Chapter 212 : Sword Immortal Technique, Second Layer
In the eyes of these sword fanatics, this place was a natural training ground. If injured, one wouldn't be teleported out—one could truly die! Wasn't this far more thrilling than those small-scale trials in the sect?
The Tianyan Sect disciples, who had originally planned to hide in the formation, couldn't help but feel their blood boiling as they watched. They never imagined that the Lingqing Sect disciples would be so proactive! So hardworking! So dedicated! So intense and competitive!!!
They were, after all, from the number one sect in the cultivation world... Well, perhaps they weren't the number one sect anymore, but at the very least, they were still among the top three major sects, and one specializing in sword cultivation. How could they fall behind Lingqing Sect, a comprehensive sect?
No, they had to fight too. They had to break through!
Immediately, they stopped meditating and resting. After hastily swallowing pills, they picked up their swords and left the formation, engaging in battle with the desert mad scorpions outside! Unyielding and indomitable, they fought with increasing vigor!
This display of motivation left even Mo Qingchen stunned for a moment.
As the Big Senior Brother, he had supervised these junior brothers and sisters in their practice for quite some time. There were always a few who slacked off, but this was the first time he had seen them so united and in sync...
Indeed, these Lingqing Sect people were truly infectious, somehow stirring up the atmosphere.
Seeing this, many disciples from other sects also voluntarily left the formation to temper their dao hearts through battle. They went out high-spirited and came back like defeated roosters, yet seeing those freaks from Lingqing Sect still fighting so enthusiastically? Gritting their teeth, they continued! One more competitive than the other, as if vying to see who could push themselves the hardest.
They fought like this for three days and three nights straight, and they actually managed to clear out most of the sand scorpions in the area. Towards the end, the desert mad scorpions were even struggling to regenerate. Many disciples had consolidated their cultivation considerably through this high-intensity battle, and two disciples who had been stuck at a bottleneck for years even broke through to a new minor realm.
"Speaking of which, weren't you supposed to be looking for the Earth Beast King's palace? Why have you been lingering in this place? Are you trapped?" Chu Sang looked at the endless yellow sand surrounding them. There were no buildings in sight; the beast king's palace couldn't possibly be here.
"The beast king's palace is very well-hidden. We actually searched the entire Endless Desolate Region several days ago but couldn't find the palace's location. However, logically speaking, the deeper we go, the higher the level of beast demons. So the beast king's palace should be somewhere nearby," Mo Qingchen said.
As soon as they finished speaking, the yellow sand beneath their feet suddenly began to converge towards one spot. Seeing this, everyone quickly scattered.
An increasingly large vortex appeared in the open space, frantically swallowing the yellow sand. Even many of the recently regenerated desert mad scorpions were swept in. At the center of the vortex, a behemoth appeared—an extremely large desert mad scorpion. Judging by its size... it was likely the Scorpion King.
Tens of thousands of desert mad scorpions gathered together, and the Scorpion King's body grew larger and larger until it blotted out the sky! It pressed down on everyone, leaving them in a cold sweat, unsure how to deal with this sudden behemoth.
With the experience gained from battling numerous desert mad scorpions over the past few days and having grasped some of the weaknesses of this type of beast demon, although everyone was internally panicking, they were, after all, disciples from major sects. They quickly adjusted their state and threw themselves into battle.
On the surface, the battle situation seemed to favor the Scorpion King. They were on the defensive, constantly dodging. But looking closely, they hadn't lost a single person, while the Scorpion King's body was covered in numerous wounds, and the speed of its giant pincers was getting slower and slower.
"Boom—"
!!!
A thunderous roar, dust flying everywhere.
Chu Sang dodged while frantically burying formations and talismans in the ground. The Scorpion King, exhausted from being worn down, didn't notice her small actions at all. Now, various high-grade talismans and formations, along with buried landmines, all exploded simultaneously. Magical attacks and physical attacks struck together. No matter how formidable this Scorpion King was, if it didn't die, it would at least lose a layer of skin!
This wave of operations caused significant damage to the Scorpion King, but Chu Sang knew well that it wouldn't be enough to inflict a fatal wound.
It seemed she had no choice but to use that move.
The girl held her long sword, her robes fluttering. She coldly uttered,
"Sword Immortal Technique, Second Layer, Activate!"
