Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 152 Jackals
The monk surnamed Jing did not die for a while. He still stood on the ground stubbornly, trying in vain to cover the huge flesh hole on his neck with his hands. The wound was in great pain, but he could not cry out.

The leader of the Purple Fire Jackals was not afraid of the cold gaze of Master Kang. He swallowed the throat of the monk named Jing in just three or two bites and swam to the next battlefield.

With the previous experience of the cultivator named Jing as a lesson, the remaining cultivators all became more vigilant.

With his not-so-outstanding personal strength, the Purple Fire Jackal leader could hardly defeat these prepared monks with one strike, so he had no choice but to hide in the dark, like an assassin, waiting for the opportunity to strike.

To be fair, if the cultivators were to set up their formations and engage in a head-on battle with the Purple Fire Jackals, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.

But now they were in a narrow and dark mine tunnel, and the Purple Fire Jackal had the upper hand here due to its agility and tacit cooperation, making the situation for the cultivators dangerous from the very beginning of the fight.

After struggling in vain for a while, the monk named Jing finally died.

No one would have time to care about him at this time.

Master Kang swung his short blade continuously, and with a few black rays, he had already cut off the heads of two purple fire jackals, which was considered to have slightly reversed the situation for the cultivators.

After the initial panic, the monks gradually gained their footing.

After all, the combat power of the Purple Fire Jackal is not outstanding, and the cultivation level of the cultivators recruited by Tanggu County this time is not low either. There are two or three cultivators in the late stage of Qi training in this team alone, and their strength is actually not much weaker than that of the jackals.

As long as they keep calm, it will be impossible for this group of jackals, whose number is only slightly larger than that of the monks, to easily hunt them all down.

Kang Dabao was not in a hurry to find the leader of the Purple Fire Jackals. The beast was obviously very alert, and it would be difficult to find it without some effort. So he simply helped the monks deal with the Purple Fire Jackals in front of them.

Just wait until the killing is almost complete, then whether the Purple Fire Jackal leader shows up or not will not affect the battle situation.

The White Bear Fang Flag was sacrificed by Sect Leader Kang. This first-class magic weapon, which he obtained from Nan Ying at his own expense, was used by him for the first time against the enemy.

Normally this was a magical weapon suitable for use in array battles, but the two restrictions of "cast courage" and "strengthen heart" on it were not out of place when used in the melee at this time.

A dazzling white light was reflected on the tooth flag, and the cultivators pointed at by the white light felt that their fatigue had receded a lot, and their spiritual power was also restored a lot. The purple fire jackal in front of them was not as scary as Kaixian.

It looked like a wolf just now, but now it looks like a dog!

The morale of the cultivators was greatly boosted. After half an incense stick of time, Master Kang stopped the white light of the white bear fang flag, and after using his golden eyes to kill another purple fire jackal, he glanced at the battlefield and realized something was wrong.

This group of purple fire jackals were obviously driven by humans. Otherwise, they would have escaped long ago after losing one third of their members.

Monsters will only fight with humans regardless of casualties unless they are guarding their nests or protecting their cubs, but the current situation clearly does not fall into that category.

Sure enough, seeing that the Purple Fire Jackals had begun to become frightened because of the many casualties, the low roar from the darkness of the Purple Fire Jackal leader could no longer drive them forward.

Kang Dabao swung a short blade towards the place where the growl came from. After a few breaths, the short blade returned to his hand with blood.

The Purple Fire Jackal leader didn't dodge fast enough this time and failed to escape unscathed, but fortunately he wasn't hurt in any vital parts. He just needed to move further away to lick his wounds.

As soon as the leader retreated, the morale of the purple fire jackals in the field became even lower.

Just as Master Kang was about to raise the White Bear Fang Flag and lead the monks to turn defense into offense, a sharp and piercing bone whistle suddenly sounded in the mine, causing all the monks present to pause.

After the trance, everyone felt that the purple fire jackals in front of them seemed to be going crazy again, and then a colorless fragrance filled the air, stimulating these ugly creatures with sharp mouths to become even more fearless of death.

One purple fire jackal even tried to bite the thigh of the monk next to it by tilting its head when only half of its body was left.

