"Hmph, what's so great about it?"
The liveliness of the Makshin Valley reflected the desolation of the other valleys. A disciple of the Literary Valley glanced at Fang Xing with some disdain. When he saw the other disciples glancing over at him from time to time, as if they were somewhat envious, he sneered, "Let's go hunt a few Demonic Beasts and come back to roast them. After all, we've been fighting for so long, there's nothing wrong with relaxing!"
When the other disciples heard this, they immediately jumped up in excitement. Two or three of them volunteered to go into the forest to catch a few Demonic Beasts. The others also gathered firewood and started a fire. They all seemed to be a little livelier.
"Little Senior Fang, I really can't take it anymore. How about I ask you for a piece of meat to eat?"
Someone walked over with a smile. When he looked up, it was Qin Xing 'er and a dark-faced man.
This man also looked familiar. Fang Xing quickly recalled that he was also there when he fought against Meng Xuanzhao in the Purple Bamboo Forest.
In the Blue Cloud Sect, a person's status was linked to their strength. When they first met, Qin Xing called Fang Xing junior brother. Later, when she saw Fang Xing defeat Mu Yong-young in the Makshin Valley, she naturally called Fang Xing senior brother.
However, Fang Xing was really too young. Like the others, she added the word 'little' in front of senior brother.
"Haha, there's a share for those who come. This tiger penis has just been roasted, do you want to eat it?"
Fang Xing laughed and straightforwardly invited them to sit down. He then handed over the black strip on the tree branch.
Qin Xing 'er's face immediately darkened. She said stiffly, "I'm not eating it. Give me a piece of the bear paw!"
"You have no taste!"
Fang Xing muttered. He had no choice but to give her his bear paw. Only then did Qin Xing 'er accept it with a smile. She pulled the dark-faced man to sit down with her. After they sat down, the atmosphere became even better. The dark-faced man introduced himself. His name was Liu Heihu, and he was also a wine lover. He asked Fang Xing for the spirit wine in his gourd, but Fang Xing refused to give it to him. So, he took out a jar of wine and shared it with everyone.
"Little Senior Brother Fang, we haven't seen each other since we parted ways in the Purple Bamboo Forest. Come, let me toast you!"
Liu Heihu was very polite as he toasted Fang Xing. Like Qin Xing 'er, he felt that it was better to be friends with Fang Xing than to be his opponent.
Fang Xing laughed heartily. He raised his gourd and clinked it with him. Both of them took a big gulp.
Bandits were fond of eating meat and drinking wine. Liu Heihu and Qin Xing 'er were to his liking.
As they drank and chatted, the task of roasting meat was left to Wu Xiangtong. Fires were also lit in the other valleys. Three to five people gathered together and imitated Fang Xing's way of roasting meat. The lakeside immediately became much livelier. However, there were also many people who did not join in because of their status. After consuming the Hundred Herb Pill, they closed their eyes to rest and recover their spiritual qi.
Just as they were fervently eating, Fang Xing suddenly froze. His brows furrowed, and his little nose twitched.
Qin Xing 'er was talking to him. When she saw this, she felt that something was wrong. She asked, "What happened?"
Fang Xing frowned. "There's the smell of blood!"
Liu Heihu laughed. "So many people are slaughtering demonic beasts and cleaning their organs. Wouldn't there be a smell of blood?"
It turned out that many people had caught demonic beasts and were slaughtering them by the lakeside. It was already a mess.
Fang Xing glanced in that direction and shook his head. Then, he fixed his gaze on the mountain forest. He took a deep breath and activated the Dharma Eye Technique. Spiritual qi gathered in his eyes, and his vision immediately improved greatly. He looked straight into the mountain forest. Then, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly jumped up and shouted, "Be careful, there's trouble …"
As he shouted, he pushed his palm forward. Immediately, a light blue barrier thirty feet tall appeared, covering the Makshin Valley disciples, Qin Xing 'er, and Liu Heihu.
The other Blue Cloud Sect disciples were slightly stunned. They did not understand what was going on.
Some even looked around. Seeing that there was nothing out of the ordinary, they laughed softly and said, "What's wrong with this kid?"
"Oh no, there's danger!"
Suddenly, the expression of Xu Lingyun, who had been resting with her eyes closed, also changed. A flying sword instantly flew out of the Grotto-Heaven Ring on her left index finger. It turned into a sword light and surrounded the Vermilion Cloud Valley disciples.
At the same time, countless black dots suddenly shot out from the deep and dark mountain forest toward this place.
"Pa pa pa pa …"
For a moment, it was like a majestic rain, covering the sky and earth.
"Oh no, it's a monster. Everyone, be careful …"
Some of the disciples who reacted quickly shouted and used their techniques to block the strange insects.
