"We … We … can't beat it!" There were already people in the crowd who had the intention to retreat. Two female practitioners had already summoned their flying swords, turned around, and were planning to flee for their lives.
"Don't move!" Chen Yi was just about to stop them, but in the end, he was not in time. With a leap, that demonic beast instantly disappeared. A moment later, it appeared in front of the two female practitioners who were fleeing for their lives, and spat out a ball of flames from its mouth.
The two of them did not even have the time to scream, as they had already turned into ashes.
It seemed like this mother beast had already been enraged, and would not let anyone here go. Zhu Yao clenched her fists, and tried her best to suppress the fear in the depths of her heart. Taking the opportunity when the demonic beast was spitting out flames, she cast a wood-type mystic art, materialized countless vines, and bound the demonic beast's four limbs. The demonic beast did not notice for a moment, and was dragged onto the ground.
"Now!" Zhu Yao loudly said. "We can't let it teleport to another place." Out of the ten-man team, only Zhu Yao, Wang Xuzhi, Lu Cha, Xiao Yi, and the injured little fatty Zhao were left.
Earlier, its speed was extremely fast, and just by looking at it, it looked as though it ran over. However, Zhu Yao realized, it basically did not have any sprinting movements. It was not that its speed was fast, but this Risefire Beast knew how to teleport.
Wang Xuzhi and Xiao Yi were the first to react. One after another, they materialized their Sword Intents, and attacked towards the demonic beast. The Sword Intents that only Azoth-stage practitioners could comprehend, could not be compared to spiritual swords. The Sword Intents carried the user's strong will, and with a single slash, the Risefire Beast was already bleeding.
The Risefire Beast seemed to have become even more furious, and began to struggle with all its might. Zhu Yao gradually felt a little powerless. How could just a few vines bind this seventh-ranked demonic beast for a long period of time?
"Lu Cha!" Zhu Yao shouted to the person at the side who was still in a daze. "Hurry and help!"
Lu Cha was startled, as she hurriedly raised her hand and summoned an icicle.
"The hell! Don't use ice! "Zhu Yao could not help but curse out. This lady must have forgotten to bring her brain with her when she left home!
Unfortunately, it was already too late. That icicle had already charged straight towards the demonic beast. The moment it came into contact with the demonic beast's body, the flames on the Risefire Beast's body instantly surged, and the vines she painstakingly summoned were completely burnt. The Risefire Beast's figure flashed, and had already appeared behind Lu Cha while spewing out flames.
Lu Cha instantly widened her eyes, her face had already turned deathly pale, her eyes filled with despair.
The Risefire Beast had already opened its mouth to bite down, but suddenly, a blood-colored figure suddenly charged out, knocked Lu Cha away, and took her place to be bitten.
It was Little Fatty Zhao!
Even Zhu Yao was dumbfounded. However, this was not the time to be in a daze. With her fastest speed, Zhu Yao flew over, pulled up Lu Cha who was already scared silly on the ground, and hurriedly distanced herself from the Risefire Beast. Little Fatty Zhao didn't even have time to look at Lu Cha before he was cut into two.
Lu Cha, who had been rescued, still had a terrified look on her face. She didn't even dare to turn her head to look at little fatty Zhao, who had already died without a complete corpse. She was so scared that her tears flowed out uncontrollably, and her entire body was trembling.
In the end, Zhu Yao could not help but raise her hand and give her a slap. "Are you a motherf * cking idiot? Don't you know that Risefire Beasts are impervious to fire and water!?" Just did she know why she was unable to freeze the demonic beast earlier!?
"I … I used ice!" Lu Cha replied, feeling wronged.
"Ice is also water, idiot!"
She clearly knew that it was her ice that had forced the Risefire Beast out of its flames earlier, yet she still dared to release her ice over. You must be a freaking monkey sent by a clown!
Zhu Yao was no longer in the mood to educate a brain-damaged child. Summoning her flying sword, she once again cast a defensive barrier on herself, and warned the others. "Everyone, set up a defensive barrier. The Risefire Beast can still flash." Right now, she could no longer care about hiding her identity, she had to save her own life first.
This time, Lu Cha did not go into a daze, and obediently placed down a barrier. Zhu Yao silently glanced at little fatty Zhao on the ground, and suddenly felt a little sad for him.

The moment she circulated her spiritual energy, Zhu Yao's sword was instantly filled with purple lightning bolts. Without any hesitation, she flew up, and slashed towards that demonic beast.
"That demonic beast's scales are extremely sturdy, you won't be able to cut …" Before Chen Yi could even finish his warning, the demonic beast let out a miserable cry. With a bang, it was slashed onto the ground by Zhu Yao's sword, and blood was flowing out from a palm-sized wound on its body. "Junior Sister Steamed Bun, you …"
The hell was junior-martial sister Steamed Bun? Zhu Yao glared at him, and suddenly recalled that she seemed to have never told them her name. Wang Xuzhi did not ask either, and simply kept calling her little Steamed Bun. They couldn't have thought that her name was Steamed Bun, right!?
The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched, as she turned around and seriously dealt with the demonic beast. That strike earlier was purely a coincidence. Most probably, even the demonic beast did not know that her sword contained lightning that was specialized in restraining demonic beasts, which was why she managed to injure it. She would not be so lucky next time.
As expected, the demonic beast on the ground disappeared again. Zhu Yao's heart clenched, as she did not know where it would appear next.
"Little Steamed Bun, are you alright?" Wang Xuzhi flew over, and stood with his back against hers. "You injured it, so it will definitely attack you first. Be careful."
