Chapter 1491 - 1488: Upper Hand
Chapter 1491 - 1488: Upper Hand
In just a few breaths, the Mu family’s seventh brother had already used up two-thirds of the talismans he carried.
Moreover, this method of fighting consumed a considerable amount of mana, even with the most basic fireball technique and thunder skill for counterattack.
If the battle lasted too long, he would undoubtedly be defeated. His heart was secretly filled with awe.
Yang Fei was also secretly shocked. Although he held the upper hand, frequent instant teleportation also required telekinesis consumption, and activating the Soul Binding Rope demanded mana. In prolonged combat, it ultimately came down to stamina.
Not to mention, the opponent had a mid-stage Core Formation expert chasing Han Dachun, as well as a late-stage Core Formation expert and eight late-stage Foundation Establishment experts.
He couldn’t get trapped in a bitter fight, or else both he and Qin Yanyang would be exhausted to death.
Yang Fei’s mind stirred, and he released over a dozen puppet demon beasts.
Three Fiery Flame Divine Eagles, two Heavenly Horses, and eight Bloodthirsty Bats.
The eight Bloodthirsty Bats immediately launched attacks on the eight Mu family late-stage Foundation Establishment experts who were besieging Qin Yanyang.
The three Fiery Flame Divine Eagles and two Heavenly Horses target Mu family’s seventh brother. Although the Heavenly Horse’s combat power was mediocre, it was incredibly fast, and its massive size coupled with its enchanting call possessed a certain impact power, making its charge considerably powerful.
The Fiery Flame Divine Eagle’s combat power was not weak; a single one was capable of a head-on clash with an early-stage Core Formation expert, and with three attacking simultaneously, Mu family’s seventh brother immediately found himself entangled, struggling in a rather embarrassing manner.
"Ah!"
A shrill scream came from afar.
It was seen that a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Mu family was attacked by a Bloodthirsty Bat and bitten on the neck, most of his vitality drained instantly, dying on the spot.
"Ah!"
Another scream followed.
Qin Yanyang pierced a Mu family cultivator’s chest with one sword, killing him.
These late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Mu family were originally no match for Qin Yanyang, but they were skilled in dueling and teamwork, thus initially managing to entangle Qin Yanyang.
But little did they expect Yang Fei would suddenly release eight Bloodthirsty Bats?
These Bloodthirsty Bats had combat power comparable to mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators; the most terrifying aspect was their speed. They suddenly darted forward, catching the Mu family cultivators off guard. Just as one dodged an attack from a Bloodthirsty Bat, he got locked onto by Qin Yanyang and killed, unlucky and doomed.
"Woo..."
A Bloodthirsty Bat puppet let out a mournful scream, killed in collaboration by two late-stage Foundation Establishment experts, while another two Bloodthirsty Bats also let out screams, struck by suddenly exploding fire talismans or thunder strikes, severely injured.
The killing and injuring of his refined Spiritual Puppets made Yang Fei feel a pang of heartache.
These Southern Domain cultivators weren’t to be underestimated.
Previously, when on Earth, Earth’s Foundation Establishment cultivators had some difficulty dealing with these Bloodthirsty Bats, but unexpectedly, these late-stage experts from the Mu family could counterattack them in such a short time.
However, with Yang Fei’s sudden release of so many Spiritual Puppets, the Mu family side was caught off guard, dumbfounded on the spot.
Soon, under the cover of the Bloodthirsty Bats, Qin Yanyang killed another Mu family Foundation Establishment cultivator.
In an instant, the remaining Mu family Foundation Establishment cultivators scattered in disarray, terrified to continue entangling Qin Yanyang, quickly fleeing in all directions.
After chasing down one of them, Qin Yanyang didn’t pursue the other four who escaped, heading directly with his sword toward the besieged Mu family’s seventh brother.
Yang Fei also chose not to pursue the four fleeing Mu family Foundation Establishment cultivators. When Qin Yanyang came over, he grabbed Qin Yanyang’s small hand.
The two immediately connected in mind, their mana blending into one; the sensation revitalized them, boosting their confidence.
