Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 191 Our Three Are Truly Amazing
The powerful figures might be able to return to help, but every breath before they do so could mean the death of a disciple.

The translucent jellyfish floats high in the sky, with countless tentacles extending from its body.

Each of those tentacles was connected to the head of a body cultivator standing in the front row.

These physical cultivators, capable of withstanding the most severe blows, could not withstand the demon's soul-locking techniques.

At first, the monks who were controlled by it could still feel the pain, howling and screaming in their collapse.

However, it wasn't long before these cultivators' faces gradually became blank, their mouths crooked and their eyes glazed over, drooling as if they were mentally impaired.

"It's their spiritual consciousness! It's extracting their spiritual consciousness!"

"Save them! There's still hope!"

The powerful figures at the front, who were temporarily unable to escape, sent back telepathic instructions: "Seal off your spiritual senses and maintain your primordial state!"

Those transparent tentacles were hidden in this dark space. Just as it could bypass the blockade of many Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage experts and sneak into the rear lines, this monster's characteristic was that it was good at hiding itself.

No one knows whether those tentacles will fall on their head the next moment.

However, once one's spiritual consciousness is sealed off and no longer dispersed, it means that many spells lose their basis for use.

If the continuity of spells cannot be maintained, how should we deal with the other surging monsters?

The two body cultivators in the forest looked around and found that they were the only fast-moving team around them.

This demonic being, comparable to a Golden Core cultivator of the human race, was so well hidden that there was no slightly higher-level combat power present for a short period of time.

Only them!

The two body cultivators felt their hearts pounding rapidly in their chests.

They have no time to consider why Lin Jian was able to accurately predict that the most difficult situation would occur here.

The tension narrowed their vision slightly, but their sense of responsibility told them that this was the time they needed to face it.

The defense line for grassroots disciples consists of disciples below the third level of Foundation Establishment. They must travel in groups and fight together to ensure their safety to a certain extent.

Those disciples who become members of the rapid action team are usually at the third or fourth level of the Foundation Establishment stage.

At the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, one can be said to be the person closest to the Golden Core stage.

If anyone present could temporarily stop this strange behemoth, it would probably be the two brothers.

Not to mention that they are physical cultivators, and their spiritual sense is naturally restrained, which may give them an advantage in dealing with demons that specialize in spiritual sense.

Most importantly, the Void Water Demon is not fighting alone.

Along with it, a dozen or so aliens of various shapes surged forth in the demonic tide.

Although these fetal demons and erosion demons are comparable to the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining stages of human cultivators, their sheer number should not be underestimated.

While the Void Water Demons controlled the sect disciples, these demons either finished off the controlled disciples or charged deeper into the battle lines.

If no one had stopped them, the situation might have gotten even worse!

With thoughts racing through their minds, the two disciples exchanged a glance to confirm each other's intentions and rushed forward almost simultaneously.

Ultimate Body Cultivation Technique - Shaking Mountains with Might!

Ultimate Body Cultivation Technique – Dragon Capture Skill!

However, the extremely fierce attacks seemed to have little effect on this seemingly ethereal and dreamlike creature.

The attack, as powerful as an avalanche, struck the jellyfish-like body with the gust of wind, having no effect whatsoever except to make it sway slightly.

The two exchanged a glance, their worries deepening.

They had all participated in guarding the Heavenly Abyss Demon Rift several times, and were considered experienced among the disciples. Before taking action, their biggest fear was that their methods would be of little use against this kind of ethereal demon.

And now, looking at it, it's indeed true.

Purely brute force methods are not very useful against this kind of demon that mainly attacks spiritual consciousness. Perhaps only attacks driven by spiritual consciousness can truly harm it and thus rescue the lower-level cultivators who are controlled by it.

However, it is clear that as pure body cultivators, they are not good at this method.

If they can't deal with the powerful monsters at the Tribulation Stage, they can probably only deal with the low-level monsters that charge into the battle lines.

The two brothers, both skilled in physical cultivation, gritted their teeth and charged towards the dozen or so demonic creatures, but they were as insignificant as a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Just as they were fighting those monsters, two more translucent tentacles floated down from the sky.

It had already penetrated their skulls without them even realizing it.

From the perspective of those watching from the sidelines, they themselves seemed unaware of this change.

Or rather, they couldn't even detect the translucent tentacles on other people's heads...

