“Roar!”

Two Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters roared fiercely, then simultaneously collided with Zhao Ruizheng’s sword.

Zhao Ruizheng’s face turned slightly pale. The strength of these monsters was no weaker than beasts of the same level, and perhaps even a bit stronger.

Facing such simultaneous attacks, it was already commendable that Zhao Ruizheng managed to withstand without breaking his defense.

“Break!”

With a low shout from Zhao Ruizheng, the moon behind him shattered instantly. Boundless cold air pervaded the surroundings as waves surged into the sky, completely engulfing Zhao Ruizheng and the two monsters.

Chen Fei, holding the Shadow Lock Bow, shot an arrow. The monster he was facing, engaged in combat with Tang Shouchang, seemed to sense something, leaping into the air and colliding with the arrow instead.

Anticipating your anticipation!

The instinctual killing power of the monster was formidable, but Chen Fei’s judgment, bolstered by various high-level techniques, was even stronger!

A huge gap appeared on the monster’s body, and with a loud shout from Tang Shouchang, his Cloud Breaker Blade swept across its neck, cleaving the monster in two.

Before the monster’s head hit the ground, Chen Fei shot another arrow, blasting it mid-air. Then, he drew his bow again, aiming at the monster in front of Zhao Tianyue.

Tang Shouchang’s Cloud Breaker Blade flashed as he dealt with the remains of the monsters.

The monster in front of Zhao Tianyue met a fate similar to Tang Shouchang’s, first having its attack stance broken by Chen Fei’s arrow, then being swiftly dealt with by the combined efforts of Chen Fei and Zhao Tianyue.

Apart from their fearlessness in the face of death, these hastily formed monsters were, to some extent, weaker than beasts and demon kings of the same level.

But the premise was that you could find and exploit their weaknesses; otherwise, these monsters were still quite troublesome.

With the swift changes in the situation, there were only two Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters left in the field. The battle was far from over; the difficulty of dealing with Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters far exceeded that of dealing with Fourth-Tier early-stage ones.

More importantly, Chen Fei and his companions were only at the early stage of the Mountain Sea Realm.

Seeing Chen Fei and the others finish the battle, Zhao Ruizheng felt slightly relieved.

Facing the siege of two Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters, one could truly feel the pressure.

These monsters simply didn’t care if they got hurt; they just fought with all they had. Dealing with one was manageable, but with two, Zhao Ruizheng found himself pinned down, only able to defend himself.

He had said he could hold out against the two for fifteen minutes, but Zhao Ruizheng understood that he had overestimated his own abilities.

Fortunately, Chen Fei and his companions were strong enough to slay the other monsters.

With a low shout, Zhao Ruizheng swiped his sword, knocking one monster away, but he himself was sent flying by another.

As the monster that was knocked away attempted to pounce back at Zhao Ruizheng, Tang Shouchang and Zhao Tianyue had already intercepted it.

Feeling the ferocious aura of this Fourth-Tier mid-stage monster, Tang Shouchang and Zhao Tianyue couldn’t help but tremble slightly. It was an instinctive reaction when facing a creature much stronger than themselves.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Sonic clouds appeared behind Chen Fei as several arrows materialized in front of the monster. The first three arrows were swatted away by the monster’s hand, leaving only minor wounds on its clawed back.

The fourth arrow did manage to lodge itself in the monster’s shoulder, but it only caused a small wound the size of a bowl.

Such an injury on a practitioner of the Mountain Sea Realm would be considered significant, even affecting their ability to cast spells.

But on the monster, there was not even the slightest pause. It immediately struck at Tang Shouchang and Zhao Tianyue’s weapons.

“Boom!”

Amidst the explosion, Tang Shouchang and Zhao Tianyue involuntarily took two steps back. Even with both of them defending simultaneously, they couldn’t withstand the terrifying power of the monster.

The monster roared to the sky, its figure appearing before Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang in an instant, another claw swiping towards them.

At this moment, there was still a tremendous force within Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang’s bodies that had not been fully unleashed. If they were to directly block the monster’s claw again, they might be sent flying along with their weapons, ending up as easy prey.

Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang took a deep breath, directly igniting their soul flames and invoking secret techniques, their momentum suddenly rising.

