Chapter 269 Chaotic Battle: Earth Spirit Fruit in Hand!
In the field.
Outside the Luofu Sword Formation, more than thirty Core Formation cultivators attacked together, each unleashing a divine power that shook the entire outer peak of Luofu Mountain.
The countless sword energies formed by spiritual energy shattered one after another, a sight rarely seen when everyone worked together to break the formation.
My emotions surged for a moment.
"Gentlemen, this damn sword formation is about to collapse."
"Give it another push and break through in one fell swoop!"
"Whoever grabs the Earth Spirit Fruit gets to keep it. Let's work together to break the formation."
They actually broke through the formation with brute force.
Wang Yu, who had just visited the Tianhun Sect ruins, was speechless at this behavior. Among these thirty-odd Core Formation cultivators, were there no ones skilled in formations?
In fact, there really is.
But why did he say that? It would be better to secretly study the sword formation, find an opportunity to break it, take all the earth spirit fruits for himself, and then quickly retreat.
Greed is an inescapable theme for cultivators.
Array Master Yu Sheng is such a cultivator. He comes from the northeastern part of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect's territory—[Liuju Prefecture]!
It borders Yunling Prefecture and is only a few thousand miles away from here.
He was staring intently at the storage bag.
The Void-Escape Talisman hidden in the chest compartment is ready to be activated at any time, just waiting for the right opportunity.
A few breaths later, the Luofu Sword Formation began to sway and tremble.
Thirteen sword lights suddenly flew out from the distant sky, led by the Luo Fu Ancestor. Upon seeing this, the anger that had been building up during the meeting instantly erupted.
"A bunch of shameless scoundrels."
"Luofu Sword Manual, rise!"
In an instant, the sky darkened and a storm broke out.
A colossal sword, powerful enough to obscure the sun and moon, arrived suddenly like a meteorite from outer space, sending shockwaves through the air and creating a deafening sonic boom.
Then... it crashed down!
"Luo Fu, you dare to call someone a shameless scoundrel? Have you forgotten how that rogue cultivator was tricked into the sword formation by your He family?"
Among the group of more than thirty people, a cultivator at the peak of the Core Formation stage suddenly made a move.
One by one, white bones coalesced from nothingness.
Transformed into a bone sword no less formidable than a celestial giant sword, it surged upstream, and the moment the two collided, the world fell silent.
The loud explosion paused for a moment before spreading out again.
Upon seeing this, Wang Yu asked in surprise and doubt.
"This is the Core Formation of the Yellow Springs Temple."
"Oh—Junior Brother, are you sure? Demonic cultivators who practice the White Bone Path are not uncommon on the Crimson Kite Land."
"It's confirmed, that smell of the underworld can't be faked."
"That's good."
Among the group of more than thirty people, Wang Yu confirmed that there were three peak Core Formation cultivators from Huangbai City. Strangely enough, they did not try to seize the Earth Spirit Fruit Tree.
Instead, they came to Mount Luofu to seize the Earth Spirit Fruit, which they considered only for trading or for nurturing future generations.
Such desperate efforts seemed to stem from his own needs, and Wang Yu couldn't help but recall the information he had obtained through soul searching.
Is it because of the [Yellow Spring Elixir]?
Before he could figure it out, Wei Hao nodded to Wei Ying, and the other person disappeared among the group.
"Junior Brother Wang, get ready to make your move. That sword formation can't hold on any longer."
Let's turn our attention back to the battlefield.
After the clash of peaks, the aftershocks of power caused the Core Formation cultivators to disperse, including some of the peak Core Formation cultivators from the Yellow Springs Temple.
There are also mid-stage Core Formation cultivators from third-rate forces, early-stage Core Formation cultivators from independent cultivators, and so on.
There are quite a few people who try to profit from the chaos.
Seizing this opportune moment, the twelve people, led by the Ancestor of Luofu, immediately formed the "Luofu Twelve Sword Formation," a formation said to be capable of fighting Nascent Soul cultivators.
