Facing old man Qiao's question, Lu Qing has not yet spoken.
The middle-aged man who had been silent all this time suddenly said, "My cultivation is shallow, and I don't have the ability to cross this windy plain alone. Let's go back with everyone."
Lu Qing also whispered: "I feel the same way. The monster just now was obviously a Jindan-level demon beast. I am no match for it."
"In that case, let's go back together so we can take care of each other."
When Old Man Qiao heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
If he were alone, he wouldn't be too afraid of this windy plain.
But now that he has two children, he has more concerns.
Don't cross this windy plain rashly.
The middle-aged man and Lu Qing decided to return together, at least there were two more Jindan realm people to take care of each other.
On the other side, the armored man saw the thin young man and the woman in red suddenly leave. Although he was unhappy, he could do nothing about it.
There was no way around it. These Jindan realm masters were not in an employment relationship with their shipping company.
The other party wanted to leave, and he had no way to stop him.
Fortunately, Old Man Qiao, Lu Qing and the other two finally chose to return together.
Otherwise, he really had no confidence that he could return to the valley safely with these people.
The armored man already knew it from the moment he saw the Jindan realm wind beast.
Something shocking must have happened inside the Windy Plains.
Otherwise, a wind beast in the Jindan realm would not have appeared in this marginal area.
In addition, he had always had a vague feeling in his heart that in the endless wind and sand, there seemed to be something that was always spying on their convoy.
So even if he chose to return now, his heart was still hanging.
He had a feeling that the return journey would not be so smooth.
Just as the armored man was thinking, suddenly, he felt a start in his heart and then looked up suddenly.
Then, he saw three monstrous wind beasts gathering in front of him and suddenly pouncing towards them.
This sudden change made everyone scream.
Especially these three wind beasts, each of them is at the Jindan level, and their body size alone is more than ten feet tall.
The three heads pounced at him together, and the murderous aura that was almost condensed into substance rushed towards him.
Those with weaker cultivation were instantly shocked to the point that their souls turned cold, their bodies became stiff, and they could hardly move.
"How dare a mere wind beast be so presumptuous! Form a formation!"
The armored man's eyes turned cold, and the spear magic weapon in his hand suddenly turned into a roaring dragon and rushed towards one of the wind beasts.
At the same time, a companion next to him who was also in the Jindan realm also took out a precious sword and slashed out a huge golden sword energy, heading towards another wind beast.
The remaining guards of the shipping company formed a mysterious battle formation, and with their concerted efforts, they condensed a giant magical bear and pounced on the last wind beast.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The power of the mad dragon and the sword energy was extraordinary, and they immediately blew away two of the wind beasts.
The last remaining wind beast was also bitten by the giant magical bear condensed by the guards.
It only lasted for a few breaths before it exploded and turned into sandstorm.
All of a sudden, the wind beast, which was so ferocious just now and looked like an ancient ferocious beast, was blown away.
But before everyone had time to be happy, the next moment, wind and sand gathered.
The three wind beasts that had just been blown apart gathered together again and continued to pounce towards this side.
"No matter how many times you can be reborn, I will kill you!"
Leng Ning, the armored man, seemed to have anticipated this. He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and the mad dragon transformed from the spear magic weapon roared and knocked away another wind beast.
The companions who were wielding swords and the guards nearby also used their magic powers again to rush towards the other two wind beasts.
However, at this moment, two more roars sounded from behind.
However, two equally huge wind beasts appeared at the rear of the convoy and pounced on them.
"How come there are so many Jindan-level wind beasts here?"
The armored man's face suddenly turned grim when he saw this.
He originally felt strange that a Jindan-level wind beast appeared in this marginal area.
Now five of them appeared at once, and a very scary guess instantly emerged in his mind.
Could it be that these wind beasts are controlled by something?
Otherwise, why would the wind beasts, which are usually of low intelligence, attack them in such a concerted manner?
Moreover, his actions were methodical and he knew how to attack from both sides.
But how is this possible?
Although wind beasts have low intelligence, their temperaments are extremely ferocious. What kind of existence can suppress their ferocity and make them surrender?
Many thoughts flashed through the armored man's mind.
But seeing that the two wind beasts behind were approaching the convoy, he didn't have time to think too much about it.
He could only yell, “Mr. Qiao, I’ll leave the rest to you!”
The convoy behind was also covered by the light of the windshield lights.
