Chapter 457 The fisherman gains the advantage
The group of cultivators who followed them also saw the monster stop at the crater, and found that the monster was staring at the Sky Fire Wood without blinking. They all felt bad like the old man in green robe.
However, time was running out. As soon as the old man in green robe and the group of cultivators stopped, a cunning look suddenly appeared in the monster's eyes. It suddenly rushed up, opened its mouth and let out a roar.
Then, the Sky Fire Wood wrapped in yellow light trembled violently and flew out.
"Puff" sounded several times in a row. As soon as the Sky Fire Wood broke out of the yellow light, the evil wind in the monster's mouth suddenly rose, and it actually wrapped the wood and swallowed it into its stomach.
"No, this beast is going to eat the Sky Fire Wood!"
The big bearded man reminded loudly.
Without the other party saying much, the old man in green robe could also see the purpose of this strange beast from the current situation. The reason why it fought and retreated was obviously to divert their attention so that it could swallow the Sky Fire Wood.
With the spirituality of the Heavenly Fire Wood, the beast will definitely increase its cultivation after swallowing it. By then, no matter how many people they have, it will be difficult to kill it, and the Heavenly Fire Wood will also be missed.
The old man absolutely cannot let such a bad thing happen. When the lower half of the moon ring slashed in the air, under the blessing of a burst of magic power, the blade's light exploded, and a surge of spiritual energy was stirred up. In a blink of an eye, it had slashed several times, forcibly cutting off the evil wind of the monster swallowing the Heavenly Fire Wood.
The good thing was blocked, and the monster was immediately furious. It roared at the old man and spit out several balls of fire at him regardless of its injuries.
The sharp blade in the old man's hand trembled wildly, not because of his magic power, but because it was burned by the beast's demonic fire.
The old man opened his eyes angrily. Losing two magic weapons in succession was a big deal for him, but before he could be shocked and angry, a ball of flames came in front of him. In an instant, there was a surging sea of fire within a radius of several feet. The temperature was several times higher than the previous fight, making the old man clearly feel that his own magic power was burned.
He was shocked. Such a crazy attack showed that the monster had already fought desperately and was ready to fight back.
The second-level intermediate monster was comparable to the mid-level mana cultivator. With the blessing of the fire attribute aura here, its strength increased by at least three points. Although the old man was furious, he did not want to lose his life here. Seeing the amazing sea of fire, he did not dare to hesitate at all and quickly offered a bowl to cover his whole body.
The bowl was green all over, and the light was dazzling. Under the urging of the old man's magic power, it immediately projected a majestic light shield. This shield was like an iron wall, and no matter how fierce the monster's fire was, it could not penetrate it at all.
The old man was relieved when he saw this scene.
Through the firelight, he looked at the angry monster outside, and his face gradually became gloomy. This time, he actually lost two magic weapons for it. This is not something that can be compensated by just getting the Tianhuomu. He must pull out the tendons and bones of this monster and refine it into a magic weapon to relieve his hatred.
As the old man was thinking, there was a strange sound of "puff", and then several black lights appeared out of thin air. It was vaguely seen that the monster trembled a few times, and it let out a shrill howl of pain. Its body was dismembered on the spot and exploded into a ball of blood mist.
At the same time, the fire curtain that surrounded him also quickly dissipated.
The old man was shocked, and the surrounding cultivators were also stunned.
But when they lost their minds, the black light that killed the monster gathered again, transformed into the appearance of a masked woman and flew to the top of the volcano, heading straight for the Sky Fire Wood.
Everyone looked at the woman in disbelief. They didn't know what kind of magical power she used, but she was so fast that she killed the monster in the blink of an eye.
At this time, she stretched out her jade hand, and the Sky Fire Wood had not had time to break the ban and fly away, and she was about to be caught in her hand.
"Looking for death!"
The green-robed old man was furious. The masked woman took advantage of his fierce fight with the monster to attack him, obviously taking advantage of his loophole.
After much effort, the old man was able to seriously injure the monster, and lost two magic weapons for it. How could he watch the other party take away the Heavenly Fire Wood? He rolled up his sleeves and drove the round bowl to hit the masked woman fiercely.
This woman was not an ordinary person. She had noticed it before the round bowl approached. She looked back and suddenly flicked her sleeves.
There were bursts of buzzing sounds, and a large area of black light spread in the field, like a thick cloud covering the top of the entire volcano.
Before the old man could see what the black light was, he saw countless fine short swords bursting out from the cloud.
There was a crisp sound of "ding ding dang dang", sparks suddenly appeared in the air, and the round bowl sacrificed by the old man trembled endlessly under the shocking swords. It could only hold on for a few seconds before it had several fine holes. The light was completely condensed, and it turned into scrap iron and fell into the magma and burned.
Everyone gasped. The masked woman defeated the old man with a single move of her hand. I'm afraid her strength is not as simple as the initial stage of magic power on the surface. There are probably not many people who can be hostile to her.
The old man was horrified. Although this magic weapon was not as good as the previous two magic treasures destroyed by monsters, it was good at defense. Even the raging sea of fire just now could keep him safe. Now it was chopped into scrap metal by the masked woman with a sword move. How strong is the opponent's magic power?
Looking at the masked woman, the green-robed old man turned pale for a while and dared not act rashly.
But seeing that the Sky Fire Wood fell into the hands of the opponent, he was very unwilling in his heart. It was impossible for him to give up. His eyes flickered and he secretly calculated the opportunity to attack.
