C147 Banished
A few of them were watching the fight with rapt attention as the atmosphere suddenly changed.
"Whoosh!" A huge rock was swept away by the Divine Crocodile's tail and flew towards where the few of them were standing.
"Run!" Ye Feng shouted loudly, his feet launched the Spatial Compression Technique, and he ran like his life depended on it.
Their movements were not slow either. Before the huge rock could land on top of their heads, their bodies had already flown out a few hundred meters.
"Bam!" The huge rock smashed deeply into the ground, creating a huge pit.
"Damn, luckily we managed to escape so quickly. Otherwise, we would have become meat patties." Liu Mang said with fear still lingering in his heart.
"Whoosh!" A string of boulders rained down, sealing off the entire space.
It was obvious that the Divine Crocodile wanted to kill them all. With a Deer Horn Tiger fighting for the spirit medicine, the Divine Crocodile was already on fire. There were even a few human cultivators who were nothing but ants in its eyes, wanting a share of the spoils.
Ye Feng and the others did not dare to hesitate and increased their speed to its limit. They ran towards the distance, and this time, no one dared to stop. They flew over 100 miles before slowing down.
"You ants, it's all because of your luck this time. The next time I meet you, you won't even be left with a single bone." The Divine Crocodile's voice clearly travelled into their ears.
A few people didn't dare to have any thoughts about spiritual medicine. Under Ye Feng's lead, they ran as far as they could.
After leaving this mountain for thousands of miles, the few of them finally stopped. They knew that the Divine Crocodile would not chase after them, so they stopped.
"Damn, it scared me to death." Liu Mang shouted.
"You still dare to say? If it wasn't for you, how could you have met with such danger?" Wu Liang said.
"The two of you are truly enemies. Don't even talk about each other, we're both in the same boat. Next time, if anyone dares to urge our master into a dangerous situation, I better take care of you." Tang Jingtian reprimanded the two, the two of them were not good people, they were closer to treasures than to their fathers.
Hearing Tang Jingtian's reprimand, the two of them shut their mouths and made a face towards each other.
"Hehe, I don't blame the two of them. I also want to deeply reflect on myself. When I heard that there is a treasure, I also felt an itch in my heart. Next time, I must think it through. This kind of situation must be avoided." Ye Feng touched his nose and said embarrassedly.
He was lucky this time around as he did not sustain any injuries. If not for the presence of the Deer Horn Tiger, everyone would have probably become the food of the Divine Crocodile.
Tang Jingtian didn't dare to reprimand Ye Feng, but as the Patriarch of a large clan, Tang Jingtian's methods were various. By reprimanding Liu Mang and Wu Liang, he was also reminding Ye Feng.
Although in the end, he would always return safely, but no one could guarantee that this kind of good luck would continue to persist. As long as he had a little bit of trouble, he would be holding a grudge for the rest of his life.
"Master, there are sounds of fighting from far away. It seems to be human cultivators." Wu Liang's ears were sharper than others', but she could still gather sounds from afar while they were chatting with each other.
This point was something unique to Wu Liang. The two cultivation levels that Wu Liang was most proficient in were stealing stars to pick the moon and using her Wind Catching Ear.
He also wanted to learn from Wu Liang and her Wind Catching Ear cultivation. Unfortunately, this ability required a special physique, and Ye Feng did not meet the requirements so she had no way to cultivate it.
From the sound of it, even if Tang Jingtian was in the peak of Jindan, he still could not be compared on the same level as Wu Liang.
"Boss, let's hurry over and take a look. As long as it's a fight, treasures will definitely appear. If they're not fighting with spirit beasts, then they're fighting with others for treasures. We can't miss that opportunity." Liu Mang's eyes lit up as he urged Ye Feng with all his might.
"Liu Mang, I just said you, and then my old habit broke again." Tang Jingtian's face was displeased, this Liu Mang was born with no desire to see treasures.
Then, Tang Jingtian turned towards Wu Liang and said, "Wu Liang, quickly listen up. Is it between cultivators or between cultivators and spirit beasts, what cultivation level do you think?"
A single sentence had revealed the true nature of Tang Jingtian, and she was someone who couldn't stand to see a treasure.
Ye Feng looked at his three lackeys with satisfaction. They were all people who were born for treasures, and even if he didn't want to fight for them, he wouldn't be able to.
"Too far to judge." Wu Liang listened carefully, and said with furrowed brows.
"Forward!" Ye Feng waved his hand, and the Treasure Seizing Army advanced towards the direction that Wu Liang had pointed to.
The few of them didn't ride their flying swords but flew toward the direction of the battle.
After walking for around twenty li, Liu Mang and Tang Jingtian could vaguely hear sounds. It could be seen how much of a gap there was between them and Wu Liang in this area.
"Boss, it should be a battle between a few cultivators and a few spirit beasts. Aside from the cultivators, there are also occasional roars from spirit beasts." Wu Liang said.
"Boss, go up and take a look. Who knows, there might be some results. Normally, there wouldn't be such a terrifying existence like the big crocodile in this situation. Otherwise, after fighting for so long, the cultivators might still be able to persevere." Liu Mang looked at Ye Feng.
"Mm. Liu Mang's words are very reasonable this time. Why not go take a look?" Tang Jingtian also agreed with Liu Mang's view.
The few of them quickly rushed to the location of the battle.
After running another 20 miles, a few people arrived at the scene of the battle.
A group of gray monkey-shaped spirit beasts surrounded a few cultivators. Not far away, there were a few grey monkeys lying on the ground, including a few cultivators' corpses.
