Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

"Greetings, Senior Brother Qi!"

Pu Zongyu led the group in paying respects to Qi Xuyang.

Qi Xuyang nodded and returned the greeting with a cupped fist: "Greetings to all fellow junior brothers!"

Pu Zongyu noticed that Qi Xuyang, who was usually stern, seemed somewhat unusual, which made him a little surprised.

He tentatively asked, "Senior Brother Qi, should we take down the person who's been chasing us first?"

Qi Xuyang shook his head: "That's Yu Tianwan, the person in charge of the Xuantian Sect in Liuyun City. He bears a heavy responsibility and won't just stand there and let you surround him. Let's set up the formation first."

Pu Zongyu was stunned: "Is the Two Elements Zhou Tian Sword Formation we have now not sufficient?"

Qi Xuyang looked him straight in the eye and said in a deep voice: "This formation is commonly used by our sect. When we act, we inevitably reveal our secrets, letting the other party know our true origins. How can we use it!"

Pu Zongyu lowered his head and said, "Senior brother is right to be cautious! I wonder what formation senior brother thinks we should set up?"

Qi Xuyang pondered for a moment and said, "In terms of battle formations, those not directly passed down in the sect are indeed not as powerful as the Xuantian Sect's formations. By the Great Swamp, we were outnumbered. Even though we set up the Crouching Tiger Formation and used formation flags to assist, it was still difficult to withstand the Xuantian Sect's thunder talismans. Now that we're here, our Demonic Abyss has the advantage in numbers, and the other party must not have many thunder talismans left, so let's set up the Soaring Dragon Ascending Sky Formation!"

"Soaring Dragon Ascending Sky!" Pu Zongyu exclaimed in surprise, "Does senior brother mean to fight the Xuantian Sect cultivators to the death here?"

Qi Xuyang shook his head: "The Soaring Dragon Ascending Sky Formation is primarily offensive, but its attack is during flight, a mobile offense. Setting up this formation is to entangle the enemy, not giving them a chance to retreat."

Pu Zongyu asked, "How many Xuantian Sect members are there?"

Qi Xuyang said, "If it's just the members of their main sect who chased us, there are only eleven. But if you include those from the lower sects, there are more than twenty."

Pu Zongyu nodded, not daring to ask how many of their own cultivators could still retreat.

Within a quarter of an hour, all the Xuantian Sect cultivators had gathered around Yu Tianwan. One person was missing, and three were injured.

The missing person was Sun Tianyi. The injured were He Tianhong, Tao Tianxing, and Jiang Tianhao, with Tao Tianxing being the most seriously injured and unable to support high-intensity fighting.

Of the three from the Heavenly Talisman Sect, one had died. Cui Huaiyuan and another elder named Cao Xun were also injured, but not too severely.

On the peak of the mountain, the number of Demonic Abyss cultivators had increased to twenty-two. This meant that of the twelve who had fled from near the Great Swamp, a total of seven had successfully returned, and five had fallen.

Before long, of the seven who returned, two flew west on their swords. At the same time, twenty Golden Core Demonic Abyss cultivators on the mountain peak took to the air, riding their sword lights and rushing towards the Xuantian Sect cultivators.

Jin Tianwu stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Yu, let's retreat first. When Sect Master Ma and the others arrive, we can fight the Demonic Abyss thieves."

Yu Tianwan, however, asked, "Fellow junior brothers, in the past decades of fighting against the Demonic Abyss, have any Golden Core cultivators used high-level thunder talismans?"

Jin Tianwu was stunned, then shook his head: "If I remember correctly, there never have been."

Yu Tianwan looked at the others, and all those who met his gaze shook their heads.

"Since True Person Qi died in the Void Demon World, the sect only has a few high-level thunder talismans left, all of which are held by True Persons to deal with the Demonic Abyss Nascent Soul cultivators. Naturally, this talisman would not appear in Golden Core battles. But today, this situation may change!"

Yu Tianwan looked at the rapidly approaching Demonic Abyss cultivators, sneered, and said in a low voice, "Fellow junior brothers, set up the Black Tortoise Formation, first entangle the enemy, and when the time is right, then fight to the death!"

Then, he added, "Junior Brother Tao, you and Elder Cui and Elder Cao should go find Sect Master Ma and Sect Master Ren and meet up with them, then come to this place and restrain the Demonic Abyss cultivators from the outside."

Tao Tianxing's thin face was a little pale, with a bloody mark on his abdomen. Although the blood had solidified, it looked somewhat shocking.

