“Don’t talk ……,” Ji Guang hurriedly called out.
Only at this point, it was already too late, the sea winged leopard had already heard Ding Bu Er’s voice. With that, this sea winged seal kicked the other survivor away before pouncing towards Mo Wuji’s side.
“Everyone together.” Seeing the sea winged leopard pounce over, Ji Guang grabbed his long sword and was the first to pounce up. As Ji Guang pounced on, Gao Juan and the injured Sun Liyan also drew their weapons and rushed on. Although Ding Bu Er was weaker in combat, but this was something he caused, he naturally rushed up without hesitation.
Of the five, only Mo Wuji didn’t charge up, and not only did Mo Wuji not charge up, he didn’t even move.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of death, but after listening to Ji Guang talk about the Arrow Spitting Beast, he had been paying attention to his surroundings. This Sea Winged Leopard should be able to be blocked with four people making a move, it didn’t matter much if he went up or not, it was the Spraying Arrow Beast that injured Sun Liyan with an arrow just now that made Mo Wuji even more scared.
It was easy to hide from open fire, but it was hard to guard against dark arrows, Mo Wuji was more worried about the arrow spraying beast that was hiding on the side.
Things were indeed roughly similar to what Mo Wuji had guessed, Ji Guang’s four men basically blocked the attack of the sea winged seal. The Sea Winged Leopard had a lot of strength but was not very agile. The four people who surrounded the Sea Winged Leopard, apart from Ding Bu Er, the three of them, Ji Guang, were obviously battle-hardened and very experienced, and the four of them fought the Sea Winged Leopard to a draw. Unfortunately, Sun Liyan was injured and was not very smooth between actions.
The Seafoam Leopard relied on its strength to charge across the board. After only a few minutes, Ding Bu Er’s weakness was revealed. In an opening when it was a little late to back off, the seal opened its mouth and bit into Ding Bu Er.
Ding Bu Er used his old stance and had no chance to change direction, seeing that Ding Bu Er was about to be swallowed by the Sea Winged Leopard. Mo Wuji couldn’t care any longer and was about to rush out when a black shadow was like an arrow, shooting rapidly towards Ji Guang.
When Mo Wuji saw Ji Guang rushing towards the sea winged seal to save Ding Bu Er, he changed direction at the first opportunity. With Ji Guang stepping out to save Ding Bu Er, all he had to do was to help Ji Guang block that one sneaky sharp arrow.
“Ding!” A black arrow directly blasted onto Mo Wuji’s blade surface as a powerful force impacted. It was a good thing that Mo Wuji was already at the first level of Pulse Expansion, if he was still in the state he was in before his cultivation, the force of this impact would have been enough to send him flying backwards.
After Mo Wuji blocked this black arrow, he pushed his feet hard and directly pounced on a piece of open-air coral. He had long been clear that this black arrow was shot out from this coral, and combined with Ji Guang’s statement, he naturally knew that this coral was the Arrow Spewing Beast.
Facing something like the Arrow Spraying Beast, confronting it from a distance was an act of looking for death.
At the first layer of the Pulse Expansion Realm, coupled with the passage of 27 meridians, even if he hadn’t advanced yet, Mo Wuji’s instantaneous burst speed was extremely rapid. A distance of more than ten metres had arrived almost within a second.
The long blade slashed out, tearing the air with a whistling sound.
The arrow-spewing beast had sneak attacked Ji Guang, but he didn’t expect Mo Wuji to suddenly scramble out and block its arrow. Coupled with the fact that the time between Mo Wuji blocking the arrow and rushing in front of it was extremely short, the arrow-spewing beast was unable to dodge it for a moment.
“Poof!” The knife slashed on the coral, but it had the feeling of splitting into flesh and blood. A spurt of blood came out, and Mo Wuji saw the arrow spraying beast transform into a shadow that directly disappeared from under his knife.
Other than hearing a faintly inaudible wind sound, Mo Wuji never saw any trace of the arrow spraying beast again. At the place where the coral was just now, there was still a streak of blood.
Mo Wuji guessed that the arrow spraying beast wouldn’t be coming back, he hurriedly turned around, wanting to go and help Ji Guang and the others, when he heard that Sea Winged Leopard let out a raging hiss.
Mo Wuji saw that Ji Guang’s curved sword had already split open the lower half of that Sea Winged Leopard’s mouth, and blood directly sprayed out.
The Sea Winged Leopard lost some of its rhythm in its fury, and was stabbed in the throat by the long knives of both Gao Juan and Sun Liyan.
Not very willingly, the sea winged seal’s body directly fell down, cracking a reef.
