Chapter 399: Slaying a Three-tier Beast
As the second Spirit Net once again ensnared the Roc Bird, Wang Hong had nearly exhausted all the poison he had at his disposal.
At this moment, he drew a seemingly ordinary wooden arrow, nocked it onto his bow, and aimed it at the Roc Bird.
With a swift motion, the arrow reached the Roc Bird, only to be deflected by its beak, a magical weapon in its own right.
Wang Hong continued to shoot arrows at the Roc Bird one after another, but they were all blocked, unable to harm it in the slightest.
Meanwhile, a large number of demonic birds, poisoned, began to plummet to their deaths.
The remaining Demon Clan attacks intensified, particularly the relentless assaults from the third-tier Demonic Beasts, causing the spiritual light shield on the Flying Boat to dim, as if it could shatter at any moment.
At this point, there were only a little over six hundred second-tier Demonic Beasts and twenty third-tier Demonic Beasts left among the besieging Demonic Beasts. One of the third-tier Demonic Beasts was still caught in a Spirit Net.
The Demon Clan had twice the numbers of the Human Clan, but the Humans had one advantage—they were not poisoned.
In contrast, every member of the Demon Clan had been affected by Wang Hong's Devouring Spirit Poison, and their combat capabilities were gradually diminishing, though they remained unaware of it.
The Roc Bird ensnared by Wang Hong realized that the arrows he shot were only leaving minor dents on its large body, which were akin to scratches for a creature of its size. Eventually, it gave up resisting and paid little attention to Wang Hong's attacks.
It focused solely on using its beak, a magical weapon, to peck through the Spirit Net, hoping to break free as soon as possible.
Being trapped by such a small creature for so long had already damaged its pride. How could it face other birds in the future? How would they look at it?
Unfortunately, due to the effects of the poison, its mind wasn't functioning at its best, and it often injured itself due to imprecise control while pecking at the Spirit Net.
Finally, it managed to create another opening in the Spirit Net. It could now extend its head and neck outside the net.
With newfound freedom, it turned its neck, its eyes glaring menacingly at Wang Hong. It vowed to exact a heavy price, no matter what it took, and reduce this mere ant to a shattered corpse.
Just at that moment, it saw a golden light approaching with great momentum. Due to its slowed reaction time, by the time it realized it, the golden Flying Sword was already close.
Since it hadn't taken Wang Hong's previous attacks seriously, its beak, a magical weapon, was still focused on pecking at the Spirit Net.
Now, it was too late to try to control the magical weapon to block the oncoming Flying Sword. The sword was already aimed at its eye.
There were several close calls where he almost got trapped by a few third-tier Demonic Beasts, but he managed to escape using the shifting positions technique.
While fleeing, Wang Hong released his Poisonous Bees. However, he didn't have them stay close to him for assistance in combat. The Poisonous Bees couldn't keep up with his escape pace.
Instead, he directed the Poisonous Bees to the Flying Boat to help his fellow sect members attack the second-tier Demonic Beasts. With over ten thousand Poisonous Bees attacking simultaneously, no second-tier Demonic Beast could withstand them.
Even as he fled, Wang Hong couldn't stay entirely passive.
Gu Qingyang was relatively lucky, with only one third-tier Demonic Beast as his opponent, and he had a slight advantage in the fight. However, it still wouldn't be easy to slay the opponent.
In a battle between equals, defeating one's opponent was no simple task.
At this moment, Wang Hong used shifting positions and suddenly appeared several yards behind the Demonic Beast. He tossed a few pills toward it and didn't even look at the outcome before using shifting positions again to escape.
The pills he threw were all poison pills, but before they could get close to the Demonic Beast, they were shattered by the intense spiritual energy fluctuations generated by the battle between them.
However, some of the shattered poison pills still drifted toward the Demonic Beast, while the remaining fragments scattered in all directions.
After noticing this situation, Wang Hong dared not casually release more poison pills, fearing he might accidentally harm his fellow sect members.
He once again activated shifting positions to move away. When he reappeared, he landed on the back of a third-tier demonic bird.
This demonic bird was engaged in a fierce battle with a Golden Core Elder from the Qingxu Sect and the two were evenly matched.
Without hesitation, Wang Hong, armed with a Long Spear, thrust it directly into the back of the demonic bird.
After this thrust, Wang Hong immediately used shifting positions to escape to a safe distance, causing the demonic bird to roar furiously.
Seeing the demonic bird distracted, the cultivator fighting it took the opportunity to inflict a grievous wound on the creature.
Wang Hong continued to maintain his high-speed movements, creating trouble for the Demonic Beasts in the ongoing battle as he fled.
