After hearing the news from the Nine Profound Tower's battlefield in the past ten days, Lu Ping was slightly surprised by the changes in the battle achievements list. Although Lu Ping had long since given up hope that he would be able to maintain first place on the leaderboard, he did not expect that he would still be ranked fourth.
In the face of Lu Ping's surprise, Ji Tianxuan could only express his grief. "Is the buffer zone's Mara that easy to kill? While the human cultivators are hunting the Morrow cultivators, isn't the Morrow cultivators also hunting the human cultivators? "
Lu Ping grunted and said, "So, human cultivators do not have the advantage in the buffer zone?"
Ji Tianxuan nodded and said, "If they have the advantage, why would they need the buffer zone? At best, they are evenly matched. Besides, the current Mara is very cunning. When human cultivators set up traps to kill Mara, these Mara would often beat them at their own game. Moreover, the originally brainless Mara has also begun to gain intelligence, making it easier for others to fall for it.
"Quite a number of sects had suffered greatly in the hands of the Demon Luo army. Thus, the cultivators from the various sects are now being very cautious when entering the buffer zone. Additionally, they are all forming alliances. They would rather get less battle merits from hunting down the Demon Luo army than to be too arrogant and attract the attention of the Demon Luo army. Under such circumstances, how many people can obtain a harvest every day?"
"Not only that, after entering the buffer zone, the cultivators not only face the increasingly cunning Mara's army, but also the cultivators of various sects with ulterior motives. In order to snatch battle achievements, they have killed and robbed people more than once or twice. Because of this, there have been many sects that have fallen out with each other. If not for the 13 pure Yang cultivators above them, I'm afraid that the encirclement of Mara this time would have become a motley crew being chased and beaten by Mara's army."
"In just 10 days, Qin Shijun has risen from the sixth place with 140 points to the first place with 195 points. That's only an increase of 55 points. On average, he only reaps one Blood Fiend per day. This is because of the reputation of the Crystal Palace, so they don't have to worry about someone secretly attacking them after entering the buffer zone. Moreover, every time the cultivators of the Crystal Palace enter the buffer zone, they have the advantage in numbers. In addition, the entire Crystal Palace now prioritizes taking care of Qin Shijun. Otherwise, the Asura that the Crystal Palace besieged back then would not have left the final blow for him."
In the northeast direction of the Nine Mysteries Tower battlefield, the Tianxuan Sect was also facing the attack of Mara's army. However, compared to the current Purple Sun Palace, the Tianxuan Sect's current situation was undoubtedly much better.
This was mainly because the Tianxuan Sect's Seventh Fan Laozu was an expert among the Pure Yang cultivators. Otherwise, the Tianxuan Sect would not have been repeatedly feared by the Wuxing School and the Holy Land of the Central Plains because of his appearance.
What's more, at this time, Tianxuan Sect also had a more terrifying pure Yang cultivator, Sky-splitting Swordmaster Xiao Baiyu. Under the cooperation of the two, although the Devil Army that attacked Tianxuan Sect still had two Celestial Demons, in fact, Tianxuan Sect really had the upper hand.
Under the joint suppression of the two Pure Yang cultivators, the two Sky Demons and most of the Asura in Mara's army were all restrained by the two of them. If it were not for the fact that the Tianxuan Sect's army was outnumbered, the Tianxuan Sect would have launched a counterattack long ago and defeated Mara's army.
Another important reason why the Tianxuan Sect did not launch a counterattack so easily was because of the existence of the Taixuan Sect's territory, which was not too far away from the Tianxuan Sect's camp!
The two sects had been enemies for many years. The Tianxuan Sect had never been afraid to think the worst of the other party. Unless the Tianxuan Sect had absolute confidence, they would not easily launch a counterattack against Mara's army. Otherwise, the Taixuan Sect would definitely not mind stabbing the Tianxuan Sect in the back.
In fact, the Tianxuan Sect had been fighting against Mara's army for so long, but the Tianxuan Sect had never taken action. In addition to the fact that the Tianxuan Sect's two Great Cultivators, Han Wuya and Huo Wuyin, had been seriously injured in Zhenling, and the Tianxuan Sect's two Pure Yang cultivators, Laozu, had been intimidating them, the most important reason was that when Mara's army invaded the Tianxuan Sect's camp, a group of Tianxuan Sect's elite cultivators had been patrolling outside the camp.
This group of elites, led by the Tianxuan Sect's Great Cultivator, Qingli Laozu, had launched a surprise attack against Mara's army. At the same time, they were also responsible for deterring and obstructing any forces who intended to plot against the Tianxuan Sect during the confrontation between the Tianxuan Sect and Mara's army.
This time, Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu had come to the Tianxuan Sect's camp because Lin Yu Laozu had received a secret message from Xiao Baiyu. Recently, the Tianxuan Sect had been planning a counterattack against Mara's army. Lin Yu Laozu, who had mostly recovered from his injuries, had decided to go and help. After Lin Yu Laozu informed Zhenling of this news through Lu Ping, Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu had rushed over first.
Last time, during the battle for Zhenling's camp, Xiahou Wushang and Yun Jian had gone all out to help Zhenling. Naturally, Zhenling would not remain indifferent to the Tianxuan Sect's counterattack against Mara's army. Not to mention, Zhenling wanted to become a large-scale sect in the future. The Tianxuan Sect was also one of the candidates for Zhenling's treasure ship. Thus, this was the best time to strengthen the relationship between the two sects.
