Chapter 11: The Fierce Battle in the Desert (I)
Li Hui's divine sense swept slightly, and he found that these red-spotted lizards were only the strength of second-level demon beasts, just like the iron-backed wolf he had encountered when he was collecting medicine in the Bixiao Mountain Range.
A demon beast of this strength, if it is an innate martial artist holding a spiritual weapon, it can easily deal with it one-on-one, but if it is those second-grade or third-grade martial artists, they must join forces to fight against it.
"All the third-rank martial artists below retreat to the inner circle to guard the goods, and the rest are ready to attack!" Shi Potian shouted.
Whoa!
All the warriors below the third rank, most of them were some chauffeurs and ordinary Dade Tong merchants, and they all retreated inside, bringing those big carts together to form a circle. Some valuable goods were in the center of the cart's circle, and the men shrank further to guard the cart.
Rustling!
The red-spotted lizards kept approaching, crawling rapidly across the desert, and soon they were out of sight of the caravan.
At this time, everyone's faces became more and more solemn, because they saw that the dense red spotted lizard was spreading from a distance, and the number was far greater than they had imagined!
Li Hui looked up into the distance, and his divine sense spread away, and he soon found that the number of this group of red spotted lizards was nearly five hundred!
At this moment, Li Hui was even more suspicious that these red-spotted lizards were driven by someone behind them. However, his divine sense could not catch the man who was driving these beasts behind them.
"Pay attention to it, there are people behind these red spotted lizards, I'm afraid that the cultivation is not low, it is the Jindan monk who made the move, it seems that this Dadetong caravan is probably in big trouble." ”
Li Hui's voice sounded in the ears of every Sword Sect cultivator.
"Sect Master, what should we do then? Do we want to make a move?" asked Liu Piaoxu.
"For the time being, pay attention to hiding your own cultivation, and use the means of ordinary foundation building monks to attack, the enemy is in the dark, don't act rashly until you find out the other party's intentions and reality. Li Hui commanded.
Even Lin Yang received Li Hui's divine sense transmission.
After explaining to everyone, Li Hui looked again, and those red spotted lizards had completely forced up.
Hiss!
In the herd, there were a few large red spotted lizards that let out a few low hoarse calls, and then the entire demon beast herd stopped moving forward when it was still more than twenty feet away from the caravan circle, but quickly dispersed and surrounded the caravan. Surround up!
At this moment, not only Li Hui and other Jindan monks, but even Shi Potian realized that these demon beasts were probably driven by someone behind them.
Qiao Tianqi's brows furrowed tightly, and there was a deep sadness in the depths of his eyes.
However, whether it was Shi Potian or Qiao Tianqi, they were not a little flustered.
"Ironguard, attack!"
When those red-spotted beasts had just dispersed and had not yet completed the encirclement of the entire caravan, Shi Potian waved the battle knife in his hand and gave a decisive order.
Whew!
In the crowd, hardcover men wearing black light armor and holding standard war knives flew out and killed the red-spotted beasts that surrounded them.
Two hundred men flew out, extremely athletic, like cheetahs, but their movements were surprisingly consistent. At the moment of departure, it staggered back and forth to form a combined attack.
Every time it rises and falls on the desert, it is a distance of about three zhang, and after several ups and downs, it is convenient for these demon beasts to meet, and when these men fall, they just land on those red spotted lizards and intercept these demon beasts.
Hiss!
The red-spotted lizard, which had rushed to the front, screamed and pounced on the men. A big war unfolded quickly.
Li Hui stood in the circle, looking at the battle situation in front of him.
I saw a red spotted lizard, and its two front paws suddenly stood up, its claws opened, and the hook tips at the end of its claws spread out to a foot long, emitting a faint green light, obviously containing poison in its claws. Then the monitor lizard opened its mouth, and a red lightning flashed, and it turned out to be a scarlet tongue that was several feet long and rolled towards the first ironclad guard!
The ironclad guard did not panic at all, his body did not move, the brilliance in his hand flashed, and the standard war knife slashed like lightning and slashed towards the long tongue rolled by the monitor lizard.
The other two ironclad guards in front of him took the opportunity to bully forward, and their bodies grew violently, like leopards, and pounced on the monitor lizard with teeth and claws.
Whew!
The two sword lights intertwined and fell, but instead of attacking the other parts of the monitor lizard, they also slashed towards the monitor lizard's long tongue.
All three knives were shot, but each attacked from a different direction, but the target was the same long tongue. This enveloped all the attacks and retreat directions of the monitor lizard's long tongue, unless the speed of the monitor lizard's long tongue was unbelievably fast, it was categorically unable to dodge the attack of these three knives.
Burst!
Sure enough, in the process of retracting, the long tongue of this monitor lizard was slashed by an ironclad guard who deceived him, and in an instant, a green blood mist splashed up, and a long tongue more than three feet long fell on the brown sand.
And after the three black-armored guards struck a blow, they immediately flew away, not stained with the green blood mist. There was a foul smell in the air, which was disgusting, and it was clear that the green blood mist also contained poison.
