Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 355 - 297: I’ll Go Get Reinforcements for You
"Surround and kill together!"
For something that can continuously extend its life with its remaining parts, You Li’s first thought was to encircle and kill.
If an instantaneous attack could cover them, surely these creatures would be annihilated.
Those reckless cultivators had already shown the terrifying traits of these monsters; such creatures must not be allowed to spread, or else the entire Nanling City would surely be devoured.
All of the cultivators from the Nanli Sword Studio simultaneously spread out into a circle, and the cultivators from the two divisions also joined in.
"Cover everything with True Essence!"
But before they could act, the fifty odd fallen cultivators scrambled to their feet and let out a piercing scream.
"Concentrate! Shut off the five senses, stabilize your mind!"
You Li’s expression changed, quickly raising her voice.
This scream was strangely peculiar, having fallen for it once before, she dared not be careless.
A group of cultivators hastily formed seals to guide their True Essence to steady their minds and then sealed off all five senses. After You Li made a hand gesture for action, multicolored lights burst out simultaneously.
"Heavy Rain!"
"Pear Blossoms!"
Under the joint strike of the Nanli Sword Studio lineage, pear blossoms and golden rain filled the sky, and with the cultivators from the two divisions using various cultivation techniques, the gathering of True Essence resembled a thick cloud layer.
For a moment, combined together it was as though golden raindrops were pouring down on pear blossoms under the rainbow clouds.
Its power was indeed earth-shattering, with nearly six hundred Divine Gaze Realm cultivators attacking in unison, striking the ground and instantly causing a booming explosion that made all of Nanling City tremble.
Bai Xiangdong arrived flying just in time to see this scene, extremely shocked. He had thought the Inspectorate and Nanli Sword Studio might collaborate this time.
But he hadn’t expected such a large setup from both sides; six hundred Divine Gaze Realm cultivators was already a considerable force.
To bring out so many Divine Gaze Realm cultivators, whether it was the Fifth Tower or Nanli Sword Studio, both were exceedingly bold.
In comparison to his own Dragon and Phoenix Palace...
It’s no wonder the Inspectorate decided to change locations.
You Li also noticed the sudden arrival of a figure at this moment. The strange posture caught her attention, almost causing her to stab her Flying Sword when she looked up and saw the other’s face.
Bai Xiangdong naturally noticed her too, his eyes suddenly brightened. He had seen the appearance of the Nanli Saintess, You Li, before, so he had placed her in the third position.
However, the aggressive look in her eyes surprised him; it didn’t seem like a friendly signal?
Was the ranking too low?
But she was already in the top three, wasn’t she?
Moreover, he felt a peculiar sense of familiarity, as if he had seen that look somewhere before.
For some reason, a certain feeling of guilt stirred in him when faced with this look.
"Look quickly!"
At this time, a cultivator exclaimed in surprise, pointing in horror below.
The ravaged ground was already unrecognizable, and even the idle houses around it had become ruins.
Yet amidst such scenes, the devastated land held nothing!
Under the moonlight, only their shadows were cast on the ground.
Those were their own shadows.
But those very shadows began to move.
"Our shadows are moving!"
Someone saw their own shadow twitching and cried out in panic.
"It’s not our shadows moving, something is hidden within them and is coming out..."
Someone keenly noticed the difference and quickly spoke.
Under the constant twisting of shadows, figures reappeared; still those controlled individuals, standing unscathed in their original places.
At this moment, hundreds of heads simultaneously tilted up, opening their mouths toward the sky, spewing streams of black liquid.
"Form rank!"
You Li’s face turned icy, issuing a sharp command.
A giant barrier immediately unfolded, covering the entire sky.
Countless droplets of liquid struck the protective shield harmlessly, then fell back to the ground.
These newly spawned little monsters were not persistent in confrontations; rather, they spread rapidly in all directions, and the area they spread to was Nanling City as a whole.
"This is bad! They intend to spread."
You Li’s face grew cold, taking the lead herself, her True Essence surging.
"Heavy Rain Pear Blossoms!"
This is the combined move of the Nanli Sword Stance, known for its great power but also great consumption. However, at this moment, there’s no other choice.
She single-handedly pursued in mid-air, wherever she was, there was wind and rain.
Her innate ability to multitask allowed her to precisely distribute this move to strike every nook and corner.
