Chapter 142: Qin Lan (3)
A blinding azure light appeared at Qin Lan''s battlefield.
In that split of a second before the attack arrives, Qin Lan made his move. His usual golden Spiritual Energy turned into azure-colored the moment he pushes them to his limit.
Although the appearance he triggered was simr to what his opponents did with their weapons, it wasposed uniquely.
If what Ah-Yi, Ah-Er, and Ah-San did with their Spiritual Energy is resembling how a piece of wet y is pped onto their treasure, what Qin Lan was doing is akin to fixing an arrowhead into the shaft.
What his opponent did was known asyering. It was merely a method that branches out from the application of Spiritual Energy. Layering made the weapon distinct, flexible, and more durable. It was akin to putting ayer of protective film on top of the treasure.
A simr technique can be used on the cultivator''s flesh too. Although it can be applied using a simr method, the procedure is slightly different. That''s because too durable would make it harder for the cultivator to move, and too weak would render all the effort pointless.
But such a challenge was not worthy of mentioning in front of Qin Lan at all.
To Qin Lan, their method of application is akin to the work of an inexperienced pottery craftsman. Although theyering itself was applied thoroughly without a leaking point, that was all they could do.
It was on a totally different levelpared to Qin Lan''s method of application.
Instead of merelyyering his Pir of Kuangshan with the rough and unpolished Spiritual Energy, Qin Lan chooses to coat his treasure with ayer of refined Foundation Qi.
And what is Foundation Qi? Like everyone else, the Spiritual Energy within one''s bodyes in golden color under its default setting. But only those with higherprehension are capable of refining the Spiritual Energy, in this case, Spiritual Qi, into Foundation Qi.
Hence, the differences in the color and their quality.
Their differences were likeparing a Flesh Foundation Pill with Bone Foundation Pill. Although the value of a physical number is still the same, the content hidden within the physical number itself is vastly different.
Only those with the cultivation above the middle-attainment rank in Bone Reconstruction Layer couldprehend the mysteriousness behind the azure-colored Foundation Qi used by Qin Lan.
Of course, not being able toprehend the Foundation Qi wouldn''t impede them in their aim to reach the peak of the Spiritual Root Layer. But it will undoubtedly limit their growth within this Precelestial Realm.
Perhaps in the entire battlefield right now, only the three elders hovering above the battlefield could understand how Qin Lan overpowered three opponents stronger than him effortlessly.
''This brat... What kind of fortunate encounter or master did he meet to achieve such an understanding in the world of cultivation?'' the three elders asked themselves.
Amongst the three of them, only the elder on top of the Golden Peacock managed to grasp a hint of knowledge rted to the Foundation Qi. Furthermore, that''s after his royal brother spent tons of resources in exchange for that short brief moment of enlightenment.
At this moment, Qin Lan immediately bes the prioritized target in the eyes of the three elders.
For the first time ever, all three of them had a collectively same opinion about Qin Lan.
(If I cannot keep him with me, then he''ll have to be killed before he grew into a threat!)
...
...
...
Three opponents, two of them in the peak of the sameyer and one with ayer above, ended up in a failure as their lives were taken by the Offensive Treasure in Qin Lan''s hand.
In front of Qin Lan''s Pir of Kuangshan, the trio with cultivation above him were no different from figurine made from soft y.
His first attack went to Ah-San first.
Using the "One Spear Thrusting Through the Mountain" signature Technique, Qin Lan spear extended two-foot further beyond his reach. The attack impaled Ah-San before he could scream.
After that, the spear itself turned into a de of energy as Qin Lan swung the spear downward. Treating the spear as a de, he cut Ah-Er into two before turning his attention to Ah-Yi behind him.
It was a perfect execution of three martial moves in a second.
By changing how he holds the spear, Qin Lan ended this battle with a bang as the Pir of Kuangshannded on the ground. Perhaps even Ah-Yi himself couldn''t believe that he was beheaded by Qin Lan using a simple half-moon swing technique.
The battlefield returned to its silence after everyone witnesses how Qin Lan effortlessly killed three valuable targets from the Evil Infant Sect.
"Wo..."
"Wo..."
"Woah! Praise themander!"
"Praise our mightymander!"
Loud Battlecry deafens the entire battlefield as the enemy''s Rampart Formation copsed. With only thirteen elites remained out of thirty, they''re no longer fit to continue the battle.
They were escaping from the battlefield in multiple directions, and some even killed themselves out of desperation. The scene was mind disturbing for a moment as Qin Lan''s troops went forth and captured as many they can before returning to their main force.
"Junior sister Peng Yan... Call all of them back here." the one named Wu ordered as he turned around and left. Xu Xin Cheng was remaining quiet as well. Without making ament, he too left and returned to his own tent.
At that night, the location between the Ninth Milestone and the entrance to Ten Miles in became their resting area before resuming the battle tomorrow morning,
"Commander!"
"Commander!"
"Commander!"
Everyone was greeting Qin Lan in a full salute wherever he goes.
Lifting the curtain that blocked the visibility into themander''s tent, Qin Lan entered and greeted everyone who waited for him.
"Brother Qin." Sun Wu Jian cupped his hand together the moment the hero for today entered the tent. Everyone quickly followed Sun Wu Jian''s gesture as they collectively stand up before Qin Lan.
"At ease, everyone. Let''s skip the formalities." Qin Lan replied.
