Chapter 261: Danger Approaches!

~8 min read 1,472 words

A person stepped out from the group of half-beasts; except for black hair on their chest, the rest of their body had transformed into human form.

They were about two meters tall, their entire face chubby like a pig's head, looking quite imposing, with especially thick hair:

"They have a puppet array, plus lethal moves, and they have also taken some kind of medicinal pill, so the demonic beasts cannot attack them."

"We should, on one hand, follow them closely, and on the other, communicate with the leaders among our demonic beasts who have gained intelligence, explain the stakes to them, and let them attack; then we can mix in behind and ambush them. We must take these people down!"

As soon as these words were spoken, a half-beast immediately came out to object: "There are so many of these demonic beasts; I just observed them, and there is no one controlling them at all. They came here on their own instinct."

"So your theory doesn't hold water at all!"

The pig-headed half-beast shook their head vigorously: "You are wrong. They must have received commands from someone; otherwise, it would be impossible for them to come over and attack on their own."

"You should have noticed that there are many demonic beasts in this Yaoshou Senlin, and they are divided into different herds to attack different groups of people. There must be someone commanding them from behind."

"Actually, if the hundred or so of us attack together without fear of death, these twenty or so people are no match for us at all."

"It is just that you are all unwilling to charge and fight to the death, which is why we feel fear."

"Under these circumstances, we must utilize the demonic beasts to charge, and we can only kill these people if we sneak attack from within."

"The fact that they withdrew their array and fled shows that they can no longer hold on, and their Spirit Stones are too depleted to resist us."

The sheep-headed half-beast who had just spoken in rebuttal immediately said: "Your speculation is very reasonable, but I still haven't found..."

Before the words were finished, they shut their mouth.

A rumbling sound came from behind; the herd of demonic beasts that had just retreated was coming back, and their target was precisely Lu Tianyu and the others.

The pig-headed half-beast revealed an anthropomorphic smile on their face: "Look, was I right or not?"

"Now we have a chance. Their leader has given the order, and they are coming again."

"Leave the communication with their leader to me. As long as we take down these twenty or so people, we can continue to cooperate to kill more teams and kill all the students selected by the Changheng Academy!"

The sheep-headed half-beast spoke again: "Even if you can communicate with them, they are from the Yaoshou Senlin and are our enemies. Aren't you afraid they will take advantage of us when we aren't looking and charge at us?"

The pig-headed one shook their head: "That possibility is very high."

"However, they haven't done so yet, so there must be a reason we don't know about. I will know as soon as I ask."

"We are currently in extreme danger in the Yaoshou Senlin. We can look for a suitable hiding place while we move, and if the situation goes wrong, we will cooperate to retreat immediately."

"The people from the Changheng Academy are not familiar with the forest environment and are not fast. Once we wipe them out, we will go to the hiding place."

The sheep-headed half-beast finally nodded: "That is feasible, but this place is all dense forest; there is nowhere to hide."

The pig-headed half-beast grunted a few times: "Not far ahead is a mountain peak. There are many wild beasts here, so there must be caves. Why worry about not finding a place to hide?"

The sheep-headed half-beast was slightly startled: "It seems you know a lot about this place. Let's do as you say. I wonder if everyone has any suggestions?"

Most of the half-beasts nodded, expressing their agreement.

Meanwhile, on Lu Tianyu's side, Xing Jiangyi saw the herd of demonic beasts and shouted again: "Oh no, they are chasing us again."

Lu Tianyu also frowned tightly: "Hurry and go. Not far ahead is a mountain peak; that place is advantageous for us!"

Xing Jiangyi said in terror: "Then let's hurry!"

Somewhere in the Yaoshou Senlin.

The sounds of battle shook the sky, accompanied by the roars of demonic beasts and the screams of humans.

A Great Array with a diameter of ten zhang shrouded an area, and seven stars flickered unsteadily above the array.

There were more than 130 people in the array, sometimes going out to charge and fight, and sometimes retreating back.

The advantages of the Seven-Star Immortal-Trapping Array were displayed to the fullest at this moment; they could enter and exit at will, while those demonic beasts could not charge in.

The students of the Changheng Academy were also fighting hard to earn points, charging out from time to time to kill a few demonic beasts, then quickly retreating back.

Due to the large number of demonic beasts and the sneak attacks by the half-beasts, they occasionally suffered casualties, though not many.

And at this moment, Gong Mochen, who was presiding over the Seven-Star Array, was in extreme pain. He gritted his teeth: "Lu Tianyu, you deserve to die!"

The surrounding demonic beasts were endless, and the consumption of Spirit Stones was very severe. He immediately thought of the Spirit Stones and some precious materials in his Storage Ring that had all been taken away by Lu Tianyu.

But fortunately, Lu Tianyu had not taken their Seven-Star Array's array disk.

If the array disk had been taken, they would have been too late to cry and could only wait for death.

Fortunately, there were many people here, and they had pooled together quite a few Spirit Stones.

However, things could not go on like this.

The demonic beasts were endless; if they kept killing, the Spirit Stones would definitely be exhausted.

When that time came, they would inevitably be worn down to death here.

Until now, Gong Mochen had endured and endured, just to let people see the impregnability of the Seven-Star Trapping Array.

After nearly an hour passed like this, he finally couldn't hold back anymore: "Everyone, if we continue to consume like this, our Spirit Stones will be exhausted and the array will naturally break. We must make plans as soon as possible."

"If anyone has a good method, you might as well speak up and let us hear it!"

The cultivators here were not fools; they had seen it long ago but just hadn't said anything, waiting for Gong Mochen and the others to speak.

As soon as these words were spoken, someone immediately said: "Let us fight while retreating and look for a place that is easy to defend and hard to attack."

"I once studied the map of the Yaoshou Senlin. There are quite a few hilly areas here, and the further in you go, the more mountain peaks there are. We can find a place that is easy to defend and hard to attack, and the consumption will be less."

"Yes, yes, there are some mountain passes in the mountains. We can find a favorable terrain and take turns defending; this can greatly reduce the consumption of Spirit Stones and physical strength."

Xiang Daxiong of the Profound Dao Sect suggested: "I have heard that the Seven-Star Trapping Array can also attack. We might as well tear an opening in the sky and call for help from the Law Enforcement Team."

"If we go on like this, even if we retreat to a place that is easy to defend and hard to attack, the Spirit Stones will still be exhausted."

Gong Mochen shook his head with a bitter smile: "I'm afraid that won't work."

"The Seven-Star Immortal-Trapping Array can be converted into an attack array, but I just tried it, and it seems to be bound by some force here; I cannot convert it at all."

"You all know that this Yaoshou Senlin has been intentionally set with restrictions, and we can only engage in small skirmishes."

He had just tried it, and the conversion could not be completed, but he hadn't said so, fearing it would cause panic.

However, it still couldn't be hidden, and someone pointed it out.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Many people thought about holding on a little longer to hunt more demonic beasts, rather than just defending passively.

After all, they were currently in the selection stage, and although it was a special situation, going out would not earn them any rewards.