But he certainly couldn't resist the attacks of the two Jindan-level wind beasts. With his two clones too weak to do anything, the armored man could only ask Lu Qing and the others for help.
"My two fellow Taoists, it seems we have to do our part as well!"
When Old Man Qiao heard the roar of the armored man, he did not hesitate and immediately took out a magic iron ruler, which suddenly grew larger, emitting precious light, and hit one of the wind beasts.
Lu Qing and the taciturn middle-aged man did not delay either. They also took out their magic weapons and rushed towards the other wind beast.
The middle-aged man's magic weapon was a black iron stick. After he used it, it was like a violent black dragon, constantly whipping at the wind beast.
What Lu Qing summoned was a flying sword.
The sword light was also extremely powerful as it split into layers of sword light, which directly crushed one of the wind beast's arms and half of its body.
"This young man's sword-controlling skills are extraordinary. Could it be that he is also a sword cultivator?"
Old man Qiao has a high level of cultivation. Although he is dealing with a wind beast alone, he still has the mind to observe Lu Qing and the middle-aged man.
Seeing Lu Qing summon out the flying sword and destroy half of the wind beast's body with one strike, he was slightly surprised.
Because Lu Qing's cultivation level is only the first level of lower grade golden elixir.
And the several wind beasts have at least the strength of the second or third level.
Lu Qing was able to destroy half of the body of one of them with just one strike.
Apart from sword cultivators, few other cultivators can achieve this kind of attack power.
The middle-aged man was also shocked when he saw this scene.
I didn't expect that Lu Qing was such an ordinary guy, the one with the lowest cultivation among them.
It would be fine if he didn't make a move, but once he did, it was so fierce.
However, the middle-aged man reacted quickly. When he saw the wind beast reveal a flaw, his eyes immediately focused.
The black dragon transformed from the black iron rod suddenly became more powerful and smashed the other side of the wind beast's body into pieces.
"Haha, good! Very good!"
The armored man in front of the convoy sensed this scene and immediately became excited.
Originally he was worried that Old Man Qiao and his companions would not be able to stop the two wind beasts behind them.
If that happens, most of them will be defeated here as they are attacked from all sides.
Now that Old Man Qiao and his men can hold off, they still have hope.
Immediately, the armored man gave the order: "Let's go to the direction of the valley. Everyone, follow us and don't fall behind, otherwise you will lose your life!"
Then he shouted again: "Mr. Qiao, you guys hold on from the back. The wind beasts can't leave the Wind Plains. As long as we return to the valley, we will be safe!"
After saying that, the armored man activated the wind-fixing lamp that had been hanging at the front of the convoy, parted the strong wind in front, and moved forward slowly.
Seeing this, the small caravan behind hurried to catch up, fearing that if they fell behind by a step, they would be swallowed up by the endless sandstorm and smashed to pieces by the terrifying wind beast.
The entire convoy started moving again, slowly approaching the valley.
During this process, the five wind beasts continued to attack the convoy relentlessly.
No matter how many times they were blown apart, they would regroup and rush towards the convoy again with the same power.
The strange and immortal appearance made everyone terrified.
Fortunately, only five wind beasts condensed in the endless wind and sand.
If there was one more, they would all be buried here.
boom!
After blasting the wind beast apart once again, Lu Qing frowned as he saw it re-condense in less than a few breaths.
“Mr. Qiao, this is not a solution.
These wind beasts cannot be killed no matter what, they keep attacking like this.
I'm afraid that before we reach the valley, our magic power will be exhausted and we will not be able to hold on any longer.
You are well-informed, but don't you know how to completely kill these wind beasts?"
"The wind beast cannot be killed."
However, Old Man Qiao shook his head and activated his magic weapon, the Iron Ruler, to smash the wind beast's head.
“The power of the wind beast comes from this Wind Plain, and was bred in the Netherworld Wind Cave deep in the Wind Plain.
Even if they can be completely defeated, they will be reborn from the Nether Wind Tunnel before long.
This is also the reason why the Windy Plain has always existed.
Otherwise, if the wind beast could be killed, there would have been sectarian forces that would have leveled the Wind Plains.”
"We can't kill them, but we can defeat them and let them be reborn in the Nether Wind Tunnel?" Lu Qing keenly grasped what Old Man Qiao said, "Then how can we completely defeat these wind beasts?"
“That’s also extremely difficult.”
