Chapter 339: Watching the Fire Across Mountains

the tags as it was empty. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!As for this almost complete transformation, Lu Xia Tian attributed it to practice making perfect, but that was...Although there were already six alien cultivators holding fort in the Fengling Stone Mine, recklessly charging in would certainly lead to a disastrous end. However, there was still a chance of survival if they went in, while staying out meant facing twelve mounted warriors and twelve high-ranking spirit birds. Their numbers were dwarfed by four times that of their opponents. The situation outside was dire; even with the awareness that entering the mine was a gamble with near certain death, the Shangqing Sect cultivators had no other options at this point.

"Get out of the way!" Another late-stage Foundation Establishment black-robed elder let out a roar and threw a crimson bead into the mine. His face contorted in pain, but at this moment, for the sake of survival, he couldn't afford to care so much.

With a deafening boom, the fiery red beads exploded with thunderous roars. Screams echoed through the mine, indicating that several extraterrestrial cultivators had been hit.

>“Kill!” When a rabbit is cornered, it will bite, let alone these Foundation Establishment cultivators. Once pushed to their limits, they will resort to any means necessary. To capture the remaining few, they would have to pay a heavy price.

Benefitting from the explosion of the red bead just now, several cultivators at the late stage of foundation establishment disregarded the raging flames within and rushed in, bolstering their spirit shields. The last one, who was half a step slower, was still pierced in the back leg by an arrow from the cavalry warrior. He could only howl in pain and crawl into the mine with his injured leg.

Inside the mine, a fierce and brutal clash of fighting and screams erupted. However, with dust swirling everywhere and darkness engulfing the cavern, it was impossible for those outside to discern the course of the battle beyond the snarls and occasional cries of pain.

Seeing this, the Dai brothers and several others who had been eager to fight couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. At least in terms of strength, these Shangqing sect cultivators were stronger than them. They still ended up like this; if nothing unexpected happened, annihilation was only a matter of time. If it wasn't for Lu Xiaottian's reminder and Cao Haihua's caution before, those who had fallen into misfortune should have been them. Perhaps many of them would have already died at the hands of the Flying Rider tribe.

What should we do

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Dai Bai's face turned cold as he shifted his gaze to Cao Haihua and Lu Xiaoteng. At this point, even if they were discovered by the Flying Cavalry Tribe cultivators, it would be a very dangerous situation. Judging by the current state of the Flying Cavalry Tribe cultivators, they still had more than enough power to exterminate them.

"Wait!" Lu Xia Tian and Cao Hai Hua said in unison, although they were both cultivators from the望月界, when it came to life or death, no one would care about the fate of the Shangqing sect cultivators. Life was their own, put yourself in their shoes, if they were in trouble, strangers wouldn't necessarily help them either. The Shangqing sect cultivators would likely do the same if the situation were reversed.

"Uncle, what do we do now" At that moment, a black eagle soared silently through the air. One of the burly men asked the oldest and stoutest man at the head.

“Wait!” The burly old man’s eyes narrowed like hawks, and the decision he made was the same as Lu Xiaoteng and Cao Haihua on the ground.

“But there are still cultivators from our Heavenly Firmament Realm down in the mines. Since we’re an alliance, shouldn’t we go down and save them” A young man beside him said with some confusion. In the Flying Rider Tribe, they were taught from a young age to unite and support each other when facing powerful monsters on the Sky Dome Grassland. Therefore, their sense of unity was far stronger than that of cultivators from other sects. It’s just that at this time, the elderly man who had always been respected made a decision contrary to his usual practice.”

“Wu Lianhan, you need to understand that even in the Heavenly Realm, we have quite a few enemies. Right now, it's just a temporary alliance. Whether we conquer the Moon Viewing Cultivation World or suffer defeat and retreat, we must remain as we always have: enemies are still enemies. Our current allies are only putting aside their grievances temporarily because of the alliance, but they haven't truly let go. Although our Flying Cavalry Tribe is renowned, we are ultimately too small in number. Especially the flying creatures, they are passed down through generations to reach our current size, making replenishment difficult. Our advantage lies in the air. Once we descend to the ground, we are using our weaknesses to attack our opponents' strengths. Not only can we not suppress them, but we will also suffer heavy casualties.As for the alliance side, our Flying Cavalry warriors are already responsible for such a large area, running themselves ragged. What else do they have to say” The burly elder snorted and said.

"Those Skywatchers on the ground were quite powerful just now. Could it be that they're really going to kill all our Heavenly Realm cultivators" Another flying cavalry warrior said with a hint of unwillingness.

"Inform their sect to send reinforcements. Our people can't afford further losses." The burly elder had a heart of iron. Though he could hear screams from within, he remained unmoved.

After a long time, the fierce fighting sounds inside the mine gradually subsided. No disciples of Shangqing Sect came out. It was evident that all the alien cultivators had been slain within the mine. Even the Shangqing disciples who survived the fight dared not face the terrifying attacking power of the Flying Cavalry Tribe.

But the Flying Cavalry weren't leaving. They stayed behind, blocking the battlefield to prevent any Pure Light monks inside the mine from escaping while they were gone.

In less than an hour, another group of twelve Foundation Establishment cultivators arrived. They looked up expressionlessly at the flying cavalry tribe circling in the air, letting out a grunt without saying a word. They didn't show any gratitude for the report either. The pungent smell of blood inside the mine spoke volumes. Although these members of the flying cavalry tribe had reported it, they were, in a way, deemed as having abandoned their responsibility.

The burly old man didn't mind the visitor's coldness, he just bowed slightly, "My tribe just fought a hard battle and still need..."

Before the burly old man could finish his words, a crimson eagle-shaped firework rose into the sky from afar. The mounted warriors present changed their expressions slightly.

"Urgent matters call for the clan, farewell!"

“How could these riders from the flying cavalry tribe be in such a hurry” Wu Yan saw twelve black eagles speeding through the sky, faster than when they came, with an air of anger and frustration. She couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Judging from the current situation, the Feiqi Tribe's cultivators seem to be quite wary of the allied forces. Something must have happened to their own tribe that would cause them such anger."

“The members of the Feiqibing Tribe are already so formidable, especially when they fight in a squad. Their combat power is terrifying. They come and go as they please, who could possibly hurt them” Yan Feng said in bewilderment.

“The world is vast, and there are many talented people. Although the Feiqi tribe is formidable, they are not invincible. We just haven't encountered them before. However, looking at it this way, our opportunity has come.” Cao Haihua smiled confidently and exchanged a glance with Lu Xiaottian. The two smiled knowingly. Although he had wanted to establish his own authority and had some reservations about Lu Xiaottian before, it seemed that Lu Xiaottian had no intention of vying for the position of leader, and he was extremely composed in handling matters. Compared to the Dai brothers, he was undoubtedly several steps ahead. Working together, the two seemed more suitable.”the Shakong Ghost Ants swarming beneath the void to stir uneasily.The Ghost Ant King saw the golden crow in the void, and his face changed drastically. At his level, he could naturally sense more thin...
