The appearing ghost horde had quite a large number, requiring the entire Eternal Sect to work together wholeheartedly to eliminate them.
Jun Changxiao didn’t make a move.
In his view, since the quest required full sect participation, he should let everyone contribute their share of strength.
It wasn’t that he worried they couldn’t meet the quest requirements, but rather that he worried disciples who didn’t participate wouldn’t be able to obtain rewards after completing the quest.
Since they came to Despair Abyss, since there was a legendary quest, they had to let everyone benefit!
“Kill!”
Zhong Yi rode his horse and brandished his blade, leading the charge.
As the vanguard regiment’s commander, in this type of war scene, he absolutely led from the front!
“Swoosh!”
The long blade cut through the desolate void, its blade energy like a rainbow piercing the sun, directly annihilating dozens of ghosts ahead.
“Woo woo woo!”
Ghostly wailing sounds rang out as ghosts on both sides ferociously pounced.
Zhong Yi didn’t dodge, charging forward with his blade, because he knew fellow disciples would definitely support him from behind.
Sure enough, when flanked from left and right, Li Shangtian leaped forward, raised his sniper rifle and rested it on his left arm, and without even aiming, pulled the trigger repeatedly.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Bullets shot out, flying past Zhong Yi’s shoulders and accurately hitting ghost foreheads, pulverizing them into powder.
“How’s my accuracy!”
Li Shangtian was a bit smug.
In the past on Xingyun Continent, this guy often shot his own people. Now with a more stable mindset and stronger shooting skills, fellow disciples could absolutely safely entrust their backs to him.
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
Just then, over a dozen seemingly real yet illusory ghosts appeared from nearby, pressing down with strange energy gathered in their hands without a word.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
However, before they could touch Li Shangtian, they shattered into nothingness on the spot.
Du She Yang withdrew his Overlord Spear, his face stern. “How many times have I told you—during operations, you cannot have any distraction!”
Years ago when Drizzle Hall was first established, he was appointed as an instructor, training the first batch of members which included Li Shangtian. He could be said to have watched the other grow step by step, their relationship both teacher and friend.
He recalled.
Back when they went to eliminate Black Eagle Hall, Li Shangtian followed fellow disciples into battle, not only performing extremely poorly but nearly causing Du She to kick the bucket.
After experiencing that incident, his mindset changed, and he began working hard to overcome his shortcomings and conquer his inner fears, ultimately becoming an excellent Drizzle Hall member and… photography enthusiast.
“Swoosh—” Suddenly, Li Shangtian sidestepped, quickly raised his rifle and fired, directly penetrating two charging ghosts. He grinned and said, “Brother She, you got distracted too.”
“…”
Du She gave him a look, then charged forward with his Overlord Spear.
Li Shangtian quickly reloaded, following close behind. While moving, he frequently fired, picking off distant ghosts one by one.
This kind of scene of using hot weapons for long-range kills really had no aesthetic appeal, so the camera shifted away, locking onto female disciple Ling Yuanxue.
Having joined Eternal Sect for decades, her appearance still hadn’t changed much from when she was a young girl, even giving off a delicate and easily overwhelmed feeling.
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
Ling Yuanxue charged very fast following her fellow disciples and was instantly surrounded by dozens of ghosts.
This kind of delicate woman trapped among enemy forces would definitely cause fellow disciples to worry, but the reality was everyone was busy with their own battles, killing their own targets. Even if they saw her, they didn’t take it to heart.
“Woo woo woo!”
Dozens of ghosts let out strange cries, pouncing to kill together.
Seeing this, Ling Yuanxue closed her eyes. True Spirit power gathered in her hands and legs, instantly striking at her surroundings with lightning speed. When she opened her eyes, all the attacking monsters had shattered into nothingness.
Fast, ruthless, accurate.
Perfectly executed!
“Amazing, Junior Sister!”
Li Shangtian passed by from the side, raising his thumb.
Ling Yuanxue, who had just been decisive in battle, immediately blushed and even shyly covered her face.
