Chapter 693: A Surprise Attack
This cry was sharp and urgent. Several other fifth- and sixth-level red-tailed sea scorpions seemed to have received some orders. They abandoned their opponents at the same time and rushed towards the spirit ship next to them.
The opposite Qian Zhushi was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically, and he shouted: "Not good, the monster is going to destroy the spirit ship with all his might, stop them quickly."
Hearing Qian Zhushi's reminder, many people were shocked and rushed towards the red-tailed sea scorpion closest to them. But the passengers on the spirit ship were not from Wantong Pavilion after all. Many people encountered this situation for the first time, so they reacted a little slower. Although some people blocked the nearby red-tailed sea scorpions in time, several of them still hit the spirit ship.
The simultaneous collision of several fifth- and sixth-level red-tailed sea scorpions was more powerful than the largest red-tailed sea scorpion king. The spirit ship was already on the verge of collapse. How could it withstand such a collision? There was a loud bang, and the entire spirit ship fell apart in an instant.
Seeing the spirit ship destroyed, Qian was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. He had never had such a serious accident in Wantong Pavilion for so many years. This time, not only did he suffer heavy losses, but it was also a great blow to Wantong Pavilion's reputation. Even if he could finally return to Wantong Pavilion safely, he would probably be severely punished.
The other people in Wantong Pavilion were also depressed. Although they were not the main responsible for safety, such a big thing happened, and punishment was inevitable. Not to mention anything else, at least the work of the past few years was in vain, and he might even have to pay for it after returning.
The passengers present also regretted it. Why didn't they act faster and stop those red-tailed sea scorpions? Now that the spirit ship was destroyed, everyone can only walk to Zhongsha District. It is still hundreds of thousands of miles away from Zhongsha District. There are many dangers on the sea. Without the protection of the spirit ship, it is unknown how many people will fall behind and die in the belly of fish.
Although the monks were affected by the destruction of the spirit ship, the red-tailed sea scorpions were not idle. They took this opportunity to attack the monks next to them, and the largest red-tailed sea scorpion king was no exception. After a scream, his brown body bulged, as if a layer of armor had been split, and his two claws glowed with a metallic luster, and his speed was a little faster than before.
He came to Qian Zhushi in three or two steps. His two claws were like two machetes, flying up and down, forcing Qian Zhushi to retreat step by step, and the fiery red tail hook behind him was always in an attacking state, sneaking up as soon as he found an opportunity, making Qian Zhushi unable to defend himself.
If you walk by the river often, you will get your shoes wet. Qian Zhushi's strength is slightly worse than that of the monster, and the red-tailed sea scorpion has gone crazy. In this case, Qian Zhushi is frequently in danger.
But the monsters were already outnumbered, and there was no one to help. One of them was accidentally scratched by the tail hook of the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King. Qian Zhushi screamed and retreated quickly.
The Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King had the upper hand, so how could he let go of the opportunity easily? So he chased after him, ready to kill the leader in one fell swoop.
Qian Zhushi was only scratched a little. Although the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion was poisonous, he escaped before he could inject much poison. In addition, Qian Zhushi was very powerful, so he could temporarily suppress the poison from spreading. But the monster chased after him, not giving him a chance to expel the poison. Now that he was poisoned again, how could he be a match for the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King?
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Qian Zhushi also gave up. He gritted his teeth and took out a fiery red pill from the Nawu Talisman and put it into his mouth. Qingyang had seen this pill in Yinfeng Gorge before. Master Yuchu had taken one in a critical moment. It was called the Blood Burst Pill.
This pill was incredibly powerful and could instantly double a cultivator's strength, but it also had great side effects. After the effect of the pill wore off, there would be a long period of weakness. On a sea surrounded by monsters, long periods of weakness were like fish on a chopping board. Moreover, taking this pill would also affect one's foundation. Apart from anything else, the hope of achieving a golden elixir in the future would be even slimmer. Therefore, no one would easily take this Blood Burst Pill unless it was absolutely necessary.
Now that his life was in danger, he could not care so much. The pill entered his mouth and instantly turned into a violent energy that filled his body's meridians. In a blink of an eye, Master Qian's entire body swelled up, his skin turned scary red, and in fact, it had almost doubled. Master Qian was originally a perfect foundation cultivator. After taking the Blood Burst Pill, his strength became even stronger, not much worse than that of a golden elixir cultivator.
After his strength surged, Qian Zhushi suddenly made a comeback. The Pingshan shovel that he had prepared for a long time suddenly appeared on the top of the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King's head and chopped it down with great force.
The Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King was completely unprepared for this. He didn't understand why the cultivator who was being chased by him just now suddenly changed. It was too late to dodge and block at this time. He could only concentrate all his skills and hope that his super strong defense could block this attack.
However, no matter how strong the defense of the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King was, it could not stop the desperate attack of Qian Zhushi, a cultivator who had completed the foundation building. The Pingshan shovel chopped on the top of the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King's head. With a click, the hard shell on the top of the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King's head burst open, exploding a hole as big as a basin. Not only that, one of the eyes next to it was also affected and smashed into a pit. It was because the Red Tailed Sea Scorpion King was relatively large that this injury did not put his life in danger.
After being severely injured, the Red-tailed Sea Scorpion King screamed and quickly retreated. Qian Zhushi took advantage of the victory and launched a series of attacks with the flat mountain shovel. The Blood Burst Pill has a time limit. If the effect of the medicine ends and he has not killed the Red-tailed Scorpion King, he will be in trouble.
After being injured, the Red-tailed Sea Scorpion King's reaction became slower and slower. In just a few breaths, he was hit several times in a row by Qian Zhushi's flat mountain shovel. However, the Red-tailed Sea Scorpion King had time to react. Although he was hit, he was not as seriously injured as the first time.
But everyone can see that the Red-tailed Scorpion King has lost his courage. Now he can only defend himself without any ability to fight back. As long as Qian Zhushi pursues him, it is only a matter of time before he defeats the opponent.
Perhaps the destruction of the spirit ship touched the monks present, or perhaps they were inspired by the great power of Master Qian, the other monks also did their best to launch a new round of charge against the red-tailed sea scorpions, with spirit weapons flying all over the sky, and dozens of red-tailed sea scorpions were killed in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that there were only more than 200 red-tailed sea scorpions left on the field, the monsters lost their courage and completely lost their previous momentum. They were timid and kept avoiding the monks' attacks, and even began to look for a way to retreat, and they were about to collapse.
