Chapter 135: The big demon delays the interception, the small demon retreats first
When the monsters heard Lang Wubai say that the two bear-shaped Sky-Howling Beasts were both of the first grade of the Heavenly Rank, the big monsters were able to remain calm.
All the little demons from the three tribes were so frightened that they almost stopped breathing.
Xu Zhenfeng immediately turned around and looked back. He could vaguely see where the leopards and apes were hiding.
He approached Lang Wubai and whispered something to him. Lang Wubai immediately lowered his body and, under the cover of the elephant and bear tribes in front, sneaked quickly towards the hiding place of the leopard and ape tribes.
Bao Cang also saw the two Heaven-level Sky-howling Beasts and was nervous. When he saw Lang Wubai running over quietly, he didn't have time to ask any questions.
Lang Wubai said, “All the big monsters should go and intercept and delay those two Heavenly Tier Sky Howling Beasts, and let the small monsters leave first.
If the great monsters of the leopard and ape tribes do not come to cooperate and delay the interception, the leopard tribe will never be able to join the eight great monster tribes of Monster Mountain. If the ape tribe produces six more great monsters, it will never be able to join the upper monster tribe. "
After he said these words, he turned and left, not giving Bao Cang any chance to speak.
Bao Cang was so angry that his beard trembled, but he had to go.
As members of the same demon race, no matter what conflicts or differences there are between them, when facing a powerful enemy, they must fight in coordination and advance and retreat together.
This is the iron rule of the Demon Mountain that has existed for thousands of years and cannot be changed or negotiated.
If Bao Cang dares to disobey, not only will the Leopard Clan no longer be able to join the ranks of the eight major demon clans, but the entire clan will also face the unforgivable punishment of being reduced to a lower-level demon clan for more than a thousand years.
Bao Cang turned his head and glanced at Bao Yan, and said, "You lead the team and retreat with the little monsters from the three tribes of elephant, bear and wolf."
Bao Yan nodded with a serious face, and Yuan Qian also instructed the little demon leading the team from his tribe, and the two big demons came to the team of the three tribes.
The little demons from the three tribes of elephant, bear and wolf had already retreated to the back. Xiang Sheng, Bear Wu Ju, and Wolf Wu Bai were all standing in the front, covering the little demons' retreat.
Bao Cang and Yuan Qian also put on their armor and came to the middle of the three great monsters, watching the two Heavenly Grade Sky Roar Beasts slowly walking towards them.
At this time Xiang Sheng said: "Xiong Wu'e and I will take the lead, Yuan Qian will carry the load, Wu Bai and Bao Cang will retreat and prepare."
The ape tribe is not a pure meat shield race. Their meat shield ability is not as good as that of the bear tribe, and their attack ability is not as good as that of the lion, tiger, leopard and wolf tribes.
Fortunately, they are the only demon clan that can walk upright and have more flexible limbs.
At this moment, when there are not enough meat shields, the apes can only take over.
Yuan Qian stood between Xiang Sheng and Xiong Wu Jue. He hunched his body slightly and looked extremely nervous. In his hand he was holding a large black iron stick that was thick at one end and thin at the other.
This big stick looks very much like the super-sized baseball bat that Xu Zhenfeng used in his previous life.
Xu Zhenfeng led the three tribes of little demons and kept retreating. After retreating to the leopard and ape tribes, he ordered the five tribes to enter the woods together and continue to move upstream.
After they retreated for dozens of miles, they finally crossed the stream and headed upstream. He and Lang Wubai had already agreed to wait for the big monsters to return on the mountain where they had originally cut off the stream.
On the way back, Bao Yan said nothing, only secretly glancing at Xu Zhenfeng with a sinister look from time to time.
Xu Zhenfeng's spiritual perception was extremely sharp, so he just ignored it.
After the five tribes of little demons retreated back to the mountains, the elephant tribe, the bear tribe, and the ape tribe began to carry huge rocks up the mountain to build a defense formation.
