A large puff of blood mist exploded on the Black Demon's shoulder, causing him to howl in pain. This aroused his ferocity, and he roared, grabbing Lan Xueruo's jade sword with his palm and swung it violently... Lan Xueruo's "Emperor Sword" had just run out of power, and the Black Demon's strength was astonishingly great. She was caught off guard and the Black Demon snatched the jade sword away from her.
Damn it! Seeing Lan Xueruo injure the Black Demon with a sword, Yun Che's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If she fought with the Black Demon, she could buy a little more time and pierce his shoulder, which would undoubtedly directly arouse his ferocity. The consequences can be imagined.
The Black Demon grabbed Lan Xueruo's sword and retreated in panic. His face was already ferocious, and he roared wildly: "Catch that woman! Kill the rest without mercy! "
As Yun Che expected, the furious Black Demon gave the order directly. In an instant, the Black Demon Mercenaries, who had been waiting for a long time, raised their weapons and rushed forward with a roar. The three deputy leaders attacked Lan Xueruo at the same time.
If they rushed over, there was no telling how many people here would be killed or injured. Yun Che no longer dared to hesitate, and quickly came to Lan Xueruo's side, grasped a thunderbolt in his right hand, and threw it with all his strength.
BOOM!!!!
The thunderbolt hit the ground, making a loud roar like thunder from heaven, and all the dozen or so black magic mercenaries at the front were blown away, lying on the ground wailing in pain. Six of them had their legs broken, three were covered in blood, and the others all suffered varying degrees of injuries.
The Black Demon Mercenary Corps that had just launched the charge suddenly stopped there. Each of them had a dazed look on their face, staring at the huge hole created by the explosion and gasping for air. Even the Black Demon who was having someone apply medicine on the wound had his eyes wide open. The three deputy captains all took a step back with fear on their faces.
"That...what was that...what happened just now?"
Yun Che held the second Sky-shaking Thunder in his hand, and grabbed a poisonous fire gun in his left hand. He protected Lan Xueruo and looked coldly at the Black Magic Mercenaries who dared not move forward in fear. He sneered, “Whoever wants to die, take another step forward and try!”
Lan Xueruo glanced at the thing in Yun Che’s hand and suddenly exclaimed, “Sky-shaking Thunder? How did you get Xiao Sect’s Sky-shaking Thunder?”
“I took it from the branch sect’s treasure house.” Yun Che whispered, pulling Lan Xueruo back step by step until he was next to Feng Baichuan.
The thunder bomb just now undoubtedly brought a huge deterrent effect, making these black magic mercenaries dare not move forward for a while.
"Feng clan leader, is there a place where you can temporarily hide?" Yun Che raised his hand holding the thunderbolt, looked at the Black Devil Mercenary Group in front of him with a sinister look, and lowered his voice to Feng Baichuan. There were a total of six thunderbolts, three of which were used against Xiao Zaihe, and one was used just now. At present, he only had two left, and all he could do was to temporarily deter.
Yun Che's words made Feng Baichuan's expression stiffen for a moment, but he didn't say anything.
Yun Che said in a deep voice: “These people said that there is a sealing formation in your back mountain. Is that true? You must have a way to open that sealing formation. Let the clan members retreat inside, and then open the sealing formation. At least you can keep everyone safe temporarily.”
“No!” To Yun Che’s surprise, Feng Baichuan did not deny it, but directly refused: “That is the place where the Phoenix left behind. There is the Phoenix spirit there. If all the clan members go there, it will definitely offend the Phoenix spirit, and it will be even more impossible for it to forgive the sins committed by our clan.”
Yun Che gritted his teeth and said, “These people all have a strong smell of blood on their bodies, which means they have killed many people. I guess the name of their mercenary group is just a cover, but in essence they are a bandit group that kills and robs people. If they really start to fight, they will kill your people without mercy! Your people are almost dead, and you still care about whether they offend or not!!”
Yun Che’s words made Feng Baichuan’s face change drastically. He glanced at Feng Zu’er and Feng Xian’er who were leaning against him, gritted his teeth, and whispered to the old man beside him: “Notify all the clansmen to retreat to the back mountain!”
"Chief, are you going to..."
"Go quickly! Saving your life is the most important thing, don't worry about anything else!" Feng Baichuan said sternly after making up his mind.
The people who received the order began to retreat together towards the back of the mountain. Yun Che and Lan Xueruo still stood there, the thunderbolts in their hands were like the sickles of the god of death, shocking the Black Demon Mercenaries so much that they dared not move forward.
"What the hell is that?" The Black Demon pressed his shoulder and said with a twitching face.
"I've heard before that Xiao Zong's Weapon Master created a terrifying weapon. Once it's thrown out, there will be a terrifying explosion of power. What he threw out just now seems to be that kind of thing!" A person next to Black Demon whispered.
