Chapter 739 - 648: The Wolf’s Ambition
Among the five, a middle-aged scholar with a calm demeanor spoke urgently while flying: "Mo Lao, continuing like this is not a solution."
"Our Spiritual Power consumption is too great; why not escape separately?"
He is the strategist of the team, the scholar Fang Yuan.
"No!"
Mo Lao firmly rejected.
"Once we are alone, none of us would possibly escape from the Ironback Bear. Only by working together do we have a slim chance!"
"Then what should we do? Fight them!"
Tieta roared, a hint of fierceness in his eyes.
"Five against two, overwhelming them with numbers, we might stand a chance!"
The last member was a young-looking scholar, fair-skinned, with a scholarly air.
His name was Ning Xiaoqi, just established his Foundation, the youngest in the team, and the weakest in cultivation.
At this moment, two deafening roars came from behind, with a pungent wind blowing toward them.
"We can’t outrun them!"
Mo Lao’s eyes flashed sharply, stopping their Escape Light, shouting: "Tieta, Xiaoqi, you two, spare no cost to block that male bear for ten breaths. Yiyi, Fang Yuan, come with me to first drive off the female bear."
"After ten breaths, regardless of success or failure, you two move toward us."
Tieta’s expression changed.
He glanced at the frail Xiaoqi, then looked at the demon-infested Ironback Bear, gritting his teeth and said: "Fine, ten breaths, just ten breaths. Within ten breaths, finish off that female bear, I’ll go all out."
Mo Lao’s experience was abundant, such a response was understandable.
Ning Xiaoqi’s face was pale, yet he heavily nodded, gripping the fiery red Flying Sword tightly.
He was a Fire Cultivator.
"Do it!"
With Mo Lao’s command, he transformed into a green light, leading Liu Yiyi and Fang Yuan directly at the slightly smaller female bear on the left.
Tieta roared, his muscles knotted, the gold knife emitting dazzling brilliance, charging like a mad tiger toward the more robust male bear on the right.
Ning Xiaoqi followed closely, his Sword Light flickering, trying to contain it.
"Roar!"
The male bear, seeing Tieta actively confronting it, grew angrier, its massive paw stirring a demonic wind, tearing through space, fiercely slamming toward Tieta.
This strike was powerful and heavy, enough to split mountains and crack stones.
"Clang!"
A loud clash of metal resounded.
A tremendous force transmitted from the gold knife.
Tieta’s tiger mouth cracked, the gold knife flew from his hand, his whole body like a broken kite flying backward, heavily crashing into an ancient tree, spitting out a mouthful of Essence Blood.
The male bear, having succeeded in its attack, didn’t pause, its four limbs on the ground, resembling a black meat mountain, rushing toward the injured Tieta with an earth-shaking momentum, its blood-filled mouth already open.
"It’s over, I’m dead this time."
Despair showed in Tieta’s eyes.
Even if he dodged this fatal strike, he couldn’t avoid the subsequent attacks.
These Ironback Bears not only are gigantic and harder than steel.
Their movements are also incredibly agile.
As a Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, it was impossible to escape the Ironback Bear’s chase.
Just then.
"Tieta, move aside!"
A slightly trembling voice rang out.
It was Ning Xiaoqi, supporting the team.
Tieta instinctively rolled aside awkwardly.
Almost at the same time.
A blindingly red light shot out from Xiaoqi’s hand.
As the light extended in the wind, it quickly transformed into a crimson fiery dragon over a meter long, surrounded by crimson clouds, baring its claws and showing its teeth, carrying a massive momentum of burning everything, crashing into the male bear’s back swiftly and forcibly.
"Fire Dragon Talisman?"
A faint hope rose in Tieta’s heart, then sank again.
"Tier Two Middle Grade Fire Talisman, its power is limited, if it can hold for one or two breaths, that’s something."
The ordinary Fire Dragon Talisman had only thirty percent of the power of the gold knife in his hand, not threatening the iron-tough body of the demon bear.
However.
"Boom."
A thunderous explosion suddenly rang out.
The moment the fire dragon collided with the demon bear, it explosively expanded, transforming into a fiery cloud-like crimson Spirit Fire, instantly devouring most of the bear’s body.
"Roar!"
The male bear let out a piercing wail.
The crimson Spirit Fire was clearly not ordinary mortal flame.
Like a haunting bone, it burned wildly.
The Ironback Bear continued to roll and strike, urging its Demon Power, trying to extinguish it.
The crimson Spirit Fire not only scorched its skin and flesh but also seemed to corrode its demonic essence.
The air was suddenly filled with the scent of roasted meat.
The bear let out an angry roar and turned to flee.
On the other side, the female bear fighting with Mo Lao and the other three seemed to receive some kind of call, slapping aside their surround and fleeing toward the male bear.
"Xiaoqi, what kind of talisman did you just use?"
"Was it a Fire Dragon Talisman?"
Ning Xiaoqi’s face was ashen, panting heavily.
Earlier, when he activated the Fire Dragon Talisman, his Dantian’s Spiritual Power was sucked in like waves, startling him.
Activating one Fire Dragon Talisman consumed thirty percent of his Spiritual Power, truly terrifying.
"Where did you buy it?"
Ning Xiaoqi’s slightly youthful face blushed slightly.
This Fire Dragon Talisman was not bought.
It was given to him by the satisfied owner of "Phoenix Perch Pavilion" after his hard work overnight.
At the time, he was somewhat indifferent.
Keeping it in his Storage Pouch, thinking it would cost him nothing.
Earlier, in a critical moment, he remembered the owner’s words.
"This Fire Dragon Talisman contains a trace of Anomalous Fire of the heavens and earth, its power is immense, stronger than premium Talismans. Darling, keep it well, in dire times, it could save your life."
Only then did he hurriedly take it out to activate.
Unexpectedly, the effect was so good.
The Ironback Bear, unable to endure the pain, was burned by the Fire Dragon Talisman to flee, saving everyone.
