Chapter 86 - Borrowing the Fat of the Nation! Fifth Level Golden Core Against Tenth Level Golden Core!
Chapter 86: Borrowing the Fat of the Nation! Fifth Level Golden Core Against Tenth Level Golden Core!
The creatures in the desolate mountain were all trembling. Some of the ordinary wild beasts were already scared to the point of lying on the ground.
Two battles.
Feces and urine were flowing everywhere!
Some of the demonic beasts that were not very strong also had frightened and fearful expressions.
A great demon at the tenth layer of the Golden Core stage was really too strong!
It was just one step away from the Nascent Soul realm!
A fierce gale was pressing down from the high sky, and many big trees were suddenly broken at the waist, and countless leaves were dancing in the sky like dust.
Under the dim moonlight...
One could clearly see a huge demonic beast flapping its wings in the sky.
Its eyes were slightly scarlet.
Its vertical pupils looked down.
......
“... We’re in big trouble.”
The black-clothed old man’s expression was extremely grave. Anyone would panic now, but he was the only one who could not panic. He had to maintain a calm mind and protect the Princess.
“Your Highness, please follow them and leave immediately. This old slave will hold this beast back!” the black-clothed old man said in a deep voice.
Although both sides had the strength of Golden Core, he was not sure how long he could hold back.
The gap between the fifth layer of Golden Core and the tenth layer of Golden Core was larger than one would imagine.
He continued to say, “If we walk a bit further, we will be in the Spirit Sword Sect’s territory. This beast should not dare to step into it.”
“There are quite a few Nascent Soul cultivators in the Spirit Sword Sect!”
As he spoke, he looked at the Human Puppet.
“My Lord, this move may be a bit presumptuous, but this old servant requests you to protect Her Highness the princess. She is the daughter of the current crown prince of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Little Princess of the Great Yan Dynasty.”
“If you can protect Her Highness the Princess’s safety and escort her to a safe place, the Great Yan Dynasty will definitely repay you!”
The black-clothed old man’s tone carried a pleading tone, and it could be seen that he was anxious.
He was so anxious that he revealed the identity of the woman.
The black-clothed old man did not count on those Foundation Establishment stage people in the provincial capital.
Do you want these people to protect Her Highness the Princess? It was still uncertain who would protect who!
Among all the people present, only the strength of the Human Puppet was at the Golden Core stage like him.
At such a critical moment, he could only beg the Human Puppet.
There was no other way!
“... alright!”
Bai Yi was not a fool. Letting the Human Puppet fight a level ten Golden Core great demon was undoubtedly sending him to his death.
Since the black-clothed old man was willing to stay behind to cover the rear, he decisively complied with the other party’s wishes.
The next moment–
The black-clothed old man had already stepped into the air. In the blink of an eye, he was standing at the same level as the great demon in the sky. He was the first to attack.
A bright mystic light bloomed in the sky, revealing a kind of dense killing intent!
Boom!!
The shocking explosion made people’s eardrums almost burst. The cultivators of the Provincial Capital on the ground had horrified expressions on their faces. All of them secretly swallowed their saliva.
They focused their gazes on the Human Puppet.
The battle of the Golden Core stage was not something that Foundation Establishment cultivators like them could participate in.
Although...
As long as there were enough Foundation Establishment cultivators, they could also fight against Golden Core stage cultivators in a battle formation.
Howver, they only had four!
Even if the Princess was included, there were only five Foundation Establishment cultivators.
What battle formation could only require five people to form a battle formation, and could also fight against Golden Core stage cultivators?
Even if there was, they wouldn’t do it!
The Princess did not look too surprised, but a trace of unwillingness flashed in her eyes. She was very clear that only if the black-clothed old man tried his best to stall the other party, she and the others could retreat.
However...
“Whew!”
She let out a heavy breath and looked at the Human Puppet. “My Lord, do you know the way to Qinghe County?”
She made this decision. Her rationality had the upper hand and she did not stall for time.
The Human Puppet naturally knew because Bai Yi was controlling him. Bai Yi had asked the Human Puppet to set off from Qinghe County. How could he not know the way back?
“Let’s go.”
The Human Puppet looked at the fierce battle in the sky and said these two words in a low voice.
Then, the Human Puppet, the Princess of the Great Yan Dynasty, and the four Foundation Establishment immortal cultivators from the Provincial Capital quickly left together.
High in the sky...
With his Divine Sense, the old man saw that everyone had already retreated, and he finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart.
He was worried that the Princess would act on impulse. After all, she was still very young.
At least, they had a chance to survive.
“Evil creature! Today, I, Xie Yingtian, will use the fifth level of the Golden Core stage to fight against you, who is in the tenth level of the Golden Core stage!”
“Great Yan, Ten-thousand Years of National Fortune! I carry its legacy. Help me kill the enemy!”
Angry shouts resounded through the sky, and the aura of the black-clothed old man rose steadily. The spirit energy on his body suddenly soared. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of a fiendish aura.
The aura stirred the remnant clouds! It shook all directions!
He waved his empty hand, and a huge halberd appeared in his hand. The surrounding scene was constantly distorted. That fiendish aura was not the fiendish aura of a demon cultivator. It was more like the fiendish aura when two armies faced off against each other!
“Die!!”
The huge halberd swept across the fierce aura of the demonic beast. The halberd’s blade cut through the sky and went straight for the demonic beast’s neck.
Unfortunately...
The gap between the cultivation levels of the two sides was really too big.
The demonic beast that the black-clothed old man was facing was a tenth level Golden Core stage great demon. It was a strange bird that was extremely similar to a hairless pterosaur.
Facing the incoming attack, it actually easily dodged it. Its huge wings spread out from left and right, covering the sky.
A pair of scarlet vertical pupils stared at the black-clothed old man.
The wings pounced down.
...
On the other side.
When Bai Yi controlled the Human Puppet to fly through the air, he took some time to glance back at the battle behind him. With a glance, he could see that the black-clothed old man was at a disadvantage. That great demon had always held the initiative.
For some reason, the black-clothed old man’s strength had soared by a large margin, as if he had used some secret technique.
It was because of this that he was able to face a great demon at the tenth level of the Golden Core stage with the cultivation level of the fifth level of the Golden Core stage.
Bai Yi could see the aura of the black-clothed old man, which carried a hint of the fate of the nation. He was forcefully using the fate of the nation to increase his own combat strength?
Only the Immortal cultivators of the Imperial Court could use such a special method, right?
However...
Using one’s body to withstand the erosion of the fate of the nation...
He was afraid that the old man would not be able to hold on for long!
Bai Yi knew that the black-clothed old man was already risking his life. The other party knew that it was a sure-death situation, so he did not hesitate to use this secret technique with extremely great side effects.
At this time, even if the great demon turned its head and left, the black-clothed old man would not be able to live.
Borrowing the country’s fortune would bring about a huge backlash, which was not something he could withstand.
Bai Yi still quite admired this kind of person.
No matter what the purpose was, to be able to sacrifice a Golden Core and save a few Foundation Establishment cultivators.
In the cultivation world, it was indeed rare.
After all...
With his Golden Core stage strength, even if he gave up on this Princess, it would not be a big deal.
At most, he could find a place to hide. In this vast world, would the Imperial Court be able to find him?
At most, he could go far away to another country.
“Although it’s still impossible to be that great demon’s match, it can definitely delay for a period of time. Moreover, the big battle between two Golden Core, one of which is a Golden Core demonic besat, will definitely attract the attention of the Spirit Sword Sect. The Spirit Sword Sect’s experts will probably come over very soon,” Bai Yi muttered to himself.
