“Bang!”
A beam of light hit the Demon Moon Spider. Although it did not cause any harm,but it slowed it down. Zhou Liang noticed it, and quickly moved aside.
The wind was violent, and he felt that the Spirit Beast’s huge claws whistle by his ears. If it was not blocked by the beam of light, it would’ve been a terrible disaster.
“Thank you Fellow Daoist!”
Zhou Liang reveals a grateful expression, Lin Xuan smiled and shook his head. Zhou Liang is unlike Ma Jin and Huang Jing. He should really be a Rogue Cultivator who actually came here to hunt. Since it’s a matter of little effort, Lin Xuan does not mind saving him. Moreover, this person may be a good helper for the foreseeable future.
“Be careful, this is one of the powers of the Demon Moon Spider, Fast Movement!”
Even without Huang Zhong’s reminder, Lin Xuan and others also felt that this trick was not easy to deal with. Once it was close, it was easy to be killed. Immediately, everyone released their Spiritual Qi Barriers, and Lin Xuan’s body was covered with a layer of pale blue light.
In this way, even if he accidentally got close to the Spirit Beast, he believed that with the sturdiness of his Barrier, it could block it for a while. Which will give him the opportunity to escape.
Without worries, the four people very tacitly manipulated their Spirit Tool to contain the Moon Magic Spider, this Spirit Beast’s strength is equivalent to a foundation establishment Stage Great Perfection cultivator, if not with the help of the formation, it certainly would’ve been difficult to kill it.
Although the Demon Moon Spider is fierce, but its intelligence cannot be compared with human beings, with several people joining forces, it instinctively chooses to avoid its sharp edge and was eventually driven into the direction of the Formation.
Uha…
A low voice came into his ears, and then the direction of the cave entrance was seen. Huang Zhong’s face was full of Happiness. He quickly said: “Attention Fellow Daoists, the Demon Moon Spider has stepped into the Five Tigers and Flock of Sheep Formation. Everyone follows the method I just mentioned. Input your Spirit Power into the formation flag to trap it. “
“Alright!”
Zhou Liang did not hesitate, immediately waved the formation flag in his hand, Ma Jin also did the same, Huang Zhong frowned slightly, and talked to Lin Xuan with dissatisfaction: “Fellow Daoist Lin, what’s wrong, do it quickly. Otherwise, there will be a flaw in this formation, and we won’t be able to trap the Demon Moon Spider.”
Holding the formation flag in a daze, Lin Xuan seemed to have just woken up. He nodded embarrassedly, and then gently waved the formation flag in his hand.
His weird behavior made Huang Zhong feel a sense of uneasiness in his heart. Did this kid discover…
However, seeing that Lin Xuan began to inject Spiritual Qi into the flag. He put down the big stone in his heart. The top priority is to control the Spirit Beast.
Rumble!
A fog burst into the air, and there were continuous explosions like thunder. Lin Xuan released his Spiritual Sense and saw that in the middle of the big formation. The Demon Moon Spirit was rushing left and right with blood-red eyes.
From the Formation, some balls of light flew from time to time, but the Level-2 Top-Level Spirit Beast is no trivial creature. The Demon Moon Spider is also famous for its thick skin and hard muscles, which make it hard to hurt. It can be pretty time-consuming to kill this cockroach, it’s purely delusional wanting it to die from just this.
Being hit with continuous blows. Instead, it aroused the viciousness of the Spirit Beast. The Demon Moon Spider screamed angrily and suddenly stopped. The golden stripes on the back, abdomen, and claws began to glow at the same time, and its presence began to skyrocket.
The several cultivators looked at each other, their expressions sullen.
Although it is not clear what tricks the Spirit Beast is going to use. But looking at this situation. They know that it’s no trivial matter.
“Fellow Daoists, I’m afraid that the Five Tigers and the Flock of Sheep would not be able to trap this Spirit Beast. We need to work together.”
“Alright!”
The three men nodded immediately, if the Demon Moon Spider broke out of the formation, it would not cost them much more.
“Everyone listen to my command.”
After Huang Zhong finished, he threw the red formation flag in his hand into the sky. And did an incantation gesture: “Fellow Daoists. Quickly Inject twice the amount of Spiritual Qi into the formation. “
Lin Xuan, Zhou Liang, and Ma Jin did not dare neglect, and immediately as he said it, they circulated their Spiritual Qi and injected it into the Formation.
Suddenly, the Five Tigers and the Flock of Sheep Formation shined brightly. From the inside, countless black silk threads were shot out, intertwining into ropes, and wrapping around the Demon Moon Spider.
Huang Zhong waved one hand and shouted: “Open!”
The Formation separates and a passage appears, Huang Zhong then claps his hands and moves forward. His Spirit Tool suddenly turns into a black Light, rushing towards the Spirit Beast.
