Chapter 2422 - 1411
Feng Qingcheng called back the other two groups of companions.
Only to find the other two groups looking dejected.
In the end, the hundred or so people who pursued the ox quickly tracked it down.
However, as they tracked the ox, these gifts began to attack.
The ox’s attack was, of course, its horns, and it launched a frenzied assault on the human cultivators, who then realized that the ox’s attack was no weaker than the aerial attacks of the flying demonic beasts.
They then discovered that the ox was not so cumbersome; when jumping and attacking, the ox could actually fly alongside humans in battle.
Moreover, the ox was incredibly powerful; its horns served as weapons, clashing against the human cultivators’ magic artifacts, and those horns also emitted blades.
People only knew that the ox, a demonic beast, emitted combat power from its horns because it could harness power from its limbs, making the horns potentially as sharp as weapons.
What they didn’t anticipate was that the ox, a demonic beast, could emit sword blades from its horns, making it appear more formidable in combat than horses.
The horse’s combat power lies in its speed and the ability to produce sound.
The ox hadn’t yet unleashed any magical sound power, but now they witnessed the ox’s prowess—not just its combat strength but also its ferocity.
They couldn’t imagine the monstrous strength of the demonic ox they encountered.
This group, facing such powerful demonic oxen, fought very hard—the blades nearly shattered their protective shields.
They fought to exhaustion, almost using up all their energy; by the end, there were minor injuries, as humans aren’t beasts and do feel fatigue—even after taking Spirit Supplement Pills and healing pills.
Yet, the ox’s fierce force caused them slight injuries; from initially underestimating these demonic beasts’ combat power, they later learned that these oxen and the Monkey King’s abilities, although lacking formations, had their advantages.
Escaping from the herd of oxen was indeed not easy; confronting stubborn oxen, when angered, these full-grown oxen became uncontrollably wild, putting up a strenuous resistance.
At this point, the physical abilities of both genders were evident; the girls, with agility and evasive maneuvers, couldn’t match the oxen’s strength.
Confronting force with force would only result in injury.
The male cultivators wanted to protect the girls but found they first had to protect themselves.
Because their formidable strength was no match for these oxen.
Nor could they rival the wild oxen in madness.
If it weren’t for their bodyguard skills, the protective skills of their magic artifacts, or their self-crafted spells,
If they didn’t have protective equipment and the shielding skills of flying artifacts, they would have been defeated by the oxen, not just lightly.
The Feng Family members bore their pride, even though they were young and inexperienced in battling such peculiar demonic beasts.
Repeatedly defeated or injured by the demonic beasts from the magic treasure they were in, they were nearly driven insane by the scenes before them.
The scenario before them nearly reached the agreed-upon time.
By evening, they would have to rendezvous for the night’s battle.
Thus, they didn’t dwell on the fight, storming out of the oxen’s siege.
They became aware that the red-clad individuals, those with red magic artifacts, were the primary reason the ox went wild.
Perhaps the ox realized, defeating these intruders was necessary, lest they become slaughtered.
Turned into food on human tables.
A frenzied ox’s combat strength considerably surpassed that of a non-frenzied ox.
The Feng Family initially didn’t know the main cause of the ox’s madness: many people’s magic artifacts bore red ribbons or certain girls favored red vestments.
Among this group, the Feng Family’s distinctive sign was the red markings on their magic artifacts.
These individuals, after breaking through the siege, appeared very haggard, returning to the rendezvous point empty-handed.
Another group of Feng Family members tracked the sheep, originally assuming sheep were weaker than horses and oxen, easier to track and slaughter.
Sheep appeared weak and powerless to people.
This was also an eye-opener for the Feng Family, as the sheep’s speed was exceptionally fast—not lagging behind oxen or horses.
In this Hell Palace magic treasure, amid many demonic beasts, the sheep thrived well not because the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit protected them.
They naturally had their abilities; Sheep Village’s running proficiency also had a unique skill—during their run, they inherently led the pursuers gradually into their protective pits.
Appearing as fast runners, they were actually digging small pits during their race.
These pits were not traps—if humans flew instead of running on the ground, they wouldn’t get trapped, unable to escape.
Human flight also encountered resistance during the sheep’s sprint.
Despite it being daytime in Hell Palace, there was no gravity to deliver a wave of gravitational pull from outside.
The Feng Family certainly didn’t expect the sheep’s demonic beast capabilities; during their tracking, they faced resistance.
