The fellow disciples breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the beast horde gradually shrink. When they came to their senses, they realized that it was Senior Sister Xie who had helped them and drawn away the beast tide. They all lowered their heads, their eyes filled with an unknown worry.
Xie Zhou, who was leading the magical beasts, had long since released his magical control. The entire situation had completely adapted to this direction, so Xie Zhou didn't pay attention to it and instead carefully hid in the surroundings.
Following the beast tide, Xie Zhou suddenly noticed a dark mass of people not far away. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that there were two groups of black people.
They encountered a beast tide, but it seemed like they had planned to deal with it all along, and they fought the monsters with ease.
Xie Zhou was also very curious about what method they had used.
Observing their techniques in secret, I discovered that they were using the secret magic technique from the Worry-Free Pavilion.
She was somewhat shocked. They knew the Worry-Free Pavilion very well, and the spiritual power they displayed surprised her. Based on this, Xie Zhou felt that this group of men in black might be related to the mysterious person.
Although mental strength has an advantage in combat, how could a group of monsters be so easily defeated given their thick hides and tough flesh?
Soon, during the fight, Xie Zhou suddenly realized that although these magical beasts had very strong physical bodies, their mental strength was relatively weak. As long as he applied stronger mental strength, he could easily defeat those magical beasts.
Seeing that the men in black had indeed quickly defeated the beast tide, and that the group seemed unaffected by the massive calamity and the beast tide's onslaught, they continued to advance at a normal pace, perhaps just as the system had predicted.
There's a rare treasure in the northern part of the Monster Mountain Range, and it seems these men in black are after it too.
Xie Zhou watched the procession slowly walk away, then quietly followed them.
But to everyone's astonishment, they discovered something that shocked them once again: before the beast horde even touched the men in black, it split into several streams and bypassed them.
"Why? That's amazing!"
Xie Zhou crouched low in the grass, his eyes fixed intently on the men in black, as if they were poisoned.
Completely baffled, Xie Zhou knew that these men in black were also using the same mental techniques of the Worry-Free Pavilion, and he would never mistake their gestures. So why did the magical beasts seem to be blocked by an invisible mental barrier?
They naturally bypassed the men in black, but Xie Zhou didn't notice the mental barrier at all. So how did they stop the beast tide from attacking them? She carefully observed the separated magical beasts and found that their eyes were all white, and she couldn't see their pupils, as if they were controlled by something.
At this moment, the system suddenly popped up and said, "Sometimes I say you're smart, very smart indeed, but sometimes when I ask you to find something, you just can't see it no matter what. Don't you know that your mental power controlled those beast tides, so those magical beasts didn't even get close to those men in black before they unconsciously bypassed them and went in other directions without harming them?"
After the system reminded him, Xie Zhou suddenly realized that the man in black could actually control magical beasts!
Just now, she was working so hard with the disciples of the Sword Sect and the Worry-Free Pavilion to kill those magical beasts, which was a complete waste of her strength. How come she didn't think of using her mental power to control magical beasts?
Just as she was watching intently, the black crystal core that Xie Zhou had obtained suddenly reacted.
A series of bright lights flashed in her arms and gradually flew out. Xie Zhou looked at the black crystal core that suddenly flew up in front of him, and quickly covered the thing with both hands, curling up his body even more, afraid of being discovered by the men in black.
But just as she was silently chanting, "You can't see me...you can't see me...", the man in black had already spotted the guy hiding in the bushes eavesdropping.
As if sensing something, the men in black in front immediately looked up and stared intently in that direction, their eyes burning with desire. It was as if they had caught a glimpse of a rare treasure, and they immediately discovered Xie Zhou's hiding place.
Xie Zhou could sense the intense gazes directed at her through the bushes, as if they wanted to show her the black crystal core that was stirring within her. She was retreating to another hiding place, but every time she moved, the bushes swayed.
So she tried to move as quietly as possible, minimizing her movements, and darted into a bush nearby with the black crystal core in her hand. However, the man in black already knew her location and launched an attack on the bush first.
"Splash..."
The fireball struck with lightning speed, hurtling towards the bushes. Wherever it went, the bushes, which were practically barren, were completely burned, and it flew straight toward Xie Zhou.
Xie Zhou could feel a surge of energy, and the unique smell of burnt grass lingered at her nose. At the critical moment, she turned her head and dodged the attack.
Feeling a bit shaken, he patted his chest, only then realizing that the black crystal core in his hand was a troublesome thing, and quickly threw it away.
She crouched down and hid in another place, while three men in black went off to chase Xie Zhou.
Xie Zhou hid in the bushes and discovered that men in black were following her, forcing her to flee.
We must get rid of these three men in black.
Xie Zhou turned around and threw down a talisman. With a "bang!", white mist appeared around them, and the men in black were temporarily disoriented. However, as if Xie Zhou had radar installed on him, the men in black quickly emerged from the white mist.
Continuing to follow Xie Zhou, he quickened his pace upon seeing this. He hadn't expected this group to be so persistent, like a leech. He had encountered them when he was rescuing the disciples, and now he had run into them again.
Trying to escape would only make his situation more dangerous. What else is in the Monster Mountain Range besides monsters? So Xie Zhou came up with a plan: to take these men in black back to the place where the beast tide was, let them fight the monsters, and then he would take the opportunity to escape.
Soon, Xie Zhou changed direction, stepped on the tree trunks, and flew towards the direction of the beast tide.
How could the man in black not know?
They still caught up, and Xie Zhou successfully led the three men in black to the beast tide behind them.
So they just stood there and waited to see what happened, not in a hurry to leave.
The men in black disdained Xie Zhou's trickery and confidently displayed their spiritual power, along with the spiritual secrets of the Worry-Free Pavilion. They prepared to control the rampaging demonic beasts.
"Roar! Roar!..."
After a series of actions, it was discovered that the monster's scarlet eyes remained unchanged, and a tiger-shaped monster quickly pounced on it.
It bit the man in black's arm, and the man let out a series of screams.
"Ahhh!..."
