"What can these Ironwood Caltrops do to us? Do you think you can stop us? " When Magnolia Purpurea had awakened, Lian Yue's performance had caused Lu Xiaotian to be dissatisfied. Now that he was eager to show off, Lian Yue raised his sword and hacked at the Ironwood Caltrops.
Clang clang …
When the flying sword struck the caltrops, the sound of metal clashing against stone could be heard. Each sword strike was only able to send two or three Ironwood Caltrops flying.
Everyone's expression changed. One or two Ironwood Caltrops weren't very powerful, but from a distance, there was a dense swarm of black shadows attacking them.
Although Lian Yue's strength was the weakest among them, he was still a Nascent Soul cultivator. Yet, each sword strike was only able to send two or three Ironwood Caltrops flying. Even though they were a bit stronger, when they saw the dense swarm of black shadows, even Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb.
"Why are there so many damned Ironwood Caltrops? If we continue to stay here, we'll be exhausted. Brother Lu, what should we do?"
After Qiao Lan sent a few nearby Ironwood Caltrops flying with her colorful ribbon, she couldn't help but turn pale when she saw the dense swarm of Ironwood Caltrops.
There were too many Ironwood Caltrops in the air. When Lu Xiaotian probed with his spiritual sense, he could only sense a large number of threats approaching. In this situation, even if he had several strands of his Nascent Soul, it wouldn't be enough.
"Magnolia Purpurea!" In addition to his own Nascent Soul, Lu Xiaotian could also rely on the Magnolia Purpurea to probe.
"Got it, Master. Watch me."
Magnolia Purpurea softly called out and virtual roots extended underground. Lu Xiaotian's spiritual sense also spread out along these roots. However, this time, as the roots extended outwards, Lu Xiaotian felt that his spiritual sense seemed to have been strengthened to a certain extent.
Moreover, Lu Xiaotian felt that most of the trees around him had a natural affinity with his Primordial Spirit, except for those demon plants that already had a certain level of self-consciousness.
Through the extension of these trees, Lu Xiaotian soon saw that between the continuous trees, about thirty miles away, the main body was growing underground. It had a ferocious appearance, and its thickness was extremely irregular. The rhizome had already begun to form a vague face. He looked ferocious. Around his face, Ironwood Caltrops were rapidly growing and emerging from the ground. He flew rapidly towards Lu Xiaotian and his group.
There were dozens to hundreds of these strange wood demons. Their auras were extremely powerful, and their roots extended endlessly, occupying a radius of several hundred miles.
When Lu Xiaotian's group entered the wood-type passageway, the first thing they did was barge into the territory of these Wood Demons.
"Follow me. We can't fight these fellows head-on." The life force of these wood demons was extremely powerful. Lu Xiaotian didn't want to stay behind and fight them to the death.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, you found the location of this demon so quickly?" The Eight-legged Demonic Ox said in surprise. Among the Ironwood Caltrops that filled the sky, when they probed with their spiritual consciousness, they could only feel the threat surging towards them from all directions. Judging from Lu Xiaotian's tone, he had actually discovered the existence of the other party.
Even if the other party's spiritual consciousness was powerful, it might not be useful in such an environment. The direction Lu Xiaotian chose to break through happened to be in a position where there were relatively fewer Ironwood Caltrops. In other words, they had to face the difficulties head-on. It was no wonder that the Eight-legged Demonic Ox was a little suspicious.
"Now is not the time to talk nonsense. If you don't want to die, follow me. "Lu Xiaotian shouted.
Even an ordinary mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator, or even a Great Cultivator, might not be able to find the wood demons hidden underground. The consumption of spiritual consciousness to penetrate the ground was several times more than in the air.
If it weren't for cultivators like Lu Xiaotian who possessed special techniques, even a Great Cultivator would be in great danger if they were to run around aimlessly like a headless fly.
Of course, the density and purity of a Great Cultivator's magic power far exceeded that of an early Nascent Soul stage cultivator. After several clashes, they would most likely be able to find a relatively weak point to break through. Ordinary Nascent Soul stage cultivators would find it difficult to do so.
Clanging sounds rang out incessantly as everyone used their techniques to push aside the numerous Ironwood Caltrops that were hurtling towards them. They quickly rushed out for several dozen kilometers. When they saw even more Ironwood Caltrops rushing towards them from several directions, they felt a wave of lingering fear. Only then did they believe that Lu Xiaotian's judgement was correct.
"Brother Lu, you're still the best." After continuously repelling a large number of Ironwood Caltrops, even these people were quite tired. When Qiao Lan saw even more Ironwood Caltrops coming from several other directions, her forehead couldn't help but be covered in a layer of fragrant sweat. She looked at the malevolent wood demons that had emerged from the ground behind her with lingering fear.
"It's not time for us to escape yet."
Lu Xiaotian's expression didn't relax in the slightest. When everyone saw Lu Xiaotian's expression, their expressions suddenly became tense and they looked around with fear.
Before Lu Xiaotian's voice fell, the others also sensed the danger. Countless green vines frantically crept towards them from the lush grass. The sharp thorns on the green vines seemed as if they would pierce into their skin at any moment.
After all, they weren't mediocre cultivators. They weren't as stealthy as the wood demons that hid underground last time. Naturally, some of them discovered that something was amiss.
Just as everyone flew into the air, they could faintly see translucent dandelions in the distance, but they had abstract faces. It drifted towards the crowd in an endless stream. From afar, the sky was somewhat reddish, but it wasn't very obvious.
Closer to them, there were a few eagles and pigeons that were attached to the bodies of these dandelion demon beasts. The demon beasts' bodies emitted an exaggerated suction force, causing the bodies of these demon beasts to shrivel at a speed visible to the naked eye. Miserable screams rang out incessantly.
There were even 2 tenth-rank demon beasts whose surging demon power propped up 2 blue defensive spiritual shields. But the densely packed bloodsucking dandelions attached to them formed a reddish ball in the blink of an eye. The ball was getting bigger and bigger.
With a boom, the defensive spiritual shields collapsed and a large number of bloodsucking dandelions were blown to smithereens. But even more bloodsucking dandelions rushed over madly. The tenth-rank demon beasts inside didn't persist for long before they were sucked dry and turned into dried corpses.
The Eight-footed Magic Ox and the others turned deathly pale when they saw this. These bloodsucking dandelions looked almost endless. The 2 tenth-rank demon beasts were submerged in the blink of an eye. If it were the 5 of them, once trapped, they wouldn't be able to persist any longer than these 2 tenth-rank demon beasts.
"Brother Lu, these bloodsucking dandelions aren't afraid of ordinary spiritual fires, but powerful spiritual fires can greatly restrain them." Lian Yue shouted at Lu Xiaotian.
