Then she furrowed her brow, "No, is your cultivation level at the fourth stage of Qi Cultivation, or the eighth stage of Qi Cultivation?"
Lu Yu's spiritual power within was particularly elusive, obviously at the sixth stage of Qi Cultivation, but the strength of the spiritual power appeared to be of the fourth stage. Upon closer feeling, it seemed to be the eighth stage.
Ling Yuyan shook her head and said, "Forget it, these aren't important."
"I have a favor to ask of you."
The three arrived at the military camp, where the City Lord of Beifeng City, the generals of Beifeng City, and representatives from some families were present.
Seeing Ling Yuyan bringing in a Martial Cultivator at the Qi Cultivation level, the crowd was somewhat puzzled.
Hearing Ling Yuyan say that this Qi Cultivation level Martial Cultivator could solve the issue of the demonic cave, the crowd showed strange and amusing expressions.
What ability does a mere Qi Cultivation level have to resolve the demonic cave, when a group of Core Formation Realm individuals can't manage it?
"Patriarch, can't you control your daughter? This is a military important area, how can you allow outsiders to enter?" asked the family clan leader, frowning.
Ling Jingtian wanted to speak, but Ling Yuyan interrupted, "Listen to me first before deciding whether or not to chase him out."
Glancing at his daughter's stubborn look, Ling Jingyun sighed inwardly and said to the others, "Since the young lady is willing to contribute ideas, everyone should listen before deciding."
"In respect to the Patriarch, I'll give you a chance. How can he help us resolve the demonic cave?" said the City Lord of Beifeng City.
Ling Yuyan seriously stated, "One major reason the Core Formation Realm experts' attempts failed is that the Heavenly Poison Centipede senses the threat of the Core Formation Realm and hides beforehand."
"Restricting the Heavenly Poison Centipede's movement, giving Core Formation Realm experts time to capture it, can resolve the demonic cave issue."
"We know what you're saying, but how to restrict the Heavenly Poison Centipede's actions? The sealing array has already compressed its range to eight hundred miles around Beifeng City, we can't compress further," said the Array Master.
"Using Divine Soldiers," Ling Yuyan swept her gaze across the crowd.
"Divine Soldiers?" The crowd was filled with confusion, asking, "What do you mean?"
Ling Yuyan explained, "Let Lu Yu carry your Divine Soldiers close to the Heavenly Poison Centipede, then you can control the Divine Soldiers remotely to restrict its movements, forcing it out for a kill."
Immediately, some looked at Ling Yuyan with dubious expressions, asking with a peculiar tone, "You should know what Divine Soldiers mean to us, right? What if an accident happens..."
"No accidents!" Ling Yuyan interrupted loudly, "Do you believe a Qi Cultivation level Martial Cultivator can snatch away your Divine Soldiers?"
The person was unable to refute, he himself thought it impossible for Lu Yu to seize his Divine Soldiers.
Divine Soldiers are connected with the Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator's mind and spirit, they can control them with a thought to shatter Lu Yu, there's no chance of being forcibly taken.
"Lu Yu has trained in the Earth Escape Secret Technique, allowing him to traverse freely within the subterranean world, making it easiest for him to find and approach the Heavenly Poison Centipede. As long as Lu Yu brings your Divine Soldiers near the Heavenly Poison Centipede, you can control the Divine Soldiers to restrict its movements, forcing it out from underground." said Ling Yuyan.
"Earth Escape Secret Technique?" The City Lord of Beifeng City glanced at Lu Yu's clothing, "It is indeed a rare secret technique, but without cultivating earth spiritual power, how can you perform the Earth Escape?"
Lu Yu hesitated for a moment, then produced a Spirit Pearl, causing several Core Formation Realm experts' expressions to change, with some showing greed.
Despite the disguise, the pure earth spiritual qi within the Spirit Pearl couldn't escape their perception.
Especially the vast quantity of spiritual qi in the Spirit Pearl, likely left by an earth elemental pinnacle demon, made it very useful for these Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivators who were unable to restrain their emotions.
"Cough cough!" Ling Jingtian and the City Lord of Beifeng City coughed simultaneously, the crowd's expressions returned to normal. Lu Yu understood that he was now targeted by Core Formation Realm experts, he felt a chill a moment ago.
With a stern face, Ling Jingtian said, "Lu friend, rest assured, if anyone here tries to rob your belongings, my family first disagrees!"
"I, the City Lord of Beifeng City, also disagree!" The City Lord reinforcingly remarked.
Some showed signs of reservations, with both the Ling family and the City Lord speaking up, they were reluctant to openly act against Lu Yu.
Seeing this, Lu Yu didn't say much more, using the Spirit Pearl to perform the Earth Escape, sinking into the ground before emerging again.
After witnessing his capability, the crowd had no objections to Ling Yuyan's proposal.
Disagreeing would risk the City Lord's disapproval, who was most concerned about the demonic cave. If handled poorly, he could lose his head as City Lord.
Core Formation Realm experts present revealed their Divine Soldiers, preparing to hand them to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu knew this time he had no choice but to go, with many Core Formation Realm experts seeking his help, why not make use of the opportunity. He said, "Wait a moment."
The City Lord looked at him, "What's the matter?"
After gathering his thoughts, Lu Yu said, "My current spiritual power is too weak to sustain the Earth Escape for long periods." ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt
Seeing Ling Yuyan attempting to speak, he quickly interjected before she could, "I have a Secret Technique to temporarily boost spiritual power through slaughter. By killing many demons, I can briefly increase spiritual strength, providing enough to sustain the Earth Escape until the demonic cave is found."
