Chapter 74
Sneak Attack Fails
The talisman in Liu Jing's hand trembled slightly, then transformed into a golden light that shot into the sky before bursting into countless golden specks.
As Liu Jing made hand seals, the golden light gradually transformed into small golden swords, each about an inch long, exuding an incomparably sharp and chilling aura.
"Thousand Blade Technique"
Liu Jing gave a soft shout, and with a change in his hand seals, the golden swords shot towards the three blood cocoons like a storm. In an instant, golden light and blood light intertwined, splattering everywhere, while a series of muffled stabs could be heard.
Under this fierce attack, the blood-red light on the surface of the three blood cocoons gradually increased, and they actually increased the thickness of the blood cocoons.
"Senior Brother Liu, I'm here to lend you a hand!" Song Meng shouted, and the talisman in his hand was fully activated, transforming into a long spear that exuded gray energy.
"Alright! Focus your attacks on the Blood Servant on the left first, don't spread your attacks out." Liu Jing said with great joy when he saw the opponent's talisman appear.
After speaking, he raised his hand and pointed, and all the golden swords immediately turned their tips and shot towards the blood cocoon on the far left.
After a series of rumbling sounds, everyone noticed that the blood-red light on the surface of the blood cocoon had faded considerably. So, everyone once again used various magical artifacts and spells, unleashing them all at once.
After being attacked simultaneously by everyone, the blood-red light on the surface of the blood cocoon was reduced to a thin film, through which everyone could even see the demonized human figure inside.
At this moment, Song Meng also threw the spear in his hand into the air, made sword fingers with both hands, and pointed at the blood cocoon. The gray spear shot away instantly.
"Pfft"
A piercing sound rang out as the gray spear pierced right through it. Immediately afterward, a furious roar erupted from within the blood cocoon, making everyone's ears ring.
Then, two crystal-clear white claws suddenly emerged from the blood cocoon, and with a frenzied dance, tore apart the surrounding blood light, revealing its true form.
It has a human head and body, two legs, and a pure white tail that grows from its back, covered with a layer of shimmering white scales. Its hands have turned into two sharp claws, also covered with scales. Its body and face are painted with translucent milky white demon patterns.
It was a white monster that was half human and half demon.
There was a large, bowl-sized hole on his shoulder, dripping with blood. However, upon closer inspection, the flesh around the wound was writhing and repairing the injury, and it seemed to be healing soon.
"You're asking for it!"
The ice demon, which had not yet fully transformed into a demon, clearly still retained its normal mind and roared fiercely at the crowd.
Upon seeing the terrifying half-demon form of the enemy, Liu Jing and the others' expressions changed, and they were deeply shocked.
Just then, several white lights flashed by and struck the ice demon's body, knocking it over and making it look extremely disheveled.
The attack was launched by Han Li's puppet beast. It didn't want to listen to the other party's nonsense, and before anyone could react, it launched the first attack.
However, the Ice Demon did not immediately get up after falling to the ground. Instead, a white mist rose from its body, and when the mist dissipated, everyone was horrified to find that its figure had vanished.
So they hurriedly started searching everywhere, thinking the other person was planning to escape.
"Everyone be careful, this guy is hiding and trying to ambush us!" Li Yunfan shouted as soon as the other party disappeared.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and looked at the position where Senior Sister Chen Qiaoqian was sitting cross-legged. He rubbed his hands together, and a purple flame immediately appeared between his palms. He then quickly flicked it behind her.
Just then, Chen Qiaoqian's senior sister activated her talisman. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Li Yunfan throw a purple flame at her. She was shocked and instinctively tried to use her talisman.
"Xuehong, watch out behind you!"
When she heard her Daoist partner's shout, her movements slowed down slightly. It was during this delay that Li Yunfan's flames flew past her and landed on the ground behind her, forming a thin wall of purple fire.
Upon seeing this, Xuehong instantly sprang up and flew forward. Only after he reached the group did he look back with relief.
Behind the semi-transparent purple wall of fire, a faint figure stood there, looking at Li Yunfan with a face full of surprise and doubt.
"Is it a coincidence, or can he really sense me?"
After concealing himself, he discovered that the female cultivator was alone and had not released any protective magic artifacts, so he planned to ambush and kill her first.
Just as he bypassed the crowd and came behind the female cultivator, preparing to make a move, Li Yunfan seemed to be able to see her, and released a flame to form a wall of fire to block his sneak attack.
Xue Hong's face paled slightly when she saw the ice demon standing right behind where she had been sitting. She secretly thought how close she had come to disaster. If Li Yunfan hadn't attacked, she would probably have been killed by now.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Li Yunfan with gratitude, but at the same time she felt a little guilty. He was clearly trying to save her, but she had immediately thought he was going to attack her.
Li Yunfan simply nodded slightly. He didn't care what the other party was thinking. Right now, he only wanted to kill the Ice Demon and obtain the "Blood Condensation Five Elements Pill" from its body.
He had previously obtained an earth-attribute evil pill from the bald giant's body, and the ice demon's body should contain a water-attribute evil pill.
Although he doesn't need to use the Blood Condensation Five Elements Pill to break through to the Core Formation stage, it doesn't mean he doesn't want it. He's not alone now; he has a little brother behind him.
"How dare you ambush me! You're asking for death!"
Xuehong looked at the ice demon behind the wall of fire, her pretty face full of anger and coldness. She raised a small, gleaming silver sword in her hand, ready to shoot it at the ice demon.
"Hold your hand!" Li Yunfan immediately reached out to stop him.
Upon hearing this, Xue Hong immediately stopped her attack, but did not lower her raised right hand, clearly intending to continue her attack after listening to Li Yunfan's words.
"Senior Sister, leave this demon to me and Senior Brother Han. You should save your talismans for attacking those two blood cocoons. Those blood cocoons are extremely tough, and ordinary methods can't break through their defenses." Liu Yunfan quickly stated his idea of stopping the demon.
Xue Hong frowned, glanced back at the two blood-red cocoons, one large and one small, then looked back at the ice demon that had just ambushed her. She really didn't want to let it go so easily. If she didn't use the talisman in her hand to cut the demon in two, she would find it hard to quell her anger.
"Xuehong, Junior Brother Li is right. We should save your talisman for when we attack the Blood Cocoon!"
The male cultivator who had previously warned the other party to be careful, who was also Xue Hong's Daoist partner, also spoke up to advise them at this moment.
Hearing her Daoist partner say this, Xue Hong could only give the Ice Demon a cold look before turning around and controlling the magical artifact formed from the talisman in her hand to attack the Blood Cocoon.
"Senior Brother Liu, you two just focus on attacking those two blood cocoons. Leave the monster that's hiding to me and Junior Brother Han. We'll make sure it doesn't bother you."
Li Yunfan said something to Liu Jing, then exchanged a glance with Han Li before taking out the Crimson Fire Sword from his storage bag and charging directly at the Ice Demon.
Han Li then waved his hand, releasing six golden rays and two dark rays, followed by Li Yunfan rushing down as well.
