471: C471 Retreat

C471 Retreat

"Boom …"

At this moment, the battle in the air had reached its climax. After Meng Zhi and the rest managed to gain enough time, Old Woman finally made her move.

Soul power was like a flood as it explosively shot out in all directions. During this process, it constantly interweaved and changed, finally forming numerous obscure and profound symbols.

These symbols were like mercury, but the power they contained was extremely strong and heavy. In the sky, a silver rain of light fell!

"This is …"

The pupils of the Demonic Beast shrank intensely. At this moment, it gave birth to a strong sense of danger, even if a being as strong as it was facing Old Woman's accumulated energy attack, it had no choice but to face it head on. However, even if it wanted to dodge, it had nowhere, let alone Meng Zhi who was holding it back.

The scorching and terrifying sword qi was as thick as a mountain, and layer upon layer of it was sealing off the sky. Along with the silver light rain, countless lines were drawn in the air, and the space began to distort violently.

"Swoosh!"

Meng Zhi's figure appeared, and at the moment, he looked to be in a sorry state. There were many holes on his clothes, and most importantly, his originally strong and vigorous aura had declined by the naked eye in just half a day's worth of effort. It could be imagined how much he had paid to delay this level five Demonic Beast.

However, the price paid was worth it. Even the Late Period Of Fifth Level Demonic Beast, when facing the fatal and terrifying attacks of the two, especially Old Woman's mercury-like rain of light, each tiny silver rune was enough to tear the air apart. The body of the Demonic Beast, which was as strong as Late Period Of Fifth Level, also suffered the most obvious injuries in an instant.

"Pfft!"

The scarlet blood splattered everywhere, and the Demonic Beast that had hidden in the shadows finally revealed its true appearance under this wave of berserk attacks. It was a Demonic Beast with a tiger beast's snake body, every inch of its flesh and blood was as clear as clear glass, like the most exquisite artwork. Although its body did not look tall, it had an imposing aura that could not be angered, and even from a distance, one could feel an extremely strong pressure.

At this moment, the Demonic Beast's body was not damaged at all by Meng Zhi's sword qi. Instead, under the mercury-like rain of light, the Demonic Beast's flesh was corroded, and obvious wounds appeared on the surface.

Just like a porcelain bottle that was on the verge of shattering, it seemed as though it would explode in the air in the next moment!

"The two of you successfully infuriated me."

"So I decided not to play with you anymore."

Under Meng Zhi and Old Woman's astonished gazes, a light green unknown energy suddenly appeared on the surface of its body. Its body, which was riddled with holes, was instantly restored to its original state at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.

"How is this possible!" Old Woman cried out in disbelief.

"This beast is hiding its strength!" Meng Zhi spat out a few words with great difficulty, his face unusually ugly to behold. He had originally thought that the strength of this Demonic Beast would be equivalent to an expert of the Seventh Layer Of Sect Master, but from the looks of it, it was probably enough to rival an expert of the Eighth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master.

Even though Old Woman and his cultivation had already stepped into the Seventh Layer Of Sect Master, facing a terrifying Demonic Beast that could match up to Eighth Layer Of Martial Tao Sect Master, he naturally did not have much confidence. The difference in Martial Tao Sect Master Stage was just a small realm, and the difference in strength was like heaven and earth.

"Your judgement is very accurate." The beautiful lady frowned slightly. If Old Woman and Meng Zhi were unable to stop this Demonic Beast, then everyone here, including her, would be annihilated.

Lu Chen glanced at her but didn't say anything. He knew better than anyone what to do next.

"Eight Pagoda!"

In an instant, the entire sky darkened, and a shadow even larger than a mountain appeared. The shadow was shaped like a sharp tower, but on the surface, it was engraved with the pattern of birds and beasts. The moment it appeared, it frantically sucked the surrounding nature spirit energy, and the might coming from it caused Meng Zhi and Old Woman's expressions to change.

At this moment, everyone felt suffocated, as if they could predict that the moment the Emptiness Shadow descended, it would be enough to crush anyone to death.

If he did not escape now, then he would completely lose all chances to reach this realm. To become a Demonic Beast of this realm, his battle power would far surpass any profound practitioner of the same realm, and once it erupted, it would be difficult for him to defend himself with his current strength. After all, there was a huge gap between their realms, especially when the difference between Innate Realm began, every realm and stage was like the difference between clouds and mud, not to mention the difference of a very large realm!

Even if Lu Chen grasped the invincible Arcane Arts, with his current cultivation level, it would be good if he could unleash even a tenth of the power.

The beautiful woman, who was also aware of the severity of the situation, said something to Meng Zhi and Old Woman from afar, allowing the two who had lost their sense of propriety to recover. At the same time, Hu and several other martial arts Sect Master Expert s also gathered towards Lu Chen and Gu Ruoyun.

"Don't fight it head on, let's delay the beast first." Meng Zhi gestured to Old Woman and pounced towards the Level 5 Demonic Beast with his sharp sword. From the looks of it, he was planning to take the initiative.

Old Woman's eyes flickered. She gritted her teeth and followed suit.

"Commander Meng, stay behind. We need to leave immediately." Without further ado, the beautiful woman gave the order directly.2

Under the protection of Hu and the others, she headed in another direction without the slightest worry that Lu Chen would not follow her.

"I'm afraid it won't be that simple after this." Lu Chen frowned. However, at this moment, he could only follow. It would be safer if he followed beside the beautiful lady and the others.

In the air, that shadow that was even larger than a mountain slowly descended. However, under the combined efforts of the two high ranking Sect Master Expert s, Meng Zhi and Old Woman, a short period of delay appeared. The Demonic Beast of Late Period Of Fifth Level and the two of them exploded in an even more intense battle.

The two of them were very strong, and at this time, they continued to use their cultivation techniques, regardless of the cost, they exploded with their peak strength, but because of the huge disparity in realm, they were still pushed back step by step in front of the Demonic Beast.

However, with the restriction of the two, even if the level five Demonic Beast sensed Lu Chen and the others leaving, it would still be difficult to split its attention and give chase. It could only watch as they left.
