Chapter 175 Everything happened as fast as lightning.
That purple sable was probably getting impatient.
It walked to the front of the defensive formation several times, staring intently at the people inside. Then, with hatred in its eyes, it slammed its claw onto the formation, let out a low growl, and ordered the lesser demons to increase their attack power.
It refused to believe that under its intense attacks, the cultivators' array plates wouldn't break, and that the cultivators had enough spirit stones to maintain the array plates!
In fact, no one was worried about the spirit stones at all.
They were getting tired of constantly fighting the monsters.
The purple electric sable darted to the front of the defensive formation again and slapped the formation with its claw.
Just now, it clearly felt that the light on the defensive array had dimmed for a long time.
The Purple Lightning Sable was overjoyed; the cultivators were running out of spirit stones!
Zhong Lingxin and the others also clearly felt the spiritual energy of the defensive array decrease sharply.
When everyone looked up, they saw that Qian Shao had once again exhausted his spiritual energy, and was a tiny bit slow in releasing the spirit stones.
Zhong Lingxin frowned, wanting to replace Qian Shao so that he could rest for a while.
Qian Shao shook his head: "No need, I can still hold on. That Purple Lightning Sable is about to lose its composure, we can't afford to delay now."
Zhong Lingxin and the others understood as well.
Outside the defensive formation, the Purple Lightning Sable slapped at the formation with its claws, one after another.
Under its claws, bolts of lightning struck the defensive array, making it hiss and crackle.
Zhong Lingxin and Zhou Jinting exchanged a glance, one playing the zither and the other shooting an arrow, both attacking the Purple Lightning Sable.
The purple lightning sable raised its paw and drew a semi-circle in front of it, shattering the incoming music and arrows.
Zhong Lingxin smiled.
The purple sable is naturally alert and has a far greater ability to anticipate danger than ordinary people.
But so what? She had been hiding Huanhuan all along.
Huanhuan is perfectly capable of holding it back.
A large number of monsters emerged from the mountains and forests.
Led by several fifth-tier demonic beasts, they once again completely surrounded Zhong Lingxin and her companions.
The purple lightning sable circled the defensive array again and again.
It's getting anxious!
This time, it took a lot of effort to trap several cultivators here.
The Purple Lightning Sable circled the defensive formation again and again, but couldn't find a way to break it. It could only roar a few times to summon the newly arrived demon beasts to join the battle.
Zhong Lingxin watched the purple lightning sable circle around, searching for the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
Zhou Jinting's long arrow was also nocked on his bow, waiting for Zhong Lingxin's command to launch an attack.
The purple electric sable flew around the defensive array with a whooshing sound, faster and faster, its figure becoming increasingly blurry until it finally flew away as an afterimage.
Zhong Lingxin calculated the flying speed of the Purple Lightning Sable, and with a clear, resonant melody, she intercepted the Purple Lightning Sable in front of it, striking it squarely on the head.
Two consecutive zither notes struck, and the Purple Lightning Sable fell to the ground in pain, rolling over.
Zhong Lingxin wasn't about to let it escape. She lashed out with a long whip, wrapping it around the hind leg of the Purple Lightning Sable and pulling it into the defensive formation.
Once inside the formation, the Purple Lightning Sable was about to take flight despite the pain. With a swipe of its front paws, the lightning crackling around its claws struck Zhong Lingxin.
Zhong Lingxin wouldn't give it a chance; she had already trapped it in a trap.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
The trapped sable let out loud howls.
Without hesitation, Zhong Lingxin forced a drop of blood from her fingertip onto the forehead of the purple electric sable.
The purple lightning sable, bound by the contract, slowly calmed down.
Qian Shao hurriedly said, "Don't let these monsters escape, kill them all!"
Zhong Lingxin nodded and simply put the Purple Lightning Sable into her monster bag.
Without further support, every monster killed is one less to be killed.
It took about half a month to kill all nine of them.
Zhou Jinting hugged the longbow to his chest again, his hands trembling as he collapsed to the ground.
"Luckily, Junior Sister Zhong reacted quickly and caught the Purple Lightning Sable. If she had summoned the demon beast, both of my arms would have been useless."
"Who isn't! We don't know how many demonic beasts we've killed, but the rest, when future disciples come to train, should be able to handle them."
"Who knows? We still have to travel for another month, and who knows how many more we'll have to kill?"
"Don't forget, there are also many water demons in this river, which are not easy to deal with."
“The monsters in the river are different from those on land. The monsters in this river are not as powerful as those on land. Let’s clean it up later and get some spiritual herbs from the water.”
Everyone nodded. Just now, during the battle, those river monsters were chewing on spiritual herbs while shooting water arrows at them.
There should still be many medicinal herbs in the river.
And that black fish beast, it's time to reciprocate after fighting them for so long.
Zhao Nan led Guan Lexin and the others back after collecting their spoils, tossing a storage bag in front of each of them: "Here, they're all about the same."
No one spoke; they all accepted the items without even looking at them.
Zhong Lingxin's spiritual energy had almost recovered. She walked to the riverbank, waved, and brought over a large rock, which she then threw into the river.
The stone sank straight to the bottom of the river with a "plop," without splashing any water.
Guan Lexin probed the river with her divine sense and frowned, saying, "The water is very deep. It took me a long time to reach the bottom. There shouldn't be any decent spiritual herbs here anymore. A few days ago, the water beasts gathered here and ruined all the spiritual herbs and plants at the bottom of the river."
Zhong Lingxin's consciousness traveled upstream along the river.
The black fish beast hiding at the bottom of the water was secretly delighted to see the two of them discuss something for a few minutes and then go up.
This time, it was alert and thus survived.
Once the cultivators leave, this middle section will all belong to it.
Zhong Lingxin was thinking about the black fish.
We've been watering their defensive formation for so long, we should at least find it and reward them.
Thinking of this, Zhong Lingxin suddenly threw several explosive talismans into the water.
A huge explosion rang out on the river, and countless small fish and shrimp floated belly up on the surface.
Guan Lexin was startled: "Junior Sister Zhong, what are you doing?"
Zhong Lingxin smiled and said, "Nothing much. I just miss the black fish beast in the river from a few days ago."
Guan Lexin assumed that Zhong Lingxin was holding a grudge against the big black fish, and quickly said, "Junior Sister Zhong, that black fish beast has already run far away. There are many spirit fish and shrimp in this river. We had a barbecue a few days ago, but we didn't have enough fun. Why don't we have another one tonight?"
Zhong Lingxin laughed and said, "Okay, you probably haven't eaten blackfish before. Let me tell you, if you cook it well, blackfish soup is incredibly delicious. Later, you and I will search downstream together and make sure we find this blackfish."
Seeing that Zhong Lingxin was being stubborn, Guan Lexin quickly advised, "Junior Sister Zhong, this blackfish is hiding at the bottom of the water and is not easy to find. Let's not eat it and waste time."
Zhong Lingxin waved out another handful of explosive talismans and laughed, "No trouble at all. These are the explosive talismans my master prepared for me when I entered the ancient battlefield, but I didn't use them then. Now, I need to find the Black Fish Beast. We can't let it attack our formation for nothing."
Guan Lexin understood what Zhong Lingxin was planning. She chimed in, "Junior Sister Zhong is right. I also have some explosive talismans here. As long as this black fish beast obeys, that's fine; if it doesn't, we'll blow it up!"
