled upon hearing this, finding that he had noticed nothing, and the warning array he set up was undisturbed.
This was the most terrifying part!
"There’s still a distance, fast approaching, Brother ng, stay alert, I’ll hide first..."
"Alright! Thank you, Brother Qi, for the warning!"
ng Yan sighed with relief upon hearing this. If the enemy approached while he remained unaware, it would truly be frightening.
Acceptable, though, if they were still afar.
Yet secretly, he marveled at Qi Ping’s ability to pinpoint the enemy from such a distance, a detection prowess far surpassing his own.
Soon, the warning array set by ng Yan was triggered, followed by three figures swiftly appearing there.
"It’s actually you?"
Upon seeing the three figures, ng Yan’s gaze sharpened, becoming exceptionally cautious.
ng Yan knew all about them; they were geniuses from various sects, not inferior in reputation to himself.
"Oh? You don’t seem surprised at our arrival? Seems you intentionally leaked the information..." The woman from Demonic Sky Sect cloaked in demonic aura noticed the anomaly and spoke with a half-smile.
"But where’s your bravery? Surely your confidence lies beyond these arrays around? To thwart us three with such tactics, aren’t you being too naive? Rumor has it you’re so formidable, surely not just in this?" The towering Celestial Fire Pavilion disciple, exuding an overwhelming presence, spoke arrogantly.
As a body cultivator with a Fire Attribute Martial Body, his cultivation style was the sa: arrogant, suppressing with physique!
"Enough with the nonsense! Kill!"
Before the Seven-Star Sword Sect disciple bearing the wooden sword could finish, he directly attacked.
The blood-stained wooden sword behind transford into a streak of light, carrying a terrifying sword intent aid straight at ng Yan.
This sword was aid directly at ng Yan’s head!
The sword intent, filled with murderous aura, would decapitate even ng Yan if hit directly, despite his robust physique.
It was indeed the notorious Slaughter Sword Intent!
Yet, faced with the sword cultivator’s attack, ng Yan remained unperturbed, instantly activating a Tier One Perfection Interference Array that enveloped the entire scene!
In this array, without refining a special token, all would experience full interference; fewer enemies ant stronger interference!
As the array activated, the True aning of Fire surged within ng Yan, conjuring an equally Perfection-level Fla Burst Net before him.
Then, a trendous explosion sounded!
To Qi Ping’s surprise, under the terrifying explosive shock of the Fla Burst Net, the wooden sword’s assault was broken, its spiritual qi and sword intent nearly exhausted, forcing the Seven-Star Sword Sect disciple to retract the blood-stained wooden sword.
"Impressive! The Dao Heart Realm? Earth Core Fla?" Qi Ping was amazed.
It seed ng Yan had made astonishing advancents recently, not only fully grasping the Dao Heart First Realm but also refining the Earth Core Fla!
The mont Slaughter Sword Intent appeared, Qi Ping had sweated for ng Yan, but he effortlessly blocked it, leaving Qi Ping quite astonished.
"I hadn’t expected your powers to exceed the intelligence, yet if I drink your blood, my Life Sword will undoubtedly grow stronger..."
Even after his attack was thwarted, the Seven-Star Sword Sect disciple wasn’t overly shocked; rather, a wicked smile played on his lips, as his gaze erupted with fearso killing intent!
anwhile, the disciples from Demonic Sky Sect and Celestial Fire Pavilion intended to strike imdiately, but a man and a crow stood in their way.
Solemnly, Qi Ping positioned himself before the Celestial Fire Pavilion body cultivator, while Yaya confronted the witch from Demonic Sky Sect.
This was Yaya’s own request, claiming its current strength would suffice.
Qi Ping agreed, wanting to see how Yaya, after awakening as the Yang Fire Crow, tirelessly cultivating, refining Fire Attribute Spirit Honey, refining and absorbing the Power of the Great Sun, comprehending the True aning of Fire, and refining the Beast King’s Fla, fared against the Demonic Sky Sect’s genius witch with such resource accumulations!
