Chapter 622 Level 5 Gray-Whiskered Rat
Seeing such a result, Qingyang couldn't help but smile. It was worthwhile to risk using the Three Yuan Sword Formation. Although it consumed a lot of true energy and he was almost injured, he also killed a fourth-level monster and didn't give the other party a chance to entangle him. In this situation, only a quick battle is the best strategy. The longer it drags on, the worse it is for his side.
Now the situation is more favorable to his side. Qingyang didn't get proud. He took out a pill to restore true energy and threw it into his mouth. He temporarily ignored the frightened fourth-level Swift Wind Wolf, but controlled the Qingmu Sword and the Cold Pool Sword to kill other low-level monsters.
The key to this battle is Qingyang, so everyone is paying attention to the battle here at any time, and they are even ready to flee and escape. Who knows that Qingyang once again refreshed their cognition, even Senior Brother Cai is no exception.
Senior Brother Cai certainly knew that Qingyang had the Three Yuan Sword Formation, but it was much more difficult to drive three lower-grade spiritual weapons at the same time than to drive five upper-grade magic swords. If he did it himself, he would definitely not be able to do it. Qingyang had broken through the foundation-building period in a shorter time than him, so how could he do it?
Who knew that Qingyang was so unexpected? The situation that everyone thought was unsolvable was solved by Qingyang's three-yuan sword formation. In the past, I always thought that Qingyang followed them to take advantage of them, but now I find that Qingyang's comprehensive strength is not worse than Nong Zaitian.
They are all cultivators who have practiced for more than a hundred years, and have seen countless people. They have seen many young talents who were amazing for a while, and they have also seen many disciples of immortal sects with deep backgrounds, but not many of them can make it to the end. In the final analysis, it is still a problem of character. Junior Brother Qingyang is young, has strong comprehensive strength, but is also low-key. Only such people can go further.
The five cultivators present became more and more courageous, while the morale of the monsters was getting lower and lower. It was obvious that the monsters had stronger overall strength, but they were suppressed by the human cultivators. This was the so-called preemptive strike, right? At this time, everyone could see that if the situation on the field did not change in a short period of time, it would be a matter of time for the human cultivators to win.
Nong Zaitian and the other two could still barely hold on. The number of monsters in front of Qingyang and Brother Cai gradually decreased. After solving these low-level monsters, they could immediately free up their hands to support Nong Zaitian and others and completely drive away the monsters.
Seeing that a victory was just around the corner, suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the dense forest next to them, as if something was approaching. Before they could figure out what was going on, a gray shadow jumped up from the ground and rushed straight to Brother Cai, who was closest.
Brother Cai was doing his best to deal with the monsters in front of him. He had just killed a third-level hurricane wolf, and he was proud of himself. He was preparing to make persistent efforts to kill a few more. He knew that his strength was not as good as Qingyang, but as a senior brother who had practiced for many more years, he also had to save face and could not rely on others.
Senior Brother Cai put most of his energy on dealing with the Swift Wind Wolf. When he realized that the gray shadow was attacking, it was too late. More importantly, the speed of the gray shadow was too fast. Even if he was fully alert, he might not be able to dodge it.
With a puff, blood splashed, and Senior Brother Cai's body was directly cut in half by the gray shadow and fell to the ground. Then the gray shadow also fell to the ground nearby. At this time, everyone saw clearly that the gray shadow was nothing else, but a fifth-level gray-whiskered rat.
"No, it's a fifth-level gray-whiskered rat!" Nong Zaitian screamed.
The one who could make Senior Brother Cai unable to fight back was at least a fifth-level gray-whiskered rat. These Swift Wind Wolves in front of him were difficult to deal with, let alone a gray-whiskered rat? Everyone is not afraid of a single Swift Wolf, because a single monster is the easiest to deal with. What is feared is a combination of multiple monsters. Some are good at strong attacks, some are good at cooperation, and some are good at sneak attacks, which makes you care about your head but not your butt.
The threat posed by this fifth-level gray-bearded rat to everyone is more terrifying than adding three Swift Wolfs. Now they are really desperate. Unless a miracle happens, they have no chance of winning.
It seems that God is also deliberately teasing them. As soon as Nong Zaitian finished speaking, dozens of gray shadows rushed out of the dense forest and besieged them. Judging from the speed, the strength of these dozens of gray-bearded rats is at least five or six of them above the fourth level.
"My fellow apprentices, things have come to this point, let's all run for our lives!" Nong Zaitian could no longer care about anything else. He roared and rushed in a direction.
Not only Nong Zaitian, Shang Ruhai and Xiong Jianlin had also made preparations long ago. They each used their special skills to escape in the other two directions. Only Qingyang hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that Senior Brother Cai on the ground was indeed silent, he went in the last direction.
As fellow disciples, they still had some trust in each other. If possible, they would not abandon others and escape alone. But now there was obviously no hope of winning. Knowing that staying here would only lead to death, they could only think of ways to escape. Among the many Qingfeng Hall foundation-building disciples who came to Yinfeng together this time, Senior Brother Cai was the one most familiar to Qingyang. The two had been friends for more than 20 years, but they did not expect that he would die here.
Of course, the monsters could not let them escape, and soon they divided into several groups to chase and intercept the four people. Perhaps because they hated Qingyang for killing too many Swift Wind Wolves before, the monsters regarded him as the focus. At least 40% of the monsters chased him in this direction, including a fifth-level Swift Wind Wolf, a fifth-level Gray Whisker Rat, and more than 30 other third- and fourth-level monsters.
This is certainly not good for Qingyang, but it is good for the other three. With more monsters chasing Qingyang, there will definitely be fewer chasing the others, and they might have a chance to escape.
With so many monsters chasing him, Qingyang dared not stay. With his current strength, he could not defeat the drunken bee and the iron-armed monkey even if he released them. As for hiding in the Drunken Immortal Gourd, he should try not to do it if possible. With so many monsters chasing him, if he suddenly disappeared out of thin air, it was hard to guarantee that these monsters would not wait for him. It would be bad if he attracted the attention of higher-level monsters.
Qingyang certainly had other options. Seeing the monsters chasing him, Qingyang's mind moved, and a yellow gourd appeared in the air. Qingyang stood on the gourd with a light leap, and then drove the Wind-Controlling Gourd to fly forward quickly.
This Wind-Controlling Gourd was refined only a few months ago, and it was the first time Qingyang used it outside. He used a trace of mind to drive it, and injected some true essence at the same time. The Wind-Controlling Gourd rushed forward, and its speed was much faster than driving a flying sword. Moreover, it was very easy to use, and the flight was extremely stable. The true essence and mind consumed were much less than flying with a sword. It was indeed a top-grade spiritual weapon.
