The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun.

This situation caught all the masters off guard, but they were all top-notch experts with extraordinary reaction speeds. After Linghu Chong reminded them, they immediately drew their weapons and assumed defensive stances before the arrows even came.

when!when!when!

Countless arrows came flying, and the masters from all sides exerted their strength to knock the arrows off the ground.

Despite the dense rain of arrows, one person was still wounded.

"what!!"

A Kunlun Sect master screamed in agony as an arrow struck his arm, the wound rotting and stinking at a visible speed.

"Oh no! These arrows are poisoned!"

The other experts cried out in alarm. Seeing the expert who had been shot by an arrow screaming in agony, Linghu Chong reacted quickly, grabbing the arrow with one hand and pulling it out with a hiss. He then immediately slashed diagonally with his sword, cutting a large chunk of flesh from the wound where the Kunlun Sect expert had been shot.

The expert's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his lips were pale.

"Go back!"

Linghu Chong grabbed him and shouted at the others.

The group immediately retreated, and after they withdrew from the range of the arrow rain, the members of the demonic sect also stopped shooting arrows.

"Let's go! Let's go back!"

Linghu Chong's face turned grim.

The group dared not delay and retreated immediately.

The martial arts practitioners who had been waiting for a long time at Gorilla Beach finally saw Linghu Chong and his companions return.

"Master Jiang, Young Master Linghu and the others have returned."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning stepped forward and indeed saw Linghu Chong and the others, but then his gaze sharpened.

"Senior brothers, have you been ambushed?"

Jiang Ning frowned and asked.

"good."

Linghu Chong's face turned grim.

"Those demonic cultists were lying in ambush on the stone walls on both sides. We were attacked before we even stepped onto the stone walls, and this senior was even hit by a poisoned arrow."

Upon hearing Linghu Chong's words, everyone couldn't help but look at the injured man. They saw that a large chunk of flesh was missing from his arm, and his entire arm was stained red with blood, which looked quite horrifying.

When Zhenshanzi saw that the person was injured, his expression also became serious.

Jiang Ning frowned and remained silent. He quickly stepped forward to the injured person, grasped the injured arm with one hand, and began to channel his true energy to heal the person.

The expert's complexion gradually regained some color, and the excruciating pain in his arm seemed to lessen.

"Thank you, Master Jiang."

"This expert said weakly."

Jiang Ning shook his head to indicate that he was alright. At this moment, Abbess Dingyi stepped forward and handed him a small bottle.

"These are the White Cloud Bear Bile Pill and Heavenly Fragrance Broken Joint Glue, sacred healing medicines of my Hengshan Sect, which can treat injuries."

"Thank you, Master."

The Kunlun Sect expert thanked him in a low voice, and Zhenshanzi also expressed his gratitude from the side.

The Hengshan Sect's two healing artifacts are renowned throughout the martial arts world, and Dingyi should indeed be grateful for their availability.

Master Dingyi waved her hand.

"We are all righteous people, and now we are working together to eradicate the evil cult. How can my Hengshan Sect be so stingy with our meager healing items? They are nothing to us."

After taking the White Cloud Bear Bile Pill and applying the Heavenly Fragrance Rejuvenating Glue to the wound, the Kunlun Sect master's condition indeed stabilized quickly. However, he had lost his ability to fight, so Jiang Ning immediately had someone help him down to rest.

The expressions on everyone's faces didn't improve much either.

They also knew the news that Linghu Chong brought back. In that kind of terrain, the Demonic Sect ambushed on the stone wall with poisoned arrows, which was indeed very troublesome. Even top-level masters were hit by the poison. If they launched a direct attack, they would probably suffer heavy losses.

Everyone was waiting for Jiang Ning to give them a suggestion.

Jiang Ning pondered for a moment, then shouted loudly.

"Black Tortoise, Spirit Serpent!"

Hiss! Roar!

The two beasts in the distance responded immediately and soon arrived in front of Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning touched their heads and whispered.

"Now is the time when we need you."

Both the Xuan Turtle and the Spirit Snake possess extremely strong physical defenses, making them impenetrable to ordinary weapons. They are the best first attackers, leading the charge while a large number of martial artists follow behind in the fray.

The black tortoise gave a muffled groan, which was taken as an agreement, while the spirit snake hissed as if it were saying something.

Jiang Ning laughed.

"Okay, I'll let you eat your fill after this is over."

Chapter 786: The Two Beasts Display Their Power

While on Mount Hua, the disciples always provided livestock to feed the spirit snake, but after leaving the mountain, such conditions were no longer available, and the spirit snake was constantly hungry. Although it did not throw a tantrum in front of Jiang Ning, it still felt aggrieved.

Now that it had received Jiang Ning's promise, the serpent's eyes showed a joyful expression, almost like an anthropomorphic look, before it followed the black tortoise.

