Incredible Sect Simulator-Chapter 514 - 482: Great Victory

The matter of Lu Yuanshan beheading Han Yuanqing of the Fuyao Sect was known to all the cultivators battling in the Southern Wilderness. They all discussed it at length.

When they complained about Lu Yuanshan daring to attack a Fuyao Sect cultivator, they were also wary of Lu Yuanshan’s strength.

This caused, ever since Lu Yuanshan beheaded Han Yuanqing, all cultivators below the Crystallization Stage in the Southern Wilderness Battlefield to be extremely wary of Lu Yuanshan and not willing to provoke him.

It turns out that Lu Zhiwei is actually Lu Yuanshan’s younger sister.

A small Cyan Mountain Sect surprisingly has two such extraordinary people.

As Guo Qingxu was pondering this, several demon beasts surrounded him and launched an attack.

"Hmph!"

Guo Qingxu shouted loudly, quickly mobilizing his flying sword to fight back, his movements somewhat hasty and embarrassed.

Compared to Lu Zhiwei’s calm demeanor, moving effortlessly among the demon beast group with extraordinary combat power, Guo Qingxu was far behind.

As he swung back to defend, although his movements were fairly swift and clean, he managed to fend off the attacks from several demon beasts.

However, this caused him to curse inwardly, "Why aren’t these demon beasts attacking Lu Zhiwei and showing off their prowess here with me!"

Shua!

The deep blue sword light shot into the sky, appearing extremely brilliant and dazzling on the battlefield.

Lu Zhiwei wielded the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword, slaughtering in all directions. For those Tier Two demon beasts, at most, two strikes would easily kill them.

Such terrifying combat power made all the demon beasts present extremely fearful, not daring to take the initiative to attack Lu Zhiwei and instead avoiding her from afar.

Therefore, Guo Qingxu’s complaints were utterly futile.

"Elder is indeed an Elder, so strong, so dashing!"

Song Minghui had long noticed Lu Zhiwei’s extraordinary combat power, and at this moment, being full of admiration, her heart was filled with excitement.

Lu Zhiwei being able to display such a powerful side made her extremely proud and happy in her heart.

The other disciples of the Cyan Mountain Sect were either focused on slaying demon beasts or occasionally paying attention to the dynamics of the battlefield.

The group of demon beasts battled with Lu Zhiwei and others for two or three hours. Finally, when the beasts were beaten into scattering and fleeing, the battle came to an end.

"Phew..."

As the last dozens of demon beasts fled in desperation, many cultivators present let out a long sigh of relief.

After two or three hours of battle, everyone felt exhausted at this time, and more than half of their magical artifacts had been consumed.

Many cultivators secretly took elixirs during the battle to restore their Qi Blood Magical Power.

After finishing the battle and recovering his strength slightly through meditation, Guo Qingxu chatted with Lu Zhiwei, Zhao Mingyuan, and Liu Hanshuang for a while, during which he inquired about the origins of Liu Hanshuang and Zhao Mingyuan.

Having gotten acquainted, Guo Qingxu opened his mouth to express his gratitude, "Being able to repel the demon beast group this time and save our lives is thanks to the timely assistance of you fellow Daoists."

The goods they were transporting were mainly elixirs and magical artifacts, used to supply the cultivators stationed at strategic key locations.

The destination was three strategic strongholds near the Southern Wilderness forest.

Upon hearing this, Liu Hanshuang responded with a faint smile.

Out of politeness, she responded a few words before asking, "Daoist Guo, with your team’s strength, how did it happen that strategic resource transportation encountered a demon beast group siege?"

It’s well known that, according to convention, every team transporting strategic resources will dispatch two to three cultivators to scout around, playing the role of reconnaissance.

The purpose of this is to discern the surrounding terrain, more efficiently assist the team in advancing, and avoid demon beast activity areas, enabling faster and more efficient transportation of strategic resources to the designated locations.

And during their actions, these teams would also explore the surrounding situation, demon beast distribution, and condition of battle fortresses, reporting in real-time to the Dubhe Institute.

Thus, while transporting resources is one aspect, understanding enemy situations surrounding them is also a very important task.

The Dubhe Institute does not use flying ships to transport resources for this reason.

Given the strength of Guo Qingxu’s team, with three late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators and over two hundred Qi Cultivators, as long as they thoroughly examined the surrounding situation on the way, upon encountering strong or large groups of demon beasts, they should simply avoid them.

How would they end up in predicaments, being surrounded and hunted by a large group of demon beasts?

The role of scouts was evidently inadequately performed.

Faced with Liu Hanshuang’s inquiry, Zhao Mingyuan, Lu Zhiwei, and others around were also very curious, wanting to know the reason behind it.

Guo Qingxu pondered for a while and sighed slightly, "You fellow Daoists may not know, since the third wave of large-scale beast tides broke out, those demon beasts seem to have a strategist, not only learning to conduct reconnaissance like us and exploring surrounding situations, but also the strength of the demon beast group is getting stronger."

"The reconnaissance cultivators we sent out have repeatedly been ambushed by demon birds, whose strength is generally Tier Two High-Grade."

Upon hearing this, Liu Hanshuang and Zhao Mingyuan furrowed their brows, finding it rather strange.

The demon beasts acting in such a manner, with orderly combat operations, obviously indicates that there’s a high-tier intelligent demon beast directing actions, which was something not heard of since the Southern Wilderness war began.

Prior to this, there were clear indications of where the demon beast groups would emerge, so it wasn’t like demon beasts would start using ambush tactics.

And the increase in strength of the demon beast group was something Liu Hanshuang and Zhao Mingyuan had also sensed recently.

Take Zhao Mingyuan, for instance, who had taken up the task assigned by the Dubhe Institute, leading a team to station at Gourd Town. During this short period of stationing, they were attacked by a powerful demon beast group.

Therefore, he had to send a distress signal to the Dubhe Institute, prompting Liu Hanshuang to lead a team for support.

The situation on the Southern Wilderness Battlefield is becoming increasingly intense and critical. The strength of the demon beasts has noticeably increased, making them harder to tackle than before.

After chatting a bit more about the demon beast group, Guo Qingxu and others resumed their journey.

The surrounding demon beast corpses were naturally collected by each, as none would be wasted.

"Daoist Lu, that blue flying sword you wielded earlier, is it your Lifebound Flying Sword?"

On the way back to Gourd Town, Liu Hanshuang couldn’t help but ask, still quite interested in the Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword.

Lu Zhiwei, not being talkative or liking to say much, simply nodded slightly.

It was Zhao Mingyuan beside her who joked, "Daoist Liu, is this an attempt to join the Cyan Mountain Sect? Daoist Lu’s flying sword techniques earlier truly earned my admiration."

Liu Hanshuang gave Zhao Mingyuan a sidelong glance, "I already have a sect."

Zhao Mingyuan gave a wry smile and didn’t say anything more on the matter.

Upon returning to Gourd Town, everyone continued to guard the place, dealing with the occasional appearance of demon beasts.

Lu Ping, using the advantage of his consciousness body, began scouting around, searching for traces of demon beasts.

Within a hundred miles outside Gourd Town, numerous Tier One and Tier Two demon beasts roamed, wandering, foraging, and resting.

Lu Ping marked these locations, dispatching Lu Zhiwei to kill these demon beasts to earn Battle Merit Points.
