Immortality begins with meditation puppets

Chapter 64 The first battle!

In Su Qing's view, if Tang Wanqing were too far away for him to reach, he would be unable to do anything about it.

Or perhaps the danger she encounters is beyond his control, in which case he is helpless and can only offer incense to her during festivals.

But right now, she's not far from the forward camp. Whether she can be rescued or not is another matter, but going to take a look at her is no problem.

Riding on the fire egg, they raced ahead, heading straight for the edge of the forward camp. Only then did they use their divine sense to control the hummingbird puppet, flying three miles away.

At a height of over two hundred feet, without flying more than three miles, the leading hummingbird puppet spotted Tang Wanqing and the others.

There, more than thirty female cultivators, each holding various magical artifacts, sat in a huddle, looking utterly wretched and disheveled.

Above their heads was a hazy yellow light shield, clearly some kind of defensive magical artifact, which bought them time to rest and recuperate.

All around them, a giant spider, several meters tall and covered in purple fuzz, and twenty or thirty spider-like monsters the size of calves, patiently circled them, as if eyeing delicious food.

In addition, there were two giant mantises, all green with triangular heads and forelegs resembling giant scythes, eyeing the scene menacingly.

"The Spirit Spider King, a first-tier ultimate demonic beast!"

"Scythe Mantis, a high-grade first-tier demonic beast!"

Su Qing frowned, immediately understanding the predicament of Tang Wanqing and the others.

Just as he was hesitating whether to break away from the protection of the forward camp and send the puppet to the rescue.

However, they saw that Tang Wanqing and the others seemed to have rested and were worried that there would be more monsters surrounding them. They took the initiative to disperse the yellow light protection and were willing to fight with all their might at this moment.

A flash of cold light appeared, and Tang Wanqing revealed a side of herself that Su Qing had never seen before.

Holding a black spear, he leaped into the air, his black robes and spear, his black hair flowing, exuding an indescribable heroic spirit.

The gun seemed to surge with vital energy, and the person felt as if a tremendous force of ten thousand pounds was bursting forth.

The spear thrust was powerful and unstoppable, rising from below!

While the Spider King's attention was drawn to this person and his spear, a torrent of magical power suddenly erupted from Tang Wanqing's body, and hundreds of swift wind slashes were instantly unleashed upon the surrounding Spider swarm.

"Now!"

Tang Wanqing gave a sharp shout, ordering the female cultivators to break through the opening she had created.

She herself could only entangle with the Spider King.

The spears rained down like rain, their force both swift and fierce. The Spider King raised its front legs to meet them head-on, but it couldn't gain the slightest advantage.

The ugly mouthparts shot out web-like spider silk, which Tang Wanqing always managed to dodge with her nimble movements.

"One is a marksmanship technique, and the other is a movement technique. I never expected Fellow Daoist Tang to be so well hidden. He is actually a master of both physical and magical techniques. No wonder he was able to hold out for so long at the Aishan defense line!"

Su Qing was amazed, thinking to herself that every rogue cultivator indeed had their own secrets.

At this moment, the situation on that battlefield underwent a new change.

Sun Yan led a group of female cultivators, using magical artifacts and Taoist techniques to clear the way. Initially, when the spirit spider swarm was in chaos, things went relatively smoothly.

But after all, they had fought their way through, and their condition was not as good as before.

Until a scythe-like mantis leaped over and slashed diagonally with its front legs, killing the two female cultivators instantly.

The situation deteriorated rapidly.

Sun Yan's eyes hardened, and she took out a rhombus-shaped throwing dart from her thigh. The power of a first-grade high-level body cultivator made the speed of these darts as fast as shooting stars. Every time a dart landed, an explosion would be heard.

However, the mantis, though large in size, was extremely agile and cunning.

In a leap, it dodged most of the darts, with only a few hitting it. However, these few did not cause fatal damage and instead aroused its ferocity.

In the blink of an eye, two more female cultivators who had used the Gale Technique to escape were cut down and fell to the ground. Sun Yan looked up at Tang Wanqing's situation and saw that she was being attacked from both sides by another scythe-wielding mantis and the Spirit Spider King. She was too busy taking care of herself to help them.

As the female cultivator whose strength was second only to Tang Wanqing, Sun Yan hardened her expression, held her sword in both hands, and darted out of the phantom with her long legs, stepping on the limbs of the scythe-like mantis and landing on its back.

Pfft!

With a forceful thrust of both swords, they pierced through its hard outer shell.

Then, he raised his left leg high, his blood and qi surged like thunder, and his powerful strength suddenly erupted, kicking the two longswords down more than halfway, leaving only the hilts outside.

With a hissing sound, two streams of green slime gushed out from the sickle mantis's wound.

Before Sun Yan could even feel joy, she saw the mantis turn half its body around, its terrifying compound eyes staring intently at her.

Then, my vision was filled with two beams of green light.

Sun Yan felt her body suddenly drop to the ground, followed by excruciating pain. She then realized that her legs had been severed at the root by the scythe-like mantis.

Even so, she, who was already determined to die, gripped the hilt of the sword tightly, trying to widen her wound!
They're doomed!

Sun Yan smiled bitterly, seeing the scythe-wielding mantis turn around and swing its blade again, she felt that this time there was truly no way to save her!
At this moment.

Two beams of red light suddenly appeared.

It fell straight down on that sickle-like foreleg.

Bang!
A shot struck the foreleg of the mantis, and the foreleg snapped off instantly.

A shot struck the mantis's head, causing its head to explode into dust!
A burnt smell wafted into my nostrils.

Amidst the haze of explosions, Sun Yan lay on the lifeless mantis.
Body.

Two armored war bears, one fat and one thin, entered the battlefield.

Before she could continue to observe the situation...

She then saw a green-skinned lizardman rushing straight at her. Before she could react, he grabbed her by the chest and, with her under the protection of several other lizard warriors, ran away at full speed.

"No, no! My legs! Bring my legs with you!"

Unable to resist, Sun Yan watched with reluctance as her legs receded further and further away until they were swallowed by a spirit spider on the battlefield. Only then did she close her eyes in despair.

Most of her combat skills are in her legs. Without her legs, she probably won't be able to become a combat cultivator in the future and will have to go back to her old profession.
No, it won't work out even without legs!

At this moment, Sun Yan's mind was filled with images of her impending unemployment.

As for the safety of her sisters, she wasn't too worried.

Because she had just seen that, in addition to the two armored war bears, there were also a dozen or so lizard warriors joining the battle.

Among them, five lizard warriors wielded battle swords, moving with unparalleled skill among the spider swarms, proving to be incredibly formidable!

"Who is so kind as to send so many puppets to save us?"

As Sun Yan was wondering, she saw a young man riding on a golden dog as the lizard warrior ran wildly.

The figure stood upright with a gentle demeanor, and was taller and stronger than I remembered.

But Sun Yan was still able to recognize his identity.

Is it Fellow Daoist Su?

As soon as the lizard warrior placed Sun Yan in front of Su Qing, before she could thank Su Qing, she saw Su Qing take out a series of spirit needles threaded with needles from his bosom.

"Fellow Daoist, please bear with it. My needle is very thin and won't hurt much."
