You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?.

Chapter 388 Earth God
The face of the Void Refinement cultivator who was insulted by Baili Yun instantly turned ashen.

Normally, if anyone dared to insult him like that, he would kill them with a swift movement. Although a strong person has a good mentality, he is not someone that can be insulted by any monsters or demons.

However, if the one who uttered the insults was Baili Yun, it would be a different story. Especially when he saw the demonic blade that suddenly grew to the point of blotting out the sky and the aura it carried that could cleave through heaven and earth and destroy everything, he could only suppress his anger and devote all his attention to the battle to come.

This person, worthy of being a cultivator who has reached the Void Refinement stage in this world, immediately entered his optimal combat state.

The only thing that cannot be changed is that the previous spirit of unity and determination has disappeared, and the courage to fight to the death together is gone.

They each harbored their own ulterior motives and were driven by self-interest. Once their bravado was shattered, how could they possibly remain as they were before? Even if they were willing to fight to the death, what about the enemy?
The cultivator at the Void Refinement stage also realized this, so he also didn't want Baili Yun to continue speaking.

So they also chose to take action. Now, only by breaking the momentum of the Demon Blade Baili Yun and regaining the support of the people can they have a greater chance of winning this battle.

"Fight if you want, what are you afraid of?" The cultivator's eyes narrowed, and then, with the help of the array's power, a piece of cloth radiating a holy yellow light also surged, simultaneously unleashing a heavy aura like a vast land, while also carrying a strange suction force.

"It's the Earth God's divine power of the earth!"

"It is said that the Earth God once forcibly absorbed the attacks of two Void Refinement cultivators with a single divine power, and that was not even the limit of that divine power!"

The cultivators behind the Earth God felt a strange sense of security as they looked at his majestic figure.

Under the cover of the cloth, Baili Yun's aura was completely blocked out, and the aura of the Earth God's supernatural powers naturally made people feel stable and at ease.

However, this is not the end.

At the same moment, the Earth God's body suddenly swelled up, growing to several thousand feet in the blink of an eye, and it didn't stop growing. His body also radiated the sacred radiance of the earth, surrounded by mysterious and powerful earth spiritual energy.

At the same time, an incredibly huge and solid earth-colored armor also rose up from the Earth God.

Endless earth power emerged across the land like veins, continuously flowing into the Earth God's body and armor.

"What is this? What a terrifying method!"

"Is this a way of connecting oneself with the entire earth? One can use the power of the earth to empower and replenish oneself, and at the same time, one can use the earth to disperse one's own power. This supernatural power is too strong! It seems we have never seen the Earth God Lord use it before?"

"This should be the Earth God's trump card, I think it's called the True Body of the Earth? It seems the Earth God used this ability in his early years, but in all these years, no one has been able to force him to take this step!"

"I see. In that case, our chances of victory have increased!"

"Quickly! We must do everything in our power to assist the Earth God!"

After this divine power called True Body of Earth appeared, its aura actually surpassed that of Baili Yun's Demon Blade!

So, inspired by this momentum, their fighting spirit was greatly rekindled.

With the support of these people, the pressure emanating from the Earth God's massive body became increasingly powerful!

The Earth God, sensing this situation, smiled; this was exactly the situation he wanted.

He would never have revealed this supernatural power unless in a critical situation, but now he has no choice but to use it.

Fortunately, he was fairly satisfied with the result.

Now, as long as they can withstand this wave and hold out until the cultivators from Tianlong Continent return with their people, they can turn defense into offense!
Moreover, he now has an even more powerful backup plan: after using the Earth True Body technique, he has connected a large portion of the earth veins to his body. As long as his technique is broken, the earth veins will also be severely damaged!

Didn't you all want to stay here and live and die with this place?
Let's see if you dare to break my supernatural power!
"Come on!" roared the Earth God!

"Interesting. I didn't expect you to be so well-hidden!" A hint of surprise flashed through Baili Yun's mind.

But the knife in his hand did not stop; instead, the fighting spirit and determination in his eyes burned even brighter!

That's it?