With a banging sound, such as hitting stone, a black light with a golden tint appeared around the Demon Moon Spider’s body.
A Spirit Barrier!
The faces of several people suddenly sank. The Level-2 Top Grade Spirit Beast really deserves its reputation. He didn’t expect it to even be able to use a Barrier. It seems that if they want to kill it, they’d have to exert much more effort.
The Demon Moon Spider was naturally unwilling to be entangled by those black silk threads and struggled desperately, but under the full suppression of the three Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, it wouldn’t be able to break out for a while.
Huang Zhong continued to control the ghost knife, and once again, it moved towards it, and the situation temporarily fell into a stalemate.
“Brother Huang, please hurry up, we can’t maintain this situation, the depletion of Spirit Qi is too fast.” After a while, the faces of three people who presided over the Formation became pale, and Zhou Liang could not help but urge him to hurry up.
“This old man understands, please stick to it for a little more!”
The voice of Huang Zhong came out, and when he saw that the fog in the Formation was surging even more powerfully as if a very fierce battle was going on inside.
It took a full quarter of an hour.
Accompanied by a long and stern cry, the inside suddenly became very quiet. After a while, the fog dispersed, and Huang Zhong’s figure was proudly displayed, next to him lay the body of the Demon Moon Spider.
Zhou Liang sighed with relief, and they spent a lot of effort to finally kill the Spirit Beast. After the materials on its body are sold, they should be able to exchange it for a large amount of Spirit Stones. Although it would be divided equally, it’s still a quite considerable sum.
For the next few years, he shouldn’t have to worry about the cost of cultivation. Zhou Liang thought, and then he suddenly felt that his body’s Spiritual Qi was still leaking out. He was startled at first, then did an incantation gesture wanting it to stop.
However, it was useless. The Spirit Beast was already dead, but the ‘Five Tigers and Flock of Sheep’ Formation was still absorbing his Spiritual Qi.
Zhou Liang was shocked and angry. He wanted to throw away the formation flag. But something surprising happened. The flag seemed to be stuck on his hand, and he couldn’t shake it off. It continued to absorb his Spiritual Qi.
“Fellow Daoist Huang, what’s going on?” Zhou Liang was not an idiot. A trace of anxiety flashed across his face: “Is there a problem with the formation?”
“Hehe, this old man’s Formation has of course nothing wrong, but I just want both of your lives.” Huang Zhong suddenly changed his amiable tone and smiled, showing his hideous expression.
“Yeah, two fewer people to divide the Spirit Stones, and the both of you must have lots of treasures.” Ma Jin also sneered.
“You…are you two in cahoots? “
“Oh, the two of us are lone thieves, who specialize in robbing you Rogue Cultivators.” Huang Zhong said proudly. This time, we killed two birds with one stone. The Five Tigers and Flock of Sheep Formation can trap Spirit Beasts, but the formation flags we gave you both are fake. Once you inject Spiritual Qi into it, you won’t be able to stop. Until you’re completely drained of Spiritual Qi.
Since the two of you have stepped into the trap, it’s extremely difficult to get out.
Huang Zhong triumphantly admired Zhou Liang’s anxious expression. However, when he turned his head, he found that Lin Xuan, who was also trapped by the Formation, was only being gloomy and silent. His heart suddenly flashed with a bad premonition, he sternly said: “No more nonsense, let’s take their lives first.”
Before he finished his words, the ghost knife was already released from his hand, Ma Jin was startled. He still wanted to appreciate the miserable and struggling expression of his prey, but since Senior Brother said so, he dare not disobey, he also released his Spirit Tool, and it whizzed towards Zhou Liang and Lin Xian.
With a gorgeous blood flower, Lin Xuan was split into two halves, Zhou Liang’s head was also separated from his body, and the two were killed without suspense.
It seemed to be going very smoothly, but Huang Zhong’s uneasy premonition has become more and more intense.
“Senior Brother, what’s wrong?”
“I’m fine.” Huang Zhong shook his head, perhaps he was too sensitive.
He walked forward, preparing to pick up the two people’s storage bags, but at this moment, a strange noise rang behind him.
Huang Zhong turned his head and his face showed a stunned expression. He almost thought that his eyes saw wrong, the Demon Moon Spider that he had killed, stood up strangely.
Click, click, step by step it walked over.
“Hehe, the flesh and blood of a cultivator are really delicious.”
Hearing that the spider’s corpse actually spoke out in human language, Huang Zhong and Ma Jin were shocked, and they threw their Spirit Tools without thinking.
However, when the black light flashed, the spider disappeared from its place. The next moment, it appeared beside Zhou Liang’s corpse: “Hehe, this kid has a Water attribute Spirit Root, and it happens to synergy with this Old Ancestor.”
As the spider rushed forward, a layer of bright black light completely wrapped around the Spirit Beast and Zhou Liang’s body, and the two began to merge, in the black light…
