After the two Human-faced Poison Centipedes saw everyone retreat to a certain range, they didn't immediately rush up. Instead, they roared and seemed to be discussing something with each other. Although the cultivators present couldn't understand what the two poison centipedes were discussing, they understood that as long as they stayed here, the two Human-faced Poison Centipedes would rush up in a short while.
Qu Baiyi, who wore white robes, suddenly spoke up, "We still have twenty-four people here. Since everyone wants to stay here, we naturally all want the divine grasses hidden in the array formation. If we don't kill these two Human-faced Poison Centipedes, we won't be able to obtain the divine grasses. What I mean is that everyone split into two groups. One group will deal with one Human-faced Poison Centipede. Huo Erqi and I will form a group, and another ten people. "
As soon as Qu Baiyi's words fell, ten cultivators quickly landed beside Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi.
Ning Cheng's group of twelve didn't need to choose at all and directly came out.
Some of the slower cultivators saw Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi form a group and looked at each other in dismay. Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi were the strongest among the Grand Essence's 12 Sacred Children. Logically speaking, the two of them should each lead a group. But the fact was that the two of them ended up in the same group.
How many fools could cultivate to the Eternal Realm and enter the Grand Essence Mystic Realm? Everyone understood that Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi wanted to kill them with a borrowed knife.
Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi, plus ten other powerhouses, would have no problem dealing with one Human-faced Poison Centipede. As for the other twelve people, they didn't have any powerhouses to lead them. As such, the Human-faced Poison Centipedes could only be killed one by one. At most, they could only delay for some time.
Qu Baiyi wanted to stall for time. By the time they killed the first poison centipede, most of the other cultivators would have died. Then, they would free up their hands and kill the second Human-faced Poison Centipede. In this way, not only did they kill the two poison centipedes, but they also killed the second one. The number of people who could get a share of the divine grasses would also decrease.
Seeing the other group of twelve people remaining silent, Qu Baiyi continued with a cold voice, "This friend also said that everyone should work together and then distribute the divine grasses according to their strength. Since two Human-faced Poison Centipedes appeared here, I believe no one would not want to work and just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor, right? "
Saying that, he stared at Ning Cheng with cold eyes. Just a moment ago, it was Ning Cheng who opposed Huo Erqi's proposal.
Seeing Qu Baiyi staring at Ning Cheng, some of the cultivators standing close to Ning Cheng subconsciously stepped aside.
Huo Erqi promptly cooperated with Qu Baiyi and spoke up, "I agree with Baiyi's words. If you don't want to fight, then please leave this place immediately. However, there's something I have to say first. If anyone were to purposely leak information about this place after leaving this place, they would become a great enemy of Baiyi and I. "
When the cultivators heard the words of these two, they were already thinking of retreating. Who didn't know how powerful the Human-faced Poison Centipede was? However, no one dared to offend Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi.
Ning Cheng slowly walked out with a middle-rank spirit artefact long spear in his hand. He then spoke with a calm tone, "In that case, I'll be in the other group. Dao Friends who are willing to join my group, please come over. If you don't want to, then please leave. "
"I want to join Brother Huo and Brother Qu's group … …" Hearing Ning Cheng's words, someone immediately spoke up. Ning Cheng had already offended both Huo Erqi and Qu Baiyi, so who would want to join his group?
Ning Cheng showed a smile and spoke to Qu Baiyi, "Brother Qu, this friend said that he doesn't want to split up and wants everyone to attack together."
Before Qu Baiyi could answer, the cultivator's expression changed and quickly retorted, "You better be careful with your words. Don't try to sow discord. When did I say that I didn't want to split up?"
Ning Cheng gave a cold snort, "Don't you know how to count, or are you blind? The twenty-four people here are divided into two groups, and the other group already has twelve people. If you want to join, doesn't it mean that everyone will be added to the same group? "
"You …." The cultivator on seeing Ning Cheng's sophistry suddenly felt angry.
Huo Erqi saw the two Human-faced Poison Centipedes' auras growing stronger and stronger, as if they would rush over at any time. He no longer bothered to talk nonsense and spoke up with a cold voice, "That's it. Our group of twelve people will deal with the Human-faced Poison Centipede on the left. The others will deal with the one on the right. If you don't want to join the other group, then scram. "
Just as Huo Erqi's voice fell, the two poison centipedes rushed over.
Qu Baiyi and Huo Erqi brought out their weapons together and shouted to the others at the same time, "You guys block the other one."
Huo Erqi and Qu Baiyi both had formidable strength. The two of them stretched out their domains and quickly superimposed their own group's domains. The twelve people brought out their weapons at the same time and managed to block the Human-faced Poison Centipede on the left.
The other Human-faced Poison Centipede immediately rushed towards Ning Cheng's side and suppressed him with its spacial shackles. Ning Cheng didn't do anything at all. Instead, he stimulated his domain to block the Human-faced Poison Centipede's spacial shackles.
The two cultivators who wanted to escape ended up bound by the Human-faced Poison Centipede. Then, a spacial vortex appeared and sucked the two into the mouth of the Human-faced Poison Centipede. This side hadn't formed a team yet, and now that the poison centipede rushed over, they immediately lost two people. The remaining people immediately scattered.
The three cultivators on the periphery didn't hesitate to launch their escape lights and disappeared without a trace in an instant. Divine grasses were good, but no matter how good they were, they needed to be alive to enjoy them.
The rest of the people, including Ning Cheng, all ended up trapped by the Human-faced Poison Centipede's spacial shackles. Even if they wanted to leave, they couldn't.
"Everyone, let's do our best. Otherwise, we can only wait for death." Even without Ning Cheng's orders, someone already saw the danger.
