Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 659 - 292: Sword Destroys Feather Transformation (Part 4)

Once the defensive formation shattered, Niu Dingtian and Hu Xiaotian guided the Niu Mo Upper Sect's followers, while Zi Yang Jiang Ruhai from the Infinite Sword Sect directed his warriors to assault the Feather Transformation Upper Sect's members.

Suddenly, the heavens filled with trails like shooting stars, bursts of vibrant colors lighting up the sky, turning the Feather Transformation Upper Sect's grounds into a spectacle of splendor.

However, under that stunning display, a deep and unerasable red hue lingered as the true essence.

Conflicts among sects prove ruthlessly brutal, and sympathy finds no place—it's a fight where one side must perish for the other to survive.

Without their Integration Realm Ancestor and battered severely by Ning Qi, the Feather Transformation Upper Sect stood no chance against the combined forces of the two rival sects.

Soon enough, thick smoke engulfed the whole Feather Transformation Upper Sect, and even the cries of agony faded into silence.

A blade from Qin Minghao had Fang Xian Dao thrust into the earth, clinging desperately to his final breaths.

Glancing up at Qin Minghao, he never imagined his end would come from a cultivator in the mid-stage of Void Path, especially since he himself had reached the peak of Void Path!

"Could you tell me if you've met our Ancestor?"

A final spark ignited in Fang Xian Dao's gaze as he trembled with the question.

Qin Minghao answered with icy detachment, "Why bother asking me? You'll see him soon enough in the afterlife!"

The sword slashed across in one swift motion, severing Fang Xian Dao's head, his eyes still holding a swirl of shock and doubt.

It appeared he grasped some hidden truth...

Yet who could have swiftly eliminated their Ancestor along with the four great figures from the Cyan Profound Upper Sect?

Niu Dingtian? Hu Xiaotian? Impossible! Their power falls short of that feat.

Sword Shocking? No way! His attack might fell one at best, despite its force.

Ning Qi? Could it be Ning Qi?

Ultimately, Ning Qi's visage surged into Fang Xian Dao's thoughts, bringing back the terrifying power of that last sword from Ning Qi.

That blade had been utterly ferocious, yet it hardly seemed capable of ending an Integration Realm Ancestor.

Still, deep down, Fang Xian Dao felt convinced that Ning Qi alone possessed the ability to take down the Ancestor...

His awareness faded away at last, carrying his final spark of realization and sorrow with it.

A sect enduring for hundreds of thousands of years, the Feather Transformation Upper Sect, fell to a cultivator who'd practiced for under a hundred years!

The group scoured the battlefield, claiming every bit of treasure from the Feather Transformation Upper Sect.

Followers from both sects soared toward Ning Qi, positioned at the Feather Transformation Upper Sect's mountain entrance, and laid their loot at his feet.

Niu Dingtian and Hu Xiaotian added their own hauls to the growing mound of goods.

As one of the Southern True Domain's top three powers, the Feather Transformation Upper Sect had gathered immense wealth across the ages, surpassing what Ning Qi took from the ruined Beixuan Upper Sect by a wide margin.

Even after heavy losses in the clash, the leftover riches dwarfed those of typical sects.

Observing the massive stack of treasures, Ning Qi gave a subtle nod.

Plundering remains the fastest route to gathering cultivation resources.

Across worlds, the mighty always seize vast fortunes by stripping the powerless.

Ning Qi rejected such a ruthless approach. He avoided preying on the vulnerable on purpose; instead, he'd triumphed over superiors while weaker and wielded justice against wickedness.

"Brother Niu, according to our earlier deal, we'll divide the spoils equally between our sects."

Facing this vast hoard of cultivation items, Ning Qi stated calmly.

These materials held little appeal for him now, yet as Sect Leader, he had to ensure his followers benefited, since they still craved such gains.

Niu Dingtian responded:

"Younger Brother Ning, our Niu Mo Upper Sect barely pitched in this round. Absent your aid, we might have faced total annihilation. How could we possibly take so much otherwise?"

Standing nearby, Hu Xiaotian chimed in:

"Indeed, Sect Leader Ning, removing the Feather Transformation Upper Sect's danger suffices for the Niu Mo Upper Sect."

The surviving Niu Mo Upper Sect demons showed eager eyes, yet all insisted they required none of the bounty.

The Sword Ancestor stayed quiet.

He placed complete faith in Ning Qi regarding resource sharing, backing whatever choice Ning Qi made.

Ning Qi paused briefly, then proposed:

"Here's the plan: We'll each duplicate the cultivation methods and divine arts from the Feather Transformation Upper Sect. Yours for Demon Race benefits, ours for Human Race advantages, and the rest split down the middle."

"Since the Southern True Domain demands more than just Niu Mo Upper Sect dominance, you must watch the Celestial Star Upper Sect closely—does this split work for you?"

From Niu Dingtian to the demons, all voiced deep thanks upon hearing it.

Naturally, the Infinite Sword Sect members felt thrilled with the arrangement.

The split happened right there between the sects, and later, Niu Dingtian extended another invite to visit the Niu Mo Upper Sect for festivities and talks on what's ahead.

Ning Qi considered it briefly before accepting.

With the Sect Protection Array he'd installed at the Infinite Sword Sect—strong enough to repel several Unity Realm assaults—and the Teleportation Gate allowing instant return for all, safety was assured.

Following the intense fight, relaxation beckoned, along with chances to learn about the Cyan Profound Immortal Sect in the Fuyao Realm through the Niu Mo Upper Sect.
