Once they left the cave, spiritual aura and other messy auras rushed toward them.
Mo Tiange looked around.
She was surrounded by overgrown weeds and tangled vines. The air was filled with miasma and the sky was dim.
This Carefree Valley didn't seem special, but the messy auras made everyone frown.
For cultivators, miasma was only a bit troublesome because they needed to protect their bodies with spiritual aura at all times.
The worst thing was that it was mixed with filthy aura.
Filthy aura was a kind of special aura that existed in the cultivation world.
No one knew how it was produced, but this kind of filthy aura could indeed be found in some places.
It could erode magic weapons and bodies, deprive magic weapons of spiritual aura, and cause living things to lose their vitality and die. The meaning of its existence seemed to be destruction.
Cultivators in this world all avoided it like snakes and scorpions, whether they were Taoist or Buddhist cultivators, Confucian or Devil cultivators.
However, the spiritual aura in this Carefree Valley was indeed very rich.
Mo Tiange sensed her surroundings and thought to herself. This place was called a paradise in ancient times, and it really wasn't just for show. If it weren't for the devil aura, miasma, and filthy aura, the spiritual aura here would be denser than the spiritual aura inside her Virtual Sky World.
Unfortunately, for the cultivators of today, it was impossible for them to expel the chaotic Qi outside. They could only absorb the Spiritual Qi in this place. Thus, this paradise could only become a dangerous place.
"Everyone …" Ling Yunhe was about to speak, but he suddenly frowned. The crescent-shaped jade knife appeared in his hand, and he made a defensive posture.
At that moment, everyone except Ling Yunfei was on high alert.
"Huh?" Ling Yunfei stared at them blankly, somewhat at a loss.
"There's a change in the situation!" Ling Yunhe shouted and waved the jade knife in his hand, which shone like a silver moon.
After Ling Yunhe finished speaking, Ling Yunfei finally realized that something was surging towards them like a tidal wave.
He hurriedly shook his sleeves, and two flying swords, one big and one small, flew out of his body.
Mo Tiange's frown deepened. Among the six people, her divine sense was the most powerful. Although it was suppressed by the restrictions here, she could still clearly sense the situation around her.
The thing that was rushing towards them was definitely not an ordinary spiritual object. It carried a heavy aura of filth. What kind of strange thing was that?
The Filthy Qi was meant for destruction. If it was a living creature, how could it still be alive after being infected by it?
Soon, more and more people in the group of six had their expressions change.
They were all outstanding Core Formation cultivators. Even if their divine senses were a bit inferior to Mo Tiange's, it wouldn't be by much.
"Fellow Daoists!"
Ling Yunhe cast a meaningful glance at Mo Tiange and said, "It seems the situation in Carefree Valley has changed. Everyone should be careful!"
There was no need for him to remind them. Everyone was ready to fight.
Among them, which one of them hadn't experienced countless hardships and dangers?
Even Ling Yunfei, who looked the most immature, had a solemn expression on his face at this moment. Two flying swords circled around his body as a precaution.
As those things came closer and closer, everyone's expressions became more and more serious. They had already discovered that there were definitely over a hundred monsters rushing towards them, and each of them had strength exceeding Stage 4.
With a buzzing sound, the jade knife in Ling Yunhe's hand flew up first and fiercely slashed at the grass.
"Meow!" A huge lynx rolled to the side with blood oozing out of its lower abdomen and cried out in pain.
"Meow! Meow!" Immediately afterward, many lynx leaped over the grass and rushed towards them.
"These are monsters!"
Yang Chengji shouted. He spread his arm and a black banner appeared in his hand. The banner was embroidered with a ferocious ferocious ghost baring its fangs.
This banner was surging with devil aura, so it should be his natal magic weapon.
The other people also noticed that these lynx's eyes were red and glowing, and their bodies were shrouded in black aura. They looked very frightening. Obviously, they weren't ordinary spiritual objects, nor were they monsters. They were mutated monsters.
"Brother Tian, retreat! Yunfei, stay in the middle and coordinate. Fellow Daoist Yang, Fellow Daoist Qin, and Fellow Daoist Tiancan, each of us will take a direction!" Ling Yunhe immediately made a decision.
The other five people didn't hesitate and immediately stood in the positions he said.
Although Tian Zhiqian was in the middle stage of the Core Formation realm, he was a cultivator from Five Elements Valley and could be considered a formation master, so he was a bit weaker than ordinary cultivators in fights of magical powers.
As for Ling Yunfei, he was the most immature among the people present and wasn't as steady as the other three.
Letting the two of them stand in the back was indeed a more appropriate arrangement.
However, Mo Tiange couldn't help but think that among the five people, Tian Zhiqian and Ling Yunfei were Ling Yunhe's good friends and younger brothers. Letting them stand in the middle, could it be considered that he was deliberately holding back his strength in case they turned against each other?
If so, Ling Yunhe could be considered cunning. If not, why did he choose Tian Zhiqian, a formation master, and Ling Yunfei, a somewhat immature brother, as helpers while inviting Yang Chengji, Tiancan, and her, three people who were both good at fighting and decisive, to go with him? Wasn't he afraid that they would be at a disadvantage if they turned against each other?
In her opinion, Tian Zhiqian definitely couldn't defeat her or Tiancan, and Ling Yunfei and Yang Chengji were also incomparable.
Mo Tiange couldn't think of an answer to this question, so she shook her head and threw it to the back of her mind, focusing on fighting the enemies.
After taking their positions, the six people began to kill the hundreds of demon cats surging towards them in an orderly manner.
After Ling Yunhe's crescent moon jade knife left his hand, it flew up and down. Under his control, it immediately opened a bloody path in the crowd of demon cats.
