Chapter 2447 - 1423:
They didn’t encounter more formidable Demonic Beasts, and it’s not that they didn’t want to explore everywhere in this Magical Treasure; they knew their own strength, and wandering around might be quite dangerous.
They’d rather cultivate more here.
Day and night, they picked flowers and whenever they found Spirit Grass that some Demonic Beasts liked to eat, they would dig a little to plant.
The men and women in their team lived quite comfortably.
Tang Feiyang and Wen Yuanyuan, this couple, sometimes cooked and roasted food with their companions, and they would gather around a separate fire.
In this batch of teams, they were the only married couple, and the display of their affection made others envious.
The Lin Family team led by Lin Daiyu was one of the Ten Great Clans, and they excelled in Saber Techniques.
They had a lineage, and after Lin Dandan married Jiang Tang, she gained more powerful saber techniques.
Originally, they only knew Saber Techniques; their most powerful skill was the Saber Technique.
They had mastery over Saber Techniques, though there were some Skilled Practitioners, but their abilities were not strong enough.
Since they joined the Saint Sect, not only could everyone learn other skills, but even those who couldn’t cultivate at home were able to cultivate.
And they could also learn to be All-Around, so it was no longer just the Saber Technique that was their unique skill.
After all, a beauty wielding a large saber as a Magic Artifact looked a bit coarse.
...
Lin Daiyu once wanted to learn other Magic Artifact skills, imagining being like other women, appearing weak and gentle, not wanting others to see her as a woman resembling a tomboy.
Learning other Spells and other Magic Artifact skills could counter strong with soft, but the use of these skills was still inferior to Saber Techniques.
Over the past few years, she relearned a skill related to ribbons; while others used large sabers, she used ribbons.
At first, it was certainly not possible to confront a large saber.
She became one of the most pretentious in their group.
She liked a man liked by another family as well.
Using ribbons, she showed her supposed frailty, though her weak appearance was merely a guise.
Everyone knew among Human Cultivators, regardless of gender, strength is respected.
Without enough power, one would only be bullied, and without enough power, one would not have a say.
Lin Daiyu had already married a Dugu brother; this action, being able to participate with her husband.
Yet somehow, with so many teams entering the Hell Palace, she got separated from her husband, though her team did not fall apart.
Their team, with over 100 people, encountered a Demonic Beast upon entering Hell Palace.
The Demonic Beast they encountered was a Leopard; with the Leopard’s agility, the abilities of Human Cultivators were not weak either, and their speed was fast too.
Moreover, their team’s highest ability could match a Leopard that had become a King, humans could win the fight.
Lin Daiyu’s team also had Spiritual Pets, they could fight with strength, and they could also design Formations.
The battle power of Spiritual Pets was also strong, not only able to set up formations but also possessing attack skills.
Lin Daiyu was the only one in the team who used a ribbon weapon, apart from using weapons, the men and women in their team also used Spells and Talismans.
With the help of Spiritual Pets, fighting was not slow.
Besides, they also had rapid Magic Artifact skills, even though they couldn’t fly higher in the sky, they didn’t have to stand on the ground either.
In battle, they had a Protective Body, which prevented injuries.
With the help of Spiritual Pets, although they were initially besieged by Leopards, once they reacted, the Leopards couldn’t harm them, and after passive fights, gradually they gained the ability to win over the enemy.
From the start of the confident Leopard King, later on, the teams could feel that the more they fought, the more their abilities were depleted, and Human Cultivators had multiple aids.
The Leopards only had their team, suffering losses by not using formations, relying just on their rapid combat skills.
Human cultivators’ abilities were too strong, while the Leopards only had agile movement techniques to fight with.
The longer the fight continued, the more suffering ensued.
The Leopard King knew that their fighting was just a process.
The Artifact Spirit of Hell Palace gave orders that they had to follow.
But they couldn’t let their team fall into danger.
The strength of Human Cultivators, the Leopards couldn’t refuse even if they were dissatisfied.
With strong and weak among them, it became more common to be defeated and injured by Human Cultivators.
Their wounds bled, while Leopards weren’t as brutal as wolves, they were still wild Demonic Beasts.
When driven mad, they became crazed regardless of anything.
Initially, they only followed the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit’s orders not to fight to the death with Human Cultivators, but that didn’t mean they wouldn’t harm them.
Now, seeing that Human Cultivators weren’t injured, whereas their team was injured.
To avoid mockery by other Demonic Beasts, they stubbornly continued fighting.
They fought from morning till afternoon, continuing from afternoon till dusk.
Darkness was soon approaching.
The Leopards had fought all day, and were exhausted and hungry after such prolonged combat without replenishing their energy.
Even though they could absorb sunlight’s energy during the battle, the energy expended in combat exceeded what they absorbed.
Even the Leopard King couldn’t endure anymore; although they had dispatched the youngest and strongest Leopards with higher abilities this time.
With darkness about to fall, they couldn’t hold on anymore; if they continued fighting, by nightfall, they’d truly be unable to escape.
By then, could ghosts take advantage of their weakened state, and take their lives?
The Leopard King sent a ceasefire message to Lin Daiyu’s team.
Because it had transformed, it could naturally speak human language.
And being able to speak human language meant it could express whatever it wanted to say.
Negotiated with the Human Cultivators, offering to hand over some Spirit Grass in exchange for being spared.
Lin Daiyu’s team didn’t necessarily need to kill these Leopards.
Exchanging was acceptable as well.
Moreover, with nightfall approaching, their team was in a hurry too.
After being busy all day, not to mention the Leopards being exhausted and hungry, the Human Cultivators were people too and needed to replenish food.
They agreed to the Leopard’s suggestion and collected a batch of Spirit Grass, then had their Spiritual Pets release the Leopards trapped in the Formation.
Once the transaction was complete, the Leopards quickly ran away.
While the Leopards and Human Cultivators fought, other types of Demonic Beasts kept their distance.
Lin Daiyu’s team immediately meditated to restore their strength and replenished food, aiming to recover their peak state before nightfall.
Spiritual Pets also needed to replenish energy, refueling with sustenance.
Moreover, they always had their Spiritual Pets protect them, knowing at any time and place in this area, there could be Demonic Beasts or ghosts appearing at night.
Just because they hadn’t encountered Demons didn’t mean none appeared.
Wondering about other teams?
Lin Daiyu was also worried about her husband, unable to contact him within this Magic Artifact!
After replenishing energy and eating food, they temporarily consumed the food they brought, with no barbecuing or searching for food in this urgent time.
Lin Daiyu’s team indeed encountered ghosts as night fell.
Even in the Formation, they could feel the distant Ghost Flames and nearby Ghost Flames drifting over.
Whether in the sky or on land, Ghost Flames shone.
Within the protection of the Formation, they could feel the power from the ghosts.
Lin Daiyu and her team saw the approaching Ghost Flames and realized the powerful ghosts within the flames.
They remained still, knowing that inside the Formation, it wasn’t easy for those ghosts to breach their defense.
After all, the Formation designed by the Spiritual Pets of the over 100 cultivators in their team was incredibly strong.
It was temporarily able to protect them, preventing them from being startled by the numerous ghosts.
Of course, they also stayed ready for combat at any moment.
However, these ghosts perhaps didn’t notice them, or maybe were just accustomed to wandering in the night.
If the ghosts didn’t collide with their Formation, nothing would happen.
If they did collide, naturally they’d be repelled.
The ghosts bounced back, confused by the rebounding force, would retreat far away in fear.