But she was alone, how could she deal with these endless monsters? She pursued, but the pile of puppets controlled by the monsters behind her kept spewing, continuously, as if without end.
Bai Xiangdong frowned, with such monsters spreading, not to mention ordinary people, even cultivators might not withstand it.
Gritting his teeth, he joined the group of cultivators.
The strange stance of "White Crane Spreads Wings" drew odd looks, but at this moment, no one had the mind to care about such things.
It wasn’t long before he realized something was wrong. Holding on like this wasn’t a solution; the pressure on You Li’s side was increasing, and the slaughter seemed endless.
"It’s no use in this autumn chill. Let’s work together to transform this protective shield into a trapping array to suppress them, forcing them to split and escape."
Bai Xiangdong’s proposal instantly awakened many cultivators, and with nods of agreement, they exerted their strength together, causing the shield to expand, becoming like a giant, half-round water tank.
"Suppress!"
In unison, they shouted, and as the large shield descended, a thunderous noise echoed as it quickly covered like an overturned bowl.
The pressure on You Li’s side suddenly reduced, feeling puzzled, she hastily glanced back, only to understand that the other side had trapped the puppets.
Not daring to delay, she once again engaged in a chase with these small monsters amid a storm of attacks.
"No good! Can’t hold on."
That side held on, but trouble began again on this side.
Bai Xiangdong’s intention was good, but he couldn’t imagine what it would mean for the entire shield to be filled with these liquids.
Now, with nowhere for the newly emerged liquid monsters to go, they began to accumulate, and as their numbers grew, they started to impact the shield.
A series of loud noises continuously struck the shield, occasionally causing it to tremble.
"Quickly send a distress call to the sect for aid."
The Nanli senior brother, who had earlier taken charge, was desperately holding on, but he realized in shock that it wouldn’t be long, perhaps no more than a quarter of an hour, before these things could no longer be contained.
A cultivator gritted his teeth and swiftly flew out, hurriedly releasing a communication bird.
"Heaven places a heavy burden on this person, you all hold on, I’ll go seek help for you."
Bai Xiangdong, watching the scene, estimated that this group of people wouldn’t hold on, left a hasty remark, and flew off with "White Crane Spreads Wings."
However, just a few breaths later, he awkwardly flew back.
"To ask the resident, are there any government office cultivators here? Does anyone know where Han Yu lives?"
-----------------
Not to mention the huge commotion in Nanling City, the group from the Self-Improvement Sect had already been alarmed when these puppets attacked the residential area.
It must be said that the civilian was unlucky, his room was conveniently the first one up the stairs, and when the puppets pushed open the door, he was the first they found.
When seven or eight puppets crowded at the doorway, the civilian was already awakened. When these puppets split into a dozen monsters, he was almost scared to death.
These familiar ghostly things, how could they resemble those things from the Earth Palace?
In a brief confrontation, as his two daggers slashed the liquid creatures to pieces, only for them to continue wriggling towards him, he didn’t contemplate further and immediately turned to crash through the adjoining wall.
The thunderous crash also startled his cousin awake. Not yet comprehending the situation, the civilian dragged him along to continue crashing through the wall.
Directly bursting into Han Yu’s room, he finally felt a bit of relief from mortal danger.
Safety was here!
Han Yu was also awakened by the noise, opening his eyes to see the collapsed wall, accompanied by the anxious and bewildered expressions on the civilian and his cousin’s faces.
"Quickly save us, the thing from the Earth Palace has appeared here,"
The civilian rapidly described the earlier scene, affirming with certainty.
Then, unable to contain his shock, exclaimed, "Oh no, I wonder if Yi Xian and Coconut are okay?"
Han Yu quickly spoke, "You go protect them, I’ll handle things here."
As his words fell, the monster described by the civilian had already multiplied to forty or fifty, each the size of a bowl’s mouth.
At a glance, the Artifact Spirit spoke directly in the Sea of Consciousness, "Damn, it’s really it."
This thing that Han Yu was certain had been exhausted to death, how could it appear again here?
"Could it be mistaken?"
He had just started to doubt when he got his answer the next moment.
These small things twisted as soon as they reached him, continually changing shape, and finally revealing mouths, hissing at him relentlessly.
Hah, it was indeed it; this posture of bravado but lacking true substance wasn’t just similar, it was identical.
The next moment! As if coordinated, these things all rushed at him simultaneously...