The snake originally wanted to climb onto the black tortoise's back because it was too lazy to crawl, but the black tortoise turned its head and warned it, so the snake turned its head and moved a little distance away from the black tortoise.

"They're becoming more and more human-like."

Yue Buqun, who was standing to the side, laughed.

When Jiang Ning first subdued them, they could only understand a little human speech. Now they can fully understand, and their intelligence is quite high. They are also very perceptive. Apart from not being able to speak, they have made great progress.

As for the Xuan Turtle, although it is quite intelligent, it seems to have an extremely dull personality. It is usually silent and doesn't like to talk to people. It only becomes docile when it is facing Jiang Ning, unlike the Spirit Snake, which occasionally plays with the disciples of Mount Hua.

After receiving Jiang Ning's orders, the Xuan Turtle and the Spirit Serpent led the way, followed by a large number of martial arts practitioners.

……

"Why have those righteous people been gone for so long without making a move? Are they afraid?"

"Of course. Blackwood Cliff is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We occupy a favorable position, and no matter how many righteous people there are, they won't be able to get through."

"Now they're probably wondering what to do."

On the stone wall, several members of the Demonic Cult were chatting idly.

They were very confident in the terrain of Blackwood Cliff.

"Speaking of which, the righteous sects have already come to our doorstep, so why hasn't the sect leader shown up yet?"

"A member of the demonic cult asked in confusion."

Since learning that the righteous path was going to attack Pingding Prefecture, Yang Lianting had sent many people to Pingding Prefecture. He even said that the sect leader would personally go to guard it. But for some reason, the sect leader did not appear, and neither did Yang Lianting. Yang Lianting had not been seen for several days. If Tong Baixiong had not returned to take charge, they would probably have been in chaos.

Fortunately, after Tong Baixiong returned, he went to see the sect leader and told them that the sect leader was in seclusion and that they should hold Blackwood Cliff and wait for the sect leader to come out of seclusion so that they could wipe out this group of righteous people.

Everyone was relieved.

The other members of the demonic cult laughed upon hearing this.

"There's no need for the leader to intervene; we can stop them here and prevent them from advancing an inch."

"That's right. These so-called righteous sects were no match for my divine sect before. Now they only dare to come knocking because they have produced a terrestrial immortal. But so what? The sect leader is already a terrestrial immortal. Jiang Ning is no match for the sect leader, so what is there to fear?"

"This time we must teach them a lesson, so they know that even the current cult is not an enemy they can oppose."

While these members of the demonic cult were talking, they suddenly heard others shout.

"Look, what's that!"

The people who were talking immediately fell silent, looked closely, and their expressions changed drastically.

They saw a black tortoise, as large as a small mountain, and a spirit snake whose body seemed to stretch endlessly, approaching them at an extremely fast speed.

"These are the tortoise and snake beasts under Jiang Ning's command!"

"Fire the arrows! Fire them now!"

Many people recognized him and immediately shouted.

All the members of the demonic cult drew their bows and nocked their arrows, and in an instant, a dense rain of arrows covered the Xuan Turtle and the Spirit Serpent.

Despite the rain of arrows falling from the sky, the Xuan Turtle and the Spirit Serpent did not slow down, completely ignoring the arrow rain.

The arrows struck the two beasts with a clanging sound, but couldn't even break their skin.

Seeing that their own arrow barrage was ineffective, the demonic cult members, who had just been so confident that the righteous path could not defeat them, were thrown into chaos and lost their previous confidence.

In just a moment, the serpent rushed over, its body crawling on the smooth stone wall. Then, the members of the demonic sect on the stone wall saw an enormous head appear before them.

Those vertical pupils radiated a cruel light, and the constantly flickering forked tongue seemed to emanate fear from them.

hiss!

The serpent launched the first attack, opening its blood-red maw to bite at the members of the demonic sect.

The black tortoise also arrived at the location, but the smooth stone wall prevented it from climbing up. The enraged black tortoise roared and stood upright, slamming its two huge front claws against the stone wall.

A crack suddenly appeared on the smooth stone wall, and the members of the Demonic Cult above were shaken and thrown into chaos.

Seeing that the spirit snake and the black tortoise had begun to fight, disrupting the demonic sect's ranks, the martial arts practitioners who had been waiting for a long time drew their weapons and rushed over.

"The guardian spirit beast under Master Jiang's command has opened a path for us, kill!"

"Eliminate the evil cult today!"

All the martial arts practitioners shouted, their battle cries shaking the heavens.

In no time, a martial arts master rushed to the stone wall, then used his lightness skill to leap onto it, and witnessed the scene of the spirit snake slaughtering wildly.

Screams echoed as the serpent tore and bit through the demonic cult members, its tail whipping relentlessly, breaking bones and tendons in the serpents it struck. The serpent's body coiled around and ravaged the demonic cult members it had encircled, leaving behind only severed limbs and a thick layer of flesh covering the ground.

"vomit!"
