Chapter 108 Gap
The mad scholar reacted quickly, dodging sideways and waving his folding fan. A gust of wind whistled up, colliding violently with Master Jia's sword energy. The two powerful forces offset each other, setting off a violent shock wave that seemed to tear the surrounding air apart.
Master Jia gritted his teeth, not flinching, and continued to attack. His swordsmanship became increasingly fierce, his moves varied, and each strike carried a deadly threat, leaving the mad scholar no chance to breathe.
At the same time, Uncle Cai, Lao Huang and Ah Qi, who had just been repelled, regained their spirits and attacked again.
"Draw a line on the ground to make a prison!" Uncle Cai chanted quickly. As his words fell, a faint light rose from the ground. The light quickly spread out, and in the blink of an eye it formed a huge green light net, like an indestructible cage, tightly wrapping the crazy scholar inside.
"If I don't make a sound, I'll be nothing. But when I do, I'll start a surprise." Xiao Qi also muttered to himself, and heard a sharp scream, so sharp and piercing that it seemed to tear the sky apart.
Accompanied by a shrill cry, a large, strange-looking bird suddenly appeared in the air, spreading its wings and soaring high into the sky, stirring up a gust of wind as its wings flapped. This bird was enormous, with colorful feathers, and exuded a powerful aura.
It hissed and pounced towards the mad scholar, like a ferocious falcon, at an extremely fast speed, and arrived in front of the mad scholar in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Lao Huang was not to be outdone. He stomped his feet suddenly, and his body size more than doubled. His muscles bulged and veins popped out, showing his powerful strength.
Old Huang pulled out an axe from somewhere, the blade flashing with a cold light, as if it could cut through anything. He swung the axe with the force of thunder and struck the mad scholar fiercely, his momentum as powerful as a rainbow.
Facing the combined force of the three, the mad scholar finally put away his carefree demeanor. His eyes sharpened, and he gently waved the folding fan in his hand, turning it around and creating the sound of rushing water.
The sound was like the roar of a thousand horses, deafening. As the sound rang out, the originally calm air began to violently fluctuate, as if stirred by something.
Then, the water surged violently, transforming into countless tiny, transparent water arrows that rained down on Uncle Cai, Xiao Qi, and Lao Huang. These water arrows were incredibly fast and had strong penetrating power, making them impossible to defend against.
"Not good, retreat quickly!" Uncle Cai was the first to sense the danger. He immediately shouted a warning and dodged the most deadly wave of attacks with a flash of his body.
But Old Huang and Xiao Qi weren't so quick to react. Despite Uncle Cai's warning, they were still a step too late. Seeing the water arrows about to hit him, Old Huang simply gave up trying to resist and shouted, "Let the wind blow from all directions! Repel it!"
Immediately afterwards, the blue protective shield that Gu Yunzhou was extremely familiar with rose up.
There was a crackling sound, and countless water arrows rained down like raindrops. Lao Huang's body swayed slightly, but he managed to keep his balance.
However, the worst of it all was the strange bird summoned by Xiao Qi. It appeared quite majestic upon its initial appearance, but its charm lasted only three seconds as the vast majority of the dense swarm of water arrows hurled themselves at it. The strange bird let out a shrill cry, and as quickly as it had appeared, it vanished in the blink of an eye, dissipating into a cloud of spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
Without the monster bird's protection, Xiao Qi was completely exposed to the water arrows. His scalp tingled as he watched the endless stream of water arrows. And behind him, there was the mad scholar, gazing intently at him, ready to strike at any moment. This left him with no choice but to continue charging forward.
"Xiao Qi, get down!" At this moment, Lao Huang roared, and the axe in his hand danced vigorously. The axe blade brought up a sharp wind, and actually formed a small whirlwind in the venue.
The whirlwind was howling, as if it was going to sweep up everything around it.
The water arrow was also attracted by the whirlwind and slowly deviated from its original trajectory.
Seeing this scene, everyone was delighted and temporarily relieved.
However, before they could completely relax, a strong sense of crisis suddenly hit them.
They were horrified to find that the crazy scholar who had been keeping a certain distance from them had quietly approached them and was almost within reach.
"It's just a trifle!" Following an angry shout, the voice exploded in the ears of several people like thunder.
At the same time, they felt a powerful force suddenly hit them, and their bodies flew backwards involuntarily, spitting out blood from their mouths.
"When the great roc soars up with the wind, it can reach up to ninety thousand miles! Here comes the wind!" Gu Yunzhou had been paying close attention to the situation in the field. When he saw Master Jia and others being knocked away so easily, he became very anxious.
He quickly cast a spell and summoned a Peng bird that was more than one meter long.
Although this bird is insignificant compared to the legendary Dapeng, it still displays amazing speed and strength.
Gu Yunzhou jumped onto the Peng bird's back without hesitation and grabbed its feathers tightly.
As a gust of wind whistled past, the Peng bird instantly turned into a lightning-fast figure. In the blink of an eye, it flew to the side of the people who were knocked away, caught them steadily, and carried them on its back.
Then it soared straight into the sky and flew towards the distant sky. All this happened in a split second. When the mad scholar looked up, there was only a faint black dot left in the sky. The speed was really fast.
"Interesting. The Great Peng transformed from this poem is so fast. It seems that it has reached the level of mastery. It is indeed worthy of being the guy that the Gu family would pay a huge price to eliminate. It is only a ninth-grade creature, but it can slip away from under my nose. But that's all!"
A trace of disdain flashed across the mad scholar's face, his laughter filled with arrogance and conceit. However, he didn't give up. With a single wave of his hand, he gently waved his folding fan, and another demonic beast emerged from the fan.
This beast had a very strange appearance. It resembled a horse, but had three eyes on its head. Its fur was a bright red, like a burning flame. Its appearance made the surrounding air become blazing, as if it was going to burn everything to ashes.
The mad scholar rode the three-eyed fire horse, looking majestic and imposing. His eyes revealed an unparalleled confidence, as if nothing could stop him. The three-eyed fire horse, carrying the mad scholar, sped off in the direction Gu Yunzhou had disappeared, its speed no less than that of a roc carrying several people.
