Vertical Brush Peak lived up to its name. It was like an upright brush, straight towards the sky and extremely steep.
There was only a simple mountain path up the mountain. Everyone stood at the foot of the mountain. They could imagine how difficult it was for the practitioners of Three Mountain City to open up this path.
Especially when the mountain was filled with vicious beasts.
They had to bleed every step and lose their souls step by step.
The flesh and blood of the dead formed the steps, and the souls of the dead protected the living. The living worked hard and finally stepped onto the mountain, exterminating all the vicious beasts.
After two years, there were new ferocious beasts roaming around the area, and new cleaners had appeared as well.
Jiang Wang was no stranger to vicious beasts, but it was his first time coming to the legendary nest of vicious beasts.
Because of the generous rewards, many practitioners came to Three Mountain City, but most of them chose to follow the main group of Three Mountain City to exterminate Alioth Peak.
Only a few groups chose to go to Vertical Brush Peak.
Li Jianqiu set off early in the morning, so there were no other companions.
Under Li Jianqiu's lead, the group climbed up the mountain. The first half of the path was smooth. Other than the occasional beast bones, there was nothing else.
The mountain path spiraled up the mountain. On one side was a cliff, and on the other was a cliff. Occasionally, there would be strange howls echoing in the valley, causing goosebumps to rise.
"Careful!" Li Jianqiu suddenly warned, but did not take action.
A snake-like vicious beast suddenly darted out from the cliff. Although it was a snake, it was covered in scales the same color as the rocks. This layer of protection made it difficult to detect when it was still.
Jiang Wang was the first to unsheathe his sword. The first killing technique of the East-rising Purple Qi Sword Mantra was precisely when the vicious beast opened its mouth, cutting off its tongue.
His other hand that was forming seals was not idle either. He flipped his hand and stuffed a fireball into the snake's mouth. His body turned with his sword, and at the same time that the vicious beast fell off the cliff, he floated back up the mountain path.
This series of actions was clean and efficient, without any excess. It was a pleasing sight to the eyes.
After integrating Dao techniques into his combat system, Jiang Wang's battle prowess had multiplied.
"This kind of Vicious Beast is called the Rock Snake. Its scales have an extremely strong defense, and its mouth is its weakness." While walking forward, Li Jianqiu explained, "Junior Brother Jiang handled it beautifully. If the ferocious beasts on Xubi Peak are only this strong and dense, it seems that we can reach the peak today."
"Senior Brother Li seems to be very familiar with this place?" Zhao Rucheng asked.
"Yes." Li Jianqiu's reply came from the front.
He had deliberately not made a move just now because he wanted to observe the quality of these people. He was satisfied with the results.
Zhao Rucheng reacted quickly and quickly adjusted his position. If Li Jianqiu was not mistaken, the way he held the sword was exactly the same as Jiang Wang's. It seemed that both of them had learned the extraordinary swordsmanship method that had been widely spread. Jiang Wang had won the first place among the first-year students in the Three Cities Dao Discussion, so it was hard for him not to be noticed.
Huang Azhan was usually joking around, but he was able to complete his dao technique preparation in a very short time.
Of course, Jiang Wang surprised Li Jianqiu the most. He had long known that Jiang Wang would have a qualitative improvement after laying the foundation, but he did not expect the improvement to be so great. Jiang Wang's current strength was far superior to when he was at the Three Cities Dao Discussion.
Such a team might not be very powerful, but at least no one would be a burden to him.
As they walked forward, they turned a corner. As soon as Li Jianqiu's figure disappeared from sight, intense Dao Essence fluctuations came from that direction.
Jiang Wang hurriedly turned around and saw the corpse of a centipede-like Vicious Beast. It had been cut into several pieces and was scattered on the ground. Two flaming swords were burning in Li Jianqiu's hands.
"Wind Hounds can fly," Li Jianqiu explained. Then, he said indifferently, "If there are too many of them, it will be difficult to deal with them."
If they were surrounded by flying Vicious Beasts on this narrow mountain path, it would indeed be difficult to deal with them. Fortunately, only one Wind Hound had appeared so far.
The continuous appearance of Vicious Beasts meant that they had entered the area where Vicious Beasts roamed. Everyone was on high alert.
Huang Azhan, on the other hand, carefully stacked a bunch of Dao techniques on himself, such as the Stone Skin Technique and the Solid Body Technique. Not only did he add them to himself, but he also added them to Jiang Wang and Zhao Rucheng.
