Chapter 403: What Is a Sect Member
Looking at the countless dark spirits and their fellow disciples, like wheat falling under the rapid operation of the six formations commanded by Jiang Yun, batches and batches fell down, and the eyes of Huo Duming’s three people were about to pop out of their sockets!
They naturally did not care about the lives of their fellow disciples.
Because these so-called fellow disciples were merely stepping stones on their path to success, if they died, they died.
What truly shocked them was the spiritual state displayed by these disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect under Jiang Yun’s leadership at this moment.
Although there was assistance from the formations, they could not fail to see that without Jiang Yun, the disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect, even if united, were just a heap of loose sand, unable to withstand a single blow.
However, with Jiang Yun’s involvement, the spiritual state of these disciples underwent a tremendous change.
Not only was everyone’s fighting spirit raised to the utmost, but more importantly, they showed trust in Jiang Yun!
When Jiang Yun gave orders, these disciples would immediately execute without hesitation.
To achieve this, it could only mean that they had truly entrusted their lives completely to Jiang Yun’s hands.
Indeed that is the case.
Even just a few hours ago, most of the disciples from the Seeking-Tao Sect did not trust Jiang Yun this much.
They only followed Jiang Yun because they didn’t have a better choice.
However, when Jiang Yun used Taoist magic to attract a large number of evil spirits for them, their attitudes gradually changed.
Apart from their own masters and seniors, they had never been treated so well before.
Just as Huo Duming and the others thought, even though everyone who entered Mirage was talented, some of them were humble.
True geniuses are always few, and those disciples were just supporting characters to the real geniuses, stepping stones to their success.
However, with Jiang Yun, instead of using them, he sincerely helped them and made efforts to protect their lives.
What does it mean to be fellow disciples?
Only those who can trust someone with their life completely are truly considered allies!
"Stop standing around, everyone, attack!"
Gui Li was the first to snap out of it, and with a loud shout, the thirty or so cultivators behind them immediately turned into streaks of light, charging towards the battlefield, heading for Jiang Yun and the others.
Even though the Seeking-Tao Sect was displaying strength far beyond their actual cultivation level due to the formation, in the eyes of these cultivators from other realms, it was not that impressive.
Because even including Jiang Yun, most members of the Seeking-Tao Sect were only at the Blessed Land Realm.
While there were eight cultivators from other realms, Jiang Yun had intentionally spread them out among six different formations.
The vast power gap between different realms couldn’t be bridged just by relying on formations!
However, their main concern right now was that they couldn’t get close to Jiang Yun at all.
Among the surviving cultivators from the three major forces in the world, especially with the vast number of evil spirits surrounding Jiang Yun and the others from all directions, it felt like an unbreakable protection barrier.
To get closer, we must first kill these evil spirits and cultivators.
Killing evil spirits may not bother the cultivators of Dongtian, but surely they cannot bear to kill their own sect members.
So for now, they could only urge their fellow sect members to retreat from the encirclement quickly, while attacking the evil spirits.
Anyway, killing the evil spirits and obtaining the life-affirming object would bring great benefits to them!
And so, a tremendous battle unfolded completely in this unknown world.
Huo Duming and the other two did not join the battle, but stayed outside the battlefield, watching the stalemate with furrowed brows.
Initially, they thought that with their combined forces, they could easily defeat not only the Seeking-Tao Sect, but all other sects without much effort.
However, they didn’t expect Jiang Yun to use the power of formations to turn the tide and persist.
Suddenly, a man from the Sea clan frowned and said, "Why do I have a feeling that Jiang Yun is intentionally delaying? Could it be that he still has some hidden cards?"
Huo Duming sneered and said, "Let him delay it, the longer it takes, the worse it is for him. Even the Grand Medicine Sect wouldn’t dare to engage in a prolonged battle."
That is indeed the truth.
No sect would want to be stuck in a prolonged battle with their enemies.
Especially in this world where spirit energy is decreasing, and one can only rely on pills and spiritual stones to replenish it. But these are consumables, using them means less of them, and they will eventually run out.
Gui Li slightly closed his eyes and said, "The only thing they can wait for is reinforcements, and here, the only ones willing to help are the Grand Medicine Sect."
"Although the Grand Medicine Sect is indeed on their way, their speed is slow. I don’t believe Jiang Yun can delay them for that long!"
"Look, they are running low on spirit energy already!"
Sure enough, disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect have taken out pills or held onto spiritual stones to replenish their spirit energy.
In such intense fighting, spirit energy is being depleted rapidly.
"Hmph, everyone, try to protect yourselves. Let’s trap them first, so they have to fight the dark spirits and use up their spiritual stones!"
Gui Li looked around and gave another order.
Naturally, this order was also agreed upon by the cultivators of the three major forces.
In fact, ever since Jiang Yun led the first wave of attacks, they had all been trying to retreat as much as possible, keeping a distance from the disciples of the Seeking-Tao Sect and using a siege strategy instead.
In their opinion, even though each person in the Seeking-Tao Sect must have a lot of spiritual stones, they wouldn’t be able to hold out for long under such intense fighting.
And indeed, just half an hour later, the spiritual stones of the Seeking-Tao Sect members were almost used up.
But at that moment, Jiang Yun suddenly raised his hand-
Lots of spiritual stones, like raindrops, fell accurately into the hands of every disciple of the Seeking-Tao Sect!
And then, every once in a while, Jiang Yun would release a shower of spiritual stones to help his fellow sect members replenish their spiritual energy.
Even more so, the pills he gave away were all of extremely high quality, making Gui Li and the others wide-eyed in amazement.
In Mountain-Sea World, when it comes to being generous with pills, the Grand Medicine Sect is definitely the richest and most generous.
But seeing Jiang Yun give away large quantities of excellent pills without hesitation, even members of the Grand Medicine Sect would probably feel a sharp pang of jealousy.
They certainly wouldn’t know that, as a pharmacist, Jiang Yun has an abundance of pills.
Furthermore, with his expertise in pill-making, the pills he crafts from the same materials far surpass those made by other pharmacists.
Most importantly, he possesses a black stone.
All these pills have been stamped with a seal before being sent into the first layer of the Tao Sea, so he truly feels no attachment to them.
Although Huo Duming and the others were once again shocked by Jiang Yun’s actions, they were not panicked.
No matter how many pills Jiang Yun has, surely there will come a time when they run out, so they just have to wait.
With Jiang Yun generously providing the elixirs, the disciples of Seeking-Tao Sect persevered for almost two hours, as they watched their spirit energy on the brink of depletion once again.
"Buzzzz!"
A series of intense vibrations suddenly rang out.
In an instant, above the heads of all the Seeking-Tao Sect disciples led by Tang Yi —
One after another, spiritual energy vortexes began to appear in succession!
