Chapter 564: Chapter 467: Blitz on Minglong Mountain (Part 2)

Although he shouted like this, his heart was ice-cold.

He had just received the enemy attack warning from Yanghua Mountain, and the enemy was already here!

I fear that our Zhenren have only just set out from Yanghua Mountain and won’t make it in time!

Guh Niqiang didn’t waste any words; her fists clenched, the Golden Core within her dantian radiating light, and the spiritual power around her surged like a tide as she immediately activated the previously unusable cultivation technique.

Third Layer of the Golden Crow Great Derivation True Technique: Golden Crow Pseudo-Body!

A fierce screech resounded through the firmament, as cyan flames erupted around Guh Niqiang, surging and coalescing into form.

Bones, meridians, fascia, flesh, feathers... layer upon layer, fold upon fold. Within the blink of an eye, a three-legged Divine Bird thirty zhang long came into being.

The innumerable feathers gleamed like swords, blazing with resplendent fire, the three talons hooked, stepping on cyan smoke clouds. The Sun Divine Bird screeched at the sky, spread its wings, and cyan flames poured down like a torrential rain!

This was more than ten times more solid and powerful than the former second layer Golden Crow Illusion.

Amidst the vast meteor fire rain, the Golden Crow’s wings trembled, diving downwards, and its thirty-zhang-long body crashed onto the Six Harmonies Grand Array like a comet!

A thunderous boom echoed as immense cyan fire waves soared skyward, engulfing the entire peak, the intense heat igniting vegetation and incinerating animals.

The Six Harmonies Grand Array was shattered in an instant, and the Three-Legged Divine Bird rushed inward, its wings vibrating and spreading outward, shattering the entire array like glass.

With just one strike, it completely destroyed the Mountain Protection Grand Array of Minglong Mountain!

The Foundation Establishment Feather Scholar hadn’t even reacted before everything in front of him became a blur, cyan light surged, and he was caught in the Golden Crow’s sharp claws.

He screamed in terror, using every Defensive Spiritual Artifact, Attack Spiritual Artifact, and Dao Pattern he had, but in the next moment, flames erupted from the Golden Crow’s claws, tightening heavily.

With a loud blast, the commander stationed at Minglong Mountain was pinched into charcoal!

The two hundred-plus Qi Cultivation Elites of Minglong Mountain had only just gathered, with two to three hundred Initial-Tier Cultivators shivering under the pressure of the Golden Core, some fleeing helplessly, others collapsing to the ground, some banding together for warmth, or crashing around like headless flies.

Minglong Mountain was in complete disarray!

Lu Qian flew in, his Divine Sense sweeping over the scene with both shock and joy. Indeed, his original plan was too conservative; the existing defensive forces of Minglong Mountain were as frail as paper before a Golden Core Master, before Guh Niqiang.

"Master Yeguang is severely injured, you have no hope!" Lu Qian shouted loudly, his voice echoing at the peak of Minglong Mountain, "Flee, flee! Don’t seek death here!"

Meanwhile, as the Golden Crow’s wings flashed, a deafening explosion rang through the air, and encased in roaring flames, it charged into the hastily ascended formation of over two hundred Qi Cultivation Elites.

Firewaves crashed like tides as the Golden Crow’s wings flapped, and a vortex of flame soared a hundred zhang high, swallowing up the chaotic magical artifacts, magic techniques, and talismans that were coming its way, as well as the cultivators within the hundred-zhang range who couldn’t escape in time.

With another tremor, the vortex suddenly exploded outwards, hundreds of Flame Feathers shooting forth like a storm, striking all around. Defensive Spiritual Artifacts and techniques were shattered with ease, burning their owners into charred corpses in the process.

In just three or four breaths, a vast area around the Golden Crow was cleared, with forty to fifty Qi Cultivators already perished!

Before a Golden Core, Qi Cultivators are like ants!

Dozens of Qi Cultivators, if coordinated effectively, can pose a threat to a Foundation Establishment Feathered Scholar. In theory, several hundred Qi Cultivators attacking together, with their hundreds of magical artifacts combined, could make even a Golden Core Master temporarily retreat from the edge.

But in reality, commanding dozens to act in unison is relatively simple, whereas coordinating hundreds to attack and defend simultaneously is exceedingly difficult unless they’ve been trained for a long time in collaboration.

Moreover, the escape speed of a Golden Core far exceeds the reaction of Qi Cultivators. Whether like Guh Niqiang directly charging into the formation and slaughtering from within, or maneuvering to dodge directly, the Qi Cultivators can barely touch a strand of a Golden Core Master’s hair.

In fact, merely gathering the spiritual power to launch an attack against such overwhelming spiritual pressure is already a remarkable feat for Qi Cultivators!

Unless they possess a Battle Array and other secret techniques to unite their strength, two to three hundred Qi Cultivators stand no chance against a Golden Core Master.

Especially now that the commander of Minglong Mountain is dead, Guh Niqiang moves with lightning speed, disrupting the formation and leaving these Qi Cultivators with no hope of victory!

With a sweep of the Golden Crow’s wings, flying spiritual artifacts exploded in mid-air, feathers flying everywhere, and heaps of cultivators were incinerated into charred corpses as disorderly attacks from the defenders failed to breach the Golden Crow’s defense.

In the depths of despair, Lu Qian’s shouts were heard again, the desire for survival overwhelming everything, and a large number of cultivators screamed in fear, beginning to flee in all directions.

Those low-tier cultivators who couldn’t even manage their magical artifacts were either rushing into the flying spiritual artifacts of their seniors crying for their parents or running headlong down the mountain, with some even kneeling and kowtowing on the ground, begging for mercy.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the resistance on Minglong Mountain was completely dismantled!

Coming to realize anew the terrifying might of a Golden Core Master, Lu Qian stood before the Spirit Vein. This third-level high-tier Spirit Vein was located mid-level on Dragon Head Peak and had a peculiar external appearance, manifesting as a human head-sized Treasure Pearl emanating a dazzling bright light.

Abundant spiritual qi spurted out, forming a thick spiritual mist around the Treasure Pearl, making the surroundings feel like a gentle drizzle was falling; under the sun’s rays, rainbows appeared, dreamy and wondrous.
