Second-level demonic beast!

  "Ah!!!!!!"

  If the previous howl of the monster didn't count for anything, then the next human scream really scared everyone, and all faces changed as they turned to look towards the side of the cave.

  "Are there really other people deep in this cave? How is it possible..."

  Zheng Kai's eyes widened in shock, because previously everyone had traveled all the way without finding any signs of human passage, so how could there still be someone deep in this cave?

  Divine sense outside the square, that's what can be done after the golden elixir. Most people don't know what's going on inside, but Zheng Kai instinctively felt something was off. He didn't intend to go in and investigate or rescue anyone, but instead said in a low voice: "There must be a fierce demon beast! This place is not suitable for staying for long, let's hurry..."

  But before he could finish speaking, the crowd clearly heard a flurry of hurried and panicked footsteps, followed by a figure dashing out from the depths of the dark cave!

  Everyone subconsciously looked over, but Zheng Kai's eyes narrowed and he exclaimed unexpectedly: "He Yuan!!"

  Looking at his reaction, he actually knew that person, and He Yuan also saw the crowd, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "Zheng Kai!! It's you! Great! Help me quickly..."

  "Wow!!"

  A shrill cry interrupted He Yuan's words, and then everyone saw a red shadow flash behind him, followed by a massive figure bursting out!

  Lin Feng vaguely saw that behind He Yuan, there seemed to be another figure. However, when the red shadow rushed out, this figure was swept to the side of a boulder, and the red shadow seemed more interested in He Yuan, ignoring this person and directly charging towards He Yuan.

  "Second-level Flame-tailed Scorpion!!"

  Zheng Kai's face changed greatly as soon as he saw clearly the red shadow that rushed out!

  The gigantic red shadow that rushed out was clearly a fire-tailed scorpion, but the size of this scorpion was at least twice as large as any one Lin Feng had seen before, it was like a car. The most terrifying thing was the high-raised scorpion tail, with a basin-sized flame burning on the tip of the tail, like a burning sharp sword, making people tremble with fear.

  Even without others saying it, Lin Feng could guess that this fire-tailed scorpion was definitely a second-level demon beast!

  A second-level demonic beast is equivalent to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and it's absolutely not something that a few minor Qi Refining cultivators can handle!

  "Hiss!"

  At the moment when Lin Feng and others were shocked, they saw that the second-level fire-tailed scorpion let out a sharp cry again, its huge tail swung, and a basketball-sized flame suddenly shot out and roared towards He Yuan!

  Flame Shot, this is probably the lowest level of divine ability attack, but the power of this fireball is not to be underestimated, absolutely more powerful than Lin Feng's second-level Fireball Symbol activation.

  "Cheers!!"

  A strong gust of wind whistled from behind, He Yuan turned his head back, and his face suddenly changed color. He immediately let out a light drink, and the true yuan in his body surged up. A layer of transparent air wall suddenly appeared in front of him, and then only heard a loud "boom" sound, the fireball exploded half a foot in front of him, but was blocked by the air wall.

  "True yuan forms walls, foundation-building period!"

  Lin Feng's eyes lit up, and he was slightly shocked in his heart. The other party's move was far more brilliant than the defensive energy wall formed by Zheng Kai's true energy release during their previous battle. This was something that could only be achieved after reaching the foundation-building stage and specializing in true yuan. In other words, He Yuan was actually a foundation-building stage cultivator!

  Seeing this scene, Lin Feng's heart relaxed a bit, but at the same time, he was also somewhat puzzled: since He Yuan was also in the foundation-building period, why was he still so miserable? Wasn't he just in the early stage of foundation building, and that Fire-Tailed Scorpion wasn't even mid-stage yet?

  In the midst of Lin Feng's astonishment, he only saw He Yuan flash to Zheng Kai's side like lightning and quickly said: "Zheng Kai, this guy is a second-level three-stage, one level higher than me. We previously killed another one inside, a fellow cultivator at the third layer of foundation building sacrificed himself, and I was also injured. I alone can't handle it, but with your help, we will definitely be able to kill him!"

  "Damn it!!" Seeing the opponent directly pulling the fire-tailed lizard this way, making it clear that he would drag them down with him regardless of whether they agreed or not, Zheng Kai was secretly furious. However, if he were to run away now, it would probably be even more dangerous. He hesitated for only a moment before making his decision, saying in a low voice, "Qin Ye, Lin Feng, Lu Cheng, you guys retreat! Duanmu Rui, cover me from the side, I'll take care of this beast with He Yuan!"

