Chapter 30

Tears streaming, I beg for your collection and recommendation!

Night,

Xu Ziyyan and twenty others lay in the forest, suddenly a tremor shook the earth. Everyone jumped up from the ground, rushed to the high ground, and looked towards the front of the snowy night.

In the snowy night, the road ahead was still empty, but the sound like thunder was getting closer.

"The demonic beasts are coming!" someone whispered.

As soon as this person spoke, everyone's nerves tightened. They strained their eyes to look far down the road.

Suddenly, a shadow leaped out in the distance, rapidly approaching like a tidal wave. The air was suddenly filled with deafening roars, and the snowflakes in the sky were shaken off their paths, scattering in all directions.

Closer!

Suddenly, the demonic beasts running in front sank into the ground, followed by a chorus of mournful cries. It was the effect of the traps set up. Countless demonic beasts fell into the traps, where sharp wooden stakes were set at the bottom. The lower-ranked demonic beasts that fell in had almost no chance of survival, but some higher-ranked ones jumped out of the traps and charged forward in a frenzy.

Due to the large number of demonic beasts falling into the traps, the traps were quickly filled with corpses, and the remaining hundreds of demonic beasts charged even more fiercely.

The demonic beasts had not advanced far when the various traps set up dealt them another devastating blow. Spears, nail boards, logs, and giant nets rained down on the demonic beasts. This reduced their numbers by half, but over a hundred demonic beasts still charged forward.

At this moment, Xu Ziyyan heard the sounds of battle from other small paths nearby, knowing that the demonic beasts had engaged on all fronts.

"Kill!"

The inner hall disciple leading the group shouted, and everyone rushed towards the demonic beasts with their weapons. As Xu Ziyyan charged down the hill, an ice arrow whizzed past her cheek. Behind her, she heard a scream. She quickly turned around and saw the ice arrow embedded in the forehead of a new outer hall disciple. The arrow's tail still shimmered with a crystalline glow, but the new disciple's eyes were wide open like a dead fish, and blood gushed from his forehead as he fell backward onto the snow.

Xu Ziyyan's hair stood on end, and she broke out in a cold sweat. She steadied herself and looked forward, seeing that everyone had already rushed up and intercepted the demonic beasts at the entrance, engaging in fierce combat. Through the gaps in the moving figures, she was shocked to see so many demonic beasts.

She saw a dense mass of demonic beasts, some with bodies as hard as copper and iron, clashing head-on with the people, while others continuously spewed spells, ice arrows, and fireballs. The people also used all their skills, not only wielding swords and spears but also throwing the talismans issued by the family at the demonic beasts. For a moment, the spells released by the talismans exploded continuously among the demonic beasts, and the speed of releasing the talismans was clearly much faster than the demonic beasts' spellcasting. Thus, despite their smaller numbers, Xu Ziyyan's group fought the demonic beasts on equal terms.

However, Xu Ziyyan knew she couldn't recklessly throw the talismans. Although the family had many talismans, each person received only a few. If they used them all up, when the next wave of demonic beasts came, they would have to rely on their own magic power. Even the inner hall disciples, who were at the Qi Condensation stage, couldn't withstand so many demonic beasts. She and the others, now nineteen, might not be able to hold off more than two hundred demonic beasts without the support of talismans.

"Boom~~"

Suddenly, a dozen talismans exploded together, the force of which made the earth tremble, sparks flew, and smoke rose. Xu Ziyyan was startled and looked ahead into the night, seeing a large crater in the center of the ground, with dozens of demonic beasts lying inside. Some were still alive, moaning in the blood.

The demonic beasts were stunned by the explosion, and even the inner and outer hall disciples had never seen the power of a dozen talismans exploding together. Talismans were a very expensive luxury, and such a spectacular scene was rare. So, they, like the demonic beasts, stood there in a daze.

"Great opportunity!"

Taking advantage of the demonic beasts' daze, Xu Ziyyan stomped her feet and shot forward like an arrow. The smoke had not yet cleared, concealing her figure. She appeared in front of a demonic beast, thrusting her long sword fiercely into its throat, then pulled it out and leaped towards another. Behind her, a blood arrow spurted from the throat of the demonic beast, and its massive body fell to the ground with a thud.

As the smoke slowly dissipated, everyone came out of their daze. Suddenly, their eyes narrowed, seeing a figure flashing among the demonic beasts, pausing briefly, and each time the cold light in her hand accurately pierced the throat of a demonic beast. She then pounced on another, and behind her, a blood arrow spurted from the throat of the demonic beast, which then slowly fell to the ground.

The figure moved quickly, and demonic beasts kept falling behind her, like dominoes.

Everyone suddenly came to their senses, realizing they had missed the best opportunity to kill the demonic beasts. The inner hall disciple leading the group felt ashamed and was about to give the order to attack when the outer hall disciples shouted in unison:

"It's Sister Ziyyan!"

"It's Sister Ziyyan!"

"Follow Sister Ziyyan and kill!"

"Kill!"

"Whoosh~~" The remaining nine new disciples charged madly at the demonic beasts, but the demonic beasts also came out of their shock, roaring and charging at everyone.

"Kill!"

The inner hall disciple finally gave the order and led the charge against the demonic beasts. By this time, dozens of demonic beasts had been killed by the talismans, and another thirty or so had been killed by Xu Ziyyan taking advantage of their daze. Only about forty remained.

However, these forty were extremely fierce, though not of high rank, with the highest being third-level demonic beasts, and only five of them. The rest were first and second-level demonic beasts. But now, smelling the blood, the demonic beasts lost all reason, their ferocity unleashed, and they charged at Xu Ziyyan and the others without fear of death.
