C678 Fighting the Serrated Horde Alone
Because of the continuous slaughter of the sawtooth demon in this area, a heaven and earth pouch at Ye Hong Tian's waist was filled with sawtooth demon beast cores, all of which were at the eighth level of true essence.
The reason why he didn't convert the beast cores of these Serrated Demons into points was because Ye Hong Tian felt that his Sword Sect's points were already enough. Besides raising the Blackheaven Sect's points to 40,000, the rest of the points were all in the Cosmos Sack.
"How much is it?" Yan Duanchen, who had just taken out a beast core from a corpse of a serrated monster, came to Ye Hong Tian's side and asked.
"Including this one of yours, there are exactly a hundred of them!" Ye Hongtian said with a smile.
Hearing this number, Yan Duanchen clicked his tongue with a hint of regret and envy on his face.
Ye Hongtian naturally saw the expression on Yan Duanchen's face and smiled bitterly. He guessed that Yan Duanchen was envious of his ability to directly absorb beast cores.
Beast cores were an extremely pure energy. The reason why they were pure was that when beasts condensed beast cores, the impure energy would be pushed into the outer shell.
Therefore, if he did not invite some experts to convert the beast core's energy, swallowing it would be no different than swallowing a poison. It was no different from courting death.
"Chirp chirp!"
A strange chirp came from not far away, making everyone immediately raise their spirits.
Ye Hongtian looked at where the voice came from and frowned, "How come we have met so many sawtooth demons these days?"
"I don't know either." Yan Duanchen also looked serious, "Maybe they are close to the exit."
As he spoke, black smoke rose from his body, and the Night Walker suit made of black smoke instantly covered his body. Two daggers emitting black smoke also appeared in his hands. Coupled with the surrounding darkness, he immediately hid in the darkness.
Yan Duanchen hid in the darkness. Wang Mohen came behind Ye Hongtian. Gao Yuling and Green Lotus were protected in the middle. Ding Fen used his soul power to create a barrier around him.
"Chirp chirp!"
That strange sound rang again, and then Ye Hongtian used his finger as a sword to send out a sword qi.
The sword qi passed through the barrier created by Ding Fen and flew out. A "puchi" sound was heard, and then a serrated demon's head rolled to the edge of everyone's field of vision.
In this kind of dark environment, the only people who could attack from a long distance were Ye Hong Tian and Ding Fen, these two people who had soul power.
Ding Fen needed to build a protective shield, so the attack was naturally left to Ye Hong Tian to be in charge. Fortunately, there were not many serrated demons that came every time, so Ye Hong Tian easily blocked them.
But this time, it didn't seem to be that easy. Ye Hongtian's expression was very serious from the moment he heard the chirping sound. There was even cold sweat on his forehead.
Suddenly, Ye Hong Tian felt the ground shake violently. Three or four sawtooth demons had already pounced on Ding Fen's defensive shield and started eating.
Every time he took a bite, the protective shield built with soul power would shake violently. Seeing this, Ye Hongtian hurriedly killed the three or four sawtooth demons.
Just as he finished killing these few demons, more sawtooth demons pounced on Ding Fen's protective shield, making Ding Fen struggle even more.
"This is bad. There are too many of them this time. In this kind of environment, we can't casually pull apart the distance. We have to think of a way to retreat." Ye Hong Tian said as he killed the sawtooth demons on the protective shield.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Duanchen, who had been hiding in the darkness, suddenly appeared beside him. There was a bite mark on his arm, and a large chunk of flesh was gone.
He took out a Bone Healing Pill from his Cosmos Sack and swallowed it. Then, he sat down with his legs crossed, and drew the medicinal power to his arm.
"Hong Tian, this time, it's a bit troublesome. There are more of them than the last time we met, and they even used a strategy. I was tricked by them." Yan Duanchen said after he had recovered a little bit from his injuries.
When he finished speaking, the wound on his arm had almost fully recovered. He slowly stood up.
"I just walked around there once and saw over fifty serrated demons. Ding Fen's protective shield can't hold on for too long. In this kind of environment, it is somewhat difficult for us to deal with these serrated demons." Yan Duanchen continued.
Ye Hongtian clenched his fist when he heard this. He turned around and looked at Ding Fen, whose body was drenched in sweat. He gritted his teeth and revealed a crazy look in his eyes.
"I'll help you illuminate your surroundings later. Look which side of the sawtooth demon will break through there at the very least. I'll follow right after that."2
After saying this and asking for other people's opinions, Ye Hongtian took a step forward and took back the purple flame that was originally used to illuminate the surroundings.
The purple flame was retracted by Ye Hong Tian. This time, everyone really became blind. They could not see anything around them.
The next second, a dazzling white light lit up. Ye Hong Tian's entire body was like the sun, emitting a strong white light.
The moment the white light was released, everyone looked at Ye Hong Tian in surprise. Yan Duanchen then remembered what he had said to him just now. He immediately looked around and started to search for the path with fewer sawtooth demons.
With Ye Hong Tian's illumination this time, Yan Duan Chen could clearly see the paths and layout around him.
He found that this was a place for practicing martial arts. It was like a training ground, and there were no forks in the road.
He quickly found the direction with the least number of sawtooth demons. Yan Duanchen shouted loudly, attracting everyone's attention. He then signaled for everyone to run in that direction.
However, when he had already flown a distance away, he realized that other than Wang Mohen, no one else had moved. He could not help but feel a headache coming on.
He turned around and hugged Ding Fen. Then, he gave Wang Mohen a look and asked Wang Mohen to take away Gao Yuling and Green Lotus. In the blink of an eye, he had already killed two of the sawtooth demons and escaped from the encirclement of the sawtooth demons.
Wang Mohen saw that Yan Duanchen had already left. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Gao Yuling and Green Lotus' shoulders, then disappeared from here in a flash.
After everyone had disappeared, a smile appeared on Ye Hongtian's face. The dazzling white light on his body gradually dimmed.
"Ye Hongtian! Don't die!"
A loud roar came from the direction where everyone escaped. Ye Hongtian's body shook and he laughed loudly.
"Hahaha, how could I die here? The Serrated Demon doesn't have the presence of a Divine Origin Realm. If you want to kill me, I would at least need to be a Divine Origin Realm powerhouse."
As soon as he finished speaking, a ball of lightning had already formed between Ye Hong Tian's eyebrows. With a thought, he flew to a place not far ahead.
Boom!
The explosion was deafening. The entire place lit up the moment the thunder ball exploded. Ye Hongtian vaguely saw a door that looked like an exit.
However, it was only for a moment. Ye Hongtian didn't see it clearly. He only remembered the general direction. He had to find the exit after he confirmed it.
This Terminator Thunder Pearl had killed more than half of the sawtooth demon in front of him. The sawtooth demon seemed to have realized that Ye Hongtian was in danger. It rushed towards Ye Hongtian in a group.
"Unfortunately, I can't use the Nirvana Thunder Pearl anymore. Otherwise, these sawtooth demons would have all died. Now, I can only rely on my close combat skills. Come on!"
