Chapter 456: Joining forces to fight the monster
The green-robed old man and the bearded man also saw that those who could remain calm and watch after discovering the Heavenly Fire Wood must be people with a calm mind. Both Ye Chunyang and the masked woman had obscure auras, and it was hard to guarantee that they did not have some extraordinary means.
The masked woman had a face as pale as ancient water, and did not answer the two people's questions.
But after a slight glance, she suddenly moved her body and leaped towards the center of the volcano. Her intention was obvious, that the monster guarding the Heavenly Fire Wood would take action.
Seeing this, the green-robed old man and the bearded man looked at each other in surprise, but did not say much. Finally, they looked at Ye Chunyang who was silent and motionless, and then they moved into the battle circle together.
Looking at the three people taking action one after another, Ye Chunyang's eyes flickered slightly. These people were all shrewd and calculating. They knew that if they did not make an effort, they would definitely become the target of public criticism after killing the monster. On the contrary, if all the cultivators joined forces to attack, it would be very difficult to deal with everyone, not to mention seizing the Heavenly Fire Wood.
Ye Chunyang was naturally aware of this. He looked at the strange beast and followed the green-robed old man and the bearded man into the volcano.
With their joining, the number of besiegers suddenly became 17 or 18 people, and each of them had a magic weapon and attacked the strange beast crazily.
As the number of people increased, the monster was naturally under pressure. It kept roaring in anger that shook the world, and bursts of raging fire violently spewed out, burning the void of hundreds of feet in radius.
However, the defense of this beast was amazing. There were no less than ten flying swords in the field, and the other magic weapons were of various types. Whether it was attack or restriction, it could not make any achievements on this beast. Every time it approached this beast, it was repelled by the flames it spewed. For a while, the two sides were deadlocked.
Ye Chunyang's spiritual sense sensed it slightly and found that this beast was born with tough skin and bones, but what really allowed it to compete with everyone was the flame magic power in its mouth. This fire was not an ordinary fire. Once the cultivator's magic weapon touched it, its spirituality was burned away and its power was greatly reduced.
This flame can corrode the spirit, and its magical power is extremely strange. Others' spiritual senses are naturally unable to detect the strangeness in it, but Ye Chunyang's perception cannot be hidden.
However, he did not force himself to come forward, but controlled the magic flame ring to attack the beast from a distance, while secretly observing the Sky Fire Wood.
When the wood flew out of the volcano before, it had been sealed by the monster with magical power, but at this moment it was still trembling in the yellow light, as if it was about to break the ban and fly away at any time. Now he was just waiting for an opportunity. If the wood really broke through the seal of the monster, it would be his chance to attack.
Although there were many cultivators here, as long as he could get the Sky Fire Wood in his hands, it would not be difficult for him to get away with his means.
So he simply took his time, neither confronted head-on nor helped to besiege the beast, so that no one would leave a handle.
Most of the people present had the same idea as him. On the surface, they seemed to be working hard, but in fact, they all had their own reservations.
But at this moment, a green light suddenly shot up into the sky, and the attack was several times faster than everyone else. When the monster sprayed out the fire curtain, it did not dodge but rushed towards it head-on.
"Hmph, what a beast, I want to see whether you are thick-skinned or my 'Dragon Blood Thorn' is sharper."
After a long time of attack, the green-robed old man was furious. He snorted with a cold face, and the dragon head iron staff in his hand suddenly flew out of his hand, and then he used a spell.
The staff suddenly became sharp, and it clashed left and right in the fire curtain like a sharp sword. The sharp rainbow light also shook the fire curtain back step by step.
Seeing this, the monster was immediately furious. After a few consecutive whistles, its four feet suddenly stepped into the air, and a ball of fire cloud rose under its feet, rolling straight towards the old man's iron staff, and then the huge body swayed continuously, and a large piece of yellow light was released from the several-foot-long horns.
There were a few muffled "bangs" and the iron staff lost its spirituality, and the offensive power was weakened by three points.
But the old man seemed to have been prepared for this and was not panicked. He took out his hand from the Qiankun bag and a golden talisman appeared out of thin air. In the low sound of his spell, the talisman shone brightly and bursts of flames in the air.
"Hey, is this a low-level spiritual talisman, the Thunder and Flame Talisman? I didn't expect that Taoist Qiufeng would have such a method."
The bearded man not far away was obviously familiar with the green-robed old man and recognized the spiritual talisman in his hand. He couldn't help but show a little surprise.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Taoist Lu. This talisman was also obtained by me in a ruins in the outer layer not long ago. I wanted to keep it for later use, but I didn't expect it to be used so soon."
The green-robed old man had a proud face and pushed the talisman to the extreme without saying much. The dense explosion penetrated the yellow cloud in an instant, and hit the beast like a meteorite from outer space.
"Boom boom" a loud noise, the monster suddenly wailed, and sparks exploded all over its body.
The old man was overjoyed, and the spell was pointed in the air, and the iron rod struck out again.
The iron rod seemed to be thick and heavy without edges, but under the old man's spell, it caused the surrounding void to tremble repeatedly.
After the rod swept wildly, there was a sharp and strange sound on the monster's horn, showing several smooth gaps, and finally it turned into a blood mist and exploded with a painful howl of the beast.
