Maybe I shouldn't die.

The monks in that direction had just left, and that happened to be the weak point in the encirclement.

It seemed that the monster was about to escape successfully.

"boom"

A talisman bullet landed precisely on the path ahead as it planned to escape, blocking its movement for a moment.

It was just a moment of obstruction, and the remaining monks completed the encirclement again.

The monster's plan to escape failed.

Its angry eyes subconsciously looked in the direction where the shell came from.

It was soon discovered that the monk controlling the small artillery position had been replaced.

He is no longer the cultivator who was not affected by its evil spirit even though his cultivation level was not high.

At that moment, a hint of cunning flashed across its human-like face.

But it quickly disappeared.

But the monks on the battlefield did not notice this. After they freed up their men to deal with the group of monsters, it became difficult to intercept this high-level monster.

They needed to concentrate fully to prevent the monsters from finding an opportunity to escape.

He also ignored the instantaneous change in the monster's expression.

As for the fact that the person controlling the small turret had changed, they didn't care.

As long as there is someone to support us, it doesn’t matter whether the person is replaced or not.

It was this kind of thinking that almost led to their annihilation.

Now let’s talk about the half-demon leader.

Naturally, he also noticed the gaze of the high-level monster and looked back without hesitation.

The moment he came into contact with the monster's evil gaze, he felt dizzy, as if something had entered his sea of ​​consciousness through this eye contact.

Even though this feeling only lasted for a moment, he still didn't dare let his guard down.

After the monster turned its gaze back, it carefully checked itself.

Particular emphasis was placed on examining the sea of ​​consciousness.

But except for the small part in his sea of ​​consciousness that the medical practitioner had told him about, which was infected by the evil energy from outside the domain, there was nothing abnormal.

Since nothing abnormal was found during the examination, the first thing he thought of was to ask the medical practitioner to check him again.

But then he quickly remembered that the medical practitioner and Han Qingshu were in charge of treating those foundation-building monks.

Because of the illusion array blocking him, he had no idea what the situation was inside.

But seeing as they haven't come out yet, it could be that the treatment is still having some effect.

He didn't know whether to disturb the other person or not.

But this hesitation only lasted for a moment, and he gave up the idea of ​​letting the other party examine him. Instead, he used a secret method to seal the contaminated part of his sea of ​​consciousness.

Then he turned his attention back to the battlefield, and after finding that there would be no changes on the monster side for a while, he began to turn his guns to help deal with the group of low- and mid-level monsters that came to support.

With the help of his occasional thunder cannon, the group of monsters that came to support were quickly dealt with.

As per custom, the monks began to burn the bodies of these monsters.

It was at this moment that something unexpected happened again.

Before they successfully burned them, they discovered that the corpses showed signs of swelling.

In just a moment, the words that the half-demon leader had said before flashed through their minds.

This high-level monster will control the corpses of mid- and low-level monsters to self-destruct.

So they chose to retreat without hesitation.

However, the power range of dozens of monster corpses exploding at the same time was too great. Even if they retreated in time, they still could not avoid being harmed by the shock wave.

At the moment of the explosion, they were all knocked flying.

This sudden change made the monks who were still struggling with the monsters confused, and they couldn't help but slow down their movements for a moment.

It only took a short moment for the monster to seize the opportunity.

He once again chose to withstand the damage from the puppet's greatsword, then turned around and ran out of the encirclement.

At this time, the half-demon leader standing behind the small turret had red eyes and lost his mind.

Not only did he not choose to fire the talisman cannon in time to intercept the monster, but he aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the group of Jindan monks with somewhat stiff and slow movements.

Then, a huge thunder cannon was fired towards them.

Seeing that the talisman cannon was about to fall, the puppet that was originally planning to intercept the high-level monster suddenly flashed and appeared in mid-air.

He swung the greatsword in his hand and chopped towards the talisman bullet that was still there.

"boom"

The talisman bullet exploded in the air the moment it came into contact with the greatsword.

The puppet was intact and turned around to continue chasing in the direction the monster left.

But the delay was only for a moment, and the high-level monster had already activated its talent to tear open the space, stepped into the space crack and disappeared.

Although the unstable space cracks caused a lot of damage to the monsters.

But the puppet was not good at space magic and could only watch the monster leave.

As for the other Jindan cultivators who arrived a little later.

They are not even in the Nascent Soul stage, let alone the possibility of following into the space crack.

All they could do was watch the monster disappear into the crack in space, and finally even the crack in space was slowly smoothed out by the power of the world.

The monster escaped just like that.

Everyone felt a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Especially those monks who were seriously injured in the explosion.

At the same time, a thought flashed through their minds.

If it weren't for the talisman cannon coming towards them...

But this thought did not last long.

"what"

A shrill scream was heard from the battlefield.

Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction where the scream came from.

It turned out to be the half-demon leader. He was the one who made the scream. At this time, blood was flowing from all seven orifices and he was rolling on the ground.

Seeing this, everyone's eyes shone, and they surrounded him without hesitation.

Han Qingshu and the medical practitioner in the illusion array also noticed the changes outside.

The moment she discovered that the half-demon leader was abnormal, she wanted to break out of the formation.

But the doctor stopped her.

"That's too late."

I can only say that monsters really know how to choose time.

It only took a moment from controlling the half-demon leader to launching the talisman bullet, leaving no time to stop it.

Even so, Han Qingshu and the medical practitioner chose to leave the illusion array as soon as the incident occurred.

At this time, through her continuous use of purification techniques, most of the demonic energy in the sea of ​​consciousness of these fellow Taoists had been cleared away.

Some people have even begun to show signs of waking up.

As for the remaining demonic energy deep in the sea of ​​consciousness, it cannot be purified in a short time.

But their lives are no longer in danger.

This is enough. The rest will have to wait until we get to Xuanwu City and find a more advanced medical practitioner to solve the problem.

As soon as the medical practitioner left the illusion array, he took out his magic weapon and tied up the half-demon leader who was still rolling on the ground.

Only when he had no chance to resist did he slowly approach him and try to check on his condition.

As for Han Qingshu, she just stood on the edge of the illusion array.

This is the safest position. Even if something unexpected happens, she can retreat back to the illusion array in the first time.
