Chapter 73 Don’t Get Eaten by the Monster
A huge monster covered in black suddenly appeared like a ghost, and bit Tong Wenkang who was digging stone orchid.
By the time they realized the danger, it was too late. Tong Wenkang subconsciously raised his hand to block it, but his entire left arm was bitten off on the spot, and he was instantly covered in blood.
Fortunately, Xu You still had some respect for fellow disciples and quickly helped him, thus saving Tong Wenkang's life.
As for Xie Mingzhu and Xiao Chi, they quickly ran out of the cave the moment Tong Wenkang was injured, without caring about the lives of their fellow disciples at all.
The moment Qiu Yu saw the monster clearly, the blood drained from her face. This was a monster comparable to that in the late foundation building stage. It was simply not something that she, who was in the early foundation building stage, and those Qi refining disciples could deal with.
But Yan Tong Wenkang and Xu You were blocked by the monster and couldn't escape at all. Qiu Yu glanced at Xie Mingzhu and Xiao Chi who were running for their lives, and finally gritted his teeth and rushed forward with the sword in hand.
Qiu Yu is not a serious sword practitioner, and she is not very good at using the sword, but at this moment the spiritual sword in her hand became her only weapon with which to fight for her life.
When the monster opened its mouth wide and tried to bite Tong Wenkang and the others again, Qiu Yu acted in time and stabbed the monster's eye with a sword.
The monster howled in pain, and Tong Wenkang, whose neck was almost bitten off, escaped again.
Qiu Yu didn't care about anything else and immediately shouted to the two of them, "Run, throw out those bone-rotting stone orchids, and get out of the cave quickly!"
Tong Wenkang's mind finally became clear after hearing this loud shout.
He took advantage of Xu You's support and quickly ran towards the cave entrance.
The passage in the cave was very narrow, and the monster definitely couldn't get through. Now that the monster had been enraged, it would probably bite them to death.
One of them was injured and the other had low cultivation. If they continued to stay, not only would they not be able to help Qiu Yu, but would also cause trouble for the other party. They could only escape as soon as possible so that Qiu Yu could free his hands and feet to find a way out.
However, Tong Wenkang was not so shameless as to only care about his own life. With trembling hands, he took out a magic weapon from his storage bag and threw it to Qiu Yu behind him.
After the other party received the item with great difficulty, he shouted: "That is a defensive spiritual armor that can withstand the attack of a Jindan stage monster. Thank you for what you did today!"
After saying these few words, the two of them quickly disappeared into the long corridor, leaving Qiu Yu completely behind.
Qiu Yu didn't hesitate and activated the magic weapon immediately. The next second, her whole body was wrapped in a light and thin soft armor.
With this soft armor, Qiu Yu felt that his life was finally somewhat protected.
But the next second, she was thrown to the ground by the angry monster's tail.
Even with the protection of soft armor, Qiu Yu still felt a sweetness in his throat and vomited blood.
But Qiu Yu didn't dare to stop. She knew that no one would come back to save her. If she didn't find a way to save herself, she would be the one to die here!
On the other side, Xie Mingzhu, who was the first to run into the corridor, did not dare to stop for a moment. She was frightened by the ferocious aura of the monster before she even saw its appearance clearly.
Recalling the thrilling moment just now, Xie Mingzhu couldn't help but feel resentful.
If these people weren't so incompetent that they couldn't even defeat a Foundation Establishment monster, why would she have to flee in such a miserable way and be forced to give up so many Rotten Bone Stone Orchids?
Fortunately, before Xie Mingzhu escaped, she took advantage of the chaos to grab a stone orchid and put it into her storage bag, so this trip was not in vain.
Xie Mingzhu was secretly delighted. Just when the two were about to run out of the cave, they ran into another group of people.
Jiang Shan, the leader, had just led several younger sisters and brothers towards the cave. Before they could take the next step, they saw several familiar figures suddenly rushing out of the cave.
Jiang Shan recognized them at a glance as disciples of their Qingxiao Sect. Just as he was about to ask them what had happened and why they were running out in panic, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
Tong Wenkang and Xu You also hurriedly ran out behind Xie Mingzhu and the others. Unlike Xie Mingzhu and the others, Xu You immediately asked for help when he saw Jiang Shan and the others:
"Brother Jiang, please come and help. There is a late-stage foundation-building monster hiding in this cave. Sister Qiu Yu stayed inside to save us. Please go and save her!"
"You three should take the wounded away quickly. Leyu, come with me to save them!" Jiang Shan gave the orders without saying a word as soon as he saw Wenkang's injured arm.
Xie Liuyin glanced at Xie Mingzhu who was hiding behind Xiao Chi, and naturally did not miss the fleeting guilty look on his adopted sister's face.
She immediately realized that this matter must be related to Xie Mingzhu, but since Senior Brother Jiang Shan had given the order, she was worried that if she barged in rashly, it would cause trouble for them, so she planned to do as Jiang Shan said first.
If anything unexpected happens, she will act accordingly.
Thinking of this, Xie Liuyin quickly took out the pill he carried with him and fed it to Tong Wenkang to stop his bleeding.
"It's still dangerous here. Let's find a safe place to settle down for the time being." Hua Lingxue suggested this when she saw that Xu You and the others were not in good condition.
Xie Liuyin nodded: "You can take Brother Tong and the others away first. I will wait for Brother Jiang Shan here. Don't worry, if there is any accident, I will contact you as soon as possible."
Hua Lingxue was aware of the strength of her junior uncle, and also knew that she was probably the only one among the few people who was qualified to stay and support Jiang Shan and the others.
She had no choice but to nod to Xie Liuyin, and then asked Xu Wuyin and Xu You to carry Tong Wenkang away quickly.
Before leaving, Xie Mingzhu did not forget to disgust Xie Liuyin, and had to walk around to her and pretend to say, "Oh, sister, the monster in there is very ferocious. You have to be careful when you stay here, and don't get eaten by the monster."
When she said the last sentence, Xie Mingzhu's tone became a little heavier.
Xie Liuyin tilted her head to look at her: "Don't worry, I will live well with you as my sister."
Their eyes met briefly, then quickly looked away.
Hua Lingxue and the others quickly moved away from the hill, but Xie Liuyin, who stayed here, found that the spiritual energy in the cave was becoming more and more violent.
"roar!"
A ferocious roar of a monster came through the long corridor and pounced towards Xie Liuyin. Just from the sound, she could imagine how terrifying the monster was.
However, the situation of Jiang Shan and his companions was far more difficult than Xie Liuyin had imagined, because it was not until this moment that they finally realized that this was not a demon beast in the late foundation building stage at all.
The reason why this monster hid in the cave and guarded this bunch of rotten bone stone orchids was because it was injured now. Half of its wings were torn off in a fight with other monsters, and its cultivation level also dropped.
But before that, it was a demon beast that had just advanced to the Jindan stage!
At this moment, being besieged by three people, it finally realized that it was not strong enough to kill these intruders.
The monster's ferocious eyes swept over the three people one by one, then it turned its head and gnawed off a few bone-rot stone orchids.
The originally broken wings began to recover little by little as the power of the medicine flowed into the blood vessels...
