Chapter 59: Defeating Them One by One
After hearing what Senior Brother Zhao said, Yun Xi understood what he meant. This was a method of defeating them one by one. First, put this group of sand rats into the formation and eliminate the surrounding noise to avoid attracting more powerful monsters.

Then they will eliminate the sand rats in different areas. The four of them should be able to deal with a first-level sand rat, but it will consume a lot of energy, so they must cooperate with each other, otherwise it will be easy to exhaust their spiritual energy and be swallowed.

Finally, they would deal with the second-level one. Then it would be four against one. Although there was a difference in cultivation, they had formations and talismans, so they could wear the opponent down.

Yun Xi made a prompt decision and said:
"I understand what Senior Brother Zhao means, but to trap a second-level sand rat, I must use a mid-grade spirit stone. Otherwise, after putting it into the formation, it will charge forward and my formation plate will be unable to withstand it. By then, there will be no room for respite, and we will be in a difficult battle."

When they heard that mid-grade spirit stones were needed, the remaining three people took a breath of cold air. One thousand low-grade spirit stones could only be exchanged for one mid-grade spirit stone. Even if there was a disciple, he would hide it.

Yun Xi spread his hands. This was the shortcoming of the formation plate. It needed energy support, otherwise it would not work. Or maybe they themselves were not strong enough. Otherwise, they could just pick up the sword and do it. There would be no need for so much trouble.

Senior Brother Zhao took a deep breath and looked at Hua Xuanzi. They both knew that if they couldn't get over this hurdle, their path of cultivation would end here, so they wiped their storage bags, and each of them had three more medium-grade spirit stones in their hands.

Hua Xuanzi said with a painful look on his face:

"This is the spirit stone I saved to buy the foundation-building pill."

The same goes for Senior Brother Zhao.

Yun Xi took it with a smile and said:
"Don't worry, if you can't use up all the spirit stones, we will return them to you."

Zong Hao scratched his head and said:
"Yun Xi, we're still three pieces short!"

"Look through the storage bags of those people just now and try to collect some. If you really can't find enough, use low-grade spirit stones instead. I just need to assign one person to watch the formation plate."

Yun Xi was the first to take out the storage bag she had harvested and began to search through it. Her spiritual sense was the strongest among the four, so she would allocate a strand of her spiritual sense to focus on the array disk. Of course, it would be even better if she could find a mid-grade spirit stone.

As a result, they were lucky and found a medium-grade spirit stone in the storage bag of Qian, Li and Zhang. This must be what they had accumulated with great difficulty. This was probably the reason why they set their sights on Hua and Zhao.

"Alright, now we have enough. I'll activate the formation and let the sand rats in. You all quickly meditate to recover. Don't be stingy with the pills and spirit stones, we have a tough battle to fight!"

While Yun Xi was speaking, his hands kept moving, replacing the low-grade spirit stones on the array plate that were about to turn into powder with medium-grade spirit stones.

The moment the spirit stones were replaced, the entire formation became ethereal for a moment, letting in all the sand rats that were at the front, including the second-level sand rat boss.

Yun Xi quickly tapped on the word "separate", and the entire formation was divided into nine spaces. The four of them were at the center, and the space around them was divided into eight pieces. The sand rats were also trapped in eight spaces respectively.

Yun Xi swept his spiritual sense across the formation, seeing the situation clearly, and then he grasped a low-grade spirit stone and began to recover.

In less than half an hour, the four of them woke up from their meditation one after another, then checked their storage bags and made final preparations.

Yun Xi exhaled a breath of foul air and said:
"Is everyone ready?"

"All right!"

"We'll form groups of two, then support each other and work together to kill the sand rats."

"understand!"

"Follow me into the battle."

Yun Xi chose a space with the most sand rats. In the early stage of the battle, they had to kill the largest number of them. Otherwise, when they were short of physical strength and attention at the end of the battle and faced a large number of sand rats, it would be very disadvantageous for them.

The moment we entered this space, sand rats surrounded us because they smelled the meat.

Senior Brother Zhao, still leading the charge, slashed with his sword. The golden spiritual energy of the sword instantly cleared a gap. The four quickly took their positions and each unleashed their own methods to kill the sand rat. Yun Xi didn't miss this opportunity to practice. As Zong Hao swung his sword, imbued with fire spiritual energy, she instantly unleashed various attack spells: fireball, golden arrow, ice spike, lightning strike, and entanglement, all in a rotation, ensuring that they were both instantaneous and perfectly accurate.

Later, she even learned how to stack spells. First, a water ball spell would explode in the air to give the sand rat a bath, and then a lightning strike spell would follow to maximize the attack effect.

The sand rats that were affected by the lightning technique were shaking on the ground with their stomachs turned upside down. Whenever this happened, Zong Hao would quickly finish them off, and Senior Brother Zhao on the side would also be responsible for harvesting some of the spoils. In short, everyone cooperated well.

After more than half an hour, the sand rats in this space were cleared out, and the four people collapsed on the ground exhausted. The sand rats really won by numbers, and they would be entangled by the little creatures if they were not careful. The corners of the four people's robes were gnawed to tatters.

After being paralyzed for a while, the four of them got up and meditated to recover their spiritual strength.

Yun Xi took this opportunity to adjust his cultivation to the sixth level of Qi Refining, disguising it as a breakthrough in combat limits, which made the other three very pleased.

After the four of them recovered their spiritual power and ate something to restore their physical strength, Yun Xi opened the next space.

The four of them fought from morning to afternoon, and then to midnight, and finally killed most of the first-level sand rats trapped in the formation. The next step was to kill the second-level sand rat leader.

"How about we take a rest for the night and deal with that second-level one tomorrow?"

Zong Hao suggested when he saw that everyone looked tired.

The three of them shook their heads and said:

"no!"

"why?"

Yun Xi took out the formation plate and said:
"Look at the spirit stones on the array plate."

Zong Hao remained silent after reading it, because the nine medium-grade spirit stones on it had become dim, and at least half of the spiritual power inside had been consumed.

If that second-level sand rat realized something was wrong and launched an attack at night to destroy the formation, it would probably not last until dawn the next day.

Senior Brother Zhao said:

"This time we'll rest for an hour and make full preparations before we start."

In fact, he was not sure in his heart, but everyone had persisted until now and consumed so many resources, even the mid-grade spirit stones. He was unwilling to fail to capture this second-level sand rat, so he had to bite the bullet and give it a try.

"After we go in, Xuanzi and I will be responsible for holding back the second-level sand rats. You two should deal with the first-level sand rats first, and then we will focus on dealing with this second-level one to prevent us from being attacked from both sides."

"it is good!"

Yun Xi and Zong Hao immediately nodded in agreement. This was not the time for them to show off their abilities.

However, Yun Xi pointed out:
"The sand rat's weaknesses are its belly and eyes. You can pretend to attack its belly, causing it to ignore the protection of its eyes, and then attack its eyes unexpectedly."

Senior Brother Zhao and Hua Xuanzi immediately nodded in agreement. One still needs some strategy when fighting.

"Now that everyone is ready, I will open the formation!"

The moment the isolation array was opened, the four of them rushed forward without giving the sand rat a chance to react.
