Chapter 155: The Rushing War

Wilderness, a remote area

Three very large airships slowly moved in the sky, almost suspended, with cultivators coming in and out on each airship.

These airships served as transfer stations, rest stops, and slaughterhouses. Disciples who went out brought back the bodies of demonic beasts, which were then dissected to collect useful materials. Injured disciples also received treatment on them.

And more cultivators surrounded these three airships, sweeping across the ground, killing any visible demonic beasts mercilessly.

This was a collective action led by the Five Elements Sect, with dozens of disciples at the golden core stage, hundreds at the building foundation stage, and thousands at the Qi Refining stage. They formed teams of several tens of people and ruthlessly killed the members of the demonic tribe.

Their goal was to open a passage from a Five Elements Sect stronghold to the Heavenly Wolf King’s lair. In the surroundings of this passage, no demonic beasts were allowed to exist.

Lin Jiang and Zhang Shuhua also participated, with Guo Yunfeng personally leading the group. There was nowhere to run, so they could only join the battle with a brave face.

"Senior brother, are you foolish? Keep charging forward!"

Lin Jiang saw that Zhang Shuhua was charging fiercely and hurriedly pulled him back.

"Junior brother, don’t be afraid of battle."

"Look around, everyone is in groups, we are isolated. Understand? The situation is not right now. The demons’ counterattack is weak. Later, watch my signals and act accordingly. If anything goes wrong, run."

Lin Jiang said, Guo Yunfeng is narrow-minded and wants to kill them. Everyone around belongs to Guo Yunfeng. They claimed to be in a team with them but deliberately isolated them. What a fool to charge forward now and seek death.

"Senior master Guo, he…"

"Stop talking nonsense. If you don’t want to die, follow me and save your life. You can’t compare to me."

Lin Jiang said, after fighting for a long time, Lin Jiang never made a move. If he needs to take action, he would throw spiritual talismans. He saves his spiritual power, being more ruthless to his own people than to demons.

"Run, it’s the Spirit Devouring Demonic Ant."

"So many Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants, countless numbers."

"Quick, keep moving and don’t stop."

"Fire magic"

"Quick, use fire magic, fire magic can defeat them."

As soon as Lin Jiang finished speaking, they heard cries of alarm coming from disciples of the Five Elements Sect in the distance. Lin Jiang and Zhang Shuhua looked up and saw a layer of black mist appearing in the distance.

That is not mist, but a large number of Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants. They look like mist.

Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants can fly at low altitude, their mouthparts can break through armor, even magical treasures can’t withstand their massive consumption. They are one of the most terrifying killers in the Wilderness, even scarier than high-level monsters.

"Boom"

"Boom"

Some disciples of the Five Elements Sect cast fire magic spells, while others used spiritual talismans. With one fire magic spell, hundreds or even thousands of Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants were burned to death.

But it was useless, there were too many of them, too many to count, only knowing that they were all in front of their eyes.

"Help me, senior brother, help me"

One disciple was entangled by the Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants, and in just a few words, he turned into a skeleton and was completely devoured.

"Blood Shadow Bee"

"Be careful of the sky, Blood Shadow Bee has also appeared"

"It’s Ghost Crow, Ghost Crow has also arrived"

"Martial Uncle, what should we do"

Immediately after, more groups of demonic beasts appeared. Both the Blood Shadow Bee and Ghost Crow appeared in large numbers. The sky was filled with countless demonic beasts.

"Retreat, withdraw in an orderly manner"

"Provide cover for each other, quickly"

With the help of a powerful warrior called Golden Core, a sword was swung to create a path of blood, and the order to retreat was given.

"Our elders in the sect have given the order, let’s go."

Lin Jiang held onto Zhang Shuhua, waiting for the command from Golden Core, and then they immediately took flight.

A large number of Blood Shadow Bees swarmed in. Lin Jiang was covered in excellent quality spiritual weapons, which temporarily held them off. He quickly used spiritual talismans one after another, as if they were free.

"Buzz"

Just then, dozens of lightning bolts appeared and struck amidst the disciples of the Five Elements Sect, causing hundreds of them to fall from the sky.

"Wicked creature"

Guo Yunfeng became furious and personally took action. He swung his sword towards a mass of clouds and mist. The clouds dissipated, revealing an extremely large monster.

"Fourth stage Thunder Cloud Beast"

"Humans, attack my territory, kill my people, die!"

The Thunder Cloud Beast spoke like a human, and attacked Guo Yunfeng. Even before it moved, a large amount of lightning struck towards Guo Yunfeng.

"Thunder Cloud Beast, I’ll help you."

Soon, another fourth-level monster appeared. It was a monster with a human head and bear body, probably a fierce bear demon.

After reaching the fourth level, monster creatures can transform, but most of them don’t actively choose to do so. Even if they do transform, they still retain some features of their monster form. Monsters don’t value human forms, and prefer to show their beast-like appearance.

"Disciples of the Five Elements Sect, retreat. Protect the golden core."

