Chapter 377: Performance of the Second
“Ding ding” “Puff”
As the magical artifacts clashed with spells, powerful forces rampaged wildly, accompanied by a cacophony of ear-piercing sounds.
The mere residual waves that leaked unintentionally caused the battlefield to be turned upside down.
Grass and trees turned to ashes, the ground was pockmarked, and traces of various spells like flames and frost were everywhere.
The land lay in ruins.
Despite the efforts of the Hua Family cultivators to resist, it ultimately proved effective. Most of the attacks from Liu Yu and Li Buyu's side were intercepted midway, with only a few attacks breaking through the blockade.
Among them, two spiritual artifacts drew the most attention: one was a Firebird wreathed in flames, and the other was a silver-white Flood Dragon.
Especially the latter, whose might surpassed that of the former by several notches.
After two years of "plundering," the other foundation establishment cultivators in the team also had their share of superior spiritual artifacts.
However, due to differences in their realms and magical power, the power they could unleash still fell short, insufficient to break through the defenses of the Hua Family's foundation establishment cultivators.
Once the dark red Firebird and the silver Flood Dragon broke through the Hua Family's foundation establishment defenses, they collided with countless first-tier spells and a vast "ocean" formed by numerous ordinary magical artifacts.
Fire serpents, ice spikes, and lightning
Countless first-tier spells shone with colorful spiritual light, resembling bright stars and forming an overwhelming "ocean" that submerged both the Firebird and the silver Flood Dragon.
“Bang bang bang”
The dark red Firebird and silver Flood Dragon swept through with reckless abandon, with even a casual strike capable of obliterating several first-tier spells.
However, once one spell was destroyed, another immediately followed.
A seemingly endless barrage of low-tier spells appeared, dense and overwhelming.
If an ordinary foundation establishment cultivator were to see this, they would undoubtedly feel a sense of dread.
Yet, Liu Yu and Li Buyu were naturally not ordinary cultivators, and the Li Xuan Sword and silver ring were not magical artifacts to be compared lightly.
Even after annihilating hundreds of low-tier spells, the two spiritual artifacts could still "freely" return.
The low-tier spells and ordinary magical artifacts could not harm the two spiritual artifacts in the slightest, nor could they hinder their movements.
“Continue, do not stop.”
A single round of offense failing to achieve results did not mean anything. Li Buyu was not the least bit discouraged, calmly controlling the overall situation.
As the first wave of attacks gradually subsided and before the next wave could be launched, a brief calm emerged around the spiritual mountain, the atmosphere thick with anticipation.
But this was merely the calm before the storm!
With each magical artifact and spiritual artifact soaring into the air, this tranquility was quickly shattered, and the area around the spiritual mountain became lively once more.
“Not bad; although my senior sister comes from a large family, she is no wastrel but a true talented individual.”
“Her command is orderly, and her orchestration embodies the essence of military strategy.”
“No wonder she has had many achievements over the past two years and has garnered so much attention within the sect.”
Observing Li Buyu's performance, Liu Yu nodded inwardly.
With such a background from a prominent family, possessing an excellent spiritual root aptitude and being sufficiently diligent, what could ordinary cultivators do to surpass her?
Perhaps they could only rely on "opportunity" or "miracle."
But opportunities and miracles are something only a tiny, tiny fraction of cultivators can seize.
Most cultivators hail from ordinary backgrounds, with ordinary spiritual roots, living their lives in mediocrity, struggling to even transcend the foundation establishment threshold.
