Chapter 63: Qin Yi's Battle Factor

The first one to catch up was the three-eyed wolf demon, without any hesitation.

The other several Great Monsters hesitated as they looked at the peach, then glanced at the chaotic battle scene. In the end, they chose to chase after the people first.

As a witchcraft that affects the mind, the peach has a dual effect. First, it makes all affected monsters believe that it is a Saint Grade item that can directly break through and advance. This leads to killing and fighting over it. However, if that was the only effect, it might not trigger a chaotic battle. It could potentially lead to forming factions and power struggles, or even cause them to see the carnage and have second thoughts.

Therefore, this witchcraft has another layer of effect, which is to trigger the natural bloodthirsty desire in the hearts of monsters. They become filled with ferocity, losing their calm judgment and rationality, only wanting to kill and vent their anger by tearing apart everything in front of them.

These monsters that caught up belong to the category that still has some basic rationality. They know that the chaotic battle here is not so easily resolved, but there are two escaped targets over there that they can tear apart before coming back.

In fact, they already belong to the category of low intelligence. However, compared to their kind who kill without any judgment when they are bloodthirsty, the fact that they can retain this bit of basic thinking ability proves that their strength surpasses their peers.

A strange light shot out from the eyes of the three-eyed wolf demon's forehead. It passed through the rock where Qin Yi was hiding before, silently turning the rock into powder. The strange light continued unhindered, exploding on the formation set up by Qin Yi, destroying the formation.

The wolf demon followed the light and directly passed through the formation, chasing after Qin Yi. Three to five Great Monsters followed behind, roaring madly.

"Brother, why are they chasing us?" Ye Ling was on the verge of tears. "We didn't do anything!"

Qin Yi pretended not to hear and urgently sought a countermeasure in his mind.

Engaging in a direct fight with these Great Monsters would definitely be impossible to win, but these monsters who have lost their minds clearly have room for outsmarting...

He turned his head and looked at the rapidly approaching wolf demon, whispering, "Ye Ling, are you confident in outrunning them?"

"That wolf is powerful, maybe evenly matched, but it can't fly as fast as me!" Ye Ling was very confident when it came to escaping. "Those few behind definitely can't catch up to me!"

"Alright then, I'll go provoke this wolf first. You go around from the side and provoke the ones behind. But don't get entangled with them, lead them in circles."

"You..." Ye Ling hesitated as she looked at him. "You can't defeat that wolf."

"If I tell you to go, then go." Qin Yi abruptly stopped, separating himself from the sprinting Ye Ling by more than ten zhang. He directly leaped into the air and swung his staff towards the three-eyed wolf demon.

The wolf demon's originally somewhat calm eyes instantly turned into furious blood-red. Its mouth opened, and a rotating wind ball shot up, directly aiming for Qin Yi's head. Qin Yi swept his staff, dispersing the wind ball. He landed on the ground and took a half step back.

On the other side, Ye Ling maneuvered around the battlefield and rushed to intercept the Great Monsters from behind. She crossed her arms and taunted, "A bunch of idiots, hehehe~"

"Roar!" All their eyes turned blood-red, and they pounced towards Ye Ling.

Ye Ling turned around and ran, stealing a glance at Qin Yi's battle situation. There was a hint of worry on her little face.

Liu Su was saying to Qin Yi, "Your decision to split up seems reasonable, avoiding the situation of being surrounded. However, have you considered that Ye Ling might not come back after leaving, and then those monsters will turn back, leaving you with nowhere to escape?"

Qin Yi replied briefly, "If you always question the defenses of your companions, you won't be able to live your life."

Liu Su fell silent for a moment and sighed, "You haven't experienced betrayal... I hope you haven't misjudged this time."

Qin Yi already felt that Liu Su didn't seem like a spiritual artifact anymore. It was very likely that it was the remnant soul of a powerful being, helplessly residing in the staff. He didn't know why it ended up in this situation, trapped in the staff and isolated in the peculiar space of Xianji Mountain. Perhaps it had encountered unimaginable betrayal.

But now was not the time to delve into the root of the matter.

"Boom!" The wolf tooth staff collided with the wolf claw, producing a muffled sound. The clash of their powers caused energy to scatter, and the sand and stones around them flew up into the air.

Qin Yi felt a surge of tremendous force, causing his hand to go numb. His blood and qi surged within him, and he had to retreat several steps before stabilizing himself. The wolf demon didn't gain much either. Its claw was dripping with blood, pierced by the sharp teeth of the wolf tooth staff. Along with the pain, a strange power entered its bloodstream, stirring up its boiling blood as if it was about to ignite.

