Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 134 One Battle Against Fifteen

Qiu Ci never expected that her long-standing suspicions about the Refining God Sect, her suspicions about their purpose in bringing cultivators here, would actually be just a means to possess their bodies.

Fortunately, she had used the mind-stabilizing talisman beforehand, so she was not affected by the possession formation. She even had the energy to observe the formation under her feet and quickly found the location of the formation's core. She quickly formed hand seals, took two steps forward, and struck straight towards the core.

The next moment, a loud bang was heard.

The entire magic array exploded instantly, and the primordial spirits that were about to be pulled out of everyone's bodies returned to them.

"run!"

Qiu Ci gave a reminder, grabbed Qu Tengfei beside her, and turned to fly back the way they came. The other cultivators immediately reacted and mobilized their spiritual power to turn and flee.

"Hmph! Trying to leave!" A cold snort came from behind, and the next moment a blue light of a barrier rose from the cave entrance, completely blocking the only way out.

At the same time, an even more terrifying pressure swept over everyone. As heavy as Mount Tai pressing down, the cultivators all summoned their magical treasures and artifacts, forming hand seals and casting spells to support the barrier in an attempt to block it, but found it to be of no use.

That was the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage. The difference in cultivation level was too great, and they couldn't stop it at all. Under such pressure, some could barely stand up, while many more were directly vomited blood and were suppressed to the ground.

Qiu Ci also felt the heavy pressure, but fortunately her body had already undergone genetic modification, so it had no effect on her. However, Qu Tengfei beside her was a different story; he was vomiting blood in a gushing manner.

She could only use a hand seal to relieve most of his oppressive aura, then she took out a handful of magic talismans and threw them towards the bamboo curtains behind her.

The next moment, a loud rumbling sound was heard.

The magical runes exploded one after another, carrying a terrifying impact as they headed straight for the Refining God Sect members, while also interrupting the overwhelming pressure.

"Hmm? You do have some skill." The aged voice in the air paused, clearly not taking these talismans seriously.

Sure enough, the next moment, a flash of white light appeared, and a fire dragon suddenly shot out from behind the curtain, carrying flames that seemed capable of burning everything. It circled the entire stone chamber again and again, enveloping all the aftershocks of the explosion within it.

"Since we're going to die anyway, let's fight them!" The cultivators realized that their way out was blocked and immediately summoned their weapons and charged towards the other side.

"No..." Qiu Ci tried to stop her, but it was too late.

"Hmph! Overestimating yourselves." Another voice rang out at the same time, and the pressure of the Integration Stage appeared again. What followed was a rain of swords that fell like slicing melons and vegetables, piercing their limbs and pinning all the charging cultivators to the ground. In front of the Integration Stage, Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators were as fragile as children.

As the rain of swords was about to come toward her, and the fire dragon in the air also changed direction, Qiu Ci made her hand seals even faster. Finally, layer upon layer of magic arrays appeared around her. With a few clangs, all the spirit swords were blocked outside. Even the fierce fire dragon seemed to have encountered its natural enemy and was instantly extinguished.

"You actually managed to break my spell! What kind of formation is this? Wait, this aura..." The aged voice hesitated for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "You're at the Nascent Soul stage!"

Not only the old voice, but also the dozen or so people inside the bamboo curtain opposite them, all became excited as if they had encountered some great surprise.

"Hahaha... I didn't expect there to be such an unexpected surprise."

"How many years has it been since we've seen a body in the Nascent Soul stage?"

"Good, good, good. Now our ancestor can walk again. The mere Zhao family is nothing but a piece of our Refining God Sect's pouch." "Quickly, capture her at once, but don't harm her."

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen magical attacks came toward Qiu Ci.

She suddenly felt an urge to curse. "Damn, is this really necessary? Fifteen against one!" she thought to herself, but her hands didn't falter. She was almost creating afterimages as she formed magic arrays one after another in front of her, with each layer containing numerous magic talismans.

In an instant, a dazzling array of spells appeared in the stone chamber, including wind, fire, lightning, earthen walls, and spirit swords, which were thrown straight at the opponent's attack. The entire stone chamber was filled with rumbling sounds and flashes of various spells.

However, Qiu Ci was only at the Nascent Soul stage, two major realms below his opponent. No matter how many or how exquisite his techniques were, he couldn't match his opponent's strength, especially considering that it was a fifteen-on-one situation.

Sure enough, less than a quarter of an hour later, she felt a sharp pain in her chest, followed by a metallic taste, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Fellow Daoist Chu!" Qu Tengfei, who had been protected within the magic array, glanced at her, his expression darkening, and despair appearing on his face as he gritted his teeth and said, "It's my fault for dragging you into this!"

After saying that, he turned around and stared intently at the figures behind the bamboo curtains. He stood up despite the oppressive aura that seemed to crush him, and at the same time, his spiritual energy surged, with his dantian emitting a dazzling white light. Suddenly, he reached out and pushed her back, shouting, "Go! Every one of you who can escape is one more!" He then tried to rush out of the magic array.

not good.

He's trying to self-destruct his golden core!
Qiu Ci was startled. Seeing that the man was about to walk out, she raised her hand and slapped him across the face. The sound of the slap rang out, physically interrupting Qu Tengfei's spellcasting.

"You're not dead yet, why are you suddenly trying to look cool?" Besides, the roads are all blocked, where can she run to?

"I..." Qu Tengfei covered his reddened face, looking completely bewildered. Which side are you on?

Qiu Ci ignored him and, after estimating the time, thought, "Damn it, I'll go for it!"
As the magic array crumbled layer by layer and was about to collapse completely, she did not hesitate any longer and took out the last sword talisman and threw it at the other side.

Suddenly, a tremendous sword aura erupted, and the sound of swords echoed throughout the entire stone chamber.

A white rainbow shot out from the sword talisman, carrying an aura that seemed capable of cutting through everything, and slashed towards the fifteen Nascent Soul elders. The fierce sword aura even distorted space for a moment.

"What is that?!" the old voice exclaimed in surprise, clearly panicked.

"It's the sword intent of the Mahayana stage!"

"Quick! Block her!"

"what!!"

With the sword talisman of the Sword Pavilion Master's full-force strike, even those at the Integration Stage could not easily block it. With just one strike, the stone chamber and the entire stone mountain were cleaved in two. The mountain collapsed with a roar, countless rubble rolled down, raising a cloud of dust. The originally enclosed space was completely flipped open, and dazzling sunlight shone down, illuminating the figures behind the bamboo curtains.

At just one glance, Qiu Ci and Qu Tengfei felt a chill run down their spines.

"What...what are they?!"
