With some manuscripts still in stock, starting today, I will be updating five chapters daily, continuing until the third day of the Lunar New Year. After the third day, I won't be able to do burst updates!
Let's put it this way: although He Pingsheng is only at the Qi Refining Stage Seventh Layer, the Spiritual Qi reserves in each of his Dantians are definitely no less than that of the Qi Refinement Stage Eleventh Level, or even the Qi Refining Stage Twelfth Level.
Yet, he possesses a full five such Dantians.
If we're talking about total Spiritual Qi reserves, he truly far surpasses other Qi Refining Stage Disciples.
"Junior Sister, don't panic!" the Qi Refining Stage Tenth Level Disciple holding the iron rod said, "I'll go over and wear him down first. What if the Spiritual Qi in his Dantian is abundant?
Can it be more than the four of us combined?"
With that, the Disciple, without waiting for Linglong's consent, charged forward with his iron rod.
When the distance closed to within one zhang, his strength suddenly erupted, and the massive iron rod smashed down on He Pingsheng's head.
Bang…
This immense force landed on the earthy-yellow light membrane surrounding He Pingsheng.
The light on the membrane dimmed once again.
However, this Time, He Pingsheng did not continuously output Earth Attribute magical power for defense. Instead, with a shift of his Divine Thought, three fire spiritual power Crows materialized.
The moment the three fire spiritual power Crows materialized, they crashed towards the Junior Apprentice Brother holding the iron rod.
And they came from three directions.
Because the distance was too close, the Time was very short.
The Junior Apprentice Brother had no space or Time for any defense whatsoever.
He could only step back and strike the fire spiritual power Crow in front of him with the rod in his hand.
This one strike hit two, not only striking the fire spiritual power Crow in front but also knocking down a fire spiritual power Crow beside it.
But there was still a third one.
After the two fire spiritual power Crows fell to the ground, the third one landed squarely on the Junior Apprentice Brother.
Bang…
The dense, scorching fire spiritual power immediately exploded.
The Disciple was instantly blown to death.
Hiss, hiss, hiss…
The other three were instantly shocked.
He Pingsheng had just sent out three fire spiritual power Crows. Could one be enough to kill a Qi Refining Stage Tenth Level Cultivator?
"Go…" He Pingsheng didn't hesitate, instantly conjuring three more fire spiritual power Crows. Guided by his Divine Thought, these three fire spiritual power Crows attacked another Junior Apprentice Brother and Linglong respectively.
One for the Junior Apprentice Brother, and two for Linglong.
As for Luoyu, He Pingsheng did not attack her first.
Because he still had a good impression of this woman.
When he was a Utility Disciple, Linglong wanted to kill him, but it was this woman named Luoyu who stepped forward to stop her and later gave him two Gold Bone Pills.
Because of this, He Pingsheng did not launch an attack on her.
"Damn it…" Linglong cried out, then calmly brought out a round, silvery small shield.
The small shield expanded with Spiritual Qi, transforming into a zhang-sized barrier in front of Linglong.
The first fire spiritual power Crow charged over and crashed into the small shield.
The light on the small shield immediately dimmed a few points, but the next moment, Linglong's internal magical power was supplied again, and the small shield brightened up once more.
Linglong held the small shield and turned it, blocking He Pingsheng's second fire spiritual power Crow.
Of course, during this Time, the Junior Apprentice Brother also brought out a defensive Treasure Artifact, blocking the other fire spiritual power Crow.
"Everyone attack together and seize the initiative!"
Linglong shouted loudly.
Then her Flying Sword was brought out again, and with a flash of sword light, it slashed towards He Pingsheng.
At the same Time, Luoyu and the Junior Apprentice Brother also attacked.
Three people, three Flying Swords.
Three sword lights.
He Pingsheng naturally dared not be negligent.
He first sent out three fire spiritual power Crows with fire spiritual power, charging towards the Junior Apprentice Brother.