Old Man Qiao sighed, “It is said that there is a wind bead inside the body of this wind beast, which is its core.
But this wind bead is condensed from the rules of wind and can gather and disperse invisibly.
Once the wind beasts are dispersed, their wind beads will also dissipate along with their bodies.
Only at the moment when the wind beast's body collapsed and the wind beads had no time to completely dissipate.
Only by concentrating all power and destroying the wind beads can the wind beast be completely defeated.
After losing the wind bead, the wind beast's true spirit can only return to the Netherworld Wind Tunnel.
It was not until the wind bead was condensed again that it was born again.
But it is not easy for us to blow apart the bodies of these wind beasts now.
It would be even more difficult to seize the fleeting opportunity and destroy the wind bead condensed by the law of wind.
I'm afraid that only a late Jindan strongman who has condensed a top-grade Jindan can do it."
The middle-aged man beside him shook his head secretly when he heard this.
The powerful person who is in the late stage of Jindan and can condense the top-grade Jindan is the one that everyone here has to look up to.
They are absolutely unable to accomplish things that require such strong people to accomplish.
However, after listening to what old man Qiao said, Lu Qing became thoughtful.
Old Man Qiao had been observing Lu Qing's expression.
After all, he always felt that this young Taoist friend was somewhat mysterious.
Seeing him like this, I was moved and couldn't help but ask, "Does Daoist friend have a solution?"
"I have an idea."
Lu Qing did not keep the man in suspense and defeated the condensed wind beast again.
He said directly: "I have a sword technique that can unleash extraordinary power.
Wait until I have finished my preparations, Mr. Qiao, you can try your best to blow up a wind beast.
I will try to see if I can seize that opportunity and kill a wind beast temporarily."
"My friend, can you really do this?"
Mr. Qiao was startled and asked quickly.
The middle-aged man next to him also looked at Lu Qing with a surprised expression.
"We have to give it a try. Otherwise, at our current speed, we might run out of mana before we reach the valley."
Old man Qiao fell into silence.
He also understood that Lu Qing was telling the truth.
Before that, they took advantage of the lull in the strong wind to enter the Wind Plain.
The speed of travel at that time was far from what it is now.
Therefore, if they want to return to the valley now, the time they need to spend will definitely double.
Judging from the way these wind beasts are fighting, their magic power may not be able to last that long.
"good!"
After thinking this through, Old Man Qiao gritted his teeth and nodded immediately.
"Since you are so confident, I will try my best to cooperate with you this time!"
"Fellow Daoist Shi, I need to gather my sword power. You will have to fend off this wind beast temporarily."
Lu Qing said to the middle-aged man.
"Don't worry, I'm no match for this wind beast, but if I just want to entangle it, I can still do it!"
The middle-aged man laughed.
But his face was no longer the silent and gloomy look he had always had.
Seeing this, Lu Qing no longer hesitated and flew onto a carriage.
He retracted his flying sword, suspended it in front of him, and began to concentrate his sword intent.
However, Old Man Qiao and the middle-aged man continued to resist the two wind beasts.
Especially the middle-aged man, the black dragon transformed by the black stick magic weapon no longer attacked violently, but instead became defensive.
The black dragon spun around, surrounding the wind beast and blocking it from approaching the convoy.
However, while the two of them were trying their best to resist the wind beast, they still paid some attention to observe Lu Qing's movements.
Then they saw that Lu Qing was gathering strength.
The flying sword floating in front of him began to emit a ray of sword light.
The sword intent emanating from the sword made everyone around feel like a thorn in their back, and a chill suddenly rose in their hearts.
“This sword intent!”
Old man Qiao and the middle-aged man felt the sword intent emanating from the flying sword, and their eyes suddenly widened.
The sword intent condensed by Lu Qing made even them feel creepy.
This means that the sword intent has such terrible power that it can threaten their lives.
Just when Old Man Qiao and the other two were shocked, Lu Qing suddenly opened his eyes: "Old Man Qiao!"
Old man Qiao did not hesitate. He shook all his magic power violently, and the light emitted by the iron ruler magic weapon suddenly became brighter and its power increased greatly.
With just one foot of blow, a wind beast was blown to pieces.
And just when the wind beast was about to disperse, the flying sword in front of Lu Qing suddenly flew out.
With unimaginable speed, it stabbed towards a certain point inside the wind beast's body!
