Chapter 203: Power up
Yu Hong gave a bitter smile and said, "We did have a few treasures in the past, but they were taken away by our seniors a long time ago and have never been returned..."
Indeed, the sect did possess treasures, but with his level of power, he was simply incapable of activating them. Those were spiritual treasures that only cultivators with a cultivation level above the Divided Spirit stage could use.
As for what they could use, it was limited to personal spiritual swords, without any truly powerful spiritual treasures.
Among them, an ancient sword of spiritual treasure level, which was originally stored in the treasury, was now carried by Yu Hong.
They were already considering emptying the treasury to prevent it from being looted if the sect was breached. If the treasures were kept with a cultivator at the Elemental Infant stage, even if an accident occurred, they would still have a large amount of resources to counterattack after escaping.
After all, it was very difficult to kill a cultivator at the Elemental Infant stage.
Brahman Sa and Yin Jin secretly marveled. They were truly curious about which powerful figure from the Heart Sect's past was. They were both old cultivators and knew almost everything about this planet. Yet, they had never heard a whisper about a senior expert hidden in the Heart Sect. It was truly mysterious to the extreme.
After a while, the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden returned.
Yu Hong asked, "Junior sister, how is it?"
The Azure Descent Immortal Maiden replied, "I have sent the message, but there is no response yet..."
Yu Hong, Mo Chentian, and Mu Hengyuan all showed a hint of disappointment in their eyes. It was normal for the senior to not respond while in seclusion. If he did respond, it would be abnormal.
But now, the sect was at a critical moment. If the sect was breached, the place where the senior was in seclusion would likely be broken into as well. If they were unprepared at that time, things would become even more troublesome.

Mi Xiaojing was also talking to Wang Weijun.
"Kid, you'd better leave this hall as soon as possible. This place is definitely a death trap!"

"I know, this is the core area of the sect. Before the enemy breaks the formation, this is the safest area. But once the enemy invades, this place will be the first target. It's indeed time to leave, but where should we go at this time?"
"Anywhere, just don't stay here!"
"Old man, do you really have no faith in the Heart Sect?"
"Pah, a bunch of kittens with no abilities, pretending to be high-level cultivators. A sect with such a long heritage doesn't even have a decent Pill Master. It's rare to see a sect that has been living off its past glory to this extent. The only decent thing is the large sword formation protecting the mountain, but they even managed to mess that up. It's really hard for me to have confidence in them."
"A bunch of wastes, a bunch of idiots. If the seniors of the Heart Sect come back, they would probably die of anger!"
Mi Xiaojing was dumbfounded. This was too dismissive. He didn't think the Heart Sect was that bad, but in Wang Weijun's mouth, it was utterly worthless, with not a single good point, all negative reviews.
"Let's go! Why are we still staying here!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion around them. Someone pointed to the sky and shouted, "What is that?"
Mi Xiaojing quickly looked up.
A mountain! He saw a very magical mountain, just hanging abruptly in the high sky above the main peak!
Everyone was in an uproar, and Wang Weijun also saw it: "Kid, that's a spiritual treasure! Be careful!"
Yu Hong and the others on the main peak saw it even more clearly. Their faces all changed. They suddenly realized that this was what the Vast Gold Sect had been preparing for these past few days, intending to use it to break the defensive formation.
Hold it up!
This was the thought of every Elemental Infant expert present. One by one, they released their spiritual swords, preparing to hold up the mountain when it pressed down. They hadn't reacted yet, this was an ancient spiritual treasure.
The cultivators on the main peak were all staring at the sky in a daze. Everyone knew this was the Vast Gold Sect's killing move, but before it fell, they inevitably thought that with the defensive formation and the Elemental Infant stage elders present, this thing shouldn't be able to harm the main peak, right?
From the moment the Linglong Mountain appeared until everyone noticed it, a full minute passed. It just hung there motionlessly. The cultivators of the Heart Sect were all confused. Why don't you fall? What's the point of hanging up there?
It wasn't that Xu Zhongqing didn't want to press down with the Linglong Mountain, but after he fully activated the attack mode of the Linglong Mountain, he realized that launching an attack was not as simple as he thought.
There were still many problems that hadn't been solved, which made his face turn green.
Ban Jin was a crude and impatient man by nature. Even though he was already a cultivator at the Elemental Infant stage, he was still the same. He said, "Attack! Attack!"
Xu Zhongqing regretted in his heart. He should have tried it first. He was confused and was urged by several people from the Vast Gold Sect, so he flew directly to the main peak.
No one had expected that there would be steps required to form an attack.
They had originally planned to catch them off guard by smashing the main peak with Linglong Mountain. However, while Linglong Mountain did activate, they couldn't execute the smashing action, which infuriated the group of Elemental Infant old monsters, especially those from the Vast Gold Sect, who were extremely angry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBan Jin was extremely irritable, continuously shouting, "Strike! Smash! Why aren't you moving!"
Unable to bear it any longer, Xu Zhongqing shouted, "Shut up!" His immense Elemental Infant Great Perfection aura directly suppressed Ban Jin.
Ban Jin's face changed drastically. He hadn't expected Xu Zhongqing to turn against him so quickly. He couldn't withstand Xu Zhongqing's immense aura and kept retreating.
"Thousand Poisons" Qian Da shouted, "They're coming up!"
Seeing that things were going wrong, Yu Hong and the others each released their weapons in an attempt to attack Linglong Mountain. They also flew out of the defensive formation, no longer able to rely on it. At this point, they could only fight desperately.
A chaotic battle ensued.
Yu Hong faced off against Radix Notoginseng, while Brahman Sa directly targeted Xu Zhongqing. Both of them were at the Elemental Infant Great Perfection cultivation level. In reality, Xu Zhongqing was stronger than Brahman Sa. He was a veteran Elemental Infant Great Perfection cultivator, while Brahman Sa was just a newly promoted expert. However, Xu Zhongqing was hindered by Linglong Mountain, and for a time, the two of them were evenly matched.
Xu Zhongqing shouted, "Help me hold her off!"
Yu Hong roared, "Kill!"
No one helped Xu Zhongqing. No one wanted to get involved in a fight with an Elemental Infant Great Perfection cultivator. Xu Zhongqing was forced to release his own spirit sword, barely blocking Brahman Sa's attack. Half of his attention was on Linglong Mountain.
One magical technique after another, Linglong Mountain grew even larger, expanding rapidly like a balloon.
Xu Zhongqing's spirit sword took a defensive stance, barely blocking Brahman Sa's attack.
"Thousand Poisons" Qian Da and Big Head Zheng retreated towards the distance. Neither of them wanted to fight to the death, they were just each holding off one person.
"Thousand Poisons" Qian Da held off Mu Hengyuan, while Big Head Zheng held off the Azure Descent Immortal Maiden.
Mo Chentian faced off against Ban Jin, while Yin Jin faced off against Oni.
The cultivators on the main peak all looked up at the sky. The space above the main peak had turned into a complete mess.