Chen Xuanhua didn’t directly take action. He didn’t know how many fourth-level monster creatures were involved and he was afraid of falling into a trap. He wanted to protect the disciples under him.

"Hehe, these Taoist friends, since you’ve all come, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Suddenly, a voice reached Chen Xuanhua’s ears, filling him with shock. The thing he feared the most had happened.

"Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox"

"No, I only have four tails. If you don’t believe me, take a look."

Chen Xuanhua turned around and saw a beautiful woman standing in front of him, but she had four fluffy tails behind her.

After the woman finished speaking, one of her tails swayed back and forth, releasing a pink aura.

"Everyone, be careful. Take the Calming and Concentration Pill to maintain a focused mind and prevent falling for illusions."

Chen Xuanhua drew his sword and warned his fellow Five Elements Sect disciple before attacking the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"Master, I am your student."

"Brother, please don’t kill me."

Chen Xuanhua reminded everyone to be prepared, but some still fell into a dreamland and started attacking those around them.

"Junior, I…"

"Stay focused, follow me."

Zhang Shuhua’s face turned red, his eyes became unfocused, and there were signs of being affected by magic. This shocked Lin Jiang.

The illusions of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox are powerful, but they can be easily defended against in certain situations. Only those with a weak mind can be deceived. Lin Jiang couldn’t believe that even Zhang Shuhua, who was always strong, had such a fragile mind.

"Xiao Yi, take Shuhua and walk on the ground. The outskirts are still inhabited by monsters."

At this moment, Zhang Wanjing’s voice reached Lin Jiang’s ears. Lin Jiang immediately grabbed Zhang Shuhua and they fell to the ground.

Countless Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants rushed towards Lin Jiang. Lin Jiang shouted loudly and quickly activated the spiritual talisman in his hand. Several fire dragons burned the Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants in front of him to ashes.

"Let’s go."

Lin Jiang roared angrily, and his power surged crazily as the two of them turned into a blurry figure and left.

The disciples of the Five Elements Sect saw the two of them creating a path of blood, and immediately someone followed, with more and more people coming from behind.

"Don’t follow me."

Lin Jiang turned around and shouted loudly. With so many people, they were definitely being targeted by demons. Wasn’t this going to kill him?

But no one paid attention to Lin Jiang’s words. At this moment, everyone was running for their lives, who cared about anything else.

"Cry"

As expected, after a while, Lin Jiang heard the sound of an eagle cry.

"Explosive Element Technique"

Without hesitation, Lin Jiang directly activated the Powerful Explosion Technique, and then slashed out with his sword.

"Boom"

A big black eagle behind Lin Jiang was hit by him and crashed into a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, knocking him down to the ground.

"Third-level Tigerhawk"

The rest of the disciples of the Five Elements Sect looked, and their faces changed dramatically. Tigerhawk is a particularly powerful kind of flying beast, named after its tiger-like face.

The disciples of the Five Elements Sect didn’t even consider joining forces to fight the enemy and immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

"Senior brother, are you okay?"

"I’m fine, junior brother. You go, I’ll stay behind to cover you."

"Let’s go together."

"If we go together, we won’t be able to leave. Let’s take advantage of Tigerhawk still adjusting its combat posture and hurry."

Lin Jiang hesitated whether to expose the existence of the Shadiaos. With Big Shadiao and Small Shadiao around, this mere third-stage Tigerhawk was nothing to fear.

"*laughter sound*"

Before the two could hesitate any longer, Zhang Wanjing appeared and with one sword strike, severely injured the Tigerhawk. The Tigerhawk fled in a sorry state.

"Don’t follow me."

Zhang Wanjing said a sentence and disappeared. Behind Zhang Wanjing, over ten level-three demonic creatures chased after him and fought.

Lin Jiang took a look and continued running. They were considered fast among the group, breaking free from the encirclement. However, more disciples from the Five Elements Sect were stopped by the demonic creatures, especially the group of Spirit Devouring Demonic Ants. Once surrounded, it was extremely terrifying.

"Senior Brother Guo, don’t disturb, Wu Yuan is here too."

When Lin Jiang and the others were far away from the battlefield, Nie Wuyuan finally appeared.

"Elder Nie has appeared, they are saved."

"Guo Yunfeng is really to blame this time."

Zhang Shuhua cursed loudly. This operation was led by Guo Yunfeng, with Zhang Wanjing strongly against it. Zhang Wanjing argued that the power of the Five Elements Sect alone was not enough to fight against the Wilderness demons.

Either they had to join forces with the Zhonghang Sect and the Cloud Sword Sect, or unite with many vassals and invest more power. However, Zhang Wanjing’s opinion was still forcefully vetoed by Guo Yunfeng.

"Darn it, even if you die, he won’t die. Go back."

Lin Jiang left a message and continued running towards the headquarters of the Five Elements Sect. It’s more important to save his life now. It’s not something they can get involved in with their level of strength. Let’s wait until they become more powerful.
