Greed would cause one to lose their rationality.
At that moment, the cultivators that surged into the valley were all excited and their eyes shone.
All they could see was the treasures of Elixir Pool Sect and instinctively, they ignored the dangers within the valley!
None of them wanted to fall behind others.
Elixir Yang Sect did not move.
Standing at the front, Tang Yu frowned slightly with a hesitant expression.
Her decision concerned the lives of the thousand odd cultivators behind her!
In less than two hours, the curtain of night would completely fall.
At that time, every cultivator's senses would be weakened in the fog of the night. However, that would not have much of an impact on the ancient living beings, mutants and ferocious beasts!
"Young Master, let's hurry and enter the valley! Stop hesitating!"
"If someone discovers the Elixir Pool Sect ruins first and sweeps away all the treasures, we'll have to return empty-handed."
"That's right. Glass Palace and Malevolent Earth Sect have already entered. There are a few thousand of us combined. How can we not defeat a bunch of beasts?"
When he heard that, Su Zimo sneered internally and shook his head gently.
Even if they had tens of thousands of cultivators, how could they compare to the number of demons that lived here all year round and multiplied, let alone the fact that they only had a few thousand cultivators?
Be it in terms of timing or location, they had no advantage at all!
A moment later, Tang Yu finally compromised when she heard the commotion of the cultivators behind her. Sighing helplessly, she waved her hand. "Let's enter the valley!"
At the back, everyone from Elixir Yang Sect charged into the valley.
According to their previous plan, the thousand odd Elixir Yang Sect cultivators would form a conical formation. Those with the lowest combat strength, such as Su Xiaoning and some Elixir Refinement Masters, would stand in the middle of the formation.
The outer perimeter of the conical formation would be formed by cultivators of Elixir Yang Sect's Battle Hall.
At the tip of the conical formation, the sharpest point would be formed by Su Zimo, Ji Chengtian and Yan Jun.
Su Zimo was in the middle while Ji Chengtian and Yan Jun were half a body's distance behind, supporting him from the left and right.
The moment they entered the valley, Su Zimo summoned 18 supreme-grade flying swords that hovered around him, ready to strike at any moment.
"The visibility is so low."
"That's right. I can only see about a hundred feet away."
As soon as the cultivators entered the valley, they were already discussing in low voices.
Ji Chengtian was at seven meridian Foundation Establishment and focused his gaze before nodding. "I can only see about a hundred feet or so. Zimo, how about you?"
"More or less."
Su Zimo said ambiguously.
In fact, after Su Zimo had opened his seven apertures, his eyesight had become extremely strong. Even in this fog, he could see things a few hundred feet away!
If the fog had little effect on the Demonic Beasts, then it had no effect on Su Zimo at all!
Many cultivators groped their way forward.
Not long after, the roars of ferocious beasts began to reverberate in the valley, mixed with many heart-wrenching screams.
These voices made one's hair stand on end, making one feel uneasy.
"Has someone already encountered a Direbeast?"
"Probably."
In the crowd, some cultivators were discussing in low voices.
With their line of sight obstructed and the constant roars of exotic beasts ringing out from the valley, everyone's initial hot-bloodedness gradually cooled down, and they became somewhat restless.
Suddenly, Su Zimo's voice sounded.
"Everyone, be careful! There are large numbers of Ancient Blood Mosquitoes around us!"
Everyone was shocked.
Blood Mosquitoes were the most common type of spirit beast in Tianhuang Mainland. They were only the size of a fist and loved sucking the blood of other living beings, including humans.
Although they were weak, the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes were much more terrifying!
The Ancient Blood Mosquitoes were living beings of the ancient era and had long gone extinct in Tianhuang Mainland. They were extremely large and were twice the size of humans. When they flapped their wings, they would let out a buzzing sound.
Although the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes' bodies were relatively weak, their mouthparts that sucked the blood of other living beings were equivalent to their killing weapons and were extremely terrifying!
Their mouthparts were long and slender, sharp and indestructible. They could pierce through the flesh of many living beings with ease and could suck the blood of an ordinary spirit demon dry within dozens of breaths!
What was even more frightening was that the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes lived in groups!
The moment the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes ventured out to hunt, they would swarm over in swarms. Even remnant beasts that could not dodge in time would be sucked into corpses in the blink of an eye.
The expressions of many cultivators present changed when they heard the words' Ancient Blood Mosquitoes'.
If they had truly encountered the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes, they would be extremely lucky if half of the thousand odd cultivators were left alive!
However, after a while, none of them caught sight of the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes and they could not help but mutter internally.
"Where are the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes?"
"Bloody hell, it was a false alarm!"
"What kind of person is that? How can he say something like that so casually?"
Many cultivators could not help but grumble.
Yan Jun crossed his arms at the side and watched the commotion gloatingly.
Tang Yu frowned slightly. She knew that Su Zimo would not joke around.
However, after waiting for a while and seeing that there was still no movement around, Tang Yu could not help but ask, "Fellow Daoist Su, are there really Ancient Blood Mosquitoes?"
"Of course."
Su Zimo nodded.
The moment he said that, everyone heard a faint buzzing sound from the flapping of wings that was getting clearer!
Psst!
Everyone's expressions changed starkly.
This time round, no one doubted Su Zimo's words.
However, no one could understand how Su Zimo managed to discover the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes so early on.
Tang Yu narrowed her eyes and her gaze flickered as thoughts raced through her mind.
By the time Su Zimo gave the warning, the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes had already flown a few thousand feet away.
Could it be that Su Zimo could see the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes that were a few thousand feet away?
Tang Yu was shocked when she thought of that possibility.
Before she could think further, a large swarm of Ancient Blood Mosquitoes had already appeared before everyone. In fact, Tang Yu could even see the scarlet eyes of the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes and their slender mouthparts that were stained with blood!
Many of them could not hold it in any longer and roared, summoning their spirit weapons and attacking the dense swarm of Ancient Blood Mosquitoes.
Instantly, spirit light shone brightly in the fog and sword qi was like frost!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The flying swords of many cultivators pierced over. However, the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes moved their mouthparts gently and collided with the flying swords, causing the sound of metal clashing!
Many flying swords were repelled and returned empty-handed!
The distance between both parties shortened once more!
Flying swords could not break through the defense of the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes!
Many cultivators were flustered and hurriedly summoned their spirit talismans and released their spirit arts to stop the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes temporarily.
However, there was a limited number of spirit talismans and spirit arts were extremely draining – they could not be released frequently.
After defending against the first wave of attacks of the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes, they still had to use their flying swords to defend against their enemies.
Poof! Poof! Poof!
Right then, the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes in the void at the front were sliced in half by flying swords and fell one after another.
Tang Yu focused her attention and saw that it was Su Zimo controlling 18 supreme-grade flying swords. Without forming a sword formation, they caused immense damage to the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes!
Right then, Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "Don't let the Ancient Blood Mosquitoes get close to you. The mouthparts of those demon beasts are extremely lethal and indestructible. They can even defend against flying swords. Everyone, there's no need to fight them head-on. Make use of the agility of your flying swords to circle to their sides or backs and kill them easily! "
When they heard that, everyone was invigorated and attacked according to his instructions. Indeed, it was effective and countless Ancient Blood Mosquitoes were killed, staining the skies with blood.
