No hope for eternal life

Chapter 157 Duel

Mu Changsheng was not surprised but happy to see this. This was the effect he wanted. He guessed that these monsters were afraid of human cultivators and would not dare to attack actively, so he used the Fiery Sun Talisman to stimulate these monsters and make them chase him actively.

Seeing that their goal had been achieved, Mu Changsheng and Feng Li turned around and ran. While running away, Mu Changsheng did not forget to throw out five Fiery Sun Talismans again to stimulate the group of monsters.

As the leader, the gray wolf monster was the first to be hit by the Fiery Sun Talisman, but it blocked it easily without slowing down. This shows that the cultivation level of this monster should have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, which is one of the important reasons why it was able to command all the monsters.

Mu Changsheng and Feng Li both used the magic talisman, which greatly increased their speed. However, neither of them used their full speed. Instead, they deliberately followed the group of monsters behind them, staying neither too far nor too close.

Soon, Mu Changsheng and the other two returned to the place where Shen Qianliu and the other two were before, but they were no longer there. Mu Changsheng and the other two did not stop and continued to chase the group of monsters behind them.

At the same time, monsters began to disappear one after another in the monster group. At first, the other monsters did not care, because there were so many monsters that the missing ones would not be noticeable.

It was not until the leading gray wolf monster suddenly disappeared that the other monsters realized something was wrong. After counting, they found that the number of monsters that originally numbered more than 200 was now less than 200.

The monsters knew they had fallen into a trap and dared not continue chasing Mu Changsheng and the other two. They immediately turned around and ran back. However, as they ran back, more monsters kept disappearing, making the monsters even more panicked and they fled in all directions.

After the monster ran away, the figures of Shen Qianliu and the other two appeared. It turned out that they did not leave, but were just hiding in a formation that concealed their bodies.

Seeing Ying Shiyi appear, Mu Changsheng immediately said: "Open a formation first."

Ying Eleven didn't waste any time and immediately opened a formation. Five monsters suddenly appeared out of thin air. The reason they disappeared was because they were trapped in the formation that Ying Eleven had set up in advance.

The five monsters were quickly killed by Mu Changsheng and his five companions. Ying Eleven then opened another formation and released the trapped monsters. Mu Changsheng and his five companions surrounded and killed them again.

This was exactly the strategy set by Mu Changsheng, to lure out the group of monsters, trap them with the formation, and then annihilate them separately.

In this way, Ying Eleven opened eleven formations in succession and killed a total of fifty-four monsters, with remarkable results.

Just when Ying Shiyi was about to open the last formation, his expression changed slightly because he sensed that his formation had been broken.

Immediately afterwards, four ferocious monsters appeared in front of everyone. One of them was the gray wolf monster that led the monster group to charge.

After breaking the formation, the four monsters did not run away or attack Mu Changsheng and the others, but stood where they were. Only the leading gray wolf monster took a few steps forward, howling continuously, as if telling something.

Although Mu Changsheng could not understand the beast language, he could read the meaning from the eyes of the gray wolf monster, so he nodded and said: "You want a one-on-one duel, I will satisfy you."

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng said to everyone: "Leave this gray wolf to me, and you can divide the other three monsters among yourselves."

Feng Li glanced at the monsters. She could fight the gray wolf monster a bit, but she didn't care about the other three. So she took the initiative to give way: "You guys go ahead."

Then, the four of them started a fierce battle with the four monsters.

While fighting, Mu Changsheng did not forget to keep an eye on whether the gray wolf monster would self-destruct.

However, the gray wolf monster seemed to know that self-destruction was useless, so it had no tendency to self-destruct.

"Bang!" Mu Changsheng punched the wolf in the belly, causing the gray wolf monster to retreat repeatedly.

After a close combat, the gray wolf monster knew that it was not at an advantage in close combat, so it stopped moving forward and instead accumulated magic power in its mouth. A wave of light shot out of its mouth towards Mu Changsheng.

