"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Boom! Swish! Whoosh!..."
Branches swung in mid-air, snapped in two by explosions, severed by longswords, and scorched by flames...
The battle continued, and it became increasingly fierce.
The cries from the Weeping Cypress Demon grew increasingly agitated and faster.
"I'll say it again: all the Calamity Beast, come to me immediately!"
"Forget about those two-legged worms, get over here right now!"
"Where's the beast? Where's the beast?!...!"
"Rui--!"
"Damn it, are you trying to betray us?! Now! Right now! Get here!..."
"..."
Shouts echoed across the battlefield.
No one knew what Weeping Cypress Demon was shouting, and no one cared.
Everyone was doing their best to leave wounds on Weeping Cypress Demon.
After a long while, it seemed to realize that no more Calamity Beast would come, or perhaps it had confirmed that the other Calamity Beast had already betrayed them.
The crack on the trunk of the Weeping Cypress Demon Lord opened up.
"Damn it! You beasts, you'd better all be dead, or else, don't let me catch you. If I do, you'll know what it feels like to be drained dry alive!!"
Angry and vicious roars echoed across the battlefield.
Shen Heng slightly hooked his left hand, intercepting this statement as well.
The next instant, a silent voice echoed in his mind.
"Damn it, these lowly beasts, I knew they couldn't be trusted!"
"If I had known it would be like this, I should have left when these two-legged insects attacked. Now..."
Shen Heng slightly raised his eyes, his gaze falling on the main trunk of the Weeping Cypress Demon.
The body of the Weeping Cypress Demon was covered with wounds of Xiaoxiao, and dark green blood flowed from many of them.
Although the injuries haven't reached the level I anticipated, is it necessary to act prematurely?... Shen Heng's eyes narrowed slightly, then he said:
"Everyone get ready, Weeping Cypress Demon is about to escape!"
Abrupt, familiar, and unquestionable words rang out in the team channel, echoing in everyone's ears.
Everyone was slightly taken aback. Before they could even think about why Shen Heng knew, someone instinctively asked:
"Are we preparing for the counterattack of the Weeping Cypress Demon before it escapes?"
The others also subconsciously turned their heads to look at Shen Heng, waiting for his answer.
No specific battle plan was formulated beforehand, since no one knew what the battle would be like.
Therefore, when Shen Heng told them to be prepared because the Weeping Cypress Demon was about to escape, everyone subconsciously thought that they should guard against a counterattack by the Weeping Cypress Demon before it escaped.
After all, Weeping Cypress Demon is currently surrounded and attacked by everyone, and it would be difficult for her to escape without a strong counterattack.
Faced with the fierce counterattack of a Fifth Tier Calamity Beast, even if it is only in the early stages, they need to be prepared to resist.
This has already been proven during the long battle just now.
It's understandable that they think that way.
After all, Shen Heng didn't tell them what Weeping Cypress Demon had just shouted, nor did he mention that he had stopped Weeping Cypress Demon from shouting.
Therefore, under these circumstances, only Shen Heng knew that Weeping Cypress Demon could not be allowed to escape.
Otherwise, once the Weeping Cypress Demon goes out, it will see that the other Calamity Beast are still resisting them.
They would soon realize that their idea was flawed and would instead contact other Calamity Beast to fight them together.
If things develop to that point, it will become even more complicated to break this Anchor Point.
therefore...
Shen Heng looked at Weeping Cypress Demon with a slightly narrowed gaze and said:
"No, we're preparing to attempt to kill the Weeping Cypress Demon!"
Upon hearing this, everyone paused slightly, their gazes instinctively falling on Weeping Cypress Demon.
They weren't against using force to kill him, but after fighting for so long without killing Weeping Cypress Demon Weeping Cypress Demon wanted to escape?
"Given the Weeping Cypress Demon's defenses, as long as it pays even the slightest attention to our movements while fleeing, we'll have virtually no chance of achieving our goal."
A short, calm voice rang out in the team channel.
Everyone subconsciously glanced at the figure wielding the Flame Blade who had just spoken— Liang Yanhao.
"Indeed, with the defense of this kind of Calamity Beast, if it really wanted to run away, we would have a hard time stopping it if we took a little precautions!" Wang Hu stared intently at the tall figure and the branch that was being swung towards him.
"I didn't say I was going to stop them, I said I was going to try to kill them!" Shen Heng repeated.
"Forced... forced killing?"
Someone instinctively remarked that even stopping it was difficult, let alone forcibly killing it.
"Swoosh--"
The longsword, burning with raging flames, slashed across the main trunk of the Weeping Cypress Demon, accompanied by a slightly painful roar.
Liang Yanhao dodged an incoming branch and landed on the ground.
His gaze sharpened, and he said:
"A direct assault? Do you have a method?"
Upon hearing this, many people were slightly taken aback, and their attention subconsciously fell on Shen Heng.
Shen Heng's gaze fell on the wounds on Weeping Cypress Demon's body, and he said calmly:
"It's simple. Since a single attack isn't working, then attack multiple times, repeatedly hitting the same wound!"
Shi Ruiyuan's brows furrowed slightly.
The principle is simple, but putting it into practice is not easy!
After all, Weeping Cypress Demon Weeping Cypress Demon wasn't stupid; she had been on guard against this since the start of the battle.
However, he didn't say anything, but continued to listen, intending to see what Shen Heng would say next.
However, to his surprise, the first sentence that followed was related to him.
" Shi Ruiyuan!" Shen Heng called out directly.
"Huh?" Shi Ruiyuan was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered, "Yes!"
"When I say it's okay later, you can immediately use all your Origin Power to create a stone pillar under the feet of the Weeping Cypress Demon on one side, causing it to lose its balance!" Shen Heng said briefly and quickly.
"Ah?"
Shi Ruiyuan subconsciously responded, then looked somewhat nervously at the enormous body that was thirty or forty meters tall in the distance.
"This... I'm not sure I can handle it!"
"It's alright, you can just use all your Origin Power!" Shen Heng's reply remained calm.
"By the way, do you have Origin Crystal on you?"
"Yes...!" Shi Ruiyuan replied.
"Then let's take advantage of this time to absorb Origin Crystal and replenish our Origin Power!" Shen Heng said quickly.
After saying that, he paused, then added:
"It's okay if you can't do it; after all, you're just the first line of defense!"
One of the insurance measures?
Shi Ruiyuan opened his eyes slightly, and he suddenly became concerned about the matter, something he hadn't cared about before.
After all, if others could do it but he couldn't, wouldn't that be embarrassing for Brother Hu?
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay, I understand!"
After explaining Shi Ruiyuan's situation, Shen Heng turned to the next person's name.
" Lin Xiao!"
"Here!" a man who was over 1.7 meters tall and had a gentle face replied.
Lin Xiao, whose ability is B-Class illusion, is a member of the Flowing Fire Squad.
"Your task is to create an illusion for the Weeping Cypress Demon when it loses its balance and instinctively panics. The illusion should depict the Weeping Cypress Demon Weeping Cypress Demon instinctively adjusting its posture and regaining its footing."
"If the Weeping Cypress Demon's body doesn't lose its balance, it can create the illusion that it will continue fighting us."
"Okay, I understand!" Lin Xiao replied.
"Afterwards, when the Weeping Cypress Demon briefly loses its perception of the outside world due to illusions, I will use Sound Wave Attack Weeping Cypress Demon mind, causing it to temporarily lose consciousness," Shen Heng continued.
"Then, Zhou Xuan, ask the Mother of Lightning to summon lightning to attack!"
"Understood!" Zhou Xuan, who was nowhere to be found, responded loudly.
