Chapter 139: Bait in a Cage, Scheming Against Each Other!
With this thought in mind, the blue-haired youth turned around and was prepared to leave. However, at this moment, a piece of bad news reached his ears.
“I’m sorry, but you can’t leave. There’s a formation barrier.”
“What?”
The blue-haired youth was stunned for a moment. Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his head as he crashed into an invisible barrier of light.
What was this?
In a flash, before the blue-haired youth could think about it, a few tentacles followed behind the blue-haired youth and whizzed over.
Boom!
With a loud sound, the blue-haired youth narrowly avoided the attack. The tentacles slammed heavily into the barrier of the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation, causing it to shake violently. Victor exhaled a breath of cold air. What a powerful attack!
The casual attack from the tentacle had already caused the spell formation to shake violently. If the Filthy Marsh Beast attacked with all its might, it might be able to tear the spell formation apart!
Although the spell formation could withstand the attacks of cultivators below the foundation establishment realm, the Filthy Marsh Beast was not a cultivator. Its attack power was much stronger than cultivators of the same level.
The blue-haired youth’s face changed. Barrier?
How could the Filthy Marsh Beast release a barrier?
He naturally thought that the barrier came from the Filthy Marsh Beast. He would never have thought that he was actually tricked by Victor.
In the blue-haired youth’s impression, Victor did not have the ability to set up such a strong barrier. Even if he had the ability, there was no reason for him to use a barrier to lock himself inside.
“What should we do?”
The blue-haired youth panicked and had no way to retreat. Meanwhile, the Filthy Marsh Beast had already locked onto him!
At this time, Victor took advantage of the opportunity when the Filthy Marsh Beast was attracted by the blue-haired youth to grab the middle-grade spiritual energy stone to recover his strength. The power of nature was almost ready.
“Brothers, there are two cultivators in front to deal with the mud monster. Let’s hold off the beast horde! As long as we manage to hold on, when the two cultivators kill the monster, we will win!”
A captain shouted in the middle of the army formation.
However, his words did not have much effect.
Anyone could see that the blue-haired man and Victor were at a disadvantage in front of the mud monster. The blue-haired youth had been forced into a dangerous situation ever since he had injured the monster.
Victor was not as good as the blue-haired youth. He had been dodging on the outside and had not attacked at all.
Under such circumstances, they were already lucky enough to survive, let alone kill it.
But even so, no soldier retreated. Behind them was Qingshan Town, where their parents, wives, and children were. Once Qingshan Town was gone, they would all die miserably.
Under such circumstances, how could they retreat?
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The four tentacles lashed out like whips. The blue-haired youth dodged them in a sorry state. How could he fight back now?
Occasionally, he could release a few streaks of sword energy to attack the defensive formation of the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation.
However, the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation was not something that the blue-haired youth could break. When the sword energy cut through it, the defensive formation did not even shake.
“Kid, I… I have already attracted… its attention. Quick… quick… attack the Filthy Marsh Beast! Otherwise, we will all die.”
The blue-haired youth was still thinking about getting Victor to attack the Filthy Marsh Beast to attract its attention, but Victor did not move at all.
Seeing that Victor turned a deaf ear to his words and did not attack for a long time, the blue-haired youth was extremely furious.
He wanted to rush towards Victor and drag him into the situation, but Victor’s speed and agility made it impossible for him to succeed.
“Ah!”
The blue-haired youth suddenly screamed. One of his legs was rubbed against the corrosive mucus and instantly became a bloody mess.
Such a degree of injury. It was not enough to leave him crippled, but at this moment, it made it even harder for him to dodge.
The blue-haired youth gritted his teeth. He was holding on with a will to survive, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to hold on for long.
At this moment, Victor had poured most of the spiritual power in his body into the Wood Spirit Embryo, constantly compressing it. The power of nature had already recovered to 95%!
“Hold on for a little longer.”
Victor looked at the fiercely shaking spell formation of the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation and focused his mind.
Although the Filthy Marsh Beast was attacking the blue-haired youth, every attack would still affect the spell formation of the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation. It caused a huge impact on the spell formation.
The power of the Filthy Marsh Beast was definitely above the foundation establishment realm. The Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation wouldn’t be able to withstand such an impact for long.
“I’m almost done.”
Victor felt the power of the Wood Spirit Embryo in his body. The compression of his spiritual power was about to be completed.
At this time, the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation couldn’t hold on much longer.
This Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation was of great practical value to Victor. He didn’t want to lose it just like that.
The moment the Nine Palace Heavenly Sky Formation reached its limit, Victor waved his hand. Nine talismans flew back to Victor’s storage ring from nine different directions like nine streaks of light.
At the same time, the power of nature was fully charged!
Bang!
The blue-haired youth suffered a heavy blow on his back by the tentacles of the Filthy Marsh Beast. He spat out blood and flew away, falling to the ground like a sack.
He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. The wind whistled by his ears. The blue-haired youth did not even need to look to know that the tentacles were coming at him again.
At the critical moment, the blue-haired youth, supported by his strong survival instinct, endured the intense pain in his internal organs and rushed forward, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow.
He shouted at Victor desperately, “I… If I die, don’t you dare think about living. Quickly attack! Its eyes… are its weakness! Otherwise… we will all die.”
In the violent airflow, the blue-haired youth’s voice seemed to be torn apart. In fact, he did not know the weakness of the Filthy Marsh Beast at all.
Perhaps, the Filthy Marsh Beast did not have a weakness to begin with. The blue-haired youth simply said one to lure Victor to attack. Attacking the Filthy Marsh Beast’s eyes would definitely arouse its anger.
But the blue-haired youth also knew that a coward like Victor would not attack.
However, he did not expect Victor to really attack. His entire body flickered with lightning and flames, dazzling.
Seeing this scene, the blue-haired youth was somewhat stunned, and then he was secretly delighted.
This kid had finally fallen for it!
Moreover, it seemed to be his ultimate move. With Victor’s interference, he might be able to survive.
In addition to that, when he fell just now, he realized that the barrier had disappeared. Otherwise, he should have crashed into the barrier.
When the barrier disappeared, Victor rushed to the Filthy Marsh Beast and launched an attack. This attack would definitely attract the Filthy Marsh Beast to Victor.
This was simply the best opportunity to escape.
He only hoped that Victor’s attack would be powerful enough to anger the Filthy Marsh Beast.
The blue-haired youth endured the pain and used his movement technique to escape. At this time, escaping was the most important thing. Qingshan Town and the lives of the civilians were none of his business. Even Bai Bing’s life was nothing compared to his.
