Even though the situation differs significantly from their intelligence and many surprises have occurred, ultimate victory still belongs to them. Dıscover more novels at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵

Based on their calculations, once Du You’s Mucus Swamp was set ablaze, even if they were scorched, they would utilize fireproof scrolls and antidotes, combined with their inherent power, to only suffer minor injuries that wouldn’t be too harmful.

But who would have thought, the flames would be much more intense than they had expected, resulting in extreme magic and physical energy depletion and severe dehydration.

If they were to undergo such a situation again, their lives would surely be forfeit. Furthermore, the toxicity of the mucus turned out to be higher than expected, causing all of them to show signs of mild poisoning. Even Fang Shuo was not exempted from the mild poisoning. How could its toxicity have increased since Lao San’s last encounter?

Under normal circumstances, mild poisoning would not be a major concern, but the current situation was different.

"Lao San, I will hold them off later. They are on the brink of collapse, you need to escape. As long as you escape and send out this news, that will be enough. If given the chance, avenge me. If not, don’t overexert yourself."

Du You whispered, "46%, enough for another round."

"What do you mean by 46%, are you even listening to me?" Fang Shuo replied exasperated.

What Du You was referring to was his magic power. The massive depletion that just occurred, would have emptied the magic of anyone else, but he still retained nearly half. On the other hand, the coordinated dead soldiers seemed to be almost drained of their magic and Dou Qi.

At first, Du You planned on escaping, but then he realized that the situation had drastically changed. The only uncertainty was the Black-cloaked Leader’s strength. Provided its abilities aren’t too outrageous, it appeared Du You could fight it himself.

"I was saying, it’s time to counterattack."

"Hmph, what are you mumbling about? Thinking of escaping? Did you ask if I would allow it?" scoffed the Black-cloaked Leader, assuming they wanted to flee.

"Counterattack? Sure, you guys think better, we will follow your plan." Seeing that Du You wasn’t panicking, Fang Shuo calmed himself down. As time went on, the poison within him would gradually reduce.

"The counterattack I am talking about, starts now," Du You’s eyes narrow.

The Black-cloaked Leader had always been keeping an eye on him, holding a scroll, not knowing what purpose it would serve. In the moment of tearing open the scroll, the Leader’s defense disappeared.

In mid-air, Xiaozi, who was ignored until now, finally struck. Nine Thunder Light Orbs formed simultaneously and were shot below. The speed of the Thunder Light Orbs was incredibly fast, dodging was practically impossible.

Sensing danger, the Black-cloaked Leader quickly redirected its scroll attack towards the sky.

An icy chill formed, one after another icy arrow shot towards the sky. As expected, it was another attack targeting them. Knowing their expertise in fire, did they use this icy spell to lower the temperature?

The Thunder Light Orbs clashed with the ice arrows in mid-air, shattering countless ice arrows, yet two orbs still penetrated the magic and hit the Black-cloaked Leader. Three beams of light on the Leader flickered simultaneously, then disappeared.

"Agh!" the Black-cloaked Leader cried out, electricity sparking all over, its exposed face turned black.

"Haha, didn’t expect you had this trick up your sleeve. You hid it well."

"I have even better tricks," Du You replied indifferently. Almost at the instant when Xiaozi took action, Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, with their huge bodies, appeared. The Black-cloaked soldiers closest to them were unlucky.

The gigantic body of Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs landed tangibly beside the soldiers, their ability of energy drain activated. Having been near the limits of their physical strength, the soldiers, having a portion of their strength siphoned off, nearly keeled over.

However, the Demonic Dogs didn’t care about that, their huge claws, enveloped in black flames, viciously swiped over. Within an instance, two black-cloaked soldiers, who failed to evade, were smashed into pulp.

Their strategies were all targeted towards Du You and Fang Shuo, they had not prepared for these giant creatures. Lack of preparation combined with being pushed to their limits made them much more weak and feeble compared to before.

At the same time, Du You also released seven Disintegration Spells. His Disintegration Spells were blocked by the four barriers. Because of their slow moves, three people were hit and turned into shattered pieces on the spot.

The flustered Black-cloaked Leader ripped open another defensive scroll. A dark green barrier protected it. Xiaozi’s Thunder Light Orbs kept falling, causing the barrier to be in constant agitation.

The Blacked-cloaked Leader, who had definitely not expected the situation to turn out , felt like crying but no tears would come out.

"Damn it, you all stop! Or else we, Blood Lotus, won’t let you off."

"What? You are from Blood Lotus, then die!"

Originally taking on a spectator mode, Pang Shuo, his eyes turned completely red as his Dou Qi boiled up.

Fang Shuo began to rotate, bringing along Dou Qi, each round faster than the last. After three continuous rounds, his Dou Qi visibly turned cyan. Like an illusion, he charged into a group of Black-cloaked soldiers.

In an instant, six Black-cloaked soldiers were slashed in half.

"What are you all waiting for? Attack them now, use Blood Thorn."

Hearing the Leader’s command, the Black-cloaked soldiers immediately drew out black daggers and stabbed their own chests. The blood seemed to flow towards the dagger, turning it red.

Then, gripping the red dagger with both hands, they plunged it towards Du You and Fang Shuo. Some of the soldiers at a distance charmed their Blood Thorns and attacked the heavenly creature.

"Watch out," Du You’s eyes narrowed, a circle of purple barrier appeared around him.

Unexpectedly, the attack power of Blood Thorn was too strong, it even pierced Du You’s nearly impregnable Shield Spell. However, while they were able to break through the Shield Spell, the soldiers themselves were blocked by it. They could only watch as the dagger pointed at Du You, unable to advance, their strength depleted, one by one the Black-cloaked soldiers fell.

Fang Shuo, heeding Du You’s warning, calmed down. At this point, he was relatively close to the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. He quickly backed up against the Demonic Dogs while he placed his large broadaxe in front of him.

"Ding ding." Two sharp sounds rang as two daggers got embedded into his broadaxe like nails. If not for the thickness of the axe, they would have gone through. Their piercing power was terrifying, though they lacked significant force.

Most of the other Blood Thorns attacked the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. However, other than having several daggers stuck in its body, the dogs didn’t react as if it wasn’t the one being injured.
