As everyone knows, Master Zhang has a special skill: dealing with wild beasts and strange creatures.
"Alright, let's leave this matter to Master Zhang."
Nodding, Zhang Shuhu waved to the crowd behind him, and everyone retreated more than a hundred meters.
Then, Master Zhang took a red bronze bell from his waist with one hand, and with the other hand, he quickly gestured and gently touched the bell. Immediately, a wisp of green smoke shot out from the bell.
In an instant, wisps of blue smoke billowed out from the bronze bell, initially as thick as a little finger, gradually growing into smoke as thick as an arm.
Everyone looked at Master Zhang and at the countless wisps of green smoke rising from the sky, their eyes gleaming with excitement.
"go!"
Master Zhang gave a soft shout and waved his hand. Countless wisps of green smoke, as if transformed into countless ropes, swept rapidly towards the large number of snake-beasts charging towards him.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
More than five or six hundred wisps of green smoke, like soaring ropes, bared their fangs and claws, and rushed upwards together.
Whether it was a one-meter-long snake, a five-meter-long snake, or a strange beast snake hidden in the forest, all of them were entangled in wisps of blue smoke.
Immediately afterwards, the snake-beasts entwined with green smoke seemed to lose control of their bodies, and one after another, they transformed into miniature figures and disappeared into Master Zhang's bronze bell.
At the same time, a grove of trees in front of the rocky cliff in the valley was also engulfed by the blue smoke. A grove of trees collapsed one after another, making a series of sounds as the trees snapped and branches and leaves flew up.
"I never expected that Master Zhang would have such a magical artifact, which can actually bring a large number of strange beasts under his control. What a wonderful method!"
Zhang Shuhu's eyes lit up as he spoke with a smile.
"A mere magical artifact, not worth mentioning."
Master Zhang smiled and said.
"Great! The grove of trees in front of the rocky cliff in the valley has been cleared out, so we don't have to worry about being ambushed anymore. Everyone, charge with me!"
After glancing ahead, Zhang Shuhu shouted something to the group of people behind him, then took a step forward and charged down the valley wall with the speed of a cheetah.
Immediately afterwards, Song Chunqiu, Liu Donglai, and a group of martial artists rushed forward with excited expressions.
"Kill them!"
A shout of battle rang out, echoing throughout the depths of the valley.
"Let's charge!"
Seeing a large number of martial artists rushing forward, Qin Hong also looked extremely excited, took a step forward, and rushed forward as well.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaofei also rushed forward, came to Qin Hong's side, and whispered:
Don't forget what Sect Leader Chen said before he led all of us inner disciples out of the sect's main courtyard: to stay at the back and not rush forward.
Li Datong, who was standing nearby, caught up and whispered, "
The valley walls are over a hundred meters high. We should wait until those at the front have climbed to the top before we rush in. Otherwise, there's no point in us rushing up; let's slow down a bit.”
Liu Hengchang followed, jogging at a leisurely pace.
"Zhang Shuhu, I killed your elder brother. Today you've come to my Black Wind Stronghold, do you want me to send you to see your elder brother?"
A loud shout came from above the rock wall in the valley.
Immediately afterwards, rows of bandits stood out from the upper edge of the valley wall. Two bandits lifted a large rock and threw it down the valley wall.
"Oh no, rocks are falling from above."
"Get out of the way!"
Many of the martial artists who rushed forward noticed this and were surprised, so they quickly shouted out.
Hundreds of stones, some the size of a wine bowl and others larger than an adult, fell from the top of the valley wall.
These stones fell from the top of the valley wall, generating a force equivalent to the full-force attack of an ordinary late-stage martial artist. The power wasn't too strong, but the sheer number of falling stones caused most martial artists to scramble and run around in panic.
However, the physical bodies of some ordinary late-stage and ordinary peak martial artists dare not withstand the falling stones head-on.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
In the time it takes to breathe, countless stones, like a hailstorm, fell continuously from above the village.
"ah!"
"My hand is broken."
In the blink of an eye, about thirty martial artists who had rushed forward were hit by the falling stones and cried out in pain.
Of course, those martial artists above the peak level unleashed astonishing speed, easily dodging the stones that were falling like hailstones.
Zhang Shuhu wielded a long sword, his swordsmanship swift and fierce, his speed like the wind. With a casual slash, he shattered the stone that was hurtling towards him.
Song Chunqiu, the head of the Song family, moved with an eerie, shadow-like gait. His palm strikes were domineering, like a whirlwind hammer, sending all the stones that fell toward him flying with a single blow.
Chen Longhai and many other experts rushed forward quickly and knocked away the falling stones.
Qin Hong glanced around and saw stones flying down from the top of the valley wall. His expression changed, and he was greatly shocked. He had never seen such a scene before.
Countless stones, like giant hailstones, continuously fell from the top of the valley's rock face.
The large rocks that flew down increased in speed and impact force, landing directly and quickly in front of the martial artists. Even some mid-level martial artists found it difficult to deal with them.
"kill!"
Song Chunqiu, the head of the Song family, shouted loudly and burst into speed, quickly rushing to the bottom of the valley wall. He placed one hand on the wall and moved his hands back and forth, preparing to rush up the valley wall.
A huge rock flew down.
Song Chunqiu's palm force seemed to increase from three thousand jin to more than ten thousand jin in an instant.
Snap!
As the stone flew down, about to hit his head, Song Chunqiu grabbed the stone wall with one hand and stretched out the other to slap the incoming stone away.
A rock about two meters long and one meter thick was smashed open with a single palm strike, making a cracking sound.
Burn them alive!
Another loud shout came from above the rocky cliff in the valley.
Immediately afterwards, one after another, large, spherical vines, woven together and burning fiercely, were thrown from above the valley's rock face.
These burning, round vines, each about three meters thick, rolled down from the top of a stone wall more than two hundred meters high, creating enormous balls of fire that seemed ready to burn everything.
"Keep throwing!"
Several fireballs were thrown from the top of the valley wall. Song Chunqiu glanced at them but did not dodge. He unleashed his inner energy, gripped the stone wall tightly with both hands, and continued to climb up the wall.
The instant the fireball landed, he slapped his other hand upwards.
The force of his palm strike was like a raging storm!
With a single palm strike, a current of energy seemed to swirl around the fireball, instantly shattering the vine-covered fireball.
Immediately afterwards, he grabbed the stone wall with his other hand, and with a strong pull, he climbed up the stone wall like a monkey.
While dodging the falling fireballs, he kept climbing the rock wall with both hands, as if he would soon be climbing to the top of the valley wall.
Chen Longhai wielded a long saber, creating a whirlwind of motion. In the blink of an eye, his swordsmanship was astonishing, slicing apart the incoming fireballs and scattering them in all directions.
Then, he swung his longsword again, and a wave of energy shot out from it.
The scattered flames before my eyes were extinguished by a gust of wind, as if they had encountered a strong gust of wind.
He flashed and leaped, quickly landing on the rock face of the valley. Grabbing the rock face with one hand, he exerted force and quickly rose upwards.
Chen Longhai and Song Chunqiu quickly climbed up the rocky cliff of the valley, simultaneously smashing the falling fire tree vine balls.
"kill!"
Zhang Shuhu also climbed up the rock wall in the valley and shouted loudly.
He leaped up and quickly climbed to the edge of the rock face above the valley. With a twirl of his long sword, he charged toward the bandits of Black Wind Stronghold.
"Kill them!"
When the bandits on the mountain wall above the valley saw Zhang Shuhu and his men rushing up, they stopped throwing fireballs made of vines, and some of the bandits instead rushed out of the village.
