Chapter 443: Red-Armored Gale Lion Clan

It was just that Chen Zi Ya didn't have a spirit beast like Chu Yi to provide warnings, so after flying for more than two hours.

Suddenly, seven spiritual artifact flying swords rushed out from the forest below, heading straight for Chen Zi Ya.

The speed was very fast, but fortunately, they were more than a hundred zhang apart, which gave her a little time to react.

And when she was fighting just now, she had been sticking a few defensive spirit talismans on her body, which she activated with a thought.

The thirty-six Purple Crystal Scorpions on her body also turned into streaks of purple light and flew out. At this time, she knew.

She only needed to protect herself well, so she also activated the top-grade defensive spiritual artifact she was holding in her hand and covered herself inside it.

At this time, the flying swords had already reached her. A series of clanging sounds, as the flying swords stabbed onto the defensive spiritual artifact, almost knocked Chen Zi Ya down from mid-air.

Fortunately, during the time she sparred with Lin Zhangqing, she had encountered this situation, and she understood the method to deal with it.

So she was calm in the face of danger, took advantage of the situation to lower her altitude, but didn't land directly, and stood steadily on the flying sword, maintaining a certain altitude.

Also using the forest as cover, she kept shuttling back and forth, trying her best to ensure she wouldn't be easily attacked again.

Very quickly, she heard the exclamation of a male cultivator, followed by a sharp, miserable-to-the-extreme scream.

Then there was a series of flying swords falling to the ground. Chen Zi Ya immediately knew that the cultivator who launched the sneak attack should have been resolved by the Purple Crystal Scorpions.

So she turned around, and after putting away the seven spiritual artifact flying swords on the ground, the Purple Crystal Scorpions had already returned to her side.

However, she still had to go find the place where that cultivator fell, at least to collect her spoils of war.

She also knew the approximate location, so not long after, she found the corpse of that cultivator. After a glance, it was actually a cultivator from the Heavenly Star Sword Sect.

Although the six Qingyun sects had a tendency to join forces, she didn't find it strange at all to be attacked by disciples of the six sects here.

Once inside this secret realm, there was nothing that could restrain these cultivators. The only person she could trust was Lin Zhangqing.

Even if she encountered the other three cultivators participating in the trial from the Chengxia Peak lineage now, she wouldn't dare to trust them, let alone relax her vigilance.

Standing a few dozen zhang away from the corpse, she used her flying sword to add another sword to the cultivator's head.

After confirming he was truly dead, she finally began to collect the spoils of war with peace of mind.

After scanning with her divine sense a few times and finding no omissions, she followed Lin Zhangqing's emphasis on destroying the corpse and erasing traces, and not leaking her own information as a premise, to handle the scene.

After communicating with Lin Zhangqing again, she followed his meaning, put on the Spirit Concealing Mask he had given her before, and then continued on her way.

And Lin Zhangqing, after killing the Ghost Controlling Sect cultivator, didn't dare to delay either and continued to rush rapidly in the direction of Chen Zi Ya.

Saying he didn't think much, in fact, he was secretly anxious inside. Fortunately, not long after, he finally received Chen Zi Ya's sound transmission.

She explained the situation she encountered, and only after she was out of danger did she have time to contact him.

The worst-case scenario that had been emerging in his heart didn't happen, so he was relieved! Only then did he have the leisure to think about other things.

Subsequently, he took out another conch, the one Mu Jiuyin had given him. After injecting mana, he found there was no sound of waves. He knew the other conch was not within ten thousand li, and he didn't know how far apart they were, so Mu Jiuyin could only rely on herself!

After putting away the conch, Lin Zhangqing continued on his way. In fact, in this secret realm, it wasn't just demon beasts.

There must be other resources supporting the cultivation of these demon beasts, otherwise, how could so many second-stage demon beasts maintain their survival! Just like the second-stage peach forest Chen Zi Ya mentioned, in fact, he also wanted it very much. If he couldn't get a whole spirit peach tree, then getting some thicker root systems would be good too!

But he still didn't dare to let Chen Zi Ya take the risk. He himself wasn't confident in dealing with fifty or sixty mid-to-late second-stage demon monkeys.

Let alone Chen Zi Ya, so he would rather give up than let her take risks beyond her ability.

At this time, Lin Zhangqing received Chu Yi's warning again, but it wasn't directed at him; it was telling him that people were fighting ahead.

Lin Zhangqing thought for a moment and decided to go take a look. If they were fighting over some spirit object, then he would be prepared to sit and reap the benefits.

If it was just fighting and killing, then he wouldn't care so much and would just continue on his way! Thus, with a thought, he let Chu Yi fly a little higher to avoid being discovered by others.

Subsequently, he put on the Spirit Concealing Mask and draped the magical treasure light gauze over himself, slowly approaching the place where mana fluctuations were constantly being emitted.

After spending some time sneaking over, he discovered that it was actually disciples from the Corpse Raising Sect and Red Lotus Temple fighting.

The Corpse Raising Sect cultivator, with human and corpse attacking together, was suppressing the Red Lotus Temple Buddhist cultivator. However, the Red Lotus Temple Buddhist cultivator had particularly strong defense, and although he was at a disadvantage, he wouldn't be defeated for a while.

After Lin Zhangqing watched for a while, he wasn't very interested. Two weaklings were pecking at each other, just wasting his time.

He searched around the surroundings again and didn't find any other spirit objects that Lin Zhangqing took a fancy to.

He knew they were just engaging in meaningless fighting, so he had no interest in continuing to accompany them in playing house here.

Thus, he quietly left the scene and continued to rush toward the southeast. The two people still fighting didn't know that they had already walked around the Gate of Ghosts.

Lin Zhangqing flew forward for another two or three hours until Chu Yi sent news that there was a group of demon beasts ahead.

Since Chen Zi Ya didn't have any major danger now, he didn't need to rush so urgently. If he encountered suitable demon beasts, he still had to hunt them.

He lowered his flying sword, approached from the ground, and after observing, discovered that this was a Red-Armored Gale Lion family.

Among them, one male lion was late-second-stage great perfection, and there were four female lions with mid-to-late second-stage cultivation.

The remaining five or six small lions should be their cubs, all with early-to-mid first-stage cultivation.

Lin Zhangqing thought for a moment and decided to take action, but twelve Purple Crystal Scorpions were still too few. Lin Zhangqing simply released the remaining twenty-four.

Subsequently, he didn't approach either. With a thought, thirty-six streaks of purple light pounced directly on the lion pride.

As soon as the Purple Crystal Scorpions took action, the male lion discovered them and roared angrily, reminding all members of the lion pride.

And it opened its mouth to spit out a series of wind blades to attack the Purple Crystal Scorpions. Unfortunately, the Purple Crystal Scorpions were small in size and very fast. With a slight dodge, all the attacks missed.
