Xi Men Wo Xue

Chapter 280 No Spirit Stones Left

On a battlefield on the eastern side of the Dongzhou Continent, a group of demons was fiercely attacking a hilltop.

The mountain was occupied by a human force, consisting of only three early Nascent Soul cultivators leading a group of Core Formation and Foundation Establishment disciples.

Facing the surging demonic horde below, the human cultivators on the mountain could only retreat steadily.

"Master, Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother have all fallen. We can't hold on!"

A heavily wounded Core Formation cultivator collapsed on the mountaintop, saying despairingly to a white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator.

The white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator remained silent for a long time, sighing as he looked up. It seemed they could only all perish here.

"I still have some spiritual treasures here. Everyone, divide and use them! This old man can no longer use them!"

As the white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator spoke, he unfastened his storage bag at his waist and poured out the accumulated wealth of a Nascent Soul powerhouse, scattering it among the combatants on the mountain.

"Humans and demons are irreconcilable!"

"Today, this old man vows to fight the demons to the death. All disciples, follow me and charge!"

The other two Nascent Soul ancestors, inspired by him, also poured out the treasures they had treasured in their storage bags, distributing them to the disciples.

"Ancestors!"

"Humans and demons are irreconcilable!"

"Kill!"

The disciples on the mountaintop, having received the treasures hoarded by the three ancestors, felt no joy but rather grief and indignation in their hearts.

"All disciples, heed my command, follow me to our deaths!"

The white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator shouted, his robes fluttering, and he was the first to charge towards the demons below the mountain.

The remaining disciples roared and followed closely behind!

At this moment, they had no hope of victory. They were going to their deaths, aiming to tear off a piece of demonic flesh before they died.

Having fought the demons for so many years, deep-seated hatred had accumulated, and it all erupted from their hearts at this moment.

Even an ordinary man’s fury could spill blood five steps, let alone cultivators.

"Look! What a huge flying boat!"

Just as everyone's emotions reached their peak, someone shouted, perhaps at an inopportune moment.

Everyone involuntarily looked up at the sky. A massive flying boat was breaking through layers of clouds, descending above the battlefield.

"Ah! The legendary Sky-Piercing Giant Boat!"

In an instant, the atmosphere that had been painstakingly built up was utterly ruined!

Legends of the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat circulated throughout the entire Dongzhou Continent, said to be elusive and unpredictable in its movements.

However, every time it appeared, it would surely leave the battlefield littered with demon corpses!

In short, they were saved!

The reality was indeed as they had anticipated. After emerging from the clouds, the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat immediately unleashed hundreds of spell attacks, interspersed with attacks from ordinary magical treasures.

The demonic army that was attacking the mountain was already in disarray after several rounds of attacks. Following this, thousands of cultivators surged out from the flying boat.

These thousands of cultivators were at least at the Core Formation stage, with every hundred forming a team led by a Nascent Soul powerhouse.

Despite their numbers, they were orderly, advancing and attacking in concert, their coordination exceptionally默契.

The demons, already routed, could only brace themselves for slaughter when facing the assault of this elite force.

In just a moment, the demonic army that had been so arrogant moments before had become corpses spread all over the mountain.

The cultivators descending from the flying boat were skillfully collecting all the demon corpses, packing them into storage bags.

"Everyone, be thorough, don't miss any spoils of war."

"Hey! I'm talking to you! Didn't you see that huge demon toe? Pick it all up, don't waste it."

A Nascent Soul cultivator flying high in the sky shouted loudly.

Actually, he didn't know the value of these demon corpses. He felt it would be easier to just burn them.

However, the person on the flying boat had requested that all demon corpses be collected, so he dared not be careless.

Thinking of the peerless woman on the flying boat, he could only feel reverence in his heart, daring not to harbor any impure thoughts.

Because the last Nascent Soul cultivator who had impure thoughts about her had died a miserable death.

On another mountaintop, the white-haired Nascent Soul cultivator, who had been full of fighting spirit and ready to perish with the demons, now, in the face of victory, showed little joy. He sat on a large rock, tugging at his beard, appearing extremely distressed.

He now deeply understood what it meant to be alive but have lost all your money! His life's savings had been impulsively thrown away.

These little brats had actually taken all his possessions, and he wondered if they would return even a few spirit stones.

He really wanted to slap himself hard right now!

Just as he was wrestling with his thoughts, a powerful aura suddenly came from the distant sky. Even a Nascent Soul expert like him felt his body tremble.

On the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat in the sky, heavy light barriers immediately rose. Without paying any attention to the people on the ground, it transformed into a streak of light and accelerated its escape.

The Sky-Piercing Giant Boat arrived quickly, but it fled even faster, disappearing into the horizon within a single breath.

It was truly abandoning all pretense and any semblance of dignified bearing.

Especially its companions who were still on the battlefield collecting demon corpses were all abandoned.

However, these cultivators did not seem surprised at all when they saw the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat fleeing. Instead, they skillfully scattered in all directions, without any hesitation.

Only a group of human cultivators on the mountaintop were left staring blankly. In the blink of an eye, everyone had fled, as if they had never appeared.

Just then, the aura in the sky also manifested. It turned out to be a Soul Transformation demon with bone spurs all over its body.

This Soul Transformation demon seemed to be targeting the fleeing Sky-Piercing Giant Boat. It casually killed a few human cultivators and then, without further delay, pursued in the direction the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat had fled.

On the other side, aboard the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat, Huang Feifei was commanding the boat to fly at full speed, while all the defensive formations on the boat were activated.

All the spiritual energy cannons on the flying boat were fully charged, ready to unleash their full power.

"Report! The aura of that Soul Transformation expert behind us is getting closer!"

A cultivator anxiously reported to Huang Feifei.

The flying boat was already traveling at its maximum speed, but a Soul Transformation expert exerting full power was still much faster than the Sky-Piercing Giant Boat.

As the distance between the two sides narrowed, Huang Feifei calmly continued to command the flying boat.

"All spiritual energy cannons, prepare to fire!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

All the spiritual energy cannons on the flying boat simultaneously bombarded the bone-spurred demon from behind. They did possess some power, at least significantly slowing down the bone-spurred demon's flight speed.

Moreover, the opponent did not have the robust physique of the mountain-like demon from before, and dared not let the spiritual energy cannons bombard it carelessly.

"Report! The flying boat is running out of spirit stones!"

At this critical moment, a cultivator came to report a fatal piece of news to Huang Feifei.

The Sky-Piercing Giant Boat was indeed powerful, but its consumption of spirit stones was enormous. Flying required spirit stones, firing cannons required spirit stones, and defensive arrays also required spirit stones.

Especially the spiritual energy cannons; every shot fired consumed spirit stones.