Hiss!
The monitor lizard let out a painful scream, and its massive body suddenly struck, turning into an afterimage and charging towards the three ironclad guards.
The three ironclad guards immediately stretched out their bodies and cooperated with each other to fight the monitor lizard.
I saw the sword flashing in the field, and the sound of killing shook the sky. These ironclad guards cooperated with each other, and the spirit weapons in their hands were all powered by spirit stones, and for a while, they actually had the upper hand and blocked the attacks of those red spotted lizards.
The corpse of a red spotted lizard fell on the ground. These ironclad guards of the Dade Tong Merchant were obviously well-trained and experienced soldiers, and they joined forces to attack at this time, and they unexpectedly burst out with such a powerful combat power.
This is the difference between a standard team and a regular straggler. In the world, a formed army of 100 people is enough to defeat a bandit army of 1,000 people. The standard army is especially good at combining attacks and killings, and when combined with each other, they can burst out with several times the combat effectiveness.
However, at this time, Shi Potian, Qiao Tianqi, Li Hui and others did not have the slightest relief on their faces.
In the first wave of attacks, those red spotted lizards were caught off guard and were hit head-on, but as time went by, the red spotted lizards that were blocked by the ironclad guards on the front line converged with those red spotted lizards that came from behind, and the number became larger and larger, and the pressure on the ironclad guards in front also increased.
"Guys, it's time for us to make a move!" Shi Potian shouted as he looked around.
Whew!
Immediately there was the sound of weapons unsheathed, and there was a response from the crowd. This time, it was those innate martial artists who were hired at a high price.
"Kill!"
With a burst of shouts, Shi Potian took the lead in flying out and falling towards those beasts. Immediately after that, a series of figures flew out, falling towards the herd of beasts with great speed.
Lin Yang also shot out with a long sword in his hand, and followed these innate martial artists towards the herd of beasts.
Li Hui saw it in his eyes, but he didn't object. You can never grow up without actual combat, and only by fighting between life and death can you truly understand the essence of kendo.
These top martial artists made a move, but it was a different situation.
I saw Shi Potian's body spread, like a big eagle sweeping across the desert, and when he fell, he was already above the herd. When it flies, it looks like a falcon, and when it falls, it falls like a meteor, and at the same time, a blue light falls.
A large monitor lizard below felt the murderous aura coming from mid-air, screamed and raised its two paws, and instantly flew up from the sand, striking towards the falling stone in the air.
But he saw that several feet long swords burst out from the battle knife in Shi Potian's hand, and then the monitor lizard that had just stood up was engulfed by the sword light in the sky.
In the black wind desert, it was as bright as a cyan rainbow, and the brilliant light of that knife was extremely dazzling at this moment.
Burst!
Then the huge body of the monitor lizard suddenly separated from each other, and for a moment the blood mist was filled. But there was not the slightest blood mist that could touch Shi Potian's body.
In the desert beast herd, Shi Potian is like a god descending to earth, and like an angry lion going crazy. The sword in his hand was shining again, and each time the knife flashed, it killed a red spotted lizard with incomparable accuracy.
"Awesome! This is the real martial artist!" Li Hui on the side secretly admired in his heart.
At this point, Li Hui was completely convinced that the world's top martial artists even had the ability to fight with the Zhuji monks. Judging from the combat power that broke out at this time, it was not inferior to an ordinary foundation-building monk.
These martial arts and sword techniques have been tempered thousands of times, and countless martial artists have worked hard to create, and the moves are extremely exquisite, ruthless and accurate. If you encounter the kind of monk who loves to chant spells and draw talismans, the gods and gods chatter, you will be able to achieve the result with a single sword.
Shi Potian's body qi flowed, echoing with heaven and earth, the qi was like the Yangtze River turning endlessly, at this time, the more brave the battle, the place where the sword was shrouded, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and one monitor lizard fell.
The original true qi in the body of the innate martial artist is condensed and compressed, just like a cultivator in the Qi refining period among the cultivators, and even more condensed than the qi refining cultivators. The control of martial arts and strength is even more unique.
Other innate martial artists made a move, although they couldn't be compared to Shi Potian, but they were really not weak. After this group of top masters joined, the battle situation instantly became a one-sided situation.
Although there were many of them, they were completely slaughtered at this time. Dadetong Iron Armor Guard followed behind these innate martial artists to rush and kill, and made up the sword in time, cooperating with the innate martial artists to encircle and kill.
With these innate martial artists taking action, it is only a matter of time before these red-spotted lizards are all exterminated.
However, thinking that there might be someone behind these red spotted lizards, and it might even be a Jindan monk, Li Hui still muttered a little in his heart.
Li Hui was naturally not afraid of possible enemies. Don't say that Brother Jindan, even if Brother Yuanying makes a move, it is not a simple matter to keep him.
It's just that when he first arrived in Shangzhou and couldn't figure out the details, Li Hui really didn't want to have any conflict with the high-level monks for some reason. At this moment, he was constantly speculating in his heart, how could this Dade Tong Merchant provoke such a strong enemy.