Ning Cheng saw that the rest of the people didn't try to escape and chose to take action. Only then did he fully unleash his domain. At the same time, he also released a Maximal Flame Spirit Technique.
At this time, Ning Cheng's Maximal Flame Spirit Technique was no longer a pseudo-spirit technique like before. Instead, it was a true space-type spirit technique.
The Human-faced Poison Centipede attacking Ning Cheng's group had just swallowed two people and gained the upper hand. Therefore, it was in high spirits and spat out a grey spacial vortex. Seeing that another Eternal cultivator was about to be sucked into the giant mouth of the poison centipede, the surrounding space suddenly turned violent.
A similar spacial collapse appeared under the Human-faced Poison Centipede's giant mouth, and a terrifying hot aura spread out.
However, as soon as this spacial collapse appeared, the spacial vortex spat out by the Human-faced Poison Centipede kept chipping away at it. From this, one could imagine that in just a few moments, the spacial collapse brought about by Ning Cheng's Maximal Flame Spirit Technique would be completely sucked away by the spacial vortex spat out by the Human-faced Poison Centipede. Most likely, Ning Cheng hadn't fully activated his spirit technique yet.
A late-stage Eternal cultivator anxiously roared at Ning Cheng, "Don't use this meaningless spirit technique. Even if you cast this spirit technique, it wouldn't cause any damage to the Human-faced Poison Centipede ….."
Ning Cheng didn't care about this cultivator's roar at all. If he were such an idiot, he would have already died a hundred times over.
A Spiritual Consciousness Chop silently slammed into the Human-faced Poison Centipede's Sea of Consciousness, and the spacial vortex spat out by the Human-faced Poison Centipede suddenly weakened. Even the Eternal cultivator, who was about to be sucked into the vortex's giant mouth, managed to escape in a hurry.
While the cultivator was still in shock, a terrifying flaming spacial collapse exploded under the Human-faced Poison Centipede's head.
The Human-faced Poison Centipede screamed as the Maximal Flame Spirit Technique blew a hole in its chin, and black blood fell down like rain.
The moment Ning Cheng's Maximal Flame Spirit Technique exploded, the Human-faced Poison Centipede also forced the Spiritual Consciousness Chop out of its Sea of Consciousness.
The cultivators in the same group as Ning Cheng, how could they not understand Ning Cheng's strength at this time? Feeling confident, they immediately went all out. Even if Ning Cheng angered the Human-faced Poison Centipede and caused it to erupt with even more violent attacks, the battle was no longer one-sided.
All kinds of spirit techniques and spells erupted. Ning Cheng's Sea of Consciousness had already suffered a blow from the Spiritual Consciousness Chop, and Ning Cheng's Maximal Flame Spirit Technique had also injured the Human-faced Poison Centipede's Sea of Consciousness. Even if it started a riot, it would only last for a short period. As long as they could survive this period, they could gain the upper hand.
No one knew that Ning Cheng had used a Spiritual Consciousness attack. But everyone knew that they had to survive this period.
Ning Cheng only occasionally used one or two Maximal Flame Spirit Techniques during the fight. He only used the Traceless Spear Pattern to deal with the Human-faced Poison Centipede.
The Human-faced Poison Centipede had many means of attack. In addition to the Poisonous Mist Blades, its blade-like feet, which were akin to spirit artefacts, would explode every time it collided with a cultivator's spirit technique.
However, the Human-faced Poison Centipede's most powerful attack was its spacial vortexes. Once someone got caught in the spacial vortexes of the Human-faced Poison Centipede, they would end up in the mouth of the Human-faced Poison Centipede.
Ning Cheng didn't use any killing moves; instead, he constantly used the Spiritual Consciousness Chop to launch sneak attacks. Once someone got caught in the spacial vortexes of the Human-faced Poison Centipede, he would immediately use the Spiritual Consciousness Chop. Every time the Human-faced Poison Centipede's Sea of Consciousness suffered an attack, its spacial vortexes would suddenly stagnate. At this time, Ning Cheng's long spear would inevitably arrive and rescue the cultivator caught in it.
This made the Human-faced Poison Centipede extremely angry. Although it didn't let Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness Chop enter its Sea of Consciousness, Ning Cheng's actions had seriously affected its strength. At every critical moment, it had to let go of its prey. This kind of grievance made it want to rush to Ning Cheng's side and swallow him whole.
After a long time, the cultivators in Ning Cheng's group started to see the problem. The reason why their group could gain the upper hand, and none of the seven people had fallen so far, was all thanks to Ning Cheng.
As long as Ning Cheng didn't fall, none of them could get swept away by the Human-faced Poison Centipede. As for the poisoned blades on their bodies, after the Human-faced Poison Centipede died, they would have plenty of time to detoxify it. In the end, among the seven people, two people were assigned to protect Ning Cheng, while the rest focused on attacking the Human-faced Poison Centipede with all their might.
No matter how powerful the Human-faced Poison Centipede's corporeal body was, or how powerful its spacial vortexes were, with Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness Chop sneak attacking it from the side, it couldn't exert its full strength. In a one-on-one fight, Ning Cheng's current Spiritual Consciousness Chop couldn't do anything to the Human-faced Poison Centipede. But now was not a one-on-one fight. As long as Ning Cheng could contain the Human-faced Poison Centipede's maximum lethality, someone else would go and kill the Human-faced Poison Centipede.
Similar to what everyone expected, in less than half an hour, the Human-faced Poison Centipede's rampage weakened. At this time, Ning Cheng didn't even need to use the Spiritual Consciousness Chop; the others could easily suppress the Human-faced Poison Centipede.
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, the Human-faced Poison Centipede let out a roar, and a black-faced cultivator slammed it to the ground, unable to get up again.
