Chapter 241 Li Ling's Willful Ways
Chapter 241 Li Ling's Willful Ways
The dark aura emanating from Li Ling was impossible to conceal, even without anyone else's words.
The people in the desert also knew that this was the aura of a demonic cultivator.
As Li Ling emitted the aura of a demonic cultivator, many cultivators' expressions changed slightly:
"Is Li Ling a demonic cultivator? I don't think I've ever heard of him."
"So, does our academy now accept demonic cultivators?"
"Li Ling is actually a demonic cultivator. I had no idea."
Some people were puzzled, some were curious, but Jiang He, Shangguan Linghu and others did not speak, and many people in the group did not openly show their rejection of demonic cultivators, but they were still somewhat displeased.
This is a demonic cultivator. Perhaps due to the influence of past beliefs, spiritual cultivators generally have a bad impression of demonic cultivators, especially after Li Ling pulled such a stunt just now, which has caused their goodwill towards demonic cultivators to plummet.
Shangguan Linghu kept pulling at the golden-yellow killer scorpion's wounds.
Seeing this, Li Ling attacked.
After losing her hammer, she didn't bother to hide it and directly disobeyed Jiang He's orders, starting to fight alone.
Helian Fenghua stood at the back, staff in hand, full of resentment. No, how did such a demonic cultivator infiltrate Jiang He's team, and one who doesn't obey orders at all?
Shangguan Linghu could still tolerate it, but Zhong Liyu, standing next to Jiang He, was no longer willing to tolerate it at all.
"Li Ling, what's wrong with you? Why are you ignoring orders and attacking the Scorpion? You've gone mad."
"Leave me alone."
After saying this, Li Ling remained obstinate.
If Zhong Liyu hadn't been so rational, he would have wanted to arrest Li Ling on the spot.
The two usually disagree, but Li Ling is extremely obedient to Jiang He, calling him "Big Boss" all the time. Why did he suddenly change his attitude when they were fighting?
Zhong Liyu was puzzled. He was about to say something when Jiang He's side kept issuing instructions, leaving him little time to think about anything else.
The rest of the people were busy fighting the killer scorpion, and Li Ling's figure stood out from the crowd, but most of the cultivators still focused their attention on the killer scorpion.
The nineteen people fought a difficult battle until another magic array was deployed.
Bai Zhizhou, with his glasses raised, continuously wrote various magic array patterns on the ground with the cinnabar he had brought in.
One after another, magic arrays appeared.
The magic circle had a coercive effect, directly imprisoning the two killer scorpions.
As the golden-yellow killer scorpions on the ground were trapped by the magic array, the location of the killer scorpions underground was revealed. From the cultivators' perspective, there was a killer scorpion trapped and unable to move right at the foot of Shangguan Linghu.
The brownish-yellow killer scorpion was underground, but with the magic circle of the White Continent activated, its location could be determined:
"Thirty seconds."
As soon as Bai Zhizhou finished speaking, everyone mustered all their strength and began to attack.
The magic circle lasted for thirty seconds, a length of time that Shangguan Linghu found somewhat unbelievable.
Only intermediate or higher-level talismans can immobilize A-rank monsters, and even then, they cannot be immobilized for long. However, Bai Zhizhou's attack lasted at least thirty seconds. His mastery of formations is truly divine.
Taking advantage of these thirty seconds, the team split into two squads to attack. Regardless of their current position, all the cultivators unleashed attacks that could maximize their damage output within those thirty seconds.
Jiang He gripped the earth-elemental staff, and suddenly, the soil gathered around the yellowish-brown killer scorpion abruptly contracted.
The killer scorpion has a tough exoskeleton, making it impossible for ordinary spells to damage its internal organs. It has two eyes on the top of its head and two to five eyes on the front corners of its head. The killer scorpion has poor vision and generally relies on its antennae to sense its prey.
And at this moment, destroying the killer scorpion's tentacles and eyes is just right.
Metallic elements appeared underground. Jiang He gripped her staff and used the soil to propel the metal forward, instantly dislodging the killer scorpion's tentacles.
After Jiang He began her attack, the killer scorpion felt a sharp pain, which caused it to break free of control prematurely.
"Pay attention to the location, spread outwards."
As soon as Jiang He spoke, those who were supposed to stay away from the Killer Scorpion did so.
Jiang He put away her staff and used her sword to cleave the ground.
The desert is never short of sand. Jiang He's sword was covered in sand, and the tip of the sword was connected to one of the killer scorpion's eyes. Through the connection between the sword and the eye, Jiang He used his backhand to plunge the sword deeper.
The scorpion's exoskeleton is difficult to break through, but it is relatively easy to penetrate through its soft parts.
Shangguan Linghu couldn't tell what material Jiang He's sword was made of. She only felt that the deep black sword contained a red light, making it look like it was forged from an extraordinary material.
Before she could think too much, the brownish-yellow scorpion on the ground, in pain, flew out of the ground and crashed into Shangguan Linghu.
The brownish-yellow scorpion had just failed to attack the healer and the others, but now it was unleashing a barrage of attacks on Shangguan Linghu. No matter how the others attacked the killer scorpion, they couldn't stop the damage.
The other golden killer scorpion, which was not seriously injured, also began to attack Shangguan Linghu.
Shangguan Linghu suddenly had to face two killer scorpions, and the pressure increased dramatically.
Li Ling still ignored everyone else, giving them a disapproving look:
"Your spiritual practices are nothing special, you might as well watch mine."
"Li Ling, what did you eat today? You smell like a firecracker, full of gunpowder..."
"Don't worry about her for now," Jiang He said, and Zhong Liyu finally stopped complaining.
Zhong Liyu looked at the abnormal Li Ling. It was already difficult to fight, and Li Ling was still disrupting their formation. He was really speechless.
The other cultivators didn't expect Li Ling in Jiang He's team to be so difficult to get along with. Fortunately, Jiang He commanded well, otherwise they might have really been thrown off balance by Li Ling.
Li Ling retrieved the hammer that the killer scorpion had thrown into the sand, and she raised the hammer and swung it hard at the brownish-yellow killer scorpion whose eye had been injured.
"Everyone, use your control spells! Sword cultivators, go and lure the golden killer scorpions! Melee mages, coordinate with Li Ling!" Jiang He and Li Ling charged out from the left and right.
Upon hearing that they also had to cooperate with Li Ling, the cultivators present were somewhat unwilling, especially Helian Fenghua. She pouted and moved closer to the brownish-yellow killer scorpion for the sake of the overall situation.
Currently, Shangguan Linghu has managed to draw the attention of both scorpions, and she is using all her strength to repeatedly escape from the stings of the murderous scorpions.
The moment Li Ling approached the brownish-yellow killer scorpion, Bai Zhizhou once again activated the formation.
The brownish-yellow scorpion paused, and Li Ling raised a hammer downwards with one hand, while a black magic circle appeared on the other.
The physical attack followed by the magical attack slammed the killer scorpion to the ground, creating a deep dent in the flesh where the hammer struck, and shattering the scorpion's shell.
Jiang He followed up with Li Ling's attack, and sparks appeared on the Xuan Tie sword.
The desert has a high temperature and is rich in fire element.
The quenched sword pierced through the scorpion's concave flesh, heading straight for its internal organs!
