Chapter 697: Attack on the cave (2/2)

The trio already reached the entrance of the cave and they even avoided the vines because the human transcendent stage cultivator is carrying the Wight commander and the vines are not reacting to the specter.

Philip and the Gang already noticed them and got ready to fight or flight. By now, Sam has so many Transference scrolls that he gave one to each of his team members. If push comes to shove they can escape, but he highly doubts that they would escape leaving Jack in his situation.

Right when the three enemies are at the entrance of the cave, Philip could estimate the powers of the people that came here. He is the stand-in lead when Sam is away.

He could also guess that the strongest of the three is the human, this made things trickier for them. The human increased the pressure as he attacked the formation that is defending the entrance of the cave.

The team is worried too much about the situation and they decided to attack instead of defending.

There are some inscriptions on the cave walls and they all stood in their respective positions.

This is the final line of defense and since the rest of the lines are not useful, this could be considered as the only line of defense.

As all of them took positions, the formation activated and even the spirit manifested. If one noticed, they could understand that there is no death energy inside the cave, it is just normal spiritual energy and this happened because of some modifications they made.

The whole cave glowed with spiritual energy as the Zoi termite queen and the rest of the locust queens came out of their hiding along with some Bee puppets.

As soon as the three people came inside the cave, they understood that their situation is not as optimistic

The formation spirit is actually a humanoid silhouette with all the elemental energies combined.

There is wind, water, lightning, fire, metal.

The spirit clashed with the human cultivator directly. Actually, this formation was designed to be used by five people including Jack, but since he is not in his conscious, they couldn't do anything about it and only use the formation as it is.

There is also another drawback and that is this formation is not a permanent one. It is actually a temporary one and wouldn't be able to hold on for too long.

The battle started and everyone is fully tense. The transcendent human took the brunt of the attacks and it is an equal challenge. They clashed continuously and the whole cave trembled. At this moment, the bee puppets moved.

The puppets shot the stingers from their tails and it is full of poison mixtures.

They work for both humans and undead anyway, so there is nothing to worry.

After that came the insect queens the battle is so tense that the wight commander is not even qualified to join the battle.

He couldn't even go to the individual positions of the formations, and then he looked at Jack who is standing in the corner as he held his sword, he suddenly had a thought as he heard about the news. The swordsman in Sam's group actually managed to take the legacy from the valley.

He became greedy at the moment and decided to do something.

As soon as he neared him though, the situation turned south, a sword ray destroyed his arm and threw him into the middle of the battle.

The human became distracted instantly and the formation spirit managed to take a good clean hit.

Right at this moment, the human finally lost it and he threw the Wight commander to the cave entrance before going berserk.

The situation turned extremely tense and the cave walls are crumbling because the inscriptions couldn't take the backlash of the battle the time for this is ending.

Philip and the rest of the team are losing due to the sudden berserk human attacks and soon the formation was destroyed.

All the teammates are spitting blood and decided to take out the protection trinkets that Hou Yi gave them. Even all they could do is endure the attacks for a while, that is all they need to do. The transcendent human is also heavily injured and is almost on his long legs.

All they need is some time for Sam to return.

Wight commander is ecstatic as he was only a step away from achieving his goal.

But before they could activate the protection trinkets, something else happened.

Jack who is standing still for more than fifteen days suddenly moved.

With a swing of his sword, the sword energy that was surrounding him since his time in the valley was expelled out of his body tearing his skin apart, and the sword ray that came out of it cut the head off of the transcendent stage human.
