A monster with a very low level like the Desert Scorpion is indeed very weak in strength. Any of the nine monks present can kill one in one move.

But their number is too large. If it flocks to attack in groups, it will be very deadly.

If dozens of scorpions approach the monks and then pounce on them and bite them together, it will be enough to kill any of the nine monks.

Therefore, after entering the scorpion group, the nine people jointly supported a huge shield and wrapped everyone in. The poisonous scorpion's tail needle attack could only shoot on the shield and make a "puff" sound, but could not attack them.

However, to open such a large shield, the spiritual power is consumed. Under Liu Yang's arrangement, the nine people were divided into three groups, each with three people.

The first group was walking in front of the team, specializing in anti-virus scorpions and clearing the way forward. Liu Yang, Yan Nanzheng, and another neutral disciple took on this position.

The second group kept injecting the spiritual power from its body into the defensive shield that followed the team to resist the overwhelming attack of the poisonous scorpion. Bu Zheng was in this group.

Jiang Chen was placed in the third group. The three of them were originally planning to support the first group to kill the scorpion.

But after they walked forward for more than a hundred feet, they soon discovered that when the second group of monks supported the defense shield, the consumption speed of spiritual power was far higher than the first group of monks who were anti-virus scorpions. Therefore, the task of the third group of monks quickly became a take turns supporting the defense shield with the second group of monks.

However, even so, the defensive shield was still a bit dangerous. Under the attack of the poisonous scorpion tail needle, cracks appeared on the shield several times. Fortunately, Bu Zheng and Jiang Chen discovered it in time and barely repaired the cracks.

"No! If this continues, I'm afraid that the defensive magic cover will be broken!" Jiang Chen frowned.

He felt that the spiritual power in his body had dropped a lot, and Bu Zheng and other five disciples were all pale, obviously they were over-explosive.

But half an hour has passed, and they have only reached halfway. Although behind them are scorpions of corpses, they are still more than 500 feet away from the glittering exit.

"Liu Yang, can you kill faster? If this continues, at most, we will be unable to hold on in half an hour... As soon as the shield is broken, thousands of poisonous scorpions are pouring in, and we can all be killed and eliminated in a moment!" Bu Zheng also shouted loudly.

Liu Yang was also sweating profusely at this moment. He waved the sword in his hand and retorted: "Bu Zheng, do you think I don't want to kill faster? Don't forget: these poisonous scorpions are just illusions, not real scorpions, so our Ten Ghost Banners are completely useless, otherwise the scorpions' souls can be included in them and then drive them to attack the living scorpions. How could it be as difficult as they are now?"

Although Liu Yang can kill five or six poisonous scorpions with one sword, it is simply a drop in the bucket compared to thousands of poisonous scorpions.

He also tried all his best, but he was not a sword technique known for group attacks, and there was no large-scale attack move at all.

Of course, it’s not that Liu Yang chose the wrong technique. After all, all the ghost monks use the ghosts in the banner as their large-scale attack method. And as the enemies are constantly killed, their souls will also be included in the banners, and in turn become ghosts that they can drive, and then attack the enemy. This is also the most terrifying thing about the ghost monks.

But helplessly, they were facing the illusion of monsters. Although it was a substantial attack for people in the illusion, Xin Xiang had no soul, and the Ten Ghost Banner could not be included in the banner. Naturally, there was no place to use it.

After hearing this, Bu Zheng was speechless. He also knew that if he changed himself, he would probably not be much better than Liu Yang. If he didn't do it well, it would be worse, because his magic weapon was not as strong as Liu Yang, and his Fu Lu was not as strong as Liu Yang.

At this moment, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and said, "I'll do it! Let me come ahead and open the way and kill these poisonous scorpions!"

He finally decided to take action, otherwise, letting this Liu Yang move forward slowly like a turtle, for fear that everyone will have exhausted all their spiritual power and have not yet reached the exit.

"What? You?" Liu Yang rolled his eyes, looked at the Yanling sword in Jiang Chen's hand, and sneered: "Jiang Chen, don't be too arrogant! Do you think that a Yanling sword can kill faster than me? Although this Yanling sword is the best among the intermediate magic weapons, it is not a high-level magic weapon after all. You know, the Qingming sword in my hand is a high-level flying sword worth tens of thousands of spirit stones! I can kill at least five poisonous scorpions with one sword energy. Can you do it?"

"That's it! Jiang Chen, if it's normal, it's okay to ask you to try it! But now it's about how far you can go in the trial tower, so don't make trouble! Support the defensive shield with peace of mind!" Several neutral disciples also said with a bad expression.

In their opinion, even the senior brothers like Liu Yang who are far superior to other disciples in terms of cultivation, magical powers, magical tools and talismans are only at this speed. Will Jiang Chen be faster than Liu Yang?

