Chapter Nineteen: Sudden Change
Innumerable wind spirits burst out of the cave like a volcanic eruption or a flood, surging towards Bai Cang and others. Although they were only baron-level wind spirits, their numbers were simply too overwhelming.
Bai Cang and the others all changed color, six people, one person fainted, four people basically lost their combat effectiveness, only Li Xiangfei, who had just been promoted to viscount, still had fighting power.
Feng Ling's movement speed wasn't fast, but Li Xi Feng and the others who had exhausted their strength didn't have the energy to escape. In the blink of an eye, they were engulfed by Feng Ling's torrent.
A strong golden light burst out from Li Xiangfei's body, forming a shield that enveloped Bai Cangdong and the others.
The wind spirit crashed into the golden light, its semi-transparent body was scattered in part, but even so, the wind spirit still charged at the light shield with reckless abandon.
The Viscount-level divine light was very powerful, but unfortunately, Li Xiangfei had just been promoted to Viscount and her divine light was still in its initial stage. Moreover, the number of Fengling was too large, each one fearlessly colliding with the light shield, making it difficult for Li Xiangfei to hold on.
"Miss Xiangfei, you can go, we're done for." Seeing Li Xiangfei gritting her teeth and desperately holding on to the light shield, Li Xifeng sighed.
"You came for me, how can I let you go? Let's die together here." Li Xiangfei said resolutely.
Although death is near, Li Xifeng and others still feel a little moved when they hear these words.
"Ruo Ge said loudly: 'With Miss Xiang Fei's words, we can die without regret. Miss Xiang Fei, you should leave quickly and not make such a meaningless sacrifice. We'll wait for another day to kill all these Feng Lings and avenge us.'"
"I will never abandon you." Li Xiangfei's eyes flashed with pain, but instantly became resolute.
Bai Cangdong took out the Jade Essence Pill at this time and swallowed it without hesitation, only feeling a warm current flowing throughout his body, and his energy returned to his body in an instant.
"Lao Bai, you're done for..." Li Xifeng said in surprise, staring at the powerful figure of Bai Cangdong standing up.
Li Xiangfei also shouted: "Bai Cangdong, let's take everyone and break out together."
Bai Cang shook his head and ignored Li Xiangfei, charging into the Wind Spirit like an arrow leaving a bowstring, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.
"You..." Li Xiangfei was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Bai Cang didn't care what Li Xiangfei thought, he was very clear that even if he and Li Xiangfei joined forces, it would be impossible to escape with Li Xiufeng and the others from Sheng Tian, in the end they could only die together.
The only way to save a few people is to rush out of the Wind Island and seek help from the Silver Armor Knights, only in this way will Li Xifeng and others have a chance to survive.
After leaving Li Xiangfei and the others out of sight, Bai Cangdong immediately summoned the Ling Luo sword and opened a painful slash all the way to kill, Feng Ling this undead tribe, pain is different from humans and also different from Jieguigui, now Bai Cangdong does not have time to slowly try their pain points, each sword only uses full force to slash, hoping to break through a bloody road, as soon as possible back to the ship to seek help from the Silver Armor Knight.
A single Wind Spirit was indeed no threat to the Baron, but countless Wind Spirits gathering together were a different story. Each Wind Spirit released a small whirlwind blade, which Bai Canghai could easily shatter, but when dozens or hundreds of whirlwind blades came slashing at once, even with his exceptional swordsmanship, he couldn't possibly block them all without his true divine light.
They had barely charged less than five miles when the white armor suit on Bai Cong's body was already tattered and stained with fresh blood seeping out from inside, almost dyeing the pure white armor red.
"It's impossible to survive and escape from the Windless Isle at this rate." Bai Cangdong found that more and more wind spirits were surging out of the cave, spreading in all directions towards the four sides of the Windless Isle.
The blade's edge is almost useless in the surging wind spirits, and to move through the gaps, there must be gaps to walk through. Now the wind spirits are crowded together, and apart from forcibly killing a bloody path, there is no clever way out.
"Something strange is happening on the island, and the Silver Armor Knights should have noticed it by now." Bai Cangdong looked towards the direction where the sailboat was docked, but only saw countless wind spirits.
Boom!
A red and black light column shot up into the sky, and Bai Cang saw it after his face turned green.
"The Altar of Immortality has descended!" Bai Cangdong exclaimed, with the current number of Feng Lings on Wind Island, the Altar of Immortality has now appeared, and everyone is doomed to die, without a single chance of survival. Even seeking help from the Silver Armor Knights has become a laughable dream, let alone the Silver Armor Knights, even if it were Duke Kailuo himself who came, it would be impossible for him to break into the Altar of Immortality's domain.
A red and black light enveloped the entire sky, while those wind spirits gradually became violent, their white transparent bodies also turning towards a bloody red color.
Bai Cang's heart turned ruthless, and he immediately rushed towards the place where the Undying Altar was located.
The Viscount-level Wind Spirit has been killed, and the Wind Spirits that are rushing out of the cave are all Baron-level. If there aren't any other Viscount-level undead creatures around, then only these Baron-level Wind Spirits will be guarding the Eternal Crystal.
