Chapter 170: Unexpected Disaster
In the middle of the canyon, on top of a huge rock in the middle, eight monks stood side by side, trying to defend them. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At their feet, there were dozens of demon beasts, all of which were of different shapes and abilities, but without exception, they were all launching a frantic attack on the monks on the rocks.
Among these demon beasts, there are those who are born with occult arts, and they are standing under the mountain and rocks and constantly performing this occult arts. And some of them don't have occult arts, but they are only powerful or have extremely high defensive power, and they don't rest, and while roaring again and again, they are also constantly crashing against the huge mountain rocks.
The mountain stone is huge, and the ancestor is three or four zhang long, like a small building, but under the siege of these dozens of demon beasts, it is actually shaking, making the eight monks on the mountain stone extremely frightened one by one.
As Ye Jing had predicted before, these eight monks were actually not familiar with each other, and they were originally scattered in various places immediately.
It's just that later, because no one knows, those demon beasts in the secret realm of Yunshan went berserk and fled in one direction, although these demon beasts did not deliberately chase and kill those monks, but with the sharp increase in the number of demon beasts, the situation that Ye Jing encountered naturally happened to other monks.
At the moment, these eight monks were either actively and passively gathered together by those demon beasts.
Although it is said that among the tens of thousands of monks who participated in the Wuji Sword Sect's new conference, it is inevitable that there are good and bad situations, and there are naturally many people who fish in troubled waters. But the vast majority of people, since they have the confidence to come to the Infinite Sword Sect to try, they always have some skills.
It's like these eight monks right now, they are not stupid.
After the initial surprise that they could quickly hunt demon beasts, these people also realized that as the strangeness of those demon beasts became more and more intense, they and the monks also fell into a potential threat one by one.
Whether it is these demon beasts fleeing for their lives, or the terrifying existence that forces these countless demon beasts to flee desperately, it has also become a threat to all the monks who participated in the trial.
Therefore, in this case, the monks who were supposed to fight and eliminate each other after meeting each other temporarily put aside their disputes, and after encountering each other, instead of fighting, they united one by one.
This is the origin of the current team of eight.
Of the eight, seven were sword-wielders, and only one monk, who seemed to be the oldest, wielded a long sword.
This is also normal.
The Wuji Sword Sect is a sword cultivation sect, and it can be said that it is yearned for by all sword cultivators in the entire world.
However, the Infinite Sword Sect's new recruitment conference did not limit the monks' origins or current paths.
This is also easy to understand, after all, the monks who participated in the Wuji Sword Sect's New Conference are still in the realm of the Gathering Spirit Period, but they are just a first glimpse of the path, and as far as the entire cultivation avenue is concerned, the foundation has not yet been thoroughly questioned, so no matter what exercises are practiced or what path they practice, the impact is not particularly great.
As long as he can stand out from it and join the Infinite Sword Sect, the Infinite Sword Sect will naturally be able to train him into a qualified sword cultivator.
However, there is no restriction on Rao is Wuji Sword Sect, but among the tens of thousands of monks who participated in the new conference, the monks who used swords as weapons still accounted for the vast majority.
The current situation among these eight people is roughly the situation of the entire tens of thousands of trial cultivators.
However, among these eight people, although there was only one monk who used the long knife, the highest cultivation among the eight people happened to be that person.
The monk's name was Yuan Jiehua, although he was the eldest of the eight, but in fact he was only twenty-four years old this year, and among the tens of thousands of trial cultivators, it was not small. However, this Yuan Jiehua has the cultivation of the Nine Grades of Gathering Spirits, according to this age, it is not too much, not only does it not exceed the age requirements set by the Infinite Sword Sect, but it can even be regarded as a middle level of qualifications.
This Yuan Jiehua will participate in the trial meeting of the Infinite Sword Sect for the second time, although this trial is not the same as the trial two years ago, but after all, it is also an experience. Coupled with Yuan Jiehua's age and strength, among these eight people, although he was not the initial organizer, after joining, he quickly became the temporary leader of this temporarily organized team.
And beside Yuan Jiehua, the other seven monks, five men and two women, were of different ages, the youngest was a teenager, his name was Shi Feng, but he was only fifteen years old, one year younger than Ye Jinglai, but his cultivation was also a little weaker than Ye Jing, and he was just a four-grade spirit gatherer.
