Chapter 356: Chapter 219: Scattered Escape_1
Cold Ice Canyon.
It had been a day and a half since Lin Xingyou had left.
The Iceflame Lions incessantly rammed against the formation, with one wave following another, almost without respite.
As the strikes accumulated, the spirit stones within the formation depleted rapidly. Whenever the spirit stones were replaced, the formation’s defensive power reached its weakest.
Moreover, the house’s formation had suffered some damage, and it had become unstable.
Within the formation, Lin Tianfeng’s expression was grave; he distinctly felt the defense of the formation weaken.
While enduring the impact from two second-order Iceflame Lions, he began to feel outmatched. With the recent strikes, the formation hovered on the brink of collapse.
As the two Iceflame Lions continued their onslaught without breaking the formation, they became even more frenzied and vicious, putting more force into each consecutive strike.
After several more impacts.
At this point, the two second-order Iceflame Lions shared a glance, seemingly wiser now.
They roared up at the sky, then simultaneously charged in the same direction, followed by a large number of first-order Iceflame Lions.
Seeing this, Lin Tianfeng’s face drastically changed; at this rate, the formation would not be able to withstand many more strikes.
Lin Tianfeng, with a solemn expression, said to the clan members beside him, “This formation might not last much longer. Once it breaks, I will do my best to hold off some of the Iceflame Lions. You all must follow Uncle Xing Luan and immediately escape towards our clan lands. If the family’s reinforcements arrive in time, perhaps you can retreat unharmed!”
Hearing this, and seeing the ferocious Iceflame Lion Tribe outside the formation, many clan members panicked.
They knew the disparity between their own cultivation and the might of the Iceflame Lion Tribe. Once they were outside the protective formation, the demonic beasts would swarm them.
At that time, it would be like lambs entering the tiger’s den.
With these thoughts, the clan members grew pale, and two of them nearly fainted.
Seeing this, Lin Tianfeng bellowed angrily, subduing everyone and restoring a measure of calm.
Lin Xing Luan also spoke up, “Everyone, don’t panic. The situation is critical now; maintain your formation.”
“If the formation breaks, follow me and leave quickly. Don’t stay here and add to Tianfeng’s burden, understand?”
Hearing this, some of the clan members finally faced reality. They each took out their spiritual artifacts, preparing for battle.
Lin Tianfeng nodded, gripping the spirit sword in his hand, holding a large amount of talisman paper, ready to give it his all.
Outside the formation, the two second-order Iceflame Lions collided against it several times, and on the sixth strike, the entire formation shook violently and finally broke.
The moment the formation fell, the Iceflame Lions surged in like a flood.
Lin Tianfeng charged at the oncoming Iceflame Lions, leading the charge.
The situation was urgent; he had to buy time for his clanspeople to escape. Otherwise, how many of them would make it out alive remained uncertain.
Fully aware of this, his every move was a lethal attack. Numerous talisman papers flew from his hand, followed by fierce gusts of sword qi sweeping across.
With his wave-like assault, the two second-order Iceflame Lions dared not get close to the force of his attacks and thought only of evading for the moment.
But the first-order Iceflame Lions struggled to avoid them and were decimated by his ferocious attack, leaving a trail of severed limbs and bodies strewn across the ground.
As Lin Tianfeng held off the lions for a moment, Lin Xing Luan led the clan members past the cleared Spirit Fields, escaping towards Green Bamboo Mountain.
Once Lin Tianfeng’s attack subsided, the herd of first-order Flame Ice Beasts immediately pursued the Qi Refining Stage Clanspeople.
The two second-order Flame Ice Beasts then charged at Lin Tianfeng, quickly pinning him down in a pincer movement.
Lin Tianfeng glanced back at the escaping clanspeople, feeling helpless and praying that his clan would arrive soon to rescue them.
Returning his focus with a grave expression, his own situation was just as dire. If he were delayed for too long, he, too, could perish here.
At that moment, the two second-order Iceflame Lions unleashed a roar and initiated their attack.
Both lions, waving their razor-sharp claws, struck from different directions. If hit, one would likely be severely injured, if not killed.
Lin Tianfeng dared not be careless. His spirit sword swung, releasing bursts of sword qi, and he engaged the two Iceflame Lions in a fierce battle.
For a moment, the canyon was filled with the flash of swords and the roar of explosions.
Lin Tianfeng fought and retreated, struggling valiantly against the encirclement of the two Iceflame Lions.
…
A few miles away, in a hilly region, Lin Xing Luan led dozens of clanspeople over a small hill.
Not far behind them, more than thirty first-order Iceflame Lions caught up, now significantly faster than before.
At this pace, it was feared they wouldn’t make it five miles before being overtaken.
Realizing the impending crisis, the clan members turned very pale.
Seeing the rapidly approaching Iceflame Lions, one clansperson said, “Xing Luan, at this rate, we’re not going to make it. Those beasts are too fast; we can’t possibly escape.”@@novelbin@@
“Yes, we can’t run away now. We have to fight with everything we’ve got and see if we can repel them. Otherwise, if they catch up while we’re running, we’ll die even quicker!” another clansperson added.
Hearing the other clanspeople’s comments, Lin Xing Luan nodded, then steeled his resolve, ready to fight to the death.
Deciding, he said, “Everyone is aware of our current situation. Don’t hold back anything; use all your lifesaving means. Only by surviving can we have the chance for any treasures.”
