Chapter 324 Fire Jade Added to the Body [Two in One]
In fact, the fire beasts did not understand why their natural enemies could come to their nests.
Because Honglu Mountain is such a huge volcano, the interior is rugged and winding. Although there are hundreds of roads leading to the mountain, there is not a single one that the huge bodies of fire-eating beasts can pass through. At most, they can hunt some scattered fire beasts on the outer mountains, and it is impossible for them to directly open up a road.
After losing the barrier of terrain, the fire beasts completely lost the barrier to stop their natural enemies. This was one of the main reasons why they were so panicked.
Liang Yue and Yuan Sheng didn’t understand the surprise. The big toad was coming in, so they just had to beat it!
With a backbone, the large group of fire beasts were temporarily stabilized and they all followed Liang Yue and rushed out, which caught the fire-eating beasts off guard.
The caves outside the mountain collapsed and shattered piece by piece, becoming very wide, and six or seven huge fire-eating beasts came in. They thought that after rushing in, the fire beasts would flee in panic, and they would just have to happily hunt for food.
However, I didn't expect that this group of fire beasts were so united and rushed up together.
Thousands of sheep rushing forward could scare a tiger, let alone the fire beast, whose combat power was not weak. It rushed forward like a tsunami, and stunned several big red-skinned toads.
But it doesn’t matter. According to past experience, as long as we kill a few fire beasts in front, they will naturally scatter.
A large toad at the front had already opened its huge mouth, and a red thread popped out, wrapping around the fire beast in front. Unfortunately, the two fire beasts in the front were Liang Yue and Yuan Sheng.
The one that the fire-eating beast was entangled with was Monk Yuansheng. He imitated what Liang Yue had done before and let the fire-eating beast swallow him into its mouth. Then he exerted force suddenly and punched the fire-eating beast's upper jaw.
Bang!
This punch knocked the big toad over on its back, and it fell heavily to the ground with a loud bang. Immediately, a large number of fire beasts came from behind and overwhelmed it, and countless attacks came down.
Over there, Liang Yue used the same trick again and also defeated a fire-eating beast. Then he led the army of fire beasts to continue charging, scaring the remaining few big toads away in panic.
It turns out that everyone is the same. When the fire beast gains the advantage, the seemingly powerful fire-eating beast is just as afraid of death.
However, before the fire beast army caught up with the enemy, a chill suddenly arose in front of them. Liang Yue felt that it was somewhat familiar, and his steps stopped immediately. The fire beasts that followed him also stood still, not knowing what their leader was looking at.
The next moment, sword shadows rose up in the sky, and a man in white flew over from afar, accompanied by the overwhelming light of thousands of swords!
That’s right, it’s Senior Sister Wen!
The reason why Liang Yue stopped just now was because he sensed the sword energy in front of him. He was very familiar with Senior Sister Wen's sword energy.
Facing numerous fire-eating beasts, he dared to lead the charge, but faced with the sword light of Senior Sister Wen, he turned around and ran!
He knew clearly which ones he could touch and which ones he could not touch.
The fire beasts behind him were better at observing the situation than Liang Yue. When they saw their previously extremely brave "leader" suddenly leading the escape, they immediately realized that the one coming was something more terrifying than the fire-eating beast. In an instant, the rear team became the front team, and they all turned around and ran away.
Liang Yue almost couldn't catch up with them.
Seeing the sword light behind him getting closer and closer, he saw that the large army had already drilled back into the central area along the cave. He leaped up and kicked the stone ceiling of the passage into pieces, which fell down with a loud bang, blocking the entrance of the cave.
But he knew that this could only stop Senior Sister Wen for a while, and it wouldn't take long for her sword energy to carve open this passage.
"Miss Wen is so scary." Monk Yuansheng, who had just escaped, said breathlessly.
The last time he was on the same team with Senior Sister Wen, he felt completely safe under Wen Yifan's protection. This time, as the opposite, the feeling of oppression was just as terrifying.
"It's not advisable to stay here for long, we have to leave quickly." Liang Yue said.
"Are you saying that the two of us should go, or..." Monk Yuansheng looked at the fire beasts around him.
All the fire beasts looked at them eagerly, as if Liang Yue was now their only support.
"Of course we can't leave them here, otherwise if Senior Sister Wen rushes in, wouldn't that be like a tiger among a flock of sheep?" Liang Yue said, "Let's move with them!"
"Ah?" Monk Yuansheng scratched his bald head, "Will that be very slow?"
"No, don't you notice that these fire beasts are running faster than each other?" Liang Yue pointed at the caves on the mountain wall, "There are many tunnels in Honglu Mountain. Let's fight guerrilla warfare with them!"
