"Please punish us, Wolf Lord!" The five True Immortal werewolves knelt even lower. They seemed to be in fear and trepidation.
"Forget it. Although you're incompetent, you're still willing to risk your lives for me after so many years. Your loyalty is commendable. Go back and act according to your previous plan. Kill as many Immortals as possible. Summoning the Blood Moon to open the passage still requires more blood. As long as I can escape successfully, the next time the Immortal Devil Battlefield opens, I'll make the Immortal World pay for this with interest. "
The wolf head formed from mist said coldly, "That human True Immortal has some tricks up his sleeve. If you can't beat him, I'll give you another chance. If you ruin my plans, don't blame the clan for being merciless!"
"Yes, Wolf Lord!" When the five True Immortal werewolves heard this, they stood up and shot out of the Mist Palace.
"Human junior and that Ying Qing brat, how dare you ruin my plans with the Blood Spirit Devouring Lightning. Don't let me catch you." The wolf head formed from mist smiled sinisterly. After its subordinates left, it turned into mist and disappeared.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak …" The ice scorpion demons descended from the sky to the ground. They covered the sky and the earth as they charged at the immortal stronghold. There was no order to it, but the ice scorpion demons were fearless. The huge horde still brought great pressure to the many Immortals and cultivators in the immortal stronghold.
Several Immortals in the immortal stronghold wielded Purple Golden Mallets. They surrounded a huge drum engraved with the image of a lightning tiger.
At this moment, the ice scorpion demons had already created a huge gap in the immortal stronghold's restrictions. A large number of ice scorpion demons swarmed in. A dozen or so cultivators did not have time to retreat. They were swallowed by the ice scorpion demons. They struggled with all their might and killed the ice scorpion demons that pounced on them. However, their strength was limited. When they were bitten by a slightly weaker ice scorpion, their bodies would feel numb. Then, their bodies would become colder and colder. In the end, even the circulation of their Immortal Core Power started to stagnate. Then, they would lose their senses. Under the attack of the scorpion swarm, their bones would disappear without a trace.
The gap grew bigger and bigger under the attack of the scorpion swarm. The cultivators in the stronghold who had been fighting with the ice scorpions for several days couldn't help but feel fear when they saw this scene. They originally thought that once the restrictions of the stronghold were completed, they would be able to resist the attacks of the scorpions. Ever since they encountered the scorpions in the mine, they had been able to repel the attacks of the scorpions several times and killed countless. Even the leader of the Ice Scorpions had been killed. However, a new leader would soon appear. The demonic ice scorpion seemed to have been enraged by the battle.
Each wave of attacks was more ferocious than the last, and it seemed like there was no end to the horde. The immortals and cultivators on Leiyinxianzong's side couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness. It wasn't that they didn't fight well, nor did they have a strong will to resist. It was just that the number of Ice Scorpions was so great that it made them feel despair. As for Leiyinxianzong's side, other than replenishing their forces once or twice, they didn't have any more reinforcements. Compared to the increasing number of Ice Scorpions, there was a huge difference between the two.
"Get out of the way!" The immortals surrounding the Thunder Tiger Drum roared at the same time, their voices booming like thunder. In that short moment, even the sounds of fighting and the surging of the scorpions were suppressed.
The immortals and cultivators blocking the front of the scorpions hurriedly retreated. However, there were still one or two who didn't react fast enough, or who couldn't escape in time due to the battle with the Ice Scorpions.
At that moment, the three immortals surrounding the Thunder Tiger Drum couldn't care less. Immortal Core Power surged in their bodies, and they jointly struck the drum with their purple-gold hammers.
"Roar!" A large tiger with slanted eyes flickering with lightning roared out from the drum. The roar reverberated in the direction of the Ice Scorpions. Immediately, the Ice Scorpions at the front were killed on the spot.
Lightning could be seen flashing on the bodies of these Ice Scorpions. The Ice Scorpions that were struck by the lightning had their originally sparkling bodies charred black. Lightning of varying thickness danced on their bodies. Even if they didn't die on the spot, as long as they were struck by the lightning, they would feel numb and their speed greatly reduced.
"Roar, roar …"
The drumsticks fell one after another. The slanted eyes of the lightning tiger became more and more lifelike, as if it was real. The tiger's roar reverberated, and the sound waves could be seen in the void. The sound waves rippled outwards, and they were directed at the Ice Scorpions that were rushing in through the gap in the restriction. The cultivators who were closer, and even the immortals with weaker cultivation, couldn't withstand the roar of the Thunder Tiger. It was as if their heads were being stirred by the drumsticks. They couldn't feel any pain, but their minds were blank. Their entire being was in a daze.
The scorpions that broke through the restriction and rushed into the stronghold were shaken away by the tiger's roar. The Ice Scorpions at the back seemed to be afraid of the power of the lightning, and they screeched.
The leader of the Ice Scorpions that was hiding in the scorpions suddenly appeared, and it let out a strange cry. The scorpions that were already afraid went crazy again, and they attacked the stronghold one after another.
When immortals beat the drums, they would eventually consume their immortal essence. As time passed, although many Ice Scorpions were killed, the three immortals who beat the drums had consumed a lot of their immortal essence. The roar of the Thunder Tiger in the void gradually weakened. When the scorpions sensed it, they became even more agitated.
"Fellow Daoist Nameless, the situation is critical. It seems that you have to make a move." Zhao Xiuyuan anxiously looked at the lotus avatar that was sitting cross-legged in a corner of the stronghold with its eyes closed, and was not affected by external forces.
Several Ice Scorpion leaders were killed by the lotus avatar. In addition, the lotus avatar also killed more than ten Ice Scorpions that were at the immortal level. This allowed the crisis of the stronghold to be resolved several times. Not only Zhao Xiuyuan, but even though the lotus avatar wasn't Leiyinxianzong's subordinate, the other immortals and low-level cultivators couldn't help but place their hopes on this expressionless person. They didn't know where he came from, but his strength and shocking swordsmanship made people admire him.
"I already told you that there is more than one group of Ice Scorpions. Even if you kill one of their leaders, either a new leader will appear, or another group of Ice Scorpions will appear. You can't kill all of them, but because you are afraid of the punishment from the Sect, you lost the best opportunity to retreat, and ended up in such a predicament. There is nothing we can do. "Just as Zhao Xiuyuan was feeling awkward, the lotus avatar spoke up.
"This, the restriction has been broken, and the Ice Scorpions are endless. We can no longer defend this place. Fellow Daoist Nameless, where do you think we should retreat to?" Zhao Xiuyuan asked with a bitter expression. The other party wasn't Leiyinxianzong's subordinate, and they had killed so many immortal level Ice Scorpions. No matter how much blame was put on the lotus avatar, he couldn't blame it on the lotus avatar. However, he lost the mine, suffered heavy losses, and didn't bring back many immortal crystals. When he returned to Leiyinxianzong, he naturally couldn't escape punishment. As long as there was a chance, he would fight for it. However, who would have thought that the situation would be so bad? Even if he wanted to leave now, it might not be so easy.