Zhenling's camp was located to the north west of Nine Profound Tower while the Tianxuan Sect's camp was located to the northeast. There was a distance of several thousand li between them. In order for Zhenling's army to reach the Tianxuan Sect's camp, they would have to pass through a buffer zone of several thousand li. This was quite the test for Zhenling.
Currently, the strongest people in Zhenling's camp were Lu Ping, Tianshan Laozu, Tianqin Laozu, Yin Tianchu, and Xianglou Laozu. Among the five of them, Xianglou Laozu's Sea Bell could not be easily used in front of others. Lu Ping was the strongest and Yin Tianchu was proficient in secret techniques of concealment and had a good rapport with Lu Ping. The other two needed to be stationed at the camp to ensure safety. Thus, the task of rescuing the Tianxuan Sect was first placed on these two.
Besides Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu, Zhenling had also sent Qing Hu and the other two, as well as Liu Tianyuan and Tian Feng. However, the route that the five of them took avoided the dangerous buffer zone as much as possible. If they wanted to reach the vicinity of the Tianxuan Sect's camp, it would probably take some time.
If Lu Qin-er and Lu Hai were included in the House of Gold, Zhenling had sent out nine Dharma adepts in one fell swoop. This level of strength was enough to show Zhenling's sincerity.
Lu Ping and Yin Tianchu were both strong cultivators who were proficient in concealment techniques. They traversed thousands of miles of buffer zone and avoided fighting as much as possible. However, it still took them two days and one night to reach the vicinity of the Tianxuan Sect's camp.
However, along the way, two more Blood Shuras had fallen under Lu Ping's sword. Yin Tianchu had also taken the opportunity to kill a Blood Demon while Lu Ping was entangled with a team of Mara.
"Hey, there's movement!"
Lu Ping stretched out his hand to stop Yin Tianchu, who was behind him. His Divine Will spread out in all directions like a tide, even bringing up an undetectable gust of wind in mid-air.
Yin Tianchu tried to extend his Divine Will as far as he could, but to no avail. A look of helplessness flashed across his face.
Lu Ping sensed something and turned to look behind him. He smiled and said, "It seems we just so happen to be in the middle of a good show!"
Without saying a word, Yin Tianchu followed behind Lu Ping and turned to head north.
In a valley tens of li away, a battle between the humans and Mo Luo was in full swing. However, outside the valley, tens of cultivators were sneering as they observed the many cultivators who were fighting against Mo Luo's team. They did not do anything about it.
A magic array had taken shape on the highlands surrounding the valley, completely sealing off all the exits from the valley. Led by two great cultivators, several tens of cultivators stood outside the valley, hovering above the magic array as they watched the cultivators in the valley engage in a bloody battle with the Devil Luo army.
These two great cultivators were acquaintances of Lu Ping. One was the great cultivator of the Taixuan Sect, Han Wuya. The other was none other than the second-generation cultivator of the Cang Hai Sect, Wang Xuanqing, who had strangely raised his level of cultivation to the late Dharma stage.
At that moment, the two of them were smiling as they watched an old man entangled with a Jade Demon and two Jade Shuras in the valley. Han Wuya laughed loudly and said, "Brother Mara is indeed powerful. Even when three Jade Mara join forces, they are completely suppressed. I admit that I am no match for this kind of power!"
At the side, Wang Xuanqing smiled eerily and said, "You're going to die either way. Fellow Daoist Qing Li, you should kill a few more demonic auras so that we won't have to deal with the aftermath later!"
Han Wuya clapped his hands and smiled. "Wonderful, wonderful. Brother Xuanqing is right. Brother Qingli, did you hear that? Please fight Mara as much as you can. We have all the time in the world! "
Xiahou Wushang forced the Jade Shura in front of him to retreat. He took the opportunity to turn his flying sword and shoot it behind him. A Blood Shura that was trying to sneak up on him was instantly pierced by the flying sword.
Xiahou Wushang raised his head and looked at the cultivators of the Xuan Sect, who had trapped his sect and the Demon Luo army in the valley. His eyes shone with a murderous light, but then he had to use all his energy to deal with the Jade Shura in front of him, who was coming at him again.
On the other side of the valley, a beautiful and tall female cultivator had a cold expression on her face. Her entire body was filled with murderous intent, but there was a hint of hesitation. She looked at the handsome cultivator in front of her and said, "Sixth, why? Why did you betray us? Has the Xuan Sect ever done anything wrong to you?"
The handsome cultivator did not say a word. He just did his best to resist the female cultivator's attacks. But the female cultivator in front of him was clearly much more powerful than he was. If the female cultivator had not used her full strength, he would not have been able to last until now.
Qing Li Laozu's rolling voice suddenly came. "Don't say anything more. If you are so crazy, just kill her!"
The female cultivator's expression was one of pain and misery. She suddenly let out a shrill scream, and the fierce attack stopped. A strange look flashed across the handsome cultivator's face, and he said, "So the gap between us is so big …"
The female cultivator looked at the handsome cultivator whose chest was gurgling with blood as he fell backward. The bitter expression on her face turned into a ferocious one. She then leaped into the midst of Devil Luo's team.
