C69 Union
The moment they thought of this, the four of them found a way out.
This was the hope of life, the change in blood forest was a fact, they could not doubt it at all. Facing the pursuit of the powerful demon beasts and the thirty-eight disciples, all they could do was to unite the disciples. One had to know that the number of disciples that had entered this time was close to six hundred.
If so many people were to join together, even if most of their strength would be in the Dao Accomplishment Realm or Dao Resisting Realm, a level five demon beast would still be killed, so the thirty-eight generations of disciples would have to avoid them.
What first place, what trade for items with contribution points? Those were all bullshit, and only surviving was the biggest goal.
"Let's go, contact more people."
The Xiao Zhi said, at the same time he decided that as long as there were enough people, he would gather more elemental energy stone. His defense was still sky-curtain formation, and at the same time, he had to set up several 'Gossypium hirsutum Maxim' formations.
As long as they had protection, and a backup, the others might agree to join hands.
But elemental energy stone s were too precious, and only the Xiao Zhi did not think much of them before. For example, Liang Li, Zhang Ling and the others, almost none of them had such a thing. This was because it could not be measured with ordinary money. It was a type of currency that was even more valuable and exclusive to cultivators.
The four of them carefully searched for other disciples within the blood forest. However, they only searched ten kilometers around the border, as they did not dare to trespass. That baleful thunder beast was still fresh in their minds; it was truly too powerful. At the same time, it also made the Xiao Zhi wonder if the sky-curtain formation could defend against it.
"Roar!"
A grade three demon beast, the Magpie Leopard, had appeared. This type of demon beast had the shape of a leopard, but its head had the feeling of a magpie. It was extremely strange, and would really make people suspect that it was a combination of a magpie and a leopard.
However, level three beasts were not a problem at all for the four of them. If he went up there, he would be beaten up, and he would be killed on the spot. Level three demon beasts didn't have much value. They could be said to be the equivalent of ordinary wild beasts, and could be roasted and eaten.
Even after half a day, all the way until the afternoon, the four of them could not find any other disciples. After all, the blood forest was simply too vast, and everyone had entered from the outskirts. After a day or so, many people had already run off to who knows where.
"What a headache."
Xiao Zhi sighed, he waved the tree branch in his hand, which had a piece of scarlet flesh strung on it, and was unceasingly roasting it. The others were the same as well. It was a rank 3 Monstrous Beast called the Flying Rabbit, and it was not something normal wild rabbits could compare to. The Flying Rabbit's jumping ability was extremely strong, reaching over ten feet high, and it could glide in the air. But right now, it was just the food that Xiao Zhi was talking about.
"Where did all these people go?"
After all, there were five or six hundred people here. Although he had seen some of their corpses, they were only a few after all. Could it be that all of them were eaten by the demonic beasts?
This point was not impossible. After all, the blood forest was different from before.
"They should all have chosen a relatively safe place."
Xiao Zhi thought that way. Even they had the same thought before. Find a relatively safe place first and try to survive for a month.
"As long as we can find a portion of them, we can attract more." Wu Bupang said, they were impatient, after all, the blood forest was not a place for humans. Although it hadn't even been two days, it was too dangerous.
The first night, they encountered the treacherous and cunning gale wolf, as well as a pack of wolves. Soon after, they were almost killed by the Blood Demon Tree, and they also encountered a baleful thunder beast.
"Let's talk after you've eaten your fill."
Xiao Zhi brought the grilled meat to his mouth and took a bite. The taste was not bad.
"Pfft, it tastes so bad." Wu Bupang took a bite and immediately spat it out, frowning: "Let's just eat the snacks that I brought." As he spoke, he took out many exquisite snacks.
"Is it bad? I feel that it's not bad. "
Xiao Zhi did not understand, if it was something bad, he would have to eat too much. Although this roast meat was just casually roasted, it was still much better than what Old Man Tian Yun cooked all those years ago. Liang Bu and Wu Bupang curled their lips at the same time, but Zhang Ling did not say a word and calmly ate it.
"Only by eating meat can I better maintain my stamina."
The Xiao Zhi then looked at the two of them seriously, "This is the blood forest, not a quiet place like the Heaven Gate, nor is it your hometown. "Could it be that you want to run into a situation where you are physically weak when in danger?"
Physical strength was very important. In such a dangerous place, one had to always be full of energy. Although snacks could reach the level of being 'full', they wouldn't be able to last as long as meat.
The two of them were startled. They looked at each other and nodded. Then, they put down the dim sum and started eating the horrible roasted meat again. However, the process of eating was like being tortured.
In next to no time, the few of them finished their meal.
Xiao Zhi sat alone at the side with his eyes closed.
The other three did not make any sound to disturb him, as they were also thinking about the recent and upcoming events.
"Let's go, we have to find a group of people before nightfall."
An hour later, Xiao Zhi suddenly jumped up and looked in one direction at the same time. He had a feeling that there was someone there.
The three of them did not speak any further, and followed Gao Zhi in his movements.
Crack crack crack.
Trees were being cut down, and waves of energy were being sent out in all directions.
