The Legend of the Demon Hunter

Chapter 290 Encountering a Tide of Beasts

"Brother Li, you have the strongest perception. Are you sure there are no boundary breakers ahead?" Sun Yi asked, looking at Li Jiufeng beside him.

"Yes, I'm sure. In front of us, there are only three people besides Teng Snake. One of them is a hunter soul. The other two seem to have used a spell to hide their strength. I can't sense their exact strength. They look only at the level of a junior demon hunter. But the hunter soul's perception ability is also very strong. I'm afraid she will sense our presence, so I deliberately keep a distance."

“But what I can be sure of is that among the three people in front, there is definitely no Boundary Breaker. The power of a Boundary Breaker is far different from that of an ordinary demon hunter. I will not be wrong.” Li Jiufeng said.

"Then as you said, even if the other two people with hidden strength are hunting kings, they will not pose much threat to us. With the combat capability of our team, it will be no problem for us to deal with them." Sun Yi said.

"Well, but what is Miss Lan's opinion on this matter?" Li Jiufeng glanced at Lan Jiuyin who was flying side by side not far away, and asked for her opinion. After all, Lan Jiuyin was the direct disciple of the current Pope, and although his strength was only that of a soul hunter, people like them had to take him seriously.

"Everything is subject to Senior Li's instructions." Lan Jiuyin replied calmly.

After getting Lan Jiuyin's answer, Li Jiufeng nodded and said, "In that case, let's chase them! Stop them and snatch the star disk for the Holy Church!"

"Yes!" everyone replied one after another.

Afterwards, three hunting kings and two hunting souls led by Li Jiufeng chased in the direction where Xiao Zhu and others were flying.

……

"Oh no, they are catching up. How can they fly so fast?" Lin Xuemiao said.

"How strong is the opponent?" Furukawa began to prepare for battle.

Lin Xuemiao closed her eyes and said, "They have three hunting kings and two hunting souls. I'm afraid we are no match for them."

Gu Chuan was silent for a moment, and then said, "The only people who have such strength here are probably the people from the Demon Cult. They are so persistent in pursuing us, I think they have discovered the existence of the star disk in your hand."

With Furukawa's wisdom, he guessed the other party's purpose at once, but he frowned tightly. With such a huge gap in strength between the two sides, even he didn't know how to deal with it.

"Axi, is there any way to get rid of them?" Guchuan tried to communicate with Tengshe Axi.

Ah Xi opened her mouth and spoke in human language: "Let me try!"

After saying this, a pair of wings suddenly grew out of thin air on Teng Snake Axi's body. This pair of wings was slightly smaller and was located in front of Teng Snake's main wings, like duck wings.

With the appearance of this pair of wings, Teng Snake was surrounded by surging wind spiritual power. Its speed suddenly increased, and even the surrounding clouds were broken by the power of the wind.

"It's really worthy of being called Teng Snake. It even has the ability to fly in the clouds and mist!" Xiao Zhu saw Teng Snake perform such a magic for the first time and exclaimed in admiration from the bottom of his heart.

"Don't be careless. Our current speed can only keep up with the opponent. Whether we can shake them off depends on what happens next." Furukawa analyzed calmly.

About 5,000 meters behind Xiao Zhu and the others, Li Jiufeng frowned and said, "The other party's speed has increased. They should have noticed that we are tracking them."

Sun Yi nodded and said, "This is not surprising. Teng Snake is a magical beast known for its speed. If it flies at full speed, many hunter kings will be far behind. But fortunately, we have the help of [Wind Spirit Quiet Feather]. If we continue for a long time, the opponent may not be able to be faster than us."

Li Jiufeng nodded and said, "Well, this also indirectly proves that there are no boundary breakers in the other team. Let's chase them at full speed and don't let them get away."

After that, the group stopped talking and turned into a ray of light and chased in the direction where Xiao Zhu and others fled.

Two days later.

"Still can't get rid of them?" Tengshe flew for two days and two nights, but the distance between them and the pursuers behind them did not increase. Xiao Zhu became a little anxious.

"Since they have been able to hold out against us for so long, they must have some magic weapon that can increase their flying speed," Furukawa speculated.

"What should I do?" Xiao Zhu was at a loss.

"We can only keep going and see which side can't hold on first. Axi's spiritual power has been consumed by one third. If we continue flying at full speed, we will probably be forced to land before we get halfway." said Furukawa.

Being forced to land on the Lost Continent where monsters were roaming everywhere was risky, but in order to avoid panic among Xiao Zhu and the others, Gu Chuan did not say much.

At this moment, Lin Xuemiao suddenly noticed something in front of him: "Oh no, there is a large area of ​​chaotic spiritual power in front of us. It seems that thousands of monsters are approaching..."

After hearing Lin Xuemiao's words, Xiao Zhu and Gu Chuan thought of the same thing at the same time, which was one of the disasters of the Lost Continent that Jiang Jin introduced to them in Suzaku Town: the beast tide.

The two looked at each other, and they saw the answer from each other's eyes at the same time, but this answer was the one they least wanted to see.

At this moment, the roar of galloping monsters came from the front. At this moment, Lin Xuemiao also understood that they were indeed encountering a tide of beasts!

With a tide of beasts in front and pursuers from the Demon Cult behind, it was truly a desperate situation. Xiao Zhu felt beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

The group was flying at a very fast speed, and the beast tide in front of them was also approaching them at a very fast speed. When the two factors combined, in almost the blink of an eye, they saw a dark mass in front of them.

The first to rush in front of him was a group of level three magic beasts, Shadow Sculptures. There were several hundred of them, but fortunately they were not very strong, so Xiao Zhu could easily deal with them.

But mixed in with the magic shadow sculptures, there were also some level 4 magical beasts, scavenger vultures. Although their number was small, the physical strength of the level 4 magical beasts was already very strong, which caused a lot of trouble to Xiao Zhu and others.

More importantly, under the impact of the beast tide, everyone's speed slowed down rapidly. They clearly felt that the pursuers behind them were approaching quickly.

At this moment, a powerful breath suddenly came from the beast tide in front. This breath was like a hurricane rushing towards them. Xiao Zhu, Gu Chuan and others felt a stuffy feeling in their chests because of this breath.

"Chirp——" a loud cry pierced the sky, and then a monster that covered the sky and the sun flew over from the sky. As it flew, it cast a huge shadow on the ground, and even the clouds could not cover its body.

This monster has a pair of huge wings, and its body is strangely like a fish, with a fish head and scales.

Even the Teng Snake seemed as small as a child in front of this huge monster.

"This is... it?" Furukawa widened his eyes.
