Chapter 77: Small Vi tory

The instant Yu Zhiqing tore a hole through the formation, Ran Biluo who was fighting Liu Qinglan turned and flew in that direction.

Liu Qinglan flung her whip at Ran Biluo. “Why are you leaving now? We’re just getting started!” 

Countless rings came from Ran Biluo’s sword and Liu Qinglan’s expression sank. Her wrist trembled lightly and her whip separated again. It clashed violently with the sword qi in the air.

As Liu Qinglan had comprehended the dao of fusion and separation, her weapon was built on that!

It was too bad her Seven Segment Whip was weaker than Ran Biluo’s Seven Conch Sword. Even her cultivation was weaker than Ran Biluo by two layers!

She might have shattered Ran Biluo’s sword qi, but one of the segments of her whip was damaged.

Even so, that was the price she had to pay to delay Ran Biluo for an instant.

With her expression darkening, Ran Biluo couldn’t understand why there were two accidents ever since they arrived. First came Liu Qinglan and they could deal with that. Now, there was an old freak from the Scripture Depository of the Tongyou Institution. How were there so many Fourth Order Primary Realm cultivators?!

How much was Kou Chongxue actually hiding?!

What pissed her off even more was that Yu Zhiqing was injured by the opponent!

As she cursed him in her heart, she started to waver. She didn’t know if the Four Spiritual Peak’s plan would go like how they thought it would.

Well, Yu Zhiqing was sent flying, but he was alive. The most urgent matter was dealing with the disciples who were trapped deep within enemy lines.

Even though they had slightly more than ten Martial Intent Realm cultivators and Ran Biluo had confidence in their ability to hold out for some time, all of them represented the precious fighting power of the Four Spiritual Peak! If anything went wrong, their overall strength would take a great hit!

Not to mention the fact that there were three experts among them from her race.

That was the reason she was trying to brush Liu Qinglan off. She wanted to save her fellow clansmen when the protection formation was still broken.

The moment she moved, Liu Qinglan saw through her intention.

No matter what she had to do, she couldn’t allow Ran Biluo to achieve her goals.

From the start, Ran Biluo had always been in an advantageous position. The two of them circled the Tongyou Peak six times and she had been wasting the formation’s power from time to time. Who would have thought that Liu Qinglan would thwart her plans to save the cultivators of the Four Spiritual Peak!

Liu Qinglan could delay Ran Biluo for a moment, but she couldn’t stop her entirely. She could only request for support. “Do not let her get away!” 

The moment she spoke, the heaven and earth qi in the surrounding started to shake. A hundred feet long spear stabbed straight at Ran Biluo before anyone could react.

“Shang Clan Spear!” Ran Biluo gasped in fright. A trace of fear flashed across her face, but she quickly calmed down when she noticed the power contained in the strike. 

The weapon was the Shang Clan Spear, but the user wasn’t as strong as she thought. “You’re not Shang Bo! How dare you try laying your hands on me?” 

Rage stormed in her heart as she summoned countless rays of sword qi that crushed the phantom of the Shang Clan Spear.

A loud blast rang through the air as the mid-grade weapon returned to the Pinxin Peak.

Behind Ran Biluo, several dozen waves of sword qi appeared and flew towards her.

“Preposterous!” Ran Biluo cried and the sword in her hand started to dance. It destroyed every sword qi that came her way.

Much of the remaining sword qi smashed into the protection formation and sounds of rattling ensued.

It didn't matter how powerful the summoned sword qi or spear light was. In the face of an expert at the Martial Extermination Realm, they were useless!

The only person who could do anything to Ran Biluo was Liu Qinglan!

The Seven Segment Whip appeared beside Ran Biluo’s face silently. Before Liu Qinglan could celebrate, Ran Biluo whipped her hair around to trap the segments.

