Chapter 1055 - Tang Xiu’s Intention (2/2)

****

Deep in the mountain range.

Tang Xiu rushed as fast as he could and didn’t fly. His feet stepped on the snowy mountain and moved lightning-fast. The speed of the demonic beasts chasing after him was by no means slow either, and the distance between him and dozens of powerful ones was getting closer and closer.

I gotta find a way to obstruct them. I’ve used up the array disks, and it’s impossible to lay out an array instantly. It would be difficult to arrange a powerful array before they catch up if I can’t find the time.

While running, his mind revolved fast. Suddenly, his face slightly shifted as an idea popped up in his mind. His figure then streaked up into the sky as he instantly unleashed the divine sword once again and controlled it to dash toward a big mountain in front. As he flew halfway up the mountaintop, he slashed the sword toward the massive body.

BOOM…

Rocks were blasted out, directly causing an avalanche.

Behind him, thousands of demonic beasts looked furious at the same time, since they never imagined that this abominable human was so sinister and stopped by to cause an avalanche just to obstruct their pursuit. Only the hundreds of flying-species demonic beasts in the sky hadn’t been affected and kept flapping their wings after him.

The next one is that mountain valley.

A resolute look was cast on Tang Xiu’s face. He quickly looked back and glanced at the sky behind him. He saw hundreds of flying-species demonic beasts and could feel the aura they emitted out. The group had two at Golden Core Stage while the rest were at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Sect Master.”

In the distance, Mo Awu led two experts of the Tang Sect and dashed faster toward Tang Xiu. They could clearly see the flying-species demonic beasts from afar and knew that they found Tang Xiu’s trail since those beasts were chasing him.

Tang Xiu’s complexion changed and looked restless, for he never thought to meet Mo Awu’s group here.

Huh? Where are the rest? Mo Awu’s group has tens of disciples, how can there be only three of them? Where are the rest of them?

“It’s dangerous. Get here quickly!”

Tang Xiu’s figure rose to the sky. A tens of meters long sword light burst out from his sword and fiercely slashed toward the overwhelming horde of demonic beasts. Overlapping layers of sword light instantly turned into waves of the sea of swords, attempting to steamroll several hundred demonic beasts.

Mo Awu’s group of three bolted forward extremely fast and traversed less than 800 meters in just a few seconds. When they appeared mid-air, Tang Xiu was brandishing his sword and caused the flock of bird-species demonic beasts to become a mess, even killing tens of them directly.

“How can there only be three of you, Awu? Where are the rest in your team?” asked Tang Xiu loudly without looking back.

“They’ve left the mountain range and are now recuperating, Sect Master,” replied Mo Awu in a deep voice. “But one of my team has died in battle, and most of them are seriously injured.”

At his report, Tang Xiu was a bit relieved. Then, he replied in a deep voice, “We have at least thousands of demonic beasts at the back of this mountain peak. Go ahead and wait in that valley in front. I’ll catch up with you immediately after I lay out the geomancy array in front of that valley.”

“But Hao Lei took her team behind that valley, Sect Master,” said Mo Awu hastily. “They are in a dire situation, with some seriously injured and without combat ability. More than a dozen more are also seriously injured and won’t be able to fight well even if they join the battle. If you were to lure this horde of demonic beasts there, it will be equivalent to sending them to their deaths!”

“Say what?!” Tang Xiu was shocked. He gritted his teeth and said, “We don’t have any other option! You go there to aid them to prepare for battle while that horde has yet to catch up. In one minute, I’ll catch up with you all and I need you to resist those bird-species demonic beasts while I seize the time to arrange the array!”

“Understood!” replied Mo Awu without thinking.

Immediately after, he and the other two dashed towards the valley behind. While Tang Xiu was strenuously obstructing hundreds of bird-species demonic beasts and killing one after another, they finally disappeared into the remote valley.

On the sparkling surface of a lake, more than ten demonic beasts were besieging Hao Lei and tens of Tang Sect disciples. As of now, nearly half of them had been seriously injured and only about 20 still had the ability to fight. Furthermore, these tens of demonic beasts were very powerful, with one at the Golden Core Stage.

“KEEP FIGHTING! We’ll be able to get a chance to breathe as long as we kill these demonic beasts. Mo Awu’s group just appeared nearby, but that they haven’t come here only means that there are also some other disciples of our sect nearby!” Hao Lei shouted. Her complexion was pale, and there was a bleeding scar on her forehead, causing the blood to flow down and paint her gorgeous face red. Yet, it also added a valiant and savage aura to her.

“KILL!!!”

The rest of the Tang Sect disciples who suffered minor injuries increased their offensive and struck with renewed power all of a sudden.