"Who are they?" Monk Yuansheng asked again.
"Of course it's the others." Liang Yue clenched his fist in the air, "Let them see clearly that we fire beasts are not the kind that can be slaughtered by anyone! Let those who come to Honglu Mountain to get fire know how powerful we are!"
Although the fire beasts could not understand their conversation, they could tell from Liang Yue's body movements that he was full of confidence, and they immediately followed suit and shouted, "Ah! Ah! Ah!"
"No..." Monk Yuansheng frowned for a moment, "You are not really into it, are you?"
……
On a hillside inside Honglu Mountain, Yan Shenbing and Wu Handing were standing at the intersection, looking at the deep mountains in the distance, waiting quietly.
After a while, Wu Handing asked, "It's been a long time, why is there no movement?"
"Don't worry." Yan Shenbing said calmly: "There shouldn't be any problem with my plan."
"That's how it should be..." Wu Handing murmured, "We opened the road to the fire beast's lair and lured the fire beasts there. The fire beasts should have come out to escape long ago..."
It turned out that the three brothers had just met at the outskirts of Honglu Mountain and had been advancing very smoothly. They also arrived near the fire beast's lair and found that there were too many fire beasts gathered there and it was not easy to deal with them. Even if they could kill some of the fire beasts, they would not have time to collect the Xuanyang Fire.
Yan Shenbing immediately raised his hand and said, "I have a plan." He led the two brothers to open up the road and then led the fire-eating beast in.
In this way, the large number of fire beasts inside will flee in panic, and they will wait at the intersection outside, where they can easily hunt a large number of fire beasts in the chaos.
This plan sounded fine, but after waiting for a while, the fire beast did not escape.
After waiting for a while, I actually saw several large toads with fiery red stripes leaping and flying out.
"Hmm?" Yan Shenbing looked at the fleeing fire-eating beasts and was a little surprised. "Were they defeated by the fire beasts?"
"This is indeed a bit strange. The fire beast can actually break the suppression of its natural enemy." Wu Handing was also a little confused.
At this moment, Lin Fenghe, who was on a tree nearby, said, "There is a sword aura over there. It should be Senior Sister Wen who made a move."
"No wonder!" Yan Shenbing said, "It must be that Miss Wen appeared in the chaos and intercepted those panicked fire beasts."
"What should we do then?" Wu Handing frowned and asked, "Miss Wen has already charged in, so why are we still waiting here?"
"What she can do alone is difficult for the three of us to do together. There's nothing we can do." Lin Fenghe suggested from above, "But she probably can't kill so many fire beasts by herself. If we go over now, maybe we can grab some." "Okay!" Wu Handing nodded in agreement.
"That's right. There are so many fire beasts in there. She will definitely not be able to kill them all." Yan Shenbing said, "Let's just pick up some of the leftovers. She will eat the meat and we can eat the bones."
"I still want to eat something normal..." Wu Handing said in a low voice.
If a normal person said this, it might be a metaphor. But when someone like Yan Shenbing, who is suspected of having pica, said this, he was worried that his elder brother was really greedy.
I thought I was going to snatch food from Miss Wen, but actually I was going to snatch food from the dog.
The three brothers were about to set off when they suddenly heard a sound of running behind them, and a large group of footsteps rushed towards them with a rumbling sound.
"What's going on?" Yan Shenbing turned around and saw a large number of fire beasts rushing out from the mountain road behind him. They were divided into two groups, and surrounded the three brothers from the front and back in a blink of an eye.
Why would this group of fire beasts take the initiative to attack?
The three of them were confused for a moment, but they were not very panicked, because their previous experience in fighting fire beasts was that even if there were many fire beasts, they would run away as long as a few died.
But this time, for some reason, this group of fire beasts seemed to be energized and rushed forward regardless of anything.
After Yan Shenbing had killed the fire beasts one after another, the continuous and impenetrable impact finally made him unable to withstand it, and he began to retreat, while Wu Handing also fought and retreated. Lin Fenghe came high and walked high, although he was not easy to deal with, but there were still fire beasts that jumped high and hit him.
Boom boom boom——
For a moment, the battlefield was divided into three parts. The three brothers were caught off guard and had no choice but to turn around and flee.
The fire beasts that died in the battle with them just now left behind a wisp of Xuanyang Fire floating in the air. If no one collects it for a period of time, it will turn into fire and dissipate in the air.
After repelling the three people, the remaining fire beasts gathered together and began to cheer and shout.
