Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Outside Yuyao City.

Chen Jingtian glanced at the army of human cultivators. The Qi Refining Cultivators had all completed their retreat, with only a few hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators behind them, assisting in fending off the Demon Beast Army.

This group of people was the true backbone of the human race's strength, each of them at least at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Level, and many were disciples of the Zhenyang Sect.

Their overall strength was even stronger than the thousands who had already retreated.

Thus, the role of these people in a battle with an unknown duration was self-evident.

Now, their few top fighters had expended a great deal of energy. Once these core forces had successfully retreated, they must return to Yuyao City to recuperate.

As for repelling the Demon Beast Army, that would require further plotting.

"As the saying goes, 'As long as the green hills last, there will be wood to burn!'"

Having cultivated for hundreds of years, he understood this truth all too well.

After much thought, Chen Jingtian sighed with reluctance, having made up his mind.

Decided, he immediately shouted: "All those who have not yet retreated, fall back to Yuyao City immediately. We will stop the demonic beasts from attacking you!"

Upon hearing this, the many Foundation Establishment Cultivators behind him ceased their attacks on the demonic beasts and hastily began to retreat.

Lin Tianming and Li Xiuyuan were among the fastest, taking the lead, ahead of the majority of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Thankfully, the human cultivators were agile and flexible in their retreat, and with only a few hundred people, they were not too crowded.

Otherwise, with so many people running together while trying to ensure their own safety, the efficiency would have been notably lower.

At that moment, Chen Jingtian and his comrades watched the orderly retreat of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, without dragging their feet.

Satisfied, Chen Jingtian nodded and turned his full attention to the Third Order Demon Beasts ahead.

"Roar..."

The Blazing Flame Celestial Lion howled at the sky, seemingly unwilling to let the retreating cultivators go easily.

Seeing this, Chen Jingtian's expression grew stern, and he murmured to Wang Hengqiu and the others beside him.

"Fellow brothers, let's join forces to stop them, and then find an opportunity to retreat!"

"Understood. Everyone, be careful!"

As Wang Hengqiu responded, he was the first to initiate an attack.

Seeing his brother act, Chen Jingtian did not delay. He waved his sleeve, and several Third Order Talismans appeared in his hand.

Spiritual Light burst forth from the talismans upon Chen's Law Decree, transforming into a sky filled with a downpour of fire that rained down upon the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Loud explosions sounded, and the sky turned fiery red in an instant. Many demonic beasts were unable to avoid the deluge and were directly ignited by the sea of flames.

Screams filled the air as numerous First Order Demon Beasts were evaporated by the fire, leaving no remains behind.

Underneath the terrifying sea of fire, only the demonic beasts at or beyond the middle and late Second Order could resist a little, but even then, they were severely wounded if not killed outright.

In such a situation, the battlefield at that moment resembled a purgatory on earth.

Now, seeing Chen Jingtian and his comrades strike with such ferocity, the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion became utterly enraged, its blood-red eyes fixated on the retreating crowd, clearly intending to retaliate against the humans.

However, Chen and his comrades had anticipated this and had made ample preparations in advance for the demonic beasts' attack.

With a clear goal in mind, and considering their considerable expenditure of spiritual power, they aimed only to lead the human cultivators back to Yuyao City.

Therefore, they did not overestimate themselves, still prioritizing defense and avoiding rash actions.

After several rounds of intense combat, even though the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion was the most powerful, it could not breach the immaculate defenses, and the Demon Beast Army still did not achieve success.

Seeing the gradual retreat of the hundreds of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, if they did not inflict significant damage, the Demon Beast Army would still fail to gain the upper hand in this battle.

In such circumstances, the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion, extremely aggravated, led the entire Demon Beast Army and numerous demonic beasts to unleash their strongest attacks.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The sky continued to rumble with thunder, the very air filled with various means of attack, each strike gathering the power from all sides.

At this moment, neither demonic beasts nor humans would easily yield to the other.

"Crackle..."

The attack unleashed by Chen Jingtian was furiously powerful, colliding fiercely with that of the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion. The affected area shook. Many lower-level demonic beasts unable to evade the shockwave were left dead in its aftermath.

At this sight, the Blazing Flame Celestial Lion roared in complete fury.

With a bellow to the sky, the Blood Jiao behind it was similarly enraged. Each of the seven Third Order Demon Beasts activated their Innate Divine Abilities.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Various peculiar attacks manifested, every one capable of obliterating a Foundation Establishment Late-Stage Cultivator without leaving even dust behind.

At this critical juncture, Chen Jingtian and his comrades, faced with the divinely powerful attacks of the demonic beasts, looked extremely solemn.

"Brothers, the juniors have almost completely retreated. Let's not hold back any longer. After this strike, we'll retreat immediately!"

Chen Jingtian shouted loudly. He then patted his storage bag, and a faint blue bead appeared in his hand.

"Blue Star Bead!"

"Brother Chen is indeed willing to part with such a treasure!"

Seeing Chen Jingtian's action and the brightly colored bead, everyone recognized its purpose and exclaimed in unison.

The Blue Star Bead, similar to a talisman in function, was a one-time consumable item. Its difficulty in crafting was immense, relying entirely on the inner cores of numerous late-stage Third Order water-attribute demonic beasts. Its value was self-evident.