The wolf and leopard tribes sent out little demons to patrol the surroundings.
The leader of the ape tribe is called Yuan Shou. He came up to Xu Zhenfeng and said nervously, "We in the ape tribe all have little monkeys who are close to us. They can climb up high trees and do patrol duties. But they are not fast, so they can only use their voices to warn each other."
Xu Zhenfeng glanced at him. This little ape demon's cultivation level was at the fifth level of the Profound Realm, which was considered outstanding among all the little demons.
He was not a very big man, and when standing upright he was only slightly taller than Xu Zhenfeng in wolf form.
"Well, send ten little monkeys to stand guard on the surrounding trees. If you find anything wrong, alert the wolves patrolling below."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shou nodded vigorously, as if he was very honored that his words were accepted by Xu Zhenfeng.
Watching Yuan Shou dispatching the little monsters of his tribe, Xu Zhenfeng was worried about the battle among the big monsters.
On Lang Wubai's side, the battle had already begun.
Two first-grade Sky Roar beasts, one male and one female, actually knew how to cooperate with each other in battle.
Xiang Sheng bore the majority of the damage. Xiong Wu Jue and Yuan Qian could only cooperate to distract the two Skyhou Beasts from attacking Xiang Sheng with all their strength. They also had to guard against the two Skyhou Beasts suddenly turning to attack them.
Lang Wubai and Bao Cang could only attack one Skyroar Beast each to prevent the main beast from bearing too much pressure.
However, the skin and flesh of the Heavenly Grade bear-shaped Skyroar Beast have been trained to be extremely strong.
As long as Lang Wubai and Bao Cang cannot bite the weakly defended vital parts, they can only cause minor skin injuries to them.
Xiang Sheng was scratched by the Skyhou Beast so hard that blood was flowing from his forehead. He was also bitten on the right leg where the armor couldn't protect it. Large pieces of skin and flesh were torn off and went into the Skyhou Beast's stomach.
Although Yuan Qian had just entered the eighth level of the Earth Rank, his aura was still not stable.
But his body was much more flexible than Xiong Wu Jue and Xiang Sheng, and he had a huge black iron stick in his hand.
The heads of the two Skyroar beasts were also hit by him several times.
The five big monsters fought while retreating downstream, hoping to drag the two Sky Roar Beasts away. It would be even better if they could encounter other monsters.
The gap between the half-step heavenly rank and the true first-grade heavenly rank is too huge, and the five great monsters are all injured at this time.
Originally, Lang Wubai wanted to fight for a while and then escape for a while, pulling the two Skyroar Beasts with him to consume as much of their strength as possible.
Even if we don't encounter other monsters, it would be fine if we can wear down the two Skyroar Beasts until they are tired and don't want to fight anymore, and then we can retreat.
But after Xiang Sheng was injured in the leg, his running speed was limited, and they could only move the battlefield slowly downstream.
. . . . . .
On this side of the mountain, a defensive formation made of huge rocks has taken shape.
Xu Zhenfeng stood at the highest point of the mountain and looked downstream in the stream. The sky had already darkened, but he still could not see the monsters.
Bao Yan sat on the side, and seeing Xu Zhenfeng constantly walking around on the top of the mountain, he sneered in his heart.
He wasn't that worried about Bao Cang. If the time came when they all needed to escape, with the speed of the leopard tribe, even the Heavenly Grade Bear-Shaped Sky Roar Beast might not be able to catch up.
What's more, Leopard Rock doesn't need to run the fastest, he just needs to run faster than the bear and elephant tribes.
As the sky got darker, Xu Zhenfeng became more anxious.
The little demons all returned to their defensive positions and gathered in groups to rest.
Only the little monkeys of the ape tribe were released to guard the treetops at the foot of the mountain.
They were not planning on hunting again tonight as several high-quality Skyroar Beasts had appeared in succession, so they were just in case.
Without the big demons to protect them, these little demons could only build defensive positions in this place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack to protect themselves first.
