Chapter 73 Night Toad
boom!
The talisman struck the long tongue, producing an explosive sound.
quack!
The talisman Yu Huai used was a top-grade talisman. Taking the hit head-on, the attacking beast cried out in pain and released its long tongue, throwing Yao Mai heavily to the ground.
cough cough cough.
Yao Mai coughed a few times until he spat out a mouthful of blood before he recovered. But he didn't dare to relax. He quickly stood up, steadied himself, and looked ahead. Then his face hardened.
Yu Huai, meanwhile, stared solemnly at the towering figure several meters tall ahead.
The figure was entirely black like jade, with a smooth surface. Its eyes were fixed on Yu Huai and the other person. It had dark markings on its abdomen and was a toad-like monster.
When this demon crouched, it resembled a black stone, which made it extremely difficult to discern. This is why Yu Huai and the other man failed to notice it at first, allowing Yao Mai to suffer such a blow.
First-tier top-grade monster!
"The Black Jade Night-Guarding Toad!"
Upon seeing the monster, Yao Mai clearly recognized it, his face paled in shock, and he blurted out.
A first-tier top-grade demonic beast is equivalent to a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator. If it is a demonic beast with an amazing bloodline, it can also awaken its innate divine power at this time.
This is a bit tricky!
Yu Huai's expression was extremely solemn at this moment.
His [Avoid Minor Disasters] skill could only help him avoid minor calamities. Even with [Luck], he couldn't possibly avoid a demonic beast that was clearly guarding this place.
Although he was confident that he could fight against a cultivator who had reached the peak of Qi Refining, this was not a cultivator, but a demon beast.
A typical first-tier top-grade demonic beast is much stronger than a typical Qi Refining Perfection cultivator.
He was able to kill a first-tier high-grade demonic beast at the late stage of Qi Refining, but he wasn't very confident that he could kill a first-tier top-grade demonic beast.
But it's just that he's not sure, not that he has no chance. If he uses all his trump cards, even if the demon doesn't die, he'll lose a lot of his strength.
"Fellow Daoist Yu Huai, this is a top-grade first-tier demonic beast. We must escape quickly."
Yao Mai then reminded Yu Huai.
But as soon as Yao Mai finished speaking, the black jade night toad seemed to know what the two of them were about to do. It jumped up, and a surging wave of air pressed straight down on the two of them.
not good!
Before Yu Huai could reply to Yao Mai, he saw the huge figure approaching from above and thought to himself that something was wrong. He used the Perfected Green Bamboo Step and rushed towards the back of the passage they had come from at great speed. Seeing this, Yao Mai also shot towards the passage, trying to escape from there.
However, at that very moment...
A long tongue struck the two of them even faster than expected.
The stench hit him hard, and Yu Huai had no choice but to stop and dodge to the side. But his hands didn't stop. He made a hand seal and summoned several flying swords to slash at the long tongue that was still moving forward.
laugh!
The flying sword slashed several wounds on the long tongue.
Yao Mai also dodged to the side, and taking advantage of the opportunity, several spells were also launched at the long tongue.
quack!
The Black Jade Night Toad, in pain, retracted its long tongue, but in that instant, its leap caused it to crash into the top of the passage.
Rumble!
Immediately afterwards, a loud rumble came from above the passage, and it collapsed, blocking the only exit of the tomb.
This top-grade demonic beast clearly possessed a certain level of intelligence. It realized that Yu Huai and his companion wanted to escape through that passage, so it smashed it down, cutting off their escape route.
Yu Huai and Yao Mai met up and were both stunned by what they saw. After regaining their senses, they hurriedly retreated, moving away from the black jade night toad.
Now that the exit is blocked, the huge rocks blocking the way must be cleared to escape.
But now that there's a top-tier Black Jade Night Toad guarding the area, this is going to be difficult.
"Fellow Daoist Yu Huai, this demonic beast has clearly developed some intelligence; it has actually crashed through the passage, blocking our way out. What should we do now?"
Yao Mai asked with a solemn expression.
"There are no other exits from here now. The only way for us to escape is to kill this top-tier demonic beast!"
Yu Huai had already grasped the Qing Sui Sword in his hand, ready to fight the Black Jade Night Toad.
Slay this Black Jade Night-Guarding Toad?
Hearing what Yu Huai said, Yao Mai was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.
This is a top-tier, first-order demonic beast!
It is equivalent to a cultivator who has reached the peak of Qi Refining.
We're only at the late Qi Refining stage, how can we possibly kill this monster? Even with your dual cultivation of body and magic, it would still be difficult, wouldn't it?
Could it be that he has some trump card up his sleeve?
That's right, he's a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect, and the chosen one I've chosen. How could he not have any trump cards up his sleeve?
That's what they always say in storybooks.
However, this seems to be the only way to escape.
However, Yao Mai didn't have time to think too much, as the black jade night toad not far away once again stuck out its long tongue and attacked Yu Huai and the other two.
"They're here!"
Yu Huai gave a warning, then used his movement technique to dodge the long tongue and attacked the black jade night toad at the same speed.
Seeing this, Yao Mai, a cultivator who had practiced for many years, reacted very quickly. He used his movement technique to dodge the attack and, without much hesitation, followed Yu Huai and attacked the black jade night toad.
Boom boom boom!
Several spells struck it, producing a series of explosive sounds.
However, the black jade night-guarding toad had thick skin and flesh, and Yu Huai's several perfect spells could only cause it some minor damage.
Yao Mai's magic was even more pathetic; it couldn't even break through the skin.
Its long tongue lashed out at Yu Huai and his companion with incredible speed within the tomb.
Yu Huai possessed the perfect Green Bamboo Steps, making it easy for him to dodge the long tongue, but Yao Mai was different.
If it weren't for this speed-increasing talisman, I probably would have already been hit.
Dragging this out isn't a solution.
This black jade night-watching toad has thick skin and flesh, so it's unrealistic to try and kill it by grinding it down like this. It's possible that by the time the spiritual energy is exhausted, it won't have been able to hurt it much.
As Yu Huai thought to himself, he dodged the attacking long tongue and, in a few steps, he had already approached the black jade night-guarding toad.
Faced with the stench emanating from its body, Yu Huai slightly gathered his strength in his Green Tassel Sword and slashed at the demon's back.
With the "Charge" attribute, this attack is significantly more powerful.
A flash of cold light.
laugh!
The Azure Dragon Sword pierced through the demon's back.
However, before Yu Huai could feel any joy, he saw the black jade night toad raise one claw, with streams of black water attached to it, and strike Yu Huai at an extremely fast speed.
Ok?
Yu Huai reacted quickly, taking advantage of the "Quick Hands" attribute to pull out another top-grade talisman.
This is a defensive talisman.
Just as the claw was about to strike Yu Huai, the talisman was activated, and in an instant, it transformed into a stone shield, covering Yu Huai.
boom!
Encased in the stone shield, Yu Huai took the claw head-on, flying backward and crashing into the stone wall.
"Fellow Daoist Yu Huai!"
Yao Mai was shocked to see this.
The stone shield crumbled after being struck.
Yu Huai coughed and emerged from the dust, nodding to Yao Mai. With the stone shield in front of him and the physique of Chun Ling, he was not injured.
