"Ling Tian, I'll cover you as you rush out. Don't bother about these two magical beasts!”The longer the battle, the greater the pressure, but the number of demonic wolves was still endless. Seeing this, Delin had no choice but to prepare for the worst and advised Ling Tian.
"Old man, you go first. Don't worry about me. Since we're here to save them, we can't leave them behind.”Ling Tian's tone was extremely firm. He used the Light Barrier to protect the two magical beasts while he guarded the barrier. When he encountered the demonic wolf's attack, he swung his sword. A shrill sound rang out, and the wolf's head fell to the ground. It was simple and fast. There was no extra movement, and he did not waste any energy.
The two of them fought for an hour in the pack of wolves, but their physical strength was limited. Their speed gradually slowed down, and their sweat had already soaked their underwear. Doehring was too old, so he couldn't keep up physically, and his movements and energy couldn't keep up. He was bitten by a magic wolf. Delin didn't even have time to take care of his wound when another large group of demon wolves pounced over. Looking at the countless demon wolves in front of him, he let out a bitter sigh. It seemed like his life was going to end here.
Suddenly, a powerful aura soared into the sky. Although it was not as strong as his, it was indeed the aura of a Silver Rank expert. Could it be that someone had come to save him?
"Old man, go into the barrier to rest and recover your strength. I will guard the barrier first. Then, you take over, and I'll take turns guarding the barrier.”Ling Tian held the sword in his right hand and slashed a bloody path to Doehring's side. He then wrapped the shocked Doehring in his silver battle qi barrier and charged towards the barrier.
After pushing Doehring into the barrier, Ling Tian let out a sigh of relief. His silver battle qi was pushed to its peak, and his eyes were filled with killing intent as he stood in front of the barrier. Doehring looked at Ling Tian, who was wrapped in silver battle qi, and continued to slash his sword at the wolves, not backing down at all. His small body seemed so strong and resolute. At this moment, in Delin's eyes, his body seemed very tall.
"Little Ling Tian, you can leave on your own and break out of the encirclement. Don't worry about me, I'll attract these wolves here and you can escape.”Delin was surprised that Ling Tian's magic level had already exceeded his expectations at such a young age. He didn't think that Ling Tian's battle qi had already reached Silver rank.
It was a pity that such a genius would die here for no reason. He thought to himself that he had never broken through to Silver rank in his entire life and stepped into the ranks of peak Gold rank experts. Moreover, he was already 60 years old. It was already impossible for him to break through. Moreover, dying here was not considered short-lived. Moreover, it was worth it to save a child with a brighter future!
"Old man, rest assured and recover your strength. I won't leave. If we die, we'll die together. Moreover, if the two of us can guard this array for a period of time, we might still be saved.”
"Can be saved? Who's going to save him?"
"Think about it. With such a huge commotion here, it should be able to attract the attention of the other magical beasts in the forest. Phoenixes live in groups. As for this little phoenix, its group will definitely come looking for it. As long as they come, we will be saved.”
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?" Hearing that there was still hope, Doehring calmed down and recovered his strength. Although he knew that the chances were slim, as long as there was hope, no one was willing to give up when their lives were at stake. This was because he believed that there was always hope. As long as they fought hard, miracles could happen. Humans were such creatures. An hour later, Delin felt that he had recovered some of his strength and was ready to take over Ling Tian's position.
"Ling Tian, it's my turn now. You go in and rest.”
"Alright, old man, you have to be careful!”After Doehring came out, he activated his silver battle qi and took over Ling Tian's position, slashing with his sword. Ling Tian turned around to look at Delin, and seeing that he could still handle it, he went in to recover his stamina.
"Old man, don't force yourself. If you can't hold on, just say it. Only when both of us are here can we take turns to protect each other.”
"I know, kid. I won't joke around with my life. Hurry up and recover. My old man can still hold on for now.”
Ling Tian knew that time was of the essence, so he decided to calm down and cultivate his Qi to recover his stamina and mana. After two hours of battle, it would be extremely taxing on his young body. He also knew that only by maintaining his best condition could he survive from danger. This was his experience in surviving in the forest for five years.