What does it matter if the earth's veins are slightly damaged as long as this guy is killed?

No road is ever smooth sailing, and no price is ever unpaid. In his view, eliminating the enemy before him was the most important thing!
"madman!"

When the Earth God saw Baili Yun, whose aura was even stronger, he cursed under his breath and even froze slightly, but this did not affect the power of his move.

In an instant, the demonic blade, imbued with the intent of ultimate annihilation, cleaved through the void, striking the Earth God's cloth and supernatural powers with unparalleled force.

As the moves clashed, the entire world suddenly fell silent and still, all sound and energy were annihilated in that instant!
It wasn't until quite some time later that the massive and terrifying energy fluctuations and the deafening roar of destruction were heard.

It took a while for everyone's senses to return to normal after that energy that had been annihilating all perception.

When people saw the results of the battle clearly, they were completely stunned by the scene!
Because the demonic blade that destroyed everything seemed to have disappeared, replaced by a piece of cloth with many tears, and a hideous tear stain appeared on the armor of the Earth God.

"Baili Yun, the power of your strike has increased!" The Earth God was filled with shock, but along with the shock came a hint of ferocity and smugness.

The next moment, to everyone's astonishment, a massive surge of earth power rushed toward the Earth God, and his armor and cloth rapidly recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning him to his peak condition in the blink of an eye.

The only accompanying cost was that the mountains and rivers began to collapse wildly, and the ground near the Star Sea Alliance headquarters began to tremble and sink violently!

Almost instantly, the earth was destroyed, a truly horrific sight!

At this moment, the cultivators behind the Earth God were all excited.

The Demon Blade Baili Yun has failed!
That strike that annihilated the ancient god was blocked by the Earth God!

And it didn't come at a great cost!

As for the collapse of mountains and rivers, they didn't care about it at all. After all, they had already gone this far, and the destruction of the Star Sea Continent had long since become none of their business.

What does it matter if the whole land is destroyed, as long as we can win?

They now see a glimmer of hope for victory!
"Great Earth God, you are mighty!" A cheer erupted.

On the other hand, Qi Ping's side, including Baili Yun, all had gloomy expressions.

This scene was completely unexpected. "I never imagined that this usually low-key Earth God would possess such terrifying supernatural powers!" Meng Tianqi's brows furrowed tightly.

Even now, the Earth God is not confident enough to kill him; he can't lose, but he also can't win.

What's even more troublesome is that attacking the Earth God would cause horrific destruction to the land of the Star Sea Continent. Even if they were to win, they would be significantly weakened for the upcoming battle.

The Earth God Lord's current combat power is practically a miniature version of an Earth Immortal!
"It's a bit troublesome!"

As the one who had just engaged in combat, Baili Yun was all too aware of the power of his move.

He was certain that even if he went all out, he would not be able to kill his opponent, except to cause devastating damage to the earth!

The fact that there are only costs and no results is what Baili Yun finds most troublesome.

Perhaps everyone could break through if they went all out, but the cost would be almost unbearable. Moreover, in addition to the Earth God, the enemy also had two Void Refinement cultivators and a bunch of Nascent Soul cultivators with trump cards.

If even top-tier Void Refinement experts like Baili Yun and Meng Tianqi found this so troublesome, then others were even more perplexed and felt the same way at this moment.

Big trouble!

Faced with this problem, they could only turn their attention to Qi Ping.

After all, Qi Ping was the leader of this battle and had created countless miracles, so when faced with these thorny issues, they subconsciously looked to Qi Ping.

However, when they looked at Qi Ping, they found that his eyes were closed, as if he was sensing something.

Seeing this, Meng Tianqi and the others dared not disturb them any further. They could only suppress their anxiety and wait while thinking of a solution.

"Is that all you can do? If you can't win, just retreat!" the Earth God mocked.

He couldn't possibly pass up this opportunity to dampen the enemy's morale; now was a good time to boost his own troops' morale.

For him, the most important thing about the morale of the army was not combat power, but cohesion, because they were originally a loose group of people formed by an alliance of interests. In a favorable situation, they might be good buddies sharing the spoils, but he was still worried about being betrayed.

