At this moment, Huang Shaoyu recalled many things as if he had a terminal lucidity.
He first thought of the dried taro that was being dried in the stockade, then he thought of the fine wine that he had secretly hidden away, and then he thought of the little girl that he had held hands with when he was young.
They were not particularly beautiful but very simple memories. Things were often like this. Those things that you had overlooked, that you thought were very small, would inadvertently float up in your mind.
Of course, if he was not facing the threat of death at this moment, he would definitely run back to eat the dried taro, drink the fine wine, and then find the little girl and tell her that he wanted to be her man.
This moment actually felt so long. It was so long that he could only focus his thoughts on Yan Li when he reached this point.
Why does he want to kill me?
Is it because of the previous fight that he held a grudge in his heart?
Is it because I have fawned over Gu Caiwei?
Countless thoughts went through his mind. No one could imagine how fast he had to be to finish these thoughts before Yan Li's sword light.
After he finished thinking, he realized that he was dead for sure.
At this moment, he was in mid-air and had already used half of his move. He was not like Yan Li, who could change his move at any time without worrying about the backlash.
He felt that he was dead for sure, but the sword light brushed past his back. There was a muffled "chi la" followed by a crisp "bang".
The crisp sound was the sound of the dragon claw piercing through the luminous disk on the stone man's navel. The muffled sound was the sound of a bloody mouth full of sharp teeth tearing open on Huang Shaoyu's right side.
The stone man fell to the ground with a crash, and the bloody mouth also spat out a large amount of greenish-blue juice, spraying Huang Shaoyu's head and face.
The stone man did not change at all, but the bloody mouth suddenly intertwined with mysterious light, and finally turned into a few strands of stars as thin as hair, floating to the ground.
Before the corpse with the bloody mouth disappeared, Huang Shaoyu saw its roots growing underground. It should be the legendary man-eating grass.
He still could not believe it, and after a while, he choked out a sentence, "Damn you!"
Then he realized that no one was responding. Everyone seemed to be focusing all their attention on their surroundings.
Then, he realized that the rocks around him and under his feet were suddenly moving. It was hard to imagine the scene of rocks flying in the air. It turned out that these rocks were not ordinary rocks at all. No matter how slow he was, he finally remembered that these were Starfall Beasts, mountain monsters.
It wasn't just the mountain monster. Many of the cracks in the rocks opened their bloody mouths and hissed at the group.
"The alpine monster's weakness is its navel. Just destroy its core. Be careful of the cannibal vines. They have poisonous thorns that can paralyze people's nerves. "
Yan Li spoke quickly and anxiously, giving instructions.
At crucial moments, he could always stabilize the situation.
Lianhai Changjin originally didn't have much confidence, but now he realized that the other party had done a lot of homework in private. He couldn't help but feel ashamed. If he was that kind of hot-blooded youth, he wouldn't have been able to live to this day.
The difference in strength between a Starfall Beast and a Starfall Beast was huge. Before you knew its weakness, you would think that your opponent was a peerless master among the Starfall Beasts. However, once you knew its weakness, you could take advantage of the fact that it did not have a mind and kill it like chopping vegetables. Of course, this referred to a small number of cultivators like Yan Li.
Even if Yan Li wasn't included, which of the people present was an ordinary cultivator?
The weakest, Huang Shaoyu, could be considered to be from a family. His ancestors were also from a big family, and the Dragonization Art that was passed down in his family was also quite famous in the martial world. Otherwise, the Greenwood Bandits wouldn't have become the leader of the Three Great Bandits.
In any case, as long as it was related to a secret art, it would have a far-reaching influence. In the Jambu Realm, inheritance was everything. Immortality Arts were the foundation of everything. Otherwise, no matter how many cultivation resources you were given, without the Immortality Arts, it would just be a castle in the air. How many Yan Shiyi were there in the world?
Yan Li could kill the Man-Eating Grass with a single slash. The others naturally had their own ways, but even in a grass-cutting massacre, there would be strong resistance.
Just when everyone thought that there were no more accidents, suddenly, soil and stones flew. A huge Man-Eating Grass emerged from the ground, opened its bloody mouth, and spat out a huge amount of green juice into the sky. Then it scattered in all directions and fell freely, like a sudden rainstorm.
Even a fool knew that this juice should not be touched at all. Just by looking at the miserable state of the mountain monster closest to the Giant Man-Eating Grass after being "accidentally" injured, one could tell that except for the core disc, the rest of its body had been corroded. It seemed to be very toxic.
"Hide!" Gu Caiwei shouted, spreading his Law Domain to the limit.
At the same time, a huge shadow suddenly rose beside the Giant Man-Eating Grass. It was a giant mountain monster. Without waiting for anyone to react, it suddenly extended its arms, and its body suddenly rotated rapidly. Its two huge arms spun rapidly like windmills, stirring up tornadoes on the ground.
