Tiancheng and Laozu had not expected Lu Ping to agree so readily to make elixirs when the battle for the mid Dharma stage battle credits was at its most intense. Only Laozu had her head lowered as she sipped on a cup of steaming spirit tea. The rising mist made it difficult for others to see the expression on her face.
Tiancheng Laozu laughed dryly and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Martial Nephew!"
The battlefield with the Nine Mystical Tower as the center could be roughly divided into three regions. The central region was where the Nine Mystical Tower was located, as well as the thousands of Mara's troops that were currently surrounding the Nine Mystical Tower. The outermost region was the encirclement formed by the major sects of the human race, with the Nine Mystical Tower and Mara's army at the center. And in the middle of these two regions, there was a ring that was thousands of miles in depth. This was the buffer zone between the human race cultivators and Mara's army. At the same time, it was also the battlefield where the human race cultivators and Mara's army hunted and killed each other.
At this time, other than the Nine Mystical Tower, the Purple Sun Palace, the Tianxuan Sect, and the Skyward Pavilion, which were still being attacked by Mara's army, the other sects had basically formed a balance with the Mara's army. Both sides were facing off and killing each other in the buffer zone that was thousands of miles in radius.
And this circular buffer zone had also become the main source for the cultivators of the various sects to hunt down Mara and snatch battle credits.
At this moment, in a place several tens of kilometers away from a hill, Ji Tianxuan was cursing loudly as he hurriedly applied various puppet secret techniques to the puppet he was standing on.
"After this time, I'm not going to do this mission anymore. I'm going to find all the best spiritual materials and make a top-notch life puppet. It's over, it's over, it's all over!"
Ji Tianxuan threw three black wooden blocks behind him, each about a foot long. Then he took out a talisman and slapped it on the puppet skylark beneath him. A series of cracking sounds came from the puppet skylark's body, and Ji Tianxuan could not help but twitch his mouth in pain.
A few hundred feet behind Ji Tianxuan, a Jade Shura was chasing him. Behind the Jade Shura were five or six blood Mara, and behind these high-level Mara, there were nearly a hundred large and small Mara following him in a mess.
The three black wooden blocks that Ji Tianxuan tossed out shocked the Jade Shura, who was chasing after him. She couldn't help but slow down. The human cultivator in front of her had used some strange items to give them some trouble, so she had to be careful.
The Jade Shura slashed forward with one hand, and Ji Tianxuan did not even see the Jade Shura use her companion spirit treasure before one of the three wooden blocks was split in half. But Ji Tianxuan was sure that the Jade Shura had used her companion spirit treasure before.
Fortunately, he finally had a chance to catch his breath!
Ji Tianxuan took the opportunity to widen the distance between him and the Jade Shura to a thousand feet, and the other two wooden blocks suddenly wriggled and changed. Two wooden puppets suddenly formed, and they pounced toward the blood Mara behind the Jade Shura. Although they were quickly destroyed by the blood Mara, they still caused some confusion.
Seeing that the Jade Shura was about to catch up to Ji Tianxuan, Ji Tianxuan actually breathed a sigh of relief, because the hill he had planned on was now right in front of him.
"This is the last chance to lure the enemy!"
Ji Tianxuan secretly made up his mind. The puppet skylark under his feet suddenly made a big turn in the air, and from its previous pathetic escape, it turned into a direct confrontation with the Jade Shura. But at this time, the puppet skylark under his feet had been activated by his puppet secret skills, and it had completely fallen apart just as it completed its turn. Ji Tianxuan himself almost fell to his death from the air.
At this time, the Jade Shura instinctively discovered the potential threat, and at this time, the army of nearly a hundred Mara finally caught up. Seeing that Ji Tianxuan was no longer running, they all rushed toward Ji Tianxuan without the Jade Shura's command.
Ji Tianxuan chuckled. At this time, the Jade Shura finally realized the reason why it felt threatened, and suddenly let out a howl. Nearly a hundred Mara suddenly received the opposite order when they were rushing in the air, causing them to inevitably become chaotic in the air.
At this time, more than ten streaks of light of different colors suddenly rose from behind the hill, forming a loose encirclement that actually surrounded the nearly a hundred Mara troops.
"Hehe, I actually attracted a Jade Shura. It belongs to me now!"
Before Green Fox's voice had even faded, the dozen or so giant fireballs at Tiancheng Laozu's side had already responded. More than ten fireballs of different colors rushed toward the Jade Shura from all directions, sealing off all possible escape routes for the Jade Shura.
He was just an early Dharma stage human practitioner!
A look of disdain flashed across the Jade Shura's face. She decided to first kill this ungrateful human practitioner and devour the source. But the fire element source did not seem to be very compatible with her, but so what?
The Jade Shura howled, and the companion spirit treasure in her hand finally lit up. It was a golden spirit treasure that looked like a crab's pincers. She first went to pinch the burning flame on Tiancheng Laozu's chest. She could instinctively sense that the flame Tiancheng Laozu was holding on his chest was the core of the dozen or so flames around him, and it was also the most threatening one!
