There were obviously two less people behind Ying Wu Ji, so they should have already been killed.
Lu Ye was also caught off guard by this sudden situation. He never thought that such a treasure trove would be so dangerous.
Looking at the pursuers behind Ying Wu Ji and the others, Lu Ye raised his eyebrows and revealed a look of surprise.
Fire Spirit Race?
He had once seen records of this race in a book in his Honoured Master's Library Pavilion.
In the Nine Provinces, the main living beings were the Human Race and the Monster Race, but in addition to these two major races, there were also some other small races, such as the Five Elements Spirit Race.
The Five Elements Spirit Race was blessed by the heavens and was naturally proficient in many mysterious Secret Techniques. Many of the Spirit Inscriptions mastered by the Human Race today were created by generations of Sages studying the Secret Techniques of the Five Elements Spirit Race.
This was also the reason why the Five Elements Spirit Race was recorded in his Honoured Master's Library Pavilion.
However, the Five Elements Spirit Race was extremely rare and ordinary cultivators might not even see one in their lifetime.
But at this moment, there were more than a hundred Fire Spirits behind Ying Wu Ji and the others.
The environment here was special, so it was normal for it to give birth to such a strange existence like the Fire Spirit Race, but the number was a bit strange.
So, the Octupole Demon Sealing Formation in this city was sealing the Fire Spirit Race?
If this was the case, then there might be more Fire Spirits here than what he saw.
As this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Ye shuddered and instinctively raised his hand to touch his waist, but he touched nothing.
Seeing Ying Wu Ji and the others rushing towards him, he could only raise his hand and cast a spell behind him, slightly delaying the pursuit of the Fire Spirit Race.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides had converged.
"Let's go!" Ying Wu Ji immediately turned and headed towards the entrance.
Everyone followed closely behind.
However, a scene that made them despair appeared. As the Octupole Demon Sealing Formation in the city lost its effect, the magma in the trenches surged and many Fire Spirit Race figures appeared.
Among the Five Elements Spirit Race, the Fire Spirit Race was one of the most hot-tempered ones. Coupled with the fact that they had been sealed for so many years, they had long lost their rationality. Sensing the auras of Lu Ye and the others, they swarmed over from all directions, instantly surrounding them.
Lu Ye and Ying Wu Ji opened the way. Lu Ye's hands flashed with spells while Wu Ji's two curved blades flew through the air...
"Ah! A shrill cry suddenly sounded out from behind. Someone had been killed, and he was swarmed by the Fire Spirits in the surroundings, causing him to be instantly transformed into a rain of blood.
The other people's expressions were filled with grief, indignation, and fear, but they were powerless to help.
Lu Ye and Ying Wuji didn't even look back as they continued to charge forward. However, more and more Fire Spirits came from the front. They seemed to understand their plan and had already blocked off their path.
There were obstructions in front and pursuers behind. Under such circumstances, it was practically a hopeless situation.
"Get down! Ying Wu Ji made a prompt decision. With an angry roar, he took the lead to descend.
Crow was in mid-air, and there were Han Quan everywhere. If he landed on the ground, at least he wouldn't have to worry about being attacked from below.
After a few breaths of time, all of them finally descended into the dilapidated city, and a large number of Fire Spirits surged over from all directions like a surging tide.
More and more Fire Spirits came from Zhangyi and joined the encirclement.
Cries of cultivators rang out continuously. The Cloud River Tier cultivators who had descended from the sky couldn't withstand such an attack at all, and were all killed or injured in a short while.
Ying Wuji's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He had never thought that the original opportunity would turn into such a great danger in such a short time. The situation was really unpredictable.
What made him feel slightly reassured was that Niu Meng's performance was extremely eye-catching, and his strength was outstanding. In any case, he could cooperate with him.
If it were any other time, he would definitely be able to detect the abnormality, because with the strength that "Niu Meng" displayed now, he definitely couldn't be a nameless person. His mastery of sorcery was not the slightest bit inferior to Lu Qing of the Ten Thousand Laws Pavilion, and even surpassed him.
Lu Qing had obtained fourth place in the Cloud River Contest, so Niu Meng could not be worse than him no matter what. But in reality, Niu Meng did not have a seat in the Cloud River Contest at all.
But now, the situation was critical, and they could be drowned by the tide of Fire Spirits at any time. How could Ying Wuji think too much?
As he resisted, he called out loudly, "Brother Niu, hold on, I have already sent a message inside, and we will have reinforcements soon."
Lu Ye did not make a sound, and just used sorcery to repel the enemy. These Fire Spirits were actually not very strong. Compared to the state of human cultivators, most of them were at the Spirit Stream and Cloud River Stage, and there were very few True Lake Stage cultivators.
But Lu Ye could clearly feel that in the crisscrossing ravines, there was an even more powerful chi slowly recovering.
It was not that the Fire Spirit Race did not have any powerhouses, but the Octagonal Demon Sealing Formation had not completely lost its effect, and those powerhouses were still in a sealed state.
But as time passed, these Fire Spirit Race powerhouses would eventually break out of the seal.
So they had to kill their way out as soon as possible. It was not safe to wait for reinforcements from the Lone Mountain Pass.
What made Lu Ye especially uncomfortable was that these Fire Spirits seemed to have a natural resistance to fire-type sorcery, so it was a bit troublesome for him to kill them.
