Tang San and Dai Mubai looked towards the source of the sound at the same time.

It’s a pity that the Xingdou Great Forest is full of towering ancient trees and lush vegetation. The three of them could only see the grass in the distance shaking violently, and nothing else.

Dai Mubai frowned, and a trace of solemnity flashed across his eyes.

He is the eldest brother, and he has to stand up and take some responsibility at critical moments.

"You two stay here and watch them. I'll go check it out."

A tiger roared, and the spirit possession was completed in an instant. The tall shadow turned its head to look at Tang Wuyou and Tang San, and its voice was like a rumbling bell.

"And Zhuqing... help me——"

After a slight hesitation, Dai Mubai still said these slightly corny words.

But before he could finish, the shadow of a strange creature loomed over him and fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

The three of them were startled, and Tang San's Blue Silver Grass shot out violently, wrapping around Tang Wuyou's waist in an instant, suddenly pulling her out of the shadow and holding her in his arms.

Dai Mubai pointed his toes and his body instantly appeared three meters away, staring at the strange creature in front of him with a frown.

I saw that this creature was covered in bloodstains, had five claws, a protruding mouth, three rows of fangs, a long tail covered with scales, and there seemed to be something like a flower bud at the top that kept opening and closing.

There was blood all over the floor, and it was obvious that this thing was about to die.

When he was wondering, a roar similar to that of a bear suddenly came from not far away.

The next moment, Zhao Wuji's four-meter-tall body slowly descended in front of everyone.

Dai Mubai breathed a sigh of relief, took a few steps forward, and asked softly

"Teacher Zhao, where have you been? What is this? And Zhuqing and the others..."

Zhao Wuji's whole body was shining brightly, and his tall body gradually shrank to its original size. He glanced around and found the unconscious people tied tightly to the tree by the blue silver grass. The solemnity in his eyes suddenly relaxed, and he smiled with relief.

"I didn't expect you to have such reaction ability, very good."

Tang Wuyou looked at his companions who were still in a coma and felt a little anxious.

"Teacher Zhao, what's going on? What happened to my sisters?"

Zhao Wuji sighed softly when he heard this, and kicked the soul beast curled up on the ground with his big foot.

"It's all this thing's fault."

"I noticed something strange when we first entered the forest. The air in the forest is fresh and nice, but you all know your limits. I repeatedly warned you to be cautious after entering the forest, but I still heard excited laughter from you all."

"I thought you were too excited, but when I looked closely, I saw scarlet at the end of each of their eyes, so I immediately thought of this thing."

"A thousand-year-old phantom beast with top-notch defense. It is best at creating fog. Those who inhale it will become emotionally agitated and hostile to those nearby. When the internal organs reach a certain level, they will gradually fail. This usually starts with the face turning blue-black."

At this point, Zhao Wuji's expression suddenly changed. He turned his head sharply, stared at Dai Mubai with a serious look, and said in a hurry:

"Do they turn blue or dark when they move?"

Dai Mubai and the other two looked extremely unhappy at this moment. They nodded heavily, and couldn't help but feel worried about their companions.

"Teacher Zhao, what should we do now?"

Zhao Wuji cursed softly and waved his hand to signal Dai Mubai to move aside. He gathered his soul power in his hand, turned his palm into a blade, and chopped fiercely at the head of the phantom beast.

Blood splattered all over him.

Zhao Wuji remained calm as he thrust his big palm straight into the soul beast's brain and searched around.

When the hand left the phantom beast's brain again, it was tightly holding a seemingly soft blood-red round bead.

Zhao Wuji crushed the round bead, and an extremely rich and clear air instantly swept across the entire open space.

A deep voice came

"Hold your breath and concentrate, don't let it bother you."

He walked quickly to the people tied to the tree, and touched their eyebrows one by one with his bloody fingers, leaving bloody marks on everyone's forehead.

But everyone's expressions did not ease at all, and Zhao Wuji's expression was extremely ugly at this moment.

"Zhao?"

Dai Mubai looked at Zhu Zhuqing, whose expression was grim. His anxiety was about to overflow, and he couldn't help but ask in a hurry.

"The venom of the phantom beast is not very strong, but it can be said to be fatal to soul masters below the Soul Master level. You have already surpassed the Soul Master level, and Xiao Wuyou and the other two must have special magic weapons. You are lucky."

"But their faces have turned blue and black, and their internal organs have begun to fail. There are too many of them, and the soul beads of a phantom beast are not enough to detoxify. What I did just now only slowed down the outbreak of the toxicity. In less than a quarter of an hour, they will die from the failure of their internal organs."

"The only way now is to hunt a few more phantom beasts."

"Then let's go quickly. Where does this phantom beast usually appear?"

Zhao Wuji looked at Dai Mubai, who seemed a little flustered.

"Generally speaking, there will only be this one phantom beast within a ten-kilometer radius."

Dai Mubai's steps became weak and he could not stand steadily under the huge impact. He stumbled back a few times, his chest heaving violently.

None of them are soul masters who excel in speed. Even if they use all their soul power, it will take a long time to travel 20 kilometers back and forth, not to mention catching a phantom beast with top-level defense.

His nails dug deeply into the flesh of his palms, and Dai Mubai's gums were almost broken. He looked at Zhu Zhuqing with a look of faint despair, then shifted his gaze to his unconscious companions beside him.

Blood dripped down, and his voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

"It's not too late, we can't just stand by and watch..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned and left.

Zhao Wuji also nodded. These children are all gifted talents and must not be ruined here!

If these children were to die easily under his protection, how could he have the dignity to return to the academy to meet the dean, and how could he get over this psychological barrier? !

However, the two were stuck in their tracks by Tang Wuyou's voice.

"I can cure it!"

Tang San, who was about to leave, suddenly paused and looked at Tang Wuyou in disbelief, his eyes full of disapproval.

Of course he knew what this silly girl was going to do.

But Tang Wuyou's soul was already so weak. If he used such means again, he didn't dare to think about his sister. How much hope would she have left?

Tang San rushed to Tang Wuyou in one step, holding her wrist tightly with his big hand, and even his voice was trembling.

"Are you crazy?!"

Of course, he could desperately search for the phantom beast in order to save his companions, even if it meant exhausting all his soul power.

She's just his sister, how could that be possible?

This is not saving lives, this is simply exchanging one life for another!
