Chapter 52: The Battle of Yanping I
"Maybe we should go back. β
Golini pondered Fano's suggestion and did not answer.
"We'll be found out by them when we look back, but if we keep waiting here, they risk getting in trouble. Seeing that Gorlini ignored him, Fano continued to exert pressure. "And even if it is discovered, it is not a big deal, His Majesty the King of the most boxers is starting to trouble us, but what are we afraid of?"
Reese, still wearing a brown-gray linen hood, agreed: "I agree with Fano, we can't take any chances, we can't afford to make any more mistakes now." Golini, I know you don't want to get too involved, but what if something happens to them? β
"U-turn. Gollini finally agreed, "You're right. We cannot allow that to happen again. β
Marco, who was in the car, heard the command, and immediately turned around and drove towards Yanping Town.
The carriage with the blue carriage ran as fast as it could on the road of the virtuous king. They had just run past the town of Yanping, stopping at the side of the road, and Reese observed the movement to the south, but never saw the shadow of the yellow carriage in the courtesy.
Fano in the carriage was a little uneasy, "I have a bad premonition. Either there's a very serious problem, or it's so serious that there is no trouble at all. β
Gollini smiled, "Boredom is probably the worst enemy for you. β
"That's right. Fano admitted with a bitter face. Reece continued to be silent, his eyes closed, as if to recuperate.
"Has our hunter found something?" said Fano to kick Reese, who was ignoring him, with the tips of his mocskinskin boots.
"Don't make a fuss!" Reece patted Fano on the knee, the grim expression on his face.
Fano saw this expression, full of anticipation. "There's a discovery, man. He whispered to Gollini with a smile.
The carriage drove past Yanping Town and was about to enter the Yanping Forest.
"There it is!" Reese opened his eyes and opened the window on the left at breakneck speed, "Get ready to stop, Marco!
Golini and Fano also became nervous. "My hunch is accurate, man, and I feel it. Fano sighed at Golini, "This time I have to play." β
Golini's expression stiffened: "I'm afraid I've overplayed." β
"Five, four, three, two, one!" Reese counted to "three" when the carriage had stopped, and the word "one" exited, and all four people got out of the car, Rees rushed to the front, the other three followed, and the four of them ran towards the Yanping forest at a fast speed.
The four of them had barely gone far into the forest when they smelled a scorching smell and a fishy smell mixed in the air.
"Winyanne is on top!" Marco exclaimed, "It's ......"
Before they finished speaking, the four of them saw a yellow shadow in the forest rushing out, and the shadow was still carrying a person on its shoulder.
"Great Elder Tie!" Gollini immediately greeted him, "a friend, not an enemy. Please follow me. β
The Grand Elder of the Vajra Temple looked at the four strangers who suddenly appeared suspiciously, but he still nodded, and Rees immediately turned around and ran towards an open area on the side of the road, with the others following closely.
On the road to King Xian, the carriage of the pavilion was still there, but the coachman was gone. Tie Huan saw the blue carriage and looked strange with a look of surprise, so he stopped, "Who are you?"
A strong fishy wind blew from the forest, rolling up the broken snow, and Golini brushed his blonde hair from his forehead and said, "Believe us, we are friends who stand by your side. β
"You're following me?"
Gollini pointed to the forest, "We have good intentions and are ready to fight it with you." β
"What is it?" Tie Huan looked at the Yanping Forest, and he could feel the huge qi source moving and getting closer and closer to them.
"That's a demon from the Boundless Abyss. Golini took a vigilant stance, "Guys, get ready, it's coming out!"
"I suggest you put this man down. Marco snorted at a nearby patch of grass.
As soon as Tie Huan walked over and put Xin Gang on the ground, a huge shadow had been snatched out of the forest.
It was a large humanoid creature that looked about three times as tall as Xin Gang, with no hair on its body, black scales, a head similar in shape to that of a lizardman, slender triangular eyes with red pupils, sharp teeth on each side of the mouth, and a tail wrapped in scales wagging behind it. The fishy smell came from this monster.