This monster's target was obviously Gu Caiwei, who had spread his Law Domain in an attempt to block the poisonous rain. Moreover, its method was effective, and the Law Domain was shattered.
Yan Li's pupils shrank as he shouted, "Autumn Rain!"
There was a strong meaning in his shout, and Yu Qiuyu did not know why, but he instantly understood what it meant.
"Return to one!"
He pressed on Thirteen Obelisks, closed his eyes slightly, and spat out two words.
Thirteen Obelisks was slowly unsheathed, bringing with it a series of sword shadows. The sword shadows closely followed, and with every inch forward, the next sword shadow would fuse with the previous one. This repeated countless times, and when the last sword shadow fused with the body of the sword, the simple and unadorned Thirteen Obelisks suddenly shone brightly.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Qiuyu's figure also dashed forward, almost crossing the shackles of the void. In the next moment, he broke through the tornadoes, and Thirteen Obelisks accurately pierced into the stomach of the rectangular mountain monster. With a twist, the huge body of the mountain monster began to interweave with mysterious light.
At the same time, Yan Li suddenly swung his sword, and countless sword lights appeared in the void. His face instantly turned pale.
Boom boom boom —
An uncountable number of sword lights exploded above everyone's heads, coincidentally blocking the poisonous rain outside.
Gu Caiwei frowned. She knew that Yan Li had no choice but to use her inner Qi to replace Star Source power to make up for her mistake, because the surrounding Star Source power had been drawn away by her Law Domain.
Her gaze suddenly turned fierce, and she withdrew her Law Domain. Her clothes turned crimson, and the Star Meteor Beasts within several miles of the sea of Hurricane Lilies instantly exploded into powder.
...
"Is everyone alright?" Yan Li sat down weakly.
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Huang Shaoyu grinned. "I'm fine!"
"It stinks. Hurry up and wash up!" Gu Caiwei covered her nose in displeasure.
"Alright!" Huang Shaoyu immediately went to wash up.
Yu Qiuyu followed Lian Hai Changjin to collect the spoils of war. It didn't take long for them to gather everything.
"I can't believe there's such a thing." Lian Hai Changjin picked up an ice-blue gem with a strange expression.
The ice-blue gem was as bright as mercury. It was mysterious and deep.
"Moon Demon Stone." Gu Caiwei recognized it at a glance.
"Let's split it when we get back. Put it away first," said Yan Li.
Lian Hai Changjin didn't argue and immediately put away the remaining star threads and three Spirit Stones.
After Yan Li had recovered from his meditation, the five of them continued their journey into the deep valley. Following that, they encountered a few more waves of attacks. With the previous encounter, they found that giant mountain monsters and man-eating grasses would appear every once in a while. These should be the culprits that caused the Hunting Group to suffer heavy casualties and caused the Hurricane Canyon to be deserted.
However, they didn't find any more treasures with star threads or above. They didn't expect their luck to take a turn for the worse after opening the door. Although there was no risk, it was still very frustrating.
In the middle of the canyon, there were finally no more mountain monsters and man-eating grasses. There was another monster called the Flying Angel. It was similar to the will-o '-the-wisp. It was in the shape of a mini sandstorm. It was extremely hostile to humans and lived in groups. Once encountered, it would be a battle to the death.
To deal with the Flying Angel, one had to inject True Qi into its body quickly and cause it to self-destruct. Otherwise, no matter how many grains of sand were destroyed, as long as one was left, it would return to normal with a shake of its body.
Of course, there was no shortage of sand in the canyon, especially on the dry riverbank. So it was unusually difficult to deal with.
Moreover, other than sand, the Flying Angel had no form or substance. It didn't have any treasures on it. Unlike the mountain monsters, there was a particularly hard part of their body that could be used to forge armor and sell for a few coins.
After the middle section, the five of them had a tacit understanding of each other. At least, there wouldn't be a situation where one of them drew too much Astral Power and caused the other to run out of True Qi.
At the end of the canyon was a valley.
The five of them stopped outside the valley. Yan Li raised his head to look at the sky. It was already sunset and the sky was about to turn dark. He thought for a moment and said, "Let's find a place to rest. We'll enter the valley when the sun rises tomorrow morning."
No one had any objections. Just as they were about to find a clean place to hide, a bone-chilling hurricane suddenly blew out of the valley.
In the midst of this hurricane was a deep sigh. It was like a spirit that refused to rest in peace and was looking for someone to appeal to.
Of course, if you foolishly approached it, it probably wouldn't have anything to complain to you. It would only eat you up until not even your bones were left.
Everyone felt uncomfortable all over. Imagine hearing such a sigh in their ears while they were sleeping soundly at night. Even if they weren't scared to death, it was enough to make their hair stand on end.
"I don't think this place is suitable to spend the night." Lian Hai Changjin was the first to speak.
"Seconded!" Huang Shaoyu shouted. "Yan Li, what kind of idea is this? What if we disturb Mister's rest? Can you bear the responsibility!"
