In the scope of Lin Mu's spirit sense, he could see hundreds if not thousands of beasts bursting out of the seal. Thankfully, the seal was not fully broken, so not all of them had been released all at once. But the ones that were being released were still more than Lin Mu had killed in the entire ruins till now. He and the team kept on running away and five minutes quickly passed. "Is this far enough? We need to halt and asses our situation. Plus, I don't think the disciples can keep up such speed any longer." Jing Luo spoke up. Lin Mu checked up on the disciples and saw that the ones that were in the core condensation realm were already showing signs of being tired. It was normal since they had covered a long distance in a very short time. It was fine for Lin Mu to be able to keep up that speed in the core condensation realm, but the same could not be expected for the disciples. Even with their spirit tools, it was difficult for them to fly for extended periods of times and would be taxing on their spirit Qi. "All disciples are to quickly replenish their spirit Qi. Use as many spirit stones as you have to!" Elder Weimin quickly ordered, knowing the situation. "The beasts will be pouring out in droves soon enough." Lin Mu informed. "What do we do now?" Elder Weimin questioned. Lin Mu furrowed his brows and considered the different possibilities that might happen. ~BOOM~ But just as he was doing that, he heard a loud explosions happening in the distance. Narrowing his eyes, he could see a black dot speedily approaching the ruins. "A Dao Shell realm cultivator?" Lin Mu sensed. He could also tell that this person was strong and was at least at the shell completion stage of the Dao Shell realm, if not higher. The man seemingly used some technique and a large red sword appeared in the sky. ~Crackle~ Everyone could hear the sharp sound of embers crackling. "Ember Dawn Blade! That's a technique of the Centennial Sword Sect!" Elder Weimin recognized. Lin Mu furrowed his brows upon seeing this, but at the same time felt a bit relieved. "As long as they don't discover us, we might not have to do anything." Lin Mu muttered. ~ZING~ The Dao Shell realm cultivator from the Centennial sword sect weaved his fingers in the air and the large red sword followed its path. ~BOOM~ The sword lights shot out of the large red blade and created explosions that destroyed the ruins. But at the same time, another sound was heard. ~SKREEE!!!~ The screeching sound of a beast could be heard coming from the depths of the ruins. ~RUMBLE~ The ruins burst open as a large beast flew out of it. It had a navy blue crystal on its neck and looked like a monkey with white scaly skin and long fingers that looked like tentacles. "A Dao Shell realm one…" Elder Weimin also recognized. The beast and the man facing it started to fight and soon a battle ensured. The large red sword waved through the air and slashed at the monkey beast, but was unable to do much damage. The beast's scales were far too strong and could easily withstand the very attacks that had broken through the ground. It was something that would stun the other sects if they ever saw it. The Ember Dawn Blade was one of the top five techniques of the centennial sword sect and was very strong. The average Dao Shell realm beast or cultivator would be split apart with even one of its attacks. The Dao Shell realm cultivator furrowed his brows and realized that the beast in front of him was different from the others that they had information about. While they knew about the crystal and the peculiarity of the beasts, the toughness of this beast was still beyond their expectations. "Humph! It's just a matter of attempts. If one doesn't work, I'll do hundreds!" The man said before slashing out many more times. The attacks were very fast and the ape beast was unable to fully keep up with them. After about a minute, the man finally managed to make the very first injury on the ape. ~SKREEE!~ The beast cried out in pain as one of its legs was chopped off. The man smiled seeing this and spoke, "so I just need to focus on a single part till it's cut off!" The beast became angry in pain and started to rampage, attacking randomly. ~RUMBLE~ While the elder of the centennial sword sect was busy in dealing with the monkey beast, the ground started to shake again. ~kiiii~ ~ziziziziziz~ Various sounds could be heard, as the ruins were broken even more. ~thud~thud~thud~ Soon, hundreds of different beasts came out of the debris. They were covered in blue black blood and some body parts of other beasts could also be seen sticking to their bodies. It was as if they had dug their way out of a pile of corpses. "Humph! So there were more of them there?" The Elder said. "Violet Myrtle Drop!" Another voice was heard coming from the back as a second person appeared. This was a middle aged man and held a small cup in his hand. Above that cup, a small drop of liquid was floating. It was violet in color and looked rather vibrant. The man looked at the beast with a lofty gaze and poured the cup towards them. The violet drop flew out of the cup and started to fall towards them. There was no sound made from it, but even then, the pressure exuding from the drop was different. Even Lin Mu could feel the strangeness that made him wrinkle his brows. ~splat~ The drop finally struck the ground in the middle of the beasts and showed its power. ~FIZZ~ Almost immediately, it started to spread and covered all the beasts.. In the next second, the beasts started to melt and disappeared within thirty seconds.
