"Overcautious, what a coward. If we don't go for the Purple Ginseng now, what if people from other sects rush over to snatch it? Things might change if we delay," the chubby girl said in disbelief.
"If that's the case, go ahead and get the Purple Ginseng. I won't accompany you." Lu Xiaotian turned around and left coldly. Previously, when he saw the corpses in the grotto, he felt that something was wrong. After seeing the Purple Ginseng here, this feeling became even stronger.
"You, Wu Shijie, this surnamed Lu is disobedient." When the chubby girl saw Lu Xiaotian leave, she was at her wit's end and could only look at Oh Yeon.
"Hey, Junior Brother Lu, you're really leaving." Zhu Yuchun quickly tried to pull Lu Xiaotian back.
However, Lu Xiaotian had already used the Imperial Wind Technique and leaped back into the grotto's passageway. As soon as he came out of the grotto, he saw more than ten figures rapidly approaching. Lu Xiaotian's heart trembled. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and left. There must be demonic beasts near the Purple Ginseng. Otherwise, it would have been taken away. There were demonic beasts in front and other cultivators blocking the grotto from behind. Oh Yeon and the others would have a hard time in the future. These ten figures came so quickly. The deaths of the Primary Star Palace disciples in the grotto were probably caused by these people.
Without waiting for these people to come close, Lu Xiaotian directly disappeared into the forest near the grotto.
"This Lu Xiaotian really doesn't know what's good for him. If we didn't save him, he would have been eaten by that group of white-haired spiders. Now that he's so cowardly, there's one less person to share the Purple Ginseng with." "Senior Sister Wu, there's no time to lose. Let's immediately gather those ten plus stalks of Purple Ginseng Luo and leave this place."
"Junior Brother Xue, Zhu Yuchun, and Jouans, the three of you will take the lead. The archer squad will be on guard and be ready to provide support at any time. Be careful of any demonic beasts coming out of the cold pond. The rest of you, follow me to the rear! " After a moment of hesitation, Oh Yeon also made arrangements. Although she also felt that there was something fishy about the Violet Gauze Ginseng not being taken away, the strength of the team was not weak. In addition, most of the other members of the team were eager to give it a try. Oh Yeon decided to give it a try first. As long as they were prepared, even if they encountered a Demonic Beast, they could retreat into the grotto and protect themselves.
"Let's go." Zhu Yuchun and Jouans looked at each other. In the eyes of the two of them, although Oh Yeon's strength was tyrannical, her experience in handling matters was quite lacking. However, they were lucky enough to encounter Oh Yeon's team after their teams were defeated and suffered heavy casualties. They did not have the courage to leave like Lu Xiaotian. Since they could not leave, they could only follow orders.
Zhu Yuchun and Jouans coincidentally distanced themselves from the cold pond that was shrouded in mist. However, Xue Qingshu was very arrogant as he approached the cold pond. He looked at Zhu Yuchun and Jouans with disdain.
Zhu Yuchun's mouth twitched as his gaze swept elsewhere. Xue Qingshu was very pleased with himself. However, before the complacency on his face disappeared. With a splash, there seemed to be the sound of water breaking out of the cold pond. Immediately after, the sound of water splashing could be heard.
Dozens of balls of black liquid that emitted a fishy smell shot towards them from the mist.
The few of them who were already on guard against the cold pond immediately put up their defensive spiritual shields.
Large amounts of black liquid hit the defensive spiritual shields and sizzled, giving off a fishy smell of white smoke. The light on the spiritual shields trembled.
"Oh no, the poison can corrode the spiritual shields!" The expressions of Jouans and the others changed drastically. They hurriedly retreated. Before they could react, hundreds of black flying snakes that were several feet long and had a pair of wings charged out of the white mist above the cold pond. Their croaking sounds were extremely unpleasant to the ears. Other than the majority of them being Rank Two demon snakes, there were also dozens of Rank Three demon snakes whose strength was at the peak of Rank Three. They were many times stronger than cultivators like them.
Hundreds of wind blades swept towards the few people closest to them like a whirlwind. Xue Qingshu did not have time to react. His spiritual shield was suddenly destroyed after taking on the dozens of wind blades. Then, it was cut into pieces by the surging wind blades.
Zhu Yuchun and Jouans were shocked. Because they were slightly further away, they escaped quickly. Even so, their spiritual shields were cut into pieces by the wind blades. Several wounds were added to their bodies.
"Black-scaled Winged Wind Snake!"
Whoosh whoosh …
The female archer squad continuously shot out sharp arrows. Their incomparably accurate bows and arrows killed more than a dozen Black-Scaled Winged Wind Serpents in a row. However, the tragic deaths of their own kind instead angered the group of serpents even more. One after another, more and more black serpents rushed out of the cold pond. They were densely packed, and there were already several hundred of them.
"Wu Shijie, there are too many Wind Snakes. Our arrows are simply not enough." Zhu Ling's expression changed greatly. She ordered them to stop shooting. Otherwise, before the snake horde was repelled, they would have to use up all their arrows. Then, they would lose their biggest advantage against the other cultivator teams.
"Retreat into the cave!" Oh Yeon was also at a loss at this time. She hurriedly ordered.
However, the enraged snake horde did not plan to let go of this group of people who killed their companions. A large number of black snakes also followed into the cave. They either shot out wind blades or spat out black corrosive poison. The spiritual shields of the few cultivators who fell behind looked like they would not be able to hold on.
Oh Yeon's expression turned cold. She took out a scarlet chakram and twirled it around her hand. The chakram turned into seven. With a shake of her hands, she pushed them forward. The seven scarlet chakrams buzzed and spun towards the flying snakes.
Bang bang … The dozens of flying snakes that were hit were all cut in half. The momentum of the pursuing snake horde was stopped. However, the snake horde became even more manic and continued to charge forward.
"Wu Shijie, let's go!" Zhu Ling pulled the pale-faced Oh Yeon, who withdrew her chakram. Although the chakram magic tool Oh Yeon just shot out was powerful, it consumed too much magic power. In such a short time, even a mid-grade spirit stone was not enough to replenish it.
"Quick, leave the cave!" The cultivators behind shouted in panic.
Most of the passages in the cave were narrow. However, after walking for a while, there would be a place that would suddenly become much wider.
At this moment, the cultivator who was running at the front was passing through a slightly wider area. He screamed as several flying knives and flying swords came directly at him. This male cultivator didn't even have the chance to resist. He was ambushed by several enemies at the same time and was chopped into several pieces.
"There's an ambush!" Jouans and the others were shocked. On the other side, a large number of black-scaled winged wind snakes were chasing after them. Their path of retreat was blocked by other cultivators. It could be said that there was no way to advance or retreat. The ambushing enemies were guarding an open area. Several people could attack at the same time. However, the passage they were passing through was narrow. At most, only two people could rush out at the same time. It was impossible for them to use their full strength. Once they were surrounded by the enemy, it would be disastrous. However, the manic snake horde behind them had already attacked. In the cave, the sound of the snake horde flapping their wings could be heard.
