The Wind of Sorrow was clearly stronger now, yet more Winged Patrol Beasts had gathered outside. Their cries were louder too, and were driving Li Dexin mad.
“The Wind of Sorrow is the Winged Beasts’ protective umbrella. The Winged Beasts have been living in the Qinling Mountains for ages, so their feathers have a special characteristic. When the Wind of Sorrow blows on them, it actually makes their feathers smoother and sharper,” Zhang Xiaohou said.
He already told the group that the Winged Patrol Beasts were not to be underestimated. It was pointless for Li Dexin to drive them away in the first place, as these lesser creatures would gather in numbers once again after the Wind of Sorrow appeared.
Not only were they unhard in the Wind of Sorrow, they could also use the Wind of Sorrow to gain special abilities. anwhile, outsiders had no choice but to hide under the Curtain Trees!
Their level might be the lowest in the Qinling Mountains, but they were afraid of nothing!
A huge gap appeared in the curtains, allowing a strong gust of the Wind of Sorrow to pour through.
A few cuts sliced through the curtains. They were no longer thick enough to shield the area under the Curtain Tree from the Wind of Sorrow. The people behind the curtains imdiately woke up from the cold breeze.
“These assh****, they are destroying the curtains so we can no longer hide behind them!” Zhao Manyan snarled.
These Winged Patrol Beasts were one of the most detestable demon creatures Mo Fan had encountered so far. In addition to their annoying cries, they knew outsiders would struggle to survive in the Wind of Sorrow, so they kept tearing the leaf curtains into pieces so they would have nowhere to hide!
The group finally managed to get so rest, yet their scalps were already turning numb because of these annoying pests.
“Is there any way to slaughter them all?” Li Dexin was a hot-tempered man. He could not stand the annoying creatures any longer!
“No chance, they will imdiately scatter as soon as we go outside. They will return again after a ti. These Winged Patrol Beasts are truly a disgusting species in the Qinling Mountains. Once the scent of their blood spreads after being carried by the Wind of Sorrow up to a dozen kiloters away, the rest of the Winged Patrol Beasts in the local mountains are going to head over right away. These Winged Patrol Beasts are very united in situations like this,” Zhang Xiaohou said.
“So killing them isn’t an option, either? Are you telling us we have to bear with their annoying cries?” Zhao Manyan said.
“More or less, which is why I told you not to provoke them. It might take us so ti to avoid them, but anything is still better than the situation we are now in,” Zhang Xiaohou said calmly.
“Humph, I don’t believe there’s nothing we can’t do! Rest here, I’ll kill them all!” Li Dexin shouted.
Li Dexin was about to lose his mind to the annoying cries of the Winged Patrol Beasts. He could not care less about the deadly Wind of Sorrow outside. He imdiately Summoned his Great Lesser Earth Dragon.
The Wind of Sorrow was inflicting damage over ti, so he could withstand the damage if he could finish the battle quickly enough!
Li Dexin was quite powerful, and did not rely on the Great Lesser Earth Dragon. He jumped along the walls and cast a Light Spell to defend himself while channeling his spell. A huge shadow began to descend from the dark sky!
The Winged Patrol Beasts were lesser creatures, after all. They had no chance of escaping an Advanced Spell. The huge area of effect of the Sky Veil soon smashed dozens of the Winged Patrol Beasts to the ground!
The Great Lesser Earth Dragon was even more savage. It could not fly, but its jumping ability was incredible. It reached the highest spot on the cliff and breathed forth a sandstorm in the direction the Winged Patrol Beasts were clustered in!
The Sandstorm Breath and Li Dexin’s Earth Spell worked together, sealing the escape routes of the Winged Patrol Beasts.
Feathers stained with blood sprinkled down from the sky like dust. The ridge that was calm and quiet just a mont ago was soon in a total ss. The remains of the Winged Patrol Beasts were scattered across the trees, the ground, and the rocks. Many fell into the creek and dyed the water red.
Li Dexin had slaughtered the creatures at a shocking speed. The strong scent of blood soon lingered in the air. The remaining Winged Patrol Beasts fled for their lives after losing the will to fight...
“A bunch of flies dares to act impudently in front of !” Li Dexin harrumphed coldly.
——
The battle soon ca to an end. Li Dexin withdrew his dragon into the Contract Space and went behind the curtains.
“Major General Li, your arm...” Ling Fei noticed.
Li Dexin glanced at his arm, and was shocked to see a bloody cut across it.
“He was only out there for such a short ti!” Advisor Xu exclaid.
The Wind of Sorrow was growing stronger, and was more harmful to human flesh now. Li Dexin was not constantly protecting himself with magic while he was fighting, so both his arms and his face had severely dried up.
“Healing Magic isn’t effective against these kinds of injuries,” Zhang Xiaohou inford him.
“It’s just so minor injuries, it’s fine. The Winged Patrol Beasts have destroyed the curtains. We should keep going,” Li Dexin huffed indifferently.
The remains of the Winged Patrol Beasts were scattered all over the place, reeking of blood. More Winged Patrol Beasts were going to gather in the area in no ti. They could not afford to stay here any longer.
“I can’t guarantee that I can find the next Curtain Tree within three hours,” Zhang Xiaohou ntioned.
“It doesn’t matter, we have three defensive Mages among us. They should have no problem if they take turns to protect us!” Li Dexin declared.
“It’s our only choice now. Let’s go!” Mo Fan said.
Three of the nine people from the Violet Imperial Battalion were adept at defensive spells. They set up magic barriers to protect the group as they ventured deeper into the Qinling Mountains along the narrow path.
—
“How long is this wind going to last? Why isn’t it stopping?” Zhao Manyan said.
It was almost daylight, but the Wind of Sorrow was still blowing. The energy of the first defensive Mage of the Violet Imperial Battalion had been depleted. Another Maga had taken over his role, but it was difficult to tell how long she could last. Her three Elents were not all defensive.
Li Dexin insisted the group keep going. Zhang Xiaohou was against the idea, but the guy never took Zhang Xiaohou’s advice seriously.
Mo Fan was not fussed about Li Dexin’s behavior. After all, they were not the ones expending their energy, and had managed to preserve their strength so far. In fact, the Violet Imperial Battalion was providing them with free protection! Otherwise, they would have no chance of going anywhere while the Wind of Sorrow was still around!
