Chapter 57: The Storm is Coming
Everywhere the eye can see, there are demon beasts, shadow bloodthirsty leopards, sand demon centipedes abound, and even the rampaging demon scorpions far away in the valley of the storm are occasionally seen, but the difference is that they are no longer swarming up brainlessly, but in an orderly and hierarchical manner to attack upwards in batches, and there are also groups of demon beasts next to them to dig sand and stones into the low-level quicksand piles, as a stepping foot for the impact team.
As expected, this trick worked exceptionally, and every time the manipulated quicksand vortex formed, a large number of flying sand and rocks would be thrown into the hole, and once the quicksand subsidence momentum slowed down, there would be groups of monsters rushing straight over as if they were walking on the ground.
In no moment, the demon beasts that were ready to attack under the sand dunes before were less than half, and then looking at the IQ of the sand dunes, due to the witty teamwork of the beast group just now, they did not lose much combat power, and occasionally one or two were buried, and more companions behind them would use their corpses as pedals to run upwards unimpeded.
At this moment, Chen Lingqian's forehead at the top of the sand dune was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and the continuous casting of magic had caused a lot of burden on her body and spirit, looking at the endless stream of demon beasts climbing up, she took a deep breath, waved her hands at the same time, and between the dancing sleeves, two completely different lights bloomed, dark brown and goose yellow complemented each other, and then disappeared into her fingertips together, turning into two streamers and smashing into the ground under her feet.
With the infusion of magic, followed by countless vine branches growing from under the hard earth, the vine branches broke through the solid stones, went up along the sand dunes, entwined and bound the past demon beasts one by one, and the stones scattered because of the impact were also weathered into fine sand, and the fine sand flowed and gathered, reforming the quicksand group, "Boom, boom!" The quicksand rises like a surging wave, slapping towards the immobile beasts, only to see a group of demon beasts facing the overwhelming quicksand, although they try their best to resist, but they are still powerless to see themselves buried under the sand, and occasionally break out of the siege, they will immediately be unexpectedly broken out of the vine branch and dragged into the abyss of the sand.
After some fighting, seven or eight out of ten of the hundred or so demon beasts around the sand dunes had been removed, and the rest no longer dared to approach easily, but Chen Lingqian's face turned even paler due to the excessive consumption of demonic energy.
At this moment, her expression was gloomy, and she did not have the slightest sense of relief when she repelled the beasts, but she looked even more dignified, because from her perspective, she could see that at the intersection of the horizon and the sky, there were countless monsters that were swarming one after another, and even if they were so far away, the ground under their feet would tremble slightly.
......
"Why is there no movement?" Chen Hu stared at the delicate figure fluttering on the sand dunes in the distance, and was a little puzzled, since the beasts retreated, wasn't it just the right time to lead them to the demon wolf? Why was she indifferent at this time.
Thinking like this, he immediately glanced at the demon wolf on the other side, only to see that the few middle-level demon beasts that rushed forward to fight with the demon wolf before had long since lost their bones, leaving only blood all over the ground, while the low-level demon beasts that followed followed continued to retreat and wail, and then looked at the demon wolf, the shadow that was empty because of the injury before had already been filled by the blood that seeped from the corpse.
Seeing this, without waiting for the team leader to answer, he continued, "I will meet that beast for a while, and if I run to Miss Chen, it will be dangerous. With that, he stepped out and rushed to the battlefield.
The leader raised his head noncommittally, and also looked at the lonely figure standing on the top of the sand dune, his long flowing hair swaying with his dress, and it was even more sacrosanct under the golden sun.
Ignoring Chen Hu, who disappeared, he just muttered to himself, "Well, I'm going too, otherwise I'm afraid it'll be too late..."
......
"No, we can't delay any longer. On the sand dunes, Chen Lingqian looked at the demon beasts that were gathering and did not grow, and quietly felt the increasingly strong vibrations of the ground, thinking so.
At that moment, there was no longer any delay, the arm was slightly raised, the only little energy left in the body surged again, and the interconnection of the veins came instantly, just when everything was ready to build a tree bridge, there was a sudden strange sound behind him, the sound was extremely slight, and it was not until he got close that he was discovered by Chen Lingqian, Chen Lingqian's original magic that was about to be completed was interrupted by a sudden accident, and then he took a few steps back one after another, and at the same time his arm was raised in the air, and the magic that had not yet been dissipated hurriedly condensed a thin layer of protective barrier.
"Poof!" With a bang, her whole person was unstable, and she almost fell from the top of the sand dune, before she could stabilize her body, "Click...", followed by the cracks in the light mask around her body, and before she had time to think about it, she jumped into the air, out of the attack range of the demon beast, and as soon as she left the place, the light mask around her body completely shattered.
Her body was still slowly rising, and Chen Lingqian, who had temporarily gotten rid of the crisis, had a chance to breathe and carefully observe the situation on the ground.
It turned out that the one who had just attacked him was the Dark Feathered Serpent, a creature that generally lives underground or in caves and baths because of its preference for cold and damp environments, and its blue-black scale armor is as solid as a rock; Indestructible, the head is full of tentacles, which looks extremely majestic, a pair of scarlet triangular eyes, which makes people feel frightened, the clear and translucent venom dripping from the fangs will collapse at the touch, and the food will die, the letter spit out keeps making a creeping sound, and a pair of blue wings born from the back are proudly in the sky.
The adult dark feathered snake is generally ten meters long, and the level is even more than a high-level or even a super demon beast, and the body in front of him is only three or four meters long, giving people a sense of power and oppression is still a little insufficient, obviously it is only a juvenile, at most it has reached the level of an intermediate demon beast, but even so, it should not be taken lightly, once it is entangled, it will be nine deaths and one life, either death or injury.
At this time, it was staring at itself from the ground with its cruel eyes, and from that look, it was full of unwillingness and resentment, which also made Chen Lingqian, who was still in the air, secretly surprised, why whether it was the previous demon wolf or this dark feathered snake, they all had such a high level of wisdom, and ordinary demon beasts only reached a high-level or even surpassed a high-level existence would have the ability to think and judge at the beginning of their minds, and even if they attacked other creatures, they only relied on instinct, or obeyed the orders of the clan leader.
As the upward trend slowly slowed down, Chen Lingqian also observed the situation on the ground, so she no longer hesitated, her toes tapped, and layers of magic halos rippled out of thin air, and then her body sank down hard, swooping towards the demon wolf and Chen Hu who were fighting...
