Chapter 288 Demonic Monkey's Sneak Attack
Seeing that it was not too early, everyone did not act immediately, but rested for a night at the foot of the hillside, and waited until dawn the next day before continuing to walk towards the Wild Monkey Hill.
As Hou Jiangong said, after walking up for about ten miles, the number of demon monkeys they encountered suddenly increased. On the top of the tree, behind the mound, in the bushes, and among the stone peaks, there were iron-armed spirit monkeys that had not entered the rank secretly spying on them from time to time, as if they were trying to find out their whereabouts.
Perhaps because they were more in number and seemed to be difficult to mess with, those demon monkeys did not rush up directly, but secretly monitored their whereabouts.
After walking up for dozens of miles, they were about to reach the top of the hillside, not far from the demon monkey cave that Hou Jiangong mentioned, and the demon monkeys finally took action. Many iron-armed spirit monkeys suddenly appeared, blocking everyone's way, and there were shadows on the surrounding trees, and it seemed that there were also many demon monkeys lurking.
There were about dozens of demon monkeys blocking everyone's way. The leader was a second-level iron-armed spirit monkey. Behind him, there were two first-level demon monkeys, and the rest were not yet in the first level. Such strength posed no threat to them at all. Qin Ruyan saw it and shouted, "Sword!"
The sword attendant next to him threw the sword in his hand forward, and Qin Ruyan took it with one hand. Then, with a clang, the sword was unsheathed and stabbed at the chest of the second-level demon monkey opposite.
The sword energy was so strong that it could be judged from the spiritual light flashing on the sword edge that Qin Ruyan's sword was at least of the lower-grade spiritual weapon level. Such a sword, let alone a second-level demon beast, even a fourth-level foundation-building demon beast would not dare to directly resist it with its body.
The second-level demon monkey on the opposite side was not giving up. He dodged the sword that was stabbed in the chest with a slight flick of his body. Then he kicked his feet and rushed towards Qin Ruyan. Seeing that the two were getting closer and closer, the demon monkey suddenly used a trick of monkey stealing peaches, and a thin one grabbed Qin Ruyan's chest.
At this time, the sword was still in the air, and it was too late to pull it back to resist the demon monkey's attack. However, Qin Ruyan reacted quickly. When the demon monkey rushed over, she waved her hand to the side, and the umbrella in the umbrella-serving hand flew out of her hand and blocked Qin Ruyan.
With a loud bang, the demon monkey's claws collided with the umbrella. The umbrella retreated slightly, then circled in the air and blocked Qin Ruyan again, seemingly without much impact. The demon monkey was shocked back several steps, first looked at his claws, and then looked at Qin Ruyan in front of him with a little shock.
It turns out that the umbrella in Shisan's hand is also a treasure. Although it is not as good as the sword of the lower-grade spiritual weapon level, it has reached the level of the best magic weapon. The price of a defensive magic weapon is at least twice that of an offensive magic weapon of the same level, which means that this umbrella alone is worth hundreds of spiritual stones. As for Qin Ruyan's sword, it is worth as much as five or six hundred spiritual stones.
They are both outer courtyard disciples. Qingyang's friend Lu Dingshan is still using a medium-grade magic weapon. Tian Shengcai has been more generous recently and has changed to a top-grade magic weapon. As for Qingyang, because he got the legacy of the real person Youming, he can buy five top-grade magic swords at one time, but even so, he can't compare with Qin Ruyan, a direct descendant of the Qingfeng Palace's high-level.
The second-level demon monkey fought with Qin Ruyan, and the remaining two demon monkeys were not idle either. One found Deng Changting and the other found Hou Jiangong. As for the remaining demon monkeys that have not entered the level, they rushed over in a swarm and surrounded Qingyang, Cui Yu'an and others.
Qingyang's expression changed, and the green bamboo sword in the collection talisman flew out, stabbing straight at a demon monkey that had not entered the rank on the opposite side. The sword attack was invisible and the speed was extremely fast. Even a Qi-refining cultivator would have a hard time dealing with it, let alone a demon monkey that had not entered the rank. The demon monkey did not react for a while, and was chopped on the neck by Qingyang's sword, and its head fell off instantly.
With a thought, the flying sword was sacrificed, taking people's lives thousands of miles away. This is the real method of a cultivator. This was the first time that Qingyang used the sword-controlling technique to fight the enemy, and the feeling was completely different. Now thinking about the previous sword-cutting, it was really lame.
The demon monkey in front seemed to be angered by Qingyang's attack. It just paused for a while, and there was a roar from somewhere, and more than a dozen demon monkeys attacked Qingyang. The rest were not idle either, and each of them went to Tian Shengcai and Cui Yu'an and others next to them.
The overall strength of this group of demon monkeys is far inferior to Qingyang and his group, so everyone is not too worried. Now that Qingyang has reached the level of Qi Refining, these demon monkeys that have not entered the level pose no threat to him at all. He fights more than a dozen of them alone and is not at a disadvantage at all.
During the battle, Qingyang suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him. He cried out inwardly that it was not good, and quickly lowered his body, knocked down a demon monkey in front of him, and rolled directly on the ground.
At the same time, a sizzling sound came from behind Qingyang, as if a sharp spike scratched on an iron plate, which was extremely piercing. It turned out that when Qingyang was confronting the dozen demon monkeys in front, a first-level demon monkey had quietly stared at him, and took advantage of Qingyang's inattention to attack him secretly.
Fortunately, Qingyang reacted in time. When the demon monkey's attack was about to come, he made a reaction action, which dissolved most of the opponent's attack. He was not injured because of the blocking of the middle-grade defensive magic weapon, the crocodile armor on his body.
The attack power of the first-level monsters is amazing. If Qingyang is scratched on the back by their claws, even if he can save his life, he will be seriously injured. This is in the group of monkeys. The monster monkeys next to him will definitely not miss the opportunity to beat the dog when it is down. At that time, Qingyang's life and death will be uncertain.
Although he was not injured, Qingyang was also frightened. There was a big cut on the clothes on his back, and even the crocodile armor was scratched with a deep mark. After careful observation, the spiritual light on the crocodile armor dimmed a little. It seems that it was seriously injured. It can only block two or three attacks like the previous one, and then it will be completely scrapped. It seems that the level of the middle-grade defensive spiritual weapon is still a bit low. After returning this time, I will definitely change it to a better one.
This is how it is when you go out for adventure. Sometimes danger suddenly appears. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. There are countless people who die in a muddle. Therefore, protecting yourself is the most important thing, and you must be vigilant at all times to avoid being caught off guard when encountering danger.
After rolling awkwardly on the ground to avoid the attacks of several nearby demon monkeys, Qingyang quickly stood up, carefully guarding against the first-level demon monkey that had just attacked him, then took out a mid-grade defensive talisman from the storage talisman and slapped it on himself.
