The cultivators below, like Zhang Ling and the others, were encountering significant trouble.
A dozen cultivators and demonic beasts had already been killed or injured under the attack of countless tree vines. It should be known that these cultivators and demonic beasts were extremely strong, with at least sixth-order strength or higher. Such heavy losses in such a short period of time were naturally alarming.
Most of the remaining cultivators were gathered near the small teleportation array, attacking the tree vines that were besieging them while also fighting with three strange wood demons.
Among the three wood demons, one was humanoid in shape and twenty zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) tall. Thick tree vines moved on its body, and the air cracked as it swung them. Each strike carried immense power, causing earth and rocks to fly as it hit the ground.
Another wood demon was a unicorn wood snake composed of black wooden pieces. The unicorn on its head was covered with green patterns and emitted a dazzling green light.
Each flash of this unicorn initiated an attack. The wood snake's attack method was very strange. Each time, it raised its head, and the huge wooden pieces on its body charged with the sound of wind howling. With great force, it could easily break through the cultivators' spiritual power shields.
The last wood demon looked the strangest, like a two-zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) long withered wood, but each attack would split into two blades, which were extremely sharp.
This wood demon moved like the wind and also had the magical power to hide its aura, making it the most dreaded. Five or six cultivators had died at its hands.
Zhang Ling had seen a Golden Core Stage cultivator like himself being split in half by a single blade strike, dying miserably.
Fortunately, the cultivators and demonic beasts besieging this strange wood demon were not weak, especially the white deer with seventh-order strength, whose body emitted a glow, seemingly having a restraining effect.
The reason everyone gathered here was naturally to use the teleportation array to leave this place.
Just as the Crimson Fire King attacked in the sky, these three wood demons appeared next to the array. Before everyone had time to use the teleportation array to leave, they were blocked.
Zhang Ling and Huang Ying were also in the crowd dealing with the wood demons. If they were still fighting separately outside at this time, they would probably be exhausted to death by countless tree vines.
After the tree vines turned blood red, their attack power was strong, no less than that of ordinary sixth-order demonic beasts. However, these tree vines also had weaknesses. They could be easily killed with fire attribute attacks, but there were simply too many of them.
The most troublesome were the three wood demons. They did not fear the weakness of the fire attribute, and their attacks were even stronger. If it were not for everyone's combined efforts, their lives would be in danger.
A bright cyan light shone in front of Zhang Ling, and a cyan sword light attacked the unicorn wood snake. When the sword light hit it, only the sound of metal clashing could be heard, and the effect was not great.
The sword incantations in his hand changed continuously, and many sword lights quickly merged together, turning into a huge sword light to attack. This was the attack of the greatsword technique, which was several times more powerful than ordinary attacks.
Several greatswords quickly danced to form a sword wheel, slashing on the wood snake and leaving deep cracks. Some wooden pieces were directly chopped into fragments.
It seemed to cause a lot of damage to the wood snake.
But this wood snake had special magical powers. After a few breaths, the places where the wood snake's body was broken were flashing with light, and once again condensed into black wooden pieces. In a short period of time, it recovered as before, seemingly having an immortal body, which was very difficult to deal with.
Huang Ying was also performing attacks next to him. The crimson fox jade pendant in her hand transformed into two huge foxes, which opened their mouths and spewed out clusters of huge fireballs.
At the same time, there were two half-demons and one demon beast fighting the unicorn wood snake.
The demon beast was a sixth-order cyan bird, flying in the sky and emitting huge wind blades.
One of the half-demons was an old man with a red spot on his face, holding a copper seal carved into a small mountain. As he cast the spell, yellow light flickered on it, and with a constant rumbling sound, yellow light shot out, forming earth attribute attacks such as stone cones and stone balls.
The other half-demon was the girl riding the strange fish. This girl had seventh-order strength, the strongest among the dozen people. A long-necked jade bottle in her hand flickered with blue light, spraying out black water balls, which turned into streams of water like black tentacles, constantly entwining.
Although the girl's attack seemed simple, once the black water flow was wrapped around the wood snake, it had a strong adhesion.
With this restraint, the few people were safe for the time being.
Suddenly, the unicorn on the head of the unicorn wood snake emitted a dazzling spiritual light and roared. It was seen that the body originally composed of black wooden pieces suddenly turned emerald green, and then all the wooden pieces on the body flew out, forming a whirlwind and sweeping towards the crowd.
Defense!
The half-demon old man immediately shouted, and the copper seal in his hand became huge, forming a huge black stone blocking his body.
Without this person's reminder, Zhang Ling and others also began to defend.
It was seen that the countless yellow sands in front of Zhang Ling were flowing rapidly, and in a layer of condensed yellow awn, they were combined into a sand wall to block himself and Huang Ying.
At the same time, Huang Ying opened her mouth and a mass of essence wrapped a snow-white lotus, blooming a layer of white mask to protect the two.
The cyan bird flew directly to a distance above the sky. The half-demon girl's body flashed with black light, and a mass of black water wrapped herself in it.
It was seen that the wind ball formed by the wood snake exploded at once, and the flying black wooden pieces made a loud sound, spreading to the periphery with strong wind pressure.
Zhang Ling only felt several huge forces coming from the sand wall, but he was not panicked. They had dealt with this kind of attack from the wood snake several times. With two layers of defense, it was enough to deal with it.
Sure enough, after a few breaths, the huge force dissipated, and he naturally did not mean to relax. He quickly changed the magic, and the yellow sand in front of him flowed.
It was seen in front that countless wooden pieces quickly rolled back and re-spliced into a unicorn wood snake, and once again launched an impact on the crowd.
Next to it, there were two other groups of battles, also temporary alliances composed of monks and monsters, attacking the other two wood monsters.
Everyone now has some understanding of these three wood monsters, and there are not many casualties under the joint efforts. For a time, it was in a stalemate.
Zhang Ling knew that this situation would not last long.
If he was in another place, he would have flown away directly. With the treasures in his hand, he still had the confidence to escape successfully.
But this place is the Hidden Monster Valley, and it is also in a forbidden place like Bailingtan(百灵潭: Bailingtan, name of a place). Although the five-color aura in the sky has been broken, he is not sure whether he can fly away directly.
If you can kill three wood monsters, it is best to use the teleportation array.
But they could not kill three wood monsters in a short time. While dealing with the unicorn wood snake in front of them, they released some of their minds to pay attention to the battle in the sky.
There are not a few monks who have the same actions as him.
Everyone realized that the biggest threat was the battle group between the transformed monsters in the sky. As long as the Crimson Fire King and the Green Fox King can defeat the giant cocoon, they can naturally get out of trouble.
