Wang Ping was no hot-blooded youth. He glanced back at his master, Yu Cheng Taoist, who remained calm. Then, he said to Hu Qianqian and Guangxuan, "Don't act rashly." With that, he activated the Spirit Gathering Array on his right wrist and shot up above the clouds at top speed.
Just as the air grew thin, Wang Ping halted. Looking toward Shang'an Prefecture, he saw eight Entering Cultivators with the projected insignia of the Daoist Scripture Hall above their heads in pursuit of five Taiyin Cultivators. Two of the Taiyin Cultivators were at the Second Realm, while the remaining three were at the First Realm.
The leader of the group from the Daoist Scripture Hall was Dan Chen. His method of attack was peculiar: he used a Pill Furnace, blazing with fire, to smash the Evil Cultivators. This was the most common method used by Upper Dan Sect Cultivators. Although it looked neither elegant nor graceful, its power was surprisingly great—terrifying, even.
