Chapter Twenty-Three: The End
The yellow sand is all over the sky, and the remnant sun is like blood.
The battle between the monks of the Zhou family and the poisonous fire scorpion swarm dyed the yellow sand on the battlefield ground into a maroon, and most of the blood was shed from the poisonous fire scorpions, but some of them were spilled from the wounds on the Zhou monks.
For this battle, the Zhou family has been preparing for two years, not only Zhou Xuanhao, a second-order high-grade alchemist, has been refining a large number of second-order detoxification elixirs since two years ago, but Zhou Dan and Zhou Xuanyu, the two second-order high-grade talisman makers, have also used the talisman spirit materials collected in the clan to make a large number of second-order spirit runes and distribute them to the hands of everyone participating in the battle.
Now, with these spirit runes and elixirs prepared in advance, although it is inevitable that some people will be injured in the attack of demon beasts, they can always take the elixir to detoxify and heal their injuries as soon as possible with the help of others, so that there will be no casualties.
After the battle lasted for about half an hour, most of the hundreds of first-order poisonous fire scorpions were killed, and only a few second-order poisonous fire scorpions with a small number of first-order poisonous fire scorpions were still resisting.
"Mother, the child is here to help you. ”
On the battlefield in the east, after Zhou Yang cleaned up most of the first-order poisonous fire scorpions, he did not chase and kill the remaining fish that slipped through the net, but quickly went to his mother Lin Yuting to help.
Lin Yuting is also only a cultivator of the seventh layer of Qi training, although because she has stayed in the seventh layer of Qi training for more than 20 years, her mana is much stronger than Zhou Yang, who has just stepped into the seventh layer of Qi training, but because the exercises she has practiced are not good at fighting, her actual combat strength may not be able to catch up with Zhou Yang.
Zhou Xuanhao and Zhou Xuanyu also knew this, so the two second-order poisonous fire scorpions that Lin Yuting put to deal with were both second-order inferior grades, and with their cultivation, it would not be a problem to contain these two demon beasts.
However, with one enemy and two enemies, plus she had to deal with the melee attacks of those first-order poisonous fire scorpions, Lin Yuting's mana was consumed very quickly, and in less than half an hour, most of her mana was consumed, and there were even drops of sweat on her forehead, which seemed quite difficult.
Seeing Zhou Yang coming over to support at this time, she was also relieved, and hurriedly bit her tongue to cheer up her spirits and shouted: "Good son, you help your mother to restrain that beast first, and then come to help you when you kill this beast for your mother." ”
After speaking, her consciousness moved, and she took back the flying sword that was attacking the other second-order poisonous fire scorpion, and the two flying swords, one green and one blue, flew towards the other second-order poisonous fire scorpion together.
"Hey, hey, mother, don't underestimate the child, let's compete to see who kills the demon beast first!"
Zhou Yang laughed loudly on his face, and directly sent four "armor-piercing daggers" to kill the second-order poisonous fire scorpion that his mother had let out.
This poisonous fire scorpion has already consumed a lot of demonic power by Lin Yuting, and the "poisonous fire bomb" spewing out of its mouth is not as powerful as before, and it can't pose any threat to Zhou Yang, who has the [Silver Gang Shield] magic weapon to protect him.
And Zhou Yang's four "armor-piercing daggers" are all second-order high-grade magic weapons, which are sharper than ordinary second-order high-grade flying swords, and each attack can cut a wound on its hardest scorpion pincers, so that after a few moves between the two, the killer weapon of the poisonous fire scorpion is forced out.
Sou!
But seeing a flash of red light in mid-air, the poisonous needle on the scorpion tail of the poisonous fire scorpion had already broken through the air and attacked Zhou Yang's chest.
The flight speed of this poison needle was extremely fast, much faster than the second-order high-grade magic weapon of Zhou Yang's imperial envoy, and it had already exceeded the speed of sound.
But the poisonous fire scorpion obviously didn't know that Zhou Yang's silver shield magic weapon had an automatic protector function, and he himself had been guarding against this move.
Therefore, as soon as the poisonous needle shot at him, he was immediately blocked by a silver shield, and he also took advantage of the moment when the poisonous fire scorpion shot out the poisonous needle, and seized the opportunity to decisively send four "armor-piercing daggers" into his body from behind.
Sizzle-
After a miserable hiss, the body of the poisonous fire scorpion was split into four by four "armor-piercing daggers" from the inside out, and he was killed on the ground.
At this time, Lin Yuting's side also happened to combine their two swords and slash at the two scorpion pincers of the other poisonous fire scorpion, and slashed it to the ground with the head on the spot.
Seeing that Zhou Yang actually killed the demon beast one step ahead of herself, Lin Yuting smiled with relief on her face, and sighed happily: "My son has really grown up!"
When Zhou Yang heard his mother's words, he was indescribably happy in his heart, and couldn't help shouting: "Mother, you can rest first, and the child will help his father and stepmother." ”
Before the shouting fell, he energetically sent the magic weapon to help his father Zhou Xuanhao.
Seeing this, Lin Yuting smiled again, her son is so sensible, she can't be looked down upon as a mother.
