Chapter 781 - Can Beat then Fight, Can’t Beat then Run

Ling Chuxi circulated all her Qi of True Essence to send out a slash, and there was an explosion of qi flow amidst loud ringing. Ling Chuxi stumbled back a couple of steps, and the Silver Crowned Golden Wing Condor was also shaken, flying back up mid-way.

It truly was a Level 9 monster beast that was second only to a demon king! Ling Chuxi did not have an advantage at all. However, logically, monster beasts that had reached Level 8 were able to take on human form. This monster beast did not take on a human form though… Was it because this array summoned them in their original form?

Seeing the Silver Crowned Golden Wing Condor flying overhead once again, Ling Chuxi could only use the Cang Yuan Sword Style. A sharp cry sounded, and the monster beast was sent flying back by the strike. A few of its golden feathers floated to the ground, and it continued to circle mid-air, not daring to come down straight away, looking for an opportunity to strike instead.

Ling Chuxi sighed wearily. If it were a human, that move would have been enough to take its life, but the constitution of a monster beast was so tough that the move did not even severely injure it.

Taking advantage of the Silver Crowned Golden Wing Condor not daring to come down, Ling Chuxi took the time to recover her strength. The Cang Yuan Sword Style really consumed a lot of Qi of True Essence.

Suddenly, another beast howl rang out from within the dark hole.

“More?” Ling Chuxi’s heart pounded in her chest. A Silver Crowned Golden Wing Condor that surpassed Level 9 was already hard to deal with, if another came, then…

Just as she was thinking about it, a massive pitch black monster beast with a hide that gleamed like iron rushed out of the black hole, charging at her.

“Iron Armored Demon Ox!” Ling Chuxi sucked in a startled breath. Also a monster beast that surpassed Level 9, the Iron Armored Demon Ox had an iron-like defense and terrifying strength. When it came to offensive strength, it was even stronger than the Silver Crowned Golden Wing Condor.

Ling Chuxi knew she had to avoid it. If she could beat it, she would fight and ruthlessly beat it. If she couldn’t beat it, then she had to escape. That was Ling Chuxi’s motto all along. However, now that she was trapped within the array barrier, how could she escape?

As she was just thinking of a way to break the array barrier, the two powerful monster beasts roared, one from above and one from below, and both of them lunged at Ling Chuxi.

Ling Chuxi gritted her teeth and clenched her Luo Chen Sword tightly, slashing at the two monster beasts. If she could not escape, then she could only fight to the death. That was also Ling Chuxi’s motto.

Within the blood-colored mist, waves of strong qi were flowing like a hurricane. Ling Chuxi gave it her all with the Cang Yuan Sword Style. With death right around the corner, she had surprisingly gained a better understanding of this style of Cang Yuan Swordplay. A lot of areas she had found hard to understand a couple of days back were suddenly easily understood. Unfortunately, the time was still not enough, and she couldn’t kill two monster beasts over Level 9 with just this enlightenment.

Ling Chuxi’s Qi of True Essence was also quickly depleting, and as her energy started to feel insufficient, signs of exhaustion started to show on her body.

Aunt Yi and Qing Lingyan did not immediately rush to attack, and instead stood by the side, sneering.

“Ling Chuxi, you should just obediently accept death. The Demon Emperor Beast Blood Great Array can summon the three strongest monster beasts within a radius of ten thousand miles. Even if you can withstand these two, what about the third one? That will be the strongest monster beast. Throw your sword away now and I can let you die happily with an intact corpse,” Qing Lingyan hissed in glee, wanting to personally kill Ling Chuxi.

“If you put it like that, then I shall also make sure to leave you an intact corpse later.” Ling Chuxi knew that Qing Lingyan was not lying. This Demon Emperor Beast Blood Great Array would soon summon an even stronger monster beast, but there was no way she could just give up like that!

Ling Chuxi looked at Qing Lingyan coldly and made a decision. Even if she were to die, she would absolutely not let Qing Lingyan off.

Seeing Ling Chuxi’s icy gaze, Qing Lingyan felt a baffling sense of terror in her heart. She quickly turned away, averting her gaze.
