A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 441: Chapter 377: Relaxed Manner, Void Spirit Life-Seizing Battle Array

The so-called method of sustaining warfare through battle was a concept Qi Ping developed after slaying Ling Qianjue.

Initially, it was to deal with the Nascent Soul and Divinity Transformation Cultivators coveting the Tier Four Spirit Vein of the Qingtian Realm, preparing to nurture and quickly enhance the world with the essence of flesh and blood.

Later, after awakening as an Earth Immortal Druid, he did not abandon this idea. Instead, when researching the nature and laws of the world, he sometimes explored the connection between the essence of flesh and blood and the essence of the world.

So now, Qi Ping has a very clear understanding of the essence within, unlike before when he could only use it coarsely.

As a result, Qi Ping has long since developed a Magic known as the "Spirit Devouring Technique."

[Spirit Devouring Technique: A mysterious method capable of extracting the core essence from living beings, greatly cleansing its resentment and the imprint of wills, and then integrating the essence of the living beings into the world at maximum efficiency....]

With this magic, Qi Ping has enough confidence to sustain warfare through battle, assisting his Earth Immortal Druid in achieving a new breakthrough.

However, this magic has two drawbacks.

First, the magic itself cannot completely erase the living imprint. Once too much essence is devoured, even Qi Ping cannot fully foresee the results.

This is a highly unstable factor, and it can only be thoroughly eradicated through prolonged erosion.

The second is that refining the essence of living beings will erode one’s own fortune. Although this essence and spirituality are absorbed by the world itself, and Qi Ping is now an Earth Immortal Druid with great fortune, he still can’t completely avoid this issue.

Fortunately, this time the main targets are the Demon Race and Demon Race beings outside the Star Sea Continent. According to ancient records, there is a chance to seize fortune by slaying these invaders.

Therefore, refining these invading beings by Qi Ping should not erode his own fortune, or even if it does, it would not surpass the fortune gained from slaying the invading beings.

Overall, in this invasion war, the benefits of the Spirit Devouring Technique, as a method of sustaining warfare through battle, far outweigh its drawbacks.

Moreover, in this scale of threat, Qi Ping has no other choice.

...

"Senior Bee, we shall take our leave now. We will investigate these matters thoroughly. If there’s anything, feel free to contact us directly!"

After making a fist salute to Qi Ping, these leaders of various forces left with complex yet delighted expressions, leaving only Meng Tianqi behind.

"Senior Bee, when do we begin the power testing?" Meng Tianqi asked, looking at Qi Ping.

At this moment, he was very curious about what level of combat power Qi Ping, an exceedingly rare Earth Immortal, would possess without borrowing the power of the world.

"Let’s do it here; it won’t take up too much of your time, Fellow Daoist Meng!"

Qi Ping said calmly and gestured for Meng Tianqi to proceed.

"Alright! I apologize for any offense!"

After saluting Qi Ping, Meng Tianqi’s eyes suddenly sharpened, and terrifying power erupted from his body!

The Profound Celestial Divine Body unleashed an exceptionally grand and blazing aura, with the intent of life and death swirling around, and the mere aftermath of the aura forced Lin Yue and Wang He to retreat.

"What a terrifying aura and pressure, worthy of being one of the top Void Refining Cultivators on the Star Sea Continent!"

"Senior Meng’s mastery of the laws is incredibly strong!"

Lin Yue and Wang He were filled with shock in their eyes.

But what shocked them even more was Qi Ping, the headmaster. For, such a powerful cultivator also had to bow before Qi Ping!

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Meng!"

Qi Ping said, his eyes immediately sharpened, and then an extremely mysterious Five-Colored Palm struck towards Meng Xuanqi...

...

This battle did not last very long.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Qi Ping finished the test, and Meng Tianqi also took his leave.

When Meng Tianqi left the Qingtian Realm, the seventeen leaders waiting outside quickly approached him, their eyes full of curiosity.

"Fellow Daoist Meng? Without using Earth Immortal Power, what is Senior Bee’s actual strength?"

They were also eager to know what level of power the mysterious Bee Daoist would possess outside the Qingtian Realm.

Seeing the shock in Meng Tianqi’s eyes, they had already faintly received the answer.

"Fellow Daoists, please don’t make it difficult for this old man. I have promised Senior Bee to keep this matter confidential. What I can say is that we should be glad to have chosen to stand on Senior Bee’s side. Otherwise, we don’t know if Senior Bee can defeat that person from the Celestial Dragon Continent, but we would most likely be left alone, or even meet our demise!"

"Let’s focus on completing the tasks assigned by Senior Bee. If we win this battle, reaching the Integration Stage or even higher realms would no longer be a mere wishful thought..."

After leaving these words, Meng Tianqi’s figure disappeared from here in the blink of an eye, leaving the seventeen people looking at each other.

They hadn’t expected Bee Daoist to keep them in suspense on this matter. However, judging by Meng Tianqi’s reaction, they had already roughly guessed the outcome, tacitly understanding that Bee Daoist’s own power was also exceedingly formidable.

Having ascertained the general outcome, the remaining seventeen individuals took their leave.

"Farewell, fellow Daoists. Please take care from now on, and let’s communicate timely and openly!"
