Under the azure sky, a venerable monk in white robes and wide sleeves had a cold look in his eyes. He pursed his thin lips and spoke solemnly, "She is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. My master... my realm is much higher than hers."
Luo Jianqing was slightly stunned. After they walked forward for a while, Luo Jianqing opened his eyes wide and looked at Xuan Lingzi beside him in surprise. After watching for a long time, Luo Jianqing couldn't help but smile softly.
He finally understood what Xuan Lingzi had meant. While cultivating dually with that Foundation Establishment female cultivator was certainly beneficial, the difference between that female cultivator and Xuan Lingzi was worlds apart. While cultivating dually with her would benefit both parties, cultivating dually with Xuan Lingzi would offer even more benefits!
As if to confirm Luo Jianqing's guess, that night, Xuan Lingzi looked at Luo Jianqing hesitantly and remained silent for a long time.
Luo Jianqing was even more uneasy.
Along the way, he had been hesitant about whether to tell Xuan Lingzi about his soul transforming into a lotus. As soon as this was revealed, Xuan Lingzi would immediately know that Luo Jianqing was definitely not cultivating the "Nine Lotus Heart Record." Xuan Lingzi's attainments in the "Nine Lotus Heart Record" were extremely high, even praised by Luo Jianqing's master, who said he was probably the best in Yuxiao Peak in the past ten million years, second only to the master Jiulian. So he would know this at a glance.
For Yuxiao Peak, "Nine Lotus Original Heart Record" is its foundation, and it is also what every disciple of Yuxiao Peak must practice. Only by practicing "Nine Lotus Original Heart Record" can one be considered a disciple of Yuxiao Peak.
Luo Jianqing abandoned "Nine Lotus Original Heart Record", which was equivalent to betraying his master. Although Luo Jianqing felt that Xuan Lingzi would not really expel him from the sect for such a thing, this would become a knot between the two of them.
The Record of the Original Mind of the Nine Lotuses is the reason why Yuxiao Peak stands tall on the top of the mountains and holds a transcendent status.
After thinking about it for a few more days, Luo Jianqing finally decided to tell Xuan Lingzi about the matter. However, just as Luo Jianqing had made up his mind, the two of them suddenly felt a terrifying spiritual pressure wave coming from the distant west, sweeping across the mountains, shaking them and cracking the earth.
Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi exchanged a glance, this time no longer concealing their strength. They transformed into two streaks of light and sped towards the source of the spiritual energy explosion. A quarter of an hour later, they had already traveled nearly a hundred miles before finally catching sight of a streak of black fire.
The flames shot up into the sky, scorching the world like hell. The surrounding air was scorched by the terrifying heat, and even space began to deform and distort. The black flames were like a giant mountain. Even from a distance of more than ten miles, Luo Jianqing could feel the scorching heat coming towards him.
He stared at the black flames from afar, looking at them in shock for a long time, and asked, "Is this a demon beast?"
Xuan Lingzi also frowned: "It's not demonic energy, maybe it's a monster."
Luo Jianqing and Xuan Lingzi didn't step forward to stop them, because they had already seen that nine high-level cultivators were fighting against the flames. The realm of the monster beasts was not very easy to detect, but Xuan Lingzi could sense the realm of these cultivators.
"Five people in the Fusion Stage, three in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and... the third elder of the Feihua Sect, a cultivator in the early Mahayana stage, and Fairy Yunxian."
After hearing the realms of these cultivators, Luo Jianqing felt relieved. However, after hearing the last one, Luo Jianqing asked, "Are these people cultivators from Feihua Sect?"
Xuan Lingzi nodded and said, "A hundred years ago, your master once saw Yun Xian on the battlefield between the two clans. He is indeed an elder of the Feihua Sect."
Luo Jianqing thought for a moment and then said, "Although they should be able to deal with this monster, Master, do we need to take action?"
Xuan Lingzi shook his head at first, but nodded after a moment: "Well, no need to do anything."
What followed was a devastating battle.
One Mahayana cultivator, three Tribulation Crossing cultivators and five Fusion cultivators!
Such strength would be awe-inspiring in the entire cultivation world, and their combat power was formidable. However, when faced with this ball of black flame, they did not relax at all. Each of them was vigilant and deployed the Feihua Sect's famous formation - the Hundred Flowers Formation.
Feihua Sect is the only sect among the "one mountain, four sects and eight great families" that is composed entirely of female cultivators.
As one of the four great sects, the Feihua Sect possessed considerable strength. While it was far inferior to the Taihua Mountain Sect and slightly less powerful than the Broken Soul Sect, this group of powerful female cultivators overwhelmed the Guiyuan Sect and the Divine Sword Sect with irresistible force. While the Feihua Sect lacked any exceptionally gifted disciples among its younger generation, they were unable to suppress the Guiyuan Sect's disciples. However, their collective strength was immense.
During the war between the two clans a hundred years ago, Taihua Mountain suffered heavy losses, while the Four Sects fared slightly better, and the Feihua Sect suffered the least. A hundred years ago, they relied on the Hundred Flowers Formation, each time employing dozens, sometimes hundreds, of individuals. That terrifying killing formation crushed countless demonic beasts, its strength as hard as a tortoise shell and its attacks as powerful as a sword.
"Although there are nine high-level cultivators, the Hundred Flowers Formation performed by them doesn't seem to be very effective," Luo Jianqing whispered. "Rumor has it that the more people there are, the better the effect. If we can gather a hundred Mahayana cultivators, it seems they could kill a powerful late-stage Spirit Transformation cultivator!"
Xuan Lingzi responded softly.
Luo Jianqing asked: "Master, is this true?"
Xuan Lingzi said, "Even if we add together all the demon race venerables and human race venerables, there are less than fifty of them."
Luo Jianqing smiled and said, "It seems that this is indeed the case. If a hundred powerful beings in the Spiritualization Stage work together to perform the Hundred Flowers Formation, they might be able to kill the immortal!"
Over there, the battle has entered a white-hot stage.
The Feihua Sect elders, dressed in pale yellow, wore solemn expressions as they united to unleash the sect's grand formation, the Hundred Flowers Formation. As the formation unfolded, it was as if a hundred flowers were in full bloom, their rich, fragrant scent filling the air. Petals, formed from spiritual energy, gently danced in the air. They were light and agile, seemingly harmless, but when they reached the black flames, they were like sharp blades, swiftly slicing through the flames and darting into them.
