A Druid Also Can Cultivate
Chapter 545 - 434: Deadlock
This is an earth-shattering blood battle!
Even though the demon race was barely repelled by the combined efforts of Qi Ping and the Cyan Divine Army, it was simply because these high-ranking demons were unwilling to sacrifice their lives. Their specialty was using the endless low-level demons, fearless of death, to sweep away everything within the invaded world!
So when these high-ranking demons decided to escape through the void passage, Qi Ping and the Cyan Divine Army couldn’t completely stop those fleeing demons, no matter how hard they tried.
In just a brief moment, Qi Ping and Life and Death Daoist Master Meng Tianqi suffered severe injuries from some of the demons before they died.
Especially the self-destruction of some high-ranking Void Refining demons, even the Three Talents Array couldn’t completely block these attacks.
After just a few rounds of attacks, Qi Ping and Meng Tianqi’s physical bodies had no idea how many times they had shattered. If not for the large amount of healing honey they prepared, their combat power would have been greatly reduced by now.
The power of some demons was particularly bizarre, like maggots attached to the bones, impossible to shake off in the short term, continuously corroding and weakening the power of the physical body and divine soul, with toxins and illusion techniques being just the tip of the iceberg.
The injuries of the little Stone Spirit were even more severe.
Its vast body was bombed into potholes, countless stone blocks forming its body shattered.
The powerful warfare runes on its body mostly turned dim and lost their original strength.
Even a Void Level life form was wounded to such an extent, indicating how terrifyingly intense the war had been in such a short time. If it were not for the defense effect of the Three Talents Array, even the little Stone Spirit might not have survived.
This illustrated the horror of the Void Refining battlefield; bizarre methods endlessly emerged, and life and death lay just one step apart!
If it were one-on-one, the difficulty of killing each other would increase, but rising to this war level, no one could predict how many attacks would land on them the next moment, and encountering a restraining force could lead to death without a burial place.
Soon, Qi Ping and the others reached their limit, with more and more demons bypassing them to enter the void passage.
On the other side, the state of the Cyan Divine Army was not favorable either.
Most of them were Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Cultivators, and although there were many Nascent Soul cultivators, they were not the majority, and after several consecutive attacks, their Spiritual Qi quickly depleted.
However, this wasn’t the most severe issue; the exhaustion of Spiritual Qi was mitigated by the supply of Qi Replenishing Pills, which were ample for everyone.
The primary issue was the overwhelming pressure and burden the Qing Shen Tu Xian Array placed on the divine soul and physical body!
This array was indeed powerful, but not without cost; the burden it placed on the soul and body far exceeded any other array.
Thus, after the "Qing Shen General" phantom launched several attacks, some soldiers could no longer endure and fainted.
It’s known that every soldier of the Cyan Divine Army is a one-in-thousand prodigy, with a solid foundation that cannot be compared to others of the same level. The fact that even these elite could not endure illustrates the colossal pressure and burden brought by the Qing Shen Tu Xian Array.
Facing this situation, Qi Ping had no choice but to transmit a voice command to stop the Cyan Divine Army from continuing the attack and to switch to a defensive posture.
Because if they continued to attack, many soldiers would suffer irreparable damage!
This situation was absolutely not allowed to occur.
The Cyan Divine Army was one of the key factors in whether this world battlefield could be won.
This role was impossible for Qi Ping and his animal companions to replace, not even half of it.
What was the most terrifying aspect of the demon race in the world invasion war? One of the most terrifying aspects was the endless low-level demons. Apart from their low intelligence and fearlessness of death, their physical bodies and foundations were not inferior to cultivators of the same level.
Even the weakest demons were stronger than average cultivators.
So when the world’s will transitioned, and the realm battlefield formed, countless low-level demons would madly slaughter living beings and destroy the convergence points of the world’s power.
In this situation, even Qi Ping’s vast swarm of golden marrow bees was powerless.
Thus, when the realm war began, that super war, like a meat grinder, forced Qi Ping to rely on the Cyan Divine Army, Star Sea Academy, and Star Sea Mercenaries. Among these three forces, the Cyan Divine Army was the smallest in number but still the most crucial side.
They, who could fight one against ten, needed to take on the challenge, using battle arrays practiced countless times to face the berserk demons whose numbers and cultivation levels far exceeded theirs.
This was going to be an incredibly tough war, and the Cyan Divine Army needed to bear the brunt of the fiercest and craziest assaults from the enemy...
...
Under Qi Ping’s command, the Cyan Divine Army ceased their actions.
More and more high-ranking and mid-ranking demons crossed Qi Ping’s defense line.
They flew towards the void passage like locusts, carrying the threat of ascending to the Integration Stage through the Thunder Tribulation to escape from here.
And as more and more demons gathered, the Thunder Tribulation for Demon Blade Baili Yun’s advancement also reached an extreme, unable to kill the numerous demons in a short time.
In such a scenario, many demons with excess energy launched their strongest attacks towards Baili Yun before entering the void passage. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Baili Yun’s danger level instantly surged!
Faced with this situation, Qi Ping and Meng Tianqi wished to help, but were powerless; they were already in a state of severe injury, unable to muster the strength to assist.
The most important thing was that appearing near Baili Yun would only attract the Integration Stage Thunder Tribulation, which wouldn’t help but might cause additional chaos.
The demons dared to enter that range because they could cross the void passage into the Sea of Chaos, where the Thunder Tribulation could hardly chase them.
Although Qi Ping and the others could adopt this method, going into the demons’ stronghold would be akin to seeking death.
At this moment, Baili Yun could only rely on himself.
The most crucial factor was that this was Baili Yun’s own choice, to enter the most dangerous breakthrough through the most perilous path.
A breakthrough contender with such courage hadn’t appeared in the Immortal Cultivation Realm for many years.
However, if Baili Yun could successfully break through, not only would it bring unimaginable benefits to the Star Sea Continent, but he too would become renowned throughout the world, and an incredibly rare demon cultivator genius would resonate throughout all heavens and myriad realms!
If he can break through.
In just a brief moment, amidst the demon’s power and golden Thunder Tribulation, Baili Yun’s physical body and divine soul were shattered into countless fragments!
Baili Yun’s aura instantly weakened to the extreme; his will nearly completely crumbled.
Yet strangely, the Thunder Tribulation in the sky did not stop but continued!
Because although Baili Yun’s physical body and soul had dispersed, the demonic nature permeating the Celestial Secret remained fierce and intense...
