Chapter 38 Fierce battle!
However, Xia Yufeng, who was usually stern and unsmiling, mocked without any mercy: "Fellow Daoist Jin, I caught a cold yesterday and I'm afraid I can't participate in this mission. How about Chi Mumingyu and I stay here and watch you all fight?"
"Youngsters of the Xia family, do you perhaps wish to experience the methods of this Daoist?" Upon hearing this, Akagi Akira immediately retorted angrily.
"My sword is also incredibly sharp!" Xia Yuhui suddenly appeared at this moment, and then took out a flying sword from his storage bag and said.
Xia Yufeng: "You scoundrel from the Akagi family, come here, let me tear you apart."
Seeing that these two dared to be so arrogant, Akagi Akira could not restrain himself and wanted to make a move.
However, Jin Yeqiao, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally lost his temper and shouted, "Shut up!"
Both sides temporarily restrained themselves, but both stared sharply at each other, as if they would strike again at any moment.
Seeing that both sides had stopped, Jin Yeqiao said, "Fellow Daoists of the Akagi family, it is probably inappropriate for you to act this way. After all, this matter concerns the lives of all of us. If you were to flee this battle after suffering even the slightest injury, it would be hard to justify. It would be unfair to the other families, and they would certainly not agree to it."
At this moment, Akagi Akira suddenly turned his gaze to the three members of the Cai family, who had always had a close relationship with the Akagi family. However, the three members of the Cai family ignored their earnest gaze. After all, they were now at a critical moment of life and death, so how could they care about the lives of other outsiders? Therefore, they would not leave Akagi Akira here to watch them fight.
Seeing that even the Cai family remained silent, Akagi Akatsuki closed his eyes in despair. He knew he was doomed today. When he opened his eyes, he revealed a sinister look and stared intently at Xia Yufeng.
At this moment, he was already cursing the three members of the Xia family in his heart. If it weren't for their interference, he might have already settled down here. However, he was completely unaware that even if the three members of the Xia family hadn't spoken up to stop him, the other two families would definitely not have agreed.
"Fellow Daoist Akagi, why are you staring at me, a junior, with such a gaze? Could it be that you intend to use some underhanded tricks in the upcoming fierce battle?" Xia Guangzheng seemed to have seen through his thoughts and immediately began to speak sarcastically.
Upon hearing Xia Guangzheng's words, Jin Yeqiao immediately warned, "Remember, in the battle to come, even if you do not cooperate with each other, do not use despicable means. Otherwise, I will immediately kill him, and his clansmen will not be able to escape either."
Upon hearing Jin Yeqiao's words, Akagi Akatsuki's face grew even more gloomy, but he had no choice but to endure it.
Jin Yeqiao: "Alright, time waits for no one. This time, we have no choice but to fight head-on. Remember, when we start fighting, kill as many monsters as possible, otherwise, if we get into a protracted battle, it will be troublesome."
He wanted to take it slow, but he was afraid Yang Qilin wouldn't agree. After all, this was the Northern Frontier, and if a battle broke out, other demonic beasts would definitely come to cause trouble.
After saying this, he immediately led Jin Yenan and Jin Yushu up into the sky, and the other three families followed suit.
"When we make our move, don't fight too hard. Conserve your magic power. Don't stray too far from me, and remember to be wary of others." At this moment, Xia Guangzheng transmitted his voice to Xia Yuhui and Xia Yufeng.
The eleven people immediately took to the air on their swords and arrived above the mountain. As soon as they appeared, the monkey demons playing and frolicking below the mountain noticed them instantly. They bared their fangs and roared at them in a fit of rage. Some of them had already used their talents to unleash balls of fire and hurled them at them.
These demonic monkeys, known as Red-tailed Monkeys, are fire-attribute demonic beasts capable of unleashing small amounts of flame. Their sharp teeth and blades are incredibly hard. However, it is rare for such demonic monkeys to become Foundation Establishment level demons, thus classifying them as a low-level demonic beast race.
Jin Yeqiao deflected the fireballs with a few moves, then shouted angrily, "Attack!"
Having said that, he immediately cast a spell, "Hundred Swords Technique!"
Hundreds of flying swords suddenly appeared and fell downwards in an instant, pinning the target below to the ground.
Seeing this, the others immediately unleashed area-of-effect spells, and Xia Yuhui also immediately used the Fire Serpent Technique, frantically attacking the monsters below.
As the group unleashed their spells, the demonic monkeys below were decimated, leaving limbs and broken bodies scattered everywhere. However, the demonic beasts within the cave immediately rushed out, with the stronger ones leaping up to attack the group. Left with no choice, the group interrupted their spellcasting and charged down with their swords.
The moment the two sides clashed, the situation became overwhelmingly dire. Although the group of demonic monkeys was numerous, these family cultivators were all elites of their respective families, far superior to ordinary people. In fact, in terms of combat experience, they might even be more experienced than the disciples of the sects.
A hundred meters above the ground, Yang Qilin looked solemnly at the family cultivators fighting below and muttered to himself, "Judging from recent years, the sect may have made a mistake by overprotecting its disciples, resulting in their current combat strength being inferior to that of the family cultivators."
Below, Xia Yuhui instantly summoned four bamboo swords, reaping the surrounding demonic beasts with astonishing speed. The four flying swords moved with lightning speed, their blades enveloped in a layer of dazzling light. In an instant, they had carved out a vacuum zone around them, their power leaving everyone speechless.
On the other side, Xia Yufeng was equally impressive. Wielding a black iron staff, he swung it several times, smashing the charging demon monkey to pieces. Even when other demonic beasts got close, they could only leave a few shallow claw marks on his body.
This is the domineering nature of a body-refining cultivator.
As for Xia Guangzheng, a veteran late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, there's no need to elaborate. Unless he encounters a demonic beast equivalent to a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, other demonic beasts are nothing more than defeated opponents in just a few moves.
On the other side of the battlefield, Cai Xiangting stared at Xia Yuhui's four flying swords, his face turning extremely grim. He hadn't expected Xia Yuhui to dare display these four flying swords in front of him. Having once guarded Tiger Fang Forest, he naturally knew that these four flying swords were forged from the spirit bamboo of Tiger Fang Forest.
However, witnessing Xia Yuhui's imposing presence, he could only temporarily put these thoughts aside and focus on continuing to hunt down the monsters.
After nearly an hour of fierce fighting, all the monsters in the cave had rushed out and were engaged in a desperate battle with the two-legged beasts that had suddenly attacked their kind. After all, this was their territory, and any creature that stepped into this place would be attacked by them.
On Xia Yuhui's side, he was already in a terrible state, and his three flying swords had been destroyed by the monsters. Now, he only had four left, and these four flying swords were also partially damaged. If things continued like this, all four flying swords would probably be scrapped.
However, he had no intention of being heartbroken over these magical artifacts; at this moment, whether he could leave this place alive was still unknown.
After slaying another demonic beast, he immediately swallowed a few pills, held them in his mouth, and slowly refined them. Then, he scanned the battlefield with his divine sense again, and his expression grew increasingly grim. He discovered that a group of birds were fighting Yang Qilin a hundred meters above the ground, and Yang Qilin showed no intention of using his full strength. Instead, he was directly locked in a stalemate with the group of demonic beasts.
Xia Yuhui knew that if several people didn't die in this battle, Yang Qilin would definitely not let them go.
This gave rise to a different thought about the Guiyun Sect. His family paid a large amount of tribute to the sect every year, yet they treated his family like this. It was truly a case of the coldness of human relationships and the fickleness of the world.
