Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1243 - 647 Concluding Part_2
Chapter 1243: Chapter 647 Concluding Part_2
Moreover, behind him were Lin Tianming and the figures of a few Liang Family Members, including Liang Shaoguang.
In such a situation, Liang Shaorong neither dared to pursue Hua Zhenxing nor dared to directly confront the attack of the Fourth Order Attack Talisman.
Consequently, after launching his attack, Liang Shaorong retreated explosively at the first opportunity.
While still in mid-air, Liang Shaorong waved his hand, and a gentle wave of energy repelled Liang Shaoguang.
Including Lin Tianming, they all sensed the energy fluctuations from Liang Shaorong’s palm, which had no intention of malice or assault.
Thus, standing behind Liang Shaorong, Lin Tianming quickly understood Liang Shaorong’s intentions after a moment’s thought.
Under such circumstances, Lin Tianming, who intuitively grasped the situation, retreated by borrowing the force, moving even faster than his normal escape speed by quite a bit.
In less than the time it took to take a breath, Lin Tianming and Liang Shaoguang were the first to retreat to the rearmost position, establishing a safe distance from the Sword Qi formed by the Fourth Order Talisman.
On the other side, Liang Shaorong, being too close to the Golden Sword Qi and having delayed for a moment while repelling Lin Tianming and Liang Shaoguang, faced greater difficulty in dodging the attack.
At this moment, Liang Shaorong was fully aware of his predicament and understood all too well the formidable power of the Fourth Order Attack Talisman.
However, even with this knowledge, as he saw the Golden Sword Qi approaching nearer, Liang Shaorong weighed his options and realized he could not evade it.
Therefore, Liang Shaorong made a decisive move. In the moment when the Sword Qi struck, he launched a full-powered counterattack in a rush.
"Boom..."
With a dull thunderous noise, Liang Shaorong’s strike collided head-on with the oncoming golden Sword Qi.
Immediately afterward, flames soared to the sky, with wild winds kicking up dust and stones, and a massive shockwave swept out in all directions.
By then, Lin Tianming had stabilized his figure and stopped in a relatively safe location.
Following his gaze, one could see in the midst of the sparks, Liang Shaorong’s face was pale as he was sent flying backward.
While still mid-air, Liang Shaorong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his complexion quickly grew more sallow.
The attack from Liang Shaorong and the Golden Sword Qi transformed by the Fourth Order Attack Talisman had clashed directly.
As expected, Liang Shaorong’s attack fell short.
After all, the power of the Fourth Order Attack Talisman by itself already exceeded the range of attacks by a Golden Core Cultivator.
Moreover, the attack from Liang Shaorong was hurried and prompted in a limited time, without the opportunity to build up properly or to deploy a more powerful assault.
Under these circumstances, at the moment of impact between the two attacks, the outcome was immediately decided.
Fortunately, Liang Shaorong’s cultivation realm was there and his combat experience was indeed rich, allowing him to choose the best offensive and defensive tactic in the shortest time.
In this exchange of offense and defense, Liang Shaorong exerted all his strength to dodge and avoid his vital parts.
Nevertheless, in the end, he still suffered injuries, which were not light.
However, when compared to Wu Chengfeng, Liang Shaorong’s situation was still slightly better, which could be considered a stroke of luck amid misfortune.
But no matter what, Hua Zhenxing had achieved his goal.
Now, they had established a sufficient safe distance, and the road they had come from was right behind them; they could retreat immediately once their forces gathered.
And this outcome was precisely the situation Hua Zhenxing wanted to witness.
At this moment, they were all prepared for retreat.
Especially since Liang Shaorong and Lin Tianming, along with other top combatants, had been tied down by the Fourth Order Talisman.
With a safe distance now established and the rest of the cultivators having also withdrawn from the battle group and eventually gathered together, they were ready.
The only regret was that three Early Stage Golden Core cultivators, already injured earlier, had their strength greatly diminished.
When it came time to concentrate and retreat, the cultivators from the Liang Family camp made frantic efforts to hinder their departure.
