Ju Feng was sprawling on the floor after being impacted by the deadly pulse of the fiery fla emitted from the molten lake of fire. The air grew hot around him and wisps of smoke began to appear from the slightly churned ground. As he groggily stood up, he tried to recollect what happened. Although he could only rember being hit by a massive energy blast which felt like a titan's hamr, he knew the intense fiery heat and shock waves must have hit the whole area like a cosmic cot.
The impact had hit him from the back as he was facing a fire snake that was approaching him from the front. It had sent him flying like a fickle straw, several yards backward.
He rembered hitting the ground with a bone cracking sound while the fire snake that was advancing towards him had been dispersed. And that was it. He couldn't rember much after that. How long was he out? He managed to stand up and hurriedly checked himself for any sort of injury. Fortunately, his body was still intact and his torn robe was holding up, also. That ant the fire seal was still working, if not, his robe would have turned to ashes by now. Probably his body too.
What could cause a blast like that, exactly?
He tried to rember what events led to the energy blast. He was ant to get the springster whike tge other cultivator guard against the snake, but the other cultivator went for the sprinster, so he decided to guard against the retreating snake. His back was to the lake, but he ocassionally looked back towards it, in order to monitor the event with the springster. It was during one of those monts of him glancing towards the lake, that he saw the other cultivator's hand closing in on the springster.
And he rembered that it was at this ti that the waters of the lake, started gathering together in a lightning speed. But his attention had been drawn back towards the advancing fire snake. Yes, the cursed fire snake. He didn't want the fire snake to catch him off-guard. So he had faced the fire snake and turned his back to the lake.
He had prepared to engage the snake, but the next thing he felt, was a forceful blast to his back. It was as if the heavenly gods were in immortal disagreent with him.
It must be the lake or the guardian of the circle that caused the blast. Had to do with either of them.
No other reasonable explanation for what happened. While on this, Ju Feng's mind struck back to the springster, making him panicked. He couldn't recall seeing the springster sank into the lake or if it was claid before the deadly pulse. Quickly, he looked around himself. A number of cultivators were also struggling to get up from the impact of the blast. But many others, who he knew could only be body cultivators, were already engaging a raging vortex of liquid fire.
As he regained his full body strength, Ju Feng staggered towards where the springster was. While walking forward, he saw sothing he felt familiar with. He slowly picked it and his nightmare was confird.
A fireglade.
Imdiately, the raging vortex exploded outward in another deafening blast. A shape of orange and white burst into life out it. And a nightmarish and deadly creature of pure liquid-fire manifested. A gigantic ten-headed liquid-fire hydra!
With no need for further confirmation, Ju Feng knew he would be facing another pure liquid-fire Guardia,? As Jufeng gasped, he felt scorching heat run down his throat. He staggered back and held his left arm to protect his exposed eyes as swirling hot trails danced in the air. He could also felt a slight weight pressed in on him from the overwhelming auric presence of the guardian. At the level of a top-grade world artifact body and an ascendant soul.
Titan's torso!
As if a pure liquid-fire hydra wasn't enough, they would be dealing with ten of its deadly heads. Already, one head would be difficult to deal with and now, they got ten to deal with. What had they gotten themselves into? Ju Feng quickly located his sword, just as the voice of the dual golden core ice cultivator, sounded in his mind.
"Heavenly dragon defensive formation!"
The golden core cultivator threw a talisman in his hand towards the hydra. His voice continued to sound in their minds as he leapt into the air.
"Two single-heart formations. One with , the other with Yi Zemin!"
Five body cultivators quickly moved to the front and aligned into a formation to the right as the golden core cultivator, landed in their midst. Another single-heart formation was ford to the left and led by Yi Zemin. The formation to the right was spear-headed by the ice affiliated golden core cultivator who wasted no ti in moving the formation straight into attack.
They were moving like single giant but with many blade phantoms as they engaged the hydra. The soul cultivators inside the defensive formation were using elental projectiles to attack the hydra and support the blade phantoms. The air was roiling with various elental energies in essence blades, essence darts, elental orbs and other forms.
But the battle was mainly being fought by the body cultivators as they drifted in and out of different attack formations. Despite the strain, their bodies were resisting the fiery flas of the hydra. Ju Feng wondered what could cause them to panick or even affect their undying bodies. They were only in their early stages, yet they were this strong?
He quickly located his sword and rejoined the battle. They were intensely, fighting the hydra, when the army of scavens and argonians, attacked. The attack ca from the back. It put them, right at the middle of the assaults from the two sides. The hydra to the front while the scavens and argonians were to the back.
Shadow of death lood heavily on them.
