Chapter 89 Saving the Day
Although Duan Heisi has temporarily filled the gap that was torn open, the pressure from both sides has begun to concentrate on him.
The mandrill seemed to have sensed a weak point, its hiss suddenly rising in intensity, and more dark figures surged toward that direction.
Duan Heisi, alone with his sword, stood at the gap, his blade flashing and forming a bright, white barrier. But there were simply too many mountain demons. He had just killed two in front of him when another one on his left caught him off guard and slashed his left leg, instantly soaking his trousers in blood.
Not far behind them, Wu Liang was panting heavily.
With one hand, he pulled a spearhead from the mandrill's body, while with the other hand he reached into his pouch and pulled out a "Crimson Flame Talisman," a treasured item.
Just then, he spotted a mountain demon about to pounce on Miao Wu Niang from the side—
She had her back to the mandrill, her dagger still stuck in the throat of another mandrill, and had no time to turn around.
Wu Liang quickly threw away the broken spear in his hand, grabbed a Crimson Flame Talisman, and rushed forward.
"Bang!"
He punched the mandrill in the temple.
The mandrill's head lolled to the side after being hit, and with a backhand flick of its three-fingered claw, it slashed a long, bloody gash across Wu Liang's arm.
Wu Liang winced in pain, then finally remembered that he still had a talisman in his hand, and immediately slapped the "Crimson Flame Talisman" onto the mountain demon's face.
"BOOM!!"
A burst of fire erupted, and the mandrill was blasted away, falling silent.
He was also thrown to the ground by the shockwave.
His arm was charred black, and the wound was torn open even more by the impact, with blood flowing down his sleeve.
"Idiot! That's a Crimson Flame Talisman! You're putting it right in front of your face?! Are you out of your mind?!"
Miao Wuniang stabbed the mountain demon in front of her to death with a single blow, then turned around and roared at him.
Wu Liang got up from the ground, clutching his arm. His lips trembled as if he wanted to retort, but in the end he just gritted his teeth and threw out another talisman, scare away the other mountain demon.
Chen Bai saw this scene from a distance and quickly focused on restoring his internal energy.
Meanwhile, the front lines are in dire need of attention.
Yao Ye was exhausted from running around putting out fires everywhere.
He took out one magical artifact after another from the bag, until he himself couldn't even remember how many he had taken out.
In order to seal the gap on the right flank, he had just summoned a golden ring with vertical wings. The ring suddenly exploded halfway through its flight, turning into dozens of sharp blades that tore apart the mountain demons surging up from the right, causing them to fly in blood and flesh.
Just as the breach on the left flank was sealed, another group of mandrills broke through the silken net formation on the front.
He raised his hand and pointed, and another jade ruler flew out, striking the ground and instantly creating a ravine.
Beside Yao Ye, the tiger demon was playing with two strange mountain goblins.
"Crack!"
Its enormous tiger claws forcefully pinned a strange mandrill to the ground, its bloody mouth wide open, instantly crushing its skull.
The tiger demon shook its head, flicking away the blood droplets that clung to its smooth fur.
Then, it calmly and skillfully dodged the attack of another mandrill.
"call out--"
The tiger's tail, as swift as a steel whip, exploded in mid-air with a loud bang.
With a single blow, the thick-skinned, strange mountain demon was torn to pieces.
With its mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation level and its tiger claws and whip tail comparable to mid-grade magic weapons, it could naturally handle the situation with ease.
Just then.
Wei Ziyu walked over, his face full of grief, and said, "Young Master Yao, Senior Brother Xue is gone..."
Just now, he saw Xue Zhen surrounded by hundreds of mountain demons and torn to pieces, so he quickly came to report.
"understood."
Yao Ye glanced at the precarious battle line not far away, reached into his pouch, took out a fine jade pearl, and silently adjusted his breathing.
A surge of pure spiritual energy flowed into his dantian, rapidly replenishing his embryonic breathing, causing a flush to rise on his face.
"Jin Ming, go over there and, while you're at it, collect that idiot's corpse..."
Yao Ye said in a cold voice.
Upon hearing his words, the demonic tiger beside him revealed a hint of understanding in its bright yellow beast eyes.
Only then did he rouse himself, roar, and rush to the rescue.
On the other side, Duan Heisi and his group finally couldn't hold on any longer.
The swarm of mandrills pouring in from the left did not weaken after that concentrated attack; on the contrary, their numbers continued to increase.
The blood on the group was a mixture of black and red, making it impossible to tell which blood belonged to the mandrill and which to themselves.
The mandrills continue to arrive in droves.
Treading on the corpses of their own kind, like a black tide. They seemed tireless, and fearless. But the humans were already running out of strength.
Soon, another wave of haunting mountain demons charged in.
After Chen Bai finished adjusting his breathing, he didn't dare to delay and hurriedly summoned the "Fanshan Seal" again.
That small reddish-yellow seal, swelled in the wind, transforming into a small mountain, weighing over a thousand pounds.
Its shadow enveloped everyone.
"go!"
Before Duan Heisi and his companions could react, they heard the sound of flesh being crushed.
"Splash—"
The commotion at that moment was like hundreds of cleavers simultaneously chopping at the meat on the cutting board.
More than ten mandrills rushed ahead and were smashed solidly, turned into meat patties by the "Fan Shan Yin".
"Bang bang bang..."
More mandrills were driven and swept along by the rampaging hill, gathering in one place.
"fall!"
With Chen Bai's five fingers spread wide, he pressed down hard.
When the seal landed, blood and flesh flew everywhere.
Soon, blood began to gush out from the surrounding area, and dozens of mandrills were buried underneath, forming a pool of accumulated blood.
As the "Fanshan Seal" slowly rose, the bottom of the seal was still stained with viscous bloodstains, as if it had just been applied as ink.
Duan Heisi felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, which then returned to light.
The swarm of mountain demons in front of us has been cleared out, leaving only a large pit, at the bottom of which is a large reddish-yellow seal that is slowly rising.
The seal surface was still stained with the black blood and bits of flesh of the mandrill, giving it a dull luster.
"Damn it..."
He opened his mouth, but only uttered those two words.
Chen Bai remained calm, and his right hand gesture changed again.
The mountain demon circled in the air, then locked onto another area densely populated with mountain demons, and slammed down again.
boom--
Rock fragments flew everywhere, and more than ten more mandrills were smashed and sent flying in all directions.
At the same time, his spiritual sense stirred slightly, stimulating Xiao Liu, who was brimming with spiritual energy within his body.
A streak of azure light shot out from his dantian.
"Ah!"
The little crow let out a clear cry and transformed into a streak of blue flame, soaring into the sky.
It circled halfway in the air, spread its wings, and opened its mouth to spew out a thin, pale blue line of fire, about the thickness of a thumb.
The fire line drew a graceful arc in the air, accurately hitting one of the mountain demons that was attacking Miao Wuniang.
Before the mandrill could react, a line of fire pierced through its head, and blue flames shot out from its eye sockets, ear canals, and mouth at the same time. Within a few breaths, its small body was burned into a charred mess.
Little Six flapped its wings and swept past, making a nimble turn in the air, and then spat out two more streaks of fire.
The two mountain demons that were trying to ambush Duan Heisi from the side were hit at the same time. Blue flames instantly enveloped their entire bodies. They rolled on the ground and howled, their voices shrill and piercing. Moments later, they were burned to nothing but two charred skeletons.
