Chapter 461 Attack - Black-Eyed Demon Lizard
Chapter 461 Attack - Black-Eyed Demon Lizard
Through Hua Lanzheng's body, Jiang He seemed to see the female cultivator from that day.
She lowered her head and avoided eye contact with him.
Of all the opportunities to possess another body, Ying Fengyi chose Hua Lanzheng's body, or perhaps Ying Fengyi had her eye on this body from the very beginning.
Jiang He was certain of one thing: Ying Fengyi was not dead, and had successfully possessed his body.
She thought of Bai Zhizhou and Kongji, who had been dragged into the space just like her.
Jiang He could roughly deduce what was happening in the illusion.
Jiang He is more inclined to believe that Ying Fengyi's attempt to possess Hua Lanzheng is a last resort.
Perhaps from the beginning, Ying Fengyi's choices were these three people, and after failing to possess someone, he set his sights on Hua Lanzheng.
Jiang He didn't know Hua Lanzheng's character, but as a Nascent Soul cultivator with a Light Spirit Root, she shouldn't have been so easily possessed by someone else.
This is one of the self-contradictory aspects of the calculation.
Regardless of the process, it is a fact that Ying Fengyi possessed Hua Lanzheng. As someone who had killed Hua Lanzheng twice, Jiang He knew that she would definitely be targeted by him. However, Jiang He did not expect to meet Ying Fengyi so soon, and that Ying Fengyi had already recognized her as the person in the secret realm.
Jiang He wasn't panicked when her disguise was exposed. The key was that Ying Fengyi would definitely kill her, either secretly or by using someone else to do it.
Jiang He stepped inside the starship.
Four days later, the starship arrived at the Fifth Army.
Compared to the Third Army, the cultivators of the Fifth Army were extremely enthusiastic. Before Jiang He and the others even disembarked from the starship, a large force came out to greet them.
This trip to Black Nest will likely last until June, around the time when Shangguan Linghu and other cultivators graduate.
The monks from the academy were assigned to the logistics unit.
The logistics troops do a variety of jobs. Sword cultivators and other attack-type cultivators can drive machines to transport spirit stones and weapon resources, while alchemists usually refine pills together with the alchemists stationed on the planet when they arrive at Black Nest.
Each cultivator was assigned a different task; Jiang He, Bai Zhizhou, and others were tasked with controlling artificial intelligence.
The highest level of monsters in the Black Nest is S-rank. Whether transporting weapons or refining pills in the alchemy room, it is possible to encounter monsters that have been missed or teleported over. This is commonplace for military cultivators.
In recent years, the number of caves on Black Nest Planet has been increasing year by year, leading many experts to speculate that a great catastrophe may occur again in a thousand years.
After years of planning, Wanqi Jingyan has been bringing increasingly older cultivators to Black Nest.
Jiang He and other undergraduate students below the senior level are the key students that Wan Qijingyan is training.
Adapting to the Black Nest early on will prevent being caught unprepared when unexpected events occur.
In Wanqi Jingyan's view, if another great calamity were to strike, even more cultivators would die.
Although we cannot stop the tide, we must at least preserve the empire's vital forces.
In recent years, apart from demons, other empires have also been eyeing the Wanling Empire covetously, waiting to take a bite out of it when it is weak.
Within the system, the monopoly of resources among large families has long been deeply entrenched and pervasive, whether in officialdom, education, or the military.
With powerful families to be suppressed, demons to be eliminated, and other empires to be guarded against, Wanqi Jingyan was so busy that he was rarely seen.
With the implementation of various monster eradication plans, the monsters on Black Nest are kept within a certain area of the cave, and outside of that area, very few monsters appear.
There are many demons and few cultivators on the front line. Most of the cultivators with high cultivation levels are taking turns guarding the caves.
As a team was maneuvering flying vehicles to transport weapons, the air was suddenly torn apart, and a giant lizard burst through the air, followed by four other lizards.
"S-rank monsters! Four of them!"
Zhong Liyu shouted a warning at the top of her lungs.
"Oh my god, so many S-rank monsters, how long will it take to fight them?"
Zhong Liyu ran to Bai Zhizhou's side while shouting.
The leader of this group was Jiang He, and in addition to the five of them, there were also cultivators from other academies among them.
There were no Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the group; they were all in the Enlightenment stage.
Faced with five S-class monsters, and in Black Nest no less, Cheng Yu was so scared he wet himself on the spot.