The masked woman seemed to know what the old man was thinking. She looked at him coldly and then looked around at everyone. The warning was obvious.
Seeing that no one dared to move, the woman sneered, dark clouds rose under her feet, and she attacked the air again. This time, her target was Tianhuomu.
But at this time, something strange happened again. The woman just stretched out her hand to touch the Sky Fire Wood, and a pillar of fire suddenly spurted out of the cave below, heading straight for the dark clouds under her feet. The fire was like a flood, unstoppable, and the dark clouds were burned wherever it went, making a strange "chi chi" sound, and turned into green smoke and dissipated.
The woman frowned, without even looking at the source of the fire pillar, and waved her sleeves again, and countless short swords quickly attacked.
There was a rustling sound of sword energy everywhere, and in a blink of an eye, the masked woman had slashed out more than ten swords. Even though the fire pillar attacked fiercely, it could not withstand such a cold and sharp sword formation. It was hit and disintegrated in a short while, turning into flames and flowing everywhere, and no longer had the strength to fight.
At this time, looking down along the firelight, I suddenly saw a dark blue strange bird circling and flying. The light pillar just came from the mouth of this bird.
"Whoever blocks me will die!"
A cold color flashed in the woman's eyes. After a cold snort, she summoned a group of swords to fall on the bird.
Her sword was so fast that before the strange bird could dodge, she could hear several flapping sounds. The bird's feathers flew and it wailed.
The masked woman saw this without mercy and used a spell to kill the bird again.
At this moment, a rainbow of light flashed before her eyes. The woman was startled. She seemed to hear the sound of a gust of wind sweeping fallen leaves. She looked up and saw countless flying insects flying into the air, circling in her sword formation. After a moment, she was surprised to find that the swords kept making strange noises and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
They were eaten clean by the flying insects.
The masked woman's expression changed drastically. She was about to attack again, but suddenly she realized something and turned around to look back.
But it was too late. A black shadow flashed out from the volcanic cave as fast as lightning, grabbed the Tianhuo Wood, and then flew back. When it appeared again, it was hundreds of feet away.
Everything happened in a flash, and when everyone came back to their senses, the dust had settled.
The masked woman looked stern. After seeing the person who stole the treasure, her face became even more gloomy, revealing a cold murderous intent.
The person who took the Heavenly Fire Wood was naturally Ye Chunyang. After receiving the wood in his hands, he did not hesitate at all and immediately cast a forbidden spell on the Heavenly Fire Wood to prevent it from being taken away by others. Then he opened the spirit beast bag to recall the mutant blue bird and the demon-eating Gu, and flew away without even looking at everyone.
There were many cultivators at the moment, and he was not conceited enough to be an enemy of everyone. Moreover, the masked woman and the green-robed old man had powerful magical powers. If the two of them joined hands, they would also pose a considerable threat to him. Therefore, there was no reason to stay after getting the treasure.
Although he had made a plan long ago, he was still half a step slower. Before he could move, a shocking spiritual power suddenly covered him and locked him in place.
This spiritual power condensed into clouds, and the surrounding sword lights were shining, all of which were cold and sharp, and any one of them could take someone's life.
At the same time, the masked woman stepped on the black light and fled in front of him. A cold voice came from her mouth: "I wanted to let you live a little longer, but I didn't expect you to seek death. Well, I will fulfill your wish!"
After the woman, the monks also shouted angrily and chased after him one after another. For a while, Ye Chunyang became the target of public criticism.
As soon as the masked woman caught up, she raised her hand with a cold face and waved it before Ye Chunyang could escape. The black light suddenly intersected with cold light, and countless short blades appeared again.
This time, Ye Chunyang clearly saw that there was a set of sword formations in the dark clouds, divided into a pair of mother and child swords. What he had just driven the demon-eating Gu to bite was only one-tenth of the child sword.
At this moment, the woman had no reservations and was determined to kill him with one blow.
Ye Chunyang frowned slightly.
The tone of the masked woman made him feel strange, and the aura of the other party's casting was faintly strange, as if it was not possessed by ordinary monks, and the strength was also far beyond the realm of the initial stage of mana.
But there was no time to think too much now. This woman was so powerful, and with the siege of a group of cultivators, if he delayed for a moment, he would be in big trouble.
Seeing the masked woman driving the sword formation to attack, he sneered, without any fear.
Then he pointed with two fingers, and the demon-eating Gu flew out again.
After a flash of the group of Gu, they condensed into a ball of light in the air and flew straight to the center of the sword formation.
This time, the demon-eating Gu's target was no longer the sub-swords outside, but the mother sword hidden in the black light.
As long as it was destroyed, the sword formation would naturally fall apart.
There were dense flying insects in the sight, and the masked woman's face changed again.
The situation was urgent and she couldn't see clearly just now, but now she could see clearly.
These hundreds of flying insects had sharp mouths and fangs, and the outer sub-swords could not resist the opponent's swallowing at all. In a blink of an eye, most of the entire sword formation was lost, and even the mother sword in the center was shaking, and the spiritual power became unstable.
A solemn expression flashed across the pretty face of the masked woman, and her gaze towards Ye Chunyang became even colder.
Ye Chunyang ignored what the woman was thinking. After the demon-eating Gu broke through the Wuguangzimu Sword, he clasped his hands together again, and continuously shot out several spiritual lights. The group of Gu immediately split into two groups, and rushed towards the surrounding monks respectively.
