Chapter 1321: Seizing the Opportunity to Escape

~8 min read 1,422 words

Mingchen knew very well that although the encirclement by the Octopus Clan and the Sea Giant Clan had been broken, this only meant it was easier for the Mermaid Clan cultivators to break out.

It did not mean that the two clans would be routed just like that.

The gap in the number of cultivators between the Mermaid Clan and the two clans was too great; this was not something he alone could make up for.

Currently, his Spiritual Power and bloodline were severely depleted.

If he continued to fight, he would sooner or later be exhausted to death.

By then.

The Mermaid Clan would likely be routed immediately.

The Mermaid Clan cultivators present naturally understood this point.

After hearing Mingchen's voice transmission, they immediately began to withdraw from the battlefield.

Seeing the Mermaid Clan cultivators beginning to retreat, Wang Jianqiang frowned.

The Mermaid Clan cultivators would soon evacuate.

If he continued to stay on the battlefield, once all the Mermaid Clan cultivators had evacuated, he would definitely be besieged.

At that time...

Even he would fall into danger.

He had to retreat.

But before that.

His gaze shifted, landing on Lianyin, who was fighting the Octopus Ancestor Phantom.

Although Lianyin was strong, the Octopus Ancestor Phantom was even more powerful.

Moreover, if she stayed behind to cover the retreat, she would have to endure the danger of being besieged.

He had to leave a safeguard for Lianyin.

Thinking of this.

With a movement of his mind, he sent a voice transmission to Lianyin.

"Lianyin, catch."

At the same time, he waved his palm, and a Space Ring was flung out by him, flying toward Lianyin.

Lianyin heard Wang Jianqiang's voice transmission.

Her heart stirred.

She looked toward the rear without changing her expression.

At the same time.

Anyou, who was presiding over the Spirit Summoning Array, also noticed the Space Ring flying over.

He had also noted Wang Jianqiang's previous performance.

Although the other party's strength was not worth mentioning, he seemed to possess a great many treasures.

He could not let the Mermaid Princess obtain this Space Ring!

He moved his mind.

The Octopus Ancestor Phantom seemed to sense his will, and a tentacle swept out, curling toward the Space Ring.

Lianyin frowned slightly.

Her figure did not move, and her slender fingers were still plucking the strings of her zither.

The previously impassioned zither music suddenly converged, infiltrating everywhere like a trickling stream, and in the blink of an eye, it covered this space, forming a special field.

Just as the tentacle of the Octopus Ancestor Phantom was about to touch the Space Ring.

The Space Ring flashed and suddenly disappeared.

The next moment.

The ring flashed into existence in front of Lianyin.

Lianyin beckoned with one hand, and this Space Ring immediately slipped onto one of her fingers.

She moved her mind, and when she checked the items inside the Space Ring.

Her beautiful eyes widened slightly in an instant.

She was the Mermaid Princess, the second-tier power echelon in the Mermaid Clan only after the Mermaid Empress, a true high-level member of the Mermaid Clan.

It was not that she had never seen the world.

On the contrary...

She had entered the Mermaid Clan's treasury more than once; in terms of knowledge, she was far more extensive than ordinary cultivators.

But when she saw the items in the Space Ring gifted by Wang Jianqiang, she still could not help but reveal a look of astonishment.

This Space Ring was filled entirely with Disposable Magic Treasures!

Disposable Magic Treasures were much harder to refine than ordinary Magic Treasures, and the materials used were no less than those for Magic Treasures of the same level; using them could be called extravagant.

This also made very few cultivators willing to refine Disposable Magic Treasures.

Therefore, among Magic Treasures of the same level, Disposable Magic Treasures were far rarer than ordinary ones.

Low-level Magic Treasures were one thing; after all, the consumption was not that great, and although Disposable Magic Treasures were few, they were still relatively common.

But at the Integration Stage level, the materials required to refine Magic Treasures had already become rare.