The horses pulling the cart panicked, and they neighed and spread their legs and began to run. Both carriages ran in the direction of Yanping Town.
The demon paid no attention to the carriage, and stretched out its right handβa huge claw with four fingers, and its hawkbeak nails long and sharp, reminiscent of a sharp pickaxeβand pointed at Golini, who stood at the front, and hissed in its throat.
"You, the trackers?" black smoke came out of its mouth as it spoke, and the monster could actually speak the lingua franca of Xianglong, but it sounded a little slurred. "Master wants me to be careful with the tracker, but I don't think that's necessary! Master must have gotten the wrong message, I could easily tear you to shreds!"
Fano shouted defiantly, "Your master is obviously much wiser than you are, do you know how bad you smell and smell worse than goblin!"
The monster let out a barrage of laughter in its throat: "I'm going to roast you like goblins in a minute, you'd better be better than goblins!"
It raised its arms in the air, roared demonstratively, and then opened its mouth to emit a strong fishy smell, and just as Fano was about to say something, Reese yelled, "Get out of the way!"
Fano reacted quickly, rolled on the spot, flashed to the side, and when he turned over, he was speechless, the snow he was standing on was burned black, and it was emitting unpleasant black smoke.
Golini looked at the monster in amazement. It was a shock even to them, even though they already knew the many secrets of the Abyssal Demons. However, for the Boxers - and indeed for most mortal creatures, this is a creature that only exists in rumors, and there is no shortage of records of the Boundless Abyssal Realm demons in the historical records of each race, if there are historians, but there has never been a record of their appearance on the Celestial Wind Continent in any of the tomes. Perhaps apart from Aghaza, the drinker of the Great Wilderness, many people thought he was a demon, but Golini didn't think so.
During their training, Delanos taught them how to fight demons, and gave each member of the Order something special: a weapon, either a unique skill, or a potential that was specifically developed based on the member's talents. They have practiced it on certain occasions, but never against the Abyssal Demons. Now the opportunity suddenly appeared in front of us, and it was a test that Venian had given her.
He forced himself to be still, he didn't have the sentient abilities of the monks, but he felt a slight tingling in his skin, and the deterrent power emanating from this demon was palpable. The Grand Elder of the Vajra Temple stood on his other side, and he saw the incredulous expression on the powerful monk's face. It was a monk with a deep cultivation, he would know how to deal with all this in front of him, and he was proficient in the art of dragon fist. Golini began to look forward to it, and the monk learned a powerful punch that was especially against demons.
The monster's attention was drawn to Fano, and it missed, became enraged, and began to pursue Fano. Fano was agile, and he used a technique similar to the Swift Movement to speed up his way south. The monster pursued him.
Golini is not worried about Fano, who is gifted with agility and speed, and has his own way of dealing with such a bulky monster. Reece turned and rushed into the forest, Marco following him, and Golini staying where he was.
"Great Elder, what are you doing to prepare?" he looked back at the Grand Elder of the King Kong Temple.
Tie Huan ignored him, he seemed to be preparing for gas accumulation. Gollini continued, "This demon can break into the mortal realm from the Boundless Abyss, there must be a portal or something. My guys went to find that door. Great Elder, we must unify our goals, if we don't destroy that portal, we will be in even greater trouble!"
"What about this monster? If you don't get rid of it as soon as possible, it will hurt a lot of innocent people. It is a major transportation artery. Tie Huan said.
"Fano was able to control it in a short time, and when he came back, it was time for us to destroy it. Trust me, we'll do our best. If anyone on this road is on its running path right now...... I can only express regret that there is nothing we can do. "Actually, he himself was not as confident as he said, but he had to make the monks understand their plans.
"So you're just watching it wander around?" there was a flame in the monk's words.
He raised his voice, "You must understand, Great Elder, that it is not the only demon that can enter the mortal realm! now our main task is to find that portal and close it! imagine what it would be like for hundreds, if not more, demons to run through the mortal realm!"
