After resting for two hours, the injured people were treated by Yin Ming and recovered a lot.
“Let’s go and try to clear this trail before dark. It’s too dangerous spending the night here.” Huo Li Ruo stood up and said to everyone.
Others stood up one after another and followed him. The Spiritual Plant Masters summoned their contracted spiritual plants and transformed them into armour to protect their bodies. The Body Tempering Masters took out their weapons in a defensive posture.
The eerie and grim feeling of this trail grew stronger the deeper they went, and no one dared to be careless.
Sure enough, after the group of people had been walking for nearly four hours, a scream that sounded like wailing suddenly sounded from all around, making their hairs stand on end.
“Quickly form a formation.” Huo Li Ruo shouted, getting ready to attack.
Soon, everyone saw clusters of wraith-like shadows emerging from behind the charred trees around them.
“Wh-What’s this? Wraiths?” One of them was startled and asked in surprise: “How do you kill these things?”
“These are all demonic spiritual entities summoned by demonic plants. Everyone, attack the position of their hearts.” Huo Li Ruo obviously knew about this demonic plant and immediately reminded everyone behind.
The number of demonic spirits around continued to increase, and they let out shrill cries, floating towards the group.
“Everyone be careful, these demonic spirits will also activate countless white filaments on their bodies. People who are accidentally entangled will be wrapped into a silk chrysalis by more white silks. Their purpose is to absorb the life force of the human body.” Mu’rong Qing said.
Huo Li Ruo pressed his thin lips together, looked at Yu Qing Qian and said: “The demonic spirits summoned by the demonic plants are very difficult to deal with. You’d better not get close, otherwise it’ll be difficult to escape once you’re entangled by the white silk threads.”
He knew that Yu Qing Qian was best at close combat, so he couldn’t resist reminding her to be careful.
Yu Qing Qian’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit right now. She raised the corners of her lips and said: “I’m not just good at close combat.”
After she finished speaking, she rushed out with a [SHIU] without waiting for anyone’s reaction, making Huo Li Ruo’s expression darken immediately.
Then everyone saw Yu Qing Qian pull out a slender soft red whip from her waist and move nimbly among the demonic spirits.
The demonic spirits all activated white silk threads, but she dodged them all.
Afterimages passed by one after another, and wherever the tip of the soft whip passed, a white crystal stone was quickly swept out and flew out.
Then one by one, the demonic spirits tuned into ashes.
Seeing Yu Qing Qian’s figure disappearing and appearing, even more ghostly than the demonic spirits, everyone was dumbfounded again—this woman was simply too strong.
She had refreshed their bottom line in their understandings about her. Whoever says she’s weak in the future, they’d argue in frustration…
“Let’s act too.” Huo Li Ruo’s eyes were filled with crazed enthusiasm, and ice arrows flew towards the demonic spirits. His accuracy and power were much better than before.
Although Yu Qing Qian occupied most of the main force alone, but she still deliberately left out some demonic spirits for others in the team to attack.
Without fighting in an environment of life-or-death danger, these young people would never be able to grow up.
Waves of demonic spirits flew in, and Yu Qing Qian dealt with two-thirds of them, leaving the remaining one-third for the other team members.
Several people in the team found it difficult to fight the remaining one-third of the demonic spirits, and the main force was still Huo Li Ruo and Xiao Zi Kun.
Mental attacks were useless against demonic spirits, so Mu’rong Qing and Xie Shu’s efforts this time were rather small.
The number of demonic spirits around them gradually decreased, and after Yu Qing Qian felt like she killed enough, she folded her arms, watching the group of people fight.
From time to time, she would give some advice or help treat the injured when she saw them.