Then his Earth spiritual power was operated to its extreme.
Earth Armor Technique was maximized.
Puff…
The Junior Apprentice Brother's sword light was easily dispelled by He Pingsheng.
Finally, the sword lights of Linglong and Luoyu landed on the light membrane formed by the Earth Armor Technique.
The light membrane could not withstand the simultaneous attacks of the two, and it burst with a 'puff' sound.
But the attacks of these two were indeed withstood.
Buzz, buzz, buzz…
The next moment, an even more dazzling shield appeared around He Pingsheng's body.
Spell: Vajra Shield.
This is a Golden Attribute defensive Spell.
"Continue, I don't believe it!" Linglong said, "He can last two more rounds at most, then he will definitely be exhausted!"
The remaining three people continuously attacked He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng, however, responded calmly.
He didn't even activate the Talisman, Stubborn Stone Talisman. Just the two Spells, Vajra Shield and Earth Armor Technique, were enough to withstand the trio's continuous onslaught.
And by seizing opportunities during defense, He Pingsheng even counter-killed the Junior Apprentice Brother.
Four people surrounded He Pingsheng.
However, He Pingsheng was like a porcupine, impossible to bite into, and he even counter-killed two of them.
Linglong and Luoyu became more and more alarmed as they fought.
"Senior Sister Luoyu… you're not usually like this!"
"You definitely didn't use your full strength!"
"Damn it…"
"What are you going to do?"
After a long, drawn-out battle, Linglong was somewhat on the verge of collapse. She shouted at her Senior Sister next to her.
Moreover, at this Time, the Spiritual Qi in her body was almost depleted.
"No…" Luoyu said with an anxious expression, "I used all my strength… it's just that his defense is really a bit tricky!"
Buzz, buzz, buzz…
Another Earth Armor Technique appeared outside He Pingsheng's body.
Taking advantage of the defensive moment, he waved his hand and took out a gourd from his Storage Pouch.
The Time gourd opened, and inside, it was full of Time holy liquid.
He Pingsheng scooped a drop into his mouth, then put the gourd away.
This mere drop of holy liquid instantly filled He Pingsheng's nearly depleted fire spiritual power, Earth Attribute, and Golden Attribute Dantians.
It was just that Heaven-Defying.
"Junior Sister, if I'm not mistaken, what Junior Brother He just swallowed should be some kind of Heaven And Earth Treasure that can instantly replenish Spiritual Qi!" Luoyu said anxiously, "Let's retreat quickly, we can't win!"
Originally, the two of them had planned to exhaust He Pingsheng.
But seeing this scene now, they could no longer remain calm.
"Alright…" Linglong said, "Senior Sister, you hold him off for a few breaths, I'll activate the paper crane!"
Activating the paper crane would take about a few breaths of Time.
Linglong withdrew, leaving Luoyu to attack He Pingsheng with full force.
But how could He Pingsheng let her have her way?
"Gather…"
Bang…
The next moment, a Time figure, one zhang and two chi tall, landed beside Linglong.
Spell: Yellow Turban Warrior.
The Yellow Turban Warrior, under the control of He Pingsheng's Divine Thought, began to hack at Linglong.
The Yellow Turban Warrior would attack on its own, so He Pingsheng didn't have to worry too much.
However, while facing Luoyu, He Pingsheng noticed some clues.
Luoyu was at the Qi Refining Stage Twelfth Level cultivation.
But from the very beginning, her attacks were very soft and weak.
They looked grand and sweeping, but each move that landed didn't have much offensive power.
Others didn't know, but He Pingsheng knew that this woman in front of him was deliberately going easy.
Since the other party was deliberately going easy, He Pingsheng naturally wouldn't truly fight her, so when facing Luoyu, it was just a formality.
"Slash…"
A Flying Sword flew through the air, piercing into Linglong's lower abdomen with a 'chi' sound, then nailing her firmly to the ground.