At this moment, among the eight people, it was this young man Shi Feng who was the most nervous, and his face was the most uneasy.
This is not because of how weak this stone peak's strength is.
In fact, this young man named Shi Feng, since he dared to participate in the Wuji Sword Sect's recruitment conference alone at the age of fifteen, he naturally had his own uniqueness, and his swordsmanship was also extremely exquisite, plus he carried a lot of spirit runes on his body, and he was often able to cooperate with swordsmanship to perform it at the right time, if he really wanted to say that, compared to several other people who had beaten him at the age of several others, even if he was not strong, he was definitely not weak.
Moreover, at this moment, he was besieged by dozens of demon beasts, although this Shi Feng was indeed a little in a hurry, but he didn't know one of them, even Yuan Jiehua, who was the leader, was also a little difficult to support.
However, this Shi Feng's face was uneasy, and naturally there was a reason for him.
It's not that he was frightened because of the severity of the situation, but he actually caused this trouble.
The story is actually quite simple.
Ye Jing used to follow those demon beasts to avoid the unknown danger, and he had killed a lot of demon beasts casually, but when Ye Jing reached the number of fifty demon beasts hunted, he didn't deliberately kill those demon beasts.
But even so, Ye Jing just didn't do it deliberately, it was accidentally bumped into, as long as it was within Ye Jing's strength, Ye Jing didn't mind adding another opportunity for himself.
Ye Jing did this, and so did these eight people.
Especially after these eight people gathered together, the overall strength has grown, not to mention the unknown existence, at least the threat to them from those wandering demon beasts is greatly reduced, in this case, of course, these eight monks are also acting like Ye Jing.
It's just that, compared to Ye Jing, these eight people work together, their strength has increased greatly, and their confidence has also increased a lot, so compared to Ye Jing, who just hunts and kills demon beasts within the scope of his strength, these eight people are not so particular, and if they don't meet the demon beasts and go back to chase them, or even sometimes they don't encounter them, these eight people will also team up to kill those demon beasts.
Moreover, compared to Ye Jing, who only chose to kill a lone demon beast, these eight people were together, and their confidence increased greatly, but sometimes even groups of demon beasts dared to provoke them, so all the way, even if the eight people divided the results, they all gained a lot.
However, when these eight people are together, they only become bolder and more confident, but they do not become brainless.
The hordes of demon beasts, what they dare to provoke are naturally only those demon beasts whose number and strength are in the eight of them that can be dealt with together. There are more than thirty demon beasts besieging them at such a moment, and these eight people will naturally not go forward to look for death, if they see it, they will definitely choose to avoid it as soon as possible.
It's just that as the saying goes, how can you stand by the river without getting your shoes wet.
Although these eight people were careful all the way, they were still careless after all.
Not long before, they had been standing in the canyon, ready to hunt for prey.
This canyon is one of the entrances to the mountains and seas behind them, and many demon beasts will enter the mountains behind them through here, which is naturally a good place to set up ambushes and besiege them. Prior to this, the eight of them set up an ambush here for a morning, and they had already killed dozens of demon beasts, and the harvest was naturally not small, of course, these dozens of demon beasts were naturally not killed together, they all chose the single or less than ten small demon beast teams to move.
It is precisely because of this that after seeing that eight more demon beasts rushed into this canyon in a panic, and these eight demon beasts seemed to be underage, and their strength was not very strong, seeing that these eight people were merciless, they naturally launched an ambush at the moment.
Eight monks, against eight demon beasts is not a strong strength, no matter how you look at it, it is not a problem, if nothing else, if it is fast, it will take a quarter of an hour, and if it is slow, it will only be an hour at most, and Yuan Jiehua's eight people will be able to gather and annihilate these eight demon beasts here.
It's just that you only need to take a look at the situation of Yuan Jiehua and the eight people at the moment, and you know that things must have met with an accident.
It turned out that Yuan Jiehua and the eight of them had hunted dozens of demon beasts with a face, and their momentum was in full swing, and in the face of the eight demon beasts that suddenly broke into the canyon, they directly chose to do it, but they forgot to pay more attention to the surrounding environment before they started.
So, Yuan Jiehua and the eight of them just started with these eight demon beasts, and it didn't take long for them to see a large group of demon beasts break in again, and the next wave was a full twenty-seven or eight demon beasts.
