Chapter 249: Rushing
Chapter 249: Rushing
Zhao Jiudou was the first to speak, and Aunt Jin quickly chimed in, with everyone joining in to persuade Daoist Guang Hong to change his decision to launch an attack. Daoist Guang Hong appeared to be responsive to their suggestions, but skillfully avoided making any commitment to attack.
Zhao Jiudou from the Flying Swan Sect was the first to propose the idea of not rescuing Liu Family, and everyone else concurred. In the future, when this matter was mentioned, Daoist Guang Hong could use this as an excuse to evade responsibility.
Subsequently, everyone remained vigilant and kept watch towards the direction of the Liu Family's mountain gate. Fortunately, after the sand monster army engulfed the Liu Family's mountain gate, they did not continue their assault towards the three sects' locations, allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.
At daybreak, everyone returned to their respective sects. The teams of the three sects remained on high alert, keeping a close eye on the movements of the sand monster army.
When Meng Zhang returned to the flying boat of the Taiyi Sect, the Deep EarthSpirit General had already arrived much earlier. The Deep EarthSpirit General then detailed his actions from the previous night.
Under the cover of darkness, the Deep EarthSpirit General stealthily infiltrated the vicinity of Liu Family's mountain gate. Taking advantage of the Liu Family cultivators' attention being drawn by the sand monsters, he used the jade pendant that granted passage and opened a breach in the protective mountain formation of Liu Family's mountain gate. The sand monsters patrolling nearby immediately noticed the breach and swarmed inside.
By the time the Liu Family cultivators noticed the breach and attempted to close it, it was already too late. The influx of sand monsters had already damaged various nodes of the protective formation, rendering it completely ineffective in stopping the sand monsters.
Given the strength of the Liu Family cultivators, with the protective formation breached and facing the swarming sand monsters, there was only one outcome.
When the Deep EarthSpirit General left, the entire Liu Family's mountain gate had been occupied by the sand monsters, and there was no one left inside who could escape. Liu Family had been wiped out, and Meng Zhang had taken his revenge for his fallen comrades.
In the alliance of the three sects, tension spread after the fall of Liu Family. Aunt Jin even suggested to Daoist Guang Hong whether they should retreat first and disengage from the sand monster army.
While Daoist Guang Hong hesitated, reinforcements finally arrived. Led by Daoist Guang Hui, the combined forces of Forest Spring Watch and Shi Family were supposed to arrive much earlier but were delayed by a group of sand monsters' interception on the way.
Once Daoist Guang Hui arrived, without any delay, he immediately gathered all the Foundation Building cultivators in the team. After a period of recuperation, both Meng Zhang and the Deep EarthSpirit General should have recovered from their injuries.
When the two of them arrived at the command flying boat of Forest Spring Watch, they found that all Foundation Building cultivators were already present. Even Xu Yishan, who was seriously injured, attended despite his condition.
Daoist Guang Hui didn't dwell on the failures of the past; he went straight to the point and began organizing the battle plan. Forest Spring Watch's team stood in the center, while the teams of the other three sects and the Shi Family were arranged on the left and right flanks.
All teams advanced in unison, forming a solid wall pushing towards the sand monster army. The battle plan was simple but practical, perfectly suited to the situation at hand.
When all forces' teams are mixed together, it will actually affect their coordination, hindering them from fully exerting their combat power.
Guang HuiDaoist is a decisive figure. After making the arrangements, he sends everyone back to prepare for battle. Once he gives the order, they will immediately take action.
Before leaving, Guang HuiDaoist, with a fierce aura, says, "Any sect's team that performs poorly in battle and retreats without fighting, do not blame me for being merciless."
At this moment, Guang HuiDaoist's killing intent is evident, displaying the imposing manner of a Sect Master. Including Meng Zhang, everyone obeys without the slightest hesitation.
Shortly after Meng Zhang returns to the team of the sect, he starts to mobilize the troops and prepares for the upcoming battle.
After about half an hour, Guang HuiDaoist takes the lead and flies ahead with most of the Foundation Building stage cultivators from Forest Spring Watch. The other forces' Foundation Building stage cultivators fly near Guang HuiDaoist, all gathered together.
Behind Sect Master Guang HuiDaoist are Guang QuanDaoist, Guang DeDaoist, Guang RuiDaoist, and Guang HongDaoist. Following them are Gu Tanghai, Shi Weida, Shi Changqing, Zhao Jiudou, Lin Shenpo, Aunt Jin, Jin Qigu, Meng Zhang, and Deep Earth Spirit General.
In total, there are fourteen Foundation Building stage cultivators. In the entire Endless Sea of Sand, except for the Flying Swan Sect, no other sect can display such a scene.
Guang HuiDaoist leads everyone, flying fearlessly towards the sand monster army ahead. The flying teams of several forces follow behind.
The sand monster army must have already noticed the human side's movement. This time, they don't retreat but directly confront the humans.
An array of eight Second Rank sand monsters, with swirling sandstorms, charges toward the fourteen human Foundation Building stage cultivators.
The two sides, advancing at high speeds, soon collide. The point of impact is like a volcanic eruption, with hurricane-like winds and violent shockwaves spreading in all directions, raising clouds of dust.
In a battle against the sand monsters, no one dares to hold back their strength. Everyone goes all out. Second Rank sand monsters not only possess combat power on par with ordinary Foundation Building stage cultivators but are also insanely fierce, not caring about their own lives.
Scenes of them self-destructing along with human cultivators or dying together with humans are not uncommon.
Flying swords dart around, magic tools go haywire, and spells bombard the sky, turning it into chaos.
Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, after the human Foundation Building stage cultivators clash with the Second Rank sand monsters, the flying teams of the allied forces also arrive near the battlefield and are about to engage with the sand monster army.
The flying ships lower their altitude, and Refining Qi stage cultivators leap down from the ships, forming formations to face the enemy.
As soon as the allied forces finish arranging their formations, the sand monster army launches an offensive charge.
Waves of sand monsters crash upon the formation of human cultivators like violent waves in the sea.
A fierce and bloody battle erupts immediately.
Xu Yishan's injuries have not healed, making him unable to participate in the Foundation Building level battle. At this moment, he commands his Refining Qi stage subordinates to face the enemy, enduring his injuries and occasionally launching an attack to help relieve the pressure on his disciples.
In the high sky, Lin Bailin patrols around, monitoring the situation below to prevent any unexpected circumstances.
Being at the Foundation Building stage not long ago, he serves as a reserve force, not directly participating in the two major battles, but responsible for monitoring the battlefield.
