Chapter 53: The Savior Xiangyu Dies
Liu Xia broke through for a while before he met up with Long Qi, but there were so many monsters that the gap he had finally managed to break through was blocked again in an instant.
"It's over, it's over. Isn't this a case of catching a turtle in a jar?" Banxia looked at the monsters surrounding her, feeling so sad that she sat down on the ground all of a sudden.
Finally, one of those monsters couldn't bear it any longer. A monster with a human face and an insect body screamed, twisted its body, and rushed forward with its bloody mouth wide open.
Although this monster was chopped in half by Long Qi's sword, the sight of someone attacking boosted the morale of the other monsters, and they all roared and rushed towards the crowd.
This fight put Long Qi in a tough battle, and he was hit by the monster in a short while. Although it was only a flesh wound, the erosion of the miasma made it impossible for him to ignore the pain.
Cheng Yu's situation was not good either. His sword was unopened and he also had to take care of Xin Yi. Although his swordsmanship was excellent, he was ultimately no match for the monsters.
Liu Xia's swordsmanship has become more and more powerful since he had practiced swordsmanship with Cheng Yu before. A set of weeping willow swordsmanship, combined with the sword moves taught by the sect, actually prevented monsters from getting close to him.
But the monsters kept charging towards them, and no mortal body could cope with such a situation. They resisted for about half an incense stick of time before being defeated and being gathered together by the monsters, just like prey surrounded by lions.
Banxia was extremely desperate, but suddenly remembered that Liu Xia seemed to have two talismans on him, so she hurriedly called out to him - the summoning talisman might be able to save their lives.
But there were so many monsters that her voice, a woman's, was drowned out by the sound of fighting and did not attract Liu Xia's attention.
Zhao Wuyang, who was lying on the side, heard everything clearly. He tugged at Banxia's sleeve and told her that he still had two talismans on him.
Upon hearing this, Banxia hurriedly searched Zhao Wuyang's body, but Zhao Wuyang blushed because of her rash actions.
After she found Zhao Wuyang's two talismans, she was in trouble - generally speaking, the imperial talismans can exert their power as long as they are thrown out or stuck on something, but these two are not imperial talismans, so how can they be used?
Just when Banxia was at a loss, she saw two talismans emitting a fluorescent light, which frightened her so much that she quickly threw the two talismans away.
As soon as the two yellow talismans fell to the ground, two magic circles were immediately set up on the ground. After a while, two people were seen slowly emerging from the circle.
It turned out to be Master Fuyin and Lingxiang!
As soon as the two appeared, they began to cast spells.
I saw Master Fuyin twisting his Tiangang Jue, and several lightning bolts fell from the sky, splitting the monsters around everyone. Then he used his fingers as swords, sweeping the monsters around him. His posture was extraordinarily graceful, like a banished immortal.
Lingxiang also made hand gestures and used a wave of sea tide to trap the monster that intended to attack Cheng Qi and Xinyi in a water prison.
As soon as the magic was cast, he quickly ordered Cheng Qi to move Xinyi to his side, and then he gathered his energy and roared, which immediately shocked the monster into standing still.
This roar also drew the attention of all the monsters over here. A monster with sickle-like arms took advantage of Lingxiang casting a spell and swung its two sickles at her.
Everyone was concentrating on dealing with the monster in front of them and didn't pay attention to this side. When Zhao Wuyang discovered it, the monster was about to swing its sickle arm.
He stretched out his hand and shouted "Be careful", but Lingxiang only had time to turn around before the sickle arm chopped down.
In a flash, flesh and blood flew everywhere, but Lingxiang was not hurt at all - Long Qi was holding him and rolling to the side.
Just when Long Qi heard Zhao Wuyang's cry, he saw Lingxiang was about to be hit. He became anxious and rushed to her to block the knife with strength from nowhere.
The knife hit his right arm directly. If he hadn't reacted in time and stepped back a little, his arm would have been lost.
After he saved Lingxiang, he eventually ran out of strength and passed out.
Seeing that Long Qi was hit in order to save him, Lingxiang felt a little panicked and struggled to get up to check his injuries. The wound was very deep, but fortunately, it did not hurt his bones. It was just that the miasma attached to his skin and flesh made a "sizzling" sound, as if it was being roasted by an iron.
Seeing Long Qi like this, Liu Xia hurried forward to support him, but was stopped by Lingxiang.
She ordered everyone to gather together, and asked Liu Xia for the remaining two talismans. She took out the yellow talisman with the word "Ding" on it, and muttered something.
After a flurry of hand gestures, Lingxiang pierced the talisman with a sword and inserted it into the ground.
At this moment, a magic circle suddenly opened up around everyone, and the monsters that wanted to attack were blocked outside the circle and could not get in no matter what.
This set of movements was so smooth and fluid that Banxia was stunned. When she came to her senses, she looked at Lingxiang with admiration.
"What kind of talisman is Peak Master using? Why have I never seen it mentioned in the book 'Talisman Theory'?"
After hearing this, Liu Xia felt cold sweat on his forehead - it was already this time, and this person still had the leisure to ask about this matter, without any sign of the panic he had just shown.
Lingxiang was surprised when Banxia asked this question - this girl had actually read "Talisman Theory"? But in an instant, her expression returned to normal and she answered:
"The book 'Talisman Theory' only records talismans such as the imperial decree to the Three Pure Ones, but this method is the Tiangang Talisman Method, which is not included in that list."
After hearing this, Banxia immediately understood that "The Theory of Talismans" was just an introductory technique of the art of talismans, and the sect had other more profound talisman techniques.
At this moment, Master Fuyin was careless and was pierced by the monster.
Seeing this scene, everyone took a deep breath. Just when they thought that Master Fuyin was seriously injured, they saw that Lingxiang did not seem to be anxious at all.
"It's a substitute technique after all. That paper talisman doesn't even have 30% of my brother's cultivation."
Just as Lingxiang was speaking, the monsters attacked Master Fuyin one after another, but he seemed nothing happened and actually turned around and smiled at Lingxiang.
"I'm afraid your skills are not strong enough, and the talisman you chanted cannot bear my cultivation." As he spoke, it seemed to burn, but in an instant it turned into ashes and floated away.
When Lingxiang heard him say this, she couldn't help but complain in her heart: How disrespectful of me to poke my sore spot in front of so many people. I must pay a proper visit to Qiuyunfeng when I get back.
But even though Lingxiang seemed to be calm, he didn't dare to relax in his heart.
"I'm afraid the replacement talisman will soon expire. You should recuperate in the formation first and don't go out. I think you can hold out until the head brother and the others arrive." Then he said to Banxia, "I see that you are knowledgeable in talisman techniques. Liu Xia should have a summoning talisman on him. If you are defeated in this formation, you can stick that talisman on your body to attract the spirit. I think you should be able to survive this disaster."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lingxiang was suddenly engulfed in flames and turned into ashes in an instant.
This scene was seen by Long Qi who had just woken up. He was stunned and felt the blood surging in his abdomen. He vomited blood immediately.
Spiritual fragrance...
Lingxiang...
She's dead!