As three rays of light appeared around her, Ran Biluo’s hair turned into snakes that coiled around the whip segments…

The Tongyou Peak’s five man formation was a well-kept secret even in the Protection Division. Only the most elite of cultivators would be taught the ability of the foundation after entering their patrol squads.

Of course, that only applied to cultivators under the Martial Intent Realm. Anyone in the Martial Intent Realm would be taught the basics and they could lead a team in case of any emergencies. That was the true core of the Tongyou Peak’s strength!

Even though three of the four captains weren’t from the Protection Division, they were still able to utilize the five man formation!

The eight squads charged into battle immediately.

Facing the ferocious attack, the members of the Four Spiritual Peak started to panic.

With their cultivation base, they might stand a chance of winning if they were of one mind. Everything changed when the rattling of chains sent three of their strongest Martial Intent Realm cultivators flying through the air. 

That was right. The protection formation wasn’t there for show. If the chains could stop Yu Zhiqing’s spear, it was more than enough to deal with several puny Martial Intent Realm cultivators.

The remaining cultivators were thrown into disarray and many of them tried to escape. They were cursing the fact that they had too little legs and couldn’t run any faster.

The patrol squads cut straight through their disorderly formation. 

Even though it was easy to kill a Martial Intent Realm cultivator in battle, it was a different story when they focused all their attention on running.

Regardless of how heavy their encirclement was, the patrol squads only managed to capture two Martial Intent Realm cultivators who were burnt by Dong Qianzui’s flames earlier. 

As for the three who were thrown into the air by the chains, one of them managed to escape using some sort of secret art and he left the radius protection by the array.

His escape seemed to have enraged the Tongyou Peak’s protection formation as the chains started swaying violently, smashing the two other cultivators into meat paste.

Seeing as the protection formation had recovered and the tear had healed to the size of a fist, the patrol squads regrouped and killed whoever they could. The two Martial Intent Realm cultivators who were trapped died, along with half a dozen cultivators at the Martial Extremity Realm.

In the end, four Martial Intent Realm cultivators were killed and a huge portion of the cultivators at the Martial Extremity Realm died! The Four Spiritual Peak suffered a crushing defeat on their first offensive!

On the side of the Tongyou Peak, only six riders died due to the struggle the Martial Intent Realm cultivators put up.

All of a sudden, two lone Martial Intent Realm cultivators rushed down from the Tongyou Peak.

Kang Ci sighed, “If only you came earlier. We might be able to hold a few more of them back!” 

He didn’t speak blindly. Strictly speaking, the patrol squads were really outgunned. The opponent had close to twice the number of Martial Intent Realm cultivators they had, and their strength was slightly lacking when compared to the other side.

“What happened on the Kaiyuan Peak?” Shang Xi’s expression was ugly and she asked.

According to their estimates, every elite student who came in to support the Tongyou Peak would finish off the spies of the Rose Party before meeting up to repel the Four Spiritual Peak’s attack.

Their seamless plan actually went awry and the bridge connecting the main peak to the Kaiyuan Peak was destroyed! The cultivators of the Four Spiritual Peak took the chance to cut a hole in their protection formation, forcing Dong Qianzui to reveal himself.

Luckily for them, Kang Ci’s reaction was quick and he brought several squads over to stop the cultivators of the Four Spiritual Peak.

Shaking his head, Kang Ci sighed, “I don’t know. Yuan Zilu, Yuan Zhen, and Yun Yifei didn’t come according to plan. Looks like they went over to the Kaiyuan Peak instead.” 

As he spoke, he ordered the patrol squads to retreat further into the Tongyou Peak.

“Who’s in charge of the Kaiyuan Peak?” Shang Xi pressed.

“Tang Yuan, Sang Youqi, and Jia Yuntian!” Kang Ci replied.

“Which one do you think is the spy?” Shang Xi sighed.

A trace of hesitation flashed across Kang Ci’s face, but a terrified expression soon appeared when he turned to look at the barrier.

“Run!”
