Chapter 222: Chapter 222: Golden Flame Crow’s Combat Power! The Little Flower Demon Shows Its Might! Tremendous Gains
When that extraordinary golden figure shot into the array, Qi Ping’s eyes were full of curiosity.
"I wonder if Yaya can suppress these three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators?"
The Golden Flame Crow is a king-level spiritual beast among Tier Three spirit beasts, an existence that even cultivators at the same Golden Core Stage would avoid.
Although it’s currently at Tier Two, its suppressive effect on cultivators of the same level should be stronger.
Moreover, it’s high noon now!
The golden sunlight shone on Yaya, reflecting clusters of golden flames!
The sunlight was perfect, and with the blessing of the sun, Yaya’s Great Sun Martial Body’s combat strength soared!
This was also the timing Qi Ping chose based on Yaya’s characteristics.
The Golden Flame Crow is his strongest combat power at the moment, so naturally, he chose the time when the sun is at its peak, to ensure Yaya’s combat strength and recovery ability in case of danger!
...
Originally, these three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators had already expended a lot due to breaking through two combination arrays, and this consumption was not only reflected in spiritual power but also in the divine soul and physical blood energy.
Now, even if they exerted all their strength, they might not be able to break the third array!
At this moment, they were barely holding on under the attack of the Fire Crow Array and the Profound Gold Killing Array.
Suddenly, a golden figure flashed and assassinated one of them, and in an instant, the Power of the Great Sun spread, and the sound of intense fiery explosions rang out furiously!
"What is this!"
The attacked Foundation Establishment cultivator cried out in terror, using the Water Spirit Pestle in his hand to continuously fend off the frenzied attacks of the golden figure, causing him to stagger back repeatedly. His body was blasted with violent and fierce attacks, causing internal injuries!
On his left forearm, there was a terrifying charred claw mark, which almost severed his entire forearm.
If not for him quickly using spiritual power to protect himself, his entire forearm would have been completely fractured by now.
As soon as he managed to catch a glimpse of a golden crow’s figure, before he could say anything, he suddenly felt a searing pain in his divine soul, which instantly appeared in a terrifying scene.
The Hundred Eyes Flower Demon’s talent, the Hundred Eyes Demon Realm, inherently targets the will. At this moment, he was frustrated in breaking the array and had greatly depleted his divine soul and body. Being ambushed by the Golden Flame Crow had severely injured him, leaving his will and divine soul extremely weak. So, the mid-stage Tier Two Hundred Eyes Flower Demon chose this time to unleash its talent, almost immediately dragging this weakened late-stage Foundation Establishment expert into the terrifying Hundred Eyes Demon Realm.
When this late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator’s consciousness entered the Hundred Eyes Demon Realm, he realized something was amiss and immediately struggled desperately.
But before he could escape the control of the Hundred Eyes Demon Realm, his consciousness slowly began to dissipate.
Meanwhile, in the outside world, his head had already been torn off by Yaya, the entire head charred black, and his divine soul rapidly turning into nothingness in the flames.
Late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, fallen!
Everything happened within just one or two breaths.
This sudden turn of events almost scared the other two late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators senseless!
They were still entangled by the trapping and killing arrays, resulting in one of their companions, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, dying here in such a short time!
"Golden Flame Crow!"
As the two of them saw Yaya’s figure clearly, their eyes widened with shock, and a strong sense of fear welled up within them.
How could there be a spiritual beast of this level like the Golden Flame Crow!
This is an existence that, once grown, even Golden Core cultivators would avoid in terror!
Now, although it’s in the mid-stage of Tier Two, its powerful bloodline is evident, and they are still trapped in the array, along with the fact that it’s high noon!
It’s simply one death-dealing buff stacking on top of another!
But that’s not all, they now also noticed a mid-stage Tier Two purple plant-type spirit beast in the distance, about the size of a child. It was this very beast that had put their late-stage Foundation Establishment companion in a state where he was unable to control his body due to a divine soul attack.
It’s all over!
Realizing their situation, a chill ran through their hearts.
They really couldn’t find any way out now, even if they called for help, it wouldn’t arrive in time. It would take at least half a day to get here, even with a full-speed rush.
They never expected that although they were the hunters setting a trap, they instead became the hunted.
They couldn’t understand whether Qi Ping knew they were coming or did it just to be cautious.
If it’s the former, fine, but what’s with the latter?
Setting up so many arrays just to be cautious? Breaking one only to face another, and after exhausting that, there’s yet another layer, they have no idea how many layers of arrays there are!
Isn’t setting up arrays costly?
Too cautious!
But at this point, there’s nothing they can say or do. They have no hope of turning the situation around.
As events proved, they weren’t wrong, as under the joint suppression of the arrays, the Golden Flame Crow, and the Hundred Eyes Flower Demon, the two weakened late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators were quickly and completely slain!
The only thing that haunted them was, who was this companion of the suspected Bee Daoist?
Having such deep and powerful attainments in array formations was one thing, but to also have a Golden Flame Crow pet beast! As well as a mysterious strong divine soul system pet beast!
Are they really the same group that dares only to secretly oppose the Immortal Alliance? Could such an extraordinary figure exist among them?
The ones they referred to as mice were just failures rejected from the gates by the Immortal Alliance and the Cyan Origin Sect, without even a chance to appear on stage!
Considering someone of Qi Ping’s caliber, placed in the Cyan Origin Sect and the Immortal Alliance, he would be considered an impressive figure, although whether he could keep the Golden Flame Crow after entering remains unknown.
A person of such caliber shouldn’t come from that group of mice, right? Then where exactly does Qi Ping come from?
Unfortunately, they no longer have the chance to find out...
...
"It’s finally over!"
Seeing the three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators dead, Qi Ping breathed a huge sigh of relief.
Fighting to the death with such late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators for the first time, it’s impossible not to feel tense, but the outcome was favorable!
Yaya’s performance was also quite commendable, under the sun’s blessing, easily defeating such late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The little Flower Demon’s performance in its first battle was also impressive, exhibiting excellent timing, spell stability, and intensity, showcasing the results of years of diligent training.
Overall, Qi Ping was quite satisfied with the performance this time.
However, Qi Ping didn’t have time to carefully review now, he quickly tidied up the battlefield, while removing the unused arrays, and couldn’t let go of the three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators’ storage bags.
After cleaning up the battlefield and removing all traces of the fight, Qi Ping quickly departed from there.
The remaining two-tenths of the spoils certainly couldn’t be taken now. With the death of three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, exposing his location would truly be a loss.
During that large sect war before, even the number of late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator deaths was limited. At this moment, with three suddenly dead, even if the situation wasn’t severe, it would have to become serious, without even needing to inquire Qi Ping already knew it would surely stir up quite a commotion.
Especially if it’s connected to what Bee Daoist did over two years ago, the waves it could stir up wouldn’t be small at all.
"The Celestial Secret Divination Spirit Beast must be acquired quickly!" Qi Ping thought to himself.
This time, bringing back the eighth one-tenth share of the spoils, along with acquiring the three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators’ items, was more than enough to purchase a Celestial Secret Spirit Beast.
...
After leaving the battlefield and finding a safe place, Qi Ping immediately refreshed the Foundation Establishment task using the Tree-man Avatar, and after spending 2,000 spirit stones to refresh tasks, he found the bounty for two of them, while the third wasn’t listed.
"It seems only two are on the bounty list, that’s pretty good."
"7600 + 8100, this time I directly gained 15,700 black market points, not bad, not bad!"
"Finally, I managed to save enough black market points to purchase a Celestial Secret Spirit Beast!"