"Let’s pursue the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass first," Qin Yanyang urged anxiously.
Although the recent fight didn’t consume much time, Han Dachun had escaped using an escape skill, and they didn’t even know the direction to chase, feeling somewhat anxious.
Originally it wasn’t their concern, but for the sake of the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass, they became embroiled with the Mu family. If they didn’t eventually acquire the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass, it would be a great loss.
Yang Fei glanced at Mu family’s seventh brother entangled by the Spiritual Puppet demon beasts, seeing that he couldn’t escape anytime soon, and the Mu family late-stage Core Formation expert was also nowhere to be seen. Concerned that this individual had gone to chase Han Dachun as well, potentially causing the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass to fall into the hands of these two Mu family experts, Yang Fei decisively pulled Qin Yanyang along, utilizing the instant teleportation technique to swiftly pursue the last known location of that Mu family late-stage Core Formation expert.
They chased for over ten miles, sending out their Divine Sense to cover the area, but found nothing, secretly anxious and unsure which direction to pursue.
If they pursued the wrong direction and deviated, they would only get farther away.
Just then, a dazzling golden light suddenly flashed from the distant mountain hollow on the right front.
With no hesitation, Yang Fei pulled Qin Yanyang and quickly instant teleported in that direction.
Now each of his instant teleportations covered a distance of 300 meters. Though not far, with continuous instant teleportation, his movement speed was still faster than flying with the sword or crossing the void with body and mana.
That mountain hollow continuously flashed with golden light and flames, followed closely by sounds, causing Yang Fei to grow more anxious.
Clearly, Han Dachun had already been caught up by Mu family members.
Uncertain if that Mu family late-stage Core Formation expert also caught up, Han Dachun’s situation, facing one against two, might soon lead to defeat.
Fortunately, the distance wasn’t too far, and Yang Fei’s instant teleportation speed was extremely fast, arriving above the final mountain peak in just a few breaths.
Looking down, they saw the narrow valley below in chaos, with Han Dachun being cornered by the two Mu family experts, fighting and fleeing. His treasured talismans seemed to be depleted, his mana greatly consumed, barely relying on an escape technique to flee.
Thud! Thud! Thud!!!
Fireball techniques and thunder strikes constantly rained down, instantly charring and pulverizing large ancient trees.
From top to bottom, three figures moved like lightning, leaving only vague shadows, ravaging and destroying everything in their path. Even boulder-sized rocks were smashed and sent flying in the void. The speed and combat power of Core Formation cultivators were truly terrifying.
"Stop, or I’ll self-destruct, and you’ll never get the Nine Nether Soul Reviving Grass," Han Dachun’s terrified roar erupted.
He was at the end of his rope, unable to last a few more breaths, seeking negotiation.
However, the Mu family experts didn’t give him any respite, aware of Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang’s arrival, wanting to end things swiftly.
Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang appeared without pause, locking onto the movement route of that Mu family late-stage Core Formation expert and instant teleported to intercept.
When they suddenly emerged, it happened to intercept the path of the late-stage Core Formation expert chasing Han Dachun, with less than ten meters between them.
Yang Fei unleashed the Soul Binding Rope, and Qin Yanyang directly slashed with his sword.
The late-stage Core Formation expert was shocked, hastily evading Yang Fei’s Soul Binding Rope and counterattacking with a flying sword towards Qin Yanyang’s sword.
A dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the end of Qin Yanyang’s long sword.
The sword aura instantly expanded to several meters.
"Thud!"
The magic sword was struck by the sword aura, directly rendered useless.
The domineering sword qi smashed into the late-stage Core Formation expert’s protective Gang Qi, instantly shattering it.
"Thud!"
A mouthful of blood spewed out, and the man was directly blasted away.
Yang Fei released Qin Yanyang’s hand, instant teleported and reappeared behind the late-stage Core Formation expert, striking him with the Soul Binding Rope, unleashing the terrifying Soul Capturing power at full strength. The late-stage Core Formation expert’s primordial spirit was instantly extracted from the Sea of Consciousness space...
