Chapter 40: Team Up

Now most of the disciples have recovered their combat effectiveness. The two third-level monsters are no problem, but the fifth-level monster is a bit tricky. It is equivalent to the strength of a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building. The highest level of their current cultivation is the great perfection of Qi training, so they can only restrain it. To hunt it down and kill it, they will probably need other means.

"Wait a moment, you guys deal with the two third-level monsters, and I'll find a way to delay the fifth-level monster. We need to leave here as soon as possible. The secret realm will be closed soon, so we need to get to the exit of the secret realm as soon as possible." Yun Shang said.

"There is still half a month left before the secret realm closes. We should leave quickly. Maybe we can find some elixirs."

"That's unlikely. The outer area of ​​the secret realm has basically been visited by the disciples who have entered. There is no chance for us to get any spiritual medicine."

"Well, be careful when you get out to prevent others from killing people and stealing treasures."

"You discuss how to quickly get rid of those two third-level monsters. If it doesn't work, go back to the formation. But if we want to leave this place, we still have to kill them." Yun Shang continued.

"Well, senior sister, it should be no problem for a few of us to deal with two third-level monsters, but can you deal with a fifth-level monster alone?" Xia Tianwang said worriedly.

"It's okay. As long as you can hold back those two third-level monsters, even though I can't kill a fifth-level monster, I won't be easily hurt by it. It would be best if we can drive it away." Yun Shang said.

"Okay, wait a moment. I'll go out to attract the attention of the two monsters first. You guys assist from behind, and then Senior Sister Yun will go to restrain the fifth-level monster." Boss Du said.

"Okay, that's settled." Yun Shang said

"Senior Sister Yun, please be careful and don't get hurt. We will come to help you after we kill those two third-level monsters." said the third son of the Du family.

"Okay, let's do our best."

Yun Shang and the Du family boss flew to the two sides outside the formation at the same time. Yun Shang attracted the attention of the fifth-level monster, and the Du boss attracted the attention of the third-level monster. Sure enough, not long after, the fifth-level monster followed Yun Shang and flew away. On the other side, Xia Tianwang and his men were already fighting with the third-level monster.

"I don't know if Senior Sister Yun will be in danger. That's a fifth-level monster." A cultivator from the Du family said a little worriedly.

"No, looking at what Senior Sister Yun did just now, she must have other ways to save her life. Let's focus on dealing with these two monsters first, and then we can rush over to help." said the eldest brother of the Du family.

"Everyone, hurry up and end the battle as soon as possible."

Here, Yun Shang did not dare to be careless towards the fifth-level monster. At the beginning, the fifth-level monster chased Yun Shang as if it was a fight for fun. She slowly led the monster to a place with dense trees, where the monster could be restricted from flying.

Maybe the fifth-level monster felt the inconvenience of flying, and sensed her intention, and began to attack Yun Shang vigorously. At this time, Yun Shang used the leaves and branches around to deal with the monster. The leaves slashed across the monster like a blade, and the effect of one leaf was not great, but the number was too large. The branches kept wrapping around the monster's body. The fifth-level monster spit out demonic fire to burn the branches wrapped around its body, and then new branches came to wrap around it. Yun Shang's strategy was to tire it to death.

The fifth-level monster realized Yun Shang's intention and suddenly exerted its power, breaking all the branches on its body and blowing away the surrounding leaves, while also sending Yun Shang flying. Yun Shang fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood, then quickly got up, summoned the Hanyue Sword, and sending fire and golden sword energy. She was careless, and now she and the fifth-level monster might have to fight to the death.

Being injured by an ant weaker than itself, the fifth-level monster was extremely angry, which made it decide to end the battle quickly so that it could eat the man as soon as possible to vent its hatred.

The fifth-level monster flapped its wings quickly, and the air around it hit Yun Shang like a hurricane. Fortunately, she was wearing high-level defensive robes, otherwise she would be covered in wounds by the hurricane. The battle must be ended quickly. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for her, and she will be more seriously injured. Yun Shang flew into the air, launched out "Fire Wheel Ring" to the maximum, surrounding the monster, then used Hanyue sword to launch fire and golden sword energy continuously. As soon as the attack appeared, the monster instinctively sensed the danger and immediately spit out demonic fire. In an instant, the surroundings were surrounded by fire. Yun Shang's forehead was constantly sweating, and her whole body felt like it was burned. She felt very uncomfortable.

Yun Shang then summoned flower Lycoris radiata,inject spiritual energy to it and make it enveloped her for defense.

She kept charging fire and golden sword energy to attack the monster. The speed of the sword energy stabbing the monster was getting faster and faster, and the monster's counterattack was getting more and more powerful.

After fighting for a while, when her spiritual power was almost exhausted, Yun Shang activated the talisman bought by her. She could not kill the monster by her own strength. As soon as the talisman was activated, a huge explosion was heard and she was knocked far away by the huge power.

She quickly took the vitality pill, slowly got up, sat cross-legged and took another spirit pill. Her spiritual energy recovered a little and she breathed a sigh of relief. She had to leave here immediately. Even if a third-level monster came, she would not be able to deal with it now.

Arriving at the place where the talisman exploded, the fifth-level monster had been blown into pieces. Yun Shang quickly collected the monster pill and monster meat, regardless of whether they were useful or not, and then prepared to return to the lake.

When they returned to the lake, Xia Tianwang and his team's battle had just ended. They were cleaning up the battlefield and preparing to go find Yun Shang.

"Senior Sister, you're back. We were just about to go look for you." said the third son of the Du family.

"Are you okay? What about the fifth-level monster? Are you injured?" Xia Tianwang asked.

"It's okay, it will be fine in a while, the monster is dead. How about you? Are you okay?"

"We were not seriously injured."

After hearing this, Yun Shang entered the formation to meditate and heal her wounds. When she opened her eyes again, Xia Tianwang and several children of the Du family were already ready. The secret realm would be closed for a few days, so they had to rush back to the exit as soon as possible.

"Senior Sister Yun, let's rush back to the exit of the secret realm together so that we can take care of each other." said the eldest brother of the Du family.

"Yes," Yun Shang thought for a while and said, then stood up, removed the formation plate, and packed up. "Let's go."

"Fellow Daoist Yun, where did you buy that formation plate? It's so powerful that even a fifth-level monster can't attack it." asked Du Laoliu, the girl from the Du family.

As soon as Du Laoliu asked, the eldest brother of the Du family scolded, "Little sister, where do you get so many questions? Senior Sister Yun, please don't mind it."

"It's okay. The formation plate was given to me by my family elders." Yun Shang replied.

No one spoke much for the rest of the walk. The sixth son of the Du family seemed to want to ask something, but was stopped by the eldest son of the Du family.