Needless to say, a situation in the face of adversity could collapse at any moment, so the Earth God must prevent this from happening no matter what.

Just as the Earth God had predicted, excited responses rang out behind him at that moment.

"As expected, their previous ability to kill the Ancient God and Bai Yuan was nothing more than a sneak attack and numerical superiority. Now that we have more Void Refinement cultivators and Nascent Soul cultivators, why should we be afraid of them?"

"Hold on until our seniors return, and we'll win!"

Meng Tianqi, Baili Yun, and the others looked rather grim in the face of the Earth God's group's sarcasm, but this did not break their spirits.

Faced with such a disadvantage and with such a slim chance of victory, they all firmly chose to stand on the side of Bee Daoren.

Now that we've reached this point, we almost have the upper hand. We're just facing a problem, and once that's resolved, everything will be fine.

"If all else fails, let's eliminate the forces behind them first! That way we can avoid further trouble!" Meng Tianqi suggested.

Everyone agreed, believing that this might disrupt the enemy's morale and create an opportunity to defeat them one by one, especially the forces behind the Earth God and the other two Void Refinement cultivators.

However, they did not want to go to this point unless absolutely necessary, because as long as the group of Void Refinement and Nascent Soul cultivators in front of them remained, they would find it difficult to completely control the Star Sea Continent, and their subsequent plans would be difficult to carry out.

Finally, just as Meng Tianqi and the others were getting anxious, Qi Ping opened his eyes!
At that moment, everyone saw the look of understanding in Qi Ping's eyes and the smile that appeared on his lips.

Seeing this, Meng Tianqi and the others were greatly encouraged.

On the other hand, seeing the smile on Qi Ping's lips, the Earth God felt a sense of unease.

The Bee Taoist is too mysterious. With such an attitude now, how could they not be afraid?
"Bee Taoist, stop with the mystification and trickery! If you have the guts, come and fight!" the Earth God roared.

Although he also felt a vague unease deep down, he absolutely could not show it on the surface.

"Is that so? Then so be it!" Qi Ping replied calmly.

Then Qi Ping transmitted his voice to Meng Tianqi and the others:
"I can sever his connection to the earth. Later, I will send my spirit bees into their formation. When I say I'm going to attack, you can attack with all your might. Remember, don't hold back at all!"

Upon hearing this, Meng Tianqi and the others' eyes immediately lit up with joy.

good good!
As expected of Senior Bee Taoist!
"Yes!" the crowd responded.

Seeing this scene, the Earth God felt his unease grow even stronger.

"Didn't you say you were going to make a move? Then go ahead and do it!" the Earth God retorted stubbornly.

However, Qi Ping ignored it. With a thought, a spatial passage instantly swallowed Qi Ping, and then Qi Ping disappeared from the spot.

The unease among the Earth God and others quickly intensified at this moment.

"Space magic!"

After entering the space passage, Qi Ping quickly went underground.

Then, an army of earth vein ants emerged from the spirit beast bag and from all directions!

Under Qi Ping's arrangement, the army of earth vein ants, carrying arrays that blocked the power of the earth, began to spread to various key nodes. Most importantly, these earth vein ants and arrays carried a portion of Qi Ping's earth immortal druid power and fortune power.

"Although I am an Earth Immortal from the Azure Sky Domain, I also have close ties with the Star Sea Continent, and I also possess the Earth Vein Ants, which are the darlings of the Earth Vein Power. I'd like to see who can outdo whom!"

After observing and analyzing the situation, Qi Ping was now fully confident in his ability to sever the earth's veins.

After completing these arrangements, Qi Ping quickly arrived next to the array of the Star Sea Continent headquarters, preparing to use the power of the void to quietly penetrate the movement technique and release the swarm of bees inside.

The moment the swarm enters, all the ley ants will begin to swiftly sever the power of the earth veins, and they themselves will also compete with the Earth God for control of the earth's power.

Having reached this point, Demon Blade Baili Yun and Meng Tianqi will make another move, which should give their opponent a strong "surprise".
