Chapter 1091 - 1191: Struck Hard

The image of this wall creature seemed more like it was fleeing than coming towards them.

Ye Tianfan saw the appearance of this Demon Beast and thought it was running for its life. But on closer thought, it seemed impossible because the wall creatures are immortal. Well, not immortal, but capable of Infinite Resurrection, so they have no fear of death.

These creatures would charge at enemies regardless of who they were because they will resurrect infinitely, so no battle could instill fear in them. Instead, it was their enemies who would feel fear. Initially, Ye Tianfan thought the wall creature rushing towards them was escaping, but upon careful reflection, it was purposely coming for them.

It looks like they've truly encountered a wall creature and can check its real strength. Given the numbers on their side and the presence of a Taichu Sect cultivator, renowned as the world's greatest, they had backing.

Hence, they had no reason to be afraid. Instead, it was an opportunity to witness the real strength of wall creatures, which would prepare them for defending against or attacking these creatures using their Array techniques. This way, they won't overestimate or underestimate the wall creatures.

The crowd watched the wall creature charging towards them, but the Taichu Sect cultivator didn't act. He was protecting a few future stars of the Taichu Sect.

The crowd had no intention of making the Taichu Sect cultivator intervene early since he was their ultimate weapon. Like in a card game, you don't play your trump card at the start and save single cards for later.

Someone from the Dali Sect among them started building up his muscles and prepared to confront the wall creature.

"Let it come inside; then you kill it. Killing it amidst the negative energy won't stop its resurrection. To truly kill it, you must sever the link between the creature and the negative energy. So lure it inside and devise a way to defeat it." The Taichu Sect cultivator quickly advised the Dali Sect disciple who seemed ready to rush out of the Energy Shield created by the Chaos Treasure Lotus. He couldn't let the Dali Sect disciple fall since it would implicate his protective duty, and they were already short-handed in expanding their territory.

The Taichu Sect cultivator didn't expect this level of recklessness from the Dali Sect disciple. They hadn't ventured outside the walls all these years due to the intense negative energy empowering the wall creatures. Yet, this disciple ignored his advantageous position and placed himself at a disadvantage, akin to foolishly seeking trouble.

After the Taichu Sect cultivator's reminder, the Dali Sect disciple sheepishly scratched his head, responded affirmatively, and remained alert within the Energy Shield, ready to strike once the creature barged in.

Ye Tianfan, witnessing this scenario, quickly expanded the Energy Shield created by the Chaos Treasure Lotus. It was already sizable, but if combat ensued within, it seemed too small. Observing this, Ye Tianfan promptly enlarged the shield several times over to encompass the approaching creature.

The Dali Sect disciple was initially waiting for the wall creature to approach, but seeing the shield expand in its direction, he instinctively rushed towards the creature. At this expansion rate, the shield would soon envelop the creature, clearly intent on confining the battle within and sparing others from its impact.

Ye Tianfan was relieved when the Dali Sect disciple understood the reason for the shield's expansion. Otherwise, he'd need to make someone remind him, as he couldn't speak up and risk revealing intentions. Despite the focus on the Dali Sect disciple, cultivators like them typically have heightened awareness and can notice subtleties around them.

Even if they were concentrated on the Dali Sect disciple, Ye Tianfan's voice, if spoken, would be audible to them.

Once Ye Tianfan finished expanding the shield, the wall creature charged in, while the Dali Sect disciple summoned the massive pillar strapped to his back, wielding it like a Magical Treasure, and swung it fiercely at the wall creature.

The two collided violently, instantly generating an outward shock wave which carried a formidable gale towards everyone present.

Ye Tianfan raised a hand to shield his eyes from the shock wave.

The gust disrupted everyone's hairstyles, and after it subsided, they quickly turned to look at the clash's outcome.

The sight shocked them. They never expected such a result. The Dali Sect disciple lay on the ground, uncertain if alive, drenched in blood, resembling a bloodied figure.

Meanwhile, the rhino-like wall creature with a broken horn seemed to have its nasal spike slightly regrown.

Ye Tianfan wasn't sure if it was just an illusion, but the horn appeared capable of regenerating by absorbing human blood.

However, Ye Tianfan noticed the blood-soaked Dali Sect disciple ignored by the wall creature, raising suspicions in his mind.

If the wall creature's horn regenerates from blood, why wouldn't it care about the bloody Dali Sect disciple at its feet?

The evidence was too sparse to determine; Ye Tianfan felt uncertain. He only perceived subtle changes in the wall creature's horn's condition, and it was slight enough to suspect it as an illusion.

Regardless if it was an illusion, this wall creature was undeniably powerful, incapacitating a top-level Qian Yuan Dali Sect disciple with a single strike.
