Before Ning Wuji could finish speaking, the Iron-Eating Beast raised its front body without warning and quickly stood up straight.
Because the incident happened so suddenly, Ning Wuji was completely unprepared. Caught off guard, he slid off the broad, sturdy back of the Iron-Eating Beast and fell heavily to the ground.
To make matters worse, the back of his head struck the hard ground, instantly causing him to feel dizzy and disoriented, and he couldn't help but let out a painful howl: "Ouch!"
At this moment, the Iron-Eating Beast slowly turned around, lowered its head, and stared down at the disheveled Ning Wuji, its eyes flashing with disdain and mockery, seemingly provoking him: "Little trash, let me see just how much you're made of!"
Immediately afterwards, it turned around without hesitation and charged straight at the group of dark figures who were besieging Qin Feng.
The Iron-Eating Beast opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp, pointed teeth, and brandished its thick, powerful claws, like a majestic war god descending upon the world.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen dark figures had been torn apart by its sharp claws, its destructive power was astonishing.
Just as the Iron-Eating Beast was displaying its might, dozens of dark figures rushed toward Ning Wu like a tidal wave.
Ning Wuji only snapped out of his daze when these dark figures drew near.
He was terrified, his face changed drastically, and he no longer cared about the pain all over his body. He quickly rolled to his feet and ran as fast as he could in the distance.
"What on earth is going on?"
"Why did they all pounce on me as soon as the iron-eating beast left...?"
Ning Wuji ran for his life while cursing inwardly.
On the other side, Qin Feng stared wide-eyed at the astonishing combat power displayed by the iron-eating beast in front of him, his face full of astonishment.
"Wow! I never knew iron-eating beasts were this powerful?!"
Before this, Qin Feng had suspected that the Iron-Eating Beast was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. Now, after witnessing its power firsthand, he realized that his previous guess was completely correct.
Although the Iron-Eating Beast is only at the ninth level of Qi Refining at this moment, its true combat power cannot be measured by cultivation level alone.
You should know that this behemoth has the blood of a divine beast flowing through its veins, and its future is limitless. It may even evolve into a legendary divine beast in the future!
Even with such powerful assistance from the Iron-Eating Beast, Qin Feng dared not let his guard down or become complacent in the slightest.
He gripped the Five Elements Sword tightly, brandishing it repeatedly, and used all his skills to engage in a desperate battle with his enemy.
The number of those shadowy figures was staggering, and each of them was proficient in fire-based magical arts.
Although a single shadowy figure is not particularly strong, their large numbers and cunning nature make them a formidable force to be eliminated in one fell swoop.
At this moment, Ning Wuji's situation was also not optimistic. He had not run far before he was successfully intercepted by dozens of dark figures.
These dark figures unleashed bizarre and alluring red flame attacks, shooting straight towards Ning Wuji like a dense swarm of rockets.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ning Wuji felt a chill run down his spine, his scalp tingling.
At this moment, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and use all his strength to desperately dodge.
Unfortunately, he has no cultivation now and is not much different from an ordinary person.
Despite his agility and desperate attempts to dodge, he was ultimately unable to completely avoid the swarms of rockets flying at him like locusts.
In an instant, his clothes were ignited by the raging flames, and he instantly turned into a burning fireball.
"Ahhhhhh..."
Ning Wuji let out a series of extremely shrill screams, like a pig being slaughtered, before falling heavily to the ground, rolling and struggling incessantly.
However, the dozens of dark figures showed no sign of stopping and continued to launch rockets at him relentlessly.
In an instant, rockets rained down on Ning Wuji's body.
In the blink of an eye, Ning Wuji was surrounded by a raging sea of fire.
Seeing Ning Wuji's predicament, Qin Feng was extremely anxious and wished he could fly over to rescue him immediately.
Unfortunately, reality didn't allow him to do so. The dark figures surrounding him had completely blocked his path, making it impossible for him to break through the encirclement and carve out a way to survive in a short time—a pipe dream indeed.
Although the Iron-Eating Beast is exceptionally brave and has formidable combat power, it is currently also in a predicament and cannot escape in a short time.
Ning Wuji's condition was already precarious, and he clearly could not hold on for long.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it won't be long before he is burned to ashes.
At this critical moment, a beautiful and ethereal figure suddenly rushed from afar like lightning.
In the blink of an eye, that beautiful figure rushed into the raging sea of fire where Ning Wuji was.
She held a mysterious purple feather fan in her hand, and with a gentle wave, a brilliant purple light shone, dazzling and mesmerizing.
Immediately afterwards, a majestic purple water dragon appeared out of thin air, roaring as it soared into the sky, and then swooped down with the force of thunder.
In an instant, the enormous body of the purple water dragon suddenly exploded, turning into countless fine blue raindrops that poured down like a torrential downpour.
In the blink of an eye, the raging flames burning Ning Wuji's body and the raging fire around him were completely extinguished by the sudden blue rainstorm.
At the same time, the blue rain suddenly vanished without a trace, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusion.
Although Ning Wuji narrowly escaped death, he was covered in wounds and his skin was charred black, resembling a giant piece of charcoal.
He was on the verge of death, barely breathing, and seemed about to take his last breath at any moment.
At this moment, Qianli's figure slowly walked up to Ning Wuji and looked down at him.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, revealing a hint of worry. "As expected of a good-for-nothing, to be injured into such a wretched state by mere evil spirits!"
The newcomer was none other than Chu Xingyao, the female immortal emperor who had slept with Ning Wuji.
Despite saying this, Chu Xingyao still took out a flawless white jade bottle from her pocket without hesitation, and gently unscrewed the cap to pour out a crystal-clear white pill.
Then, she carefully bent down and placed the precious white pill into Ning Wuji's slightly open mouth.
After confirming that Ning Wuji had taken the pill, Chu Xingyao slowly straightened up, then suddenly turned around, her gaze fixed intently on the direction where Qin Feng and the Iron-Eating Beast were. "Fellow Daoist Qin, I'm here to help you!"
Before she could finish speaking, Chu Xingyao shot out like an arrow, her speed as fast as a dazzling bolt of lightning streaking across the sky.
At the same time, she held the mysterious purple feather fan tightly in her hand, continuously releasing purple water dragons that were not very large.
These purple water dragons, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, charged straight at the densely packed black shadows.