Thirty seconds later, Ying Wuji grunted. He was attacked by a True Lake Stage Fire Spirit Race cultivator at close range. The Fire Spirit Race was naturally proficient in many fire-type secret arts, and every one of them was a powerful fire-type sorcerer. But it did not mean that they only knew how to cast sorcery. Some Fire Spirits were born tall and strong, and it was obvious that they were the type that specialized in close combat.
Although the two were relying on each other now, it was still hard for two fists to fight against four hands.
When he staggered back, the door was wide open, and many fire-type sorcery came at him. The aura of death enveloped him, and Ying Wuji showed a look of despair.
He had just ascended to the True Lake Stage not long ago, and the brilliance of his life had just begun. He did not expect it to end here.
Early on in his cultivation, the elders of the Sen Luo Hall had taught him that the path of cultivation was full of thorns, and life and death were unpredictable. Every battle had to be fought with the determination and courage to die.
He had always done this.
However, at this juncture, Ying Wu Ji was still somewhat unwilling to give up.
His great life had just begun, how could he die here?
But so what if he was unwilling? His cultivation was here, and no matter what, he could not unleash power that far exceeded his cultivation level.
Then, he saw a bright flash of a blade slash before his eyes. All of the spells that were attacking him were destroyed in midair. Waves of heat swept out, attacking Ying Wuji's body and stirring up his mind.
He stared blankly at the back of the familiar figure that had suddenly appeared in front of him. Looking at the familiar long saber, he felt numb for a moment.
Niu Ming, a sorcerer?
From the Eastern Hill Pass? A cultivator from the Wan Mo Ridge? Liar!
When he first saw this person, he felt that this person was Lu Ye. But when he saw the battlefield mark on the back of this person's hand, he had to dispel his doubts.
Because the battlefield mark was a gift from the heavens. How could someone from the Grand Sky Alliance have the battlefield mark of the Wan Mo Ridge?
But he really did have it!
Many times, he felt that this person wanted to kill him. He originally thought it was an illusion, but now, it seemed that it was not.
It was a warning sign in his mind! It was his instinct to survive! It really was him!
It was him!
Even at this critical moment, Ying Wuji's mind was shaken by what he saw.
"Follow me!" Lu Ye had already recovered his original voice. He exhaled softly, and at the same time, the weapon box at his waist flew out. The Pan Mountain Saber slashed out a series of sharp saber lights, which crackled and cut through the waves.
As expected, the Mountain Pan Dao was more suitable for him. This was especially true when dealing with enemies like the Fire Spirit Race. Spells were simply too unreliable. If a spell was cast at full power, its power would be reduced by at least half when it struck the Fire Spirit Race's body. These Fire Spirits had an innate resistance to fire element spells.
With the long blade in hand, Lu Ye seemed to have become a different person. Spiritual energy surged around his body, and wherever he went, the Fire Spirit Race fell like straw in the wind.
Although Ying Wuji was shocked, he knew that if he did not follow Lu Ye's steps, he would die without a doubt.
He knew why Lu Ye was at this critical moment.
Hai J taught him not because of their insignificant friendship on the Wushuang Continent, but because of this moment.
The two of them working together was better than one fighting alone. Lu Ye needed someone to block the attacks from behind him.
He also cooperated very well, just like when they worked together on the Wushuang Continent.
The powerhouses of the Fire Spirit Race had not recovered yet, so it was the best time to escape. If they continued to delay, even Lu Ye would not be able to leave this place alive.
Looking down from the sky, countless Fire Spirit Race powerhouses filled the large karst cave, and in the crisscrossing ditches of the ruined city, more and more Fire Spirit Race powerhouses were still recovering.
In this world filled with Fire Spirit Race powerhouses, two figures, one in front and one behind, were unstoppable as they charged towards the entrance.
However, when they were a thousand feet away from the entrance, magma suddenly roiled up in front of them, quickly transforming into a giant palm that slammed down in Lu Ye and Ying Wuji's direction.
The giant palm slammed down with astonishing momentum, and all the Fire Spirit Race powerhouses it encountered along the way were knocked dizzy, many of them exploding and dying on the spot.
Lu Ye, who was charging at the front, was greatly alarmed. Looking up at the giant palm and sensing its power, he knew that a powerhouse of the Fire Spirit Race had secretly taken action. Perhaps they had not completely escaped, but they could already control sorcery.
If they had such ability without completely escaping, once they did, who knew what kind of shocking methods they could use?
In such a situation, they could either meet it head-on, or retreat.
There were many pursuers behind them, so they obviously could not retreat. They had fought so hard to reach this position, and if they retreated now, they might not be able to escape.
So, Lu Ye did not hesitate at all and rushed towards the giant palm.
With a thought, the power of his Talent Tree was stimulated, and roots invisible to the naked eye grew on the surface of his body. At the same time, he urged his Spirit Qi to pour into the long saber in his hand. In an instant, the Pan Shan Saber was wrapped in flames, as if it was really burning.
Lu Ye slashed forward fiercely, his tiny figure and the giant palm forming an extremely obvious visual contrast.
Immediately after, the giant palm submerged Lu Ye and Ying Wuji's figures.
I forgot to set the time. Recently, I've been a bit busy with all kinds of trivial matters.
