Ye Feng and Mo Ying exchanged a glance before they both looked towards the source of the noise, only to see a demi-transformed demon beast with the body of a human and the tail of a snake tearing through the fog to stand beside Little Wolf General.
“It’s the Black Patterned Serpent Demon!”
Ye Feng frowned and whispered.
All of a sudden, two demi-transformed demon beasts had arrived, and there was also a very powerful-looking Killing Array. Today was likely to be extremely dangerous.
“Another demi-transformed demon beast!”
“Oh, my God!”
“We’re done for!”
The members of the various sects felt like they had fallen into an icy pit, their bodies turned cold, and their eyes were filled with despair at the bleak reality.
Why would this happen?
We’re just here to mine, aren’t we?
Is it necessary for the Demon Race to go to such lengths?
The crowd wore expressions of sorrow and pain.
Watching the expressions on their faces, Little Wolf General sneered, “I can give you the life of that youngster, but I’ll take the lion’s share of the credit.”
“Agreed,” the Black Patterned Serpent Demon nodded.
After hearing the conversation between the two, Ye Feng’s expression darkened, “Take the lion’s share of the credit? It seems there’s an even stronger existence behind them, could it be the mastermind Demon General?”
Looking at the surrounding Killing Array, Ye Feng guessed that such an item would be very expensive; it was unlikely that the two demi-transformed demon beasts could afford it, so it must have been provided by the Demon General backing them.
At this moment, the sect masters of several middle-rank sects, including the Falling Mountain Sect, stepped forward together, their bodies bursting with spirit light, their faces determined: “Demons, are you really looking for mutual destruction?”
They were all at the ninth level of Qi Refinement, and if it really came to a battle for their lives, they might not be afraid of demi-transformed demon beasts. Even if they couldn’t win, they could fight to the death and severely injure their opponents.
Mockingly, Little Wolf General said, “Mutual destruction? You think too highly of yourselves. In my eyes, you’re nothing but small shrimps, unworthy of being called fish.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces flushed with anger.
We’re not even worthy of being called fish?
It was then that Little Wolf General took out two cracked black tokens – they were the soul tokens of Heixuan Gate Sect Leader and the Great Elder of the Tyrant Blade Sect – and said to Ye Feng: “You’re the one who killed those two fools, aren’t you?”
Ye Feng smiled, “You guess.”
“Guess your stars!” Little Wolf General angrily threw down the soul tokens.
The Black Patterned Serpent Demon’s slit pupils glinted coldly as she stared fixedly at Ye Feng, holding in her hand a half meter long Blue Blade. She licked her lips and said, “Boy, I have brought with me the treasure of my race’s inheritance. I will cut you into pieces, then take you to Fenhuo River to feed the fish!”
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, “A defeated soldier, and yet you dare speak of bravery?”
Upon hearing this, the Black Patterned Serpent Demon was immediately enraged, grabbing the Blue Blade and slashing towards Ye Feng.
“Get out of the way!”
Ye Feng charged forward and struck with the Spirit Origin Clock, which was met with a clang from the Black Patterned Serpent Demon’s blade and bounced back, with a blade mark surprisingly appearing on its surface.
“What kind of lousy blade is this, so sharp?” Ye Feng was shocked.
Seeing her Blue Blade’s edge roll, the Black Patterned Serpent Demon was even more astonished and said in disbelief, “My Blue Blade can even split lower-grade Spiritual Artifacts, but now it’s rolled?”
She stared at the Spirit Origin Clock, her eyes suddenly clouded with greed.
“What a powerful Spiritual Artifact,” Little Wolf General was surprised and immediately took out a Small Colored Flag about half a foot tall and sprayed it with demonic energy.
“Black Patterned Serpent Demon, stop playing. I’ll directly activate the great Formation and slay everyone,” said Little Wolf General, then immediately retreated to outside the Formation and waved the Core Formation Flag.
In an instant, fierce winds rose.
Members of the various sects were blown about in disarray.
But it was far from over, as many rocky tendrils emerged from the ground, launching an attack on everyone present.
“Quick, dodge!”
The Sect Master of Falling Mountain Sect pulled out a Spirit Sword and slashed, severing the attacking stone tendrils, but soon realized that the stone tendrils could not be completely cut and urgently called for everyone to dodge.
“I’m going to attack the Formation barrier!”
A ninth level Qi Refinement sect master formed hand seals and thrust his Spirit Sword heavily against the barrier, only to be repelled.