  Facing a second-level demonic beast, Zheng Kai also felt somewhat apprehensive in his heart. However, he had an extreme-quality artifact armor on his body, and the long sword in his hand was also an extreme-quality artifact. Moreover, he still had life-saving talismans that hadn't been used yet. It wasn't as if he didn't have any strength to fight back. Furthermore, with He Yuan from the foundation-building period cooperating with him, it shouldn't be difficult to kill this fire-tailed scorpion that wasn't in its peak state. The problem was that Lin Feng and the others were far too weak, participating in the battle would be no different from seeking death, and they might even become severely injured or dead with just a casual sweep of the demonic beast's claws.

  ……

  Zheng Kai joined the battle, and He Yuan's heart was greatly settled. In fact, even if he were alone, he might not be able to kill this fire-tailed scorpion, but it was too dangerous. Now with Zheng Kai and Duanmu Rui assisting him from the side, his grasp had increased a lot. He no longer fled, but instead swung the long sword in his hand, turning around to launch an attack on the fire-tailed scorpion.

  At that moment, the three people launched a fierce battle around the second-level fire-tailed scorpion. The scorpion let out ear-piercing screams as its massive tail and giant pincers danced wildly in the air. However, the three individuals were too agile and managed to dodge the attacks. Unfortunately, the surrounding rocks did not fare so well, with loud rumbling sounds echoing through the air as even boulders two or three meters in size were instantly pulverized by a single swipe of the scorpion's tail, sending the onlookers' hearts racing with fear.

  The Huo Wei Xie's attack was powerful, but what shocked Lin Feng even more was the display of his opponent's origin. This was still his first time seeing a Jiedan stage cultivator fight, and he had no idea how many times faster or stronger they were than him.

  Moreover, He Yuan's body was not lacking in magical treasures. The long sword that had been knocked out of his hand during the battle was immediately replaced by another long knife, which also contained a storage ring. Additionally, he would occasionally pull out an ice thorn spell card and throw it out during the fight. It was a one-time use second-level ice thorn spell, with a power stronger than Lin Feng's linked ice thorns. The fire-tailed scorpion let out shrill cries as it was struck.

  Lin Feng was momentarily mesmerized, thinking that killing the second-level Fire-Tailed Scorpion would be easy, but just then, a muffled hum made everyone's heart suddenly tighten!

  However, Duanmu Rui was caught off guard for a moment and was swept by the fire-tailed scorpion's giant pincers. Although he used his long spear to block it, the spear immediately flew out of his hand, and he himself was thrown more than ten meters away, crashing into a huge boulder, spitting out a mouthful of blood!!

  "Ah Lei!!"

  Qin Ye was suddenly frightened and lost her composure, running over without regard for anything. Lin Feng and Lu Cheng exchanged a glance and also hurried after her. Duanmu Rui was helped up by the crowd and with difficulty said "I'm fine", but this didn't look like someone who was fine at all - probably several ribs were broken and he couldn't fight anymore.

  "Damn it!! My magic is exhausted!"

  Just then, Lin Feng heard He Yuan's angry roar again, and it seemed that things had suddenly taken a turn for the worse...

  "Magic symbols... Ah! Magic symbols!!"

  Suddenly, Lin Feng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but reveal his secret anymore. With a flip of his right hand, he pulled out a stack of colorful talismans and stuffed them into Qin Ye and Lu Cheng's hands.

  "Come!! One person two cards, let's use spell symbols for remote firepower support together!!"

  Two linked Ice Stinger Talismans were given to Qin Ye, two linked Wind Blade Talismans were given to Lu Cheng. Lin Feng held one Linked Purple Thunder Talisman in each hand, let out a low growl, suddenly turned around to face the Fire-Tailed Scorpion, and without hesitation, raised his hands as two purple thunders burst forth!

  "Crack! Crack!!"

  Two purple lightning bolts shot out and exploded on the Fire-tailed Scorpion's body, causing it to stumble, and also startling everyone else.

  Qin Ye and Lu Cheng also reacted immediately, without having time to wonder how Lin Feng still had so many precious linked talismans. They stood beside Lin Feng at once, simultaneously activating the talismans in their hands. In an instant, gusts of wind blades, ice stabs, and purple lightning bolts surged forward, bombarding the Fire-tailed Scorpion in front of them.

  He Yuan and Zheng Kai were momentarily stunned, then suddenly overjoyed, and immediately launched a fierce attack on the 'flustered' Huo Wei Xie.

  Under the cover of a storm of firepower, the second-level fire-tailed scorpion gradually became unable to withstand it, and was finally beheaded by He Yuan with one knife, and died.