This sudden group of demon beasts that broke over made Yuan Jiehua and the others frightened, and Yuan Jiehua was even sharp-eyed to find that the eight demon beasts that his eight people were besieging and killing at the moment were quite similar to the demon beasts led by the large wave of demon beasts later, but they were slightly smaller in size, and it seemed that even if it was not a family, at least it was a family.
This made Yuan Jiehua's heart cold again.
If these two groups of demon beasts have nothing to do with each other, then it is not too much for them to besiege and kill those eight demon beasts, as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke that large wave of demon beasts, and they are dodging some, maybe they can avoid this catastrophe.
But if these two groups of demon beasts only have some kind of relationship, then the problem is big.
Yuan Jiehua felt a chill in his heart, although he was still just guessing at the moment, he was also a little frightened, and he didn't have to weigh it at the moment, just taking advantage of the fact that the large wave of demon beasts had not really rushed to them, he hurriedly asked everyone to stop, not to hurt those demon beasts, and to avoid this large wave of demon beasts first.
Outside of Yuan Jiehua, seeing so many demon beasts suddenly coming over, everyone was a little frightened, after listening to Yuan Jiehua's words, whether they understood Yuan Jiehua's meaning or not, they also stopped selling one by one, that is, they wanted to get out of the battle.
But Shi Feng went wrong.
As the youngest member of the team, Shi Feng didn't have any other thoughts about Yuan Jiehua's words, and he also wanted to quit the battle at the moment.
It's just that the previous eight people picked an opponent, Shi Feng was opposite a demon beast with the shape of a lion, this demon beast has not yet grown up, and its strength is not too strong, Shi Feng has completely suppressed the demon beast from the beginning, if it weren't for the sudden emergence of so many demon beasts, Yuan Jiehua asked everyone to stop, Shi Feng is confident that as long as he insists on holding on for a while and a half, he will definitely be able to kill the demon beast to whom.
However, at this moment, since Yuan Jiehua asked everyone to stop, Shi Feng also stopped. Even if Yuan Jiehua wanted to hurt those demon beasts, Shi Feng didn't understand a little, and he was ready to do it, so he was ready to get rid of the opponent carefully.
It's just that Shi Feng wanted to get rid of the demon beast, but the demon beast suddenly erupted, and it actually entangled Shi Feng, making Shi Feng unable to get rid of it for a while.
And at this moment, with Yuan Jiehua's instructions, the rest of the people had already gotten rid of their opponents one by one, and then seeing that Shi Feng didn't seem to be able to get rid of his opponents, they were already ready to come over and help.
It's just that before Yuan Jiehua and the others rushed over to help, the demon beasts that were got rid of by Yuan Jiehua and the others were also pressing towards Shi Feng who had not yet gotten rid of them after losing their enemies.
A demon beast, even if it broke out, Shi Feng could still deal with it, but eight demon beasts surrounded him together, Shi Feng immediately panicked, and immediately warned Yuan Jiehua not to hurt those demon beasts first, just get rid of their words, forget about them, and display his most powerful sword moves.
I have to say that although Shi Feng is the youngest and his cultivation is not high, his swordsmanship is also outstanding, and his combat power is also good.
Although the demon beast that was entangled with Shi Feng had already erupted, Shi Feng's sudden outburst also suppressed the demon beast again in an instant.
It's just that after the stone crack once again gained the upper hand, the demon beast was still unwilling to retreat, seeing that the other demon beasts were also forced over, Shi Feng was anxious and frightened in his heart, naturally he couldn't care so much, a sword cold light was swung out, and before the demon beast let out a scream, he first heard Yuan Jiehua's panicked shout, "Don't kill it!" ”
It's just that Yuan Jiehua shouted a little late, Shi Feng's sword was swung out, and if he wanted to stop it, he couldn't take it back, and there was no accident that he killed the demon beast.
The demon beast died, and the remaining seven demon beasts that were originally going to surround suddenly stopped.
Shi Feng didn't have any smugness in his heart, but he felt a strong sense of unease, and when he looked back, he saw that among the large wave of demon beasts, the leader was a demon beast in the shape of a lion that was almost carved out of the same mold as the demon beast he killed.
The demon beast that led it also saw the scene of Fang Cai, and at the moment when the little demon beast was killed, it stopped, but then, it let out a shocking roar.
The next moment, dozens of demon beasts also roared out at the same time, thinking about Shi Feng and Yuan Jiehua in unison.
