Chapter 158: The Attack (First Update)
"The Qian family's foundation-building cultivators don't take action because they are afraid of being consumed and then surrounded and killed?" Mo Hua asked.
"Yes, but not entirely." Elder Yu said, "On the one hand, the Qian family's foundation-building cultivators are indeed afraid of being consumed. At that time, as long as I take action to hold him back, he can't escape and will inevitably be killed."
"So in this kind of melee, the foundation-building cultivators usually check and balance each other and don't take action easily. Once they take action, they either make a final decision to decide the outcome, or they have other important purposes that are enough to influence the situation."
"On the other hand, the Qian family has more than one foundation-building cultivator..." Elder Yu chuckled.
Mo Hua asked in confusion: "Isn't this an advantage for the Qian family?"
Elder Yu did not answer directly, but said:
"One monk has water to drink, two carry water to drink, and three monks have no water to drink."
"Oh." Mo Hua understood, "They all want others to take risks and work hard, and then they will benefit."
Elder Yu nodded approvingly.
"Is the Qian family so scheming?"
"Even brothers can settle accounts openly, not to mention that although they are a family, they have too many bloodline branches and their interests are intertwined. When they start scheming, there may not be any real family affection."
Mo Hua nodded.
No wonder Elder Yu always scolded the Qian family as a bunch of ungrateful wolves.
This is how they treat the cultivators of their own family, let alone other cultivators.
"What if all the foundation-building cultivators of the Qian family come together?" Mo Hua asked.
"I hope they come together." Elder Yu raised his eyebrows, "If they come together, the family and property will be unattended. If their enemies find out, they will rob all their property and kill all their direct descendants. That would be fun."
Elder Yu looked quite gloating.
Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, "Does this happen?"
"How can it not happen? You are still young. You will know when you live for a few hundred years. There are things in this world that you can't think of, but no one can't do it."
Mo Hua was quite shocked, "Then the Dao Tingsi will take care of it."
"They have robbed and killed, what's the use of the Dao Tingsi taking care of it..."
Elder Yu wanted to say a few dirty words, but when he thought of being in front of Mo Hua, he restrained himself a little.
"All the direct disciples died, and only the foundation-building cultivators were left. They are just empty shells with strong appearances and weak insides. There is a lack of successors, and they will be squeezed out sooner or later and have no place to stand."
"Also, if there is no foundation-building garrison in the important industries of the Qian family outside, if there is a mistake, it will be really broken..."
"It is not easy to protect a large family and a large business, so they dare not let the foundation-building cultivators come to participate in the war early."
So that's it...
Mo Hua suddenly realized.
Seeing Mo Hua looking thoughtful, Elder Yu thought that Mo Hua was still worried, so he said:
"Don't worry, the foundation builders of the Qian family look fierce, but they are actually weaklings. If one comes, I can deal with it easily. Even if two or three come, I can deal with them."
Mo Hua was shocked. Elder Yu turned out to be so powerful.
"Elder, are you very skilled?" Mo Hua said.
"It's not that I am very skilled," Elder Yu sighed and smiled bitterly, "It's just that I dare to risk my life to fight, but they don't dare."
Mo Hua looked at Elder Yu.
There were all kinds of criss-cross light-colored scars on Elder Yu's thin arms and neck. Because the elder had dark skin, it was hard to tell them apart without paying attention.
These wounds should be left by fighting desperately...
Mo Hua thought silently.
If the Qian family did not attack, the demon hunters would concentrate on mining the spiritual mine. But Elder Yu knew that the Qian family would not give up.
A few days later, the Qian family came again.
This time they had reinforcements, several strong earth-type spiritual root cultivators, fully armed and wearing iron armor.
This was the way Qian Zhuang thought hard to break the situation.
The power of the earth fire array was not too strong, so he found some earth-type body-refining cultivators with thick skin and flesh, wearing iron armor, and directly stepped on the earth fire array.
As long as the earth fire array was gone, there would be a smooth road ahead.
So he used his connections to invite, transfer or ask for several earth-type spiritual roots from the clan, who had practiced earth-type exercises and had strong bodies.
He almost spent all his savings to buy or borrow several sets of iron armor made of fine iron, as well as some spiritual tools that could ward off fire.
Tonight, he must break the earth fire array!
The situation was exactly as he expected.
The earth-type cultivators wearing iron armor and carrying fire-repelling spiritual tools stepped directly on the earth fire array with seven array patterns, sparking explosions of fire.
The mountain was filled with explosions and flames.
The fire spirits from the explosions hit the armor, but most of the power was offset, and some of the fire was dissipated by the fire-proof spirit tools. A small part of the remaining power hurt the earth-based monks wearing armor, but it did not cause much damage.
In this way, the earth-based monks wearing armor had trampled through the earth-fire arrays in the mountains.
Several sets of armor were also damaged, and one set was even broken.
Qian Zhuang was distressed, but all these costs were worth it!
He finally broke the earth-fire array!
Qian Zhuang was proud and full of energy.
He led the Qian family monks and finally crossed the mountainside area that was originally covered with earth-fire arrays, which had caused him several setbacks and psychological trauma!
The Qian family monks also came to the front of the mine and officially began to confront the demon hunter.
Then Qian Zhuang suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten the most critical issue:
Their original tactics seemed to be a sneak attack...
Now a group of demon hunters wearing rattan armor, ready for battle, or even waiting for the opportunity, stood here and stared at them for a long time.
And after being destroyed by the earth and fire array, they finally came to the demon hunters.
But... can this be called a sneak attack?
The demon hunters looked at them with a playful look, as if looking at a fool.
Anger flashed across Qian Zhuang's face, but his heart felt cold.
What to do next, he suddenly didn't know...
Fight?
It seems that he can't win.
Escape?
Then what are they doing here? Why do they go through so much trouble to go to the earth and fire array?
When Qian Zhuang doubted himself, Yu Chengyi had already drawn his sword.
Then, the swords of the demon hunters also came out of their sheaths.
The night was dark, and the demon hunters' swords flashed a white light.
"Kill!"
Yu Chengyi roared in a deep voice, and the demon hunters behind him were full of momentum and rushed towards the Qian family monks.
So, the Qian family monk who had gone through so much trouble to cross the earth and fire formation was defeated and driven back in a mess in less than a moment.
Qian Hong escaped back to the camp with great difficulty and summarized the battle situation in a dusty face.
The death and injury of the disciples were inevitable, and several sets of iron armor were also confiscated.
There was no way, the primary target of the group of demon hunters was the iron armor, and people were secondary.
The demon hunters hunted demons for many years, cooperated tacitly, and were skilled. With the cooperation of several people, it only took a few rounds to knock down the Qian family monk wearing iron armor.
Then they peeled off the iron armor and took it away in a few seconds.
For the demon hunters, skinning the monsters was no problem, let alone the iron armor on their bodies.
Qian Zhuang felt heartbroken and absurd at the same time.
If he hadn't been confused by the earth and fire formation and only wanted to break the formation, he wouldn't have forgotten their original intention.
It turned a sneak attack into an open attack.
He was caught off guard by others who had taken advantage of his rest.
Qian Zhuang hated him to death.
Who the hell drew this earth and fire formation? !
