176: Early stage of continuous slashing

In the sky, with a thunderous boom, everyone looked over, only to see the highest-ranking Purple Mansion Cultivator.

Three Golden Corpse Generals appeared out of thin air, like golden, shimmering Buddha statues, and fiercely grabbed at the body of a Spirit Talisman Sect Purple Mansion Cultivator.

Countless spirit shields shattered, and the golden alms bowl Magic Treasure was also sent flying by the Golden Corpse, a terrifying sound reverberating through the heavens and earth.

In an instant, a Spirit Talisman Sect Purple Mansion Cultivator perished on the spot.

Even the corpse was taken away by the black-robed Cultivator. However, the three Golden Corpse Generals did not stop there and wanted to attack another Purple Mansion Cultivator of the Spirit Talisman Sect.

However, in the distance, countless Spirit Talismans unfolded like a scroll in the air, then formed a Minor Divine Ability that seemed to stretch from a within easy reach to the ends of the earth.

It enveloped the three Golden Corpses.

The faces of the three Golden Corpse Generals showed a distinctly human-like drastic change. The next moment, their claws felt as if they had grasped nothing, coming up empty.

And from behind, accompanied by an angry voice, a Daoist wearing a yellow robe flew over:

"Golden Corpse Daoist, you ambushed my Spirit Talisman Sect Disciple! I'll use your three Golden Fiend Corpse Generals and your head as a sacrifice!"

"Golden Light Daoist, your words are quite bold. Let's see if you can maintain that boldness once you become a Corpse!" Golden Corpse Daoist eerily extended his lips. The next moment, ripples appeared in front of him, and over a dozen black coffins flew out.

Each coffin was three to four zhang in size.

Golden Light Daoist was again greatly alarmed. A formidable spiritual power emanated from within the coffins. In front of him, another pictorial Spirit Talisman appeared, unfolding like an ink wash painting.

Surprisingly, the dozen black coffins revealed over a dozen ordinary third-rank blood corpses.

The next moment, the blood corpses suddenly expanded and began to self-detonate.

The terrifying force caused Golden Light Daoist to retreat involuntarily.

And with the self-detonation, the entire Devil Cultivator and Corpse Cultivator camp, as if by prior arrangement, simultaneously shook off their opponents and began to retreat.

"Quick, stop them!" Golden Light Daoist was furious. The Devil Sect actually attacked and then fled. If they lost one Purple Mansion Cultivator each time, while the enemy gained one Purple Mansion Corpse, it would be impossible to fight.

Among the Three Sects of Zhao Country, there were only ten Golden Core Immortal Masters. Aside from the four from Qingxuan Sect, the other two Sects each had three.

The main core strength still lay with the Purple Mansion Cultivators of their respective Sects.

The Purple Mansion Cultivators from the Spirit Talisman Sect who came to Tianhe City, considered as reinforcements from Purple Mansion Families, totaled only a dozen people. Now, with one killed, they were all exasperated.

At the Foundation Establishment battlefield a hundred meters in the air, all Cultivators also began to retreat.

The Foundation Establishment Corpse Cultivator fighting Lin Shiming had already brought out five complete blood corpses and one half-refined blood corpse, a total of five Foundation Establishment Early Stage forces, yet he had failed to defeat Lin Shiming. He felt a gloomy expression, seeing that he was about to win, yet now had to retreat.

"Keep your body well for me!" The Foundation Establishment Corpse Cultivator waved his sleeve, and the five blood corpses also retreated together.

However, what he didn't know was that at this moment, Lin Shiming's eyes shone brightly.

Then, a miniature drum appeared in his hand, and a drumstick struck it.

Waves of sound spread rapidly in all directions, and this time, they were all directed at the Corpse cultivators.

Although these Corpse cultivators had powerful Divine Sense, each controlled three or four blood corpses of the same rank, and their Divine Sense was already somewhat overburdened. Many Foundation Establishment Corpse cultivators covered their heads and cried out.

Each blood corpse also showed a clear pause.

Lin Shiming's body instantly moved like a ghost, and streaks of white Heavenly Silkworm Spider Silk flew towards the Corpse cultivators' heads.

The Heavenly Silkworm Spider Silk was originally colorless and odorless. Affected by the Spirit Shocking Drum, and coupled with Lin Shiming's Soul Splitting Blade.

In a flash, he killed three Foundation Establishment Early Stage Corpse cultivators, hooked their Storage Pouches, and Lin Shiming then turned to other retreating Cultivators.

