"Here are five hundred and sixty of the golden sandsifter fruit." The Grovekeeper delivered one gleaming golden fruit after another to Ji Ning, who waved his hand and accepted them.
"Darknorth, give me a hand!" Winesage's voice rang out within Ning's mind.
"Eh?" Ning frowned as he turned to look at the furious battle raging off in the distance. There were more than twenty Daolords encircling and attacking Winesage, but Winesage was so incredibly strong that he was able to ensure his enemies weren't able truly work together flawlessly. Each time, Winesage 'only' had to deal with ten of them at most.
"What's wrong, Darknorth?" Ninedust asked.
"It's Winesage. He asked me for assistance." Ning smiled. "He's just barely hanging on right now, but with so many Daolords attacking him he's unable to remain within the teleportation diagram for ten seconds. There's no way for him to leave the third world, much less Crimsonwave Temple."
