Chapter 215: 115~116: A Thousand Miles of Danger, Urgent Wind and Rain, True Fire Refines the Heart, Thoughts Connect (Combined for Monthly Tickets)_4 Chapter 215: 115~116: A Thousand Miles of Danger, Urgent Wind and Rain, True Fire Refines the Heart, Thoughts Connect (Combined for Monthly Tickets)_4 In Chen Dengming’s eyes, this skill was akin to the high-tier abilities commonly seen in games, capable of stealing both mana and health.
When used against an enemy, if the enemy is unable to resist, the skill would drain their primordial qi and spiritual energy and convert it into his own.
When used on himself, it would allow him to rapidly recover spiritual energy at the expense of his own primordial qi.
As such, this method could seem overly radical and akin to demonic cultivation, serving as a desperate last resort move in life and death battles.
“If used correctly, this skill can turn the tide of battle and potentially save one’s life.
Yet, if used improperly, it could hand our lives to the enemy…
I wonder if things will change if I can master it to a higher level.”
Lost in contemplation, he gradually saw the fog-enveloped mountain gate of the Changchun Sect up ahead.
...
A Mountain Protection Array that looked like an upside-down bowl was already activated.
A great number of disciples, each resembling tiny dots, had been summoned, all appearing as if facing a great enemy.
“Someone’s attacking our sect?”
A chill ran down Chen Dengming’s spine.
Was he wrong?
Could there be a Golden Core cultivator making a move?
Otherwise, why would they activate the Mountain Protection Array?
The disciples who had gathered behind him also started to rise and began discussing nervously.
At this time, a message was obtained from a jade talisman.
The Vice Sect Leader Liang had responded.
“Junior Brother Chen, I am relieved that you are unharmed.
However, Junior Brother Wang, Junior Brother Li and Junior Sister He among others have each been attacked.
They are located separately in the Eagle Wind Ravine and on the Foggy River Beach.
This incident is too suspicious, and occurs precisely when Sect Leader Qiu and others are in the midst of carrying out a significant affair.
I’m afraid the enemy’s target is the Longevity Incense held by the Sect gate and Sect Leader Qiu.
We had no choice but to activate the Mountain Protection Array out of alertness.
Junior Brother Guan and Senior Brother Mo have already left for the rescue.
Junior Brother Chen, you should rush to their aid as well.
Remember, act according to circumstances and ensure your own safety…”
Chen Dengming’s expression changed drastically.
The situation he had been worried about had indeed happened.
Even Old Man Mo, who was nearly retired and guarded the Transmitting Method Hall, had also rushed to the rescue.
It must be a desperate and dangerous situation.
The last words that Senior Brother Liang had said sounded like a reminder, but also tugged at a string in his heart.
Act according to circumstances, ensure your own safety.
Could he freely choose to stay or go as he pleased?
If he chose not to assist, hid somewhere until the crisis was over, and then emerged, who could blame him?
Or, if he pretended to go but arrived late, no one could blame him for that, right?
Why take unnecessary risks by going?
Wouldn’t the worst thing that could happen be the eradication of the sect?
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Perhaps things wouldn’t be so bad.
The Changchun Sect wouldn’t be destroyed, Junior Sister He and others would return safe and sound, and regardless of whether he would be looked down upon and lose their trust, refusing him entry into the Longevity Sect in the future, at least he wouldn’t have to take any risks.
Perhaps he shouldn’t go…
Perhaps he really shouldn’t go.
A voice seemed to echo in his mind, filled with a demonic aura, tempting him, shaking his beliefs, suffocating him, almost shattering the spirit of a cultivator that resided deep within him.
This voice reduced everything to a single word— ‘Cower, Cower, Cower’.
Cowardice till the end, cowardice till the sect is destroyed but I survive, cowardice till my wife and child are gone but I live, cowardice till my fellow cultivators die but I don’t, cowardice till the end, till immortality, and then everything will be worthwhile!
His mind felt as though it was struck by a myriad of lightning bolts, but Chen Dengming found his stubborn determination from the time he overturned the Five Elements Mountain.
In life, one can be cautious and timid, but there are some things that require firm persistence.
Without it, it’s not being cautious, but simply surviving desperately until attaining immortality.
But that would just make him an old devil who could sacrifice everything, having only a lifespan, but being despised by everyone.
“Senior Brother Li led me on the path of cultivation, Junior Sister He treated me with deep affection.
I owe them.
Furthermore, if these demon cultivators truly have the ability, they would have directly attacked the sect gate instead of playing these secretive tricks in the shadows.
Obviously, they have not reached such a powerful level, not even a Golden Core cultivator would have!”
Chen Dengming’s eyes cleared up suddenly.
Hesitation is common in people, but persistence is a rare and precious trait.
He had made up his mind to rush over to help.
If he can save them, he will do his utmost to do so.
If he can’t, he will prioritize his own safety, at least keeping a clear conscience.
He quickly input spiritual energy into the jade talisman to respond to Senior Brother Liang.
After that, he rose into the air under the surprised gaze of his fellow disciples, operated the spirit boat, sped ahead towards the sect gate while transforming in a flash into Azure Rainbow Sword Qi, whisking himself off like a bolt of lightning.
Treasure sword piercing the sky, never too late, rushing thousands of miles to imminent danger, facing hardship with unwavering conviction.
Within the gate of Changchun Sect.
Upon seeing the jade talisman light up again and reading the message within, Liang Yunsheng revealed a gratified smile on his exhausted face.
The Changchun Sect could trust this new Foundation Establishment junior brother…
