However, with their strength, it would be very difficult for them to defeat these two demons one-on-one.
Now that we've chosen to break through, we must go all out and take them all down.
“The few of us will deal with the one on the left. The demons on the left should be more afraid of being trapped by the formation. Once we can trap him, the rest will be much easier.”
"Just trapping them won't do; we have to kill them."
Otherwise, with so many people, the chances of survival are too small.
Xuan Yezi shook his head.
If they weren't protected, these weaker fellow disciples wouldn't need to go to such great lengths.
We've come this far; we can't just abandon everyone at this crucial juncture.
"Shouldn't we try to stall them?"
"To buy as much time as possible for the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages?"
"What's the difference between that and sending them to their deaths?"
"The only way to save most of the people is to kill these two demons, then we can split into zero, each of us taking a group of people, and escape quickly."
How far can it run, and how many people can it run against?
"It's all up to fate."
Xuan Daozi spoke up, explaining that their only advantage now, besides their numbers, was that these two demons shouldn't be able to see through their true strength.
The power that these Golden Core cultivators can unleash in a short period of time can definitely far exceed that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.
After all, they are the most core forces within the Taoist sect.
"Then it's settled."
Give it your all!
Before the operation began, Su Chen informed everyone of the potential weaknesses of the two demon races.
To convince his fellow disciples of his story, Su Chen directly invoked the name of Xuan Mingzi.
With their intentions aligned with the enemy's, the two demon races were already at a disadvantage in the very first moment of battle.
Furthermore, Su Chen pointed out their weaknesses in advance, and the two sides broke through them in a short period of time.
"Hurry up!"
Go quickly! "
The Golden Core cultivators kept urging them on, afraid that these weaker individuals would be too slow and drag everyone down with them.
What will happen to my master?
Su Chen glanced back and saw that Xuan Mingzi was still in the midst of battle and had not yet completely broken free from the demon race.
Mind your own business!
He'll be alright!
Under the pressure of the crowd, Su Chen could only protect a group of people and quickly leave the mountain gate.
……
[The moment you killed the demons and broke through the encirclement, many demons had already noticed the problem and were giving chase in your direction.]
To ensure the survival of as many people as possible, your only option is to break up into smaller groups and break out in different directions.
[You led those weaker fellow disciples and ran away to who knows how far, but the demon race behind you could never shake them off.]
You have no choice but to stop and hold them off, buying more time for your fellow disciples.
You fought and retreated, defeating the demons who tried to surround and kill you time and time again.
You don't know how long you fought; you only know that just before you collapsed from exhaustion, the demons seemed to receive some signal and swiftly abandoned you.
When you opened your eyes again, more than a month had passed.
After extensive inquiries, you finally confirmed the fate of the Taoist sect.
[After this battle, the Daoist sect was effectively wiped out from all other sects.]
All those at the Nascent Soul stage perished. The only one at the Integration stage, after a long battle with the Nine-Tailed Fox, chose to perish together with it, severely injuring the Nine-Tailed Fox. The sect leader of the Daoist sect died on the spot.
As for those below the Nascent Soul stage, most of the Core Formation and Golden Core cultivators perished or were injured.
[The very few who managed to break through were hunted down by the demons several times. Those who, like you, were spared without suffering any damage to their core essence are not many.]
This event will shake all parties involved.
They had no idea that the demon realm would suddenly take action, and that its attack would utterly cripple the entire Daoist sect.
What terrified them even more was that if the exit from the demon realm could be located outside the gates of the Daoist sect, it meant it could also be located outside their sect.
The demon realm could threaten any of their sects at any time.
[But just as these sects realized what was happening and prepared to join forces to invade the demon realm and teach them a lesson.]
They suddenly discovered that the demon realm had vanished without a trace, leaving not a single trace.
You've been resting for a while.
Once you've fully recovered, you'll begin inquiring about the others who escaped with you.
But despite your inquiries, you still couldn't find any trace of them.
What you're more concerned about is Xuan Mingzi, who didn't manage to break through with them.
With the destruction of the Daoist sect, you have finally achieved what you always wanted: to walk outside the Daoist realm.
However, your current state of mind is far more complex than it was before.
You try to find everything, chasing after every whim and rumor.
No matter how hard you search, you still can't find that group of people from back then.
You have a premonition that they may have died on their way to break through the enemy lines, but you refuse to believe it.
The world remains chaotic.
As a Golden Core cultivator, ordinary demons pose no threat to you.
Although you haven't been consciously training your body, your strength is still slowly increasing.
You wandered aimlessly across the world, initially receiving offers of assistance from numerous sects.
Even after the Daoist sect was destroyed, the people and artifacts it left behind still have some use.
After your repeated rejections, coupled with your increasingly erratic behavior, the forces trying to recruit you are becoming increasingly scarce.
You don't care about these things; the only thing you care about is finding Xuanmingzi.
And so, you wandered for three whole years.
[Your entire appearance suggests almost no connection to Taoism. Aside from your tattered Taoist robe, which temporarily demonstrates your abilities, you seem to have virtually no connection to anything else.]
You yourself don't even know where you've wandered off to.
All you know is that the surrounding area is now deserted, and demons have multiplied dramatically.
After searching for several years, you know in your heart that the hope that Xuan Mingzi is still alive is extremely slim.
[Thus, your goal gradually shifted from searching for people you once knew to hunting down demons.]
Legends about you are gradually spreading throughout the martial arts world.
However, those rumors all sounded rather creepy.
After all, whenever you encounter demons, the methods you use are rarely any better.
[It's as if you're venting all the anger in your heart, constantly slaughtering those demons.]
This area is shrouded in demonic energy.
Having dealt with the demon race for several years, you know very well that there must be a powerful demon in this area.
Since we've met, it must be fate.
Between you and this great demon, it's either you or me who dies.
As usual, you slaughtered the weaker demons, then deliberately released a small portion to escape.
You, on the other hand, followed them at a distance, trying to find their lair.
[But in the heat of the chase, you didn't notice that at some point, you crossed a boundary.]
You keenly sense that the demonic energy around you has suddenly become much denser.
You didn't take it too seriously, just feeling that you had probably found their hideout.
When you finally saw that powerful demon, you were stunned.
What appeared before you was actually a nine-tailed white fox.
You can't even discern the opponent's specific level of cultivation; all you can sense is the immense pressure.
The other person was just lying there, and it was already making it hard for you to breathe.
As you gaze at the fox spirit, seemingly dozing, an idea arises in your mind.
【Your choice:】
1. Avenge Xuanmingzi. (Your reckless actions may directly lead to your death.)
2. Sneak away before the other person wakes up. (There is a chance you won't be able to escape.)
[3. Personal intervention, remaining attempts: three.]
【…】
"A nine-tailed fox?"
Aren't they the kings of the demon race?
"They're extremely rare. Could this one be the very one that attacked the Daoist sect back then?"
Su Chen frowned as he looked at the fox demon in the game.
The character's cultivation level was only at the Golden Core stage, while the one who attacked the Daoist sect was at the Integration stage, and not just any ordinary Integration stage.
