Your cousin brother? Qian Duoduo looked at Qi Bingsheng.
Qi Bingsheng took out a Jade Slip, looked at it with his Spiritual Awareness, and sighed.
He said the Formation is about to break.
What's going on? Qian Duoduo asked again.
Qi Bingsheng's cousin brother and nine other Disciples of this Sect are surrounded by Shengling Sect and Ba Ling Sect on a mountain.
The three of us originally wanted to provide support, but we were intercepted midway. Fortunately, I knew about this cave, which allowed us to hold out until you arrived.
Wang Longyu explained.
As soon as he entered the Secret Realm, Wang Longyu began to search for a hiding place, preparing to stay hidden until the end.
Ten! Qian Duoduo gasped. Where are they?
About thirty miles northwest of this location. My cousin brother and I have a Mystic Art that allows us to know each other's positions.
Qi Bingsheng shook his head, My cousin brother said we absolutely must not go over there. Those besieging them are fifteen people from Ba Ling Sect and Shengling Sect, all of whom are Foundation Establishment.
We also started with fifteen people, and now only ten are left.
Lan Xiangxiu added.
Let's go kill them.
Qian Duoduo walked out of the cave.
Qi Bingsheng pulled him back.
I know Senior Brother Bu Huan is strong, but they have too many people, and according to my cousin brother, they could have easily eliminated us, but it seems they didn't use their full strength to attract more Refining Spirit Sect Disciples.
You might as well just say that their target is actually Senior Brother Bu Huan.
Wang Longyu pushed Qi Bingsheng.
Qi Bingsheng lowered his head and said to Qian Duoduo, They indeed kept shouting for Refining Spirit Sect Disciples to ask you for help.
Qian Duoduo smiled.
Since they are so eager for me, I must go. This wish, I must fulfill it for them.
Wang Longyu and Qian Duoduo stood together.
Anyway, this life was saved by you, so what if I give it back to you? If you go, I'll go too.
Qi Bingsheng and Lan Xiangxiu also stepped forward, We'll go too.
Good.
Qian Duoduo nodded, stuffing dozens of Yin and Yang Scissors and dozens of Wolf Fang Black Iron Hammers into the hands of Wang Longyu, Qi Bingsheng, and Lan Xiangxiu.
Don't be stingy, hit them to death.
The stingers of the Spiritual Bees and the mandibles of the Devouring Gold Ants had all been refined into Magic Treasures by Qian Duoduo. There were plenty in the Golden Toad.
Here, each of you take ten bottles. Qian Duoduo gave each of them ten bottles of Spirit Liquid.
Just now, defending this cave relied entirely on these good things you gave me. I was just about to ask you for more, and you delivered them yourself.
Wang Longyu happily accepted them.
Qi Bingsheng and Lan Xiangxiu were somewhat shocked; they thought Qian Duoduo's Magic Treasures were almost used up when they annihilated the six Shengling Sect members.
Don't be stingy. If you run out, I'll give you more. Qian Duoduo reminded them again.
Without further ado, the four of them flew towards the northwest.
Along the way, Qi Bingsheng held a Jade Slip, constantly adjusting their direction.
After flying for half an hour, a solitary mountain appeared before their eyes.
The mountain was a single massive rock, shaped like a turtle, with a high ridge in the middle and a huge rock at the very front, resembling a raised turtle head.
It's there. Qi Bingsheng pointed to the turtle head.
There's a pit in the mountain, and my cousin brother and the other Disciples are trapped there. Ba Ling Sect is on the left, and Shengling Sect is on the right. They are attacking in turns.
Why are they attacking in turns? Qian Duoduo asked curiously.
My cousin brother said that Ba Ling Sect and Shengling Sect are having a competition to see who can kill more Disciples of our Sect.
Qi Bingsheng's voice carried anger.
Is our Refining Spirit Sect that weak? Qian Duoduo was so enraged that it could no longer be called mere anger.
Wang Longyu said with a grim face, The last time the Three Treasures opened, our Sect only had three Righteous Foundation Establishment. The time before that, five. The time before that, it was the worst, zero.
Qi Bingsheng added: Shengling Sect is slightly stronger than us, and Ba Ling Sect is the strongest. If it weren't for needing the Jade Keys in our hands, Ba Ling Sect would have wanted to monopolize these Three Treasures.
