Just as the Green Water Dragon opened its mouth to bite the Pure Heart Lotus, several sword lights hit the dragon's head from the side and back, knocking its head half an inch off the target, causing it to bite nothing.
The one who made the move was the leading female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak. She had been keeping an eye on the Pure Heart Lotus to prevent anyone from taking it away in the chaos.
Unexpectedly, it actually hit the mark and stopped the action of the Green Water Dragon.
The Green Water Dragon was furious, but was unwilling to give up the Pure Heart Lotus that was right in front of it, so it raised its claws and headed towards the Pure Heart Lotus.
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and quickly performed several spells, heading towards the green water dragon.
There were also disciples at Qianji Peak who practiced formations. With the help of the power of the formation, they condensed a thick ray of lightning, which struck directly at the dragon's claws, burning them black and emitting bursts of smoke.
The Green Water Dragon felt the pain and had no time to take the Pure Heart Lotus. Its body tumbled, and the water level suddenly rose several inches.
Two green water dragons kept swimming in the pool. The water in the cave was increasing, almost flooding the entire cave.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but feel anxious. If the cave was flooded, the situation would undoubtedly be very unfavorable for them.
After all, when fighting in water, the Green Water Dragon has a natural advantage.
The female cultivator from Xuanjian Peak frowned. If there was only one green water dragon, with everyone's combined strength, they would still have a chance to fight.
But the two green water dragons in the foundation-building stage could definitely not be dealt with by just the twenty or thirty Qi-cultivating monks.
"Disciples of Xuanjian Peak, listen up and evacuate immediately!"
No matter how good the Pure Heart Lotus is, you have to be alive to get it.
"yes."
Upon hearing this, several disciples from Xuanjian Peak retreated without hesitation.
Upon seeing this, most of the disciples from other peaks made the same choice and decisively withdrew.
Only a few people showed strong unwillingness in their eyes and wanted to try their best to get the Pure Heart Lotus.
A figure rushed forward quickly, but before he got close to the Pure Heart Lotus, he was pierced through the body by several water arrows and fell into the lotus pond.
Seeing this scene, the other few people who were in doubt couldn't help but feel frightened. They dared not hesitate any more and retreated to the back.
At this time, disciples from the Main Peak, Dan Peak and Qi Peak approached the cave.
After seeing clearly the two green figures lurking beside the Pure Heart Lotus, their eyes shrank slightly and they gasped.
"There are actually two green water dragons here! What's wrong with you people from Danfeng? Didn't you say there was only one foundation-building dragon beast?"
No wonder when they came in, the disciples from other peaks were running for their lives.
The leading male cultivator at Danfeng's peak kept changing his expression. It was useless for him to still laugh at the disciples from other peaks, as so many people couldn't even deal with a Foundation Establishment Stage Green Water Dragon.
I never thought that there was a second green water dragon hidden in this lotus pond!
He took a deep breath to suppress the fear in his heart, "I didn't know about this beforehand."
The leading brother of the main peak shook his head, with a cautious look in his eyes.
"To seize the Pure Heart Lotus, you can only use your wits, not force it. Or you can find a way to trap these two Jade Water Dragons for a while, and take the Pure Heart Lotus away. I also ask my fellow disciples not to hide it, otherwise you will only be defeated and killed in front of these two foundation-building monsters."
After saying that, he led the disciples of the main peak and took the initiative to go towards a green water dragon.
Upon seeing this, the people from Danfeng and Qifeng went to meet the second green water dragon.
To use Qi training against foundation building is still extremely difficult, even if these people are all inner sect elites and have precious treasures bestowed by their masters.
Especially the disciples of the main peak, there were only more than ten of them, and they were barely able to deal with the Green Water Dragon. Disciples were injured from time to time, and the battle situation was very difficult.
Just as the two groups were engaged in a fierce battle, outside the cave, many inner disciples who had just retreated came back.
The leader of Zhen Peak was a female cultivator. She looked at the leading female cultivator of Xuanjian Peak and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
"Why did Senior Sister Jin leave and come back?"
The female cultivator surnamed Jin, who was carrying a heavy sword, raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Isn't it the same for Senior Sister Tang?"
The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
What is Danfeng Gu Letian's plan? Does he really think that others don't know? It is obvious that he is using others as cannon fodder.
It is not easy to take away the Pure Heart Lotus while they are fighting with the Green Water Dragon.
Several disciples from Fufeng and Yushoufeng sneered, "That guy surnamed Gu is not a good person. He wanted to monopolize the Pure Heart Lotus at first, but later when he saw that the situation was not good, he asked us to take the lead while he took advantage of the situation. How can such a good thing happen in the world?"
"Isn't this already there?"
The female cultivator surnamed Jin curled her lips and smiled, "Danfeng relies on its power and never takes us peaks seriously. I wonder what kind of expression Gu Letian will have if we snatch the Pure Heart Lotus from under their noses?"
The female cultivator surnamed Tang from Zhenfeng smiled slightly when she heard this. Senior Sister Jin and she had the same idea. They should give someone a taste of their own medicine.
Inside the cave, the disciples from Dan Peak, Main Peak and Qi Peak were fighting bitterly. Facing the monsters whose cultivation was a whole realm higher than theirs, they were fighting very passively and people were injured from time to time.
Several people were hit by the tail of the green water dragon and fell unconscious on the spot.
Gu Letian frowned. If this continued, there would be no way out. They wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
But at this moment, a golden light flew from behind and hit the Pure Heart Lotus at an extremely fast speed.
The sudden change caught everyone off guard and they stopped their actions unconsciously. Even the two green water dragons paused their attacks, staring at the Pure Heart Lotus with their emerald green eyes.
The golden light hit the lotus head of the Pure Heart Lotus, and the nine lotus seeds inside were broken into pieces and flew out in several directions.
The two green water dragons were the fastest and bit the two lotus seeds closest to them respectively.
Following closely behind the Green Water Dragon were Senior Sister Jin from the Heavy Sword Peak and Senior Sister Tang from the Array Peak, as well as several figures rushing in from outside the cave.
Without exception, they all rushed towards Lianzi.
Gu Letian woke up as if from a dream, and ordered repeatedly, "Quickly grab the lotus seeds!"
As he spoke, he headed towards the nearest lotus seed.
The disciples of the Main Peak and the Weapon Peak also reacted. While they were fighting the Green Water Dragon, someone attacked the Pure Heart Lotus.
They all looked unhappy, but they had to join in the scramble for lotus seeds.
Xu Chunniang was also mixed in with the crowd, and rushed in following the figures of Senior Sisters Jin and Tang.
Now that you have come across a spiritual object like the Pure Heart Lotus, you will naturally fight for it.
Just as she was chasing after one of the lotus seeds, a figure came after her from the side and behind. It was none other than Dan Feng’s leading senior brother, Gu Letian.
Gu Letian was a man of many calculations. Seeing that the possibility of dividing the Pure Heart Lotus equally with the three peaks disciples had become a bubble and that the other contenders for the lotus seeds were all those with stronger strength in the inner sect, he chose the rather unfamiliar Xu Chunniang as his opponent. This way, his chances of success in seizing the Pure Heart Lotus would be greater.
Xu Chunniang heard the sound of wind behind her, and with a calm expression she quickened her pace, took a few steps forward, grabbed the Pure Heart Lotus in her hand, and immediately put it into her storage ring.
Gu Letian narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a dangerous coldness, "Hand over the Pure Heart Lotus, and I will spare your life."
