Looking at the many crying children in front of her and their parents holding kitchen knives on poles behind them, Qi Shanshan frowned and felt very complicated.
"Senior Sister Shanshan, why do you think these mortals are not even afraid of monsters and beasts, insist on following them, but dare not overthrow those government officials and take back their children?"
Hou Jin couldn't understand the situation in front of him. After all, if it were him, he would have slashed him with a sword.
Seeing that Qi Shanshan did not respond, Qin Li turned to look at Ying Ming beside him and asked with the same confusion:
"Uncle Ying, do you know?"
"Although I don't know, I guess if those government officials are touched, something more terrifying than death will happen to them."
As a psychic puppet, Ying Ming has a very pure mind. How can she understand the thoughts of the human race? After guessing something, she suddenly smiled and continued:
"It seems they are going to imprison these young children in the abandoned temple. You three go in first to ambush them. I won't follow them. Be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Ming turned into a ray of pink light and disappeared into the trunk of a big tree, disappearing without a trace.
"Ah! It's wood escape! Is Uncle Sakura so powerful?!"
Hou Jin stared and said in shock.
Even if a foundation-building monk can master the simplest earth escape technique, he is enough to dominate his peers. Wood escape technique is simply unimaginable.
The three of them were startled and at the same time they felt much calmer. After all, with the Wood Escape Technique as a foundation, they would probably be able to escape even if they encountered the worst situation.
"Okay, this is Master Ying's attempt to appease us. We can't delay any longer. Let's go!"
Qi Shanshan gave an order, and the three of them jumped into the ruined temple at the same time. After a moment, their breaths were covered by the talismans.
In the sky, Jiang Tieshan pulled at the edge of the spirit boat, stretched his head and kept looking at Awang.
Then, either because he lost his patience or because he saw his eldest brother, he suddenly said to Luo Hong with some dissatisfaction:
"Chang Luo, why don't we go down?"
"Luo knows very well that your family will be fine, just keep an eye on it here.
Haha, is the feeling of being in the atmosphere so interesting?"
I don't know what Luo Hong thought of, but he chuckled inexplicably and said something Jiang Tieshan couldn't understand at all.
The sun sets and the moon rises, and it's midnight in the blink of an eye.
In the abandoned temple, the officials had already left, fifty pairs of boys and girls were left behind, and more than two hundred mortals were guarding the outside of the wall against the cold wind.
Just when everyone was doubting that the monster would not come tonight, a fierce wind blew up and blew out all the torches prepared by everyone. Only a bonfire in front of the temple kept the light.
At the moment of chaos, a muffled sound of "dong" came, and everyone felt the ground shake, and they all looked toward the bonfire.
The flickering firelight reflected a terrifying monster with a shoulder height of one foot. Its huge head, like a blue lion, raised slightly, and then it opened its bloody mouth and roared wildly.
The huge sound wave directly flew away the townspeople within ten feet. The ferocious power of the monster made many people so frightened that their livers and gallbladders burst into tears. They cried for their fathers and mothers and forgot what they were here to do.
Fortunately, this monster didn't seem to be interested in the townspeople outside the temple. It didn't even look at the few townspeople who had the courage to come with carrying poles and jumped into the abandoned temple.
"Oh no!"
"The monster went in to eat the child!"
"Stop being stunned and fight this beast!"
After shouting, dozens of townspeople finally rushed into the main hall of the ruined temple. With the candlelight in the main hall, they immediately saw the monster's full appearance.
It has a blue lion head, but its body is like a long snake, covered with thick scales, its four giant claws are webbed, and its tail is burning with green demonic fire.
When the young children in the main hall saw such a terrifying monster rushing in, they were so frightened that they huddled together and screamed.
At this critical moment, three flying swords of different colors suddenly shot out from three directions, attacking the lion-headed demon's eyebrows, waist and back yard respectively!
At the same time, the three talents sword array arranged in advance was activated, and three light pillars were seen rising into the sky from three different directions, connecting to each other to form a light curtain, trapping the lion-headed demon within it.
Being attacked suddenly, the lion-headed demon showed no fear at all. He breathed out a gust of wind at the oncoming flying sword, and flicked his tail to stir up a wave of blue fire.
But he ignored the flying sword attacking his waist.
In an instant, the flying sword in the front was blown away by the strong wind, and the flying sword in the rear did not dare to touch the blue fire wave at all.
The flying sword in the middle struck the lion-headed demon's waist without any hindrance, but it did not cut through the opponent's thick scales.
"It's the third-level Siren Lion Dragon Beast! Use the formation to attack together!"
Qi Shanshan tested the strength of the lion-headed demon with one move. Although the opponent was a third-level monster with some dragon blood, the three of them were also leaders of the same generation, and they also had formations to help them, so they were not without the strength to fight.
The eighty-one sword techniques of Wanjian Sect come from the same ancient sect, and the power of the combined attack is much stronger than normal.
In addition to the dangers faced by the three of them in the first dozen rounds, as time went by, the lion dragon beast's attack power declined.
But once it could not be suppressed by force, the spiritual shortcomings of the lion dragon beast were exposed, and the balance of victory and defeat gradually began to tilt towards Qi Shanshan and the others.
"Don't let down your guard, or this beast will bite you when it's about to die!"
Qi Shanshan warned with a pale face while using the flying sword.
The three of them have been fighting until now, and they have very little mana left, so there is no room for any mistakes.
Just as the three of them were gritting their teeth and holding on, a bloody stream of light suddenly flew in from outside the palace door and immediately fell on the lion dragon beast.
When the spiritual light dissipated, a bloody talisman was seen stuck on the back of the lion dragon beast's head.
As soon as Qin Li saw the talisman clearly, he was horrified and shouted loudly:
"It's a bloodthirsty talisman! Kill this monster quickly!"
Once the bloodthirsty talisman is activated, the lion dragon beast will immediately go crazy, and its strength will increase by 30 to 40%. It is definitely not something that a few of them can stop.
However, the appearance of the talisman proves that the lion dragon beast is not a wild monster, but a spiritual beast controlled by the monks. It will naturally guard against the three people's attack.
So even though the three people reacted extremely quickly, they could only watch helplessly as the blood covered the lion dragon beast's body.
"What should I do, senior sister!"
"Delay it for ten breaths and I will kill it!"
Hou Jin and Qin Li looked at each other, and then nodded sharply in agreement. One took out three talismans and threw them on the flying sword with a look of pain on his face. The other spit out a fiery snake from his mouth, and asked him to wrap it up with a pale face.
Flying sword.
At this moment, outside the ruined temple, on the barren mountain, Ying Ming was confronting a big-eared monk with a relaxed expression.
"Fellow Taoist, why don't you hurry up and help your nephew? Once he is stimulated by the bloodthirsty talisman, the dragon bloodline of the lion dragon beast will greatly increase his magical power. It is definitely not something that three juniors in the Qi refining stage can compete with."
The big-eared male cultivator frowned and looked at Ying Mingdao with some doubts.
Originally, when he saw that there were immortal cultivators involved, he couldn't help but think of his senior brother's previous warning and was ready to give up on the matter here.
But at this moment, the big-eared male cultivator suddenly discovered that a female cultivator who was in the middle stage of foundation building had unexpectedly arrived ten feet in front of him.
Although this woman's cultivation level is not high, her aura is extremely strange.
When the big-eared male cultivator didn't look at her, his spiritual consciousness couldn't sense the other person's existence at all. But when he looked at her, he could sense the mana aura equivalent to the middle stage of foundation building.
