Chapter 291 Carnage and A Nice Spear
She asked with a hint of shiver in her voice as even she still underestimated the extent of his abilities to an extent.
"A simplified version, I cannot do the real thing now"
He shrugged as she looked at him with the gaze of 'that does not make it any less surprising'.
"Fairy Gong Cui, if you may"
He then turned to the maiden who gradually turned energetic again as they approached the massive sect gates with a smile on his face.
"Hehe, sure"
She smiled and took out her Zither, placing it before her as she sat down.
"What are they doing?"
"Are they going to perform for us or something?"
"Haha, and here I thought..."
The Sect Protectors atop the gates who were still confused by the gradual weakening and subsequent disappearance of their sect's Grand Formation were shocked to see her actions, and gradually slightly relaxed their guard but the eyes of a Sect Elder among them widened.
"No... that is-..."
*twang*
Gong Cui's long and thin, elegant fingers touched the strings and a long undulating twang resounded, from high to low and then high pitch with a slight twist in the tone.
"Defen-..."
The Sect Elder started a shout but it drowned in the sound of the zither string that increased in volume as the air around the area shook.
Gong Cui's fingers started dancing on the strings and waves of destruction went forth from her along with a beautiful melody, carrying dust and chunks of gorged out earth, becoming larger and more intense as they approached the gate.
The Sect Elder first tried to use a communication talisman but was shocked to see it being blocked as the message dissipated without being sent, and then placed his hand on the array on the wall to try and activate the protection arrays of the gates with his Spiritual Qi but as his Spiritual Qi passed into the array, leaving his control, it then mysteriously disappeared, as if he was pouring water into a cup with a broken bottom.
'Shit'
His eyes widened as the deafening sound began to shake the entire sect and the clouds of dust were almost upon them, his eyes widening in fear and then shutting as the dust covered the gates and went forth, the waves decimating everything in their wake.
"I-is this what a Music Dao cultivator is like in battle?"
Cao Mei opened her eyes wide at the destruction that lay before them.
"I'm tired~"
Gong Cui sighed as she stood up and leaned on her older sister who came to support her.
"Eh?"
Cao Mei made a dumbfounded sound as just when she thought that Music Dao Cultivators were unparalleled, Gong Cui became weak and slightly pale.
"That attack required a massive amount of Spiritual Qi, in fact most of what Fairy Gong Cui had. And it was too wide-scale so the higher-level cultivators would not really receive serious damage even if they get caught up in it. Usually Music Dao Cultivators hold back a little more, using their attacks in more targeted ways, but it seems that she was too eager"
Ye Ling explained with a chuckle.
"To be fair, since the Spiritual Qi in the air was extremely thin because of my formation, she had to use her own Spiritual Qi entirely for this attack whereas she would normally resonate it with the natural Spiritual Qi in the surroundings, thus saving a lot. I told her to go all out in the beginning since I would make this battlefield an uncomfortable environment for her"
Wu Long supplemented with a slightly guilty smile as the absence of Spiritual Qi in the air around may have been an effective way to take away the advantage of having pre-installed formations and arrays, and have little effect on Martial Cultivators who used their own Spiritual Qi and not the surroundings, it was a double-edged sword against allies who used the natural environment Spiritual Qi, manipulating it with their own like Music Dao Cultivators.
He could not, however, completely exclude her from the attack since she was so eager to participate, thus giving her the big stage of opening up the battle with a splash.
"Ziyan, Min'er, and Lan'er are the main attackers this time as we discussed, Mengqi, Xiang'er and Mei'er are supporting them. Ling'er will take charge of the rear camp and I will be near the attacking group, any questions?"
Wu Long asked and the beauties around him nodded as this was already pre-arranged. Hua Ziyan, Shen Min and Wei Lan went forth as Wu Mengqi, Cao Xiang and Cao Mei followed right after while Wu Long's figure disappeared into the clouds of dust.
Ye Ling calmly stood with Luo Mingyu on one side and the Gong sisters on the other, looking into the clouds of dust that soon were filled with the sounds of battle.
"Th-they are in Foundatio-..!"
"Fuck! We're doome-...!"
The protectors and disciples who greeted the attacking squad were shocked to find that all six beauties attacking them were in the Foundation Building Realm, with Wei Lan even being a half-step Core Formation Realm expert.
The Spiritual Qi fists, chakrams and a staff started to plow through the numerous defenders as sabers and a sword cut off the ones that seeped through.
"Get into Sword Formation!"
Sect Elders started to give out commands, but these Revolving Qi Realm elders were swept away with the rest with no ability to stop the onslaught of the heavenly beauties.
*Bam!*
A Spiritual Qi Fist broke against a Spiritual Qi fist that broke as well. But whereas Hua Ziyan's broke into pieces that flew out in all directions the Foundation Building Realm elder who stepped out of a movement technique was left completely unguarded as his fist dissipated in moments, having to hastily retreat right into the path of a chakram that cut right through his torso and went on to further strike others.
"Impos-.."
The elder who just appeared on the battlefield voiced out his bewilderment before gurgling blood and falling, not lasting a single exchange as Shen Min's chakram that she held in her hand clashed against a sword of another Foundation Building Realm elder.
"You puny brats don't know who you are messing with!"
The Sect Elder shouted in fury as he stepped back, a silvery stream of Spiritual Qi sent by a staff pressing on from his side.
"On the contrary, we know exactly who you are"
Hua Ziyan said as her fists landed on the man who could not get a break.
*Clank*
A chakram blocked a spear that pierced toward Hua Ziyan as a staff came down on the newly appeared man.
The chakram bounced off since it was too light to hold off the spear strike but it was enough for Wei Lan to switch in and attack, while Shen Min cut off the head of the one pressed by Hua Ziyan's relentless barrage of attacks.
"Grand Elder F-...!"
"Save u-...!"
The Sect Protectors shouted out to the Grand Elders as Cao Xiang and Cao Mei cut through them and Wu Mengqi was hunting down the Revolving Qi Realm elders.
The scene became chaotic as the Dawn Concealing Sect members tried all they could to hold off the attack but it started resembling pure carnage more and more as their numbers started to dwindle. The newly arriving members were also becoming gradually more scarce as the beauties massacred the Lust Cultivators, all moving to cover for each other if any one of them faced trouble or made a mistake.
"That's enough!"
*Clang!!!*
A resounding metal sound reverberated as sparks went off into the air as a middle aged man appeared on the field, surrounded by three other people.
"Enough so soon? I thought Lust Cultivators were insatiable"
Wu Long appeared before them among the sparks as the middle-aged man's pupils shrank. He clearly intended to instantly incapacitate Shen Min with the first strike, and yet it was intercepted by this young man seemingly with no effort whatsoever.
'Hmm, that is a nice spear'
Wu Long then noticed the spear in the man's hand and smiled, since his weapons had started to lag behind his needs at this point.