There were about a dozen of these monkeys, jumping up and down, casually throwing the huge rocks on the ground towards the cultivators.
There were less than ten people that could fight against the cultivators that were surrounded in the middle. They faced the monkeys separately and surrounded the injured cultivators behind them.
"This type of spirit beast is called the phoenix. Although its cultivation is not too high, it wins in having a large number of them. The phoenix likes to live in groups, and once they meet an attack, they would attack in groups." Tang Jingtian said.
Ye Feng observed carefully, the cultivation of these phoenix were really not high, it was just similar to a human's aurine stage, and those few human cultivators all possessed aurine stage as well.
If it was a one on one fight, Spirit Beast aurine stage would definitely not be able to beat a human's aurine stage. After all, a human's brain was smarter, and humans had all kinds of magical equipment.
The bodies of spirit beasts were much stronger than humans. If a sword could kill a human cultivator, then the spirit beasts might not necessarily be able to do so.
The few cultivators struggled to hold on. From the looks of the scene, it was only a matter of time before the cultivators were defeated.
"Boss, what should we do? Should we get what we already have or should we do it now?" Liu Mang's eyes rolled. Clearly, he didn't have a good idea in his heart.
"We still don't understand the situation. It's not good for us to rashly make a move." Tang Jingtian was the most experienced among them all, they had just arrived and had not even figured out the situation before taking action, who knew what the others would think.
Of course, Ye Feng would not help. There were many cultivators who came to the Wilderness to search for treasures, so they would have to accept the consequences if they came here. The cultivation world was cold and ruthless.
"AHH!" A human cultivator let out a miserable scream, and was grabbed by a phoenix. One of his legs was ripped off, causing the cultivator to scream in pain.
"Hehehe!" The phoenix that was grabbing him laughed crazily, and let out a voice that sounded almost like a human's voice.
"Let her go!" A cultivator shouted as a cold beam flew towards the phoenix.
Seeing the incoming cold light, the phoenix shook her wrist, causing the cultivator to fly out of the circle, and then threw a slap towards the cold light.
"Clang!" A small bell was sent flying by the phoenix, but the cultivator's attack missed and saved his companion.
"What bad luck!" The cultivator with one of her legs torn off by the phoenix landed at Ye Feng's feet.
At this time, the few of them were less than a thousand meters away from the battlefield. The battlefield was in the midst of an intense battle, and neither side had noticed Ye Feng's group.
"Save me! If you all save us, you will definitely receive a generous reward!" The cultivator that landed at Ye Feng's feet didn't lose consciousness. He looked at Ye Feng and shouted for his life.
"It's just his back." Ye Feng originally did not have the intention to intervene, but now that his figure had leaked out, it was not a good idea to just watch from the sidelines. No matter what, they were all of the same species, so it would be strange if they did not make a move.
Ye Feng stooped down to pick up the cultivator with the broken leg, and casually opened a jade bottle, and smeared the strong and small repair fluid on the wound of the injured cultivator, instantly stopping the bleeding. The wound started to heal, but the cultivator's broken leg could no longer be reattached, it had already been swallowed by the phoenix.
Although Ye Feng had a spiritual medicine that could regenerate severed limbs, he didn't know this cultivator personally, so why would he give such a heaven defying medicine to him?
In the cultivation world, anyone would meet such a person. There were better magical equipment and elixirs that could not be casually brought out. This was a disaster and could very likely bring about unforeseen calamities.
"Fellow Daoists, please save my companions. When the time comes, we will repay them." The cultivator with the broken leg begged Ye Feng.
"Sure, we are all cultivators, how can we just stand by and watch?" Since Ye Feng had already decided to make a move, of course he would speak.
"Fuck, we got rid of those damn monkeys. They dare to bully a human cultivator, they really are tigers without monkeys calling themselves kings." Liu Mang clamored, but didn't immediately attack. He was waiting for Ye Feng's order.
The cultivators that were surrounded saw that a cultivator had appeared, all of them became alert, and the treasures in their hands flew up and down. For a moment, they unexpectedly grasped the initiative and counterattacked the phoenix.
The phoenix, on the other hand, did not care at all. In their eyes, it was just four more people, which was equivalent to adding a few more people to their side.
The phoenix's side even revealed a greedy gaze. They already treated Ye Feng and the others as food in their mouths.
"Go all out, get rid of these phoenix." Ye Feng gave the order.
Liu Mang and the other two understood what he meant. Ye Feng said that he was going all out to have them conserve some strength when they attacked, so they wouldn't use all of their cultivation. This was a secret signal between the few of them.
If Ye Feng didn't say anything and just waved his hand, then he would really go all out.
The three of them let out an "Ao" sound and joined the battle.
With these three people, the situation would be better. At least, it would no longer be a situation where they were suppressed.
These phoenix were not like human cultivators. They were even more berserk than human cultivators, and they simply did not understand any fear. Even if they could not kill one, they would still resist.
"Fellow Daoist, why don't you help out? One more person gives you an extra bit of strength." The cultivator with the broken leg anxiously said.
Ye Feng turned his head to look at the cultivator with a broken leg and knew that he was seeing his partner suffering. This was understandable, "My cultivation level is not high, going up would be suicide."
The cultivator with the broken leg didn't look closely at Ye Feng's cultivation level earlier. After hearing Ye Feng say this, he carefully looked. Seeing that Ye Feng was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, his face blushed and he knew he said the wrong thing.
At this time, a phoenix suddenly broke away from the group and rushed towards Ye Feng.
The cultivator with the broken leg was shocked. He had lost one of his legs, so he couldn't use half of his cultivation. This little cultivator's cultivation was too low; it was too dangerous!
