Chapter 493: Escape
Liu Ming and others held a colorful disk array in their hands. After pouring in spiritual power, the disk arrays flashed slightly.
Chen Deng was now hovering in the air at the center of the magic array. He threw out a green jade disk array in his hand. He started chanting while he kept launching symbols at the disk arrau.
The green jade disk array immediately spun in bright green light. A slender green light suddenly shot out from it, hitting the disk array in the hands of the disciple closest to him, then it quickly bounced to other adjacent disciples.
In a blink of an eye, the green light had bounced for more than ten times. After each bounce, the green light of the disk array became thicker. When it was bounced by the last disk array, the green light had the thickness of an adult arm.
When the green light bounced back into the disk array in front of Chen Deng again, the twenty arrays cores around him were all linked together.
“Activate.”
After Chen Deng shouted, there was a green big flag in his hand, then he waved with great effort.
At the same time, the magic arrays everywhere flashed green at the same time. Liu Ming and others also made gestures to launch symbols into the disk array in their hands.
There was an astonishing violent shaking in the area of the magic array, and countless big runes emerged out of it. The runes condensed and intertwined mysterious patterns above the magic array.
A burst of howling!
The patterns turned into a series of green and misty tornado pillars soaring out into the sky, turning into a sea of green wind that directly crashed into the fire clouds above the canyon not far away.
In the next moment, the large fire clouds began to roll violently like boiling water, and began to quickly disperse from the edge.
With the continuous waving of the green flag in Chen Deng’s hand, successive red green wind pillars shot out. In a blink of an eye, the original dense fiery red clouds were mostly dispersed at once.
The fire spirits in the canyon were suddenly reduced.
Seeing this situation, all the eager disciples all around suddenly showed joy. Although the remaining fire clouds were still thick, they were no longer concerned by that.
“Go. Let’s rush in! Junior Fellow Apprentice Chen, you continue to channel the array. Don’t let the fire clouds gather again.” The dark-skinned young man said loudly. After making a gesture with one hand, a layer of blue light appeared on his body surface. He was the first one to rise into the sky and rushed toward the entrance of the canyon.
Seeing this, the dozens of disciples behind also rushed over.
When they entered the canyon, they immediately released their spiritual weapons one after another, turning into waves of radiant that dispersed the heat wave. They soon disappeared in the residual fire clouds.
After a while, there was a fierce blast from the depths of the canyon. It seemed that the young man surnamed Lin had already fought with the fire spirits and fire beasts inside.
As the deafening sound continued to come, it was vaguely mixed with the roar of spirit beasts and the collision of spiritual weapons.
Listening to the sounds coming from inside, the disciples who stayed outside to control the magic array began to get excited. Since there were so many spirit beasts in the canyon, there must be a great possibility that there was a treasure hidden inside.
A few disciples who chose to stay could not help regretting greatly.
When the contribution points were split, those who remain outside would get lesser contribution points than those who rushed in.
Liu Ming faintly looked at the direction of the canyon, and he kept replacing the wind attribute crystal stones that depleted spiritual power.
At this moment, the magic array continue to blast out red green wind pillars, impacting the fire clouds all over the canyon. However, these fire clouds seemed to be pulled by a force. Once they were dispersed, they soon gathered again.
When the crowds fought inside, the spiritual power that needed to be used to drive away the fire clouds was far beyond the imagination of Liu Ming and others.
He checked the storage amulet in his hand with Divine Thought and found that only less than half of the crystal stones remained inside.
These wind attribute crystal stones that maintained the magic circle were collected from the outer disciples, then they were evenly distributed to Liu Ming and others who maintained the magic circle. But from the current consumption, the magic circle couldn’t be maintained for long. Once the fire clouds couldn’t be dispersed, those who rushed in would be in huge trouble.
“Brother Liu, there are not much wind attribute crystal stones left. If this continues, I’m afraid that this large array can only hold for about ten minutes.” At this moment, Zang Xuan’s voice sounded in Liu Ming’s ears.
“We have no choice now. Just maintain it as long as we can,” Liu Ming replied with a faint voice transmission.
“According to this trend, without the support of the magic array, these fire clouds will inevitably gather together again. With the increase of the fire clouds, those who enter it may fall into a hard fight.” Zang Xuan looked up at the sky and said very calmly.
“At this time, we can only act according to the situation. I always feel that even without this fire clouds, this fire spirit tribe might not be so easy to take down.” Liu Ming replied in a deep voice.
“Oh, did Brother Liu realize something about it?” Zang Xuan’s voice was a little surprised.
“Not really, it’s just my little intuition.” Liu Ming replied after a moment of silence.
This left Zang Xuan speechless for a while.
