“Three elite disciples from enemy sects?”
Seeing this ssage, Qi Ping’s eyes couldn’t help but sharpen.
Given ng Yan’s combat power, anyone he called an ‘elite disciple’ was definitely no simple opponent.
It was even possible their combat strength rivaled ng Yan’s.
And Qi Ping had clearly witnessed ng Yan’s power firsthand: formidable physical strength, profound spiritual energy, coupled with ng Yan’s comprehension of Fire Intent, his Dao Heart’s artistic conception, and his master-level hamr techniques—his combat prowess among Qi Refining cultivators could be described as terrifying.
If three individuals with similar power ca at once, even Qi Ping would have a headache.
No wonder ng Yan had been so cautious recently, even forced to abandon his base. Being surrounded and hunted by three such opponents, even with the advantage of familiar terrain, the probability of being killed was not small. It was understandable he needed help this ti.
“It seems the war between the Azure Origin Sect and the other sects is gradually approaching a fever pitch. Otherwise, the fighting among elite disciples usually wouldn’t be this intense…”
At this stage, the Golden Core elder behind ng Yan couldn’t be relied upon either, because the enemy side had their own, perhaps even more…
So now, ng Yan could only rely on himself. With the Azure Origin Sect and all its affiliated forces thoroughly embroiled in the vortex, among all known people, almost no one could spare a hand to help him.
After receiving ng Yan’s call for aid, Qi Ping wasn’t overly worried. His current strength was sufficient to deal with these enemies.
However, Qi Ping didn’t dare to be the slightest bit careless. Facing these elite disciples nurtured with their sects’ core resources, his individual combat strength might not guarantee a stable victory. Even against ng Yan now, Qi Ping didn’t have absolute confidence.
After all, in terms of cultivation techniques, spell potency, foundational strength, and other such factors, Qi Ping was definitely at a disadvantage. The disparity in resources was simply there.
Even in the comprehension of Intent, he might only be on par at best.
The only advantages Qi Ping might have were the Beast King’s Fla and the Yang Fire Physique. The Explosive Fire spells, perfected with these two innate talents, were extrely powerful.
Besides that, the Tree-Skin Art had also greatly enhanced his survivability, and its defensive power stacked with the Blazing Explosion Net was terrifying. The Hundred-Eyes Demonic Realm could also be considered an unexpected trump card.
Of course, Qi Ping’s greatest reliance was still his animal companions.
Currently, Ya Ya, the ten thousand combat bee drones, and the Hundred-Eyes Flower Sprite all possessed formidable combat capabilities.
The characteristics of the bee swarm and the Hundred-Eyes Flower Sprite were clear. The ten thousand combat drones, about half of which were enhanced after the Bee Queen’s transformation, had combat power sufficient to wear down an ordinary Foundation Establishnt cultivator. The Little Flower Sprite’s Hundred-Eyes Demonic Realm likewise posed a threat to Foundation Establishnt.
While Ya Ya’s characteristics might not seem as pronounced as the first two, its burst power was actually terrifying as well—versatile in attack, defense, and speed. Its physical body and innate spirit fire, having absorbed the power of the Great Sun, had long since advanced a grade in potency.
Moreover, Ya Ya’s bloodline awakening was increasing almost daily, almost entirely accumulated bit by bit through its own efforts. The help Qi Ping provided was only occasionally giving Ya Ya so Beast King’s Fla, or allowing Ya Ya to occasionally comprehend his Fire Intent at night to enhance its bloodline awakening.
Regarding Ya Ya, Qi Ping was the most at ease. It would definitely break through its bloodline shackles again in the future, transforming into an even stronger Great Sun-type spiritual beast.
And Qi Ping was almost certain that within half a year, Ya Ya would inevitably break through to the second tier!
After taking stock and preparing his combat strength, Qi Ping continued calmly nurturing the spirit herbs and accelerating the Little Flower Sprite’s growth rate.
For Qi Ping, going out to fight was rely an interlude. Farming and improving were eternal.