He had almost fully planned for these Cultivators during the earlier fight, targeting only Corpse cultivators and Devil Cultivators with weak Divine Sense.

The drumstick of the Spirit Shocking Drum also startled many Cultivators, and they were greatly astonished by Lin Shiming's successive killing of three people. They were too far away to be affected by the Spirit Shocking Drum, but seeing this, they each put away their blood corpses, then kept their minds highly focused with tense expressions.

However, Lin Shiming's only response to them was a cold sneer, and rising Wood Vine Techniques.

One must know that this time he was going to obtain the grotto-heaven pearl, so how could he let the Corpse Refinement Sect and Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivators escape?

Purple Gold Vines suddenly sprouted from the ground, densely and precisely emerging from beneath the feet of the corresponding Cultivators.

That terrifying speed greatly alarmed the Cultivators on Zhao Country's side.

Not to mention the Devil Cultivators and Corpse cultivators. These Cultivators were more skilled in refining corpses, refining devils, and body techniques, while sword techniques were rarely learned. Many Cultivators were instantly bound by the Purple Gold Vines, most of whom were from the Corpse Refinement Sect. In contrast, the Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivators again took out some highly poisonous gourds and directly corroded the purple vines.

But even so, he still managed to bind about ten Cultivators. Lin Shiming waved his sleeve, and then countless Flying Swords flew out, forming the Tiangang Sword Formation, which slashed towards the Corpse Refinement Sect Cultivators.

The Tiangang Sword Formation did not require Formation activation; it was simply a combined sword Formation, which Lin Shiming had fully acquired as soon as he returned to Tianhe City.

Coupled with the Heavenly Silkworm Spider Silk, he again killed five Corpse Refinement Sect Cultivators.

For the remaining few bound Cultivators, countless Purple Gold Spirit Spears made of Purple Gold Vines shot out from beneath the ground, killing another five Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivators.

In an instant, ten people were killed. Lin Shiming at this moment was more demonic than a Devil Cultivator!

However, it wasn't over yet. Lin Shiming then took out the Demon Binding Pouch and released powerful winds into the air, preparing to capture three more people!

To make it twenty people, and these three were the Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivators with the gourd Magical Artifacts.

The three's faces turned pale with fright, and they cursed internally. Previously, Zhao Country's Cultivators had never seen a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator ambush Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivators.

Now, in their eyes, Lin Shiming was a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator who had hidden his cultivation, otherwise why would his true Qi reserves and Divine Sense strength be at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage?

Moreover, Lin Shiming was even more insidious, hiding for so long, and then striking at them, these Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivators, just as their Heavenly Demon Sect and Corpse Refinement Sect were retreating.

The strong winds from the Demon Binding Pouch were extremely fierce. At this moment, the Heavenly Demon Sect and Corpse Refinement Sect were also retreating, and the Purple Mansion Cultivators in the sky were fighting with real fury.

No matter how bad their faces looked, the three had no choice but for each to wield a Heavenly Demon Banner towards Lin Shiming, and countless Devil Heads began to charge towards the Demon Binding Pouch in a self-detonating manner.

However, the Demon Binding Pouch blocked them, but what greeted them was the circling of the Tiangang Sword Formation.

As a spiritual technique was cast, the one hundred and eight swords of the Tiangang Sword Formation formed a giant sword of light, slashing down towards the three Devil Cultivators.

While Lin Shiming was attacking, it finally attracted the attention of the Devil Cultivators at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage. Two Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivators at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage suddenly stopped, holding their demonic blades, and charged towards Lin Shiming. These two were clearly Body Cultivators, aiming to relieve the siege on the three Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivators.

However, the next moment, a fiery red monkey suddenly raised a Profound Spirit Mountain and fiercely smashed it towards them.

This time, the Profound Spirit Mountain was not only incredibly heavy but also stained with the Red-haired Demon Monkey's unique fire, burning extremely fiercely.

The two Late Foundation Establishment Stage Devil Cultivators couldn't help but dodge. However, with this dodge, Lin Shiming had already killed the three Foundation Establishment Early Stage Devil Cultivators on the spot.

The two still wanted to kill their way out, but they hadn't expected that Lin Shiming was completely unmoved, and his body suddenly retreated towards the city wall behind him.

"Shameless! A Late Foundation Establishment Stage killing Foundation Establishment Early Stage! I will definitely kill you in the next great battle!" The two Devil Cultivators were filled with secret hatred, but by this time, the Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators from Zhao Country's side had also arrived, so the two could only retreat into the demonic mist with resentment.
