"You take the left, I'll take the right!" Gu Qing Shan quickly said.
"Got it!" Zhang Fang loudly replied.
He's also a Xiao Qi Chaplain, as well as a Foundation Establishment peak cultivator, as soon as he used the Spear's Secret, half of Gu Qing Shan's pressure was taken off.
At this time, outside the encirclement, layers upon layers of frost appeared on the ground, freezing countless demons in place, unable to even lift their feet.
"I can freeze them for 5 breaths, hurry up!" Bai Hai Dong's voice came.
"Very well!"
Gu Qing Shan and Zhang Fang's eyes lit up, both of them used their trump cards at the same time.
Secret Art, Water Flow Severance!
Secret Art, Dragon Leaving Mountain!
One sword and one spear, turning into the Grim Reaper that harvests lives, killing the demons in front of them.
Like a meat grinder, the two of them circled around the 5 female cultivators, clearing out all the demons around them.
Their charge was too fast, and they only cared about killing the demons, so when they met, they crashed into each other with a 'clang'.
Fortunately, their armors are sturdy, and there's a small formation to deflect the impact, borrowing the force of the collision, the two of them safely separated.
"We can still kill them one more time" Gu Qing Shan looked at the circle of demons covered in frost from afar and said.
"Then let's do it again" Zhang Fang grabbed his spear and said.
"Go!" Gu Qing Shan shouted, wielding the Earth Sword in her hand.
Both of them changed positions, using their full power.
Secret Art, [Crescent Slash]!
Secret Art, [Dragon Tail Swing]!
A streak of moonlight and a dragon flew into the midst of the demons, slashing and slashing, only slowly retreating after a few dozen feet.
"Your spear technique isn't bad" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"Your sword technique isn't bad either" Zhang Fang laughed.
The two of them stood on the left and right to protect the female cultivators, but there weren't any demons left standing around them.
The remaining demons in the distance saw that the situation was far from good, and quickly scattered in all directions.
At this time, Li Chu Chen also arrived, the group chased after them for a while before retreating.
They came in front of the monk's body.
After sighing, Gu Qing Shan buried him.
Only then did everyone sit down and take a short break.
"Your injuries aren't light, why don't you use healing pills?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"We used it up on the way back" the female cultivators replied.
Gu Qing Shan then took some of Bai Hua sect's herbs and gave them to the female cultivators.
He then said: "All of you heal up first, Li Chu Chen and Bai Hai Dong stay on guard, Zhang Fang and I need to rest"
"Alright."
The three male cultivators responded.
They looked at each other.
Zhang Fang was fine since he came late, so he didn't suffer any injuries. But Gu Qing Shan's armor was full of demon claw marks. Her shoulder armor was broken, revealing her bloodstained muscles.
Looking around, the ground was littered with shapeless demon corpses. Not a single demon's blood could reach within five steps of the female cultivators.
With a glance, the few of them knew what was going on.
— — this young sword cultivator's combat ability is truly terrifying, no wonder he became a Xiao Qi Chaplain at such a young age.
Gu Qing Shan hesitated for a while, but still didn't send a Communication Talisman to Ning Yuechan.
First of all, the female cultivators have already been saved, and second, Ning Yuechan might be doing some kind of mission right now. If she gets distracted, she won't be able to leave and will be affected instead.
Half an hour later.
The female cultivators' injuries had recovered a bit.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Why are you here?"
Liu Qing Yan's injuries were the lightest, so she answered: "We escaped from Water Valley Lake camp and were chased all the way here"
Gu Qing Shan and Zhang Fang were both shocked.
Zhang Fang asked: "What happened to Water Valley Lake camp?"
Liu Qing Yan's expression was full of fear as she answered: "The demons have all gone mad, attacking the camp without any regard for their lives, we really can't hold them off"
Zhang Fang's cold gaze fell on Liu Qing Yan, then softened a bit and said: "Don't be afraid, we're here"
Liu Qing Yan noticed his kindness, so she looked up to see that he was a male cultivator wearing a Xiao Qi Chaplain armor, she couldn't help but feel a bit more assured.
Gaining merit is too hard, even now they're only soldiers. For him to be able to become a Xiao Qi Chaplain, he must've gone through a lot of bloodshed, someone with real skills.
Liu Qing Yan gratefully nodded.
Seeing her reaction, Zhang Fang smirked.
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a bit, then suddenly asked: "When the camp was attacked, what did the most powerful demons look like?"
Liu Qing Yan thought for a bit, then answered: "There were too many demons, I was too panicked at the time so I didn't see any that stood out"
"How did the camp get destroyed?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
"The defensive formations lost their effect one by one, then the offensive formations also started to have problems"
"Without the support of formations, the demons only needed to attack a few times before they managed to break into the camp"
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
In a large-scale war, formations have always been humanity's strongest defense.
If they can't break the formations, the demons can't fight against human cultivators in close combat, they can only passively take a beating.
That's why the demons always come up with all sorts of plans to destroy humanity's formations as soon as the war begins.
But I don't know what method the demons used this time.
Since Gu Qing Shan isn't a formation user, even if he's a reincarnated person, he can't just guess without thinking.
He has to take a look at the camp's formation plate before he can make a preliminary judgment.
After thinking for a bit, Gu Qing Shan suddenly tapped her Inventory Bag and took out a whistling arrow.
She infused her spirit energy into the arrow.
A sharp noise was heard as a green light flew straight to the sky, visible even from afar.
A few moments later, a Daoist riding a spirit beast came.
His spirit energy pressure was almost solid, the injured female cultivators couldn't take it anymore and knelt on the ground.
Noticing their situation, the Daoist retracted his spirit energy pressure.
"Only one whistling arrow can be used, unless there's a big accident, it can't be used carelessly, don't you know that?" the Daoist sternly asked.
As Gu Qing Shan explained the situation, the other female cultivators also added on.
The Daoist's expression slowly became heavy.
"Take out your badges, I'll take a look first" he ordered.
They all threw their badges up in the air.
The Daoist first looked at the female cultivators' badges.
These badges can record the number of demons a cultivator killed, but only high-ranking cultivators of humanity have the right to see it.
"Hm, Heaven's Limit Sect's disciples, not bad at all, killing quite a few demons on the way" the Daoist's expression softened a bit.
He took Gu Qing Shan's and the others' badges, then glared at Li Chu Chen.
Li Chu Chen lowered his head, his legs trembling.
The Daoist returned their badges and said: "The two Xiao Qi Chaplains saved you in time, 5 Merit each, 1 for Bai Hai Dong"
The three of them were glad.
Military Merit is the most practical thing to get.
The Daoist ordered: "Very well, all of you head South, there's a General guarding the camp there, you'll temporarily settle down there and wait for further orders"
"Yes"
The Taoist priest nodded slightly and flew in the direction of the Water Valley Camp.
"What realm is he? Can you tell? "Zhang Fang asked.
"His realm is too far away from ours, I can't tell for sure, but I'm guessing he's an Ascended realm" Gu Qing Shan thought about it.
"Let's go" Zhang Fang sighed, "we'll go to the camp first and settle down the female cultivators"
"That's right, we need to leave right away"