The ones who reacted the fastest were, as expected, the leaders of the various valleys. When Pi Junzi of the Literature Valley saw Xu Lingyun summoning her flying sword, he let out a loud shout. From his waist pouch, several yellow talismans flew out, instantly covering the surroundings. Then, each of the yellow talismans flew out with spiritual light, combining together, transforming into the shape of an invisible prison, protecting the disciples of the Literature Valley beside him within.
Meanwhile, Feng Qingwei of the Mountain Valley Sect also shouted, "Disciples of the Mountain Valley Sect, listen up, activate the formation …"
Everyone's reactions could not be said to be slow, but there were still seven or eight people who were hit by the black dots. When the black dots landed on their bodies, they immediately stretched out their bodies. They were actually insects the size of a finger. Once they landed on their bodies, they immediately opened their sharp mouths and tore through their skin and flesh. These seven or eight disciples did not even have the chance to put up a barrier before the insects burrowed into their bodies.
After that, they went berserk. Living things burrowed in and out of their bodies, forming a bump on their bodies. Not long after, they were completely dead.
The only ones who completely protected the disciples around them were Fang Xing and Xu Lingyun. Fang Xing's barrier was put up early enough, so all the insects were blocked. Meanwhile, Xu Lingyun's sword was unstoppable. A flying sword danced nimbly like a brush and actually cut down all the insects that were charging at her and the Vermilion Cloud Valley disciples. A thick layer of strange insects with half their bodies were spread out ten zhang around them.
"Demonic beasts are attacking. Get ready …"
The Blue Cloud Sect disciples were not to be trifled with. They reacted very quickly and immediately used their artifacts to protect themselves.
Although the rain of insects was strange, they were not high-level demonic beasts. After everyone was prepared, they were no longer of any use.
"Why are there demonic beasts attacking?"
"Damn it, that brat must have lured the demonic beasts over when he was roasting meat by the lake …"
While they were preparing, someone shouted in panic and immediately blamed Fang Xing, who was the first to roast meat.
"Thank you, Little Senior Brother Fang!"
Qin Xing 'er and Liu Heihu also took out their artifacts to protect themselves. Both of them still had lingering fear on their faces. They were the closest to the opposite forest. If not for Fang Xing putting up a barrier to save their lives, it would be hard to say what would have happened to the two of them.
"It's still a little early to thank me. There's still more to come …"
Fang Xing sneered. Before he finished speaking, an earth-shattering roar suddenly rang out from the surrounding forest.
The huge sound wave was formed by the roars of countless demonic beasts. It was like a tidal wave, surging towards the crowd. It was as if there were countless demonic beasts surrounding the crowd. Those who were timid had already been frightened by the roars of the beasts. They were trembling in fear, but before they could do anything, they could only hear countless chaotic sounds. From within the forest, a wave of demonic beasts rushed out.
"Not good, we've been surrounded by demonic beasts …"
"Damn it, why are there so many demonic beasts? Since when did they team up to attack us? "
The disciples all moved closer to the center and squeezed into a group. They were naturally not afraid of encountering a single demonic beast, but it was extremely terrifying to encounter so many at once. Who would know that there were hundreds of demonic beasts in the surroundings?
"Mountain River Valley disciples, change the defensive formation to the Nine Yang Spirit Convergence Formation …"
The leader of the Mountain River Valley disciples, Feng Qingwei, shouted and immediately made the most correct decision.
With so many demonic beasts, the defensive formation would not be able to defend against them. They could only fight. After changing the formation to the Nine Yang Spirit Convergence Formation, the surrounding spiritual energy would be much denser. The Blue Cloud Sect disciples would be able to quickly recover their spiritual energy, which would benefit them in a protracted battle.
"Literary Valley disciples, quickly use the Vajra Talismans to strengthen our senior brothers!"
As the Literary Valley disciples used the Vajra Talismans, a faint Vajra light appeared on the bodies of the Blue Cloud Sect disciples. In an instant, everyone's barrier technique was strengthened by 30%. Even their strength was strengthened.
"Vermilion Cloud Valley disciples, use the Yi Wood Growth Technique to destroy the Natal Small Reversion Pill to heal the injuries of our fellow disciples!"
Xu Lingyun's voice also sounded. The Vermilion Cloud Valley disciples immediately used a round black pill of various sizes. They were as bright as black pearls. Wave-like vitality spread out from the surface of the pearls, but it was almost tangible growth spiritual energy. If anyone was injured, they would quickly recover within the range of this spiritual energy.
The four valleys of the Blue Cloud Sect each had their own strengths. They could help each other, and their strength would increase greatly when fighting against enemies.
Seeing that the other disciples were shouting, Fang Xing felt that he should shout something too. He casually shouted, "Listen up, bastards from the Makshin Valley. Try to hide behind others. You only have one life, so be careful not to lose it …"
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …"
Even though the battle was imminent, everyone's gazes turned to Fang Xing in unison, full of disdain.
Even the Makshin Valley disciples facepalmed. They felt that their own disciple leader was too embarrassing.
