Immortal Cultivation Families: The Rise of the Jinling Immortal Clan

Xia Yuhui: "Fifth Uncle, rest assured, the three of us will be able to return to the family safely today."

Xia Guangzheng remained silent and did not respond.

And so the three began their escape. However, Xia Yuhui knew that such actions would make it difficult to escape, and they would be caught up soon. Xia Guangzheng and Xia Yufeng's magical power was almost exhausted, and their speed was gradually slowing down. It was likely that they would be caught up soon.

Xia Yuhui, however, did not want to sit idly by and wait for death. He said to the two men, "Fifth Uncle, Yufeng, I will take action and do my best to injure or kill these four demonic beasts. After that, just hide behind me."

The two nodded, agreeing that this was the best course of action, since they couldn't outrun the five demon wolves.

After more than ten breaths, this time, Xia Yuhui stepped on a tree and used its strength to leap straight towards the five demon wolves.

As they drew near, Xia Yuhui unleashed three bolts of crimson lightning, striking directly at the three demonic wolves in front of him.

However, this attack greatly disappointed Xia Yuhui. Several demon wolves seemed to be prepared. As soon as Xia Yuhui turned his head, he immediately leaped away, avoiding the three crimson lightning bolts. However, he was still hit by some of the lightning, which made the demon wolves shudder and be directly paralyzed by the electric shock.

Xia Yuhui immediately seized the opportunity, unleashed the volcano, and struck the three demon wolves. Just as it was about to hit, the demon wolf behind suddenly appeared and deflected the volcano with a claw.

Two breaths later, the three demon wolves recovered, and then the five demon wolves instantly surrounded Xia Yuhui. Xia Yuhui knew that he could not sit and wait for death, so he immediately took out a black sword and removed several talismans from the sword.

The sword immediately emitted billowing black smoke, and then a pitch-black ghost head emerged. Upon seeing the demon wolves around it, the ghost head immediately panicked. Although it was powerful, the five demon wolves in front of it were definitely several times stronger than it.

After all, these five demonic wolves were all equivalent to demonic beasts at the late stage of Qi Refining, and the aura emitted by two of them had even surpassed that of Xia Guangzheng.

This demonstrates the immense strength of these five demonic wolves.

After surveying the battlefield, the first thought that came to the mind of this ghostly head was to escape.

However, at that very moment, a bright light suddenly shone from Xia Yuhui's hand, accompanied by crackling sounds.

This caused the ghost head's thoughts to freeze instantly. At this moment, it was extremely close to Xia Yuhui. If it chose to run away now, Xia Yuhui's attack would immediately strike it. Although its strength had recovered by more than half in the past few months, it was unwilling to endure another strike of crimson lightning. After all, for ghosts like them, lightning was their nemesis.

The other five demonic wolves were equally ferocious, but they were still somewhat less terrifying than the crimson lightning.

So the ghost head immediately chose to attack the wolf demon. The wolf demon was puzzled, wondering where this bone, which was emitting black energy all over its body, came from.

However, seeing that the mass of bones was attacking them, the wolf demon did not hold back and immediately launched a counterattack.

Xia Yuhui was not idle either. He took out the high-grade defensive magic weapon from his storage bag. However, most of his magic weapon was destroyed at this moment. Even the Thousand Gold Hammer was destroyed in the last battle.

The only things that are still useful now are the volcano artifact and this high-grade defensive artifact. Although there are only two, they are enough. After all, one for offense and one for defense is the most perfect combination. More than that would be detrimental.

Thus, Xia Yuhui engaged in a fierce battle with these wolf demons. Soon, Xia Yuhui began to retreat steadily. Although he had defensive magic artifacts protecting him, the wolf demons were extremely fast and numerous, so even the defensive magic artifacts could not completely protect his entire body.

So in a short while, some wounds gradually appeared on Xia Yuhui's body, including claw marks, bite marks, and even injuries from being swept by a tail. If he had not already mastered the Flowing Light Sword Technique to a minor level, he probably wouldn't have been able to last even a dozen rounds.

This made Xia Yuhui realize that this was not a good strategy. At this moment, he only had one last trump card left, which was the crimson lightning. However, the demon wolf was prepared and the crimson lightning was difficult to hit. Now Xia Yuhui could only try to deal with it.

A moment later, Xia Yuhui turned his gaze to the ghost head that was playing with a demon wolf.

Seeing its perfunctory actions, Xia Yuhui's face suddenly darkened. "Very well, since we can't control it, there's no point in keeping you around."

True to his word, Xia Yuhui immediately withdrew, leaping to the side of the ghost head, still holding a bolt of crimson lightning in his hand, and commanded the ghost head, "Quickly eliminate these demonic beasts around here!"

The ghost head was startled, then immediately shook its body, indicating that it was powerless to help.

Xia Yuhui smiled coldly, "Then there's no point in keeping you around."

As it was about to attack, the ghost head was terrified and hurriedly begged for mercy. Because of his pleas, he was even scratched hard by the demon wolf.

However, it paid no heed; the broken bones were restored to their original state in no time.

Xia Yuhui: "Since you don't want to die, then go all out. Let me tell you, if I perish here today, my first priority will be to blast you into ashes."

Ghosts are generally quite intelligent, and it immediately understood the meaning. At that moment, it realized that if it did not go all out, it would be blasted into ashes.

Thinking of this, it immediately exerted all its strength, and in an instant, clouds of black mist spewed out from its mouth, covering an area of ​​a hundred meters in a short time. The ghost head wanted to leave Xia Yuhui and enter the black mist, but Xia Yuhui quickly followed, not giving the ghost head any chance to escape.

Left with no other choice, the demon head released various kinds of black energy from the air to attack the five demon wolves.

However, the black mist had no effect on the five demon wolves; their speed remained unaffected, and their eyesight was as good as ever.

Even an ordinary cultivator, with their spiritual eyes activated, would find it difficult to see clearly what was happening within the black mist. However, the exceptionally gifted demon wolf could perceive everything.

This put Xia Yuhui in an increasingly difficult situation, but fortunately, with the full assistance of the ghost head, Xia Yuhui gradually stabilized his situation and even occasionally unleashed several streaks of crimson lightning to attack the five demon wolves. Now, two of the demon wolves have been severely injured by him.

However, Xia Yuhui and the Ghost Head were not faring much better. Several deep claw marks were left on Xia Yuhui's stomach. If his physical body had not been extremely strong, these marks would have cleaved him in two.

The black aura surrounding the ghost head had mostly dissipated, rendering it unable to launch any effective attacks.

Seeing that Xia Yuhui was about to collapse, the five demon wolves immediately unleashed their fury, attacking him together. Xia Yuhui could only activate his defensive magic weapon with all his might to defend himself, but the weapon was already riddled with holes and shattered from the inside after blocking the attack.

Seeing this, the five demon wolves became even more excited and charged forward again.

Xia Yuhui had no choice but to use the Flowing Light Sword Technique, fighting and retreating. Seeing the five demonic beasts so arrogant, Xia Yuhui immediately released ten bolts of lightning, all aimed at the two severely injured demonic wolves. Due to their serious injuries, the two demonic wolves were greatly slowed down, and at such close range, they were instantly struck by several bolts of lightning, collapsing to the ground, lifeless.

Xia Yuhui didn't hold back either, immediately absorbing the souls of the two demonic beasts into the Green Broken Lamp.
