Chapter 387: Chapter 385: Let me count how many times you’ve showed off?_l

‘■Brother Lu, I’m truly sorry. It was you who alerted us to the demon beast’s attack.”

Feng Yu said somewhat guiltily. He prided himself on his extensive battle experience, but he hadn’t expected that Lu Xuan would be the first to detect the ambush by the demon beast.

“No problem, I just ask that everyone work together to kill the demon beast.”

Lu Xuan spoke urgently in a low voice.

“Brother Lu, you usually cultivate spiritual plants within the sect and have little experience battling with demon beasts. You should stay inside the spiritual energy shield and choose when to strike freely.”

Feng Yu instructed, his expression suddenly becoming solemn.

“Here they come!”

Before he even finished speaking, the ground immediately split open, tossing up countless pieces of dirt. Many demon beasts of different shapes shot out violently from the ground.

For a moment, the roars of the demon beasts echoed throughout the entire

camp.

There was a thunderous “bang”.

Like a small mountain, an azure black giant elephant trampled on the ground and rushed towards the bright blue spiritual energy shield above the heads of Lu Xuan and the others. This was happening at an alarmingly fast pace that belied its massive size.

Under the heavy attack of the giant elephant, the spiritual energy shield was on the verge of collapse, trembling continuously, as if ready to break at any moment.

“I’ll handle this giant elephant beast.”

Zhang Rui Ping controlled a golden flying sword, appearing instantly near the giant elephant.

A hefty dark yellow spiritual light appeared on his body. From the crack in the ground, a huge earthen dragon composed of soil and stones suddenly shot out, wrapping around the azure black giant elephant. In the air, a dark-yellow conical sting several feet long quickly formed and viciously aimed at the elephant’s head.

Entangled by the earthen dragon, the giant elephant was unable to move. Seeing the conical sting about to fall on its body, it roared in anger. Its body rapidly inflated, thus breaking free from the earth dragon’s entanglement. Knowing that escape was impossible, a dark spiritual light surged and formed layers of spiritual energy shields on its head.

The force of the deep-yellow cone sting was unstoppable, it easily pierced the dark spiritual light and fiercely stabbed into the giant elephant’s head.

“Success!”

Zhang Rui Ping saw the cone sting penetrate the elephant’s body completely, felt relieved, and was about to deal with the other invading demon beasts when he suddenly sensed an unusual movement below.

The wounded giant elephant below seemed unaffected, continuing to charge at Feng Yu’s spiritual energy shield with a fierce attitude.

“How could this happen?”

Zhang Rui Ping puzzled, the giant elephant beast was seriously injured. Even if it was lucky enough to survive, that at least would have significantly affected its movement.

But this beast’s behavior suggested that it was not injured at all. Other Sky Sword Sect cultivators who had seriously injured or even killed demon beasts had the same feeling.

Thunderous attacks left many of the demon beasts critically injured and hanging on to their lives by a thread. But they still fearlessly and constantly launched suicidal attacks on the Sky Sword Sect cultivators.

“This won’t do. Although the demon beasts are not powerful, their numbers are too great, and they’re fearless. This will not work in our favor over time,” Feng Yu quickly decided.

Without hesitation, he took out a charm from his storage bag. The spiritual power was instantly ignited, the charm shot up into the sky, releasing a grand and magnificent firework.

“Brothers and sisters, I have sent a message to our comrades on the frontline for help. Please hold on a bit longer. Help from the others won’t be long in coming.”

Feng Yu shouted. The charm he initiated was a unique symbol of the Sky Sword Sect. Fellow cultivators could sense it even hundreds of miles away.

“Brother Feng, these demon beasts seem to have some connection with the strange spiritual plants I’ve been studying recently.

“Looking at their abnormal behaviour, they are likely parasitized by that kind of spiritual plant. After consuming all the flesh and blood essence, their minds are completely taken over by the mutant spiritual plants, turning them into these puppet demon beasts.”

Lu Xuan suddenly spoke. He had already informed Fire Scale Child of his research results. The fellow sect members in the camp would soon find out, so there was no need to hold back given the current situation.

“Does such a spiritual plant exist, Brother Lu? Do you have a way to deal with it?”

While controlling a bright blue blade, Feng Yu inquired to Lu Xuan. “We can try attacking these demon beasts with sonic waves. It might work.” Lu Xuan conveyed this to a few members of the Sky Sword Sect. Immediately, an inner sect disciple took out a white jade flute from his storage bag. The moment he started playing, ethereal flute sounds filled the air, and layers of spiritual energy ripples swept over the demon beasts.

The sound of the flute became increasingly resonant, and countless nearly transparent crescent moon-shaped spiritual energies shot out with a piercing whistle.

In a short span, the movement of more than ten demon beasts visibly slowed down due to the sonic attack from the white jade flute.

“It really works!”

Suppressing the elation in their hearts, Feng Yu and the others seized this fleeting opportunity. They employed various magic artifacts, charms, and formula methods. Immediately, they were able to deal a fatal blow to all the demon beasts.

However, soon after that, the surrounding demon beasts gradually regained their senses and continued to launch fearless attacks on the Sky Sword Sect cultivators.

“I wonder if it’s because they’ve completely fused with the bodies of the demon beasts that the sonic attacks, though they still have a huge effect on the mutated Camp Tassel within, seem to be less effective.” Lu Xuan calmly surveyed his surroundings, comparing the current state of the mutated Camp Tassel with those from his experiments.

He recalled a piece of information that once floated in his mind: before the parasitism, the spiritual plants are extremely sensitive to all kinds of sonic attacks…

“However, although it cannot pose a lethal threat as it did before the parasitic phase, it does provide some effect. It’s better than nothing.” He held the Wind-Thunder Sword in his hand, its body surrounded by dark winds with occasional flashes of lightning inside. As it descended onto the demon beasts, storms and thunder roared, tearing their bodies asunder. The sword strikes landed heavily on the wounds, charring the surrounding area. This Wind-Thunder Sword was a four-level magical tool. In addition, he had harvested the “Wind Thunder Sword Scripture,” an exquisite sword technique, from the light cluster of Wind and Thunder Sword Grass. The two complemented each other; combined with the multitude of Wind and Thunder Sword Grass he had cultivated, his sword techniques became increasingly refined and adept. It was his strongest offensive measure at present. Transforming into a streak of faint light, he swiftly darted around the battlefield. Once his keen spiritual sense detected a fellow sect member weakening or being besieged by numerous demon beasts, he would instantly appear nearby to help break the siege.

“Brother Lu, I never knew that you possess such a remarkable talent in the Sword Dao.”

Feng Yu, busy dealing with several demon beasts, couldn’t help but remark as he watched Lu Xuan easily slash a Red Giant Scorpion into pieces with his sword.

“Brother Feng, I pursued swordsmanship out of necessity and after years of hard training, I was finally able to reach my current level.”

“But I had no choice, after all, having been chosen by the Sword Hall, if I didn’t achieve a certain level of swordsmanship, I wouldn’t be able to cultivate the

Sword Grass.”

Lu Xuan said modestly.

Upon hearing these words, Feng Yu almost tripped in shock and narrowly avoided injury from the giant comb-like forelimb of a Mantis Demon Beast.

He cast a resentful look at Lu Xuan.

How many times is he going to keep showing off?

-Brother Lu, you’re too modest. I didn’t expect you to be a Sword Hall disciple.” To a disciple of the Sky Sword Sect, Sword Hall, which provides countless naturally strong sword implements for the Sect, is considered one of the most powerful and mysterious places in the Sect. Feng Yu didn’t expect that Lu Xuan was one of the disciples there..