What's the reason that makes Ba Ling Sect so strong? Qian Duoduo sighed.
For Refining Spirit Sect Disciples, those who can achieve Righteous Foundation Establishment are truly as rare as Phoenix feathers and Qilin horns, no wonder Qi Bingsheng and Lan Xiangxiu were so moved.
The selection mechanism. In Ba Ling Sect, the culture of one-on-one duels is extremely prevalent. All candidates for Foundation Establishment in the Three Treasures are publicly announced. If anyone feels a candidate is inferior to themselves, they can directly challenge them, and if they win, they replace them.
If challenged, no matter the reason, avoiding the fight counts as a loss.
Wang Longyu's words resonated with Qian Duoduo.
If Refining Spirit Sect used the same method as Ba Ling Sect, then Chu Tianqi wouldn't have died.
More often, it would be like Lu Qinbao, who, even if he died, would have the strength to take someone down with him.
To be honest, although Wang Longyu and Qian Duoduo were comrades in life and death, in terms of strength, he shouldn't have come to this Secret Realm for Foundation Establishment.
Refining Spirit Sect emphasized balance, connections, and Family background more.
Qian Duoduo shook his head—now was not the time to think about these things. What he needed to think about now was how to escape from the encirclement of Ba Ling Sect and Shengling Sect.
Among the trapped Disciples, how many have reached Foundation Establishment? Qian Duoduo asked Qi Bingsheng.
Qi Bingsheng shook his head, It seems none. After we came in, an unprecedented great upheaval occurred in this Secret Realm, and the Sha Soul rioted, resulting in either the Sha Soul being too strong or there being no Sha Soul.
As soon as we went deeper, we encountered a premeditated encirclement by the two Sects.
Then let's charge in first. Qian Duoduo pointed to the turtle head, Let's meet up with everyone first.
Listening to you. Wang Longyu immediately became static.
Although Qi Bingsheng and Lan Xiangxiu had questions in their eyes, they didn't voice them.
Qian Duoduo looked at Qi Bingsheng, Contact your cousin brother, and they'll meet us later. We'll charge in from the Shengling Sect side, and they'll stab Shengling Sect in the back.
When Qi Bingsheng and his cousin brother made contact, the four of them quietly arrived behind the Shengling Sect Disciples.
There were eight Shengling Sect Disciples, all of whom were at the Foundation Establishment Realm. Strangely, Zhao Haonan and Liang Liying were not among them.
Later, they learned that the two of them each had their own targets.
Zhao Haonan went after Nangong Nizi, while Liang Liying was engaged in a struggle with Deng Feihong.
These eight Shengling Sect Disciples were sitting haphazardly on a rocky ground, chatting and laughing, with no tense atmosphere whatsoever.
From a distance, their laughter could be heard. They were too lazy to use their Spiritual Awareness, which showed how relaxed they were.
If it weren't for the reward from the Liang Family Old Ancestor, I would have killed all ten rats on the mountain long ago.
A Shengling Sect Disciple said, his foot on a rock.
No rush. They're huddled in this Turtle Pit of Turtle Mountain, they'll be our meal sooner or later.
Don't push too hard. Even a cornered rabbit bites. Let the rabbits of Refining Spirit Sect bite Ba Ling Sect.
Exactly. Senior Brother Yu said he went to catch Jin Buhuan himself, but he hasn't returned yet. The two fellow Sect members who went with him are also silent now.
The Senior Brother Yu they mentioned must be Yu Renjie.
Yu Renjie was probably hiding somewhere healing his injuries at this time.
It's fine. The ten rats up there haven't reached Foundation Establishment, what are we afraid of?
Not reaching Foundation Establishment means they're not scary? Most of the Disciples from Refining Spirit Sect are Family Disciples, who doesn't carry a few precious Magic Treasures on them?
Before dying, dragging you down with them isn't worth it, right?
Look, Pang Yunxiao of Ba Ling Sect, such an arrogant person, didn't even use his full strength, he's cunning as a ghost.
At this moment, a leading Shengling Sect Disciple stood up.
Ba Ling Sect has made their point and retreated, it's our turn to catch the rats.
The other seven slowly stood up, some even stretching, then took out their Flying Swords and stood on them.
The leading Disciple saw everyone on their Flying Swords, waved his hand, Charge!
Eight long rainbows soared towards the top of Turtle Mountain.
