Chapter 763: Chapter 763
"This isn’t a reason for you to engage the enemy up close. You might not fear 10,000, but what about the unforeseeable? What if Shen Lie can’t free his hands to help you? Wouldn’t you be at a big disadvantage? Anyway, I will report the truth to the master,"
"Understood, it won’t happen again,"
the Fire Qilin Beast admitted its mistake honestly.
At this time, Chu Buyu had also dealt with the Green Wind Falcon and the Lion-tiger Beast. The Five-Tailed Spiritual Fox used its illusion techniques, and neither the Green Wind Falcon nor the Lion-tiger Beast could withstand it.
On the city walls of Tianxuan City, the gazes of Wang Tianxin and the other cultivators fell on the golden giant pearl.
"Spirit Beast Battle Array! Madam Liu, Young Friend Shen is quite capable!"
Wang Tianxin praised.
"Gold, water, fire, earth, ice, just missing wood, wind, and thunder attributes. Young Friend Shen’s coordination between Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects is skilled; it seems he must have practiced a lot,"
Wu Xuan said with a look of approval.
The Spirit Beast Battle Array was not an innovation of Shen Long; major powers also had Spirit Beast Battle Arrays. Multiple people controlling Spirit Beasts to work together, but Shen Long, alone, had nurtured several Sixth Order Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects, each with different Divine Skills and attributes, and their skilled coordination was particularly rare.
"They didn’t use their Dharma Natures to combat the enemy. Is it because they do not need to, or are they worried about their Dharma Natures being broken and affecting themselves?"
The Five-Flame True Monarch asked curiously.
Generally speaking, when Spirit Beasts use their Dharma Natures, they can enhance their strength, especially those with powerful bloodlines like the Five-tailed Spiritual Fox. Using the Dharma Nature of a Nine-tailed Spirit Fox to cast illusion techniques would be even more powerful.
"They’re probably worried about their Dharma Natures being broken. They can definitely speak human language, otherwise, they couldn’t communicate,"
They couldn’t hear the conversation between Shen Lie and Shen Lin. A Spirit Beast Battle Array has strict requirements, the first of which is that the Spirit Beast must be able to speak human language to facilitate communication and coordination.
"Shen Shizhu is an alchemist, so it’s not surprising that his Spirit Beasts can speak human language. I also didn’t expect that his Spirit Beasts could set up a Spirit Beast Battle Array,"
Liu Xin said with a smiling expression.
"Xiao Luo is an expert from the Bloodvine Clan. No matter how powerful Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects are, they are ultimately external aids. Without strong Divine Skills in oneself, one cannot go far,"
Chu Feng said with a sneer.
No matter what, Shen Long was only at the Mid-Stage of Void Refinement, whereas Xiao Luo was at the Late Stage of Void Refinement.
"Since Shen Shizhu dared to take Xiao Luo into the Cave Heaven Treasure, he must have something to rely on. He could trade for powerful Talismans with supreme elixirs,"
Chu Feng’s face showed a hint of mockery as he said, "Xiao Luo doesn’t lack Tribulation-Substituting Treasures. At most, he gets killed by him once; I don’t believe Young Friend Shen has many powerful Talismans..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when his expression turned very ugly.
Shen Long stepped out from the Qinglian Map, unscathed.
"How is this possible!"
Chu Feng exclaimed in surprise.
Most of the Unity Cultivators simultaneously flashed a look of astonishment in their eyes. Xiao Luo had been a famous expert for many years.
In the last great battle, Xiao Luo had slain a Late Stage Void Refinement cultivator from the Spirit Clan and severely injured a Mid-Stage Void Refinement Human Cultivator.
Even if Shen Long could kill Xiao Luo, it shouldn’t have been so easy!
"If you’re not up to it, don’t think others can’t do it either. Disciples of the Qianling Sect are not that weak. Hey, your Yinluo Sect’s two Void Refining Cultivators have been killed by a cultivator from the Giant Spirit Clan. If you’re too weak, don’t go to the front lines and make an easy kill for the Heterodox Cultivators,"
Liu Xin said sarcastically.
She knew that Shen Long had obtained a high-level Divine Soul technique, the Mysterious Soul Secret Manual, which came with secret techniques for the soul, making it not difficult for him to kill Xiao Luo.