This is similar to the sword formation that is fixed in this place, but it is not the same type at all.
The twelve natal swords were thrown into the air, forming a long dragon of sword energy that crashed head-on into a true rogue cultivator, whose body immediately exploded.
A dim golden core and a storage ring were swept into the long dragon of sword energy and taken over by Ancestor Luofu.
Once the formation is activated, one person can be killed instantly without breaking a sweat.
Seeing them continue charging towards the crowd, several early-stage Core Formation cultivators turned green with fright and immediately fled further away, completely abandoning any thought of the Earth Spirit Fruit.
However, some people, confident in their own strength, scoffed.
"What Twelve Swords of Luofu? You think you can fight a Nascent Soul cultivator?!"
This person suddenly revealed that he had reached the ninth level of the Core Formation stage.
Pointing one finger to the sky.
The turbid currents of the Yellow Springs descended upon the world. A terrifying hand, nearly a thousand meters long, suddenly grasped the long dragon of sword energy, and the turbid currents of the Yellow Springs washed over it.
The faces of the people from Mount Luofu were even greener than those of the rogue cultivators from before.
"People from the Yellow Springs Temple!"
"How could this be!"
"Ancestor, bring back your natal magic weapon at once!"
It's too late.
The man smiled contemptuously. Although the Yellow Springs Great Handprint could not break the formation, it was enough to make the sword cultivators of Mount Luofu feel unbearable pain.
"My Azure Frost Sword... has fallen from the superior grade to the mid-grade."
"Damn bastard, my Heavenly Net Sword has dropped to a lower grade!"
"Rain Butterfly Sword..."
"Mountain-Crushing Sword..."
Fortunately, none of the natal magic weapons were completely shattered. Ancestor Luofu's face turned ashen. If he had known that there were people from the Yellow Springs Temple among them...
He certainly wouldn't use his natal magic weapon as the first weapon. His sword was barely maintained at the high-grade level, but the loss of its essence was equivalent to refining five talisman treasures.
"I'm so angry!!!"
"Sword Qi Transforms into Silk - A Net of Heaven and Earth!"
The twelve sword cultivators, their qi linked together, unleashed a group attack in a fit of rage, immediately forcing the man to retreat.
But he escaped; others cannot escape.
Extremely sharp sword threads formed two nets, rising from the sky and closing in on the cultivators from both sides simultaneously.
The supernatural power, primarily designed for area-of-effect attacks, covers a radius of nearly ten thousand meters, cutting everything in its path into thumb-sized cubes.
Such a critical situation.
Not all of them were insignificant; they displayed a variety of extraordinary abilities, much to the amusement of Wang, who was observing from the shadows.
A cultivator summoned a giant cauldron and slammed it deep into the ground. The net couldn't stop it; this was a magical artifact.
A cultivator exhaled a breath of innate wood energy, and a demonic vine radiating a metallic luster rose from the ground, forcefully drilling a hole in the sword net, allowing it to escape. This was done using supernatural powers!
One cultivator possessed astonishing escape techniques, transforming into a grain of light and slipping through the gaps in the sword net, disappearing into the horizon in an instant—he chose to flee!
These scenes are truly remarkable; the demonic cultivators' methods of escaping are indeed quite ingenious.
Even so, some people are still trapped in the Sword Net.
They were cut into pieces while still alive. None of the early-stage Core Formation cultivators survived. The group of more than thirty people either ran away or hid, and in an instant, only seven or eight people remained.
"..."
"..."
Despite the excellent situation, Patriarch Luofu did not let his guard down.
really.
A few breaths later, a turbid yellow giant hand and a withered bone giant hand simultaneously emerged from the air, attacking the Luofu Twelve Sword Formation from both sides once again.
"Nonsense! You expect the same trick to work?!"
"Luofu Sword Manual: Ten Directions Killing Sword!"
This sword formation, which was said to be able to rival a Nascent Soul cultivator, finally unleashed its true power, crushing the two giant hands with overwhelming force.
