Chapter 275 Quick, throw the deadly hand!
Below the ditch are sharp plant thorns, like the tip of a sword.
The monsters that were pushed into the ditch were pierced by the sharp spikes, resulting in numerous wounds.
These spikes and sword tips carry a liquid extracted from poisonous spiritual plants. Once a monster is cut, the liquid will enter its bloodstream through the wound and cause infection.
Jiang He specifically chose spiritual plants that could quickly inflict poison. As soon as the monsters fell into the ditch, some of the weaker monsters died on the spot, some fainted, and some monsters were not pierced by the sharp spikes and sword tips, but because they were the first wave to fall into the ditch.
Once someone falls in, the monsters behind that can't brake in time will be pushed into the ditch by the monsters behind them.
Even if the monster at the bottom is unharmed and has room to struggle, it will soon be crushed by the monsters falling from behind, until the ditch is filled with a dense multitude of monsters.
Looking down from above on his sword, Hai Chongkong saw that the monsters at the bottom of the ditch were being crushed. Those without strength could only struggle, but the space was too small, and more and more monsters were falling in. The organs of the monsters at the bottom were being squeezed, causing them to suffocate mechanically.
Most monsters suffer from pressure coming from all directions to their chest and abdomen, causing their lungs to suffocate as they cannot expand.
The slightly stronger monsters climbed up by stepping on the bodies of other monsters.
Provoked, the various monsters launched attacks to varying degrees.
One by one, the demons in the ditch died, and the communicators of the Wanjue Academy cultivators kept notifying them of the points being credited.
"!!! Holy crap, I've already got over a hundred points! Is it possible to earn this many points from the first level of the trap?"
"E and F level monsters will die first. Although it's only one point, every little bit counts. I think the majority of the points in this first level of traps come from D and C level monsters. Don't get too excited yet. Soon, the C level monsters that break through and the B level and above monsters will be on the second level. That's when it will be our turn to appear."
"I'll handle it well. I didn't expect that the first layer of traps alone would kill so many monsters. There are many sharp spikes in this ditch, but they can't actually pierce some of the thick-skinned monsters. However, the 'trampling incident' between the monsters definitely killed quite a few of them."
The cultivators of Wanjue Academy were discussing quietly, their eyes filled with undisguised joy. Anyone who could stand there and collect points effortlessly would be laughing out loud.
These ditches were designed by Jiang He and the students of Wanjue Academy, and Hai Chongkong did not receive any points for the death of the demon.
However, he can get points as long as he puts in the effort during the second and third waves of traps.
One after another, the monsters jumped down in dense numbers until the small group of monsters was no longer so large.
Hai Chongkong watched the endless stream of demons as if he were seeing a swarm of moths drawn to a flame.
The ditch was completely filled with the corpses of monsters. Many of the monsters behind knew something was wrong from the beginning and stopped moving forward, but they were trapped in the monster horde and were mostly pushed into the ditch.
Monster corpses filled the ditches, and many more had been tripped by the demonic vines of the first layer of traps; once tripped, death was almost certain.
With cultivators leading the way, once most of the demons reach the second layer of the trap, a new wave of slaughter awaits them.
"Hurry, hurry, throw it with the deadly hand!"
Zhong Liyu, his face covered, tossed various poison powders and dizziness talismans down with his hands. There weren't many dizziness talismans; they were obtained from the supply point and had a large dizziness range.
Zhong Liyu threw out more homemade poison powder, and as she threw it, it left afterimages.
Hai Chongkong was similar to Zhong Liyu; his golden hair swung from side to side with his movements until he had thrown away all the poison powder in his hand. Only then did he seize the opportunity to throw out the iron chain and harvest a wave of low-level monsters.
Many deadly venoms and powders need to enter the bloodstream to be most effective, and they were used up during the first layer of trap setup.
The second layer of traps mainly consists of poison powder. Whether it's something that runs on the ground or flies in the sky, the large-scale artificial spraying and sprinkling of stun-inducing venom and powder will add a debuff to the monsters, causing them to be stunned and reducing their attack, defense, speed, and other stats.
As the various demons broke through the first level, then the second, and finally staggered to the third, the long-awaited delayed spells finally erupted.
Under the magic staff of the mage, various damaging spells were born. Many of the monsters under the debuff were blown away before they could even react. Various explosions occurred in the mountains and forests, and the commotion was so loud that even the group of Lingqing Academy cultivators located in the mountain forest map could hear it.
"Commander, there seems to be a fight over there. Should we go check it out?"
Kong Ji's fingers were twirling a string of Buddhist prayer beads. He frowned and looked in the direction from which the explosion had come.
"There are many cultivators, and their numbers are considerable. A direct confrontation would be troublesome. Have you heard anything from Liuyun Academy? Have they agreed to cooperate?"
"No, Fei Lian hasn't replied. I don't know if he's busy escaping or if he's dead. If he's dead, only his teammates inside the academy can see the death message. We'll probably have to wait five minutes for the world channel broadcast to check if Fei Lian is dead."
This setup of the Grand Academy Competition has drawn criticism from many cultivators every year, mostly because they find the information gap troublesome.
If the information isn't updated in a timely manner, it's sometimes impossible to judge the timing, and you have to guess.
Upon hearing the news, Kongji's fingers paused slightly, and the sliding beads stopped moving as well.
"Replan the route, and avoid the explosion point if possible."
"Yes, command."
-
"Damn it, these monsters, they all deserve to die!"
Speaking with a thick Northeastern accent, Zhong Liyu drew her sword, and if one strike wasn't enough to kill a demon, she would strike twice.
After repeating this several times, Hai Chongkong actually saw the image of a burly man in Zhong Liyu's face, which was equally captivating as both a man and a woman.
On the left is Zhong Liyu, and on the right is Li Ling, wielding a hammer and smashing heads with each blow. The two of them are unusually in sync.
To be honest, Jiang He's team has all sorts of cultivators.
More than half of the monsters died under the third layer of traps, and the remaining monsters were either at the back or were B-rank or A-rank monsters.
After Hai Chongkong and Lan Mu finished off a monster together, they turned around and witnessed a shocking scene.
Seeing the charging demons, Bai Zhizhou quickly gathered all the cultivators.
The monks took their positions according to the formation.
The A-rank monsters were pulled away by cultivators with high damage resistance, and the monsters ahead were mostly around B and C ranks.
The Nine Sons Linked Formation was formed after each cultivator participating in the formation took their place.
The cultivators took turns arranging themselves, and at the same time, their attack frequencies synchronized.
When danger struck, reinforcements immediately arrived from within the formation. Under the combined attack of all the cultivators, the formation was like an iron barrel, and Hai Chongkong could only watch as wave after wave of demons fell.
After taking a few glances, he knew that this attack could definitely wipe out all monsters below rank B.
The number of monsters capable of breaking through to the third level is much smaller than that of the second level. Hai Chongkong, Zhong Liyu, and Li Lingchao headed towards the direction of A-level monsters.
There were more than twenty A-level demons among them. They couldn't defeat them all by themselves. What Hai Chongkong and the others had to do was to restrain these A-level demons and then come to their aid after Bai Zhizhou led the cultivators to eliminate the low- and mid-level demons.
