At this moment, if someone were to look down from the sky, they would find that within the Xuandan Sect’s temporary residence, not only did Lu Su’s team suffer greatly, the other nine teams were also severely damaged.
Even the only three cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Peak were killed or severely injured in an instant.
The severely injured one tried to retreat in horror but was killed on the spot by a medium-grade magical weapon.
The third and strongest cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Peak fought against two Blood God Sect cultivators at the same level while carrying a high-grade magical weapon, and occasionally faced additional attackers at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation. As time passed, his fate grew increasingly dire.
This siege was initiated by the Blood God Sect, which had fewer than half the number of members as the Xuandan Sect.
However, the individual strength of the Blood God Sect members far surpassed that of the Xuandan Sect, leading to a one-sided slaughter that was carried out with ease.
In less than a quarter of an hour,
The third cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Peak, in a desperate and unwilling roar, blew up his magical weapon in an attempt to perish together with the two Blood God Sect cultivators at the ninth level.
Unfortunately,
The Blood God Sect cultivators were experienced in battle and managed to block the explosion using two medium-grade magical weapons. As a result, the attacking cultivators at the ninth level also suffered various injuries and coughed up blood continuously.
“Damn it, he actually blew up his magical weapon. Luckily, I reacted quickly, otherwise, I’d be in trouble. Damn it, I’m losing in this deal,” one of the ninth-level Blood God Sect cultivators cursed, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with a fierce light, and his murderous aura was palpable.
“Isn’t that the truth? 1 just got my hands on this medium-grade magical weapon, and it’s barely warm. Thankfully, I only refined it at its initial stage, so its destruction doesn’t hurt too much. Still, considering it’s a medium-grade magical weapon, it took me quite some effort to snatch it. Elder Han, can the sect compensate us for this?”
The other ninth-level cultivator said ruefully.
After these two ninth-level cultivators finished speaking, they looked back at a cultivator with a calm expression who was standing behind them.
This cultivator had the surname Han, and was at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation Peak. Throughout the battle, he hadn’t taken action, merely observing from the sidelines.
He was the leader of this siege.
The reason he hadn’t taken action was that there was nobody on the current battlefield worth his effort.
Han didn’t respond to the two men’s questions but coldly glanced at them. The sharp, indifferent look in his eyes was enough to silence them. Then, he scanned the already calmed down battlefield.
“You two, follow me to the Blood Flame Crystal mine.”
“Don’t worry, that’s where the real feast is tonight. This was just an appetizer.”
“Luo Yunxiao, Yuan Bai, Shi Heng, the trio of you should stay behind with your respective teams and hunt down the fleeing Xuandan Sect members one by one, leaving no survivor.”
“Everyone else, follow me.”
As soon as his words fell, he turned and left, heading straight to the city gate.
The two ninth-level cultivators, who were called upon, reluctantly started to follow, their greedy thoughts laid bare by the mention of the Blood Flame Crystal mine, which they intended to plunder.
Tonight,
Tianqing City was completely open to both sects. The Daqian officials who guarded the city had closed the gates and ignored anything happening outside, as if deaf to any sounds of battle.
This was the order given by the Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator who was in charge of guarding Tianqing City.
Not only in Tianqing City but throughout Taibai County and along the entire battle line between the two sects, the attitude was the same.
After all, the Xuandan Sect and Blood God Sect had completely broken off any facade of friendship.
For some unknown reason, Daqian Immortal Country had not stepped in to stop the fighting, so cultivators below would not risk their lives meddling without understanding the full story.
The vast temporary residence of the Xuandan Sect quieted down in an instant.
Half of the people were taken away, leaving only three eighth-level Qi Cultivators who were called upon by Han, together with some seventh-level Qi Cultivators, totaling about twenty people. They stayed behind to hunt down the fleeing Xuandan Sect members.
“Trash, these Xuandan Sect cultivators are barely any better than trash. So how could they have survived these years?”
“If they encountered the demonic beings in the Blood River, I estimate they would be killed in an instant.”
The cold-looking youth holding the Golden Light Shuttle spoke in a seemingly amused tone, his eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a faint smile.
“Heh, with such strength, if you were in the Blood God Sect, the tomb grass would have grown three feet high already. No, that’s not right. Where would there be tomb grass? You’d be plunged into the blood river and your ashes would be refined into dust.”
Another eighth layer cultivator, a middle-aged scholar-like appearance, held a silver folding fan in his hand. This was his magical equipment, although it was only of medium grade, it had incredible power.
Just now, it was this middle-aged scholar-like cultivator who had intervened in the battle and killed Lu Su with a single fan strike.
“Cut the nonsense. Elder Brother Han has ordered us to kill all disciples of the Xuandan Sect. If we let even one escape, Elder Brother Han will hold us responsible, and you’ll be in big trouble.”
The third Qi Cultivation eighth layer cultivator was a woman, dressed in a long blood-red robe like the others. Her figure was graceful, and she exuded a captivating charm as she moved.
However, all the other eighth layer cultivators and disciples present dared not take an extra glance at her.
Because this woman cultivator was not only powerful but also cruel.
She enjoyed gouging out the eyes of those who stared at her too much, drying them and turning them into ornaments. It was rumored that her cave mansion was adorned with countless glowing beads, making the inner chamber bright and splendid.
Those beads were all made from the eyes of the cultivators she had killed.
The rumor may or may not be true, but her relationship with Elder Brother Han was indeed rather close, so people had to give her some face.
Elder Brother Han was one of the current Blood Gods in the Blood God Sect. Although his power was at the peak of the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation, his actual strength was comparable to a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, with astonishing combat power.
The scholar-like middle-aged man with the fan thought of the consequences of offending Elder Brother Han and his expression slightly changed.
Even the young man with a deep background, possessing a top-grade Golden Light Shuttle, wouldn’t openly defy the order of a Blood God Sect’s Blood God’s child.
The two of them didn’t say a word, but they immediately led their own teams, heading in different directions to pursue the enemies.
The eighth layer woman cultivator also confirmed that no one was left alive in the area and chose a third direction to lead her team after the others.
On the other hand.
After turning around and fleeing, Han Yi never looked back.
As for the fight behind him, it was completely one-sided in his eyes.
The gap in individual strength was too great.
Defeat was inevitable.
He hadn’t seen Lu Su’s dismembered body or the three Qi Cultivation ninth-layer cultivators killed to near extinction.
But just after he had escaped for less than a minute, the cries of the battle below came to a sudden end with a terrifying explosion. He could guess that the fight was over.
Those Xuandan Sect members who didn’t escape would face more bad luck than good.
“Damn it, what kind of policy is this, sending us to die?”
While fleeing, Han Yi recalled how not even a day had passed since their team left the temporary settlement before they were ambushed, causing his anger to surge.
Out of anger, he felt a little lost.
“Now, where should 1 go?”
“Wait, calm down.”
Han Yi forcibly suppressed his brief confusion and his mind raced rapidly.
“There are two choices: stay in the city or leave the city.”
“Leaving the city is even more dangerous. If I encounter a Blood God Sect’s army, 1’11 be walking into a trap, and besides, where can I go once I leave the city?”
“So, I can only stay in the city.”
“But the temporary residence is destroyed, Elder Gu from the Foundation Establishment stage was lured away, and the whereabouts of the others are unknown. The other disciples are either dead or dispersed.”
“No, 1 can seek refuge with the Daqian officials.”
“At this point, just find a safe place to hide. I’ll make my next move after the
dust settles..”
