Everyone agreed that Ji Kongmeng's words made a lot of sense, and they began to try to slow down the pace of the battle and slowly maneuver around the Iron-Eating Beast.
Ye Wan and Luo Lianjiang took turns engaging it at close range.
Xi Louxue remotely interfered with the piano music.
Du Yu no longer focused on trapping the Iron-Eating Beast, but instead tried to distract it with vines.
The vines aren't very effective; they can only tickle a sensitive spot.
The iron-eating beast gradually became more and more irritable.
Zheng Nansheng roared, "Fu Xiao! Find an opportunity to electrify the vines!"
Fu Xiao hesitated for a second, then began to pick up any leftovers. Every time the Iron-Eating Beast couldn't resist pulling on the vines, he would apply an electric shock to them.
This attack, which only causes mild pain and itch, immediately becomes lethal.
It's unethical, but it works!
Luo Lianjiang also took the time to give Zheng Nansheng a thumbs up.
Zheng Nansheng ignored him and continued, "Du Yu! Focus your attack on its lower body! Its lower limbs are weak!"
Ji Kongmeng added fuel to the fire, saying, "Even weaker between the lower limbs!"
Everyone, including the iron-eating beast, was shocked!
Although it's true, it still feels incredibly embarrassing to have it said out loud!
Zheng Nansheng is treacherous, and Ji Kongmeng is even more despicable.
No wonder the two of them got along so well when they were at Yueyun Manor!
Du Yu was somewhat reluctant. Although it was about dealing with demonic beasts, his upbringing made it difficult for him to accept Ji Kongmeng's suggestion.
However, Zheng Nansheng's advice is still worth considering.
The vines continued their attack, focusing on the iron-eating beast's belly and lower limbs, and Fu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief!
Fortunately, Du Yu is a person with principles.
Otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to cooperate.
Ji Kongmeng shook his head, his tone becoming sarcastic: "Oh dear, as expected, if you're not capable enough, people won't listen to even useful suggestions. It's disheartening."
Fu Xiao couldn't help but yell, "Is it a matter of ability? Your suggestion is so vulgar! Who wants to listen to that!"
"Oh, right." Ji Kongmeng suddenly realized, "It really isn't a matter of strength, is it, Brother Zheng?"
Zheng Nansheng has just broken through, so his strength is indeed the weakest.
It's normal for Ji Kongmeng to tease him like that.
But at such a crucial moment, it seems a bit insensible.
Zheng Nansheng remained unperturbed. His spiritual power had recovered somewhat, and he had a new idea.
It just requires Ji Kongmeng's help to make it happen.
"Brother Ji, could you use that curse seal again?"
Ji Kongmeng, resting his chin on his hand, watched Ye Wan and the others fight the Iron-Eating Beast, and said with a bored expression:
"Yes, you can."
Zheng Nansheng said, "Then help me this once."
Ji Kongmeng turned to look at Zheng Nansheng and chuckled: "Why should I? You're not mine, my senior brother, anymore."
He emphasized the word "senior brother" deliberately, which made Zheng Nansheng choke for a moment.
What could he possibly offer to persuade Ji Kongmeng?
Teamwork?
joke!
Ji Kongmeng's ability to raise such questions shows that he doesn't respect the team at all.
His purpose in coming here this time was probably for Ye Wan.
“Miss Ye is also struggling. If we continue fighting, she may get injured.”
Ji Kongmeng glanced at the Iron-Eating Beast.
Ye Wan slowed down.
Facing a fifth-tier peak-stage demonic beast, even cultivators of the same level would not dare to claim victory easily without going all out.
Ji Kongmeng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
"Okay, but I want you to promise me that you will never make a move on my senior sister."
Zheng Nansheng was startled.
Countless images flashed through my mind.
On the rooftop, Ye Wan avoided him at all costs;
In the illusion, Ye Wan gripped the blade with both hands to save him, and her blood was almost drained by the red sword.
In a secluded courtyard of the Immortal Venerable's Mansion, Ye Wan gave him a pastry that was so sweet it was cloying.
Zheng Nansheng remained silent.
This is no big deal; it's insignificant compared to the safety of the team.
He is not a sentimental person and has always been able to control his emotions well.
What exactly made him unable to speak about it, even he himself didn't know.
A bitter smile flickered across Ji Kongmeng's lips:
"You're the smartest person, you should know how to choose, right?"
Choose whatever is best for you. What are you hesitating about?
Are they weighing which option is more useful?
"ah--"
The Iron-Eating Beast went completely berserk, its demonic power suddenly surging, sending everyone flying.
Ye Wan was closest and was hit squarely.
Luo Lianjiang quickly caught her and jumped out of the range of the Iron-Eating Beast's attack.
Ji Kongmeng panicked and disregarded everything else, unleashing his curse seal once more and roaring at Zheng Nansheng:
"What are you standing there for? Use whatever tricks you have up your sleeve! I don't need any promises from you!"
Zheng Nansheng activated the Great Golden Light Mantra, and this time the energy was even stronger than the last time.
The golden curse mark lifted up the black curse mark.
The two extremely contrasting curse seals collided violently as soon as they came together, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of Zheng Nansheng's mouth.
He gathered all his spiritual power and forcefully fused Ji Kongmeng's black curse mark with the Great Golden Light Mantra.
The moment they merged, the entire space trembled violently due to the new curse seal.
The iron-eating beast even forgot to attack!
It's him!
It's the power of that thing!
"Get out of the way!"
Zheng Nansheng shouted, and the fused curse seal flew straight towards the Iron-Eating Beast, instantly encircling its neck.
The Iron-Eating Beast struggled with all its might, using all four legs to try and break free from the curse seal's restraints, but it couldn't break free even a little bit!
Controlling such enormous energy made Zheng Nansheng feel the same threat as he had felt with Hong Jian.
