Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Chapter 277 Profoundly Understanding the Principles_2



In the vast northern region, this was the main battlefield for Qi Refining Cultivators.

Across the field of view, the scene of battle here was even more bloody and brutal, with nearly ten thousand Qi Refining Cultivators and tens of thousands of First Order Demonic Beasts engaged in a slaughter akin to a gigantic meat grinder.

Under the intensity of the great war, every minute and every second saw a large number of Qi Refining Cultivators and First Order Demonic Beasts fall.

After just half an hour of fierce battle, the conflict among the Qi Refining Cultivators had reached a fever pitch.

The situation for both sides seemed to be at a stalemate with neither gaining much of an advantage.

Although the Demonic Beasts outnumbered the Human Race five to one, among them were many at the initial and medium stages of First Order.

On the side of the Human Cultivators, the vast majority involved in the battle were at the Seventh Level of Qi Refinement or higher, with those below the Seventh Level accounting for less than thirty percent of the total.

Therefore, the collective strength of the Human Qi Refining Cultivators was composed of elites; though fewer in number, the power they unleashed was by no means inferior to that of the Demonic Beasts.

As time progressed, the morale of the Human Cultivators reached its peak, with every Qi Refining Cultivator fully engaged, delivering increasingly fierce attacks.

After a tough fight, the Cultivators united and exploited the weakness of the Demonic Beasts' uneven strength, slowly suppressing the Demon Beast Race.

Following several rounds of attacks by the Qi Refining Cultivators, a large number of Demonic Beasts at the initial and medium stages of First Order died off, drastically reducing their numbers, and the entire legion even showed signs of collapse.

Finding a moment to catch their breath, the First Order Demonic Beasts grouped together to reorganize their defenses and clashed with the Cultivators once again.

At this moment, some Foundation Establishment Cultivators who had freed themselves turned their attention to the side of the Qi Refining Cultivators.

As the battle went on, the corpses of both humans and beasts had piled up into mountains, and a vast amount of blood gathered, silently forming a river of blood in the lower terrains.

Yet amidst such a bloody scene, those Qi Refining Cultivators, preoccupied with fending off the Demonic Beasts, were completely unaware.

Clearly, both sides had long since become enraged, paying no heed to the gruesome sight, as the Qi Refining Cultivators and the Demonic Beasts continued to slaughter each other.

Even someone like Lin Tianming, who had witnessed many gruesome scenes, couldn't help feeling his scalp tingle with shock at the sight.

Not just him—Li Xiuyuan and several others also turned pale, with two Foundation Establishment Initial Stage Cultivators unable to bear the bloody scene and started vomiting.

Yet the brutal battle continued, with neither the Human Golden Core Cultivators nor the Third Order Demon Beasts issuing new commands, making withdrawal for both sides impossible.

However, such significant decisions regarding retreat were not something these Foundation Establishment Cultivators needed to worry about.

Realizing this, Lin Tianming gradually calmed his mind.

Following that, he approached Li Xiuyuan, and the other Cultivators also walked over, gathering around Li Xiuyuan spontaneously, intending to listen to his arrangements.

At that moment, Li Xiuyuan glanced at the more than forty Cultivators beside him, noting that most were safe and sound, and nodded in satisfaction.

The strength displayed by the Cultivators he had recruited during this battle had completely exceeded his expectations.

Especially Lin Tianming and Hu Yuan—while the former casually killed three Second Order Medium Stage Demon Beasts and even a Second Order Late-Stage Demon Beast proved no match for him, his strength was almost comparable to his own.

As a Loose Cultivator, Hu Yuan's strength was similarly formidable; he dominated in battle against three Second Order Late-Stage Demon Beasts, and although he did not single-handedly kill them, the strength he demonstrated was such that even Li Xiuyuan himself might not be able to best him.

With these two, along with several other Cultivators of decent strength, as long as they proceeded with a steady and firm approach and achieved some results, they stood a good chance of earning a place in the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm.

With these thoughts, excitement bubbled in Li Xiuyuan's heart, and the somber look on his face gradually disappeared.