Jiang Chen ignored the doubts of these people at this time, but gently pulled out the Yanling sword on his waist, and then a sharp look flashed in his eyes, and the aura on his body suddenly became sharp from plainness.

Although his cultivation level has not changed, everyone present could feel that he is still only at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Stage. But everyone suddenly felt that there was an extremely strong domineering aura surging in Jiang Chen's body.

"Get out of the way!" Jiang Chen shouted sternly at Liu Yang and others in front. His demon sword technique actually contains the magical power of range attack, which can form a fan-shaped sword energy attack on the front, which is most effective for killing such a fragile defense, but a large number of insect monsters.

Liu Yang and Yan Nanzheng had a hint of anger in their eyes, but they did not move.

Another neutral disciple was startled by Jiang Chen's roar and gave up half of his body.

Jiang Chen immediately flew to that position, and the Yanling Knife was raised high, shining with a golden light.

"The first level of the Demon Sword Technique, the demonic flames are surging in the sea!"

"boom!"

A sharp sword aura flew out from the Yanling sword, forming a fan-shaped rushing towards the sea of ​​scorpion in front of the Demon Soul Peak and his group.

The strong spiritual power fluctuations made Liu Yang beside Jiang Chen shocked. Such a powerful sword technique is much more powerful than his ghost flame sword technique.

"Puff, puff, puff!"

The golden sword aura swept over like a whirlwind. Wherever he passed, the desert poisonous scorpions were cut into pieces.

This sword energy extended more than ten feet away before it stopped. Wherever it passed, all the scorpions were killed, and the ground was full of green scorpion body fluids and black scorpion fragments.

Liu Yang, Yan Nanzheng, and the neutral disciples who had just advised Jiang Chen, all opened their mouths in shock when they saw such a spectacular scene in front of them, with an incredible look of surprise in their eyes, and the expression on their faces was extremely wonderful.

The scene in front of them has exceeded their imagination, making them speechless and stunned.

Although the desert poisonous scorpions of first-level monsters are of low strength, such a group of thousands of scorpions is indeed a headache.

Liu Yang thought to himself that if this happens outside, if he sacrifices the Ten Ghost Banner, although he can slaughter a large-scale scorpion group, at most it will be the limit to kill more than ten at one time.

But Jiang Chen, with one sword, cleared out a ten-foot-meter-a-round territory, and there were at least hundreds of poisonous scorpions killed inside. This was much more powerful than him.

"What kind of sword technique is this?" Several disciples were stunned. The power of this sword technique is much stronger than that of ordinary sword technique, and it is a weapon for range attacks.

"The Demon Sword Technique! I got it from the ancestor!" Jiang Chen said lightly.

Although everyone had never practiced the Demon Sword Technique, they had heard of it. They knew that the sword Technique was powerful, but it was very difficult to practice, and they could only practice it to the fourth level.

"Hmph! It's just that he is relying on the magic sword technique to take advantage of the group attacks than ordinary sword techniques!" After a while, Yan Nanzheng whispered, but he didn't dare to say more. He realized that he had been lying on firewood and tasting gall for three years, and attempting to defeat Jiang Chen in a dignified manner, probably it would be impossible.

With the strength Jiang Chen just showed, it can be seen that in the past three years, he has made progress faster than himself and has become more familiar with the mastery of swordsmanship.

If Jiang Chen didn't take action, they would kill one by one like they did just now, it would take at least three hours to pass through the first floor, and maybe they would have broken the defense shield before they could reach the lack of spiritual power.

But Jiang Chen's attack was almost longer than the road they cleared with half an incense stick.

The five neutral disciples' eyes that had looked at Jiang Chen had changed. If they had followed Liu Yang's leader before, Jiang Chen's position in their hearts is undoubtedly in line with Liu Yang.

The reason why they dare not completely favor Jiang Chen is because Liu Yang is the captain appointed by the Demon Soul Ancestor.

However, these five people had already made up their minds. If Liu Yang and Jiang Chen had another impulse later, they would never agree with Liu Yang. It would be better to sit on the wall and watch it without offending any side.

At this time, Bu Zhengfang said in surprise and joy: "How is it? I'll just say Jiang Chen can do it!"

After Liu Yang heard Bu Zheng's words, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. Although Jiang Chen's move allowed his group to pass the first floor as soon as possible, he slapped him in the face in disguise. He proved in disguise that the captain appointed by the ancestor was not as good as Jiang Chen.

He had already felt that the five neutral disciples looked at him with less awe and more coldness.

"Liu Yang! I think I have proved that I will remove these poisonous scorpions, and the speed will be faster!" Jiang Chen said lightly: "For everyone's common interests, I suggest that you and Yan Nanzheng try your best to maintain this defensive shield. I will solve these poisonous scorpions alone in front!"

After hearing this, although everyone felt that Jiang Chen was arrogant, he was very reasonable. So they turned all their eyes to Liu Yang to see how he would answer.