But when these demon cats smelled the blood, they became even more excited and pounced on Mo Tiange as if they didn't care about their lives.
Mo Tiange frowned. Instead of taking out her Heaven and Earth Fan, she took out Lord Daoist Jinghe's magic weapon, the flying sword, and also controlled the flying sword to kill the demon cats.
As soon as Yang Chengji unfolded his Ghost Face Banner, he heard what seemed to be the screams of ferocious ghosts. His devil aura swept towards the demon cats. Whenever his devil aura touched a demon cat, it immediately let out a sharp cry. Soon, they stopped breathing as if their vitality had been sucked out.
Tiancan held a claw in each of his hands. Whenever a demon cat approached him, it would be cut down by his sharp claws.
Of the two flying swords beside Ling Yunfei, the smaller one kept circling him, while the bigger one flew out from time to time to kill several demon cats.
Only Tian Zhiqian held a jade plate in his hand, paying attention to the battle in front of him.
Mo Tiange glanced at the jade plate and saw the Five Elements, Yin, Yang, and Eight Trigrams carved on it. It seemed to be a magic weapon related to formations.
The cultivation levels of these demon cats weren't high, but they weren't low either.
On average, they were a bit stronger than fourth rank demonic beasts but a bit weaker than fifth rank demonic beasts. Occasionally, a few demon cats appeared. Although they were comparable to fifth rank demonic beasts, they were all experienced Core Formation cultivators, so they couldn't pose a threat and were quickly killed.
Soon, more than half of the hundreds of demon cats were dead or injured, and the smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger.
Ling Yunhe felt something was wrong, so he frowned and pondered.
All of a sudden, he thought of something. He immediately withdrew the crescent moon jade knife, took out the Soul-Restraining Bead from his robe, and shouted, "Yunfei, go!
Everyone, be careful! After these demons die, the filthy aura will drift away, and the filthy aura around us is getting thicker and thicker! "
Everyone was shocked to hear that. After sensing for a while, they realized what Ling Yunhe said was right. The filthy aura had almost surrounded them!
"Second Brother, what should we do?" Ling Yunfei took over Ling Yunhe's position and blocked one direction, while Ling Yunhe retreated to the center.
"We'll fight and retreat at the same time."
Ling Yunhe said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, you and Yunfei will lead Brother Tian and lead the way. Fellow Daoist Tian Can, Fellow Daoist Yang, please bring up the rear.
I'll be in the middle of you and use the Soul-Restraining Bead to restrain the aura and restrictions around us. "
The other five people didn't say anything. They quickly adjusted their positions and did as Ling Yunhe said.
Although there were many demon cats, they weren't difficult to deal with. The worst thing was that after they killed the demon cats, the filthy aura on their bodies would spread out and surround them.
Therefore, everyone quickly judged the situation. They couldn't kill the demon cats, so they could only repel them.
This brought about some difficulties in carrying out their plan.
After these demon cats smelled the smell of blood, they became extremely ferocious and charged forward without any regard for their lives. Although they were slightly weaker, they were in groups. They couldn't kill them, but they had to block them all. It was really difficult.
The one who felt the most constrained was Tian Can. He was a martial cultivator, and every move he made seemed to be fatal. Facing this situation, he could only block them with his aura.
Ling Yunhe saw through him. He sighed and said, "Brother Tian, I'll have to trouble you."
Tian Zhiqian chuckled. "Since I'm here, how can I do nothing?"
He walked to the center, raised the Jade Plate in his hand, made a hand seal, and shouted softly. A stream of spiritual aura was injected into the Jade Plate. The Jade Plate shone brightly, and the Five Elements, Yin, Yang, and Eight Trigrams on it began to operate.
Mo Tiange's eyes brightened.
She could be considered half a Formation Master, so she could see Tian Zhiqian was laying a formation.
However, his method of laying a formation was different from those that required the assistance of formation discs, formation flags, and spirit stones. It was based on the changes of the Five Elements, Yin, and Yang around him. He used his own spiritual aura to create restraints to achieve the effect of a formation.
It could be called a formation, but it was actually invisible. It couldn't be called a formation, but it could indeed achieve the effect of a formation. Therefore, Formation Masters called it Invisible Formation.
Invisible Formations couldn't be compared to some big formations. They couldn't achieve the effect of controlling the enemy, but they were more flexible. As long as they had a Formation Plate, a Formation Master could lay a formation at any time to form restraints.
Being able to lay an Invisible Formation was a sign of a Formation Master. Mo Tiange believed her formation skills weren't inferior to most Formation Masters, but she still couldn't lay an Invisible Formation.
In the end, her focus was still on cultivation. Although she had a lot of knowledge about formations, compared to specialized Formation Masters, her formation techniques were still a bit inferior.
This Tian Zhiqian came from the Five Elements Valley and was already in the middle stage of the Core Formation realm. His fighting skills were very ordinary. It seemed all his skills were on formations.
After realizing this, Mo Tiange realized Ling Yunhe wasn't careless in asking Tian Zhiqian to go with them.
With Tian Zhiqian's Invisible Formation, even if Ling Yunfei was a bit inferior, the strength of the three of them together was not inferior to her, Tiancan, and Yang Chengji.
In the end, the Formation Plate emitted a dazzling white light. Tian Zhiqian shouted, "Go!"
The moment he spoke, Mo Tiange sensed the spiritual aura in her surroundings stabilizing. An invisible defensive formation enveloped the six of them. Those cat demons suddenly felt as if they had run into an invisible wall. With one pounce, they were all sent flying.
"This way!" Ling Yunhe raised the Soul-Restraining Bead and pointed in a direction.
The six of them didn't stop and flew away.
