Chapter 813: Chapter 438: Outstanding Battle Achievements Chapter 813: Chapter 438: Outstanding Battle Achievements Inside the Lin Family Clan Grounds.
Lin Shihua and over a dozen clan members stood in the plaza before the mountain gate, all of them with wide eyes fixed on the area outside the formation, witnessing every single movement on the entire battlefield.
Seeing Lin Tianming kill Xu Zhi in one stroke, his mutilated body fell from midair, not even giving him a chance to self-detonate his Golden Core.
In an instant, the previously arrogant and aggressive Xu Zhi was dead and couldn’t be deader.
At this moment, every clan member on the scene shifted from shock to a state of wild joy.
Especially Lin Shihua, his entire face went through dramatic changes, switching from anger to joy as Xu Zhi was killed.
Meanwhile, outside the clan grounds.
...
With Lin Tianming taking action, the Spirit Beasts like the Purple Gold Eagles also pursued the Qingyun Sect cultivators according to his instructions.
However, the strength of these beasts under his command was limited; the Purple Gold Eagles were only at the Second Order Middle Stage grade, whereas the Silver-Eyed Spirit Fox and the Bloodthirsty Jiao were among the top within Second Order Demonic Beasts.
But their numbers were too few, especially in the face of over a hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators of Qingyun Sect; they appeared quite thin.
After all, among the disciples of Qingyun Sect, there were quite a few in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, including some who were at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Realm.
While these individuals wouldn’t amount to much in front of Golden Core Cultivators, they were still considerably threatening against Second Order Demonic Beasts.
However, these few Spirit Beasts, following Lin Tianming’s instructions, merely kept harassing their opponents and didn’t engage in direct confrontation.
This strategy was also to delay the Qingyun Sect cultivators, to buy more time for Lin Tianming.
Otherwise, if the Purple Gold Eagles and other Spirit Beasts dove in alone like Lin Tianming, it would be no different from seeking death.
Under such circumstances, Lin Tianming was responsible for the pursuit, while the three Spirit Beasts, Purple Gold Eagle, Lin Shihua, and the others, were responsible for delaying, cooperating quite tacitly.
But even so, there were too many Qingyun Sect escapees, with over a hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators still alive.
Being all Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they scattered and fled at great speed, and even with Lin Tianming’s impressive strength and speed, it was difficult to cover every escapee.
Just then, Lin Shihua inside the clan grounds regained his composure, immediately leading his clan members out of the Protective Clan Formation.
Accompanying them was the Soul-eating Spider left by the Patriarch of the Lin Family.
This Spirit Beast hadn’t made a public appearance for a long time, but now when it did come out, its body was a whole size larger, and its aura was incredibly powerful.
Over the years of the Lin Family’s rapid development, a large number of treasures had been collected, which finally provided a decent foundation of resources to support the growth of the Soul-eating Spider.
Now, it seemed that after these years of abundant offerings of Spiritual Objects, the Soul-eating Spider had advanced further, reaching the limits of a Second Order Demon Beast.
It even seemed not too far from a true Third Order Demon Beast.
With the Soul-eating Spider as well as Lin Shihua, Lin Xingzhi, and others joining, they immediately cooperated to pick a direction to pursue the fleeing Qingyun Sect cultivators.
Lin Tianming chose another direction, coordinating with the Purple Gold Eagle, Lin Shihua, and these clan members to chase down the enemy.
Under his unrelenting attacks, the sky was continuously filled with screams.
Behind each scream, lay the fall of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Such slaughtering continued, the scene extremely brutal and bloody, each person acting out of hatred and showing no mercy with their attacks.
After half an hour.
Lin Tianming and the clan members regrouped, all gathering around Lin Shikang and Ye Pinghai.
At this time, Lin Tianming looked at the panting crowd, each one looking significantly drained.
It wasn’t surprising to think about it; over a dozen Qi Stage Clan Members chasing after hundreds of Qingyun Sect Cultivators, the pressure must not have been small, and such large consumption was not strange.
But all had fortunately returned safely without casualties, which was already a stroke of great luck.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming’s face finally showed a thick smile.
Seeing this, the other clan members also revealed a joyous expression; everyone’s mood was very good.
Immediately after, Lin Tianming looked over at Lin Shikang’s side and noticed that both Ye Pinghai and Hu Yuan were seriously injured, but both were quite conscious and sitting cross-legged on the ground, cultivating to heal.
Lin Shikang also suffered significant injuries, but not too severe; with only a month or so of proper rest and cultivation, he could easily recover to his peak.
Ye Pinghai and Hu Yuan, however, were gravely injured, especially Hu Yuan who had hastily exited seclusion to respond to the battle, not at his peak state, and now severely wounded by Xu Zhi, even facing the risk of falling in realm.
Fortunately, Lin Tianming arrived in time afterward, significantly reducing the pressure on them.
Otherwise, if Hu Yuan continued to fight forcefully, even if he managed to save his life, he would inevitably fall to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
As for Ye Pinghai, having broken through to the Golden Core Stage earlier, his cultivation strength was somewhat stronger than Hu Yuan’s.
Although he was also gravely injured, with some time spent calmly cultivating, he could recover to his peak state.
And now, with Xu Zhi killed by Lin Tianming, the crisis had temporarily lifted, and this great battle had finally passed.
Realizing this, Lin Tianming breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
Following that, he looked at Lin Shikang and the others, and then asked with concern, “Third Grandfather, how are your injuries? Is it serious?”
Hearing this, Lin Shikang opened his eyes, ending his brief cultivation period.
Then, he nodded and replied, “It’s nothing serious, with a bit of cultivation, I’ll be back to peak condition soon!”
