Chapter 348 Chaotic Battle
Even the sharpest parts of the spikes were still very sharp. They were even burning with black flames as they stabbed into the wounds of the azure spirit leopard.
In an instant, fresh blood flowed out and thick dewdrops burst out.
"Roar!"
The azure spirit leopard cried out in pain.
The body that was pouncing over slowed down unconsciously.
The nine-nether poisonous hedgehog, which had been at a disadvantage, took advantage of the momentum to gain the upper hand.
The nine-nether poisonous hedgehog was obviously smarter than the azure spirit leopard. It seized the opportunity and immediately avoided the attack range of the azure spirit leopard. Its strong limbs moved in the air as if it was walking on flat ground. It circled to the top of the leopard's head, and with a shake of its body, its thorns flashed and shot out again.
Hundreds of thorns shot out at the same time, not giving the leopard any chance to react. They shot into the black flames and hit the leopard before it was completely burned.
The azure spirit leopard roared in pain again. It finally realized the difference between it and its opponent. Its strong body darted out of the old temple like lightning, and it chose to escape without hesitation.
"You want to leave now? Isn't it too late!"
The nine-nether poisonous hedgehog sneered and jumped in the air with its short limbs, ready to give chase.
At this time, the dozens of fierce beasts that had been repelled finally reacted. They rose into the air one after another and pounced toward the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog one after another, blocking the way and trying to save the azure spirit leopard.
"You reckless thing! Who's your Master!" the nine-nether poisonous hedgehig stopped in its tracks. Seeing that the azure spirit leopard was about to escape, it was instantly enraged.
Its entire body trembled as the spikes on its back shot out ferociously.
The dozens of ferocious demonic beasts were still fearful and suspicious at first. They only wanted to block the way and didn't directly attack the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog.
However, the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog's action of shooting out its thorns had obviously angered them. They immediately bared their teeth and fearlessly pounced toward the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog.
The nine-nether poisonous hedgehog realized that its actions had been wrong, and it had actually caused the low-level magical beasts that had been subservient to rebel.
However, since things had come to this, he could only face it.
He was determined to get the azure spirit leopard, so how could he give up just because of a few low-level demonic beasts?
Although the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog was not afraid of these demonic beasts, he did not want to be entangled by them. Otherwise, with the speed of the azure spirit leopard, he would be able to escape from his range of control very soon.
He did not choose to face the dozens of demonic beasts head-on. Instead, he turned around and fell from the sky. He wanted to circle around the demonic beasts and chase after the azure spirit leopard.
The hundreds of demonic beasts that had been alarmed in the ruins of Qingshi City earlier had come and surrounded the ancient temple, blocking the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog's path again.
The nine-nether poisonous hedgehog became anxious as it watched the duck fly away. It immediately turned its eyes to the altar.
"You guys help me block these idiots for now. I'll thank you when I capture the azure spirit leopard." The poisonous hedgehog asked Shangguan Fei, He Youliang, and Liu Youcheng, who had chosen to watch from the sidelines, to help.
Although he had said it once before, Shangguan Fei and the others obviously did not do as it said.
In the hearts of Shangguan Fei and the other two, the top priority was to pursue Gu Mingzhou. They were unwilling to get entangled with these brainless and difficult demonic beasts.
When the poisonous hedgehog was fighting with the azure spirit leopard, there were obvious battle fluctuations in the southeast direction. Shangguan Fei and the others wanted to go over and check it out, but they suddenly heard the request of the poisonous hedgehog and hesitated.
"We'll help you this once, but we can only help you stall for a few minutes. Whether you capture the azure spirit leopard or not, we have to leave in case Gu Mingzhou escapes!" Shangguan Fei pondered for a long time and immediately made a decision.
Even if Gu Mingzhou and Jing Wudao joined forces, Wu Ji patriarch could hold them off for at least a hundred breaths.
Shangguan Fei had never expected that after Zhao Qiankun's guidance, Wu Ji patriarch would be instantly killed by Jing Wudao and Gu Mingzhou.
"All right!" seeing that Shangguan Fei had agreed, the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog knew that He Youliang and Liu Youcheng would naturally not object. Its adult-sized body immediately took two steps back and looked at the dense and slowly approaching ferocious demonic beasts.
"Go!" Shangguan Fei didn't want to waste any more time. He reached an agreement with the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog and attacked directly.
He jumped up and floated in the air. His yellow robe fluttered, and his aura soared.
His spiritual energy surged and surrounded his body. He tapped his feet in the air and left a few afterimages in the air as he instantly rushed towards the group of demonic beasts.
These low-level demonic beasts were obviously not very intelligent, and they were only ordered by the azure spirit leopard to stop the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog.
They didn't expect that someone would dare to attack them at this time, and they even sensed a dangerous aura from Shangguan Fei.
This made the demonic beasts extremely angry. They immediately gave up on blocking the way and pounced on Shangguan Fei.
"Haha, Island Master Shangguan, let me give you a hand!" Liu Youcheng laughed loudly when he saw that Shangguan Fei had already made his move.
Then, he leaped into the air, and the figure of the Golden Dragon appeared above his head. He opened his arms and rushed straight into the crowd of demonic beasts, joining the battlefield in an instant. Together with Shangguan Fei, they fought against the hundreds of demonic beasts.
In an instant, the hundreds of demonic beasts that had surrounded the ancient temple gathered and continued to launch strong attacks on Shangguan Fei and Liu Youcheng. They ignored the nine-nether poisonous hedgehog and even He Youliang, who had yet to make a move.
"Island Master Shangguan, I owe you a favor for this matter." The poisonous centipede of the nine-nether was overjoyed when it saw that the obstacle had been cleared. As it sent a message to Shangguan Fei, its strong limbs tapped lightly in the air, and it quickly flew out of the old temple like an arrow leaving the Xuan realm. It was extremely fast and violent, and it instantly shot toward the azure spirit leopard.
Only He Youliang was left on the altar, while Shangguan Fei and Liu Youcheng, who were engaged in an intense battle, were left. Their eyes flickered, as if they had made up their minds about something. With a wave of their right hand, their swords appeared out of thin air, ready to join the battle and help.
However, at this moment, the originally clear sky suddenly darkened.
The sky changed color, and the sun lost its light!
The nine green pillars shot up into the sky in the southeast!
The wind rose, the clouds retreated, and the light was bright.
They were nine enormous green pillars that seemed to hold up the sky. They suddenly shot up into the sky from the southeast.
The nine green pillars seemed to be controlled by someone in the dark as they intertwined in the sky.
The two green lights suddenly collided.
The thunder exploded, and the air billowed.
The nine giant pillars suddenly disappeared and turned into a platform that almost covered half of the sky, emitting nine-colored light.
The entire world and everything in the world paled in comparison.
Shangguan Fei, He Youliang, and Liu Youcheng all paled at the same time.
This was the process of a cultivator building their Dao Foundation, the auspicious realm for a cultivator to successfully build their Dao Foundation!
"It must be Gu Mingzhou. He was already at the pinnacle of the venerable realm before this. He's the most likely to have built his Dao Foundation!" Liu Youcheng coldly said.
Previously, he did not care about Gu Mingzhou. It could even be said that he did not care about him at all.
However, he had no choice but to pay attention to it now. After all, the Qing Emperor's masses of inheritance had fallen into the hands of the other party.
"So what if he has built his Dao Foundation? Why would we be afraid of him?" Shangguan Fei's expression did not change much. Instead, he comforted Liu Youcheng.