He shook his head and said, "The other party's numbers are twice that of our sect. If we lose another person, the disadvantage will be even greater. Although I am injured, I can still persevere!"

Cui Huaiyuan echoed, "Elder Yu, Cui can still fight. Let Junior Brother Cao assist Elder Tao in finding Sect Master Ma and the others."

Yu Tianwan said sternly, "I am in charge here. Follow orders and do not disobey!"

Tao Tianxing bit his lip. Seeing Yu Tianwan glaring at him fiercely, he had no choice but to say in a low voice, "Yes, Senior Brother Yu!"

He nodded to Cui Huaiyuan, summoned his flying sword, jumped on it, looked back at his fellow disciples, a look of guilt flashed in his eyes, and then drove the sword, turning into a stream of light and leaving.

Cui Huaiyuan and Cao Xun did not dare to disobey Yu Tianwan, and followed suit.

Yu Tianwan glanced at the Demonic Abyss cultivators who were within five miles, and quickly made arrangements: "Black Tortoise Formation, I am at the head, Junior Brother Jin at the tail, the four legs are Junior Brothers Min, Gu, Zheng, and You, and Junior Brothers He, Shi, and Jiang are in the middle."

Jin Tianwu said, "Sect Master Ma sent a message that they will be here in half an hour. Should we retreat first and meet up with them?"

Yu Tianwan glared at him and shouted, "Quickly set up the formation and engage the enemy!"

He raised the Frosty Cold Sword, and sacrificed five Frosty Ice Swords, revolving around the Frosty Cold Sword, like a plum blossom with four sword energy petals.

The rapidly rushing Demonic Abyss cultivators, led by Qi Xuyang at the dragon's head, avoided Yu Tianwan's leading position and directly attacked the three in the middle, He Tianhong, Shi Tianhan, and Jiang Tianhao.

This person's vision was experienced, knowing that the back of the tortoise was the most solid place, but still attacking from here, the idea was to separate the four legs, head, and tail from the back of the tortoise and attack them separately.

If the two sides were evenly matched, this method would be no different from throwing oneself into the net and seeking one's own death, but in a situation where the numbers were twice as many as the opponent, it could be described as fierce and tyrannical.

Yu Tianwan's eyes flashed coldly, and he transmitted to Jin Tianwu: "Junior Brother Jin, release another Earth Thunder Talisman!"

Jin Tianwu waved his hand and released the thunder talisman, while transmitting to Yu Tianwan: "Senior Brother Yu, this is the last Earth Thunder Talisman!"

Yu Tianwan knew this in his heart, and the magic formulas in his hands changed rapidly, while driving the five Frosty Ice Swords to attack the Demonic Abyss Soaring Dragon Formation from the side as it piled up and fell towards the tortoise's back, while communicating with everyone to move the battle formation downwards together.

Qi Xuyang led the crowd, chasing closely, each with their own magic weapons. Those on the outside resisted the attacks from the head, tail, and four legs of the Black Tortoise Formation, while those on the inside joined forces to attack He Tianhong, Shi Tianhan, and Jiang Tianhao.

When the Xuantian Sect's Golden Cores fell to the ground, the power of the Earth Thunder had already been activated, forming an integrated whole with the battle formation, blocking the Demonic Abyss Soaring Dragon Formation that followed closely above.

Seeing that things could not be done, Qi Xuyang rose into the sky, leading the crowd like a long dragon flying and circling once, before gathering strength to strike directly at Jin Tianwu, who was located at the tail of the tortoise.

The Xuantian Sect cultivators released their magic weapons together, and combined with Jin Tianwu's flying sword at the tail of the tortoise, they slashed at the imposing long dragon.

"Boom!"

The two sides collided together, the energy rushing in all directions, scattering the trees and grass in the mountain wilderness, and splitting ugly "scars" on the dark brown soil below.

The long dragon failed to hit with one blow, and flew up again, changing its target, gathering strength to attack You Tianwu, who was located at the left front leg.

Several times like this, the Long Dragon Formation fully displayed its advantages of flexibility and mobility, while the Black Tortoise Formation, confined to one corner, although its defense was solid, could only be passively beaten. Once the power of the Earth Thunder was exhausted, the back of the tortoise would become the opponent's point of breaking the formation.

Yu Tianwan's eyes flickered, and what he was thinking about was not whether the Black Tortoise Formation could hold on, but whether Qi Xuyang still had a backup plan, whether he should wait for his final moves to be exhausted, and then completely defeat him with a thunderous blow.