But before the Jade Shura's companion spirit treasure could get its hands on it, the dozen or so flames surrounding it, as well as the one on Tiancheng Laozu's chest, collapsed like waves of fire. They quickly merged together and formed a sea of fire. Tiancheng Laozu hid in the sea of fire as soon as it formed.
Outside the sea of flames, Qing Hu watched as the Celestial Zither Ancestor dove into the sea of flames. She sighed heavily and said, "This move again!"
Green Wolf followed behind Green Fox and smiled. "Big Sister, you don't really want to steal Tiancheng Laozu's credit. Why do you have to do this?"
Green Fox hummed and said, "So what if I do want to steal it? We are serving Lu Tianping, not Zhenling!"
Green Tiger laughed coldly behind her. "Then let's show Lu Tianping some respect. Even if we don't steal his elder's credit, there's nothing to say if we steal someone else's."
Green Fox laughed evilly and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Green Wolf looked at the Sea of Fire in midair and said thoughtfully, "However, this Sea of Fire from Elder Tiancheng is really not to be underestimated. He has been accumulating battle credits very quickly, and now he has already secured a spot on the early Dharma stage leaderboard. He should be catching up to Liu Tianyuan soon, right?"
Green Tiger said disdainfully, "He has a mid Dharma adept helping him. How could his credit not go up?"
Green Wolf laughed coldly. "Nowadays, it's not uncommon for high-level adepts to help low-level adepts earn credit."
Green Fox interrupted their argument and said, "Stop talking nonsense. If we don't make a move now, we'll have to kill Little and Little Mara!"
The three of them knew very well that it would not be easy to steal credit from Tiancheng Laozu. Even though Tiancheng Laozu was only an early Dharma adept, the power of his fire spell was not to be underestimated. Even with the help of the two mid Dharma adepts, Tianqin and Laozu, it was not the first time that Tiancheng Laozu had killed a Jade Shura.
Green Fox thought that the two adepts of the same level, Tianqin or Tianshan, were only slightly more experienced than her, but the three of them rarely dared to kill a Jade Shura alone. It was clear that when Tiancheng Laozu used this fire spell, Green Wolf and Green Tiger would not be able to defeat him even if they worked together.
The three of them rushed into the midst of the demonic shura horde, and immediately snatched a blood shura amidst Ji Tianxuan's curses. With the three of them working together, and Qing Hu being an authentic mid Dharma adept, Qing Hu killed the blood shura very smoothly and successfully snatched the three points.
It was just that Ji Tianxuan was so anxious that he kept cursing and swearing behind the three of them. He swore that he would never do this mission of luring the enemy ever again. Every time he risked his life to lure Mara's team, he would end up with nothing to show for it. Among the few early Dharma adepts of Zhen Ling Sect who were currently fighting for battle credits, his battle credits were the worst.
Amidst a series of thunderous explosions, a Blood Devil lured by Qin Yu and Qin Gang was executing its Soul-devouring ability when Lei Laoliu, who was hiding behind them, suddenly launched a sneak attack. A series of thunderous divine abilities blasted the Blood Devil into a daze. Before the Blood Devil could react, Lei Laoliu had already attacked again. With the cooperation of the Qin brothers, he killed the Blood Devil.
As the Blood Demon's body disintegrated, a Soul Devouring Crystal was left behind, which Qin Yu hurriedly kept. With this Soul Devouring Crystal, he could exchange it with Zhenling for a portion of the Soul-returning Elixir or Soul-nourishing Elixir, as well as a considerable amount of training resources from the temporary market place.
As the battle with Mara became more intense, the casualties among the human practitioners increased. Many practitioners who had been injured by the Soul Devouring Power of the Blood Demon were unable to recover from their injuries due to the lack of Soul Devouring Crystals. This caused the value of the Soul Devouring Crystal to rise steadily.
Qin Gang's face was a little pale. It was obvious that the battle with the Blood Demon had consumed a lot of his energy, but he still looked excited as he said to Sixth Brother Lei, "Brother, it's another 15 points. We're almost on the list, aren't we?"
Sixth Brother Lei took out the Imaging Stone and looked at it, then smiled at Qin Gang and said, "It should be. But the early Dharma stage battle rankings change too quickly, so it's hard to say. After all, it's rare to see such a well-timed ambush."
Among Liu Tianyuan, Li Tianru, and Ji Tianxuan, only Ji Tianxuan remained indignant, while Li Tianru and Liu Tianyuan merely smiled and turned to deal with another Blood Demon. By now, Liu Tianyuan's position on the battle rankings was becoming more and more stable, so he did not mind giving up a Blood Demon to Qing Hu and the others. Moreover, Qing Hu and the other two had special statuses. Liu Tianyuan and Li Tianru were mature enough to not want their sect to lose such a powerful ally.