No matter how much the Baron-level Wind Spirit mutates, it is still a Baron-level Wind Spirit. Just like the Splitting Ghost, after mutation, although it becomes extremely ferocious, it still doesn't have the Undead Light and remains within the range that Bai Cangdong can kill.
"Now the only way to survive is to rush up to the altar and shatter the Eternal Crystal." Bai Cangdong ignored his injuries, holding the silk sword in one hand and summoning a pure white knight's greatsword with the other. He swung wildly, charging towards the Undead Altar.
Hakuren Oak previously trained in the painful sword technique with a large two-handed sword as a pure white knight. Due to his lack of physical strength, he couldn't continue training with one hand for an extended period, so he alternated hands during practice. As a result, both his left and right hands are capable of using the painful sword technique.
Bai Cangdong had never tried using knife techniques with both hands before, but now that he was forced into a desperate situation, his combat strength increased unexpectedly greatly as he used the painful knife technique with both hands.
He was a pure white knight with two-handed great sword and silk sword, one extremely heavy and the other light as nothing. It was very difficult to control both hands at first, and Bai Cangdong frequently made mistakes, causing his injuries to increase. However, as time passed, under the pressure of high-intensity battles and death threats, Bai Cangdong's dual swords became more and more coordinated, with fewer and fewer errors. In the torrential mutated wind spirits, he actually managed to kill a bloody path and charged to the front of the Undying Altar.
"It really doesn't have a Viscount-level undead guardian!" Seeing only some variant Baron-level wind spirits on the altar, Bai Canghai was excited to almost moan out loud.
Without a moment's hesitation, the twin swords shot up to the altar like whirlwinds, and even the transformed Wind Spirit couldn't stop him for an instant.
Boom!
This was not the first time that Bai Cao Dong had shattered an Eternal Crystal, and he didn't feel anything special, but he saw a transparent colorless crystal plate fall out from the shattered Eternal Crystal.
Bai Cangdong only saw the two words "Feng Ling" written on it, and before he could take a closer look, he grabbed it and quickly ran down from the altar, watching from afar as the altar disappeared into the distorted space.
The altar of the undead disappeared, and the wind spirit returned to normal. However, a large number of wind spirits still pose a huge threat. Earlier, Bai Cangdong had exhausted all his strength rushing towards the altar of the undead, but now facing countless wind spirits, he felt his physical strength rapidly draining away. Moreover, the wounds on his body continued to bleed, making him even weaker.
Bai Cangdong had no way out, and with only a glimmer of will to survive, he charged towards the direction of the sailboat, his resolve starting to blur.
In front of the cave, Li Xiangfei had almost exhausted her life's divine light. Having just been promoted to viscount, her life's divine light was originally weak, and it was already a miracle that she could support such a large light shield to protect several people for so long.
"Is it going to die? Now dying is also a relief!" Li Xiangfei's body flickered with a faint light, and her eyes quietly closed.
Boom!
A silver light descended from the sky like a giant sword, directly annihilating hundreds of wind spirits. The Silver Armor Knight's aura appeared, and he rushed to Li Xiangfei's side at incredible speed as she was already exhausted.
"Under my protection, you were harmed. I deserve ten thousand deaths. Please, Miss, punish me." The Silver Armored Knight knelt on one knee before Li Xiangfei.
"Uncle Silver Armor, don't be like this." Li Xiangfei hastily helped the Silver Armor Knight up.
"Miss, this is not a place to stay for long. The wind is about to pick up, we must leave here quickly." The silver armored knight said with a serious expression.
"Yes, we must leave here immediately." Li Xiangfei emphasized our two words and then went to support Li Xifeng and others.
The silver-armored knight nodded secretly: "Miss, please rest assured that I will definitely protect you and them to leave the Wind Island safely."
The Silver Armor Knight's divine light was overwhelmingly powerful, and with a mere raise of his hand, he could annihilate over a hundred Wind Spirits. Those Wind Spirits didn't dare to approach him, and despite carrying the unconscious Li Yan and the physically weak Li Xi Feng, their traveling speed was still extremely fast.
"Wait a minute." As they walked halfway, the Silver Armor Knight suddenly stopped and jumped up and down in front of a cave, embracing someone from inside.
"Ah, it's Old Bai, is he still alive?" Li Xifeng asked in shock, seeing that Bai Cangdong was covered in blood from head to toe, with almost no intact spot on his body.
"He's not dead, this kid's life is really big, he was injured like this but didn't have a single fatal wound. If I had heard the sound of him falling down and rescued him earlier, he would have been torn apart by Feng Ling just now. However, with such injuries, it will take at least a year or two to recover." The Silver Armor Knight said.
"Hmph, such a despicable person who abandons friends like this deserves to die." Li Xiangfei said coldly.
"Miss, what's going on?" The Silver Armored Knight frowned and said.
"Lao Bai must be thinking of going to ask for help from the Silver Armor Knight, that's why he left first. Miss Xiangfei, don't misunderstand." Li Xifeng said before Li Xiangfei could speak up.
Seeing Li Xifeng say so, Li Xiangfei didn't say much either. The group of people returned safely to the ship under the protection of the Silver Armor Knights.
