Sneaking into a realm that wasn't their own, surrounded by powerful enemies and beset by danger at every turn, Ling Tian and the others naturally wouldn't reveal their full strength. That would mislead the enemy and could prove extremely useful at a critical moment—as it did now.
Some of them used the Golden Buddha Image secret art. Ling Tian and Fairy Meng Shang used it as well, and with Little Swallow's help, they had little trouble tearing a hole in the enemy's defenses. What followed was simple.
When the head of the great sect saw their defenses breached and his disciples cut down, his eyes nearly split with fury. The Po Family members still hadn't arrived to reinforce them, which only made him angrier. He began contacting his sect members and ordering them to turn back and help.
That was exactly why Ling Tian and the others had deliberately drawn the Po Family members away: they wanted to keep them from reinforcing the next sect in time. That way, those sects would grow suspicious of the Po Family and stop trusting them, then recall their own disciples from the front lines.
That would accomplish Ling Tian and the others' goal.
Before long, the great sect's disciples began returning and joined the defense. At last, they managed to hold off Ling Tian and the others' attack. As more and more disciples returned, they began to counterattack.
Of course, with the Yin Yang Bagua Plate protecting them, and with Ling Tian and the others able to retreat a great distance, these people's attacks posed little threat. Besides, Ling Tian and the others were already attacking as they withdrew.
Finally, after a little more than half a stick of incense, the Po Family members arrived—fashionably late. Ling Tian and the others didn't hesitate.
