Chapter 409 Attracting Spiritual Energy
But above all, the four men who were at the Great Ascension realm were a pain in the ass.
Their strengths and their experiences made things difficult for them, further lengthening this kind of battle that should not have lasted so long.
And then there was the coldly beautiful woman who, even though she was at the Separation and Reunion realm, could almost hold her own against ordinary cultivators at the Great Ascension level.
The other women were far from easy either. Each of them also had a powerful strength that shouldn\'t match their current cultivation bases.
Although they had weakened and suppressed five people, it seemed that it was still not enough to decimate them all.
20 Immortals attacked, executing their secret techniques as they calmly watched people falling, tiring, wearing themselves out beyond measure. The more than 10 Immortals who were left behind were still recovering from their wounds; some were in such a bad state that at any moment they could lose their cultivation base.
Many people stood on the walls of Star City, watching the battle unfold from afar. A gloomy and heavily troubling atmosphere hung over everyone. Everyone knew that those powerful beings who could also fly were evil, relentlessly attacking the group of Goddesses in the city.
Nor would it go without saying that it was an utterly terrible battle, with destruction all around. Even the powerful and fierce energies as they collided with each other could be felt all the way to the site, leaving everyone stunned on the spot.
"Jung Du, give me all the formation plates you have." Hong Zhong looked at Jung Du, extending his hand towards him. His expression had a frown on it as he watched the talismans in the air. He then looked towards the tree in the distance that was still collecting spiritual energy and a smirk crossed his face.
Jung Du nodded and soon took out several plates of formations, flags and more.
Hong Zhong made a quick adjustment to the materials and quickly threw them around in a great distance, covering both his group and the others and forming a huge circle around them.
Once these formation flags fell, the attraction of the world energy soon began to gather within the circle within seconds, drawing in more Chi and then feeding into the talismans that were in the air.
"Hurry up and finish this. The formation is already activated for you to use a stronger technique and end this. But don\'t kill any of the women! The one who dares to do so will be killed by me myself!"
Hong Zhong\'s voice expanded to everyone, letting them know what he had done.
The Immortals who were attacking grinned evilly as they suddenly increased the intensity and strength of their techniques, urging to pour more immortal essence into every attack they made. The others continued their recovery, thanking Hong Zhong for the increased spiritual energy so that they could recover soon.
"Senior Hong, if you do that you might have interrupted the process for the tree to become a natural resource with spirit..." Jung Du spoke once he felt the energy collecting towards them, instantly noticing that this energy was the one that went to the tree that was far away from there.
"I\'d rather recover in a few decades than several centuries, so it would be better to do this. Besides, what good would a natural treasure do us if we can\'t get out of here, delaying our healing and dying over time?" Hong Zhong replied as he drew Chi energy into his body, while refining a powerful medicinal pill and accelerating in progress gradually.
Jung Du nodded and did not respond, having the same thought as Hong Zhong.
What good would a natural treasure do them if they couldn\'t use it in the end?
It would be better if they recovered greatly and have a better chance to return to the Immortal World. If they chose to do nothing and just try to recover with the meager energy in the environment, it would take them up to thousands of years to recover, that is if their injuries don\'t worsen.
Besides, there would only be one natural treasure at the end and obviously no one was going to want to give it up easily.
"Brother Xiang, take care of them, I\'ll seize the moment!" Shin Wei finally successfully chopped the man he was dealing with as he was suddenly distracted.
Sun Xiang nodded and increased his power by another layer, fiercely striking his opponent and knocking him back, doing the same to two more.
Shin Wei instantly moved to where Ying Chen was, swinging his sword and killing one of the enemy!
The sudden change in the atmosphere by collecting spiritual energy had surprised most, rejoicing at being able to use their slightly stronger energies to attack.
After all, they all knew about the instability of the world and if they forced the attacks and tried to use all their power, they could destroy this world. Therefore, they had been holding back and so they rejoiced at being able to use more force as their targets would not give up.
However, Hao Zhentian and Ying Cheng had also not used all their strength, so when they sensed the slightest change in aura and spiritual Chi gathering, they suddenly exploded one more layer of power and killed 3 men consecutively!
Yun Mengxin was not far behind and killed 5 people out of all those who besieged her; only cultivators with a stronger cultivation base than her managed to survive the sudden change in her attack patterns and speed.
If Hao Zhentian and Ying Chen were fighting against few powerful cultivators who showed superior strength, then Yun Mengxin was in constant fight against more than 5 cultivators who had a cultivation level more or less on par with her and even slightly higher.
Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya were also facing more than two Immortals, and even managing to fight together every chance they got while Tang Wanying shot the powerful arrows to help them and reduce the burden!
A few more were seriously injured and few were killed, proving that they had been confident and even surprised by the fighting level of these people despite belonging to a small world. However, they still showed expressions of ridicule and disdain.
But now that they had killed some Immortals, it seemed that this had not affected the others, as they continued to attack with a much more powerful strength than before!
Yun Mengxin frowned when an icy cold expression appeared on her face as she quickly comprehended the formation that had been deployed in a matter of a second, to which she couldn\'t help but worry if this could have a severe affect on Ling Tian. After all, the energy that should be gathering in the world spirit tree was now heading towards this place.
In a matter of seconds, the place became more stable and more filled with Chi spirit, giving everyone a sense of well-being.
Nevertheless, a huge image of a mountain was created in a matter of seconds, threatening to crash into them at any moment!
"Brother!" Hao Zhentian warned Ying Chen and the latter quickly nodded his head with tacit understanding.
Hao Zhentian and Ying Chen poured more of their cultivation essences into their swords to break the attack heading towards them. They quickly slashed in the direction towards the mountain.
* BOOM! *
* CRACK!!! *
A huge, long crack formed, cutting through the place and stretching for several kilometers!
The world shook again!
Earthquakes, destruction of mountains and rivers occurred instantly!
GRRR!
GROAR!
The ferocious roars of hundreds of demonic beasts were heard from all directions as they began to emerge from the space cracks that had formed in a few seconds!
Yet, most of the demonic beasts would die instantly as they were destroyed by the horrible force coming from the void before they could completely come out of the space rifts!
But the moment they thought it would be over, powerful spiritual senses spread throughout the place, straining everyone\'s nerves as they sensed this immortal force.
Some quickly took advantage of this commotion and tried to get a head start, but the place became much more chaotic.
"Looks like you guys are having trouble with some ants, hahaha."
"What happened, junior martial brothers? You guys look pathetic."
Then, several seconds later, arrogant voices came from afar, startling everyone who was fighting as they quickly glanced in a specific direction.
The image of a ferocious dragon began to manifest from afar, creating a ghost of the same dragon that was becoming more noticeable.
An incredible and powerful force burst forth from the phantom in a matter of seconds!
Then they saw them, two men who had handsome faces, clearly above average for the magical world and looking about 30 years old. However, the faces of these two men bore a clear resemblance to each other, clearly almost twin brothers who gave off a cold arrogance and disdain.
There were even more than 20 more immortal cultivators coming after the two of them.
But the appearance and clothes of these newcomers were also a mess, with wounds on the surface of their bodies, showing that they were also completely wounded, especially the two twins; their faces were completely pale while their auras were altered to the naked eye.
"Senior Martial Brother!" Hong Zhong shouted excitedly, a bright smile on his face at the sight of these two people.
One of the twins waved his hand and the giant dragon that had formed fell on the entire group of Yun Mengxin and Hao Zhentian, and then, the other twin also created an image of another dragon, a flood dragon crashing on the other side of the group, trying to crush them from both sides!
