Chapter 234 - Escape from Demise (1/2)

The wound on Ye Chen’s face was initially a deep blood red but it instantly turned black. It was as if it had been painted with some form of corrosive material as white smoke sprouted out from the wound.

Was the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture’s talon poisonous?

Ye Chen shuddered. He invoked the Flying Dagger’s wave of Celestial Chi to envelop his cheeks. He had realized that the wound that the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture left on his cheeks was not poisonous. Instead, it was some form of strange ancient energy where it was able to corrode human flesh!

The Celestial Chi from the Flying Dagger had enveloped the strange ancient energy and quickly consumed it.

Fortunately, Ye Chen had special Celestial Chi in him. Otherwise, this wound would be lethal even to a Heavenly Venerable Rank fighter.

It was at this moment when another Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture had swooped down.

Dong dong dong!

A burst of crackling rang from the punches that Little Wingsy threw at the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures, blasting them away. Little Wingsy had faced four Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures by himself. Although he was not able to destroy the beasts, he could at least strike them back.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, go!” Little Wingsy hurriedly called out as he received a few blows. Fortunately, his body was resilient and would not be wounded so easily.

Ye Chen saw another Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture about to leap on him. He moved his right hand and materialized the Celestial Flying Dagger in his palm.

Whoosh!

The Celestial Flying Dagger struck forward like a bolt of lightning toward the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture.

The Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture had noticed the Celestial Flying Dagger but it made no effort to dodge. It only extended its paws out toward the dagger.

Thump!

The Celestial Flying Dagger pierced through its paw. It did not stop there. With another thump, it had pierced right through the beast’s body.

Hiss!

The Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture shrieked. It hung in mid-air for a moment before parts of its body crumbled into pieces and fell onto the ground.

Right then, Ye Chen made another leap and jumped forward several meters. He was finally able to damage the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures! Ye Chen had thought that these Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were truly invulnerable.

After the momentary pause, the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture shrieked sharply. Again, it charged toward Ye Chen along with several other sculptures.

The extremely sharp Celestial Flying Dagger was able to pierce through their bodies, but it still could not kill them since they were just lifeless sculptures!

Whoosh. Following the call of the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture, the other four sculptures gave up on Little Wingsy. They rushed forward in pursuit of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen froze. Were these sculptures intellectual? How else could they know to change their strategy to ambush him together?

All six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were coming for Ye Chen. He could not escape!

Ye Chen had prepared to activate the Heavenly Astra Seal as a last resort. He could come back out after avoiding this wave of attack. A Celestial Flying Dagger materialized out of his right hand and shot forward.

The Flying Dagger had pierced through the head of one of the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures. It burst with a bang and pieces of crushed rocks splashed around.

Ye Chen was shocked to see that despite losing its head, the Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture was still moving and rushing at him.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, watch out!” Little Wingsy saw that Ye Chen was in trouble. Little Wingsy turned into his primal form where his body size was slightly smaller than his largest form. A thick and strong tail swung forward, sweeping at the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures.

Bang!

The tables and chairs in the hall were obliterated. Five of the six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures swept by Little Wingsy’s tail were sent flying ten meters and crashed hard against the wall.

The remaining Mystical Flying Beast Sculpture that had evaded Little Wingsy’s attack came back up and charged at Ye Chen.

Little Wingsy twisted his tail sharply. With another loud bang, the last sculpture was also sent flying away.

Although the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were hit hard, they did not take any visible damage. With another loud, strange shriek, they came back up and surrounded them again.

“Big Brother Ye Chen, the monsters are back. We have to go!” Little Wingsy said hurriedly.

Ye Chen carried Little Squido and took Little Tanuki. He hopped onto Little Wingsy’s back.

Fortunately, there was enough space. Despite Little Wingsy’s small frame, he still had enough space to move freely. Little Wingsy quickly took flight.

The six Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures were still in hot pursuit. With his right hand, Ye Chen shot one Celestial Flying Dagger after another.

Thump!

Upon collision with the Mystical Flying Beast Sculptures, the sculptures blasted apart and pieces of ashes and dust drifted onto the ground.
