Chapter 184 The Battle of Chaoyin Mountain
The pursuers have not come up yet, and now is not an extremely critical time. With his hands free, Zhang Zhixuan certainly will not sit back and watch his companions die.
He did not choose to help Feng Xiucheng, who had the highest cultivation level, but chose to help Wu Xiangjie, who had a winning chance, to capture the enemy.
Wu Xiangjie’s opponent was an elderly monk who was on the fifth level of foundation building. This man had poor spiritual roots. He had been building foundations in the Hongshan Sect for more than a hundred years before he could reach the fifth level of foundation building. Although he has no future, this old monk has a lot of experience.
Although his magic power and magical weapons were not as good as those of others, and the battle with Wu Xiangjie was already ruined, he was still able to defeat without being injured, and barely managed to hold Wu Xiangjie back.
The old monk could see clearly that their reinforcements would arrive in an hour and a half. As long as they delayed their opponents, Zhang Zhixuan and others would be like caged birds with no chance of survival.
According to Zhang Zhixuan’s estimation, without his own help, Wu Xiangjie would have the upper hand, but it would be impossible to defeat his opponent before the pursuers came up.
Although the Wu and Zhang families sometimes have internal competition, and his father Zhang Mengzhen also died at the hands of the Wu family, when facing foreign enemies, the Zhang, Wu and other families are the closest friends.
If Zhang Zhixuan chooses to run away today, if any of the monks present survive, I am afraid that Qingxuan Sect will also hold him accountable after the war.
Even if Qingxuanzong does not use Zhang Zhixuan’s head to establish his authority, this move will greatly offend Wu Sixeng. Although Wu Sixeng will not be able to personally take action at that time, the situation of the Zhang family will become very difficult.
Moreover, Wu Xiangjie is a very good friend who is trustworthy and knowledgeable. Although it is impossible for Zhang Zhixuan to save all his companions today, he is still very sure to help Wu Xiangjie win his opponent.
Zhang Zhixuan packed up the spoils and immediately chose to take action. He touched the storage bag, took out a white spider web magic weapon, and quickly covered Wu Xiangjian’s opponent.
This old monk managed to hold on against Wu Xiangjian alone, but now came the even more powerful Zhang Zhixuan, and he immediately felt unable to resist.
Seeing a white spider web covering him, the man immediately devoted part of his energy to releasing a third-level low-grade flying knife. The flying knife magic weapon turned into an afterimage and slashed on the white spider web.
However, the white spider web is very tough, and the old foundation builder can only use three-thirds of his strength, which cannot cut through the spider web.
There was also a faint white mist exuding above the spider web. The white mist dispersed very quickly and covered the old foundation-builder in an instant.
Hongshan Sect’s elderly foundation builder was a veteran who had been around for many years. When he noticed something was wrong, he immediately took a second-grade top-grade detoxifying pill.
This white mist is the poisonous mist that comes with the poisonous fire net. This poisonous mist comes from the third-level mid-level demonic insect poisonous fire spider. The most difficult thing about the poisonous fire spider is its own poison. Without preparing a third-level detoxification pill, it is impossible to detoxify this poison.
In order to prepare foundation-building pills for the family’s descendants, the old man had been frugal in recent decades and did not carry any third-level detoxification pills with him.
The highly poisonous poison carried by the Poison Fire Net can only be slightly suppressed by taking the second-grade high-grade detoxifying pill.
Soon he felt a strong fainting feeling. Although he suppressed it temporarily, this opportunity was immediately seized by Zhang Zhixuan.
Discovering that the Poison Fire Network had accomplished its feat, Zhang Zhixuan immediately secretly released the Zimu Sword.
The sub-sword of the Zi-Mother Sword is good at stealth attacks, especially when the elderly monk is poisoned and his mind is groggy. Most of his energy has to be to resist Wu Xiangjie’s attack. If he is not paying attention, he will not notice the crisis coming.
He barely had time to react before his head was beheaded by Zhang Zhixuan’s golden sword.
Killing his opponent meant that he was out of danger, enough to escape before his pursuers caught up with him. Wu Xiangjian glanced at Zhang Zhixuan gratefully, then looked back at the pursuers behind him.
Seeing that the pursuers had not come up, Zhang Zhixuan and Wu Xiangjian looked at each other and immediately chose the same opponent tacitly. This person was the opponent of Liu Zixuan, the head of the Liu family, Xiao Hongxuan, the head of the Xiao family in Qingliang Mountain, the closest to Chaoyin Mountain.
Xiao Hongxuan’s cultivation level is only at the third level of foundation building. He is no match for Liu Zixuan, who is at the fifth level of foundation building. In addition, Liu Zixuan has risked his life to break out, and he has been trying his best to delay it until now.
He never expected that Zhang Zhixuan would be so difficult to deal with. He actually defeated his opponent in a short period of time and helped Wu Xiangjie win over the old foundation-builder.
Xiao Hongxuan’s cultivation level was not enough in the first place. Now he was faced with the siege of Zhang Zhixuan who was in the late stage of Foundation Establishment, Wu Xiang Jian who had a third-level high-grade magic weapon on the sixth floor of Foundation Establishment, and Liu Zixuan who was on the fifth floor of Foundation Establishment. He was defeated immediately, almost instantly. He died in the hands of three people.
The enemies that the three of them defeated one after another have freed up a lot of strength. If there is enough time and the help of the three of them, the Qingxuan Sect can achieve a great victory and defeat this group of enemies without paying too much.
Unfortunately, God did not leave them more time. Just as Zhang Zhixuan and the others were preparing to take action, bursts of sound piercing the sky came from the distance, and the pursuers were finally catching up.
The three of them smiled bitterly at each other. Although they were sure of victory now, it was a pity that it was time to run.
But even when the three of them were leaving, they could help one companion at a time to get out of the encirclement, allowing one companion to get rid of the opponent’s control and get out of the encirclement.
Zhang Zhixuan didn’t hesitate at all. He took a deep breath, mobilized almost all his magic power, and spit out a flame from his mouth, turning into a golden knife.
This small knife actually has a soaring aura. Just by looking at the appearance, you already know that it is very good.
This golden knife is the magic Heavenly Fire Golden Knife that Zhang Zhixuan worked hard for more than thirty years to refine.
This flaming golden sword not only has the burst of fire-attribute spells, but also has the sharpness of metallic spells. The spell itself has also reached the third level of high-grade. Without good protective measures, ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage would not be able to withstand a slash from this sharp golden sword.
Zhang Zhixuan stretched out his hand and the golden sword turned into a stream of light and immediately slashed towards the enemy.
The monk Zhang Zhixuan chose to rescue had only one level of foundation building. He was a monk of Qingxuan Sect who had just established the foundation for less than three years.
This person’s opponent is also a young monk on the second level of foundation building. He is slightly older than Zhang Zhixuan, only about sixty years old. Most of the foundation building monks at this age have not been building foundation for a long time and have accumulated a lot of experience. The background is not deep either.
This young monk from the Hongshan Sect looked happy when he saw the reinforcements arriving, and was about to use his power to defeat his opponent. Unexpectedly, a golden sword fell from the sky. He had no time to react, and his head was chopped off by Zhang Zhixuan with one blow.
The pursuers were almost here. Although Zhang Zhixuan used the Skyfire Golden Sword to unexpectedly kill the enemy on the second floor of the foundation, it was a pity that it was too late to collect his storage bag.
He turned his sword, glanced at the astonished Qingxuan Sect rookie Zhu Ji, and ran away without looking back.
