Chapter 17: The Corrupt Beast
After the water tribe arrived and rested for a day, the Dark Family held a meeting of the eight tribes to explain the rules of the competition.
The patriarch of the Dark Clan is a middle-aged man with yellow hair and fair skin, and his entire body is shrouded in a large black cloak, only revealing his pale cheeks and bloodshot eyes, which looks extremely weird!
He opened his dry lips, revealing a mouth full of dark yellow teeth, and said in a hoarse voice: "The Wilderness Ranking Battle is to conform to the vital interests of the eight major families, promote the exchange and communication of the eight major families, and also show the ultimate ring of the future stars of the major families. The venue is located in the wilderness, which is a treasure mountain in our Dark Continent, and we will set up eight flags at the finish line, each of which will be guarded by two members of the team sent by each family, and only the family that will bring the flag back to the starting point first wins. As for where the end is, you'll have to find out for yourselves. There are many dangers on the way, so I hope everyone will try to be careful. ......"
It's as simple as that, there is no superfluous introduction, just that each team sends two team members to be led by the leader of each team, ready to go to the finish line to guard the flag.
In order to be precautionary, the Water Clan sent two experienced masters of the Nine Realms of Ning Dan, but in this way, the strength of the team was reduced a lot. There were only four cultivators left in the team who were above the Fifth Fold Realm of Ning Dan, among them the peak of the Chalk Condensing Pill Realm, the ninth level of the Water Dance Condensing Dan Realm, and the remaining three were all between the seventh and eighth levels of the Ning Dan Realm. These four people constitute the top combat power of the entire team.
Because Feng Ling's strength was still in the fifth level of the liquid spirit realm, he had almost no say in the team, so he just silently obeyed the arrangements of chalk and water dance.
......
Wilderness, located on a small island in the Dark Continent, is littered with rocks, barren and inhabited, and the breath of life is meager, even the people of the Dark Continent will not set foot in this place without permission. The sky was cloudy, and even at noon, the light was dim. It was in such a place that the people of the Eight Great Families needed to find the flag.
Of course, for the sake of fairness, the position of the finish line is decided on an impromptu basis after everyone has set off, and there is no possibility of cheating.
Bai Chalk was ready for battle early, dividing the existing twenty-eight people into four groups, each group assigned two Ning Dan Realm main attackers, and the remaining five liquid spirit realm defensive. All of them are arranged in a circle, so that the three members of the group who are relatively weak are in the inner ring and the four are in the outer ring. The strength of each group should be as even as possible. If there is no group above the fifth level of the Ning Dan Realm, they will naturally be assigned to the powerhouses in the Liquid Spirit Realm.
And Feng Ling and Shui Yi were assigned to the group of He Shui Dance because of their poor strength. But because Feng Ling and Shui Yiyi's physical condition is relatively good, they were assigned to the outer ring again.
The four rings are interlocking, and they form a large array, all of which are taken care of in the front and back, left and right, and the chalk group leads the way slowly to the front.
......
The wilderness is barren and full of life, the wind is gusting, and the ghostly howls that come from time to time are terrifying. Some girls desperately rely on the boys, trying to dispel the fear in their hearts.
Feng Ling looked around intently, his muscles tense and in a fighting state at all times. A quarter of an hour ago, he had been keenly aware that something had been watching them, and at first he was not sure, but after exchanging glances with Shui Wu, he found that he had noticed it too.
"Something!" chalk reminded everyone at the same time.
It seems that there are countless eyes watching them, and the unknown is always the most terrifying, always invisible, always being watched, everyone's attention is highly concentrated, and they dare not relax in the slightest.
I persisted like this for half a day, and I didn't find anything. Due to the high concentration for a long time, everyone's mental power has declined very much. This is just the beginning, and everyone is so unbearable.
"From now on, two people in each group will observe the surroundings, and the rest will relax and rest, taking turns every quarter of an hour. "Chalk gave the order in time.
But at the moment when everyone's spirit relaxed, countless black spots swarmed in.
Rotting beasts, petite, pitch-black, with sharp teeth and sharp claws, are good at group attacks, like to forage for carrion, and often toss them together after killing their opponents, waiting for the flesh to corrode before starting to eat.
"It's the Rotten Beasts, please note that they are not very attackable, but they are surprisingly numerous, so be prepared to continue fighting. "The chalk had already looked around, and found that there were broken walls and ruins everywhere, and not even a single plant could be seen, let alone a place to hide, so it was imperative that he could only carry it.
For a while, all kinds of water escape ice spikes continued, trying their best to kill the Erosion Beast.
"Guy, these fools, although the attack power of the Corrupt Beasts is insufficient, but there are many of them, just wait to be exhausted to death!" a guy who was completely black, wearing a mask, and had no grass on his head, laughed, "It looks like I'm going to make a meritorious service, and I'll easily clean them up when they're all exhausted." Come on, my little darlings, I've managed to lure you here, and I've got to fight for it......!
With the passage of time, these corrosive beasts not only did not decrease, but continued to increase, which made everyone negative, and their physical strength was about to reach the limit, could they just die at the starting point?
Feng Ling calmly observed the corrosive beasts, and found that their pupils were pitch black and blood-red, almost all of them gathered on the backlit side, even though the wilderness was already dim. And all of them are cold, because they are physical cultivators, their physical functions are stronger than others, so they emit more heat, and the corrosion beasts on their side are the least.
Feng Ling seemed to have found the weakness of these corrupt beasts, but he didn't make a sound to remind everyone, just silently experimented with it.
Medium-grade body technique, flame fist!
Gather the true qi on the surface of the fist, and urge them to vibrate violently, and the arm also trembles with the high-frequency vibration of the true qi, so that the air is constantly rubbed to produce flames, and then the true qi is pushed and bombarded out, this is the flame fist!
The effect confirmed what Feng Ling was thinking, only to see that the Flame Fist was invincible everywhere it passed, and the Corrupt Beasts all dodged and retreated, frightened and screamed!
The crowd also saw the doorway, and lit torches one after another, driving away the corrupt beasts. After unremitting efforts, these rotten beasts finally fled in panic. Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief, slumped on the ground, and a relieved smile appeared on the corner of their mouths, it seemed that everyone had escaped!
"Ling Feng, how do you know they're afraid of fire?" Shui Yiyi couldn't help but ask curiously.
Everyone couldn't help but prick up their ears to eavesdrop, obviously very curious about Ling Feng's approach.
"It's simple, I grew up in the forest and am good at observing!"
"Cut, if you say it, you don't say it, I also observed it, but why didn't I find it!"
"That's it, just don't say it, just pretend!"
Some guys who are not used to looking at Feng Ling will naturally not let go of the opportunity to belittle him, and they will suddenly be noisy!
"Well, look at what you look like, you have received favors from others and do not know how to thank them, but instead you are playing right and wrong on the sidelines, is it a gentleman's act? Even though some people were dissatisfied with him, they just pouted and didn't dare to make another mistake.
"Ling Feng, that's good, you saved everyone's lives, I thank you on behalf of everyone!"
Dancing Water also patted Feng Ling's shoulder and smiled.
Feng Ling smiled at Shui Wu, then looked at the chalk and said, "I can't save everyone, I'm just saving myself!"
