Global Games: Reporting the Great Ascension Stage at the Start

Upon hearing Shen Hua's words, the Wang family members immediately showed signs of tension, and their previous joy vanished instantly.

The burly man from the Wang family said anxiously, "These demonic sects are here to kill Miss!"

"Miss? Which Miss?" Shen Hua's gaze swept over Wang Feng and the people around him. There were only two women and a little girl. Was this little girl the so-called "Miss"?

The burly man pointed to the forest to the side: "Miss led the two strongest members of the Demonic Sect into that forest just now, and it's been almost half an hour since then."

The burly man turned around, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Wang Feng, and said, "Master, I'll go take a look right now!"

"Go quickly, be careful on the road. You might be able to help," Wang Feng said hastily.

Wang Feng had no spiritual roots, and the only person he could rely on was this strong and muscular man.

At this moment, Shen Hua understood that the follow-up to the mission was here.

"Then I'll go take a look too," Shen Hua said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

"Ah? How could I dare to disturb you, young master..."

"Why be so polite now? Let's go!"

After Shen Hua finished speaking, he took out a [Swiftness Talisman] and threw it to the strong man. At the same time, he also rode his flying sword and flew in the direction the big man pointed.

It seems the mission won't achieve a perfect score unless we help these people rescue that so-called "lady".

The muscular man was only now noticing the way [Entropy Increase] appeared, and he was quite startled!

"A natal magic weapon?! This young master is actually a high-level weapon refiner!"

However, time was of the essence, and he didn't have time to think further. Forcibly suppressing his surprise, he affixed the [Swiftness Talisman] to his body and followed Shen Hua into the mountains.

……

Deep in the mountains, three cultivators were engaged in a fierce battle.

On one side were two demonic cultivators.

These two demonic cultivators, a man and a woman, both appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.

The man was a rare body-refining class, wearing a heavy suit of blood-red armor and two huge cold iron gauntlets on his hands.

At this moment, he raised both fists, which could be described as a tiger roaring and the wind blowing, full of domineering power!

The woman was an ordinary Qi cultivator, holding a bronze mirror-like magical artifact that gleamed with black light.

She continuously activated the magical artifact, and terrifying black light shot out from the bronze mirror, looking quite frightening.

As for the other person in the fight, their appearance could not be seen.

A magic circle enveloped the person, generating a hemispherical cyan light screen to block the attacks from the two demonic figures, preventing anyone from seeing what was inside.

However, it can be seen that this cultivator is most likely a formation master.

"【Azure Spirit Covering Light Array】? Your young lady is an array master?" Shen Hua asked in surprise.

At this moment, Shen Hua and the strong man had arrived at the scene.

The Azure Spirit Covering Light Formation is a common formation used by Qi Refining stage formation masters to fight enemies.

Although the situation inside the formation cannot be seen, it is highly likely that this is Miss Wang.

"That's right." Seeing that the young lady was still safe and sound, the burly man breathed a huge sigh of relief.

At the same time, a smug look appeared on his face: "My young lady is not only a formation master, but also a top disciple of the Taiping Sect in Tan County! That's why we've been targeted by the Demonic Sect."

"Taipingmen in Tan County?" A look of surprise flashed across Shen Hua's face.

Unexpectedly, this Miss Wang was actually his fellow disciple.

But isn't calling it "outstanding" a bit of an exaggeration?

The best of the best from Taipingmen in Tanxian County is an outstanding figure even in the entire game world.

"But the problem now is... this battle seems a bit too advanced!"

Shen Hua stood side by side with the strong man, a full hundred meters away from the battle zone between the Demonic Sect and Miss Wang.

They hesitated and dared not step forward.

The reason they dared not step forward was that both Miss Wang and the two demonic cultivators were actually late-stage Qi Refining cultivators!

The late stage of Qi Refining can be completely different from the early and middle stages.

Once a cultivator reaches level 7, which is the late stage of Qi Refining, their combat power will experience a qualitative leap!

A cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining will be able to manipulate two magical artifacts simultaneously! While those in the early and middle stages of Qi Refining can only manipulate one.

Furthermore, in the later stages of Qi Refining, one can manipulate high-level magical artifacts, and even manipulate two at the same time!

Once a cultivator reaches level 9, which is the peak of the Qi Refining stage, they can even control two top-tier magic weapons simultaneously!

Simultaneously manipulating two magical artifacts is not as simple as 1+1=2.

Late-stage Qi Refining cultivators often wield two magical artifacts, one for offense and one for defense. With their combined offensive and defensive capabilities, they are virtually unbeatable by cultivators below the mid-stage Qi Refining level.

Previously, Shen Hua was able to rely on his superior equipment to kill cultivators at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

Even if he is in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, it would be difficult for him to defeat someone in the late-stage of Qi Refining.

After all, the difference in strength is too great if there is only one magic weapon.

The body-refining man from the Demonic Sect is now using two magical artifacts. The armor he wears is a high-grade protective artifact, and the gauntlets in his hands are also a high-grade offensive artifact.

Although the beautiful woman from the Demonic Sect only used one magical artifact, namely the mirror that constantly emitted black light, this mirror was actually a top-tier magical artifact!

How could Shen Hua and the strong men from the Wang family possibly intervene? The difference in strength was simply too great!

That's why Shen Hua said it was "beyond the scope"—was this task really something he could complete?

However, to be fair, the fact that Miss Wang could hold out against two opponents for so long shows that she is indeed quite strong.

……

The two demonic cultivators tensed up when they saw someone approaching.

However, after seeing the cultivation levels of Shen Hua and the strong men from the Wang family, they immediately felt relieved.

"A novice and a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator are nothing to worry about!" the demonic sect man declared loudly.

The two ignored them and continued their relentless attack on Miss Wang's magic array.

The demonic man swung his large fist and slammed it hard into the protective barrier of the magic array.

The magic circle was immediately smashed, creating ripples that nearly shattered it.

Fortunately, Miss Wang also had a defensive magic artifact in her hand within the magic array, which helped her block the attack of the demonic men.

The beautiful woman from the Demonic Sect turned cold, and streaks of black light shot out from the bronze mirror, crashing into the blue protective shield of the magic array.

These black lights also seemed to be corrosive; once they hit, they clung to the shield, hissing and smoking, causing the spiritual light on the cyan shield to gradually weaken.

Standing at a distance, the strong and muscular man from the Wang family looked hesitant.

Should he go up and help?

If we don't help, she's our young lady; are we just going to stand by and watch?

Help? What can he and Shen Hua do with their limited abilities?

He hesitated, glancing at Shen Hua, who suddenly said, "Since your young lady is a prodigy of the Taiping Sect, why doesn't she have any accompanying mentors to protect her?"

"Yes, yes," the burly man from the Wang family said with a bitter face. "The one who was in charge of protecting us before was a senior in the late Foundation Establishment stage, but he left on his own when we reached the Maling Mountain area."

"After all, no one could have imagined that we would encounter danger in the suburbs of Tanxian County, especially an attack from the Demonic Sect."

"Is that so?" Shen Hua blinked, as if she had finally figured something out.

So he reached out and slapped the burly man from the Wang family hard on the shoulder: "Come on, let's go, the two of us!"
