746: Chapter 224_2 746: Chapter 224_2 “All of them were among the first batch to have consumed the pills given by the Sect Leader at the Golden Core Stage, and each of them increased their Golden Cores by at least one!”
“Moreover, on our side, we have Bei Yan, who is at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, while the other side has only two who have completed pill fusion with ten Golden Cores.
Although within each of their Golden Cores, there are nine different phenomena.”
“But within the Hundred Peaks Sect, there are so many at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection; he fully realized how significant the difference was between them and those at the Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion.”
“The other side doesn’t even have one at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.”
“With such a comparison, our strength certainly isn’t inferior to theirs.”
“Below, members of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect looked up at the Disciples of Hundred Peaks Sect emerging from the Flying Boat, and for a moment, they were taken aback by the sight of the Golden Cores manifested behind each of the disciples.”
“Are the Golden Cores of these disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect so numerous?”
“Have they sent out their elite?”
“The Hundred Peaks Sect has dispatched five teams this time, each team consisting of forty Golden Core Stage cultivators.
It’s impossible that all the teams are this strong, right?
Where are their Golden Core First Layer and Golden Core Second Layer disciples?”
Among the Red Refinery Demonic Sect members, one at the Nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pill Perfect Completion whispered to a comrade of the same level, “The Hundred Peaks Sect can’t possibly dispatch such strong teams for every squad; we may have just encountered their elite team.
Brother Hong Li, what should we do now?”
Hong Li nodded slightly upon hearing this and spoke in a grave voice, “They are not fools; they must have guessed that we would target the team led by Bei Yan, so they assigned their strongest team to Bei Yan.”
“However, our goal was never to kill them but to tarnish the reputation of the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Our target is only those children.”
With a ferocious expression, Hong Li stated, “Split ten people to assist me and Junior Brother Kong Ling in holding off Bei Yan.
The rest need not entangle with them in combat.
Everyone, attack the Flying Boat.
I want every child inside that boat to die!”
In fact, this time, the task of attacking the Hundred Peaks Sect’s disciple recruitment team should have been carried out by the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.
But for some reason, the Eclipse Demon of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect lost all his subordinates and claimed to have been severely injured.
He is currently unable to move and recuperating from his injuries.
And the Sun and Moon Demon Sect did not have the resources to spare at the moment.
Thus, they had to summon members of the Red Refinery Demonic Sect to come instead.
The Red Refinery Demonic Sect also had their arrangements in various locations, and although they tried their best to mobilize reinforcements, they managed to gather only just over seventy Golden Core Stage cultivators.
Therefore, upon learning that every Hundred Peaks Sect team was led by someone at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and each team had forty Golden Core Stage cultivators, they changed their target.
Initially, they planned to kill the people of the Hundred Peaks Sect and then capture all the disciples that the Hundred Peaks Sect had recruited.
After all, they too needed fresh blood and disciples.
But the strength of the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect unexpectedly surpassed their expectations, so they changed their target to directly kill the children recruited by the Hundred Peaks Sect.
These children were recruited by the Hundred Peaks Sect in front of countless mortals.
If they had just taken these children and failed to bring them into Hundred Peaks safely, letting them all get killed along the way, how would the mortals view the Hundred Peaks Sect then!
The prestige of the Hundred Peaks Sect, unable even to protect its own recruits, would surely plummet!
As Hong Li finished speaking, the disciples from the Red Refinery Demonic Sect all around started to move, launching attacks at the Flying Boat at the center of the Hundred Peaks Sect’s protective formation.
They could be said to have an absolute advantage.
Although the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect were higher in cultivation base, they had to protect the Flying Boat and dared not stray far from it, nor could they rush down to annihilate their attackers.
Even as Divine Powers descended, the people from the Hundred Peaks Sect did not dare to dodge.
But it was different for them.
They had nothing they needed to protect.
If they could dodge the incoming Divine Powers in time, naturally they would.
What’s more, they outnumbered the opponents.
Even though the cultivators from the Hundred Peaks Sect were higher in cultivation, they quickly found themselves restrained in combat and soon fell into a disadvantageous position.
As both sides released their Divine Skills against each other, suddenly, a pitch-black spear formed from intense demonic energy shot down, aiming directly at a Golden Core Fourth Layer disciple from the Hundred Peaks Sect.
Almost instinctively, the disciple attempted to evade.
But in the next moment, a loud shout came, “Do not dodge!”
He quickly realized why: their Flying Boat, which held all the children they had recruited this time, was behind him.
Of course, the Flying Boat wasn’t completely defenseless.
Ordinary weapons like mortal bows and arrows could not penetrate it, but if an attack from a Golden Core Stage master were to hit, it could certainly break through the boat’s defenses.
He could not dodge!
In his haste, he had no time to use his Protective Divine Power against the incoming pitch-black spear; he had to stand his ground and use his own body, protected by his Protective Divine Power, to block the spear.
In less than a breath’s time, the black spear landed, striking him hard.
A sound like a giant rock shattering echoed as the golden light of his protective aura shattered instantly.
The spear, manifested from the Demonic Qi, violently pierced into his body, and the endless demonic energy rampaged within him like a flood breaking through a dam.