“Foolish, this is a semi-completed small Formation. No one below the Element Gathering Realm can break it,” Little Wolf General sneered.
At that moment, the Black Patterned Serpent Demon, holding the Blue Blade, came to the outside of the Formation, watching with Little Wolf General as the crowd struggled to defend against the Formation’s assault.
“Wait until their strength is almost depleted before you go in and reap,” Little Wolf General said to the Black Patterned Serpent Demon.
“Sure, I love nothing more than to watch them fall under my blade in agony,” the Black Patterned Serpent Demon said with a cruel smile.
At that moment, within the Misty Sect’s camp.
All the disciples formed a circle, standing on countless petals released by Jia Yulan’s spell “Falling Blooms in Profusion,” to prevent the stone tentacles from launching a surprise attack from below.
“Sect Master, even ‘Earth Escape’ is no match for this formation.”
Mo Ying said gravely.
Just now, they had attempted to use “Earth Escape” to flee but found themselves unable to meld into the earth.
Ye Feng shattered several stone tentacles lunging at him with a punch, his expression growing increasingly grave as he scanned the area and saw many sect disciples impaled by the stone tentacles, a sight too horrible to endure.
“Kid, savor the fear before death!”
The Black Patterned Serpent Demon laughed wildly.
The Little Wolf General also revealed a cold smile, waving the Core Formation Flag, as several stone tentacles thicker than a water barrel transformed into giant serpents, biting towards Ye Feng and the others.
At this moment, all disciples of the Misty Sect felt terror.
“Think you can kill me? You’re still too weak.”
But then, Ye Feng extended a hand, pinching a dull yellow talisman paper, two inches wide and five inches long, between his index and middle finger and tossed it into the air.
This was the Spirit Light Talisman, a reward from the System!
The talisman paper flew up to mid-air, its light rapidly blossoming, with dull yellow lightning stretching out in all directions, forming a semi-spherical shield with a diameter of twenty meters that enveloped Ye Feng and his disciples.
Those stone serpents, comparable to the peak of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement, bit the shield but were repelled.
“What kind of shield is this?”
The Little Wolf General’s face changed, having thought he could easily destroy the Misty Sect, only to find that Ye Feng still had such a means at his disposal.
“We’re saved!”
The disciples exclaimed joyfully.
Seeing Ye Feng’s shield, cultivators from other sects hurried over, pressing against the shield and calling out loudly for help.
That’s when the Black Patterned Serpent Demon suggested, “Attack from underground!”
“Good plan!”
The Little Wolf General waved the Core Formation Flag, and several stone serpents burrowed underground, circled around, and bit towards everyone on the surface.
“Sect Master Uncle, they’re coming from below, what do we do?” Jia Yulan heard the conversation between the Little Wolf General and the Black Patterned Serpent Demon, turned pale with fright, and disregarding her dignified image, she kept jumping on the spot.
“Don’t panic!”
Ye Feng said calmly.
Thud, thud, thud!
The next moment, a dull yellow light shield appeared beneath everyone’s feet, no matter how furiously the stone serpents tore and bit, they could not break through.
Seeing this, the disciples rejoiced.
Jia Yulan breathed a sigh of relief, patting her proud front and exhaling deeply, while behind her, Xia He and Qiu Ju continuously patted her back, trying to calm her down.
“If you have any more tricks, bring them on!”
Ye Feng waved his hand with confidence, not greatly harmed and extremely provocative, angering the Little Wolf General until his face was slightly contorted.
“Sect Master Ye, save us!”
“Sect Master Ye, as long as you save us, we can mine for the Misty Sect after this crisis is over!”
“I’m willing to give a hundred Spirit Stones!”
“Sect Master Ye, I can catch you ten wives!”
The leaders of various sects, seeing the strength of the Misty Sect’s shield, shouted themselves hoarse as if they had found a lifeline.
Seeing this, the disciples, except for Mo Ying who was unmoved, were after all young and kind-hearted, so they all looked at Ye Feng with pleading eyes.
“Alright, come on in!”
With a thought from Ye Feng, the cultivators who had been outside the shield passed through it and collapsed on the ground inside, their faces filled with relief and fear.
In an instant, all the surviving members from the other sects crowded in, totaling over seventy.
As for the others, they had already been strangled by the stone tentacles before the shield was even activated.
“This infuriates me!”
The Little Wolf General furiously threw the Core Formation Flag on the ground, trembling with rage, while the face of the Black Patterned Serpent Demon also looked somewhat unsightly.
