Chapter 82

Among the thirteen people, one was a First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior, five were Ninth Stage Cauldron Casting Realm warriors, and the rest were Eighth Stage Cauldron Casting Realm warriors.

Jiang Yi was not afraid of anyone in a one-on-one fight, but with so many people, his realm was far too low, and his yuan energy was too scarce. Once he continuously released the Explosive Yuan Palm, his body would become extremely weak, leaving him only to wait for death.

"What should I do?"

Jiang Yi's expression was stern, but his heart was very anxious. While running frantically, he thought of ways and ultimately realized that there was no other choice but to fight to the death! Since the other party could dispatch Qian Wanguan and Tutor Zhao, or perhaps the two were involved in this matter, and they dared to kill in the territory of the Spirit Beast Mountain Academy, he had no place to run and could only fight to the death, trying to drag out the time as much as possible, waiting for the academy's reinforcements.

Deciding to fight, Jiang Yi began to run frantically while scanning the surroundings, looking for the most suitable battlefield. He had to rely on external forces; otherwise, within half an incense stick's time, he would definitely become a cold, lifeless corpse.

"There's a cave ahead!"

Soon, he discovered a cave ahead, dark and deep, with no idea what kind of demonic beasts were hidden inside. Normally, he would never dare to enter recklessly, but at this moment, he had no choice and rushed into the cave.

"Whoosh!"

The thirteen people behind him followed without hesitation, all of them masked. Their eyes were filled with mockery. Jiang Yi, in his panic, had rushed into the cave, which was equivalent to cutting off his own retreat.

"Chh!"

As the thirteen people rushed into the cave, they hadn't gone far when they suddenly heard dozens of whistling sounds at a corner ahead. The First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior immediately shouted, "There are hidden weapons, retreat!"

The cave was very dark, and they had just passed the corner when they encountered a hidden weapon attack, naturally instinctively trying to dodge. However, the cave was narrow, only allowing three people to walk side by side. At this moment, five or six people had just passed the corner, while the rest were still rushing towards it, unaware of the situation ahead. The people in front retreated, while those behind rushed forward, the outcome was obvious, and a chaotic collision ensued.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

However, they retreated quickly, and the hidden weapons all hit the stone walls, making a slight sound. The First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior, seeing this in the dim light, was furious. They were not hidden weapons but ordinary stones.

"Chase!"

He led the group to charge forward again in a rage. Just as they passed the corner, another series of whistling sounds came, and a sky full of "hidden weapons" shot towards them.

"Again?"

The First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior sneered and immediately, along with the three people in front, their fists and palms glowed as they struck forward.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Sure enough, as everyone expected, the projectiles were still stones. They easily deflected them and continued to charge forward.

The cave was very long and winding. Not long after, another corner appeared ahead, and the light inside became even darker. The group could vaguely see Jiang Yi's figure just entering the corner.

"Whoosh!"

The group shot forward and quickly reached the corner. Another series of whistling sounds came, and a batch of hidden weapons shot towards them.

"Out of tricks, huh..."

The First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior's eyes were filled with mockery, but his words were cut short. Because along with the stones, a green short sword shot towards him. The sword did not activate its yuan energy at first, but as it approached him, it suddenly burst with yuan energy, shining green and transforming into a sky full of sword shadows, enveloping the three people in front.

"Covering Rain Sword!"

A cold voice rang out. As the green sword glowed, Jiang Yi was illuminated, his eyes filled with a chilling intent, showing no emotion, which was particularly intimidating in the dark cave.

"Hmph! Tiger Subduing Palm!"

Behind was a large group of people. The First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior, fearing another chaos, did not dare to retreat. His palms glowed red, and yuan energy like red dragons circled around his palms. He suddenly struck Jiang Yi's left shoulder. His strength was great, and his attack was swift. He was confident that before Jiang Yi's sword could kill him, he could knock Jiang Yi away.

"Explosive Yuan Palm!"

Jiang Yi's lips curled into a faint smile. The light on the green sword suddenly dimmed, and the other hand hidden in his sleeve suddenly shot out, colliding with the opponent's palm.

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion shook the entire cave, and countless rocks fell. The explosion made everyone's eardrums hurt, and the powerful shock wave sent several people flying, and due to the narrow cave, they inevitably knocked the people behind them as well.

"Spit..."

Jiang Yi's body was also thrown back, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His left hand trembled, and blood seeped from his tiger's mouth. If he hadn't released the Explosive Yuan Palm, his entire arm would have been crippled by the full force of the Purple Mansion Realm warrior.

"Boom, boom!"

The cave continued to shake, and more rocks fell, almost blocking the cave. Jiang Yi glanced ahead and saw that the First Stage Purple Mansion Realm warrior's arm was mangled, and the two nearby people were also injured to varying degrees. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The greatest threat was this Purple Mansion Realm warrior. If this person was not injured, he would surely die.

"Explosive Yuan Palm!"

He got up, his body flashed, and his yuan energy glowed as he released another Explosive Yuan Palm, striking the stone wall hard. This time, he did not use his full strength, but the power was still sufficient. A palm strike made the entire cave shake violently, and more rocks fell, completely blocking the cave...

"Whoosh!"

He took out a healing pill from his pocket and quickly swallowed it, then rushed into the cave. Although the cave was blocked, with the group's strength, they would soon clear it. He had to find a way out as soon as possible, or he would surely die.

"Damn!"

However, to his despair, after running for a dozen yards, a pungent, foul smell hit him, and a bone-chilling cold enveloped him.

Demonic beast!

And it was a peak First Stage demonic beast, with strength no less than the tentacle monster!

Wolves in front, tigers behind!

Jiang Yi's body was very weak, and it would be very difficult to hunt this demonic beast. If he engaged the demonic beast, by the time the group cleared the passage, his fate would be very grim.

"Fight to the death!"

Without hesitation, he turned and rushed back at the fastest speed. He directed a thread of black yuan energy to his eyes, making his vision terrifyingly sharp, and the entire cave became clear.

"Boom!"

The blocked passage was filled with explosions as the group began to attack the rocks to clear the passage. Jiang Yi glanced back at the giant python behind him, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes.

His body suddenly rushed towards the pile of rocks ahead. The green sword's yuan energy activated, acting like a sharp cone, breaking through the pile of rocks and creating a small hole. He then burrowed into the rocks like a pangolin, and after a series of punches and strikes, the nearby rocks slid down, burying him alive.

With wolves in front and tigers behind, he could not fight either side. He had to take a gamble, hoping that the demonic beast would be distracted by the group. If the demonic beast still targeted him, he would have to accept his fate...