Ji Guang did not bother to look at the slain Sea Winged Leopard, instead, he walked over to Mo Wuji, bowed to Mo Wuji and said, “Brother Mo, thank you for saving my life again.”
Ji Guang had helped Ding Bu Er block a calamity, so he naturally knew that Mo Wuji had also helped him block an arrow from the Arrow Spitting Beast at the same time. If Mo Wuji hadn’t helped him block that arrow, there was a high chance that the arrow would have gone straight through his neck. Other injuries could still be healed, but with his neck being shot through, I’m afraid that his chances of surviving would be very low.
“Brother Ji, since we are in a group, naturally we should work together. Besides, if it wasn’t for Brother Ji, Bu Er would probably be in dire straits.” Mo Wuji said with a smile.
There was a saying that everyone knew by heart, rather than Mo Wuji saving Ji Guang, it was better to say that Ji Guang saved himself.
If Ji Guang didn’t make a move to save Ding Bu Er, Mo Wuji definitely wouldn’t have gone to help Ji Guang to stop the disaster, he would have chosen to save Ding Bu Er in the first place.
“Brother Mo, I’ve made you a friend. Previously, I thought that you wanted to take advantage of the situation, but it looks like I was being petty. If it wasn’t for you hiding on the side waiting for that arrow-spewing beast, it would have been hard for Brother Ji to escape this.” Sun Liyan, who had been silent, took the initiative to say to Mo Wuji this time.
“Everyone, there’s no need to be courteous, we’re going to search for the Sea Winged Leopard’s egg now.” Ji Guang waved his hand and went ahead first.
This time, the crowd barely spent much effort before they found a smooth reef cave. The cave was huge, with a height and width of more than a zhang.
Before even entering the cave, the five of them smelled a fishy odour.
“This is it.” Ji Dangxi said, “This cave should be used temporarily by the sea-winged seals to incubate their eggs, and in at most four months, the sea-winged seals will abandon this place and leave.”
The five of them fishtailed into the cave and soon entered the depths of the cave. Deep in the cave was a huge simple nest built with beast hair, and there were six eggs in the middle of the nest.
This should be the Sea Winged Leopard’s eggs, what made Mo Wuji puzzled was that five of the six eggs were as big as a volleyball, and one was surprisingly only a third of the size of the remaining eggs. Not only that, the remaining five large eggs were black and white mottled colours that looked beautiful, the smaller egg was earthy yellow and looked more like a large sized egg.
“Luck is good this time, one for each of the five large eggs, that smaller one is probably not a sea winged seal’s egg, it should have been picked up by the sea winged seal from somewhere else. That small one is also for Brother Mo, what does everyone think?” Ji Guang immediately made the distribution.
Ding Bu Er and Mo Wuji were together, so naturally, they wouldn’t have any objections. Sun Liyan and Gao Juan agreed as well, they knew Mo Wuji’s strength clearly. This time, everyone was able to come here unharmed, it could be said that Mo Wuji deserves the most credit.
Mo Wuji smiled and said, “No need, I’ll just take this small one. Bu Er will take one, and the remaining four will be given to Brother Ji’s three, after all, Brother Ji was the one who brought us to this place.”
After saying that he went ahead and took the smaller egg in his hand, the purpose of his visit had long been achieved. If it wasn’t for Ji Guang, he wouldn’t have been able to find this place, let alone penetrate the twenty-seven meridians along the way.
If it wasn’t for the miscellaneous disciple token sent by Qin Xiangyu, Mo Wuji wouldn’t have been so pretentious as to directly collect the two eggs. After all, a sea winged leopard’s egg might be able to make him a miscellaneous servant disciple. Now that he had the miscellaneous servant disciple token, it was pointless to ask for this sea winged leopard’s egg. Since this was the case it would be better to let Ji Guang have it, sometimes being able to suffer a loss wasn’t a bad thing, this was a valuable experience that Mo Wuji had once gained.
Even if he brought the sea winged seal’s egg, he would not be able to hatch this sea winged seal’s egg, killing the sea winged seal and then hatching the sea winged seal’s offspring to be used to sit on a beast pet made Mo Wuji feel a little awkward. Even if he didn’t move his hand in killing the Sea Winged Leopard, it was still the same.
“Good, thank you for brother Mo’s open-mindedness. Brother Mo will be my Ji Guang’s friend from now on, if there’s anything I need my Ji Guang to help, Brother Mo can just ask.” Ji Guang didn’t push back much, one of his sea winged seal’s eggs was indeed not enough. The reason why he had to let Mo Wuji have it was because Mo Wuji’s credit was truly greater than his, and Mo Wuji had also saved his life.