Very few people were willing to refine Disposable Magic Treasures.

This also made Magic Treasures at this level extremely rare.

However, although there were few Magic Treasures capable of threatening the Integration Stage, as a high-level member of her clan, Lianyin had still seen some.

She had even seen Disposable Magic Treasures capable of threatening Void Refinement Stage cultivators.

But...

Those were all in units of "ones" or "tens."

It was her first time seeing hundreds or thousands of Disposable Magic Treasures, each with power capable of threatening an Integration Stage Cultivator.

Wang Jianqiang, a Cultivator who had just broken into the Integration Stage, where could he have gotten so many Disposable Magic Treasures?

This...

It is simply inhumanly wealthy!

Originally, she had no absolute certainty of escaping unscathed after covering her clansmen's retreat, but now, with so many Disposable Magic Treasures.

Not only did she have full confidence in escaping unscathed, she was even more confident in causing the Octopus Clan and the Sea Giant race to suffer heavy losses!

"Take care of yourself, Brother is retreating first."

Wang Jianqiang only kept two of the most powerful Disposable Magic Treasures for self-protection, and as for those Disposable Magic Treasures that could threaten Integration Stage Cultivators, he packed them all up and gave them to Lianyin.

With these Magic Treasures, it would not be difficult for Lianyin to escape unscathed.

Afterwards, he did not continue to stay on the battlefield.

He flew toward the outside of the battlefield at a leisurely pace.

Wherever he passed.

Whether they were Octopus Clan Cultivators or Sea Giant Cultivators, although they all glared at him with rage, not a single one dared to stop in front of him for even half a moment.

No one dared to gamble on whether he still had those kinds of powerful Disposable Magic Treasures on him.

If it were before the formation was disrupted, they might have steeled themselves to try, for the sake of keeping the formation intact.

But now...

No one wanted to take that risk.

If the gamble was won, it was merely killing a lowly Nascent Soul Stage.

If the gamble was lost, one would lose their own life.

Not worth it!

With the Cultivators of the two races thinking this way, Wang Jianqiang traveled unimpeded, easily crossing the battlefield and arriving outside it.

"Brother Tianyu, it is truly great that you are alright."

"Take this chance to flee quickly, I will cover your retreat."

Mingchen happened to be not far from Wang Jianqiang; upon seeing Wang Jianqiang, his figure flashed and he appeared by Wang Jianqiang's side.

In order to help his clansmen escape as quickly as possible and then go to help Lianyin, he had been in high-intensity combat the entire time.

All his focus had been placed on the battle.

He had not noticed Wang Jianqiang's "breakout" process, nor had he seen the scene of Wang Jianqiang slaughtering powerful enemies.

He only assumed that Wang Jianqiang had relied purely on luck, and on the fact that his low strength did not attract the enemy's attention, to luckily escape.

If Mingchen's politeness toward Wang Jianqiang before was just a Disguise, and his heart was actually full of disdain.

At this moment, Mingchen's words were full of concern and sincerity.

In his view, the reason Lianyin had changed her opinion of him so quickly, and even spared no effort to protect him from the Octopus phantom at the risk of her own safety...

Was all the result of Brother Tianyu tirelessly maneuvering and mediating in between.

While he spoke, he kept a vigilant eye on the surrounding enemies.

Seeing that his own arrival seemed to have provided Deterrence to the enemies, those Octopus Clan and Sea Giant Cultivators, although they were eyeing him covetously, none dared to rush up immediately.

He could not help but smile triumphantly in his heart.

His own Slaughter Power from before had, after all, made these people feel terrified.

To the side.

After hearing Mingchen's words, Wang Jianqiang nodded and did not stand on ceremony with him.

"Take care, Brother Mingchen."

Having said that, he turned into a streak of light and flew away into the distance.

After Wang Jianqiang left.

The enemies all around who had been showing hesitation seemed unable to endure any longer and rushed to attack Mingchen one after another.
