You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."

The three giant Gale Wolves howled to the sky, and then countless wind blades shot towards Chen Huai'an and Qin Muyao.

There were quite a few wind blades this time, and they were also quite dense.

The attacks came wave after wave. His bone shield was hit by the wind blades, and the color of the shield dimmed instantly. Chen Huai'an kept pouring mana into the bone shield to barely withstand the wind blade attacks.

The situation was not optimistic. He had blocked the Gale Wolves' wind blade attack, but the Gale Wolves had already broken through his sand trap defense, and two Gale Wolves had already rushed in front of him.

With the Earth Spikes technique, Chen Huai'an killed two ordinary Gale Wolves.

The Gale Wolves unleashed another wind blade attack, followed by three massive second-tier Gale Wolves joining the fray. In just a few breaths, they broke through Chen Huai'an's sand trap defense.

Chen Huai'an unleashed his earth spike technique, which he then used to attack the Gale Wolf in a fit of rage.

Not only that, Chen Huai'an also kept unleashing his fireballs at his opponent.

In just one attack, the three second-tier Gale Wolves were wounded, but they were not killed.

The other ordinary Gale Wolves that accompanied him fell to Chen Huai'an's blade.

Now, Chen Huai'an has to deal with the three second-tier Gale Wolves.

The Sand Trap attack is effective against the Gale Wolf, but its effect is limited. The Earth Spikes attack only barely tears through the opponent's defenses and cannot cause fatal damage. Instead, it completely enrages the wolf, driving it into a frenzy.

Ordinary spells are unlikely to kill it instantly, but Chen Huai'an was facing three second-tier Gale Wolves, which significantly increased the difficulty.

The bone shield defense consumed too much mana, and the light barrier quickly dimmed. If he couldn't think of a way to break the deadlock, he and Qin Muyao would both perish here today.

Chen Huai'an realized that Qin Muyao had used sword control techniques; several flashes of sword light instantly killed several powerful men in black. If he also knew sword control, could he also take down these second-tier Gale Wolves? The attacks of sword light were extremely sharp.

Next, Chen Huai'an's only way to break the deadlock is through close combat, so he will have to rely on the Flaming Blade Technique.

He had several spiritual weapons and a flying sword artifact.

He found the flying sword magic weapon in that cultivator's cave. He only did a simple refinement of it and did not use it.

No, it's not that he was only at the Body Refinement stage back then, and he wasn't qualified to use it. But now, he has broken through to the Qi Refining stage, and he has magical power within his body, so he can activate that flying sword.

The three-headed, second-tier Gale Wolf put a lot of pressure on Chen Huai'an. Since he was going to make a move, he had to go all out and use the sharpest magic weapon to break through the opponent's defense.

With a thought, Chen Huai'an summoned the flying sword artifact.

"This is actually a metal-type flying sword magic weapon. Could it be that the senior possessed a metal spiritual root?" As soon as Chen Huai'an activated the golden flying sword magic weapon, a look of joy appeared on his face.

The flying sword is a metal-type magical artifact, and his metal spiritual root is a perfect match, allowing him to unleash its full power.

In his dantian, the magical power within the golden vortex flowed into the flying sword. The flying sword in his hand emitted a buzzing sound and, under his divine control, spun rapidly, stabbing towards a swift wind wolf.

His spell attack just now was like tickling the opponent, easily breaking through the opponent's defense. But now, with one strike, he directly tore through the opponent's defense, leaving a hideous and huge wound on the opponent's back.

Chen Huai'an's divine sense was being rapidly depleted, leaving the three second-tier Gale Wolves covered in wounds.

Chen Huai'an also discovered a drawback: there is still a slight difference between magical attacks and close combat.

Moreover, his sword control technique was only half-baked. He hadn't practiced it properly; he just used his divine sense to control the flying sword and slashed randomly. When faced with the attack of the three-headed Gale Wolf, he would only remedy the situation wherever there was danger, without any method or strategy.

