Chapter 462 Two people died
The black-eyed demon lizard flicked its tongue, and the moment its teeth touched the cultivator, it bit through his body.
As Cheng Yu watched the dead cultivator, he realized with a deep sense that the Black Nest was fraught with danger.
Five S-class demonic creatures—how could they possibly defeat them, even Nascent Soul cultivators? Even a Deity Transformation cultivator would struggle for half a day to defeat them, let alone Nascent Soul cultivators.
During the university competition, Cheng Yu would avoid S-class monsters whenever he encountered them, and he only dared to face them when the competition was almost over.
The difference between S-rank and A-rank monsters is enormous.
Cheng Yu was in despair. In fact, he sent a message as soon as he saw the demon, but the journey was long and it would take at least twenty minutes for the army and cultivators to arrive.
Now, a cultivator has died in just two minutes. Cheng Yu can't imagine how he'll get through the next twenty minutes.
Like Cheng Yu, many cultivators felt fear upon seeing the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard's attack power.
Logically speaking, it would take at least several dozen Nascent Soul cultivators to kill one S-rank demon. With only these few people, how could they possibly contend with five S-rank Black-Eyed Demon Lizards?
"We're finished, we can't win."
"Don't say such discouraging things."
"How can you say that? Didn't you see? That cultivator was just torn to shreds by the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard. If the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard attacks again, we won't be able to dodge it at all."
"Sigh, five S-class monsters, and they even spawned randomly. It's true what they say, when you're down on your luck, even drinking cold water can cause problems."
"Why don't we just run away? Maybe we can still survive."
"I think so too. Anyone who gets bitten by that monster's sharp teeth will die instantly. Who could withstand that?"
“That’s right, I’m wondering the same thing. Why not run away and instead choose to fight the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard here when we can’t possibly win?”
After the death of a cultivator, fear was fully aroused, and the previously compliant cultivators suddenly had the intention to retreat. They looked at Jiang He, clearly not wanting to continue fighting the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard.
"If you want to fight, then fight; if you want to leave, then leave. Stop talking nonsense. If you're so capable, then leave. Just don't make us collect your corpse if you die on the way."
Without uttering a single word, Li Ling observed the demon and, in the blink of an eye, ten arrays appeared in mid-air.
It's unclear whether this magic array is targeting demons or cultivators.
"An S-class monster is no big deal. If anyone deserts, he'll be the first one I kill."
Zhong Liyu continued from Li Ling's words.
If there are deserters, the other cultivators will only feel more demoralized, and the worst thing in a fight is to be weak in spirit.
"Alright, alright, everyone, let's all keep quiet and focus on the direction the monster is heading."
Long Aotian stepped in to smooth things over, as the five of them had fought many monsters together and naturally developed a tacit understanding.
There must be someone to play the bad cop, and someone else to play the good cop.
Long Aotian spoke up to ease the tension.
The Black-Eyed Demon Lizard came on menacingly. Zhong Liyu glanced at the cultivator who had stirred up the emotions at the beginning. He wanted to say something more, but one of the cultivators was so frightened that, whether he was provoked or really wanted to run away, he quickly turned around and flew away from the group on his sword.
"you……"
Zhong Liyu watched the cultivator leave, but before she could utter a word of dissuasion, the demonic lizard seized the opportunity and pierced the cultivator's body with its sharp fangs.
The event happened in an instant, and none of the cultivators paid much attention.
Until a splash of blood appeared two meters away from them.
Perhaps because the black-eyed demon lizard had pierced his abdominal artery, the cultivator who was trying to escape on his sword was bleeding profusely, like a broken doll.
As he fell from the sword, Zhong Liyu and the other cultivators flew over.
The S-grade demonic lizard possessed formidable explosive power, and the fallen cultivator was already lifeless.
Because the accident happened so quickly, many cultivators fell silent when they saw the dead cultivators and recalled what Zhongli Yu had just said.
To not escape is to die.
Even if you escape, you'll still die.
Like a cycle of death, they weighed the pros and cons, and in the end, no one dared to run away alone again, for no one could outrun the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard.
In addition, the venom of the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard can easily kill cultivators.
All the cultivators stopped thinking about running away and began to focus on the present moment.
After this incident, the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard killed two cultivators in one fell swoop, and its momentum gradually increased.
From the beginning, the Black-Eyed Demon Lizards realized that these humans were not very strong. Out of caution, they chose the most common hunting method: to hide and then kill them with a powerful burst of strength.
But after the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard easily killed people, they realized the level of these people's cultivation, so they simply stopped even doing the most basic concealment.
To reveal one's true form directly.
The Black-Eyed Demon Lizard's body was exposed in the air.
Cheng Yu looked closely and saw three black-eyed demon lizards hanging on the surrounding tree trunks.
Their mouths were slightly open, and their sharp teeth were faintly visible.
Cheng Yu turned around and faced the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard.
Since there's no way to escape anyway, we might as well fight to the death.
Cheng Yu thought desperately that, in his opinion, they were no match for these five S-rank Black-Eyed Demon Lizards. It wasn't that he was being too absolute.
Anyone with eyes can see the number and cultivation level of the cultivators in their group.
These people were no match for the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard at all; no matter how powerful Jiang He was, it was useless.
Cheng Yu had seen the live stream of Jiang He and others fighting against the super S-class monster, but what could he do about it?
This is not a holographic competition, nor is it a university-wide competition.
The monsters were not just a series of simple numbers; what appeared before them were genuine S-rank monsters.
The stark reality left Cheng Yu quite bewildered; he wanted to run away.
Having learned from past mistakes, Cheng Yu quietly stayed in the team and listened to Long Aotian's commands.
How can I possibly endure twenty minutes...?
This was not only Cheng Yu's question, but also the question of the other cultivators present.
The Black-Eyed Demon Lizards' attacks never stopped. Most of them, being in the Nascent Soul stage, did not have mutated spiritual roots, and they could only rely on their own reaction speed to dodge each attack.
It can be said that almost every dodge consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy, and in order to survive, adrenaline surged.
Countless times I teetered on the brink of death, and countless times I narrowly escaped it.
Jiang He noticed the battle situation and used her personal terminal to pull everyone into a team.
In the team channel, Jiang He's voice commands could be clearly transmitted to the ears of every cultivator.
Jiang He could pinpoint the Black-Eyed Demon Lizard's location and always inform everyone of the attack direction of the different Black-Eyed Demon Lizards before they attacked.
The five S-rank monsters are numbered 1-5, with different numbers representing them.
Report the location and issue the attack command.
Under Jiang He's command, the academy cultivators in the team gradually discovered that their attack skills were being used to their fullest potential.
Almost every attack brought their potential to its fullest potential.
And when they feel tired, they will receive another buff.
Jiang He is both a sword cultivator and a healer.
When the state is at its fullest, the cultivator can unleash a powerful attack after completing a smooth combo.
Even they themselves were shocked.
