NOVPUBChapter 762: Chapter 413 Frustrated Song Hanchun_1 Chapter 762: Chapter 413 Frustrated Song Hanchun_1 Their actions clearly aimed to take advantage as the Golden Sword Sect disciples were consuming more energy.
After all, the cultivators of the Zhenyang Sect, with the help of the Third Order Defensive Array, were inevitably using less spiritual power than those of the Golden Sword Sect.
Although overall, they still did not have the upper hand.
But if they did not take this opportunity to weaken the enemy’s combat power, it would naturally be much harder to gain an advantage once they recovered.
And Chen Jingtian naturally understood this point, and specifically brought only Foundation Establishment cultivators into battle, making it more flexible to either retreat or attack.
On the contrary, if he brought Qi Refining cultivators into the fray, their lower cultivation and limited power meant the damage they could do to Golden Core cultivators was extremely limited.
Moreover, the movement of an army composed of thousands of cultivators would inevitably be too cumbersome.
...
Bringing Qi Refining cultivators against a stronger opponent would just be sending them to their deaths without serving much of a role, and they would only hold back the retreat.
Therefore, he only led Foundation Establishment cultivators into battle to harass and then retreat in time after gaining an advantage.
Although this was somewhat risky, those at a disadvantage like them could only rely on such opportunities to narrow the gap between them.
He firmly believed that after a few such occasions, the power of the Golden Sword Sect would inevitably decline.
With this ebbing and flowing, he would be able to regain some of the disparity between them, and come the decisive battle, he would also have a slight initiative.
Knowing this, Chen Jingtian acted with extreme caution, maintaining a safe distance and ferociously attacking the lower-ranking cultivators of the Golden Sword Sect.
Apart from him, Zhu Yun and Lan Yu both targeted the lower-ranking cultivators as well.
The Foundation Establishment cultivators who followed them did the same, all hiding under the protection of the trio while launching attacks from a distance, coordinating with some Second Order Attack Talismans, and fiercely bombarding the Golden Sword Sect cultivators in front of them.
At this time, among the slowly retreating Golden Sword Sect disciples, many Qi Refining cultivators moved too slowly and had not withdrawn very far when they were crazily attacked by Chen Jingtian who had come out in haste.
Perhaps not expecting Chen Jingtian to take the initiative to strike, the Golden Sword Sect’s formation was disorganized, and many lower-ranking cultivators lagged behind, directly exposing themselves to the gaze of Chen Jingtian and the others. 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘱𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
As Chen Jingtian and the others took their turns attacking, powerful surges swept through the area.
At this moment, a commotion spread through the ranks of the Golden Sword Sect cultivators, as a large number of lower-ranking cultivators were thrown into disarray, disrupting the originally orderly formation.
“Boom rumble…”
A series of explosive sounds erupted, and the sky was filled with massive orbs of light pouring down.
Looking over, several powerful sword qi streaked through the void, clearly the attacks of Golden Core cultivators.
These attacks were incredibly fast and carried awe-inspiring power; the Qi Refining cultivators couldn’t withstand such pressure, and appeared to lack even the strength to flee.
In an instant, a series of screams echoed continuously.
From a distance, Chen Jingtian eradicated close to a hundred cultivators with a single strike, including over a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators.
This action immediately incited the fury of Song Hanchun.
“Chen Jingtian, you old fool are courting death!”
No sooner had the words fallen did Song Hanchun twist his body, hastily crossing over the heads of the Golden Sword Sect disciples and shooting towards Chen Jingtian.
While still in midair, his Magical Treasure flashed brightly, and a barrage of attacks bore down on him.
Seeing this, Chen Jingtian did not dare to be careless, and immediately leaped up, evading Song Hanchun’s assault.
Before he could take a breath, Zhao Hongsheng also appeared silently on his left, forming a pincer attack with Song Hanchun and unleashing a torrent of attacks on him.
At that moment, Chen Jingtian’s brow furrowed tightly, his expression extremely grave.
Although both were at Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivation, he found Song Hanchun’s attacks manageable, even with some ease to spare.
But Zhao Hongsheng’s attacks were fast and fierce, the powerful waves threatening to cut him down on the spot.
Well aware of Zhao Hongsheng’s formidable strength, Chen Jingtian fought while retreating, not intending to clash head-on.
Realizing this, Chen Jingtian’s Magical Treasure frequently flashed light as he applied pressure on Zhao Hongsheng, while deftly moving and narrowly dodging through the barrage of attacks.
In the blink of an eye, the three were locked in combat; Chen Jingtian, relying on his nimble maneuvers and the aid of Third Order Talismans, managed to face two opponents at once.
Although he had not yet fallen into a disadvantage, that was also because Zhao Hongsheng and Song Hanchun, having expended much of their mana attacking the Defensive Array earlier, dared not fight too recklessly for fear that running out of mana might even lead to their potential downfall.
It was precisely because Chen Jingtian understood this that he dared to risky a confrontation with Zhao Hongsheng, whose cultivation and strength were higher.
However, such fighting could not be prolonged, as under the combined efforts of Zhao Hongsheng and Song Hanchun, his mana depletion rate was faster than theirs.
If this continued, perhaps in less than half an incense stick of time, his mana would be completely exhausted.
Therefore, he dared not drag it out too long and was fully bent on taking advantage and then leaving.
In such a situation, Chen Jingtian, while dodging attacks from Zhao Hongsheng and Song Hanchun, took advantage of the intermissions to frantically unleash a barrage of ordinary spells towards the lower-ranked Golden Sword Sect camp.
This move by him surprised and angered Song Hanchun, who also had to split his focus to fend off some of the ordinary attacks to prevent serious casualties among the lower-ranking disciples of the Golden Sword Sect.