Two girls and a youth blocked the attack of a young man at the same time. The battle between the two was extremely intense, to the point of not giving up until one party died.
"Demonic Phantom Strike."
One of them, a petite girl, jumped up violently. Behind her, a group of demons and ghosts danced behind her, emitting a dense gloomy aura. His attacks were unparalleled and extremely fierce.
"Sky Splitting Cloud Slash!"
The youth's body swayed as he swung a long and thin blade in his hand. Behind him was a strange beast that looked down at him. It was called the Sky Cracking Beast.
"Chilling!"
Another young girl also shouted out, as an endless ice-cold aura enveloped the area in front of them.
"Haha, interesting. Among the younger generation, you two are pretty good."
Seeing this, the young man who was fighting showed no fear. Instead, he began to laugh out loud. Next, his Dao Diagram appeared. It depicted a mastiff, as mighty and domineering as a lion.
The young man roared, causing everyone's minds to tremble. He then took out a heavy sword, and with just a casual wave of his sword, it caused the air around him to crack and emit concentrated sounds of explosions. The sword was as fierce as the tide as it struck out, meeting the combined attack of the three people.
"Bam!"
A series of sounds rang out, and the three of them fell back, their faces pale. They knew that they were no match for the old man.
"Although I was not among the top ten disciples back then, I do not feel that I am inferior to them."
The youth was indifferent. His eyes flashed with a trace of disdain as he pointed his heavy sword at the three of them. "I'll take your contribution points. I'll also take your lives."
"That depends on if you have the ability."
The petite girl coldly snorted, unwilling to be outdone.
"Arrogant. We'll start with you then."
The youth smiled indifferently as he stomped his feet. Swift as a gale wind, the heavy sword brought with it a savage aura that enveloped him, making it impossible to dodge. Seeing this, the other two hurriedly attacked each other to save their comrades.
Unexpectedly, the youth's sword energy suddenly changed, directly abandoning the girl in front and directly sweeping towards the direction the youth was pouncing towards. His speed was so fast that no one was able to react. The young man was greatly shocked, but it was already too late. The heavy sword directly hacked down on his chest, and if he hadn't missed by a sliver in the face of danger, his entire body would have probably been hacked in half.
But even so, his face was still pale and there was a hideous wound on his chest that no one could bear to look at.
"Too weak."
The youth disdainfully smiled and said, "Rather than calling it training, it would be better to say that it is to let our current generation of disciples enjoy the pleasure of slaughter."
Hearing this, the three of them quietly gathered together and cautiously looked at each other. With regards to this, the youth acted as if he didn't see it at all. He lightly raised the heavy sword in his hand, bringing about an afterimage as he prepared to attack again.
"Pleasure? I think you're wrong, it should be the pleasure of us killing you all. "
At the same time, four figures jumped down from the surrounding tree stem and stood in front of the three people from before.
"Hmm?"
The young man's eyes narrowed as he looked at each of them and carefully observed them.
"Xiao Zhi!"
The injured youth was surprised. At the same time, he felt relieved. The other two girls also felt the same.
"I didn't expect that the first group of people would be you guys."
The ones who had just arrived were naturally the four from Xiao Zhi. After glancing at the other party for a moment, they couldn't help but laugh. The three of them could be said to be the strongest in the Leisurely Heart Palace, Zhu Chaoyun, Gong Xuee, and Dian Xiaole.
"Hey, eldest senior brother, when we get out of here alive, don't forget to treat us to a meal and a drink."
Wu Bupang called out, making Zhu Chaoyun speechless. Gong Xuee only smiled slightly, but Dian Xiaole glared at him instead.
"It's just a few more people, do you really think …"
That youth was disdainful and fearless. He was a disciple of the thirty-eight disciples and had entered the sect much earlier than these people. Moreover, his age was still there, so he had cultivated for many more years.
"Is that so?"
The Xiao Zhi smiled and suddenly said: "Little Fatty, turn into a pig."
"What?!" It's all of you! "
Unexpectedly, the young man was shocked, a look of understanding flashed past his eyes, and when he saw the appearance of Wu Bupang's dao diagram, he immediately retreated, and quickly disappeared into the dense forest. Evidently, when Wu Bupang's dao diagram turned into Elder Zhao Liangyi's pig at that time, it was found out by many people.
If he was truly transformed, even in the time it took to take a single breath, he could be chopped into mincemeat in the face of seven people.
"I'm this strong?"
Wu Bupang cried out happily, "Those who do not fight, directly retreat in fear."
"Alright, then the next time we meet up with you, just rush up and escape." Liang Kui splashed a bucket of cold water on his head, causing Wu Bupang's smile to freeze as he coughed dryly.
"Why did you come?"
Zhu Chaoyun took out the sixth grade medicinal pellet, the Hundred Herbs Pill, and applied it on the inside.
"To survive."
Xiao Zhi carefully sized up the three people. Although they were more or less injured, they were not really injured.
"Live?" The three of them were puzzled.
Seeing that, the four Xiao Zhi s all smiled, their team now consisted of seven people, the average thirty-eight generation disciple did not dare to act rashly.