"What? Xiao Zong? You mean Xiao Zong?" Black Demon's body trembled suddenly, and he almost fell to the ground in shock. He suddenly thought that this stunning girl in front of him looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she already had the profound strength of the third level of the True Profound Realm. Apart from the terrifying four major sects, where else could such a monster be cultivated?
The more he thought about it, the more possible it was. Hei Mo suddenly broke into a sweat. If he had known that they were from the Xiao Sect, he would never have dared to provoke them even if he had ten thousand courage. But now, he has already provoked them...
The Black Demon gritted his teeth... Then he could only kill everyone except that woman! Otherwise, if they escaped... Xiao Zong wanted to destroy his small mercenary group, which was just like crushing a small ant.
"They're trying to escape!"
Deputy leader Black Wolf spoke up. While they were afraid to move forward, Feng Baichuan was leading his tribesmen to retreat quickly, heading straight towards the back mountain.
"Damn, they want to leave? The back mountain is full of cliffs. They can't fly out even if they have wings! Chase them!" the black devil ordered.
“But…but…” Black Wolf glanced at the Sky-shaking Thunder in Yun Che’s hand and did not dare to move at all.
"This thing is so powerful, it must be very precious! They can't have too many of them, maybe this is the last one! Split up and chase after them immediately!"
The Black Devil Mercenary Group's team quickly dispersed, splitting into two wings, howling and chasing in the direction of the back mountain. Yun Che's face darkened, and he swung his arm, throwing the thunderbolt in his hand to the right, and then quickly took out the last thunderbolt and threw it to the left with all his strength.
Boom! !
Boom! !
Two loud bangs blew up the Black Devil Mercenaries, who were thrown to the ground and screamed in agony. The entire valley was filled with dust. The Black Devil Mercenaries' momentum stopped again. Some people even sat down on the ground while retreating, and dared not move forward. It is human instinct to cherish life. Faced with such a threat that could easily take someone's life, they were instinctively afraid. No one was willing to risk their own life and move forward.
“Senior Sister, let’s go!!” After the last thunderbolt was used up, Yun Che took Lan Xueruo’s hand and chased in the direction of Feng Baichuan and the others at the fastest speed, using the dust that blocked his vision.
When the dust settled, Yun Che and his companions were nowhere to be seen. The dilapidated village was deserted, and only a few scattered people could be seen in the distance running towards the back mountain. The Black Demon cursed for a while, and then roared: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and chase them! Except for that woman, kill them all without mercy!!"
Yun Che's injuries had not healed, and his body was relatively weak, but with Lan Xueruo leading him, he still quickly caught up with Feng Baichuan. A total of 212 clan members followed closely behind him, regardless of whether they were old or young, not one was left behind.
The shouting and screaming came from far away in the rear, getting closer and closer, and we might be caught up at any time.
Entering the back mountain area, they saw a vast expanse of cliffs that were so high that they could not see the top. And right in front of them, a huge formation that was more than ten meters high was embedded on the mountain wall. The entire formation was a gorgeous red color, flickering from time to time. The pattern in the formation seemed like countless clusters of fiercely burning red flames.
“Is this the sealing formation that the Black Magic Mercenary Group mentioned?” Yun Che raised his head and looked at this strange red formation in amazement.
"That's right. This is a sealing formation, sealing the remains of the ancient mythical beast Phoenix. Only the blood of those of us with Phoenix blood can open it." Feng Baichuan said.
"Chief, do we really want to enter here? Our ancestors said that only one person can enter here at a time. If so many people go in, it might offend the spirit of the Phoenix." An old man said with a heavy face.
"There is no other choice." Feng Baichuan quickly walked to the formation, bit his finger, and sprinkled his blood on the sealing formation.
Suddenly, the looming sealing array suddenly emitted a bright red light, and then slowly disappeared. An irregular entrance appeared below the sealing array.
"Hurry! Go in quickly!" Feng Baichuan, who had lifted the seal, turned around and said hurriedly.
Suddenly, the Phoenix clan members filed in. This sacred place that they usually dared not easily step into became their only way to save their lives. Many of them would rather die than do anything that might offend the Phoenix spirit, but they could not ignore their families and children.
After everyone entered the cave, the Black Demon Mercenary Group finally caught up. Feng Baichuan rushed into the cave at full speed, and as he made a simple gesture, the disappeared red seal array reappeared, completely covering the cave.
“Damn it! They really do know how to open this seal!” The Black Demon clenched his fists and said viciously: “They have been denying it before, which means there must be some treasure hidden behind this seal!”
"Captain, what should we do now?"
"What should we do? Of course we should wait here!" The Black Devil sneered, "Do they think that if they escape inside, we will have no way to deal with them? Hey, there must be no food or water in here. I don't believe that they would rather die of thirst and hunger than come out. I want to see how long they can hold on!"