In the end, Li Jianqiu looked at him helplessly. "Do you have enough Dao Essence?"
Only then did he stop resentfully.
Halfway up the mountain.
The woman's waist was graceful, and the man's waist was majestic. The mountainside of Xubi Peak … was dangerous.
The mountain path stopped here. There was no road ahead. There were only rugged rocks and strange trees.
There were no less than 20 Vicious Beasts crouching or lying between the trees and rocks. There were wolf-shaped, snake-shaped, bird-shaped, and so on. However, they all looked terrifying and ferocious.
Vicious Beasts did not have intelligence, so this was not an ambush. To be precise, it was Jiang Wang and the others who had barged into their resting place.
Of course, they exploded at the first moment.
The four balls of fresh meat that were close to them made them go crazy with desire.
Li Jianqiu held the Dual Flame Swords and crashed into the Vicious Beasts. The flame swords flew, and the flesh was badly mangled.
Zhao Rucheng wielded his sword and cut to the side. He did not charge forward recklessly like Li Jianqiu. Instead, he kept the number of Vicious Beasts he faced at least three at the same time. His sword moved swiftly from left to right, cutting through vital points every time.
Huang Azhan's hand seals were as fast as flying. Jiang Wang had already discovered that he was extremely fast when he was in the state of mind. At this time, the flame bullets were like a string of pearls, almost whistling as they surged forward.
He had used a high-grade Fourth Grade single-target Dao Technique to create an area of effect Dao Technique.
Jiang Wang naturally did not want to fall behind. He pulled his left hand, which had completed the hand seals, and a vine wrapped around the wolf-shaped Vicious Beast in front of him. Then, his long sword slashed, and the wolf's head separated from its body.
He kicked the wolf's corpse and sent it flying, crashing into another tiger-shaped Vicious Beast.
He had already borrowed the force to fly backward. His entire body fell backward in the air, forming a straight line parallel to the ground.
He was like a long sword, and his own sword was the tip of the sword.
The strength of the East-rising Purple Qi sword art shook ordinary iron, causing the sword to cut through the snake-shaped Vicious Beast like a sharp blade cutting through paper.
The snake's corpse was split in two. Jiang Wang and his sword passed through the splattering blood. It was a close call, and not a single drop of snake blood came into contact with his sword.
An eagle-shaped Vicious Beast pounced forward, crashing into the splattering snake blood in the air. It let out a shrill cry as it was corroded.
Jiang Wang turned around. His long sword shot out from his hand and pierced through the eagle's slender neck, decapitating it in one strike.
This ordinary long sword could no longer withstand a battle of this level, and it exploded in midair.
Jiang Wang had been prepared for this. He formed a hand seal for a long time, and with a shake of his hand, a flame sword had already formed.
Only then did the snake blood fall to the ground, corroding the mountain rocks and leaving dents in them.
Jiang Wang held the flame sword at an angle and charged forward, once again crashing into the tiger-shaped Vicious Beast that had been knocked aside.
The flame sword pierced through the heart. Jiang Wang grabbed the tiger-shaped Vicious Beast's neck with his left hand and threw it to the side.
This series of battles was ingenious and smooth. If not for the Essence Control Art that allowed him to control his Dao Energy as he wished, he would not have been able to do this.
At this moment, Li Jianqiu had already killed two rounds in the Vicious Beast horde. Of the nearly twenty Vicious Beasts, only two were left alive. Two Wind Hou.
They seemed to know no fear, and of course, they had no concept of running away. They continued to charge forward, one to the left and one to the right.
Li Jianqiu rose from the ground. The two flame swords intersected in the air, and the two Wind Hou were cut into four pieces and fell to the ground with him.
Zhao Rucheng had already sheathed his sword. It seemed that he was not under any pressure.
Huang Azhan …
"Senior Brother Li is mighty!"
Since he could still actively flatter him, he should be in good condition.
Jiang Wang casually extinguished the flame sword. He did not have as much Dao Energy as Li Jianqiu, so he would save as much as he could.
Currently, his Starry River Vortex produced nine Dao Energy beads every day. Coupled with his own cultivation, he accumulated Dao Energy very quickly. However, in this kind of intense battle, he could not last for too long.
Li Jianqiu stepped over the corpses of the Vicious Beasts and walked forward.
Without the Vicious Beasts covering him, Jiang Wang finally noticed a huge rock in front of him. There was something carved on the rock.