As expected, in the next moment, the demonic beast appeared above her head, and pounced towards them with its bloody mouth wide open. However, it bit onto the defensive barrier and blocked it. It was the sword tassel her master gave her, which blocked this fatal blow. She would not be so lucky next time.
Zhu Yao and Wang Xuzhi hurriedly retreated, while Chen Yi and Xiao Yi rushed over as well.
Xiao Yi's Sword Intent had already been trained to a very proficient level. A golden sword surrounded his surroundings, as though it had a life of its own, it emitted out a piercingly cold sword aura.
However, the demonic beast did not face them head on, instead, its figure flashed, and it once again disappeared.
"We have to force it out!" Chen Yi clenched his fists. Most probably, this demonic beast wanted to exhaust them to death. Although they could use their own defensive barrier, it could only defend against a single attack. If it were to attack a few more times, none of them would be able to withstand it.
"I have a way to force it out!" Zhu Yao raised her own sword and said.
Everyone seemed to have only just realized the lightning glow on her sword, especially Chen Yi. "You … You're a disciple of Jade Forest Mountain?"
Zhu Yao did not deny it either. In any case, they would find out sooner or later. "From what I see, even if that demonic beast were to appear in a flash, it shouldn't exceed a radius of five kilometers. I will use lightning to force it out, but I only have three breaths of time. The three of you must kill it within this period of time."
The expressions of the three of them were a little solemn. Even if they managed to force the demonic beast out, it was after all, a seventh-ranked existence, an existence at the early stages of Nascent Soul. With just three Azoth practitioners like them, they were afraid …
"We have to at least try!" Unexpectedly, the one who agreed was Xiao Yi. "Junior-martial sister Steamed Bun will force the demonic beast out, and we will use our full strength to attack it."
"…" Steamed Bun, your sister!
After the few of them finished their discussion, they moved into a formation on the ground. Lu Cha awkwardly moved over as well, and stood in the middle of the four of them. Zhu Yao pouted, and did not bother about her.
Stabbing the longsword in her hand into the ground, she held onto the sword hilt with a single hand, circulated the lightning spiritual energy in her body, and activated the Lightning Guiding Art towards the ground.
The ground which was still calm earlier began to emit lightning glow with the longsword as the center, and it was rapidly expanding in all directions. In just a moment, it had already filled a radius of five kilometers. Zhu Yao focused her attention, and no longer continued to expand outwards, instead, she began to directly attract lightning.
In an instant, countless lightning sparks flashed from the ground into the sky. Like growing branches and leaves, they extended straight towards the sky, and as far as the eye could see, it was filled with white lightning sparks.
With a long roar, a gigantic beast appeared in the sky above them. Its entire body was covered with lightning, and it seemed to be struggling in extreme pain.
"It's out!"
Chen Yi immediately materialized countless spiritual swords, and attacked towards the demonic beast. Xiao Yi and Wang Xuzhi did not hesitate either, circulated the spiritual energy in their bodies, and attacked.
Zhu Yao reduced the output of her spiritual energy, and shrunk the range of the lightning sparks, allowing them to only surround the surroundings of that demonic beast, and restrict its movements.
The few attacks were finally effective, and that demonic beast's body was already filled with wounds. However, this was still not enough to obtain victory. Xiao Yi's expression turned cold. The Sword Intent which was still a small sword earlier, suddenly turned into countless sharp blades, and attacked towards the demonic beast in an airtight manner.
Zhu Yao was stunned. Such a strong Sword Intent, as expected of someone who had activated his protagonist's cheat, his levelling speed was really fast. Her lightning sparks had already disappeared. This large-scale Lightning Guiding Art could only be maintained for three breaths of time, any longer, and she would not be able to hold on.
However, looking at it now, Xiao Yi's Sword Intent could achieve the same effect as well.
Zhu Yao powerlessly sat on the ground, and could only occasionally replenish a few lightning sparks during the gaps between their attacks. That demonic beast was evidently no longer a match for them, as it could no longer control its body, and fell from the sky.
"Now!" Chen Yi shouted out loudly. Xiao Yi and Wang Xuzhi simultaneously condensed two gigantic Sword Intents, and immediately attacked towards the demonic beast.
Seeing that victory was in sight, the Risefire Beast was already heavily injured, and it was definitely unable to dodge this Sword Intent.
It suddenly let out a loud roar, and its two bloodstained eyes instantly emitted out a red glow. The flames on its body suddenly began to rise explosively, and the flames actually turned from red to black. Even Xiao Yi and Wang Xuzhi's Sword Intents were dispersed by the flames.
The two of them puked out a mouthful of blood. The Sword Intent's backlash. Earlier, they had exerted a great amount of strength, and the current backlash was as severe as it was. Currently, most likely, they no longer had the strength to move.
"It's trying to forcefully level up!" Chen Yi stared at that demonic beast with a face of disbelief, and the surrounding spiritual energy had already begun to riot.
If a demonic beast were to forcefully level up, it would definitely cause the spiritual energy to riot. If the demonic beast succeeded in levelling up, it would attract Tribulation Lightning, and if it failed, the demonic beast would self-destruct and die. Was this Risefire Beast planning to perish together with them?
"What … What should we do?" With a pale expression, Lu Cha looked at the demonic beast whose entire body was burning with black flames. Her face was filled with tears, and she tightly grabbed onto Xiao Yi at the side. "Senior-martial uncle Xiao, are we unable to leave? I don't want to die here. "
Xiao Yi did not reply, and even Wang Xuzhi and Chen Yi had turned silent. They were currently at the center of the spiritual energy riot. Putting aside the fact that the two of them were heavily injured, and basically did not have the spiritual energy to fly their swords away, even if they were completely unharmed, with such a huge spiritual energy riot, they would not have the strength to leave either.