Fortunately, these two body cultivators were indeed quite capable in terms of spiritual awareness, unlike those junior disciples of sects who would shatter at the slightest touch.

Although the tentacles have been inserted, it may still be in a state of spontaneous resistance for a while and has not yet fallen into a state of being controlled.

But in the long run, it's clear that this won't bring any benefits.

Whether for his own sake or for the sake of his fellow disciples who were already under control, Lin Jian needed to take a gamble and give it a try.

With a slight mobilization of his inner energy, Lin Jian felt that most of the inner energy in his body had been restored thanks to the effects of the numerous energy-restoring pills.

Even if they are not at their peak, they can still stall for time to reduce losses and wait for the big shots to come to their aid.

With that thought in mind, Lin Jian made a sword incantation with his hands.

With a Thousand Blade Flying Star, countless golden sword energies emerged from behind the forest and then shot forward.

Each of these flying stars carried a trace of spiritual energy, striking the tentacles that had pierced the heads of the sect disciples like a meteor shower.

“Rustle, rustle, rustle!”

Under the deliberate control of the forest, many sword energies struck the same spot one after another.

Beneath the sharp pupil, one could see the tentacles that had been repeatedly hit trembling slightly, as if they were twitching in pain.

it works!

Lin Jian felt a slight joy in his heart.

At the same time, they noticed two surprised gazes.

The two physical cultivators on the same team were puzzled.

Where exactly is this genius swordsman's sword energy aimed?

Why are they all just blasting air at the sky?

However, the next moment, they discovered that several disciples who were gradually becoming senile were now struggling and roaring, as if they were slowly regaining some of their own consciousness.

"..."

"!!!"

what happened? !
The two exchanged a glance, both shocked.

They were quite certain that their attack had not yielded any real feedback.

Therefore, the improvement in these fellow disciples must have come from other aspects—

The attack from the forest was what made it work.

He wasn't just blasting energy at thin air!

Then, recalling how he seemed to be the only one firmly convinced that there were even more troublesome monsters here...

A thought that they had previously refused to believe began to rise in their minds—

Perhaps this genius swordsman is truly a genius?

He wasn't there to gain seniority in the team, and neither he nor his companion were there to act as guards.

This guy's here to carry me to new heights!

Seeing that the attack was effective, Lin Jian became somewhat excited.

Then, stepping on the Seven Stars and forming a golden sword seal with his hands, he prepared to gather his strength to deliver a few powerful blows to his opponent.

The Thousand Blade Flying Star technique is the easiest to execute, but its power is not very great.

The attack was clearly effective, but not enough to free the disciples controlled by the Void Water Demon. A more concentrated and powerful attack might be needed to sever those tentacles!

As he gathered his strength in the forest, countless demons set their sights on him.

The demons that were originally entangled with the two body cultivator brothers seemed to have changed their targets all at once under some unified command, heading straight for the forest.

Fortunately, the Splitting Light and Shadow Sword Box is both offensive and defensive. Even when it is not being used to launch an attack in the forest, the seven flying swords float around it, spontaneously resisting the attacks from various demons.

Upon seeing this, the two body cultivator teammates did not hesitate and rushed into the forest to provide assistance.

Now, they have finally figured out who the key player on the team is.

A person who can do what others can't is a master!
The Golden Core stage is awesome! The forest is awesome too!
If you follow great people, you can do great things.

kill!

With two body cultivators guarding him, Lin Jian could attack with greater peace of mind.

"Shhhhhh!"

The seven divine swords shot out almost simultaneously, each one aimed directly at one of the tentacles.

Faced with this strongest killing move of the Foundation Establishment stage, which can easily break through the defenses of even a fully prepared Golden Core stage cultivator, how could a Tribulation Phase stage demon comparable to the Golden Core stage possibly stand against it?

Such an attack might not cause much damage to its own body, but it would be a devastating blow to the tentacles it had laid out.

"Bang bang bang~"

The tentacles snapped off instantly, and the controlled cultivator's body went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

Seven!

Seven of the cultivators on the defensive line were instantly rescued.

However, they were only temporarily freed from the control of the Void Water Demon. Their extracted spiritual consciousness still needed time to recover, and they also needed time to heal their injuries.

It is impossible to expect them to continue fighting in the short term.

"Quickly take them to heal their wounds!" shouted other grassroots disciples who had been brought up from behind.

The sect's defenses have multiple layers, and naturally, they also have a complete reserve team and a rotation mechanism, so that the defenses won't collapse instantly after a group of people fall.