Sudden and severely injured, the monster wailed non-stop, staring at the old man with a sinister look.
But everyone was experienced and knew that this opportunity was rare, so they were overjoyed and cast forbidden spells to circle the beast one by one without thinking too much.
Opposite the green-robed old man and the bearded man, the masked woman also flashed her eyes at this time, as if she was thinking about something secretly, and released a rainbow of light for a moment, its color was like ink, the breath was obscure and condensed, and it was sharp.
The woman's magical power happened to fall into Ye Chunyang's peripheral vision. He took a quick look and faintly noticed that the woman's magical power was a bit strange, strange and a bit familiar. He must have seen it somewhere, but in his impression It seems that he has never interacted with her.
However, when he looked at the woman again, the strange feeling just now disappeared.
Ye Chunyang frowned, feeling a little surprised and doubtful in his heart, but after thinking for a while, he didn't think deeply about it.
No matter who the masked woman is, he has no intention of caring about it. The monster can't hold on for long now, and facing treasures such as Sky Fire Wood, killing the monster will definitely trigger a new round of chaos. Whether you can successfully obtain the Heavenly Fire Wood depends on your own ability.
Thinking of this, while activating the magic formula, he secretly approached Tianhuo Mu. As long as he had the chance, he would take action without hesitation.
With its strength greatly reduced, and faced with such a storm of attacks, the monster's expression finally changed drastically.
It took several steps back, staring at everyone with unwilling eyes, and it even held a grudge against the old man in green robe.
The old man in green robe didn't care about this. Seeing that the monster was already in a certain death situation, he couldn't help but feel a little proud on his face. He made a move with his big hand in the air, and was about to activate the iron staff to kill the opponent.
This monster, which looked like a cow but was not a cow, and as strong as a mountain, roared in fright, like spring thunder, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains.
When the iron rod came, its body trembled violently, and the sky was filled with brilliant firework, splashing endlessly in the air, and its huge figure disappeared in the brilliance.
The old man was startled, thinking that it must be some kind of demonic magic used by this beast to protect himself. The force of the iron rod continued unabated, and in an instant it passed through the light, hitting the center of the fire with several "puff" sounds.
There was a loud roar of "Ouch". Judging from the sound, it seemed that the iron rod had indeed hit the monster. However, the old man in green robe suddenly changed his face and realized that he had lost the connection with the iron rod. No matter how he summoned him, there was no response. . The old man immediately panicked. This staff was his natal magic weapon. Once it was damaged, he would be greatly implicated. It was not a good thing to be injured in this competitive situation.
He snorted angrily, with murderous intent on his face. Regardless of the firelight protecting the monster, he drove Xiangyun to go find out.
At this time, a sudden change occurred, and a shocking roar resounded in the air. The monster's huge body suddenly rushed out of the fire, holding the old man's dragon-headed iron staff in its mouth. After a ball of fire spurted out, the old man was shocked to find him. This natal magic weapon was actually full of cracks, and its spirituality was completely lost in an instant.
With the destruction of his life magic weapon, the old man's face suddenly turned pale, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his vitality was greatly reduced.
This sudden scene also shocked everyone. After the attack, the monster had been seriously injured. I thought that the old man in green robe could kill it easily. Who knew that the beast not only did not die, but destroyed the old man's magic weapon. It's really surprising.
Ye Chunyang was also secretly surprised. It seemed that this beast was more difficult to deal with than the ancient beasts he had encountered before. Its injured and weak appearance just now was probably pretending to lure them. The old man in green robe naturally suffered a big loss due to his carelessness.
"You bastard! If you dare to destroy my magic weapon, I will take your life!"
The old man was furious. After giving a sharp shout, he arrived in front of the monster. He made a secret and cast a spell to send the monster to his death.
Surprise flashed in the eyes of the masked woman and others, and their movements were not slower than the old man. In the blink of an eye, they were approaching the monster several feet away. This time they learned their lesson and no longer used magic weapons to attack, so as not to end up like the old man. He only used magical powers and magic to bombard the beast.
The light in the sky hit like a curtain of rain. Even though the monster had rough skin and thick flesh, several bloodstains appeared on its body one after another, and dark green blood overflowed from it. This time he was seriously injured and his strength was reduced by at least 70%.
It let out several unwilling roars and fought and retreated with everyone.
"I see that your skin and bones are very tough. Since you destroyed my magic weapon, I will simply kill you and use your skin and bones to refine the treasure again."
The magic weapon was destroyed. The old man in green robe was extremely angry. As he spoke, he opened his mouth and blew, and a half-moon-shaped sharp blade appeared. Before the monster could retreat, the blade was fired out, stabbing the beast with several "swish" sounds. Three marks.
Although this half-moon-shaped blade is not the old man's natural possession, and is not as powerful as the iron staff, it is extremely sharp, especially at such a close range. No matter how strong the monster's defense is, it will be scratched to pieces, with blood flowing across it, and it can't stop wailing. .
But at this moment, the old man paused. After seeing a piece of magma under him, he realized that the monster had unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the volcano, right under the sky fire tree.
Something bad suddenly arose in his heart, and the offensive couldn't help but stop.
