The group walked for two hours through a forest and arrived at the foot of a large mountain.
As they walked at the foot of the mountain, they all stopped and looked up. They saw thousands of monsters hidden in the forest.
Wu Ren and the dozen or so Golden Core cultivators all had slight changes in expression.
In the forest below the mountainside, there are at least ten thousand first-tier demonic beasts.
On the mountainside, there were more than 120 second-tier demonic beasts. Although most of them were early-stage second-tier demonic beasts, there were also more than ten late-stage second-tier demonic beasts.
Finally, the most eye-catching creature was a third-tier fire fox demon king, its entire body a deep orange-red. It crouched atop the mountain, its cold eyes fixed on a group of cultivators at the foot of the mountain.
As the group of cultivators gradually approached, the Fire Fox Demon King saw the Lonely True Monarch, and a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes. A soaring demonic aura emanated from his body.
In an instant, that demonic aura erupted like a volcanic eruption, giving people a scorching feeling.
Aww!
Suddenly, the Fire Fox Demon King let out a howl, and all the demon beasts turned to look at Lin Xiaofei and the others.
At this moment, Wu Ren took a few steps back, came to the side of the Lonely True Lord, and said:
"Seniors, the monsters on the mountain have discovered us. What should we do?"
"That demon king clearly seemed a little wary, but the fire fox wasn't wary of you. You just need to go and hunt down those first-tier demon beasts."
The rest is none of your business.
"The Lonely True Lord said calmly."
"yes!"
Wu Ren responded and, upon hearing that the demon king would not attack them, secretly breathed a sigh of relief before rushing forward to fight the first-tier demon beasts.
“Fellow Daoist Black God, my target is that third-tier fire fox.”
However, the more than one hundred second-tier demonic beasts surrounding the fire fox were an obstacle.
If I rush up now, it will probably command over a hundred second-tier demonic beasts to pounce on us, and we won't be able to take down that fire fox anytime soon.
So, you should rush up first and fight those second-tier demonic beasts.
As for me, I'll keep an eye on the fire fox, and I'll make my move immediately if it makes a move.
The Lonely True Monarch turned slightly, glanced at Lin Xiaofei, and smiled as he spoke.
"True Lord, I'm afraid I might not be able to handle facing over a hundred second-tier demonic beasts all by myself, after all, I'm just a late-stage Golden Core cultivator."
If I wait until I kill these hundred-plus second-tier demonic beasts, I estimate that my spiritual energy will be almost depleted.
"Then how am I supposed to help you hunt that Tier 3 Fire Fox?"
Lin Xiaofei smiled and said, half-jokingly.
At this moment, he had begun to have some doubts about the Lonely True Lord.
As he walked through the forest, every time he dug up a top-grade spiritual herb, he always felt a pair of eyes watching him from not far behind, which made him feel a little awkward.
Therefore, after each time he dug up a first-grade spiritual herb, he would carefully observe the surrounding movements, but there was no one else in the surrounding forest.
After some thought, he thought of the Lonely True Lord beside him. Since leaving Red Forest City, the Lonely True Lord seemed to be very warm towards him, his eyes filled with gentleness and passion.
Moreover, they had clearly agreed to hunt down a third-tier demon king together, but now they've changed their minds.
“Fellow Daoist Black God, you possess the strength of a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator. If you were to attack with all your might, you could probably kill those second-tier demonic beasts in no time.”
Of course, if you really can't handle it, then step back, and we'll attack together.
The Lonely True Lord smiled and said.
"Alright, then I'll go hunt down some second-tier monsters now."
Lin Xiaofei nodded, knowing he couldn't say anything more, and then flashed off towards the mountainside.
Then, he stretched out a hand, waved it gently, and unleashed a minor supernatural power that froze ten miles away.
A beam of light streaked across the void, swiftly shooting towards several second-tier demonic beasts. It struck one of the second-tier demonic beasts, and in the blink of an eye, an area of seven or eight zhang was transformed into a frozen wasteland.
"That senior made a move, and now we're not so scared anymore."
This time, we must hunt as many first-tier demonic beasts as possible. That way, we won't have to worry about displeasing our two seniors, and they won't punish us.
At this moment, Wu Ren saw Lin Xiaofei make his move from afar and said with a hint of excitement.
The other Golden Core cultivators also looked more relaxed.
They originally thought they were going to be used as cannon fodder by Lonely True Lord, but when they saw Lin Xiaofei take action, they were immediately in a good mood and realized that the other party was not going to use them as cannon fodder.
At this moment, the Lonely True Monarch glanced at Lin Xiaofei, who had rushed up to the mountainside, a wicked smile playing on his lips, and thought to himself:
"Black God Master, I didn't expect you to believe me so easily. You can only blame your bad luck."
When he saw the fire fox at the top, he had already thought of a plan: to have Lin Xiaofei attack the second-tier demon beast first, which would anger the fire fox demon king.
When the Demon King attacks Lin Xiaofei, he will rush forward.
roar!
roar!
Lin Xiaofei killed five second-tier demonic beasts, which immediately caused the other second-tier demonic beasts to roar. Then, they moved and quickly pounced towards Lin Xiaofei.
roar!
Soon, the howling beasts, numbering over a hundred, quickly formed a circle around Lin Xiaofei.
In addition, the fire fox on the mountaintop released a soaring demonic aura that quickly covered every second-tier demon beast, causing their aura to surge.
In a short while, more than a hundred second-tier early, mid, and late-stage demonic beasts actually exuded the aura of the peak of the second tier.
Lin Xiaofei's gaze sharpened, and he immediately felt a bit troubled. He hadn't expected that the demon king had such a trick up his sleeve.
More than a hundred second-tier demonic beasts leaped continuously, forming a siege formation, and gradually charged forward.
Lin Xiaofei glanced around, took a step forward, and used the Divine Speed Technique at its perfect level. His figure was extremely agile, and he directly dodged the attack of a group of demonic beasts.
Then, he rushed toward the woods on the other side of the hillside.
Immediately afterwards, the more than one hundred second-tier demonic beasts chased after him, opening their mouths wide and unleashing wave after wave of demonic magic to attack Lin Xiaofei.
The fire fox glanced at Lonely True Monarch from afar. Seeing that Lonely True Monarch made no move, it slowly took a step forward and began to stroll on the mountaintop.
"roar!"
Suddenly, the fire fox roared and leaped forward like an orange-red lightning bolt, rushing towards Lin Xiaofei's direction.
Immediately, the more than one hundred second-tier demonic beasts that were chasing Lin Xiaofei stopped in their tracks upon hearing the Demon King's shout and ceased their pursuit.
Immediately, they opened their mouths and unleashed wave after wave of demonic magic, bombarding the dodging Lin Xiaofei.
"What is this Black God Master doing?"
He actually lured away a group of second-tier demonic beasts! How am I supposed to observe him and deal with him now?
Lonely True Monarch frowned, thinking to himself. Without hesitation, he flashed and rushed into the mountainside, preparing to approach the grove of trees to lure the Demon King into attacking Lin Xiaofei.
