Chapter 239: Beast Demons Sudden Assault

equired a more circuitous journey. The map he bought himself, on the other hand, was much closer and followed a major road."It seems that Senior Qing really intends to deceive me," Schenxiang silently...Chapter 239: Beast Demon Raid

Shen Xiang couldn't help but feel enamored by the Soul Eater Crossbow. He decided to take it and modify it for Liu Meng’er in the future, making it even more powerful. If possible, he hoped that Liu Meng'er could produce more of these so that the people around him would be much stronger in battle. What if he could shoot dozens of arrows at once and hit the same target Just imagining it made him excited, but this item was difficult to forge. He knew very well that the method of forging it had already been lost, even beyond his understanding.

After shooting all three arrows, the three disciples of the Beast Gate who were hiding inside the tree cores would have to stay there forever. They would never have imagined that their tombs would be inside the tree cores.

The path was circular, not going deep into the forest. It could be seen that those disciples of the Beast Gate knew how dangerous it was, and even they were hesitant to enter. However, the altar was located in a slightly deeper area. Shen Xiang planned to break that altar and destroy it, as the altar held terrifying power; not only could it communicate with the Demon Realm but also awaken some formidable beings sleeping there, even allowing the array covering the area to be dissolved.

A ritual ceremony was needed for the Demon Realm’s demons to release their power or receive useful items. In most cases, a live human sacrifice was required for the ceremony.

Suddenly, the ground started trembling as fierce fighting sounds came from afar. Shen Xiang’s heart leaped with alarm, and he jumped onto a high branch of the tree, looking towards the front. Many people wearing black clothes were slashing around ten people with large weapons.

It was a Beastman, and there were actually several hundred of them. They surrounded those ten people tightly, with thirty others taking action together, controlled by six people.

"Little Dragon, find those six guys quickly," Shen Xiang said. Then, he flew forward very discreetly.

As Shen Xiang approached, Long Xueyi quickly found the location of those six people. He was sure that these six were newcomers, as there would be no way to find such a large number of Beastmen.

These six people were not hiding inside the tree cores but were instead inside the tree crowns, throwing short swords from above to attack those ten people occasionally.

"It’s the Proud Sword Sect and Beast Martial Gate!" Shen Xiang was alarmed as he knew that members of these two sects had joined forces, warned him to be cautious of their disciples.

There was Gan Jiujian in the Proud Sword Sect. Shen Xiang had humiliated him greatly before, and Gan Jiujian couldn’t possibly have forgiven him. However, Shen Xiang didn't care about that now; if they wanted to kill him, he would definitely defend himself and kill them with extreme cruelty.

With one arrow, Shen Xiang used a large black crossbow to crush the disciple of the Beast Gate into pieces. Then, he kept shooting, hitting several arrows when those Beastmen were still confused. These disciples of the Beast Gate weren’t very strong, around level three True Martial Realm. Even with a True Qi shield protecting them, they couldn’t withstand the attack of Shen Xiang’s Kun Tian True Qi condensed into arrows through Soul Eater Crossbow.

The Beastmen didn’t understand what was happening as disciples of the Proud Sword Sect and Beast Martial Gate sighed with relief. If all these Beastmen flew over, they would only end up as sacrifices.

Shen Xiang walked towards them, still holding the Soul Eater Crossbow. Those ten people’s nerves were on edge again when they saw Shen Xiang coming, sensing the danger as if facing a great enemy.

Gan Jiujian and his group weren’t stupid, naturally realizing that these several hundred Beastmen were being controlled. The explosion heard earlier should have been the one controlling them killed. Seeing Shen Xiang’s Soul Eater Crossbow, they immediately understood that he saved them.

This made them feel very bad as they all wanted to kill Shen Xiang. One reason was because he had a price tag of fifteen million crystal stones, and the other was because Shen Xiang was quite famous. Killing him would make them known.

However, now they were all hesitant to move. They knew that they weren’t on par with Shen Xiang.

The disciples of the Proud Sword Sect had an inherent bad temper, being very arrogant to begin with. Even if they were saved, they didn’t feel grateful. The disciples of Beast Martial Gate had been indoctrinated by their sect to hate Tai Wu Sect and them, Shen Xiang. Hence, these disciples would often sneak into the borders of Tai Wu Sect to kill civilians and feed their demon beasts. However, after Shen Xiang revealed it once, they didn’t dare to come anymore; getting Tai Wu Sect angry could mean the extinction of their Beast Martial Gate.

Seeing these ten people frowning, as if they were insulted by his attempt to rescue them, Shen Xiang regretted interfering. However, if he didn’t save them, they would be captured as sacrifices and cause even more trouble.

"We won’t thank you," Gan Jiujian said coldly.

"I didn’t say thank you, but I wanted to tell you something. Whether you want to listen or not, I’m going to say it!" Shen Xiang simply told them what was happening. Although they were surprised and admired how he discovered the conspiracy, their hearts were not happy, feeling envious.

"Forget it! We don’t want any of your lies!" a disciple from Beast Martial Gate said.

"Believe it or not, but I hope you don’t harm everyone else," Shen Xiang said as he took out the Green Dragon Demon Slayer Blade and started slashing the standing Beastmen. The speed and ruthlessness of his blade made those ten people’s backs sweat, with envy growing in their hearts.

Just when Shen Xiang was halfway through, a very disgusting roar resounded along with intense demon energy. Immediately, Shen Xiang could tell that it was a very powerful Beast Demon.

Indeed, something monstrous and crocodile-like suddenly flew in, its body huge. It had hard scales covering it, shining with black light and a mouth full of sharp teeth spraying real black aura. This crocodile-like Beast Demon started biting the Beastmen upon arrival.

What made Shen Xiang shocked was that this crocodile-like Beast Demon had incredible speed, his forehead already covered in cold sweat due to its strength.

The crocodile-like Beast Demon’s massive body quickly devoured those Beastmen, staring at Shen Xiang with terrifying eyes.

"Here it comes!" Long Xueyi shouted as Shen Xiang disappeared, the crocodile-like Beast Demon’s mouth biting empty air, crushing a large tree.

Shen Xiang was still shaken by the encounter. If he were even a little bit slower, his body might have been crushed by that powerful mouth.

As he was on his way, he prayed not to encounter such a formidable Beast Demon, but now he still did. He could only sigh inwardly about his bad luck.

Gan Jiujian and his group were delighted when they saw the crocodile-like Beast Demon attacking Shen Xiang, quickly fleeing. This made Shen Xiang curse inwardly.ed woman tried to pull back her whip, but despite using all her strength, Scenery Xiang remained like a massive mountain, unmoving.
