The Peerless Tang Sect: Possessing Huo Yuhao at the Start

Chapter 50 Small Beast Tide

"Hmm? A small-scale beast tide?" Huo Zhanji raised his hand and tapped the crystal glass lightly twice. "We're probably in trouble. Don't worry about me, you guys go ahead, I'll cover the rear."

At this moment, a series of silent figures are gathering from all directions toward the mountaintop.

"We're surrounded. They'll be at the top of the mountain in three minutes at most. Be prepared to break out at any time." Huo Zhanji immediately activated his mental detection to investigate their location.

"Huo Zhanji, come on up quickly. Let's go together," Ju Zi called out anxiously.

Huo Zhanji shook his head: "No, they will catch up immediately if I leave. Then none of the three of us will be able to leave. You go first and don't worry about me. I have my own way."

At this moment, Orange's decisiveness was revealed. She quickly closed the two open windows and her six long legs retracted as she rolled down the mountain.

After Ju Zi and Ke Ke left, Huo Zhanji was shocked to see the soul beasts covering the mountains and fields. He roughly estimated that there were at least one or two hundred soul beasts, with the youngest being at least five thousand years old. Huo Zhanji's eyes began to emit a deep red light, filled with a murderous aura.

"Come on!" Huo Zhan charged headlong into the horde of beasts.

Approaching them was a wolf-like spirit beast. It roared and raised its two front paws, its sharp claws like knives, aiming straight for Huo Zhanji.

"Throat-crushing lock, dark gold dinosaur claw!"

Huo Zhanji reached out with his hand, and his five sharp claws grabbed the neck of the charging soul beast. With just a light grab, the soul beast crumbled into pieces like tofu.

"Tianmeng, Bingdi, prepare to receive your gifts!" Huo Zhan shouted urgently.

As for the gifts, they were naturally the spirit rings. Huo Zhanji could now decompose spirit rings to obtain some power, but the effect was definitely not as good as absorbing them. However, it was obviously enough for Huo Zhanji now.

"Sacred Eye—Mystic Ice Holy Spirit Armor! Heavy Particle Form!" In an instant, Huo Zhanji unleashed unparalleled power. His originally ice-blue hair turned a vibrant red, and he exuded an extremely threatening aura. "Chaotic Heaven and Earth!"

At this moment, the world became shrouded in mist, and the vision and perception of those soul beasts were as if they were imprisoned. The soul beasts that were originally running fast could now only move slowly.

Huo Zhanji himself didn't know how long the battle had lasted, only that his soul power was almost gone. By this time, it was already bright daylight, and the mountain where Huo Zhanji was located was covered with the corpses of soul beasts. After the baptism of battle and the continuous absorption of the energy contained in the soul rings, his soul power had increased by two levels.

A strong green light shone from Huo Zhanji's body, and the Eternal Frozen Domain suddenly spread. The extreme cold, carrying the aura of ancient times, swept across the mountaintop in an instant, enveloping all the soul beast corpses. With a snap of Huo Zhanji's fingers, the soul beasts were frozen into ice sculptures and instantly vanished into nothingness.

Huo Zhanji stood on the mountaintop for a while, stunned. "Level 57 is close to level 58. Interesting."

After a while, Huo Zhanji flew towards the outer edge of the branch. Suddenly, a violent roar rang out, causing Huo Zhanji, who had already taken to the air, to stop.

"What's going on? I've already guided all these soul beasts this way, so what about Orange and Coco?"

As Huo Zhanji pondered this, he quickly flew towards the direction where Ju Zi and the others were. Before long, Huo Zhanji saw the all-terrain detection soul tool surrounded by soul beasts. He didn't know what state Ju Zi and Ke Ke were in at the moment.

"The third soul skill of the Double Pupil Martial Soul: Group Weakness."

At this moment, his eyes emitted a strange light, and the rioting soul beasts below were in a daze. Huo Zhanji quickly flew down and cleared away the soul beasts surrounding the detector. Just then, a window of the all-terrain detection soul tool opened, and Ju Zi and Ke Ke climbed out of it in a panic.

Orange shouted, "Huo Zhan, run! Ke Ke has made a self-destruct device using a soul tool!"

Huo Zhanji clearly sensed that terrifying energy was rising wildly within the all-terrain detection soul tool. Without hesitation, Huo Zhanji rushed towards Ju Zi and Ke Ke, grabbing one in each arm and pulling them into his embrace. He then summoned a phantom and activated autopilot to speed away.

At this moment, an unparalleled and terrifying explosion suddenly erupted within the Jingyang Mountains. Huo Zhanji immediately placed Ju Zi and Ke Ke in front of him. Before long, Huo Zhanji felt a scorching heat coming from behind him. The terrifying explosion created by Ke Ke was simply too powerful, almost the same as the corpse explosion caused by the Title Douluo evil soul master that Huo Zhanji had encountered.

Because Keke and Ju Zi did not directly experience the force of the explosion, they clearly saw that the surrounding air became distorted in an instant. However, the real impact fell on Huo Zhanji, who was protecting them. Huo Zhanji was now covered in wounds, with some metal fragments embedded in his body.

"How could this happen? How could this happen..."

Orange snapped, "Shut up. Calm down, you need to calm down now."

"Cough cough, I almost died. I'm fine, I can still hold on. Please take care of these metal fragments on my body." Huo Zhanji's voice rang out.

"it is good."

Ju Zi moved very carefully, gently removing the metal fragments. In no time, she had cleaned up all the smaller fragments. Ju Zi was shocked to find that Huo Zhanji's recovery speed was like that of a monster; his deep wounds healed almost instantly. All the metal fragments on Huo Zhanji's back were removed. After resting for a while, the three of them headed back home, as Huo Zhanji's injuries prevented them from staying any longer.

.........

Xuan Ziwen looked at the three people in front of him. They were fine when they left, but when they came back, one was seriously injured and the other was slightly injured. He didn't know what to say.

Soon, Huo Zhanji was sent to the academy's infirmary. Fan Yu hadn't seen his beloved disciple for some time, and when he saw Huo Zhanji lying on the infirmary bed, he instantly broke down.

"Teacher Fanyu, I'm fine. I just need to rest a bit." Huo Zhanji said.

Ju Zi had treated some of Huo Zhanji's injuries, and now it was just a careful treatment. When Jing Hongchen came to his side, he had to admit that his injuries were very serious. However, seeing Huo Zhanji risking his own safety to protect the students of his academy, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Huo Zhanji.

"Once Huo Zhanji's injuries have healed, let Xuan Ziwen take you to study at Mingde Hall."

"Hmm," Huo Zhan responded quickly.

Jing Hongchen stood up and said, "Alright, then you should take good care of your injuries. I'll have them treat you with the best medicine."

"it is good."

Huo Zhanji nodded respectfully. After his wound was treated, Huo Zhanji was sent to a ward in the infirmary to recuperate. The stinging pain in his back had subsided considerably with the medication, but he was still feeling drowsy.