Immediately, he also cheered up his spirits and lifted his double swords, and followed to help Zhou Xuanyu, a good sister.
Half a quarter of an hour later, except for a few of the poisonous fire scorpions in the east who escaped by chance, all the rest died at the hands of Zhou Yang's family.
And after they dealt with the poisonous fire scorpion swarm on their side, they just rested for a while, and immediately went to other sides to help the other clansmen.
With the help of Zhou Yang and the four of them, the other Zhou family monks also quickly established an advantage, and soon worked together to eliminate most of the poisonous fire scorpion swarm.
So far, except for a few poisonous fire scorpions who did not come to participate in the battle or escaped by luck, hundreds of poisonous fire scorpions in the entire poisonous fire scorpion group have all died in this sandy land.
"The poisonous fire scorpion group has been extinguished, everyone will rest here first, the elder of the ninth layer of Qi cultivation and Xuan Tai will gather here with the old man, and I will go together to help the old patriarch kill the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King]!"
When the battle was over, Old Man Zhou Quan didn't care about resting, and immediately summoned the other six family elders and Zhou Xuantai, the family's only formation mage now, to another battlefield.
The battle between the foundation building stage monks and the third-order demon beasts was extremely dangerous, and only these ninth-level qi cultivators could barely help.
However, even if a ninth-level Qi cultivator rashly intervenes in the life-and-death battle between a foundation building period monk and a third-order demon beast, there is a great risk of falling, so the old man Zhou Quan specially brought Zhou Xuantai, the only formation mage in the family now.
Zhou Xuantai is the second oldest in the "Xuan" generation, as the only formation mage of the Zhou family now, although he only has the eighth-level cultivation of Qi training, but he has a set of second-order high-grade formation "Eight Gates Golden Light Array" refined by Zhou Qian, the great elder of the Zhou family.
The "Eight Gates Golden Light Array" is a trapped formation in the formation, as long as there are eight Qi cultivation ninth-level monks holding the formation flag to jointly lay down this formation, and then there is a formation mage in the center to adjust, even the monks in the early stage of foundation building can be trapped in a short period of time.
In fact, Zhou Minghan, as a seventh-layer foundation cultivator, could slowly kill the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] even if he fought alone.
But if the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] wanted to escape, in this vast sea of sand, Zhou Minghan would not have much confidence in leaving the other party behind.
And once the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] is allowed to escape, he will definitely take revenge on the monks and mortals of the Zhou family stationed on this side of the Red Flame Iron Vein in the future.
Therefore, in order to be foolproof, Zhou Minghan must have a helper to help him trap the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] for a period of time, and then use thunderous means to completely bombard it.
Because Zhou Minghan deliberately led the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] to a distant place during the battle, the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] could not grasp the situation of the scorpion group in time.
It wasn't until it saw the old man Zhou Quan and eight other humans appearing that it realized that something might have happened to the scorpion group.
This discovery made it furious, and when it gave up Zhou Minghan, a difficult opponent, it pounced on the old man Zhou Quan and the other nine people who rushed to the dust.
"Good time!"
Seeing that the third-order demon beast of the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] was rushing towards the eight of them, Old Man Zhou Quan and the other eight people were not surprised, and hurriedly held the formation flag of the "Eight Gates Golden Light Array" and launched the formation.
The formation was activated, and eight thick golden rays of light instantly rose from the eight-pole array flag, turning into a huge golden light cage that trapped the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] in the middle, and no matter how much it collided, it couldn't break out of the range of the golden light.
"Okay, you hold on, just give the old man half an hour!"
The old patriarch in the sky, Zhou Minghan, had a happy face, and hurriedly stopped his sword light and prepared to make a lore move.
Half an hour later, when the old man Zhou Quan and the others were soaked in sweat, and the golden light cage began to shake violently, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan carefully prepared a killing move for half an hour, and finally used it.
"Evil beast, suffer death!"
He only heard the old patriarch's beard and hair open in anger, and with a push of his hands forward, a lilac fireball with a glimmer of silver thunder and lightning turned into a parabola and flew out of his hand, shooting straight towards the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] in the golden light cage.
Sizzle!
As if sensing something, the eyes of the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] in the golden light cage flashed with extreme fear for a moment, and the hissing sound in his mouth was unprecedentedly sharp.
Just this hissing sound made the heads of the eight people including the old man Zhou Quan hurt, and the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose all overflowed with blood.
However, the eight people also knew success or failure, and at this moment, they just endured the discomfort and desperately injected the remaining mana in their bodies into the formation flag to maintain the power of the formation, no matter how much the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King] struggled, they couldn't take a step out of the golden light cage.
Finally, the lilac fireball that flashed with silver thunder and lightning finally landed on the [Poisonous Fire Scorpion King].
Boom –
In the vast sea of sand, there was a roar like the collapse of the sky and the earth, and even if it was dozens of miles away, Zhou Yang felt a strong vibration on the ground.
"Is it over?"
His eyes were blank as he looked at the roar, his eyes full of shock.
Is this the power of the full force of the foundation building monk's blow?
Sure enough, it's terrifying!