Seeing the change in Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang, the monster’s eyes remained savage, and the trajectory of its claws showed no deviation. However, in the next moment, the monster unexpectedly crossed its arms in front of itself.

“Hiss!”

A golden light flashed, silently disintegrating a large portion of the monster’s clawed back.

But it didn’t end there. Several more flashes of golden light followed, causing the monster to retreat repeatedly, huge gaps appearing on its body, all dissolved by the attacks.

Chen Fei stood in the distance, drawing his bow and shooting arrows.

However, the arrows at this moment were slightly different from before. Along with the arrows, he invoked the illusion of the Xuanyuan Sword.

The illusion of the Xuanyuan Sword couldn’t carry too much elemental energy, but with the true spirit of the Xuanyuan Sword within it, combined with the original arrows, its attack power increased significantly.

However, the true spirit within the illusion was too scarce. Although Chen Fei managed to force the monster to retreat repeatedly and inflict numerous wounds, the surrounding black mist surged, rapidly healing these wounds.

Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang appeared before the monster, striking together, but they could only add a few more superficial wounds to its body.

The injuries inflicted by the two of them were not as significant as those caused by Chen Fei alone.

“The monster’s recovery ability has increased since last time!”

Zhao Ruizheng cleaved open the Fourth-Tier mid-stage monster before him with a sword, his heart sinking as he observed the situation in the field.

Zhao Ruizheng had encountered Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters when he was with other teams before, and he had even killed some. It was precisely because of this experience that he dared to intercept two monsters.

And Zhao Ruizheng was thinking about swiftly killing one monster himself, then teaming up with Chen Fei and the others to kill the other.

The plan sounded good, but reality didn’t go as planned.

Now that he was truly facing them, he realized that while the changes in Fourth-Tier early-stage monsters were not very significant, the recovery ability of these Fourth-Tier mid-stage monsters had increased significantly, making them incomparable.

Zhao Ruizheng could kill the Fourth-Tier mid-stage monster before him, but it would take time, and evidently, the monsters on Chen Fei’s side wouldn’t give him that time.

“You guys go first, I’ll hold them off!” Zhao Ruizheng shouted loudly.

While the others were still uninjured and Zhao Ruizheng still had strength left, perhaps he could retreat safely in the end.

The decision earlier was his, so naturally, he had to bear the consequences.

As soon as Zhao Ruizheng’s words fell, seemingly stung by Chen Fei’s arrow, the monster’s body suddenly turned as black as ink. Although its wounds hadn’t healed, its momentum skyrocketed.

In the next moment, a claw as black as ink slammed onto the weapons of Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang.

Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang were currently at their peak fighting strength while burning their soul flames, but being struck by the monster’s claw, their faces changed drastically.

Amidst the roar, Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang were slammed straight into the ground, creating a deep pit. Huge cracks spread in all directions from the center of the impact, with Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang at the core.

One claw of the monster was held in front of its head, ready to fend off any possible arrows, while the other claw struck towards Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang.

The two struggled fiercely, but the force of the monster’s previous blow not only knocked them to the ground but was also wreaking havoc inside their bodies.

They couldn’t muster the strength to dodge or resist, only able to watch helplessly as the monster’s claw drew closer and closer to them.

A sense of impending doom engulfed their bodies, and the world seemed to slow down. Everything they had experienced flashed before their eyes involuntarily.

In the next moment, their bodies were about to be torn apart, turned into a pulp, unrecognizable.

Zhao Ruizheng’s eyes widened suddenly, and he erupted with all his strength. However, the monster before him also turned as black as ink in an instant, resisting Zhao Ruizheng’s attack.

“Boom!”

A massive explosion resounded, shaking the ground violently. Zhao Tianyue instinctively closed his eyes, feeling as if his heart was about to stop beating, but the anticipated intense pain didn’t come.

When Zhao Tianyue opened his eyes again, he saw a figure standing before him, like a god descending from the heavens!

Tang Shouchang didn’t close his eyes; he watched as Chen Fei appeared, holding the Qianyuan Sword, blocking the attack of the Fourth-Tier mid-stage monster.

Tears welled up in Tang Shouchang’s eyes.

Brother Chen, you finally drew your sword!
