Chapter 1167 - 1045: The Otherworld Army
"I really didn't expect this fire element Heavenly Stone to be so difficult to deal with!"Xuanzhen's subordinates recalled this experience, feeling that the Nine Phase World was indeed extraordinary.
He hadn't anticipated that the fire element Heavenly Stone would be in a mountain surrounded by rolling molten lava, and they needed to find a tiny channel through the lava to locate the fire element beacon.
Xuanzhen's subordinates quickly led Duan Gujin and the others away; he didn't want to delay further.
Just as they were leaving the lava, they saw a large group of exotic realm creatures ahead.
That large group of exotic realm creatures riding fierce beasts, upon seeing them appear, immediately shouted excitedly.
Some of the exotic realm creatures even crushed the treasures crafted from their realm to inform other companions that something was happening here.
Although the exotic realm creatures were not skilled at crafting treasures, they possessed many unique materials, which allowed them to forge simple yet practical treasures.
For example, the treasures in their hearts and hands.
Within ten breaths, other adventure teams who entered this place saw the distress signals from the treasures in their hands and swiftly moved towards the group of exotic realm creatures facing Duan Gujin and the others.
"We'll cut our way out from the left! We must get to that high ground!"
Xuanzhen's subordinates quickly analyzed the terrain and came to a conclusion.
There was only a narrow passage behind them, with scorching volcanic magma on both sides of the passage.
They needed to dodge to a relatively safe place; they didn't want to be crashed into the lava pool behind them by the fierce beasts of those exotic realm creatures.
They quickly dodged into a small hill and immediately set up some defensive works within it.
Duan Gujin swept his gaze over the large group of exotic realm creatures ahead and soon confirmed that there were thirty-seven of them, all riding fierce beasts at the Martial Emperor Realm level.
Both the exotic realm creatures ahead and they themselves could only unleash the strongest combat power of the Ninth Level Martial Emperor here.
Because both sides were affected by such Rule Power, Duan Gujin and his martial artists knew they had to employ their Divine Weapons to defeat the exotic realm creatures, who had a numerical advantage.
Meanwhile, they were also very worried about reinforcements for those exotic realm creatures nearby.
If reinforcements arrived, they would find it even more difficult to deal with the numerically superior exotic realm creatures.
Those thirty-seven exotic realm creatures, upon seeing Duan Gujin and the other martial artists, gathered and discussed.
After a while, they concluded that they would go forward to pursue and kill Duan Gujin and the others.
"They're not moving ahead; now is our best chance to strike!"
The exotic realm creature leading the team said excitedly.
During their time in the Nine Phase World, they had put in much effort and finally found a Heavenly Stone, completing the task assigned by the State Preceptor, thus avoiding punishment.
However, the State Preceptor had explicitly told them that if they found more Heavenly Stones here, they would receive substantial rewards.
The exotic realm creatures present were eager to receive the rewards promised by the State Preceptor, which spurred them to bravely move forward.
The exotic realm creature team present consisted of elite members who had prior encounters with Divine World Martial Artists, having killed quite a few of them.
In their minds, Divine World Martial Artists were not to be feared.
To them, the small team led by Duan Gujin was just a bunch of worthless opponents.
"I was terrified just now; when they suddenly ran out, I thought we had encountered the main force of the Divine World!"
The exotic realm creature who sent the signal earlier felt remorse, regretting sending the message.
But it was too late now; he knew their next task was to quickly eliminate Duan Gujin and the others ahead.
The exotic realm creatures present had fought multiple battles with Divine World Martial Artists, gaining some experience and lessons.
They understood that all living creatures here were subject to the Rule Power and could only exert the combat power of the Ninth Level Martial Emperor.
Through numerous battles, they realized that to defeat Divine World Martial Artists of the same realm, they needed at least twice the numbers to break even.
Earlier, they hadn't clearly seen the number of Divine World Martial Artists on Duan Gujin's side, but soon they observed that there were only nine Divine World Martial Artists, while they had thirty-seven exotic realm creatures.
Numerically, they outnumbered the Divine World Martial Artists ahead by more than four times.
They believed they could defeat the nine Divine World Martial Artists and thus charged forward collectively.
Seeing the large group of exotic realm creatures charging toward them, Xuanzhen's subordinates instructed everyone to prepare for battle, while he prepared to unleash Thunderbolt Electric Arrows.
He retrieved a long bow from the storage ring and then drew nine long arrows simultaneously.
His Divine Sense locked onto the charging exotic realm creatures before shooting the arrows.
Once the nine long arrows launched from the long bow, a stream of light flashed across the shafts, followed by a rapid whoosh as they hurtled toward the nine targeted exotic realm creatures with astonishing momentum.
