Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 109: The Moment of Death (Part )
"You take charge here, I'll go!"

A figure shot out from somewhere, and an old voice gave steady instructions.

Jian Chun raised his eyes, slightly startled, "Senior Brother?"

……

In the Yunmeng Marsh, several elders who had reached the Nascent Soul stage used their magical powers to push their true energy to almost the limit.

The speed of the Nascent Soul stage cultivators is more than ten times faster than that of the Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, but how could a group of disciples reach the distance that took them half a day to walk in an instant?

"It'll take half a cup of tea. I hope they can hold on!"

"So what if they can hold on? Do you really think that the arrival of a few of us old men will be of any use? Do you know why we chose that vast swamp as the core test site?"

The location of the Mirage Sea is where the dragon passed through the tribulation that year.

The thundercloud above my head still retains the power of the thunder from that year.

The cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages can still freely apply what they have learned there, but if the cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage display their power in that area, it is likely that thunder will fall from the sky again.

Not to mention the Nascent Soul stage, even if a cultivator in the Golden Core stage gets serious about it, the thunder from the sky will be merciless.

It won’t be the kind of small fights that punished disciples before. The power of heavenly thunder cannot be challenged.

This was also one of the reasons why the planners chose this place as the core test point for the team battle. With the deterrence of heavenly thunder, these disciples participating in the team battle would not be disturbed by any external factors.

Even if you meet him, his level will not exceed the Jindan stage.

For the disciples of the four sects who are at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage, they should be able to protect themselves even if they encounter this enemy.

But no one thought that the choice made at that time would become a constraint today.

Even if they arrived, they would not be able to clear out the entire Yunmeng Marsh that was invaded by evil spirits.

"We can just slowly clear out the evil spirits. At worst, we can just guard the perimeter of the swamp and prevent those monsters from breaking out."

"That's a nice thing to say! How can we defend the vast Yunmeng Marsh with just a few of us? If even a single one escapes, it will be a huge disaster for the human world."

"What's the point of saying all this now?! The most urgent task is to get the disciples from all the sects out! Even if we can't use our thundering methods to slay the demons, getting them out won't be a problem. We can discuss the rest from the beginning."

"That's true. Oh! I just hope they can hold on until we get there, otherwise..."

Elder Bai of the Xianyi Sect said nothing, but just kept releasing his true energy and hurried on his way.

"Shuang'er... at this critical moment, you must not act rashly!"

……

"We can't cross this lake!" Li Qingyu gritted his teeth, his expression grim. "They are not afraid of the lake water, but we are not."

She tried it just now, but even with the magic weapon to protect herself, she couldn't withstand the corrosion of the lake water for long.

The energy of the earth veins was blocked by the lake water, and her magic weapon would become ineffective instantly if it fell into the water.

She couldn't clear a path for everyone from the lake anymore.

It would be difficult to cross the lake by the same means we came here.

This time is different from the past. There are more magic insects in the sky and more blood crocodiles in the lake.

The monster has a nimble body and can leap several feet high from the lake.

Not to mention that they are now infused with demonic energy, and they can do anything in their mutated state.

What was previously the team’s biggest test has now once again become a roadblock holding everyone back.

The lake is full of corrosion and thunderclouds are rolling in the sky.

There are also countless blood crocodiles in the lake, staring intently.

If you fly too high, you will be struck by lightning; if you fly too low, you will not be able to escape the attack of the blood crocodile.

Not to mention the vast swarms of flying insects approaching from afar, and all sorts of unknown birds and beasts, disturbed by the demonic energy, all pounced on the four sect disciples who were the only ones in this world to not succumb to the demonic energy. Magic and flying swords flew together.

The five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth weave a magnificent defense line in the air.

"Hold on a little longer! The elders must have already heard the news and are on their way." Hu Feifei always stood in front of everyone, trying her best to kick every blood crocodile that broke through the layers of magic and rushed in back into the lake.

However, these blood crocodiles were originally thick-skinned and tough. After being kicked into the lake, they shook their heads and attacked violently again.

"This won't work! We can't be trapped here forever!"

"There are more and more monsters. Sooner or later, we will be overwhelmed!"

"It's useless even if the elders come!" Yun Feiyang looked up at the sky. The dark thunderclouds exuded a breath of destruction.

His cultivation level is not only the highest among the disciples of Zhengyang Sect, but also the highest among all the disciples of the four sects present.

Being only one step away from the Golden Elixir, he knew better than anyone the horror of the thundercloud above his head.

Not to mention that he is a cultivator with wood spiritual roots, and is quite familiar with the abnormal thunder attributes of the wood element.

The thunderclouds contain a destructive aura, but they have been dormant all the time.

Once the power of the elders is aroused, the entire world will probably become a wasteland.

"We must break through!"

"It's not too late to leave now, otherwise you won't be able to leave!"

Seeing a group of black flying beasts about to attack from afar, Bai Lingshuang finally gritted her teeth and took out a small spindle-shaped golden bowl from somewhere and held it in her palm.

"I have a fifth-grade magical weapon that can help us escape."

This is the core life-saving magic weapon given to her by her master. If she uses it at a critical moment, even a Jindan stage cultivator will find it difficult to stop her.

"But……"

"But what but?" Gongshu Ye of Pingdingzong was irritable and his emotions were on the verge of getting out of control.

What I hate most is the time when I can only retreat and defend.

He transformed himself with puppetry, so once he got into a battle, in order to exert his maximum strength, he had to put himself into a state called "puppet mind".

In that state, his reactions and perception are sharper, but correspondingly he will become a beast that can only pursue endlessly.

In this situation, if you become a beast that only knows how to chase, you will be close to death.

But he had to fight, so his reason gradually tilted towards the abyss of loss of control.

Bai Lingshuang said hurriedly, "If this golden bowl only protects me, it can certainly be activated instantly. But if it wants to carry all the fellow Taoists present, it will take at least thirty breaths."

"Why don't you start it quickly?" Sun Qinghan said impatiently as he saw the dark flock of flying beasts getting closer and closer. "It will be too late if you delay any longer."

Bai Lingshuang's face turned pale, and she was embarrassed. "When the loading begins, fellow Daoists are not allowed to interact with the outside world in any way, otherwise it will be difficult to be included. This means that for these thirty breaths... we are defenseless."

...Which means that someone needs to protect the law.

who?

Who will stay to protect the Dharma?
When Jin Dou escapes and everyone leaves this shore, what will happen to those who stay behind to protect the law?
Is he going to face all these demons alone?
Those who carry firewood for the public should not be allowed to freeze to death in frost or snow.

This is also the core reason why Bai Lingshuang was unwilling to take out this magic weapon until the last moment.

She is mild-mannered and hesitant in her actions.

I would rather see everyone overcome difficulties together than abandon anyone.

If the situation had not been extremely dangerous, she would never have used this magical weapon until her death.

As soon as these words came out, the disciples fell silent...