Thus, five days passed, and Qi Ping received another ssage from ng Yan.
[Brother Qi, et at the usual place. I had soone arrange formation traps nearby in advance!]
After receiving ng Yan’s ssage, Qi Ping finished necessary arrangents for things on the mountain peak, then imdiately transford into a bee. He took most of the bee swarm and his animal companions and headed for the rendezvous point.
Only after confirming there was no danger did Qi Ping appear before ng Yan.
“Brother Qi, you’ve finally co. I really have to trouble you this ti!”
“It’s no trouble at all. This is what I should do. Have you gathered information on the enemy’s strength?” Qi Ping asked.
The enemy’s details were Qi Ping’s primary concern.
However, ng Yan could only shake his head helplessly.
“Can’t get specific information on the enemy. However, it’s certain there are no Foundation Establishnt cultivators. In that case, what they’ve likely sent are disciples either stronger than or greater in number. Their overall strength should be about two to three tis mine. Four tis is unlikely; they don’t have that much combat power available within the Azure Sky Domain.”
“So with us joining forces, plus the aid of formations, we have a chance of winning. At the very least, escaping shouldn’t be a problem.”
“After all, your existence, Brother Qi, is sothing they won’t anticipate…”
At this point, looking at Qi Ping’s calm, unfluctuating expression, ng Yan knew that under normal circumstances, this operation was absolutely stable.
Becoming friends with Qi Ping back then was indeed a very correct choice he made.
In a war situation like this, having a hidden friend with extraordinary strength was of imnse benefit to him.
After all, there are only a few critical battles. With Qi Ping’s assistance, his chances of surviving them would be much higher.
And even in peaceti, having hidden combat strength would make him much more at ease in sect politics.
Next, after ng Yan explained the formation situation to Qi Ping in detail, the two discussed the upcoming combat plan.
ng Yan explained this battle plan and formation setup in great detail, covering aspects from trapping the enemy, fighting, to escaping. It was clear ng Yan had prepared very seriously.
It was also the first ti Qi Ping had seen ng Yan look so gravely serious, as if facing a formidable enemy.
This detail also indicated that the approaching enemies were definitely not to be taken lightly, and one could even perish here if not careful.
In contrast, Qi Ping was much more composed.
Because Qi Ping had already made all battle plans and preparations beforehand. He had even formulated plans for facing Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Even against a Foundation Establishnt expert, Qi Ping had confidence in his ability to escape. This was the source of his confidence.
After spending considerable ti, once all preparations were complete, ng Yan arranged for soone to quietly leak vague information about his location. This was a setup he had prepared long ago to avoid arousing the enemy’s suspicion as much as possible.
“Brother Qi, I’m not sure when the enemy sect’s people will co, or if they’ll even co at all. So I can only trouble you to stay here for a while. Please understand!” ng Yan said solemnly.
“Brother ng, there’s no need to be so polite. I will definitely give my all in this battle!”
After that, Qi Ping settled down to cultivate seriously.
Now that he didn’t need to spend ti nurturing spirit herbs, it was the perfect ti to focus on cultivating the Woodfla Art. Seizing the ti to improve his cultivation realm was the proper course.
With the Woodfla Art now perfected, Qi Ping’s realm was advancing rapidly.
Not long after ng Yan secretly leaked his location information, a group of young people with extraordinary bearing and powerful auras emanating from them received the news.
Among them, a young man with sharp eyebrows, bright star-like eyes, and a wooden sword strapped to his back curled his lips into a faint smile and said:
“After searching for so long, the fish has finally shown its tail. It’s ti to reel in the net!”
Even more astonishing was the mont this young man opened his eyes—the startling sword intent emanating from his gaze.
Yet, facing such a powerful sword cultivator, the two companions sitting across from him showed no fear whatsoever.
One of them had demonic energy churning around him, the other exuded a terrifying pressure from his physical body. In terms of aura, they were in no way inferior to the young man radiating sword intent!