It angrily howled towards the sky, and in an instant, sand and stones flew, hitting Qin Yi all over his body.

"What... is this wolf tooth staff?" The wolf demon spoke hesitantly in human language.

Qin Yi had no idea what this thing was made of, and Liu Su hadn't mentioned it either. In any case, the material was definitely of high quality, and he couldn't even bring out one-thousandth of its potential. He didn't answer, taking advantage of the fact that he noticed something off about the demonic wolf's blood and qi, he charged forward again, sweeping his staff across its waist.

The demonic wolf dodged, causing the staff to swing empty. However, Qin Yi didn't waste any strength. He immediately countered and swept at its abdomen.

The techniques of the Martial Dao, the experiences accumulated by generations of martial artists, were the biggest difference between them and the demonic beasts that only knew how to unleash brute force.

Qin Yi knew that he couldn't compare to this wolf demon in terms of cultivation, with a significant difference in strength and speed. However, he never thought that he would lose!

"Bang!" The wolf fang staff clashed with the wolf claw once again. True Qi surged and the physical strength converged, releasing a burst of power that was more than twice as strong as the previous strike. The demonic wolf, who hastily blocked with its claws, was sent flying and crashed heavily into the mountain wall, creating a deep indentation.

Qin Yi didn't approach again. He still remembered the three-eyed strange light of the wolf demon. It would be suicidal to charge in like that.

So he quickly formed a thunder net at the entrance of the cave.

Sure enough, a strange light shot out from the hole where the wolf demon had fallen into. Qin Yi was prepared and swiftly moved to the side of the hole, raising the wolf fang staff in anticipation.

In the next moment, the wolf demon charged out along with the light, immediately getting caught in the electric net. At the same time, the wolf fang staff, carrying the prepared force of a thousand catties, came crashing down!

The wolf demon let out a roar. The thunder net that could electrocute vultures to death had no effect on it at all. At the same time, it dragged its claw and pressed it against the wolf fang staff.

The spikes once again caused it to howl in pain. Its arm bent, and the wolf fang staff was barely blocked above its forehead, causing its body to be pressed down slightly by the strike.

Looking at the wolf fang staff that was within reach, as well as Qin Yi's face behind it, the third eye of the wolf demon once again emitted a strange light. At such a close distance, it didn't believe that Qin Yi could dodge!

Suddenly, a sharp force emanated from the wolf fang staff, piercing straight into its soul!

It felt as if a thorn had directly stabbed into its soul, wildly stirring it up, causing its already chaotic soul to shatter into pieces.

It was Liu Su's soul attack!

Qin Yi, who held the wolf fang staff, was never alone!

"Roar!" The wolf demon howled in pain, bursting out with its last bit of strength, kicking Qin Yi.

Qin Yi spurted blood and flew more than ten zhang away, crashing heavily onto the mountain ground.

Looking up, the wolf demon no longer knew anything. It held its head in agony, its energy running amok. The third eye emitted chaotic lights, causing explosions everywhere. The nearby rocks were shattered, and the slopes of the hills were filled with craters.

In its chaotic mind, it couldn't understand why a human who was clearly much weaker than itself could torment it to such a miserable state.

Qin Yi didn't approach. He quietly adjusted his injuries, carefully avoiding the chaotic lights, and coldly watched the wolf demon go crazy.

Until the madness subsided slightly and its energy was depleted, Qin Yi swung his arm, and the wolf fang staff whistled as it heavily struck the third eye on the wolf demon's forehead.

The wolf demon fell backward, and Qin Yi once again spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling somewhat exhausted as he gasped for breath.

This battle was short but extremely intense, almost exhausting all of his strength. Just being kicked once made his body feel like it was falling apart. There were deep wounds left by the wolf claws on his abdomen, and blood was flowing out.

But as he looked at the motionless wolf corpse in the distance, Qin Yi also felt a sense of pride in his heart.

This was a challenge beyond his level... Although he was bullying someone with a lower intelligence, the collision of power and the intense confrontation made his blood boil. Even though his body was tired, his spirit was extremely excited.

Perhaps he wasn't really a calm person... The adventurous and thrilling factor hidden deep within his heart was awakening more and more, becoming more and more turbulent.

Or maybe these two things weren't really conflicting?

He didn't think too much about it. He approached and picked up the wolf fang staff, swiftly chasing after Ye Ling's direction.