He forcibly suppressed his inner excitement, turned his attention to the Cultivators present, then looked at other groups and saw that some were in dire straits.

After a moment of thought, Li Xiuyuan opened his mouth and said, "Fellow daoists, although our side's battle has ended, the overall battle for the Human Race has not stopped."

"You have all seen the situation of the other teams—'When the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold,' I believe we are all clear about this principle, so I will not belabor the point."

"As Cultivators of the Human Race, facing the assault of Demonic Beasts, we should stand on the same front. My condition is still good, so I have decided to help the other teams and kill as many Demonic Beasts as possible."

"As for all of you, it would be best if you're willing to take action, but no one is compelled against their will!"

Hearing this, the cultivators present showed various expressions, with some at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment having expended a great deal during the previous major battle, and many cultivators still bore injuries.

In such a state, even if they joined the battle, they wouldn't necessarily be able to exert much strength.

However, there were also some cultivators with decent strength who were still in good condition, although not at their peak, but they could easily restrain one or two Demonic Beasts of the same order.

As for Lin Tianming's condition at this time, it goes without saying that he had merely consumed some of his spiritual power.

If he went all out, his strength would be several times stronger than during the earlier battle, but others didn't know that.

At this moment, Hu Yuan was the first to take a stance, stating his willingness to join the battle alongside Li Xiuyuan.

Lin Tianming pondered for a moment, considering his good condition, and then decided to join the battle as well.

The reason for his decisive action was not only confidence but, more importantly, for the sake of obtaining an entry spot into the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm.

Just in Li Xiuyuan's team, there was a powerful Loose Cultivator like Hu Yuan. It was conservatively estimated that there were more than twenty such capable teams.

To secure one of the three entry slots into the Secret Realm from such competitive conditions, the number of Demonic Beasts that needed to be killed was certainly significant.

Thus, he had to accumulate some achievements against Demonic Beasts as much as possible to gain an advantage in the subsequent competition.

Besides, considering the greater good of the Human Race, it was not wrong for him to do his best.

Moreover, helping others was also a way for him, and the Lin Family, to form good connections; if he faced any difficulties in the future, these people might be able to lend a hand and offer an extra layer of security in a crisis.

Understanding this, he agreed to join without hesitation, leading many cultivators to look at him in a new light.

Influenced by Lin Tianming's decisiveness, some hesitant cultivators also made up their minds.

Soon, more than twenty cultivators voiced their stances one after another, most of them being at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. They agreed to join Li Xiuyuan and assist those teams that were struggling.

As for the remaining twenty-odd who were unwilling to join, they were either in poor condition, injured, or simply lacked the strength.

Li Xiuyuan understood their choices as well, because after all, everything should be considered with one's own safety in mind; one could only be more useful if they were alive.

Thinking this way, their decision seemed all the more human and was easily understandable.

At this time, seeing everyone agreeing to help, Li Xiuyuan was very pleased inside.

He smiled and then gave a sincere salute to the crowd, saying, "I am truly impressed by everyone's understanding of the greater good!"

Seeing Li Xiuyuan being so polite, Lin Tianming and the others hurriedly returned the salute.

Li Xiuyuan waved his hand, then began to give instructions.

"Very well... everyone, remember to prioritize your own safety above all else. If the situation is hopeless, there is no shame in giving up the rescue!"

"As for the Demonic Beasts killed by everyone, or those who participate in it, I can guarantee a fair distribution of the spoils!"

Hearing this, those willing to join the rescue team breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, they were willing to help not without purpose; nearly everyone had their own agenda and were willing to take risks for rewards.

Since Li Xiuyuan made a point of clarifying this before they set out, they felt reassured and could fully commit to the task at hand.

At this moment, everyone was full of spirit, with satisfied expressions on their faces.

"There's no time to lose, let's make our move immediately!"

Having said that, Li Xiuyuan was the first to dash off in a certain direction, swiftly joining the battle group of other cultivators.

Right behind him, Lin Tianming and others like Hu Yuan wasted no time and charged in different directions.
