Chapter 175 - 28: Halt
On the other side.
"Jasper Pool, this time I don’t want to lose to that big fool." The Empress walked through the air, looking at Jasper Pool who was playing the zither beside her.
She spoke solemnly.
"I must let the master see who is truly the strongest under his command!"
The Empress’ phoenix eyes narrowed. Last time, the first kill of the Tier Six was snatched by the Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable, although it was because of that guy’s special ability.
But it also shows that, in the master’s heart.
The best candidate to handle that Tier Six Flame Demon Earth Dragon was Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable back then.
She had no words against the master’s decision, but now it’s different. After this morning’s massacre, her magic damage has increased to a terrifying level.
If she can’t take first place with this, then she might as well stop being the big sister.
"Found it!"
The Empress’ sight fell into the distance, where a once sandy yellow ground now revealed a lush green.
"Someone is being besieged!"
"Hmm? It’s actually that guy." The Empress squinted her eyes, surprised to encounter a familiar person here.
...
Arrows pierced through the surroundings like torrents, madly attacking the three people in front of them.
"Holy Light Protection!!"
Xiao Jing roared, and centered on him, a shield enveloped the four people in the squad instantly.
’Bang bang bang!’
The shield swayed and trembled wildly.
"Die for me!"
Wang Yun, who was always hidden in the shadows, slashed a dagger across the neck of a Tier Two Wood Elf.
The Wood Elf clutched its neck and instantly fell to the ground.
Wang Yun panted heavily, this Desert Abyss was too difficult.
What the hell was the school thinking, letting second-year students enter the Abyss already.
Wasn’t it always at least close to Tier Three before they entered for the Abyss trial?
"Damn it! I also don’t know how Zhenyuan City is right now, discovered the Abyssal Army moving today, wanted to report back but got stopped!"
"They might be engaged in battle now, even if we went back we couldn’t help much, might as well hunt at this rear." Ni Yutong’s expression was serious.
"Wang Yun, go continue the ambush! At least kill all the Tier Twos in this oasis!"
"Yes!"
Wang Yun nodded, and at this moment, a massive Treant tore through the earth, its aura changing the expression of everyone in the squad.
"Damn, it’s a Tier Three Treant!"
"This oasis is so small, how could there be a Tier Three Treant!"
"Based on the distribution of the oasis, a Tier Three Treant shouldn’t appear here!"
Ni Yutong’s face changed drastically, Desolate God and oasis, the followers of Desolate God rely on their massive body size and strong individual strength.
The oasis, on the other hand, relies on numbers and excellent coordination.
And the size of the oasis often suggests the tier of the Abyssal Creatures within it; it’s impossible for this place to house a Tier Three.
But in the next moment.
A tree branch, like a python, struck with lightning speed, arriving in front of Ni Yutong.
In an instant.
Xiao Jing gritted his teeth and roared, "Divine Judgement!!"
Instantly, a massive hammer forcefully smashed towards the Tier Three Treant, the vines that were about to reach Ni Yutong paused momentarily.
"Block it for me!"
Fang Witch, who was holding a shield, roared and instantly stood in front of Ni Yutong.
"Bang!"
In an instant.
The power of the First Transformation instantly cleared the weapon durability of the shield.
The sound of the weapon shattering rang out as a figure was sent flying, spraying blood in the air, dragging a trail on the ground.
"Fang Witch!! Damn it!!" Ni Yutong shouted.
"Xiao Jing, assist me!!"
Ni Yutong roared, the magic staff in her hand emanating a terrifying mana fluctuation, while Xiao Jing’s longsword fiercely pierced the ground.
"Domain of Holy Judgment!"
A special power bestowed upon Ni Yutong, instantly a giant Fire Phoenix appeared in front of her.
Heat waves surged, and with Xiao Jing’s blessing, the Fire Phoenix was gilded with a layer of gold, flying hundreds of meters in an instant.
The Tier Three Treant wanted to escape, but the support, Ling Xi, had long prepared, mana fluctuations surfaced in her hand, vines appeared beneath the Tier Three Treant.
Forcefully binding its movements.
"Boom!"
The Tier Three Treant hit by the Fire Phoenix Skill instantly turned into a burning torch, while Ni Yutong stood on the ground, panting.
Upon hearing the news of the kill, she exhaled and said, "Dead."
"Is Fang Witch alright?"
Ni Yutong looked at Fang Witch, who was being supported by Ling Xi, but her face was somewhat pale.
"Might need some recovery." Ling Xi’s little hands emitted a green glow, which fell onto Fang Witch.
Xiao Jing frowned tightly, "Should we leave for now! Even if they’re engaged in battle over there, we won’t return, Zhenyuan City would be the target. They won’t find us."
He never thought that the Abyssal Creatures would be so troublesome, it couldn’t help but remind him of when he returned to Shencheng City.
The now radiant South China, top scorer Shen Fei, who could already kill Tier Three Abyssal Creatures in his teens.
Later in the college entrance examination, he could even kill Tier Four Abyssal Creatures.
"I hope he forgets about me." Xiao Jing couldn’t help but smile wryly, he once had a thing for Su Muyu.
Even thought having a boyfriend would be better, fortunately, I didn’t express my thoughts, otherwise, I would be in trouble now.
The same unique profession, but there are differences in unique professions.
Su Muyu’s strength wasn’t just in the profession itself but also in her understanding of it.
"Alright! Thanks, Xiao Jing."
Ni Yutong’s beautiful eyes fell on Xiao Jing, her tone softened significantly.
"Sister Ni, no need for that between us. What kind of relationship do we have!" Xiao Jing collected his thoughts, Ni Yutong was easier to win over.
Besides, the Ni Family behind Ni Yutong was also a major family, providing him with a path after graduation.
Just as their moods relaxed slightly.
A more terrifying aura emerged, as a more massive Treant appeared in the distance, staring at Ni Yutong’s group of five, an angry face surfaced on the tree’s trunk.
"Die!"
In an instant, branches turned into black shadows, simultaneously pounding towards the five.
"Block!!"
Ni Yutong instantly activated the ’Guardian Talisman’ tool, but the sound of shattering erupted, and five figures were sent flying.
In the next moment.
"Tier Five, it’s actually Tier Five!!" Ni Yutong lay on the ground, eyes filled with despair, that was her last trump card.
It could block Tier Four for a while, but it shattered in one hit.
It could only be Tier Five!
The others were filled with despair, especially Xiao Jing, being a unique profession, with a bright future and even a chance to become a Venerable, a King.
But they were about to die in this Abyss!!
The branches controlled by the Tier Five Treant regrouped after being blocked by a hit, forming into an even bigger snake-like branch.
Raised high, targeting all five of them.
’Boom!’
The sonic boom echoed, all five closed their eyes, ready to embrace death, when they heard a cold shout, "Stop!"
