Chapter 139: I Think I’ve Found a Method to Heal Myself
Because there was nothing stronger than them along the way.
Even more troublesome, An Xiu’s expression suddenly changed: “No, they are following us back to the county town.”
If they continue to pursue, they won’t be far from the county town.
Tier 3 Demonic Beasts charging in, and now all those Sect disciples are just fodder.
Honghuang gritted his teeth, “Let’s run in another direction.”
They planned to change direction.
However, the pursuit by the Nine Nether Eating Spiders caused the demonic beast horde to start rioting.
This group of demonic beasts occupied a route, forming a long line.
After the Nine Nether Eating Spiders chased the two Players over, it seemed to have agitated the impatient demonic beast horde.
Tier 2 Demonic Beasts also began to move.
They were heading towards Wang’an County.
Demonic beasts are naturally fast, and they weren’t far from the county town.
Honghuang’s mind exploded: “Did we cause trouble?”
An Xiu: “Damn it! It’s not chasing anymore!”
As soon as the two Nine Nether Eating Spiders saw Honghuang and the others suddenly change direction and move away from the county town, they stopped directly in the forest.
After glancing at Honghuang, their massive bodies turned directly and headed towards the county town.
Along the way, they even stepped on a few Magic Horned Snakes.
The Magic Horned Snakes, which Players considered troublesome, were snapped in half by the Nine Nether Eating Spiders with a single step, their venomous fluids spilling everywhere.
However, the Nine Nether Eating Spiders didn’t care at all, and neither did the other demonic beasts.
Along this journey, quite a few demonic beasts were trampled to death.
Honghuang and An Xiu watched, exchanged glances, then gritted their teeth and charged forward, trying to lure the Nine Nether Eating Spiders away again.
But a horde of Tier 2 Demonic Beasts blocked their path.
On the outskirts of the county town, Zhen Weida and the others, who hadn’t finished dealing with the Tier 1 Demonic Beasts, saw the approaching Tier 2 Demonic Beasts and jumped up.
“Holy crap, a horde of Tier 2 Demonic Beasts, how are we supposed to fight this!!”
He had already used three healing potions just clearing Tier 1 Demonic Beasts!
The corpses of demonic beasts were piled up about a mile from the county town, all sorts of venomous fluids flowing everywhere. The corpses and the stench combined, and Players could barely clean it up.
Some Life Players were almost unable to endure it.
The smell was too overwhelming.
Some New Players who had just entered smelled this odor, and the increasingly strong smell of venomous corpses almost made them roll their eyes.
Moreover, this strong stench was harmful to the human body.
New Players, who hadn’t opened their Spiritual Roots yet, couldn’t stand the smell at all and suspected that a septic tank had exploded in the game.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, some even logged off.
Some Mortals, smelling this strong odor, immediately found something to cover their mouths and noses.
It was a small piece of cloth; just wetting it with a special water and covering their noses would prevent them from being bothered by the smell.
This method was taught by that Wine Immortal, Zhai Xiaotian.
And with such intensity, it was clear that many demonic beasts had died.
Tonight’s battle meant that even the Mortals couldn’t sleep.
Whether the Immortals could hold them off or not was directly related to their lives!
“Is that a Tier 3 Demonic Beast, holy crap?!”
Zhou Xiao’s eyesight was getting better and better. He saw the Nine Nether Eating Spiders, which were noticeably larger than the other Tier 2 Demonic Beasts in the approaching horde, and his face instantly turned pale: “How the hell are we supposed to fight this!!”
A Tier 3 Demonic Beast, the Nine Nether Eating Spider!
This was a demonic beast that even a typical Qi Refining Stage cultivator couldn’t deal with among Tier 3s!
And two of them appeared at once!
The other Players were also stunned.
“Did the Dog Planner design this event to be too beastly? They completely disregard the power gap?”
Some people even thought this demonic beast invasion event was meant to welcome New Players.
They thought the Planner was just randomly creating events.