This is a simple application of Jindan magic power. Although the monster does not know any secret techniques, it can also launch long-range attacks. Combined with its cultivation at the peak of Jindan, the power of this attack is also extremely impressive.

Unfortunately, the Gray Wolf Monster encountered Mu Changsheng who had formed a ninth-grade golden elixir. Mu Changsheng's energy sank into his dantian, and blood began to surge wildly in his body. He punched out, and a bright red fist mark appeared from his fist. "Secret technique, true method blood mark."

This is a true fist seal delivered while using the secret art of blood and qi transformation, which is more powerful.

After the blood mark was cast, it instantly suppressed the light waves spit out by the gray wolf monster and hit the wolf's head.

"Awoo." The gray wolf screamed in pain and was knocked to the ground, but it quickly stood up again, spit out light waves from its mouth again, and rushed towards Mu Changsheng.

"Let's stop here." Mu Changsheng said softly. He guessed that the gray wolf monster had run out of tricks and wanted to self-destruct its golden elixir, but Mu Changsheng did not want to give the other party a chance to self-destruct its golden elixir.

Then, Mu Changsheng changed his fist into a palm, and slapped out nine blood-red palm prints in the air one after another. The nine palm prints continued to merge in the air, quickly forming a huge blood-red palm print, which smashed towards the gray wolf monster with the force of a mountain, "True Method Great Blood Seal."

After the seal, the gray wolf monster turned into a ball of meat paste before it could explode its golden elixir. Although the monster's body was stronger than that of human cultivators at the same level, it was not strong enough to ignore attacks. In addition, the gray wolf had never practiced the secret technique of body refining, so the result was actually already doomed.

As for the light waves emitted by the gray wolf monster, they were easily blocked by Mu Changsheng. The power of this simple condensed magic power attack was not even at the peak Jindan level.

Mu Changsheng walked forward and found the three-patterned demon pill and a pair of sharp wolf fangs from the corpse of the gray wolf monster. Both the demon pill and the wolf fangs could be sold for spirit stones. Combined with some materials accumulated from killing monsters before, they could definitely be sold for a very considerable amount, which could be considered extra income.

On the other side, Shen Qianliu and the other two also dealt with their respective enemy monsters. Only one monster had time to self-destruct, and the rest were killed before they could self-destruct. This shows the strength gap between these monsters that have not practiced any secret techniques and the cultivators.

Afterwards, the five of them gathered together to discuss how to deal with the remaining monsters.

"How many monsters are there?" Mu Changsheng asked Ying Twelve.

Ying Twelve had already done some research on this, and immediately replied: "There are still 154 monsters."

Mu Changsheng pondered for a moment. This was still a number that could not be underestimated. The previous method definitely could not be used again. After all, those monsters were not stupid and would not suffer the same loss twice.

"After this incident, those monsters will definitely hide in their nests and not come out." Shen Qianliu analyzed.

Mu Changsheng nodded slightly, agreeing with Shen Qianliu's statement, but then asked: "The question is how can we lure out the remaining monsters again?"

Everyone was also thinking hard.

After a long while, it was Ying Shiyi who first suggested: "Maybe we don't need to lure them out, but..."

Mu Changsheng thought carefully about Ying Shiyi's suggestion, nodded and said: "I think this method is feasible. Once a monster is found to self-destruct, immediately activate the palm spirit seal and leave the cave."

"It's feasible." Feng Li also said this, and Shen Qianliu and Ying Twelve naturally had no objection.

Finally, the five of them formed a group and rushed towards the monster's lair.

After approaching the monster's nest, the five people continued to rush towards the monster group, as if they wanted to challenge the entire monster group with their own strength.

Many monsters were also frightened by the momentum of the five people, and then, under the leadership of a black tiger monster, all the monsters sprayed out magic light waves and attacked everyone from a distance.
