Chapter 93: Chapter 87: Four Depart, Three Return
Although they prepared in advance, with Magical Artifacts, Talismans, and Magic unleashed, they still suffered some injuries.
Now, they all looked somewhat disheveled.
Ji Yuan stood on the Thunder Falcon Boat, scrutinizing the scene with a gloomy expression.
One at Qi Cultivation level ten, three at Qi Cultivation level nine... Damn it, this is bleak, truly bleak. As expected, there aren’t many fools among those capable of cultivating.
Ji Yuan already regretted coming here to seize the Gentiana, but the ones regretting more were Yao Jingfeng and Du Wanyi.
Coming here was all their idea, and initially unwilling Ji Yuan was dragged along too, but facing this scene... it’s a real perilous situation!
"Cultivators die from too much talking, fight!"
Mo Fenghua at Qi Cultivation level ten commanded in a low voice.
In an instant, the rest rushed forward again, leaving no chance to speak.
Consequently, Ji Yuan had no time to spare for the trapped Yao Jingfeng, as Meng Zhe charged at him once more.
This time, Ji Yuan didn’t run; he raised his hand and tossed out a top-grade Demon Suppression Talisman.
Though both were top-grade Talismans, when facing a Demon Cultivator, this Demon Suppression Talisman was indeed more favorable than the Golden Seal Talisman.
The word ’Suppress’ launched towards him, forcing Meng Zhe to slap a top-grade Protective Talisman on himself again, but before he could retaliate, a black stone flew through the air.
"Damn it!"
His body was controlled by the Demon Suppression Talisman, preventing him from escaping, he could only muster all his strength to withstand the blow.
From a distance, two consecutive Water Bomb explosions sounded.
But those deploying the Water Bombs weren’t Yao Jingfeng this time; it was Du Wanyi and Yao Jingfeng.
In a moment, three Water Bombs exploded in the tight forest, sending Ji Yuan flying five zhang away; he looked back at the dense woods.
What appeared was no longer a dense forest, but rather the scene of a landslide.
The rumbling continued to echo in the air, persisting endlessly.
His ears rang, making it impossible to hear anything; he just saw Du Wanyi vomiting blood profusely, while Luo Tian resumed his fight against the Demon Cultivator in the forest.
Yao Jingfeng was nowhere to be seen.
"Courting death!"
Despite surviving a Water Bomb and a top-grade Talisman, Meng Zhe, bleeding from seven orifices, looked as though he had only a few days left.
Ji Yuan hadn’t watched Meng Zhe’s move closely, but he already slapped a top-grade Iron Wall Talisman on himself, along with the Hundred Fish Shield in front.
In that instant, a starving wolf’s phantom appeared unexpectedly.
It fiercely bit the Hundred Fish Shield in Ji Yuan’s hand.
In a moment, Ji Yuan was forced to continuously step back.
"Go!"
His Heart Thought moved, a leaf on his shoulder suddenly flashed with a cyan arc, accompanied by several strands of Spiritual Light.
"Sizzle—"
Amidst the cyan light, there was a blend of blue glow.
Instantly breaking through the wolf phantom, it attacked Meng Zhe in the distance again.
But what followed were spectral figures rushing out from within the dense woods, each with slender legs but incredibly thick upper bodies.
"Fall—"
The Hundred Fish Shield, freed from constraints, spun around him; Ji Yuan crushed six Thunder Strike Talismans.
Purple thunder fell, striking the phantom figures and toppling them.
Seeing Meng Zhe on the opposite side intending to forcibly cast a spell, Ji Yuan squinted his eyes, knowing that things couldn’t be dragged on any longer.
With a beckoning gesture, the Green Flying Sword descended with a rain curtain, the raindrops turned into a dozen mirrors upon hitting the ground, surrounding Meng Zhe.
He believed Ji Yuan was using some deadly move and hurriedly executed a Protective Magic.
Meanwhile, his robes emitted a black mist shielding him.
Observing this, Ji Yuan’s Heart Thought moved decisively, ceasing the Canglang Sword Technique; the dozen mirrors shattered suddenly, transforming into shooting Water Arrows.
Not only this, but he crushed a Thunder Talisman.
This time, the Talisman was not a middle-grade Thunder Strike Talisman, but a top-grade Thunderfall Talisman!
In an instant, nearly ten purple thunders accompanied by Water Arrows landed.
The Water Technique complemented by thunder, manifesting formidable power; in the blink of an eye, it broke through Meng Zhe’s final defenses.
"Kill—"
Ji Yuan performed a Sword Technique with a single hand, speeding up the Green Flying Sword; amidst a flash of cyan, it pierced through the black mist, taking a head along with it.
Followed by three Fireballs.
Each landed on the Demon Cultivator’s body and head, the flames consuming them; as Ji Yuan’s figure flickered aboard the Flying Boat, he already took away his Storage Bag.
The entire set of actions unfolded seamlessly.
With the Green Flying Sword returning, Ji Yuan was already piloting the Thunder Falcon Boat out of the forest.
He hurriedly looked around... Du Wanyi barely held the upper hand but was fighting fiercely.
Luo Tian was even worse, being forced to retreat, only defensively.
His keen eyes observed Ji Yuan having finished the battle, and he immediately shouted: "Never mind me, go save Yao Jingfeng!"
Damn it, you’re asking me, at Qi Cultivation level seven, to confront a level ten head-on... Ji Yuan complained inwardly, yet his figure didn’t pause, instead heading for another battlefield.
With a formidable enemy ahead, he didn’t plan to abandon his teammates... for now, he didn’t.
What happens after remains uncertain.
His figure flashed in disappearance; upon reaching another open space... Yao Jingfeng was already barely breathing, yet still persevering.
"Suppress!"
Ji Yuan spoke no word further, immediately tossing out a Demon Suppression Talisman.