"Sanxiang Sect!" Kang Dabao remembered what Tie Liuyun said to him in Chongming Market. No wonder this pack of jackals was so crazy, it turned out to be the evil spirits of Sanxiang Sect!
There was a rustling sound of footsteps as fast as raindrops coming from the mine tunnel again. Kang Dabao hurriedly shouted a warning and asked the monks to gather around and be on guard.

At this time, apart from Master Kang, the most eye-catching performance among the cultivators was from a formation master in the late stage of Qi training.

He also realized that something was wrong at this time, and he was no longer stingy with his money. He took out three formation flags and shouted for a while, and three monks who knew a little about formations surrounded him. The four of them formed a Four-Elephant Guarding Formation. Although this was one of the most basic defensive formations and had no special features, it was much safer than fighting alone.

What surprised Kang Dabao was that one of the three was Kuai En. But he had no time to think about it, as small groups of purple fire jackals were rushing out of the mines in all directions.

They did not look in good condition, many of them were missing ears or had blind eyes, and it was obvious that they had just been through a fierce battle.

But it is worth noting that as the jackals gathered in larger and larger numbers, the morale of the monks that had been gathered by the white fang flags began to dissipate.

"Don't even think about running away! You can't escape! These beasts are much faster than you in the mine!" Kang Dabao ignored the fact that several purple fire jackals were surrounding him. He first gave a warning and then cast a thunder talisman.

The power of the first-grade top-grade thunder talismans is indeed extraordinary. Gun Shide did not use shoddy stuff to show off. These thunder talismans are all fine products made by genuine talisman masters.

The talisman paper ignited in the wind and turned into a golden lightning bolt at an incredibly fast speed.

The purple fire jackals that were surrounding Kang Dabao were unable to dodge and were blasted into charcoal as soon as they raised their four claws.

After the thunder, smoke rose in the mine tunnel. Kang Dabao became alert and put his index finger to his mouth. Before he could blow hard, the smoke had not yet dissipated. With his good eyesight, he saw a purple shadow rushing towards him.

The two front paws drew out ten crisscrossing wind blades. Kang Dabao changed his hand gestures and uttered the word "Chi". The Shutu Qingyuan Shield in front of his body swelled in the wind and turned into the size of a millstone, easily intercepting the wind blades.

The leader of the Purple Fire Jackals was still unwilling to give up, and he fired another breath of purple flame, but still could not break through the mysterious light on the outer layer of the Shutu Qingyuan Shield. Instead, Kang Dabao's short blade took advantage of the gap and almost left another mark on his body.

But one Purple Fire Jackal Chieftain could not do anything to Master Kang, and now there is more than one Purple Fire Jackal Chieftain in the mine.

At this time, the other monks in the mine were also in danger.

With his barely entry-level knowledge of formation theory, Kuai En was able to work together with the formation master who was in the late stage of Qi training.

Their small group of four was in the best situation among all the cultivators at this time. Relying on the Four Symbols Guarding Formation, the four of them were able to firmly restrain eleven or twelve purple fire jackals.

This formation master in the late stage of Qi training was a man with a broad vision. When he saw that the Purple Fire Jackal had lost its patience and was about to turn around to surround other cultivators, he did not let it go. Instead, he took measures to lure it back.

This way, the balance of victory did not completely tilt towards the jackals.

He had just cooperated with his companion to use the Xuanhua axe to cut open the belly of a purple fire jackal. The sharp spike on the axe then pierced into the purple fire jackal's head, leaving a yellow and white mark on the ground.

He was panting heavily while leaning on his axe. As soon as he raised his head, a look of panic appeared on his face: "Uncle, be careful!"

Two purple fire jackals with red hair growing on the back of their necks were crouching behind Kang Dabao at the same time. Kuai En's shout seemed to have startled them and they jumped up in unison.

Two sharp mouths covered with fine teeth, wrapped in purple flames and emitting gray smoke, fell from the sky, ready to bite into the vital points of Master Kang.

Kang Dabao's eyes fixed. At this moment, he was still using the Shutu Qingyuan Shield to deal with the current Purple Fire Jackal leader, and it was difficult for him to turn around.

Even so, he was not in a panic. Master Kang pointed at the small gray bag next to the storage bag, and a figure full of death appeared in front of the two purple fire jackal leaders.
