Chapter 67 Flying Fire Toad
To monks, monsters are all treasures, and the materials on them are a very important cultivation resource for human monks.
For monsters, human monks are also a powerful natural treasure and a rare delicacy.
The flesh and blood essence of human monks can promote the advancement of the bloodline of monsters and beasts.
When encountering weak human monks, most monsters will not let go. They will hunt human monks according to their instincts, and then devour their flesh and blood, refining the essence for their own use, and improving and purifying their own bloodline.
A monster like the Flying Fire Toad has a very simple mind and a bad temper. As long as it does not feel threatened, it is entirely possible to lure it into the formation.
Zhang Menglong set up a second-level concealment formation three miles away from the Earth Fire Spirit Cave, and then set up a third-level low-level Jingtai Formation. He was ready, and then asked the fastest Zhang Zhixuan to act as a bait to lure the Flying Fire Toad.
Before three quarters of noon, Zhang Zhixuan quietly came to a distance of three hundred feet near the Earth Fire Spirit Cave. At this distance, Zhang Zhixuan could be easily spotted as soon as the Flying Fire Toad showed up.
And the distance is not too far or too close, which can give Zhang Zhixuan some reaction time.
Zhang Zhixuan suppressed his nervousness and quietly held three or four high-grade magical talismans in his hands, ready to activate them at any time to deal with sudden dangers.
Bang bang bang!
A dull bang.
Zhang Zhixuan was shocked, and on a whim he activated a magical talisman. His body immediately turned into an afterimage and flew away more than ten feet away.
He reluctantly looked back and saw a fiery red toad more than eight feet tall suddenly broke through the blockage of the earth’s fire magma and flew to the sky above the spiritual cave.
With a flash of inspiration, the giant toad flew over a distance of more than ten feet. In an instant, it easily flew over a distance of several hundred feet and was about to catch up with Zhang Zhixuan.
Its mouth suddenly opened, and the tongue in the huge mouth flew ten feet away and swept across the place where Zhang Zhixuan had just stood.
If Zhang Zhixuan had reacted a little slower, he might have been caught by the Flying Fire Toad’s tongue and swallowed into his mouth.
The monster’s speed was so fast that it greatly exceeded Zhang Zhixuan’s expectations. He immediately used the light body technique and quickly ran towards the trap that had been prepared.
The giant toad failed to catch prey for the first time. He kicked off his limbs and jumped several feet away. Although its body is huge, it is far more flexible and faster than Zhang Zhixuan from jump to jump.
After just a few jumps, he jumped in front of Zhang Zhixuan. It shook its head quickly, and the long tongue in its mouth was like a spring, and shot at Zhang Zhixuan for the second time.
Faced with this unexpected situation, Zhang Zhixuan did not panic and immediately activated the soil escape talisman in his hand. His body transformed into a spiritual light and quickly got under the soil.
The Flying Fire Toad is a kind of monster with very low intelligence. When it saw Zhang Zhixuan disappearing, it was immediately at a loss. It roared several times angrily and reluctantly returned to the sky above the spiritual cave, preparing to continue collecting Yang Fire Qi.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, the effect of the magic talisman disappeared. As soon as Zhang Zhixuan emerged from the soil, he immediately ran away and quickly fled to the middle of the formation.
Being deceived by the weak insect, the Flying Fire Toad was quite angry. With a bright light on its body, it chased after it for the second time in a menacing manner.
This time, because Zhang Zhixuan was given more time, he was allowed to enter the formation first.
The Flying Fire Toad was extremely fast and immediately broke into the formation rashly.
The storm formation turned into huge waves, hitting the Flying Fire Toad non-stop.
Layers of spiritual light shields formed on the Flying Fire Toad, blocking the huge waves.
It is a fire-attribute monster, and it has always hated this kind of environment with abundant water aura. The consumption of maintaining the aura shield is much greater than usual.
Except for the fourth uncle Zhang Menglong who focused on maintaining the formation, Zhang Zhixuan and the other four people sacrificed their second-level high-grade magic weapons one after another and worked together to attack the Flying Fire Toad.
Zhang Zhixuan sacrificed his green light sword and took the lead in slashing at the shield of the Flying Fire Toad.
To maintain such a huge aura shield, the Flying Fire Toad consumes a lot of demonic power. When Zhang Zhixuan’s flying sword slashed it, its aura suddenly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, the two female cultivators, Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Mengqin, were not to be outdone, and one after another sacrificed a water-attributed and an ice-attributed second-grade high-grade magic weapon, and slashed them on the shield together.
Being continuously besieged by everyone, the aura shield on the Flying Fire Toad finally could not be maintained. When the aura on its body dimmed, the aura shield dissipated instantly.
The fifteenth uncle Zhang Mengchong, who had been preparing for a long time, immediately seized the opportunity and quickly used a vine magic weapon.
A spiritual light was emitted from the magic weapon, which tightly bound the Flying Fire Toad’s forelimbs.
At the same time, Zhang Zhixuan also sacrificed his jade talisman. The jade talisman turned into a white light and fiercely wrapped around its other leg.
At this time, Fourth Uncle Zhang Menglong also increased the power of the formation. Huge waves hit the Flying Fire Toad, knocking its body onto the rock and flowing out a large amount of blood.
The Flying Fire Toad roared angrily, opened its mouth, and sprayed out the poisonous fire stored in its body, attacking the five people.
The poisonous fire emitted a black aura and carried a strong stench, which made several people feel dizzy when they smelled it.
If this poisonous fire were sprayed on five people, even if they would not die on the spot, they would immediately lose their ability to fight.
Faced with this situation, Zhang Zhixuan gritted his teeth and used his defensive weapon Ziyun Flag.
The Ziyun Flag is a water-attribute defensive weapon. After several years of sacrifice by Qing Chan, it has regained its former power.
The purple flag turned slightly, and immediately turned into a huge cloud of smoke, blocking the poisonous fire in front.
Zhang Zhixuan used the Ziyun Flag to block the poisonous fire. Zhang Hanyan and Zhang Mengqin immediately took action, using their special magic weapons and slashing the forelimbs of the Flying Fire Toad.
The two magic weapons struck a wound one after another, immediately cutting off the Flying Fire Toad’s forelimbs.
The Flying Fire Toad whined in pain, and finally felt scared. It released a stream of spiritual light all over its body, and suddenly broke away from the control of the two magical weapons, and even broke the wooden vine and the jade talisman.
Then with a flash of inspiration, he flew a few feet away, trying to escape back under the fire.
Once the Flying Fire Toad enters the earth fire, Zhang Zhixuan and the other five have no choice. This mission is tantamount to failure.
The destruction of the control magic weapon immediately triggered a backlash from Zhang Zhixuan and Zhang Mengchong. Fortunately, the jade talisman magic weapon was not Zhang Zhixuan’s commonly used magic weapon, and he invested less mental energy in controlling the magic weapon. Even so, Zhang Zhixuan’s mind sank. Drops of blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
The vine magic weapon used by Zhang Mengchong, his fifteenth uncle, to control the Flying Fire Toad was a magic weapon he had refined for many years, and he had put a lot of effort into this magic weapon.
Now that the magic weapon was broken, Zhang Mengchong’s vision went dark and he fainted.
There was a lot of blood flowing out of his seven orifices, and it looked like the situation was serious.
Just as the Flying Fire Toad successfully took off, a huge wave hit quickly. The wave was as hard as fine iron, knocking it down into the sky and falling back into the middle of the four of them.