It's like a child holding a divine weapon that can melt iron like mud, but he just can't hit the enemy. What can he do?

These three Tier 2 Gale Wolves, enraged by Chen Huai'an's attack, began summoning nearby Gale Wolves again.

If things continue at this pace and a quick victory cannot be achieved, Chen Huai'an will also be worn down by these beasts.

Whether casting spells or activating bone shields, using flying swords and magical artifacts to fight enemies consumes a great deal of mana and mental energy.

If Chen Huai'an didn't have the Five Elements Spiritual Root, his internal magical power would be abundant, and his spiritual power would be quite good. He would have run out of magical power long ago, so what's the point of fighting?

"No, we need to change our tactics. Otherwise, if we run out of mana and another group comes, what's the point of fighting? We might as well just die." Chen Huai'an's idea was to change tactics and stop using ranged attacks, opting instead for close-quarters combat.

He had to buy time quickly.

Chen Huai'an was most familiar with the Flame Blade Technique, and although it was dangerous, he had no choice but to do it.

Most importantly, there's Chen Huai'an; he has a lot of room for improvement. He definitely needs to practice his sword control technique properly once this crisis is over.

The flying sword magic weapon can easily tear through the defenses of second-tier demonic beasts. Its only drawback is that it cannot inflict fatal wounds. Otherwise, these Gale Wolves would be no match for him.

"You beasts, let me show you my Flaming Blade Technique!" Chen Huai'an roared, leaving behind the rattan armor to protect Qin Muyao, while he withdrew all his defenses and engaged in battle with the three second-tier Gale Wolves.

After a round of fighting, Chen Huai'an killed three second-tier Gale Wolves and several first-tier Gale Wolves. He was covered in blood, and a murderous aura emanated from his body.

He held out, slaying all the Gale Wolves. But the blood on his body wasn't entirely his; only a small portion belonged to the wolves.

As soon as the battle ended, Chen Huai'an put the corpses of the Gale Wolf demon beasts into his storage bag. Those that couldn't fit were sent directly into his gourd space. He couldn't let these spoils of war go to waste.

Seeing that Qin Muyao showed no signs of waking up, Chen Huai'an was also a bit troubled. Should he continue to wait for her to escape?

Zhang Huai'an shook his head, abandoning the idea. Taking Qin Muyao with him to escape was the optimal solution, but not the best one; it was inconvenient, so he gave up. If he really carried her to safety, he wouldn't have enough time to recover his depleted mana or get enough rest. If the Gale Wolves caught up with him, he would only die from exhaustion.

Suddenly, Chen Huai'an thought of the restrictions placed in front of the cultivator's cave, and he couldn't help but sigh, "If only I knew how to set up formations around here, I could recover in peace."

Chen Huai'an only thought about it for a moment before giving up on these unrealistic ideas. What he needed to do now was to quickly restore his depleted mana.

Chen Huai'an took out a top-grade healing pill and swallowed it. He then drank some spiritual spring water and held a high-grade wood spirit stone in his hand to begin restoring his depleted mana.

Chen Huai'an could sense that several Gale Wolves were rushing towards this place.

Not far from Chen Huai'an, several men in black appeared. If Chen Huai'an were there, he would recognize them at a glance as members of the Yin Sha Sect.

One of the men in black looked in the direction of Chen Huai'an and his group and muttered to himself, "Interesting. An ant at the Qi Refining Realm can actually withstand the attacks of so many Gale Wolves. This guy must have something special."

"Senior brother, should we kill this guy?" one of the black-clad men at the Qi Refining Realm asked respectfully.

"Kill him? Idiot, why should we kill him? There's a pack of Gale Wolves nearby. Let them deal with that brat. We still have missions to handle. If we don't find that bitch Qin Muyao soon, the higher-ups of the Qingyun Sect will find out about this, and we'll be hunted down by all the Qingyun Sect disciples." The leader of the black-clad men glared fiercely at the other man and said.
