Immortal Only Accepts Female Disciples

Chapter 191: Joint Operation

Chapter 191: Joint Operation

Today was the first time that Chen Wentian had assembled all of his disciples together for a joint operation. Before they headed out from Black Rock City, he gave them all a quick pep talk. He also took the opportunity to enjoy the splendid scene before his eyes.

Lin Qingcheng had on her favorite yellow dress with the Golden Serpent Robe worn discreetly underneath. She had on a set of golden metal gauntlets from his armory. It gave her slightly better combat ability against monsters and saved her fists from injury.

Zhou Ziyun had chosen a similar white battle robe to Wu Qianyu. They looked like a pair of warrior princesses, one with a saber and the other with a sword. They both looked especially beautiful today.

The ice sisters always wore different colored garb and today was no different. With swords in hand, they were determined and ready for battle. Their combined aura could fight against the strongest monsters below the immortal realm.

Long Yifei stood off to the side by herself, also in white. Her dress was more elegant than functional and she chose to portray the visage of an untouchable goddess. She had no physical weapon but her weapon was her ice, capable of wiping away any foe before they could even touch her.

Chen Wentian grinned and gave them a thumbs up. He turned to Jasmine by his side and nudged her.

"Hey, you ready?" He teased.

"Noisy!" She scoffed.

"Whatever Okay, everyone is ready for action. Qianyu, get everyone in and follow." He commanded.

"Yes master!"

Wu Qianyu drew out Tortoise Can Fly from her spatial bag and everyone went in before closing the door. Since she was the current 'owner' of the flying carriage, she was able to fly it while safety inside the carriage.

"Let's go!" Chen Wentian said and launched into the air.

Jasmine followed closely, followed by Tortoise Can Fly.

They first headed north with the aim to turn the flank on the monster invasion. There, the number of monsters was less and they were more spread out than other areas. Chen Wentian wanted to force these monsters to flee south east so that they become more concentrated in the central area of the province.

"We've arrived at our first spot. Qianyu, stay back. Jasmine, let's go." He said as they approached a lonely mountain.

The pair headed off and activated their immortal powers. They flew around and split apart, each approaching the mountain from the north and the west. On the north side, the air was soon filled with searing heat as a domain of blue flames landed on the mountain. On the west side, Jasmine launched moon beams like a hail storm, penetrating the rocky mountainside like it was made from tofu.

At first, it seemed like they were wasting energy attacking a bunch of rocks but soon, hordes of ugly creatures started to emerge from hidden caves. The creature that had taken over this mountain was the rock scorpion, a venomous beast with black rocky shells that grew as large as a person.

The mountain quickly teemed with rock scorpions. Large and small, there were thousands, perhaps even tens of thousands. They angrily snapped their claws at Chen Wentian and Jasmine in their air above them but it was useless. The strongest among the rock scorpions were only at the beginning of the Spirit Initiate Realm and it was not a fair fight.

High above, the other disciples watched the scene from the windows of Tortoise Can Fly. The scorpions quickly started fleeing but many were cooked alive by blue flames or blasted into nothingness by moonlight.

"Ayah so many points!" Su Xue cried. "Gone just like that."

This earned her a light smack form Song Wushuang. "Xue'er, don't you remember what master said? The plan is not to waste time killing the weakest monsters but to gather up the strongest for the most points."

Su Xue rubbed her head, "I was only joking. Sis, you're so mean."

Lin Qingcheng giggled and rubbed Su Xue's head as well, "Sister Xue, don't worry. I actually did forget what he said, he talked for way too long!"

"Chengcheng!" Zhou Ziyun admonished.

"Hehe, I'm joking too!"

The squeals of laughter broke apart the serious air in the carriage and all the disciples visibly relaxed. This was the first for them all to work together all at once. Many felt strangely apprehensive, especially in the presence of Lin Qingcheng and Zhou Ziyun were the most junior and yet held the most senior positions.

In that sense. Lin Qingcheng performed her task as prime disciple wonderfully. With a few words, she improved the mental state of all of her fellow disciples.

The girls chatted with each other as they watched Chen Wentian and Jasmine drive the rock scorpions out of their burrows. Soon, there was no more movement on the mountain. Around half the rock scorpions had managed to escape and flee together in a south-east direction. The weakest ones remained on the mountain, charred, obliterated, or otherwise dead. Those that fled were around the Mind Focusing Realm and low Spirit Initiate Realm and they would soon provide a massive amount of points.

The point system of the Monster Fighting Competition was generally fair for everyone at the beginning of the competition. It allowed everyone to contribute to the war effort while giving out proportional points to the level of effort and the cultivation of the monsters. Now that the competition was approaching the end, it was apparent that those at the lower ranks had no chance of catching up to the higher ranks.

Stronger competitors were able to consistently slay stronger monsters and in greater number. The gap between the lower level competitors and the top grew wider with each passing day. The only method to catch up was to slaughter the strongest monsters. An upper Mind Focusing Realm monster was only ten points while a 10th Level Spirit Initiate Realm boss monster was one thousand points. Even a 1st Level Spirit Initiate Realm monster gave one hundred points. It was a huge amount of points. Simply slaying a single Spirit Initiate Realm monster could allow someone in the lower ranks to jump a few places upward!

Chen Wentian truly only had eyes for Spirit Initiate Realm monsters. His mind was filled with points as well. He wanted all of the ice sisters to get into the top one hundred and he was prepared to go all out to make it happen.