"Old man, it's my turn this time." After resting for a while, Ling Tian prepared to take over from Delin.
"No need, I can still hold on for a while.”
"Old man, don't force yourself. Be careful not to get hurt.”After all, physical strength could be recovered after taking a rest, but it was not something that could be recovered in a short period of time if one was injured.
"Don't worry, I know. I'll know my limits! You should rest a little more. I can still hold on for a while.”
"Alright, in that case, I'll rest for a while.”Seeing how insistent Delin was, Ling Tian could only agree to his wishes. Furthermore, at this moment of life and death, Delin would not treat his own life as a joke.
"Brat, it's up to you!" As soon as Delin slowed down, he knew that he had reached his limit, so he called Ling Tian to replace him. Just like that, the two of them exchanged positions to guard the barrier. Although the demon wolf outside was still looking at them like a wolf, the two of them surrounded the barrier and protected a tiny hope. They kept fighting.
The demon wolf seemed to have lost its patience. It was very angry that the two humans had blocked it for such a long time. The wolf blood and wolf corpses on the ground did not scare the demon wolf away. Instead, it stimulated the demon wolf's ferocity, and its attack became stronger and stronger. As the two of them exchanged more and more frequently, the amount of time they had to rest decreased. Both of them dragged their exhausted bodies, and even Ling Tian, who was resting, was gasping for breath. It seemed like his stamina had already reached its limit.
"Old man, I don't think we can hold on for much longer.”
"How do we defend the barrier after we retreat? Both of them would die. Why don't you run first? I can hold on for a while and create more opportunities for you.”
"Escape? With my current body, I have no stamina left and can't escape.”Looking at the densely packed demonic wolves around him, Ling Tian could only smile bitterly.
"Ah!" Delin was distracted as he spoke, and another wolf claw mark appeared on his left hand, fresh blood flowing out.
"Old man, come in. I can still hold on for a while with my magic power.”Fighting outside consumed Stamina quickly, but as long as he could support his Mana inside the barrier, his Stamina consumption would naturally decrease.
"Looks like this is the only way.”Doehring didn't dawdle. He fought as he approached, and when he found an opportunity, he slipped into the barrier. After entering, she sat down panting. She tore off a piece of clothing and roughly bandaged her wound. The corrosion of her wound could not be controlled for the time being.
The demon wolves saw that their prey had all hidden in the barrier. After attacking for so long, they still did not enjoy the food. They attacked even more wantonly and violently, pouncing towards the barrier in groups. Ling Tian continued to pour his demonic energy into the barrier. This was the last bit of hope, and he would not give up until the last moment of despair, even though he felt that the hope was getting slimmer and slimmer.
"I originally wanted to help you, but I didn't expect to be a burden in the end.”Delin said helplessly and disappointedly.
"You've already helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, I would probably have died long ago. Actually, it had nothing to do with you. I dragged you into this, and you have to die with me.”
"Hehe, I don't mind. I'm already over 60. I won't die short either. It's a pity that you have to be buried here at such a young age!”In the face of death, Delin's heroic spirit didn't diminish.
"Yeah, I didn't expect to die here.”Ling Tian looked at the two magical beasts lying on the ground and smiled bitterly.
At this moment, the Flame-Winged Lion and the little phoenix seemed to have sensed the aura of death. It was obvious that these two humans could not save them either. Their last hope had been destroyed.
At this moment, within the barrier, the two humans and two beasts did not speak. Perhaps they were waiting for the final death.
"Chirp-- Upon hearing this cry, the little phoenix lying on the ground trembled. Its eyes flickered with an endless light of hope, and it immediately responded with a "ji-ji-".
Delin later recalled," At this moment, the phoenix cry seemed to come from beyond the heavens, from the fairyland. It pulled me back from the endless abyss and the endless aura of death. I have never heard such a beautiful cry in my life! I don't know what Ling Tian was thinking at that time, but I could feel that his aura was also very excited. His hands that had been using demonic power all this time also trembled when he heard the phoenix cry!”
