C1132 Sacrifice and Self-sacrifice
Liu Xuan's judgment was right, but she still underestimated the Strange Beast's determination to keep them. As they retreated, a few loud roars could be heard from the top of the mountain. Then, the Strange Beast, who was pretending to escape, changed its direction. It rushed towards them, and behind them... Suddenly, a dozen or so Strange Beast appeared and blocked their path. Liu Xuan's prediction was not wrong at all. These Strange Beast... It's the ones that escaped from them.1
"Kill! Kill them all as quickly as possible." Liu Xuan decisively ordered. At this moment, the Strange Beast jumped out. Needless to say, it must have been affected by those few roars. Although she did not know the exact meaning, it was definitely an order.
The Thunder Legion instantly unleashed all their firepower. However, these Strange Beast were the ones that had escaped from their hands. None of them were weak. If it was just one Strange Beast, they were confident that they could kill it in minutes. However, with more than a dozen of them together, eliminating them wasn't something that could be easily solved with just a few words.
Everyone knew in their hearts that if they couldn't eliminate this batch of Strange Beast... Then, it would be difficult for them to escape once the guy on both sides of the mountain came down. They were all fighting with all their strength. They saw that the half-Strange Beast had already fallen to the ground and was no longer moving. Give them a little more time to eliminate these guys and retreat safely. There was no problem at all. However, the figures of the Strange Beast appeared on both sides at the same time. Amidst the roars, they rushed towards them.
"Let's go!" Liu Xuan ordered once again. If they did not leave now, it would be difficult for them to leave. Although there were still eight Strange Beast fighting with them, they could use their strongest strength to delay the eight Strange Beast for a while and cover the retreat of the others. It would not be a problem at all.
"Roar!" Seeing Liu Xuan and the others' intentions, the Strange Beast actually roared in unison. It was as if it had ignited a small universe and its combat strength had increased by a large margin. It was swearing to keep them alive!
"Go, you guys hurry up and leave, I'll stop him!" Seeing that it was impossible to retreat, sacrifices and self-sacrifice were unavoidable. Someone took the initiative to take on the task of stalling.
"Hurry up and leave, don't hesitate! Otherwise, we won't be able to leave." Liu Xuan anxiously urged the Great Sage. With a wave of her long sword, a sword shadow covered the Strange Beast in front of her. The sharp sword qi forced the Strange Beast to dodge. The people who were fighting with the Strange Beast instantly broke away from the battle and retreated. Liu Xuan turned around and attacked the other Strange Beast to help the people.
It seemed that they could not drag it on any longer. If they dragged it on any longer, even Liu Xuan would not be able to leave. Liu Xuan silently said in her heart, "Apologies," and left. The Strange Beast on the east and west sides arrived in a few seconds. After joining the battle, the remaining people were quickly taken care of. With a furious roar, more than half of the Strange Beast actually chased in the direction where Liu Xuan and the rest fled. As for the remaining Strange Beast... The rest of the Strange Beast were actually cleaning up the battlefield, hanging all the corpses up to the top of the mountain. Some were human, some were Strange Beast. This scene was a little strange, but Liu Xuan and the others did not see it.
One chased, and the other fled. With Liu Xuan and the others' speed, it was impossible to escape from the Strange Beast's pursuit in a straight line. Except for a few people who had a huge advantage in speed, the rest of them would be gradually swallowed by the Strange Beast. Liu Xuan and the others began to plan as they fought while fleeing. This was the only way. If they stopped and fought with the Strange Beast army, they would be able to minimize their losses. Perhaps not many of them would be able to survive. They would retreat as they fought. They would be able to fight the Strange Beast for a period of time. Within the Strange Beast... Not all the Strange Beast possessed an incomparably fast speed. For example, the white eagle was the fastest one.
Liu Xuan would never have thought that with this retreat, in just two days, they did not manage to reach the height of a thousand meters. Sometimes, they would see that they were only dozens of meters away from the entrance of the secret passage. However, they could not get past it, and as long as they got close to it... They had to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, the white eagle in the sky would definitely capture them like rabbits. It did not look big, but this fellow was definitely the one who gave Liu Xuan the biggest headache these two days.
Once again, she repelled the Strange Beast Group and the white eagle. Liu Xuan looked at the white shadow in the sky and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Somehow, she had a feeling. These few days, it was not them who were hunting for the Strange Beast. Instead, it had become the Strange Beast and the hunters. They were the real prey.
"This won't do. If this continues... Perhaps no one will be able to leave." This was a type of innate talent, not the innate sixth sense of a woman. It is Liu Xuan's unique innate talent. She had a feeling. The Strange Beast did this for a purpose. She did not know what this goal was. But if this continued, then to them... Therefore, they had to leave. Even if they had to abandon a small portion of them, they still had to leave.
After explaining their plan and thoughts, everyone fell silent. The feeling these two days gave people a sense of grievance. Not to mention being chased by the Strange Beast for two days, they still needed to use bait to escape. This was even more aggravating. They wouldn't do such a thing. It seemed like there was nothing he could do. He remained silent. A man in his fifties said, "I'll handle the one in the sky, everyone must leave as soon as possible. Don't keep fighting. If you can break through this barrier... We absolutely can't turn back and leave with our things. Otherwise, the sacrifice of so many people will be in vain. "
"I'll stay with Hall Master Wang." A mother-in-law in her sixties smiled and did not wait for the others to object. The granny said, "We're old now. We're already satisfied that we can cross this threshold in our lives. All of you are still young. You are the mainstay of Heavenly Mystery Pavilion. I believe that with the things we have obtained this time, many of you will be able to break through to the Spirit Level. A group of twenty to thirty year old Spirit Level warriors, compared to an old lady like me who has just broken through to the Spirit Level at eighty to ninety years old. Everyone knows what is more important, and my old hag knows better. I only hope that you can remember my sacrifice today. I need to cultivate with all my might so that I can enter the Spirit Level as soon as possible. If we had a dozen or twenty Spirit Level warriors today, I'm afraid we wouldn't be in such a sorry state. Alright, let's stop here. No one needs to stop us. Xun Er, give the order."
"Thank you, seniors!" Liu Xuan bowed in a serious manner. The others bowed one after another. Some of them could not bear to shed tears, but Liu Xuan firmly held the tears in her eyes and quickly formulated a plan. They took a deep breath and rushed towards the secret passage again.
"Elder sister, you and I have worked together for 60 years. Today, we can die together on this sacred mountain. This is a good story. I will go first. " Before the entrance, the white eagle pounced down once again. Hall Master Wang said with a smile before leaping up. A sharp palm wind covered the white eagle as it flapped its wings to block in front of it. Bang! Bang! The white eagle was pushed back by the force of the palm attack. With a flap of its wings, it sent Hall Master Wang flying.
"Boom!" A saber light containing a scorching aura landed on the white eagle's body. The white eagle cried out in pain and flapped its wings. Two sharp wind blades attacked the old lady. The old lady swung her saber in a flash. On the other side, hall Master Wang got up from the ground. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and charged forward once again. He only had one target, the white eagle in the sky.
