"Two junior brothers and sisters, let's kill the beasts inside now!" Ye Zhengyuan waved to He Yue and Li Jiuheng beside him, intending to go directly into the cave to find the scorpion-tailed beast.
Just as they were about to step towards the cave, there was a sound from the cave in front of them. After a while, a slightly smaller scorpion-tailed beast appeared at the entrance of the cave with heavy steps.
"It turns out there really is another one!" Although he already knew that there was another scorpion-tailed beast in the cave, and that he and others were about to deal with it, Li Jiuheng was still shocked after actually seeing that one.
Among the four, He Yue and Li Jiuheng had the least actual combat experience. Although they had seen a scorpion-tailed beast before, it had already been trapped by Senior Brother Shen using the four-image array, so they were not worried. But now a completely unrestrained scorpion-tailed beast appeared in front of them, and they were about to fight it. He Yue and Li Jiuheng became scared inside.
Seemingly aware of the fear of the two people behind him, Ye Zhengyuan immediately comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'll be the main attacker, and you can just take care of them from the side."
After saying that, Ye Zhengyuan raised a long sword, pointed it at the scorpion-tailed beast at the entrance of the cave in front of him and said: "Beast, I was going to find you in the cave, but I didn't expect you to come out on your own. This is as good as it saves me." Find your time and prepare to die.”
At this moment, the scorpion-tailed beast standing at the entrance of the cave saw its companion trapped in a blue magic circle, and Ye Zhengyuan, who had been injured by him before, was sarcastic, so he couldn't help but roar, and then waved two huge Ao weapons. Qian rushed towards Ye Zhengyuan. In its understanding, as long as it kills the three people in front of it, it can rendezvous with its companions and kill the last person.
Soon, Ye Zhengyuan and the others started fighting with the manticore that was charging forward.
At this time, the other scorpion-tailed beast that was originally trapped in the four-image array saw his companions rushing out of the cave and fighting with the other three people. He became even more furious and crazy, and kept using his double pincers. He and Tailhook attacked the blue barrier, trying to break through the magic circle and join their companions.
Under the impact of the scorpion-tailed beast's fearless death, the originally solid four-image array began to shake, and the blue barriers on all sides began to undulate like water ripples. Shen Chuxiong, who was still worried about He Yue and others, immediately retracted his thoughts when he saw this, and began to increase the output of his own Ming Yuan to prevent the blue barrier from being broken by the impact of the scorpion-tailed beast.
As Shen Chuxiong increased the input of Ming Yuan into the scroll, the four-image array that had been shaking before stabilized again, and the blue barriers on all sides became more solid.
After seeing that the magic circle was stable again and that the scorpion-tailed beast could not escape, Shen Chuxiong breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at the battlefield on the other side.
On the other side of the battlefield, Ye Zhengyuan was currently attacking another scorpion-tailed beast.
Ye Zhengyuan, who was at the peak of the Qi Realm, was indeed powerful. Although he was attacked by a scorpion-tailed beast in the cave and injured his right arm, at this time he was holding a long sword and slashed at the two pincers of the scorpion-tailed beast.
The scorpion-tailed beast wanted to counterattack, but fortunately Ye Zhengyuan didn't give it a chance. As soon as the opponent was negligent, Ye Zhengyuan stabbed it in the head with a sword. In this case, the scorpion-tailed beast could only use its two large pincers to protect it. Fortunately, its scales were too hard. Even though the opponent's sword could hit its pincers, it would only cause sparks to fly and could not break through its defense.
After the initial fear, He Yue and Li Jiuheng gradually calmed down, and then surrounded the scorpion-tailed beast on both sides, while defending, they gave it a sudden blow.
Although their cold shots could not harm each other, they also caused great inconvenience to the manticore. Ye Zhengyuan's attack from the front was already very sharp, and it was not given a chance to counterattack. Now the "harassment" from the left and right sides made the manticore only defensive, even if it occasionally wanted to surprise someone with its tail hook. , but the three of them, Ye Zhengyuan, dexterously dodged them, and the other two even seized the opportunity to attack fiercely.
At this moment, not far away, Shi Jiu, who was hiding behind a boulder, was always paying attention to the situation on the field.
At present, it seems that the two sides are in a stalemate, and there is no winner yet. At the same time, this is also an opportunity for Shi Jiu, who can just use this to enter the cave.