In their effort to break away from the battle group, they exposed many flaws.
As a result, three Golden Core cultivators perished here because their injuries caused them to retreat too slowly.
Such losses, yet again, added insult to injury for the camp of Hua Zhenxing and the other four major forces.
Fortunately, Hua Zhenxing and his party of more than twenty people had also gathered together and were rapidly retreating.
At the same time, a crowd from the Liang Family Camp also came together.
As they watched Hua Zhenxing and the others preparing to retreat, each of them hesitated, uncertain whether to continue the pursuit and thereby further enlarge their camp’s advantage.
Especially the Liang Family members, seeing Liang Shaorong severely wounded, each of them was angry, and their hearts were filled with anxiousness.
Among them, Liang Shaoguang glared at the retreating Hua Zhenxing and his party, the fury in his eyes undisguised.
Unfortunately, now that Liang Shaorong was injured, everyone else was also not in good shape. At the very least, the True Essence Mana of the majority was almost completely depleted.
Even, a number of them were all wounded, their strengths significantly reduced.
In such a state, and without Liang Shaorong’s presence to bolster their ranks, he really didn’t dare to continue the pursuit.
After all, Hua Zhenxing is a top-notch powerhouse, and his strength here is almost unrivaled by anyone.
Moreover, without an absolute advantage, they practically had no additional intelligence about the external situation.
If they were to strike rashly, it would be easy to fall into an enemy ambush, thus ruining the situation the Liang Family had turned around with great difficulty.
And if any unforeseen event occurred, and they were caught off guard, it could well cost them dearly.
After all, the ancient saying always goes ’Do not chase a desperate foe,’ how could he not understand this principle?
Furthermore, he understood that the Liang Family needed time the most right now.
As long as the clan members attempting to reach the Nascent Soul Stage succeed, they would not need to take any risks at all.
By then, none of the main culprits of the Yuanchen Sect would be able to escape, and all the crises and oppression they now face will be repaid a hundredfold to the other party.
Knowing this, Liang Shaoguang only symbolically stimulated a few attacks as a gesture, lest people think the Liang Family was completely powerless.
As for the gradually departing Hua Zhenxing and his people, seeing that the reaction of Liang Shaoguang and the other Liang Family members did not seem too intense, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath of relief.
In fact, in his heart, he truly feared that Liang Shaoguang would recklessly pursue them, engaging in a desperate battle with them.
To know, within their camp, the dead and injured were many, and everyone was in very poor condition.
Moreover, their side, whether in terms of numbers or overall strength, was at a clear disadvantage.
Although the Liang Family was not in a much better situation, they at least held the geographical advantage and were in better condition, with a much higher chance of victory than them.
Under such a gap, Hua Zhenxing did not feel prepared.
Fortunately, all the worries were in vain. Now that the Liang Family did not hinder them, Hua Zhenxing would not waste any time and quickly led the remaining Golden Core Cultivators away from the Liang Family Territory.
As for those Foundation Establishment Disciples who had followed, since they had been observing the battle from a distance and were positioned at their rear.
When they realized that the situation was turning sour, they had started to retreat early on.
In this way, as Hua Zhenxing and his people left the area, they had no concerns about being pursued.
In just a dozen or so breaths, Hua Zhenxing and his party had already run more than ten li beyond.
At this place, disciples from various forces were still on their way.
At this moment, seeing Hua Zhenxing and others with pale faces and a travel-worn appearance, these Foundation Establishment Cultivators more or less understood the specifics of the outcome.
Without choice, Hua Zhenxing led his people away from this place, planning to return to their base to form a longer-term plan.
Soon, the figures of Hua Zhenxing and his people disappeared from the outside of the Liang Family Mountain Gate, leaving behind only a tragically devastated battlefield and the remaining essence in the air.
At this time, outside the Liang Family Mountain Gate.
The Liang Family members gathered around Liang Shaorong, with Liang Shaoguang immediately attending to the wounded Liang Shaorong.
As for the Yang Family Cultivators and Lin Tianming, they each formed into a group, gathering together and observing.