This was a very easily embarrassed, shy woman. During training in Death Valley, she had punched a wolf beast to death in fear and panic, causing a change in her mindset.
In short.
Though she normally appeared gentle, weak, and cute, once she entered combat mode she became extremely ruthless.
Li Shangtian and Ling Yuanxue were both representatives of quasi-core disciples. Describing the two of them was equivalent to describing all of them. Next, the camera shifted to the core disciples. As the sect’s backbone, their combat was even more powerful!
Ice-type control mid-laner Lu Qianqian, needless to say, used one move of Absolute Zero to freeze a large batch of ghosts, turning them into lifelike ice sculptures.
“Clang!”
Draw sword!
“Clang!”
Sheath sword!
“Clang!”
Draw and sheath, draw and sheath!
Under Zhou Hong’s frequent and extreme operations, thousands of frozen ghosts were all dismembered!
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
However, in return, he was targeted by even more ghosts. They charged with fangs and claws bared, strange energy howling forth.
“Boom boom boom boom!”
Collision sounds rose and fell, but Zhou Hong took no damage, because a flowing light shield had long since risen before him, blocking all strange forces outside.
“Swoosh—”
At the same time, Ye Xingchen transformed into flowing light and charged forward. The ghosts surrounding and bombarding the shield instantly shattered into nothingness.
“Crack crack!”
Xiao Zuiji ran wildly from the starry sky, retrieved the flowing light shield, and gradually gathered mechanical-feeling dual blades in his left and right hands, then charged toward the densest ghost area.
Offense in front, defense behind.
One in front, one behind, instantly charging into the enemy horde!
“Boom boom boom!”
“Boom boom boom!”
The two with balanced offense and defense were like sharp blades, fiercely piercing through the enemy’s defensive line, and in mutual coordination, staged a textbook-level example of cooperative combat.
A look of gratification appeared on Jun Changxiao’s face.
True, the core disciples’ individual strength was all very formidable, but he was more optimistic about the Night Snack combination with their perfect coordination, because their relationship had already transcended fellow disciple friendship and risen to a higher level.
Right now, even if ten Heaven’s Mystery Realm cultivators came, they wouldn’t be enough for these two to kill.
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
Just then, the distant space suddenly trembled, and ten ghosts with even more massive bodies appeared. From the aura erupting from them, they had clearly already reached Heaven’s Mystery Realm level!
“Hahahaha!”
The system couldn’t help but laugh loudly. “Think of something and it comes!”
“…” Jun Changxiao helplessly shook his head, but quickly smiled and said, “They’re just experience babies.”
Indeed.
After the Night Snack combination saw stronger ghosts appear, they immediately killed their way out from the enemy forces, flanking from left and right respectively, fully erupting True Spirit power to engage in fierce battle.
“Boom boom boom!”
Advancing on all fronts, blooming everywhere!
In a short time, the ten Heaven’s Mystery Realm level ghosts that had just appeared died at the hands of Ye Xingchen and Xiao Zuiji. The two looked at each other, smiles rising at the corners of their mouths.
This scene was discovered by Li Shangtian, who decisively captured it with his camera.
…
Eternal Sect was too powerful.
Even though ghosts endlessly emerged from the void, they still couldn’t match them.
Ten minutes later, each high-ranking member and disciple blocked a rift, eliminating one as soon as it appeared—perfectly waiting by a stump for rabbits.
Jian Guixu and Gu Tianxing shook their heads.
The two brothers were quite familiar with Eternal Sect’s strength and had long been able to face it calmly.
“Sigh.”
Jun Changxiao shook his head and said, “If this is all they’ve got, the treasure will be in Eternal Sect’s pocket.”
“…”
The system speechlessly said, “He’s truly insufferable!”
“Buzz buzz!”
Right at that moment, the entire starry sky area suddenly trembled violently, and the smug Jun Changxiao was instantly teleported into a small space.
The Eternal Sect high-ranking members and disciples were either individually or in pairs teleported to different areas, but only Jian Guixu and Gu Tianxing seemed abandoned, standing there dumbfounded.
“Where is everyone?”
“What’s going on!”
