Chapter 1781: Chapter 397:
The terrifying force transmitted from the shield, along his arms, into his entire body, and simultaneously into the earth beneath his feet.
The power was so strong that even the ground under his feet couldn’t sustain it, causing cracks to appear, and the ground where he stood began to sink downward.
Linghu Gudu cursed inwardly, not understanding how even a frog could possess such imnse strength!
If he hadn’t been cultivating the Eight Nine Mysterious Art since joining the Hundred Peaks Sect, that one strike alone would have flattened him into the ground, rather than just knocking him down.
Although the attacks of the two Giant Frog Clan mbers were blocked, soon another two leapt from the void, heavily thrusting their steel forks towards the two massive shields below, as if intent on striking down the person beneath them.
The sound of two more massive impacts echoed, and Linghu Gudu once again endured the frightful blows, and this ti, he was truly blasted into the ground.
A horrifying impact ca, forcing him to open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of bright red blood; at the sa ti, his arms, due to constant attacks, beca numb and almost completely lost sensation, hanging limply as another two Giant Frog Clan mbers leapt towards him in the void, steel forks aid at him.
Suddenly, in the next mont, two giant hamrs appeared in front of him, smashing heavily against the steel forks.
The hamrs and forks collided, producing a sound as if boulders from the mountain peak had fallen and crashed onto the hard bluestone.
In the collision, the two Giant Frog Clan mbers’ bodies flew backward, and the figure wielding the giant hamrs, looking sowhat short, also retreated seven steps, each step landing with a thud like a thousand-pound weight hitting the ground, leaving deep footprints with each step.
Bei Yan helped Linghu Gudu block the attacks from the two Giant Frog Clan mbers, shouting angrily, “You idiot, can’t you dodge when you see an attack? Why are you blocking? Have you been influenced by Third Senior Brother?”
Linghu Gudu didn’t have ti to retort to Bei Yan, as the two Giant Frog Clan mbers whose attacks were initially blocked were launching another assault.
He quickly got up from the ground, abandoning the two shields, retreating rapidly backward—did they think he wouldn’t dodge?
He took out the shields not out of ignorance, but to help block for Bei Yan and the others, right?
Among the four of them, there were two won, and these two won were more adept at spells. Qiao Jingyao was fine; her whip technique was reportedly very strong, but she wasn’t a disciple of the Four Treasures Peak, and her master hadn’t taught her the Eight Nine Mysterious Art.
As for Yi Sheng, she was cultivating the Eight Nine Mysterious Art, but she had always relied on her fla. Let her engage in close combat? It would be better to hope Bei Yan grows taller!
If he didn’t block, who would?
Count on short Bei Yan?
Linghu Gudu turned to flee as quickly as he could, but the Giant Frog Clan’s leaping ability was truly terrifying, and with another leap, the two frogs closed in on him from behind.
As the steel forks in their hands were about to strike Linghu Gudu’s back, Li Ke and Qiao Jingyao arrived.
Qiao Jingyao’s long whip coiled around one of the steel forks, giving it a forceful flick; imdiately, the steel fork in the Giant Frog Clan mber’s hand was uncontrollably drawn aside, altering only the descending direction without flinging it away.
She was the only one among the four who hadn’t cultivated the Eight Nine Mysterious Art, and the only one whose strength was inferior to the Giant Frog Clan’s.
She managed to divert the steel fork’s direction with her whip technique.
On the other side, Yi Sheng was already holding a spear, aiming at the direction the steel fork was falling, thrusting the spear fiercely.
Her spear technique wasn’t fancy; it was a straightforward thrust.
Upon contact with the steel fork, the weapon in the Giant Frog Clan’s hand was imdiately uncontrollably raised high to the slanted rear.
Although her cultivation in the Eight Nine Mysterious Art wasn’t as profound as Third Senior Brother’s, she would still practice it whenever she had ti. At least, her physical strength was greater than that of the Giant Frog Clan mber she faced.
During the mont the two won helped him fend off the attacks, Linghu Gudu reached into the Qiankun Bag, pulling out two more shields.
He didn’t have many other items, but shields he had plenty. No disciple from the Four Treasures Peak knew why Linghu Gudu had so many various shields, many of which weren’t even treasures, but rely divine weapons, yet he kept them.
Back then, Bei Yan even sarcastically remarked to Linghu Gudu that keeping so many divine weapons was pointless, but now, Linghu Gudu’s shields finally proved their worth.
Even though Linghu Gudu took out the shields again, their situation remained extrely perilous.
They faced too many Giant Frog Clan mbers.
Fortunately, the White Tiger, upon seeing these Giant Frog Clan mbers, turned and ran towards the distance. Several of the Giant Frog Clan mbers saw this and imdiately six of them chased after the White Tiger.
The remaining Giant Frog Clan mbers continued their siege upon the four.
“Bang…”
Suddenly, a loud noise echoed. After Linghu Gudu helped the two won behind him block several Giant Frog Clan attacks, his left arm finally couldn’t hold on any longer, enduring excruciating pain as the shield fell to the ground.
Imdiately, a steel fork from a Giant Frog Clan mber ca crashing down, heavily piercing into Linghu Gudu’s arm.
In an instant, a deep gash was cut across Linghu Gudu’s entire left arm, so deep the pale bone was visible.
Simultaneously, his other arm felt a wave of numbness, and the other shield in his hand also fell.
The reason they could hold on this long was thanks to Linghu Gudu’s shields blocking the attacks of the Giant Frog Clan, allowing Qiao Jingyao and Yi Sheng to continually assault the Giant Frog Clan from behind. But now, with Linghu Gudu injured, the three of them were exposed beneath the enemies’ gaze.
anwhile, Bei Yan, surrounded alone by multiple Giant Frog Clan mbers, could barely protect himself, let alone spare any effort to rescue Yi Sheng and the other two.