But everyone must know how to minimize losses.

Losing a little here, losing a little there, the cumulative effect could be a price that the Zhengyang Sect could hardly bear.

However, these newly transferred junior disciples dared not easily approach the area where the Void Water Demon was located.

The disciples on the first line of defense didn't even know how they were hit, so how could they dare to go forward easily?

Rushing in rashly might add pressure to the senior disciples in the sect.

"But those three senior brothers are really amazing... They can even hold their own against a demon at the Tribulation Stage."

"Brother is awesome!"

They offered more than just verbal support; Lin Jian even felt several beneficial spells descend upon his body.

Although it's not of great use, it's still a nice bonus.

Hearing the cheers of the grassroots disciples, the two body cultivator brothers guarding the forest also felt honored.

'The three of us are really awesome, hehe!'

Seeing that the Thousand Blade Finger technique was indeed effective, Lin Jian once again gathered his strength.

"Shhhhhh!"

Seven more sword energies, refined to their utmost, were unleashed, and seven more disciples were freed from their predicament.

But at some point, the movements of the two body cultivator senior brothers who had been guarding them gradually became stiff.

After a moment, one of them voiced a questioning tone—

"Hey?"

He felt as if his body was gradually no longer his own.

So he subconsciously turned his head to look at his side, only to find that his other brother was grinning foolishly, his eyes rolled up as he looked at the sky and drool was dripping from the corner of his mouth.

"Hehe~"

"Hehe~"

Lin Jian frowned slightly, deciding to reward them with a Thousand Blade Finger strike.

He always followed the principle of saving those who were infected first.

As the senior player mentioned, the longer the delay, the greater the damage, and it's even uncertain whether the body can be saved. Therefore, he didn't pay much attention to the two body cultivator brothers around him.

They are stronger and can hold out for a longer period of time.

However, they themselves have been caught in the trap, and they need guards to help them safely gather their strength to unleash the Thousand Blade Finger attack, otherwise those basic monsters would also be a headache.

As he thought this, two chains suddenly fell from Lin Jian's mind.

However, the God's Chains, which had always been invincible, failed to demonstrate their absolute dominance for the first time.

After the chains fell, Lin Jian didn't notice anything unusual; he just felt that he was in excellent condition.

"Little PowerPoint! Is Daddy still not satisfied with you tonight?"

"Do you want it! Do you want Daddy to fill you up with lots of pictures and words?"

"The thought of you being displayed naked in front of everyone tomorrow makes Dad very excited!"

Lin Jian frantically typed on the keyboard, feeling the energy of an ox or horse coursing through his entire body.

"Um……"

Lin Jian sensed something was wrong.

Why should I make a PowerPoint presentation?

"I'm already off work, why do I still have to make a PowerPoint presentation?"

'I need to open the author's assistant!'

"I want to be a top writer too! I'll write 10,000 words a day even if I'm just doing it part-time!"

"Make all those who constantly shout 'short and small Haki' kneel down and sing 'Conquer!'"

"I want to be a legend! I want to be a platinum star! I want to adapt movies and TV shows and ruthlessly sexually harass Chen Duling!"

No! Still no good!
These are just fantasies of overworked corporate slaves before they die from exhaustion!

What kind of garbage is this? Can you even afford to pay off a car loan with a few thousand dollars a month?
Tonight, your editor will die with you!

Okay, buried it...

Lin Jian looked at the graves in the woods before him, feeling content.

The second group of disciples at the rear watched helplessly as their idol, the sword cultivator senior brother, was suddenly hoisted high into the air like a puppet.

What was it doing while rescuing people in the forest?
Clearly, as a demonic entity at the Tribulation Phase stage that can rival the Golden Core stage, it is by no means a lamb to the slaughter.

He who heals others cannot heal himself, and he could not find the fate hanging over his own head in the forest.

On that jellyfish-like body that appeared and disappeared, there seemed to be a phantom image of an ordinary forest face.

Upon closer inspection, one can even see more similar human faces.

These faces showed either pain or peace.

The face belonging to the forest had its eyes closed, its expression neither sad nor happy.

A subtle aura of true energy stirred within the forest.

Outside the Heavenly Abyss Demon Rift, a figure dressed in white slowly opened a pair of clear, autumn-water-like eyes.

The surrounding space was a blur of light and shadow, with faint hissing sounds of sword energy...