This isn't a university competition, nor is it in the Trial Tower, and it's certainly not some holographic simulation game.
The monsters they were in, the Black Nest, had escaped from the cave.
Cheng Yu knew this was reality, and people could die from it!
A wave of fear nearly engulfed Cheng Yu. He stared at the demon, secretly terrified, as if some unknown magical power had frozen him in place.
Zhong Liyu tackled Cheng Yu to the ground.
"Are you tired of living? That black-eyed demon lizard is spitting its tongue at you, aren't you going to dodge?"
Zhong Liyu touched her scraped arm. Sometimes she really didn't want to save these two arms, as if she had gone mad.
Cheng Yu lowered his head and only then realized that he had been too scared and frightened.
He drew his sword and whispered his thanks to Zhong Liyu.
Zhong Liyu waved his hand and immediately took out his erhu:
"Everyone, please be mentally prepared."
A piercing sound tore through the air, a dry, cracked tone that seemed to be a strained voice struggling to produce a harsh melody.
When Cheng Yu realized he needed to fight the demon, he had already found his position. As a sword cultivator with an earth elemental root, he was perfectly suited to charge forward. However, upon hearing the tune played on Zhong Liyu's erhu, he was not controlled by the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard this time, but was instead forcibly controlled by the sound for two seconds.
Two seconds is enough time for them to do a lot of things, such as dividing into teams and determining how to attack.
There are five Black-Eyed Demon Lizards in total. Each of these demonic lizards is thirty to forty meters long. Their strong limbs and tails support their bodies as they move forward. Their completely black eyes are an important characteristic for identifying Black-Eyed Demon Lizards.
There were five black-eyed demon lizards, but only 20 people. Due to the small number of people and the varying levels of cultivation among the cultivators, dividing them into five teams would obviously not be effective in controlling them.
Jiang He decisively split the team into three groups.
Bai Zhizhou, Long Aotian, and she each lead a team.
Jiang He and Bai Zhizhou each pulled two Black-Eyed Demon Lizards, while Long Aotian's team had fewer members and pulled only one demon.
After Jiang He assigned the teams, most of the cultivators obediently followed Jiang He's instructions and stood in line, perhaps because of the sudden appearance of the demons and the lack of anyone stepping forward. Even Cheng Yu, who was usually a traitor, stood in Long Aotian's team.
Adult Black-Eyed Demon Lizards are enormous, and it's difficult to kill them directly with your current cultivation level; you have to find their weaknesses and slowly wear them down.
Furthermore, the Black-eyed Demon Lizard is adept at concealment, using its environment to camouflage itself while waiting for prey.
From Jiang He's perspective, the two black-eyed demon lizards that were just on the left have vanished into thin air and blended into the environment.
Compared to the previous Invisibility Phenomenon, the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard's ability is actually less advanced. The Invisibility Phenomenon's invisibility is true invisibility, while the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard merely blends into its environment.
However, monsters with the ability to become invisible are very troublesome.
After the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard disappeared, most of the cultivators were somewhat panicked.
Then a black-eyed demon lizard appeared, its speed making it particularly difficult to defend against.
A stream of saliva shot from its mouth had only been in contact with a cultivator for three seconds when the cultivator began to have difficulty breathing.
Seeing this, Long Aotian, just like Jiang He had done before, quickly ripped off the cultivator's rotting flesh.
Bai Zhizhou:
"The saliva of the Black-eyed Demon Lizard contains thousands of bacteria. Covering all wounds on its body with these bacteria will worsen the infection!"
After saying this, Bai Zhizhou hurriedly looked at the cultivator. In addition to bacteria, the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard's salivary glands under its jaws also secrete venom.
The lizard delivers venom into the human bloodstream through its sharp teeth.
Often, venom is the primary cause of death.
Bai Zhizhou quickly explained the attack methods of the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard.
The venom can suppress a cultivator's cultivation level, and the special proteins in the venom can cause vasodilation, blood clotting disorders, and a drop in blood pressure.
Normally, once the venom enters a cultivator's body, without medical treatment, the cultivator will become sluggish and die within half an hour.
After Bai Zhizhou finished speaking, everyone realized the terrifying nature of the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard in front of them.
Long Aotian finished slicing the meat.
Before they could catch their breath, another black-eyed demon lizard suddenly appeared.
Behind the group, a black-eyed demonic lizard lunged straight at the two cultivators.
The demonic lizard launched a swift attack, followed by countless streams of saliva and sharp teeth stained with brown grime!
