Chapter 502: Executing Blood Demons

During long battles, they had to be cautious while dealing with Demons. Otherwise, the tables might turn on them.

Everyone moved quickly and they covered the distance of three kilometers in twenty minutes. Soon, the Blood Demons appeared before everyone.

Ping Xingteng waved his hand and a saber appeared. He smiled maniacally and said, “I will take the lead. Let’s see how strong the Blood Demons are in this Deep Sea Battlefield.”

Almost everyone else drew their weapons as well and followed closely behind him. They all seemed extremely excited.

“Boom! Boom!”

The scarlet sea surged with large waves. Ping Xingteng was quite strong. When his attack suddenly burst forth, he heavily injured a middle-ranked Blood Demon in three strikes.

However, Ping Xingteng ended up surrounded by the other nine Blood Demons. Wu Quan drew the great sword on his back and shouted, “Go help him!”

“Dang! Dang! Dang!”

The scene instantly became very chaotic. The members of this makes.h.i.+ft team did not have any rapport with one another. They merely rushed over and attacked the Blood Demons, fighting individual battles.

The advantage of numbers instantly disappeared. When the scarlet water splashed up and struck some of the cultivators’ faces, they even panicked for a while.

Xiao Chen shook his head to himself. However, he could not stand by and do nothing. He could only move around and quickly help out anyone in mortal danger. He tirelessly distracted the Blood Demons.

The only person present who caught Xiao Chen’s regard was the team captain—Wu Quan. This person was very courageous. When he saw that something was wrong, he immediately attracted the attention of three Blood Demons.

His action reduced the pressure on the rest of the team. On the other hand, although Ping Xingteng was strong, he was only interested in slaughtering the Blood Demon he dealt with, ignoring everything that went on around him.

This battle continued for an hour. After five people were lightly injured, they managed to turn the situation to their favor.

“This is great! Ha ha ha ha!” Ping Xingteng wiped off the blood on his face as he roared in excitement. Then he swung his saber in order to kill the final Blood Demon.

Wu Quan quickly stopped Ping Xingteng and said, “Brother Ping, wait for a while. The point from this Blood Demon should be given to Xiao Chen. After all, he was the one who discovered the Blood Demons. Otherwise, we would not have been able to find these Blood Demons. You have already obtained two points.”

As the team captain, Wu Quan was very responsible. Even though he had handled three Blood Demons, he only dealt the final blow to one of them.

He gave the final blow for the other two Blood Demons to his teammates, obtaining only one point for himself.

Ping Xingteng stopped unhappily. Then he said to Xiao Chen, “That’s right. You can have this Blood Demon, then.”

Xiao Chen waved it off and said indifferently, “There is no need. The amount of points here is insufficient to distribute to everyone. I will not create more trouble in this regard.”

Ping Xingteng chuckled. “Brat, you are really tactful. I will not stand on ceremony, then!”

He swung his saber and killed the Blood Demon. One more black dot appeared on his jade pendant.

Wu Quan shook his head. Ping Xingteng had killed these three Blood Demons with his own strength. There was nothing much Wu Quan could say about that.

Following that was the distribution of spoils. The middle-ranked Blood Demons might not have carried a lot of valuable items, but under Wu Quan’s distribution, everyone got something.

The heads of the ten Blood Demons were given to the five injured people. Wu Quan explained to Xiao Chen that these heads could be exchanged for Medicinal Pills or Spirit Herbs at the outpost.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, no one would have any opinion about letting the injured cultivators have the heads.

After the team rested for fifteen minutes, they continued on their way. Xiao Chen scouted ahead for them and never failed to find suitable prey.

Unexpectedly, after fighting for a day, no one was heavily injured. Those hurt suffered only minor injuries; they would recover their combat prowess after some first aid.

When night fell, the dark clouds above became even darker. Now, it was so dark that they could not see their fingers when they stretched their hands out.

When Wu Quan saw someone taking out a Night Pearl for light, he quickly stopped that person. “Don’t do that. The moment you take out the Night Pearl, you will attract all the Demons in the periphery. At that time, you will not survive even if you have nine lives.”

That person was startled and quickly stopped his movements. Wu Quan flipped his hand and took out a house the size of his palm.

After Wu Quan formed some hand seals, the house enlarged and became normal sized; it looked magical.

Wu Quan smiled and said, “This is a Secret Treasure that I found by coincidence. It is useless in battle but it is ideal for resting. Come in!”

There were tables and chairs in the house, as well as all the other necessary furniture. There was even a stove for cooking. Night Pearls inlaid into the ceiling illuminated the rooms. However, this light did not escape the house at all.

Wu Quan smiled and said, “Have a rest here first. Tonight, Xiao Chen and I will take the first watch.”

A cold wind blew at night. However, the scarlet sea did not become quiet. All sorts of strange cries resounded throughout the night.

If some of these cries were heard in the day, it might not have been scary. However, when heard at night, it made one’s hair stand on end.

They could even hear the miserable cries of some unfortunate cultivators captured by Demons in the night and eaten. Their heart-wrenching cries made one afraid.