The Dog Planner Song Jiulai, who was still being cursed at, heard the System announce the presence of Tier 3 Demonic Beasts and immediately said without hesitation: “Can’t handle it anymore, teleport me back first, let them fight the Nine Nether Eating Spiders with their lives!”
She couldn’t even deal with that thing before.
In a moment of crisis, she couldn’t worry about these things anymore.
System: “…Wait a moment, Su Huanli has returned.”
It was like a savior descending in a story, though that analogy wasn’t entirely fitting.
Su Huanli didn’t appear at the last second; she arrived before the Nine Nether Eating Spiders even made their move.
The sudden appearance of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator greatly reassured the cultivators fighting outside. The Flying Sparrow Sect members shouted: “Senior Sister Su!”
“Senior Sister Su!”
The Longevity Sect Players also saw her.
Su Huanli, Senior Sister Su.
Foundation Establishment Stage, thank goodness, there’s still hope!
Su Huanli, on her Flying Magic Treasure, first looked back at Wang’an County, which was almost unrecognizable, then turned her head and pursed her lips, looking at the Nine Nether Eating Spiders not far away.
The two Tier 3 Demonic Beasts sensed the aura of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator and immediately stopped in their tracks.
Su Huanli raised her hand, and several Ice Blades shot out, piercing through the Tier 2 and Tier 1 Demonic Beasts at the forefront.
The Tier 2 Demonic Beasts could still struggle a bit, but the Tier 1 Demonic Beasts were instantly annihilated.
The destructive power of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator was evident.
Su Huanli’s gaze was fixed on the two Nine Nether Eating Spiders, her expression grim.
She had received the news midway and was the fastest to return.
However, she hadn’t found any signs of demonic beast rampages elsewhere along the way.
This demonic beast invasion targeting Wang’an County was truly unreasonable.
The two Nine Nether Eating Spiders stood still for a moment, then suddenly charged forward rapidly. Seeing this, Su Huanli immediately met them, absolutely unwilling to let them charge into Wang’an County.
Song Jiulai heard that Su Huanli had returned and thought they might hold on for a while longer, and she would soon reach the Yin Sha Deer’s location.
She had read the information on the Yin Sha Deer; it had the skeletal structure of a deer, but its offensive capabilities were not apparent in its appearance but rather in mental attacks.
The Yin Sha Deer’s emitted Yin energy could infect people.
It made them impulsive, irritable, and lose their minds. The longer the infection lasted, the greater the effect on the cultivator, eventually turning them into a soulless husk, and it was rumored that the Yin Sha Deer could even briefly control them.
Cultivators with strong willpower could resist for a longer period.
Fortunately, the Yin Sha Deer itself was only a Tier 4 Demonic Beast; otherwise, this ability would be quite sinister.
At the same time, outside Wang’an County, Su Huanli was fighting the Nine Nether Eating Spiders.
However, the combat power of two Tier 3 Demonic Beasts could actually hold her, a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, at bay.
Other Players could only help deal with the Tier 2 Demonic Beasts, but they were still more troublesome than Tier 1 Demonic Beasts. The Tier 2 Demonic Beast horde began to push further forward.
Zhan Sheng, on the city wall, realized that the new assault was stronger than the previous ones and that the Players were about to be overwhelmed.
No, it’s too far, and the information obtained is still too little. Moreover, the power gap in the Cultivation World is too large, making calculations impossible.
Just as she was about to think of something, the System suddenly notified her of an urgent message in reality.
Zhan Sheng could only frown and log off.
She hoped these Players could hold on.
Zhan Sheng’s expression froze when she saw who had sent her a message.
It was a video call.
After she answered, a seemingly refined face appeared on the other end of the call: “A Sheng, I’ve inquired about Dr. Fenrir Allison’s whereabouts abroad. He is very skilled in neurobiology research. Although he is retired now, he heard about your situation and is willing to conduct a detailed examination and create a treatment plan for you.”
Zhan Sheng was silent for a moment, then finally said.
“I’m not going. I think I’ve found a way to cure myself.”