They have always been the target of hunting in the mountains, but now they are winning victory after victory, and all of this is brought to them by the new leader!
The fire beasts all turned around and looked up. On a large rock stood Liang Yue, a fire beast in disguise.
He raised his hands slightly and pressed them down, signaling the fire beasts to be quiet.
Then he put his palms together and leaned down towards the wisps of Xuanyang Fire floating in the air, as if mourning for the sacrificed fire beast.
The fire beasts below followed suit and bowed their bodies to express their grief.
Liang Yue raised his eyes quietly and saw that all the fire beasts were leaning forward. He and Yuansheng quickly took out their gourds and sucked in the Xuan Yang Fire in the air.
This is equivalent to letting the three brothers Yan Shenbing work for him, so naturally the amount of Xuanyang Fire they obtain is not small.
After the absorption was completed, Liang Yue stood up again and shouted twice.
"Aoao!" The other fire beasts also shouted.
The raid just now was the first guerrilla war Liang Yue led them to fight. The roads in Honglu Mountain are interconnected, and no one is more familiar with these roads than the fire beasts. Under the guidance of the fire beasts, they can appear anywhere in Honglu Mountain at any time.
Liang Yue sent out "sentinels" to investigate everywhere, and they would come back to report when they saw any human figures. Then a large group of fire beasts would rush forward to attack.
This approach was successful.
This battle greatly boosted the morale of the fire beasts.
Just as he was thinking about where to move next, suddenly a huge fire beast that seemed to have higher cultivation than its peers stood up.
It looked like a giant ape, more than ten feet tall, and it walked towards us with a bang, looking quite majestic.
Liang Yue looked at it cautiously, wondering what the purpose of this big fire beast was. Was it trying to show goodwill or to challenge him?
Just when he was wondering, the fire beast suddenly half-knelt in front of him and pulled out a red diamond-shaped jade crystal from the fire core in its chest. It could be seen that it was in pain when pulling out the jade crystal, and it grimaced for a while.
Finally, it held the red jade in its hand and handed it to Liang Yue.
"This is..." Liang Yue hesitated in his heart, not knowing what this thing was.
But the fire beasts around him were all shouting and howling eagerly, as if they were looking forward to him getting this thing.
Liang Yue looked around and decided to follow their wishes and took the red jade.
I only felt that there was a very pure and hot fire power in it, but I couldn't perceive its magnitude clearly. It didn't feel warm when I held it in my hand, but once I probed my spiritual consciousness into it, it was like a sea of fire.
As Liang Yue took the red jade, the fire beasts around him began to shout loudly: "Roar——"
It seems like they are celebrating the ascension of the new king!
……
Outside the secret realm, Yang Wuqi covered his face with his hands, as if he could not accept this scene at all.
In fact, Liang Yue had been feeling quite uncomfortable ever since he sneaked into the lair of the fire beasts and was mistaken for their leader.
"What is this?" Master Yun asked curiously, "It seems to be some kind of treasure that the fire beast got?"
"It seems to be the crystallization of Xuanyang Fire?" Taoist Feng thought, "I feel that the fire spirit power in it is extremely pure."
"Yes, that is the Xuanyang Fire Jade that can only be nurtured in Honglu Mountain over thousands of years. It is the essence of Xuanyang Fire. The fire beasts are exploring the magma up and down Honglu Mountain in search of the fire jade. Once they get the fire jade, they may be able to transcend the body of the fire beast."
"So when the fire beasts find the fire jade, they will try their best to hide it. And our Yin Yang Sect put the Ling Clam Clan in as fire-eating beasts, just to continuously search for the fire beasts to see if there are any hidden fire jades. Once the fire-eating beasts eat the fire jade, they will give it to us in exchange for their own cultivation resources."
"That seemingly palm-sized piece of fire jade is equivalent to the harvest of Honglu Mountain in a hundred years." Yang Wuqi said: "The fire beast actually handed such a precious thing to that disguised kid. It is really... stupid."
"I think this shows that Liang Yue is a good leader and is popular with the people...beastly." Xu Zhan'ao said with a smile: "I think the Yin-Yang Sect will not be stingy with its own disciples, and will not take back the fire jade, right?"
Of course Yang Wuqi wanted to come back. If it was someone else it would be fine, but Liang Yue was such a terrible guy that it would be uncomfortable even if he ate a mouthful of dirt from his Yin Yang Sect.
However, if we try to take back what we have gained from the trial by force, it will inevitably make the Xuanmen ancestral temple seem less generous.
After a long while, he managed to utter, "You can give it to him, but this item is rare, and he can't take it away for nothing."
Good morning.