As Shen Long emerged from the Qinglian Map, two cultivators from the Yinluo Sect were killed by a member of the Giant Spirit Clan, creating a stark contrast.
Teng Ying and others had different expressions on their faces. They could never have imagined that Shen Long could kill Xiao Luo so easily.
"A Spirit Beast Battle Array, a single person’s Spirit Beasts can form a battle array. Not to mention the Green Lotus Continent, even in the entire Realm of the Spiritual Pivot, it’s extremely rare,"
Ba Xin said, frowning.
"His Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects cooperate so well; it seems he hasn’t skimped on practice. He’s just missing Spirit Beasts with the wood, wind, and thunder attributes."
Xiao Yue said with a gloomy face.
The Bloodvine Clan also had Spirit Controllers like Shen Long, capable of forming Spirit Beast Battle Arrays with just one person’s Spirit Beasts, but such Spirit Controllers were few, and it was even harder higher up.
"He is an Alchemist, so it’s normal for him to have more sixth rank Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects. The higher the rank, the harder it is, especially during tribulation. His Spirit Beasts and Spirit Insects haven’t taken human form yet, making it too hard for them to get through the Heavenly Tribulation on their own strength."
"That’s true, but this child must not be left alive. If he were to grow, he would definitely be a great calamity."
Yin Pan said coldly, his face full of murderous intent.
So far, Shen Long and Chu Buyu had killed seven Void Refining Cultivators from the Tianyuan Tribe.
"Shen Long and Chu Buyu have already killed more than ten Void Refining Cultivators. The late-stage Void Refining Human Cultivators have been tied up by other human masters, and we can’t draw any more top fighters against them."
Xiao Yue said, frowning.
There weren’t many late-stage Void Refining Cultivators to begin with, and most of them were entangled with the human masters, unable to extricate themselves.
"Let’s stop the battle here for today! With several masters appearing among the reinforcements of the Human Clan, continuing the fight would not be to our advantage."
Teng Ying said in a deep voice.
In less than half an hour of battle, their side had lost over a hundred Void Refining Cultivators, a not insignificant loss.
The Bloodvine Clan sounded the retreat, and the Heterodox Cultivators alternately covered each other as they withdrew, while the Human Clan did not pursue further and orderly retreated back to Tianxuan City.
Liu Xin breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed Teng Ying did not intend to escalate the scale of the war, retreating so quickly.
"Fellow Daoists, go back and rest. Take good care of the wounded."
Wang Tianxin instructed, leaving some Cultivators on top of the city wall to continue surveillance as everyone returned to their respective homes.
Shen Long and Chu Buyu had just returned to Qianling Garden when Li Xin quickly came over to greet them, his face full of smiles, "Congratulations, Uncle Shen and Master Aunt Chu, on your great display of divine might. Grandmaster Liu is asking to see you."
Shen Long and Chu Buyu followed Li Xin to a small courtyard with green tiles. Liu Xin was sitting in a green Stone Pavilion, smiling.
"Disciple pays respect to Master Aunt Liu."
Shen Long and Chu Buyu bowed with respectful expressions.
"You performed very well today; I and the other Daoists all took notice. Shen Shizhu and Master Nephew Chu, after this battle, you will definitely become famous."
Liu Xin said with a gentle smile.
"It’s all thanks to the Sect’s cultivation."
Shen Long and Chu Buyu said modestly.
"Your strength is not weak, but remember that there’s always someone stronger. Don’t underestimate the other Void Refining Cultivators, understand?"
"Disciples understand, thank you for the teaching, Master Aunt Liu."
Shen Long and Chu Buyu readily agreed.
They also understood this principle and didn’t plan to make a move in the next big battle.
"Alright, go about your business. First, go to the Qingxuan Tower to exchange for Kind Attribute, as some Cultivation Resources are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis."
Liu Xin waved them off.
Shen Long and Chu Buyu went to the Qingxuan Tower, where Wang Changxian greeted them warmly.
"Taoist Friend Shen, Fairy Chu, your profound skills have raised our Human Clan’s prestige. You’re here to exchange for Kind Attribute, aren’t you?"
Wang Changxian spoke warmly.
"We plan to exchange for sixth rank Spirit Flame."
Shen Long took out his enemies’ Identity Tokens and life-bound treasures. After Wang Changxian had checked that everything was in order, he allocated them a large amount of Kind Attribute.