Just as the two communicated with each other, there was a sudden scream in the direction of the canyon. It came quickly from the far distance. After a blue light flashed, a blue rainbow blasted at the direction of Liu Ming and others.
After the blue light faded in the air, a figure appeared vaguely. It was the dark-skinned man surnamed Lin!
At this moment, he looked embarrassed. Most of his clothes were torn, and his hair and clothes had burnt marks.
“Everyone, run now! There are a lot of fire spirit beasts hidden in the canyon. There are no lack of high rank spirit beasts of Condensation State, and they are very violent. We are not opponents at all!” As soon as the man surnamed Lin appeared, he shouted.
Behind him, the disciples who had rushed in were rushing out of the canyon one after another. Almost all of them were wounded. Half of their body was bloody, and their expressions were extremely flustered.
Of the forty people who rushed into the canyon before, now fewer than thirty people had come out!
What was even more shocking was that as the red light flashed in the sky toward the canyon, large fire clouds rolled out. The red light flashed densely in the fire clouds. There were horrifying roars of beasts coming out from the clouds. There were countless spirits beasts swarming at those outer disciples who were fleeing ahead.
Seeing this, the people who stayed outside were shocked. They couldn’t bother about maintaining the array. They all threw the disk array in their hands and cast their spiritual weapons and talismans.
Although everyone did not know what was happening in the canyon that caused so many spirit beasts suddenly swarmed out, in the present situation, it was naturally more important to run for their lives.
All of a sudden, colorful rays of light appeared everywhere, and those who reacted faster had already turned and flew away.
Zang Xuan saw that the situation was not good, and he instantly dived underground with a yellow flash on his body. He had already travelled several tens of meters away in the blink of an eye.
Yan Ming and Xue Yun also immediately cast a sailboat spiritual weapon. After jumping up, they immediately turned into a white rainbow that blasted away. The speed wasn’t any slower than the purple-eyed young man.
However, the person with the fastest reaction was Liu Ming who had been staring at the canyon from the beginning.
He had already thrown away the disk array, turned around and flew away with black clouds on his feet.
However, instead of subconsciously following the young man surnamed Lin in front of him like most people, he turned at the corner and went in the same direction where he came from.
Chen Deng, who was originally hovering in the air, sighed and hurriedly put away the disk array and flag in his hand, cast a flying car and flew into the air.
The same scene happened shortly afterward in several other fire spirit tribes.
These tribes also gathered a lot of outer disciples, and there were a huge amount of fire spirit beasts gathering in the tribes.
For a time, the entire Small Flame World was covered with a layer of bloody shadow.
……
…
Half an hour later, on a flat ground outside the fire red forest not far from the canyon, Liu Ming was surrounded by eight wolf-shaped spirit beasts.
The eyes of these fire wolves were bloodshot, and they were roaring while pouncing at Liu Ming.
Liu Ming shook his body slightly, and easily avoided several attacks. After a little observation, he noticed the strangeness of these fire wolves.
On the way to the canyon earlier, he also encountered these wolf-shaped spirit beasts, but at that time, although these fire spirit beasts were ferocious, he could still see a trace of rationality.
But now, these red-eyed fire wolves no longer have the slightest sense of reason. They had turned into bloodthirsty monsters that fanatically attacked anyone they met.
Liu Ming raised his hand expressionlessly, and the blue flying sword in his hand immediately flew out with a hum, turning into a long crystal rainbow.
The fire wolve ahead couldn’t even make a sound before slashing into half by the blue rainbow. Its blood and internal organs were falling down like dead branches and rotten leaves.
But the seven fire wolves in the back didn’t seem to be moved by this scene at all. They still pounced at him in a roar.
The blue rainbow became blurred and transformed into dense sword shadows. The sword shadows surrounded the remaining fire wolves in a whistling sound.
With the sound of a burst of brocade breaking, the fire wolves present were cut into dozens of pieces in an instant. Their bloody corpses scattered on the ground.
After the blue sword aura suddenly vanished, the sky full of sword shadows disappeared suddenly. It turned back to the small blue sword and flew back to Liu Ming’s hand.
After that, his figure flashed and went into the fire red forest near him.
Not long after Liu Ming Fang disappeared, there was a beast roaring in the distance. It was followed by a large group of fire spirit beasts surging from all directions. They all followed him into the woods.
…
An hour later, there was a pile of rocks.
Liu Ming, dressed in a green robe, was standing in it with his whole body wrapped in black gas. An ox-like fire beast in the size of thirty meters was standing in front of him, faintly exuding the cultivation of the Condensation Period.
This fire spirit beast had a pair of curved horns on its heads. Its huge head was covered with a layer of red scales. Its eyes were red and full of endless tyranny. Its body was covered with black and red patterns.
Suddenly, this beast stomped the ground and charged at him.