Tie Huan's brows froze, unable to speak.
He had no experience facing demons, Golini thought disappointedly. It is likely that the Great Elder will not have any fist techniques specifically aimed at demons. As the Grand Elder of the Sect Temple, he was already one of the most powerful beings, but it was likely that he didn't know as much about demons as Fano. Is there a record of the method of destroying demons in the texts of the Fist Folk Temple?
But it seemed that Tie Hwan quickly regained his composure and sat cross-legged on the ground. Perhaps years of practice will allow him to get rid of distracting thoughts in a short period of time, and he should know what he needs to do at the moment. He had to come up with the most powerful punches, right away.
There are two realms between the Boundless Abyss Realm and the Mortal Realm, and it will not be too easy for those demons to cross here, but with the first, there will be a second. In fact, the demon in front of him was by no means the first, the three-armed demon appeared in the mortal realm in the same way. Demons bring nothing but destruction to the mortal realm, or be destroyed.
He saw Marco running out of the forest and shouted at him, "Found it!" Rees is taking control of it, but we don't have enough strength to destroy it. β
No time. Golini yelled at Tie Huan, "Great Elder, you will use all the strongest fist skills you know later! If you are preparing, I hope you will prepare as soon as possible." We need ......"
A shrill shout interrupted him.
"It's back! Golini, it's a little smarter than I thought!"
Everyone looked south, and Fano ran back out of breath, looking like he couldn't hold on for long, the black demon was chasing after him.
"It has seen through our intentions and has come to stop you!" Fano shouted. "It's too hard to turn around and overtake it, I can't run!"
"The trouble is coming. Marco pointed to the south and said, "Look over there." β
Gollini looked to the end of the road to the south, where a carriage was heading towards them, and because it was still far away, it looked like a small black dot.
It's two...... There was another one behind.
This is a transportation artery. Such a tragedy seems inevitable.
Fortunately, the driver of the carriage was not blind, and they apparently saw the huge monster in front of them from a distance, and the front of the carriage turned around, and they fled back and forth.
Soon the two carriages disappeared from Golini's sight. He breathed a sigh of relief.
The demon didn't bother to pay attention to the fleeing carriage behind him, and just ran forward. It wasn't chasing Fano, it seemed to be ready to rush into the woods.
"Fuck it!Reece can't go away now!" Marco scolded, running to the middle of the road, the scar on his face making him look extremely wild, "Can't let it get close to Reese!Come on, son of a bitch monster, come and try the secret art of the druid!"
"Stop, Marko! You're no match for it!" Gollini ran towards Marco as fast as he could, and had to stop him!
"I have to try! It's too late!" Marco roared, and his thin body swelled suddenly, his limbs became*, his muscles bulged high, and his clothes tightened and cracked into pieces.
Marco transforms into a black bear about two feet tall.
Golini painfully found that he was not fast enough, a step short. He grabbed the black bear's fur, but before he could stop it, Marco roared and charged at the demon.
"This is my primordial fire! Die, demon!"
"No, Marco!," Fano exclaimed, but he couldn't stop it, and he couldn't.
The black bear slammed into the demon at breakneck speed. Marco turned himself into an arrow off the string.
Gollini understood deeply what it meant to be primordial fire. Druids are loyal to and guard nature from destruction, and they can use the power of nature to transform into animal form. The Primordial Fire is the amount of energy that the Druid needs to transform between humans and animals, and each transformation consumes the Primordial Fire, after which the Druid must continue to practice in order to recover.
And Marco had apparently unleashed all of the Primordial Fire, and this tremendous energy had only one purpose.
He will die with this demon.
"Bang"!
The black bear collided with the demon in the air, making a dull sound. It was like a stone hitting a tough cowhide drum.
The black bear fell from mid-air and fell to the ground, reverting to its human form, and the primordial fire that continued his bear form vanished.
