Not long after.

Under the relentless attacks of the Demonic Beasts, the Formation’s light curtain dimmed, and the entire Formation range began to shrink slowly.

Clearly, the end was near for the Spiritual Power of the Spirit Stones embedded in the Array Plate.

The ceaseless attacks of the Demonic Beasts meant that the Formation, which could have lasted half an hour, had its Spiritual Power depleted in less than a quarter of an hour.

Seeing this, the Demonic Beasts outside grew even more frenzied, their eyes bloodshot as they continued to assault the Formation.

At this moment, one of the beasts, looking much like a yak, backed away to some distance, stood there with red eyes, pawing the ground incessantly, as if it was gathering strength for a charge.

Given the current strength of the Formation, if it truly charged, the Formation might actually be broken.

“Moo…’

The yak-like Demonic Beast let out a cry to the sky and then thundered forward. Seeing this, the other Demonic Beasts quickly scattered to give it space.

And at that moment, the Black Kite flew high into the sky, ready to launch an attack once the Formation broke.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Jing swiftly replaced the Spirit Stones in his hand, which he had prepared earlier, with five Midium Grade Spirit Stones.

No sooner had the Spirit Stones been replaced than the light curtain of the Formation brightened in an instant and then rapidly expanded outward, just as the yak-like Demonic Beast charged into it. “Bang”

A loud noise reverberated, shaking the very ground.

The collision left only ripples on the light curtain of the Formation without any signs of breaking.

Looking again at the yak-like Demonic Beast, it had rolled its eyes back and collapsed rigidly to the ground after the impact.

The Black Kite, which had just taken to the air, prepared to swoop down. Seeing the miserable state of the yak-like beast, it frantically tried to halt its dive.

However, the Black Kite was moving too quickly to stop and, like the yak-like beast, smashed into the light curtain of the Formation.

It was then repelled a great distance by the light curtain and lay motionless on the ground.

Seeing this, the surrounding Demonic Beasts stood stunned for a moment before scattering in all directions.

For a time, the area was remarkably quiet, with not a single Demonic Beast in sight, and the crisis was temporarily averted.

Yan Xiong looked at the two beasts, not knowing if they were dead or alive, his eyes lighting up as he urged:

“Brother Lin!”

“Quick! ”

“Open the Formation, while these two Demonic Beasts can’t move, let me finish them off with one strike.”

“These two beasts are full of treasures, we could make a fortune if we bring them back.”

As he spoke, he took a Magical Treasure Greatsword out of his Storage Bag and rubbed his hands together, clearly eager.

Lin Jing quickly spoke up, cautioning him:

“Old Yan, be careful. Don’t act recklessly.”

“Haven’t you noticed something off about these Demonic Beasts?”

Yan Xiong scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face as he turned to Lin Jing:

“What’s off about them?”

“Did Brother Lin discover something?”

Ning Yue spoke up to explain at this point:

“These Demonic Beasts, they don’t seem mindless like wild beasts. Be wary of deception.”

“Miss Ning can’t be joking. These are just low-level Demonic Beasts. Isn’t it said that only high-level Demonic Beasts possess intelligence?”

“If even these low-level Demonic Beasts had intelligence, wouldn’t that be a bit exaggerated?”

Though he said this, Yan Xiong still listened to the advice of the two and did not advance any further, instead carefully observing the two unconscious beasts.

Although Yan Xiong was persuaded, there were others in the area who were also tempted.

When the Demonic Beasts first arrived, not everyone fled far away. Some hid nearby,

and with Lin Jing and their Formation present, the Demonic Beasts were all drawn over. Consequently, it became much safer for the others.

As a result…

They had actually bet right.

The Demonic Beasts, seeing their attack on the Formation yield no results, left directly to chase others who were fleeing and did not search the vicinity.

Sure enough, just as Yan Xiong’s words had finished.

A few people emerged from their hiding spots, moving cautiously toward the two Demonic Beasts that looked to be unconscious.

Others were even bolder, leaping out of hiding, they disregarded all risks and dashed toward the fallen Demonic Beasts, hoping to beat everyone else in grabbing them.

Seeing some people act like this, the rest could no longer sit still and hurriedly sped up, running towards the Demonic Beasts while wielding various Magical Treasures and Flying Swords, stabbing at the beasts.

However…

An unexpected change occurred.

The Black Kite that lay motionless on the ground just moments ago suddenly vanished, and then screams were heard, as those Cultivators who had rushed towards the Black Kite instantly fell in droves.

Yan Xiong, who hid within the Formation, was now drenched in cold sweat.

He had not expected the Black Kite to feign death.

The Cultivators who were slightly further away from the scene felt their scalps tingle and hurriedly turned to run.

However, their speed was no match for the Black Kite.

In no time at all, those who had just jumped out were now dead and clean.

After these people died, the Black Kite seemed unsatisfied and continued to charge at them, but this time, it did not crash into the Defensive Array.

Instead, it went straight for the unconscious yak Demonic Beast, then burrowed into its skull through the eyes.

“Moo…”

The yak Demonic Beast was awakened by severe pain but it was already too late, and after jumping and struggling a bit, it fell to the ground with a “boom” and stopped moving.

In a short while, the Black Kite came out again, and in its mouth, it held a Demonic Beast Inner Core.

The Black Kite swallowed the Demonic Beast Inner Core in one gulp.

“Screech… screech…”

Seeming extremely excited, it screeched twice and then turned into a streak of black light and left.

Yan Xiong, who witnessed this scene, was dumbfounded:

“This Black Kite has become enlightened…”

After the Black Kite left, the place finally quieted down completely. However, even so, Lin Jing did not dare to withdraw the Formation, who knew if there were any dangers nearby?

Shortly after the Black Kite departed, a group of people actually flew over the area, making one marvel at their good luck.

However, upon seeing Lin Jing’s Defensive Array, they flew directly towards them.

The group landed and approached.

“Fellow Daoist, please kindly open the Formation and let us in to take shelter for a bit.”

The Red -Robed Cultivator at the front spoke with a smile.

“Please find somewhere else; there’s not enough room here for that many people.”

Lin Jing didn’t hesitate and rejected them outright.

Upon hearing Lin Jing’s refusal, those people were immediately displeased.

“Fellow Daoist, that’s not very considerate of you. There’s so much space inside, why can’t you let us in to hide?”

“We’re all cultivators of the same path, why can’t you let us in for a moment?”

“Exactly!”

“Fellow Daoist, one shouldn’t be so selfish…” After they finished speaking and saw Lin Jing remained unmoved, The Red -Robed Cultivator added another sentence.

“Fellow Daoist, how about this? Let us in and we’ll compensate you, how’s that?”

However, Lin Jing was still unmoved.

“Please bother yourself to find another place; my spot here is too small to accommodate you all.”

When Lin Jing said this, his tone was no longer friendly..