"How to get in?" Looking at the two battlefields in front of him, Shi Jiu knew that whether he broke in forcefully or sneaked in, he would be discovered by both parties in the field. The outcome would be tragic, and he had to find a way.
At this time, Shi Jiu lowered his head and accidentally glanced at the black spoon jade on his chest.
"Yes."
Shi Jiu's eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, and then immediately entered the Xumi space.
"Senior Sword Emperor, are you here? I have something to ask of you." Shi Jiu walked to the remains of the Great Red Sword Emperor and said respectfully.
The originally motionless remains reacted, and a faint red light was seen rising from the remains' head, and then slowly transformed into a human form.
"Little guy, why did you wake me up?" The Great Red Sword Emperor was a little displeased, "I don't have much power left and I need to sleep."
"Senior Sword Emperor, I really need your help this time. Afterwards, I will build you a super luxurious tomb for you to sleep in." Shi Jiu didn't care about the displeasure of the Big Red Sword Emperor, but drew a "Big pie".
"You kid, tell me, what's the matter?" Although they have only been together for a short period of time, the Great Red Sword Emperor still approves of Shi Jiu in general. Although he knows that the other party has no good intentions with him, he still asks, after all, his long-cherished wish requires He'll do it.
"It's like this, I will go to your hometown Shuilin City according to your wishes, and pass by Iwagu City on the way..." Because he was worried about the changes in the battle situation outside, Shi Jiu quickly told what happened.
"So, you want to take this opportunity to go into the cave and pick the two-leaf red fruit?" After listening to Shi Jiu's story, the Great Red Sword Emperor asked.
"That's right, but I'm not sure that I can let the two waves of people outside enter the cave without noticing, so I want to ask Senior Sword Emperor for advice."
"You should be cautious. Let's go and follow me to the outside world." After saying that, the Great Red Sword Emperor slowly floated out of the Sumeru space, followed closely by Shi Jiu.
"Well, the four-image array is pretty good, but it's just a simplified version." After leaving the Sumeru space, the Great Red Sword Emperor looked at the battlefield ahead, and then commented, as for the scorpion-tailed beast, Shen Chuxiong and others. Ignored by him.
At this time, the battlefield ahead is still stalemate.
"Senior Sword Emperor, let's evaluate it later. How to get me into the cave is the most important thing." Seeing that Da Chi Sword Emperor was interested in commenting, Shi Jiu felt a little anxious.
"Haha, little guy, are you anxious?" Looking at Shi Jiu who was eager at the side, the Da Chi Sword Emperor smiled.
"Senior Sword Emperor, please stop making fun of me and think of a way for me as soon as possible." Shi Jiu was anxious.
"Looking at how anxious you are, okay, I won't tease you anymore." The Great Red Sword Emperor still smiled.
"Then how should I get in?" Shi Jiu asked eagerly.
The Great Red Sword Emperor looked at the battle situation again, and then said: "I estimate that the scorpion-tailed beast is going to go crazy soon, so we will take this opportunity to enter the cave."
"Then how do I get in? I can't just go in arrogantly, right?" Seeing that the Great Red Sword Emperor still didn't talk about the point, Shi Jiu said sarcastically.
"Little guy, you have to be patient." The Great Red Sword Emperor paused, and then said again: "Later, just rush in as fast as possible along the stone wall, and leave the rest to me."
"Really? I just rushed in like this?" Shi Jiu couldn't believe it. Could it be that Ye Zhengyuan and the others wouldn't find him.
"Little guy, don't you believe me?" the Great Red Sword Emperor asked.
"Senior Sword Emperor, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this is too unreliable. I really..." Shi Jiu wanted to say more, but was immediately interrupted by the Great Red Sword Emperor.
"I am a strong person in the Soul Realm, and I have abilities that are beyond the comprehension of your Soul Realm. Even if I have fallen, I can still do it easily!" At this time, the Great Red Sword Emperor regained his previous momentum.
Seeing the different Da Chi Sword Emperor in front of him, Shi Jiu knew that he had to believe it even if he didn't believe it.
So he said: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Senior Sword Emperor."
"Well, that's right. A strong soul like me is definitely worthy of your trust." The Great Red Sword Emperor said proudly.
"Well, yes, I believe in Senior Sword Emperor." Shi Jiu said respectfully, but in his heart he was saying, a person who has been dead for tens of thousands of years now only has a trace of obsession left. What can I believe in you?