The overwhelming sword energy, as if automatically tracking its path, blasted towards a void. A few breaths later, a figure emerged from it—the very same Yellow Springs Temple cultivator who had just tricked the Luofu sword cultivator.
Four or five pale white lightsabers were stuck in his body, and he vomited blood repeatedly: "I underestimated you."
"Oh--"
"burst!"
Ancestor Luofu scoffed, and with a flick of his wrist, he caused the pierced light swords to shatter, scattering blood and leaving only a radiant golden core that fled into the distance.
He's dead, yet he's not dead.
This is the first peak Core Formation cultivator to leave the stage.
"Ancestor, Earth Spirit Fruit!"
Just as they had achieved a brilliant victory, a figure suddenly appeared in the fixed sword formation. It was none other than the third peak Core Formation cultivator from the Yellow Springs Temple.
He somehow managed to enter the formation directly.
The Old Ancestor of Luofu roared suddenly.
"I beg for the sword! Activate the Luofu Demon-Trapping Sword Formation!"
He Qiujian, the thirteenth member, was only at the first level of Core Formation, but he was still able to control this third-tier sword formation to block the people from the Yellow Springs Temple.
He had been hiding behind the scenes without making a move, so it's appropriate to use him now as a backup plan.
"A mere child at the first level of Core Formation dares to obstruct me!"
The Yellow Spring Demon Cultivator laughed loudly, and talismans flew out from his robes. They were actually engraved into various nodes of the Luofu Demon Trapping Sword Formation, rendering any attempt to activate the sword futile.
This genius from the He family also became anxious for a moment.
"call out--"
The moment the person reached out and touched the storage bag, the ground suddenly cracked open.
The array master Yu Sheng, who had been lying in wait for a long time, suddenly appeared. Without saying a word, he grabbed the storage bag and ran away, snatching the food from the tiger's mouth with great skill.
The cracked ground swallowed it, and spatial fluctuations spread outwards.
"It's a Void Escape Talisman!"
"Stop him!"
The Yellow Spring Demon Cultivator had a gloomy expression and dug into the ground with his large hand.
A small hill, mixed with mud and rocks, was lifted up by a skeletal hand, and the spatial fluctuations inside grew stronger and stronger.
The bony hand immediately closed and pinched together.
The golden array patterns formed a seal, creating a small protective array. While it shattered, it also fulfilled the requirements of the array master, Yu Sheng.
"Hahaha, in the end I won the game."
No, I won.
Wei Ying suddenly appeared, and in the bewildered gaze of the array master Yu Sheng, he pulled out a series of shadowy tentacles from his sleeve and stripped him naked.
Yuzuru disappeared completely naked, clutching the escape talisman.
This cycle of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, has added another bird catcher to the list.
Wei Ying's sudden appearance made her the target of everyone's anger.
The golden light emanating from the storage bag made him appear like a ten-thousand-watt light bulb, almost blinding.
"Kill him!"
The Yellow Spring Demon Cultivator and the Twelve Swords of Luofu attacked simultaneously. Without hesitation, Wei Ying took out sixteen Earth Spirit Fruits and scooped out five of them.
The remaining eleven shot off in all directions like meteors.
This was like stirring up trouble; those Core Formation cultivators who had vanished without a trace reappeared from all directions, chasing after the departing Earth Spirit Fruit without hesitation.
On Wei Ying's side, it was the three Wei brothers, Wei Yuyu, and Wei Ying, who made their move.
Using the Three Talents Formation, Wei Ying was protected in the middle. A huge blue-faced ghost head suddenly appeared, blocking the attack from the Yellow Spring Demon Cultivator and the Luo Fu Clan.
The four of them disappeared at once.
"this……"
Damn it!
After failing to locate the person using divine sense for an instant.
Unwilling to waste time, the demonic cultivator from the underworld decisively abandoned the pursuit and instead rushed toward the scattered earth spirit fruits.
There were eleven scattered pieces; with his strength, he could definitely get one or two.
On the contrary, the Luofu sword cultivators were at a loss for what to do.
"Chase!"
