At this moment, whether it was the silver-haired man, the woman in the green dress, or the remaining people present, their faces turned extremely grim.

The Earth Bear was among the demon beasts most adept at frontal assault.

Its physical strength, defense, and the demonic power it contained, were superior to most other demon beasts of the same level.

Cultivators in the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment often found it difficult to break through its defense.

Especially when facing these Earth Bears, there weren't just one, but as many as seven or eight of them.

How could their team possibly fend them off?

"Fellow senior brothers and sisters, I'll try to hold them off for a while. You all should separate and escape,"

Finally, the silver-haired man gritted his teeth and spoke with great difficulty.

There was no choice.

The current situation had deteriorated to an extremely severe level.

If no one stayed behind to cover them, every single one of them would likely meet their end here.

Being a cultivator trained step by step by the Demonstration Sect since childhood,

The silver-haired man was well aware that this beast tide was no longer just about one city or place, but would affect most of the Southern Wilderness Realm.

If today they couldn't report what happened here promptly, and these demon beasts formed a larger tide, increasing in scale,

Heaven-Piercing Valley behind them would definitely face a great threat.

But even at this point, escaping separately wasn't easy.

Because in the next moment, the other demon beasts, which had temporarily scattered due to the appearance of the Earth Bear, regrouped their encirclement.

Seeing this, a trace of despair flashed in everyone's eyes.

There's no way out!

Chirr!

Yet at this moment, an incredibly grand sword aura suddenly appeared around the silver-haired man and the others, carrying a tremendously powerful force.

Thud!

In an instant, a large number of demon beasts behind them, including an Earth Bear, turned into a mist of blood.

This scene happened so suddenly that the silver-haired man and the others couldn't react for a moment.

Until a voice came from across.

"Fellow Daoists of the Demonstration Sect, leave here quickly!"

Following the voice, the silver-haired man and the others finally saw clearly.

Before them was a man dressed in Ji Family robes.

In his hand...

Ah, he held a Talisman Treasure!

And not just any Talisman Treasure!

Among the many Talisman Treasures, the one he held was likely of the highest grade.

No wonder, no wonder those demon beasts, including the Earth Bear, turned to mist under his strike.

"Roar!"

Seemingly enraged by the attack,

The few remaining Earth Bears and surrounding demon beasts let out earth-shattering roars.

A pressure like mountains and seas surged toward the silver-haired man and the others once again.

Chirr!

As it happened, the Talisman Treasure held by Ji Qingfei once again shone with great brilliance.

In the void, countless Spiritual Qi gathered, finally forming a gigantic sword over ten feet long, which slashed straight at the demon beasts and Earth Bears!

In an instant, flesh and blood splattered.

Numerous demon beasts turned to blood mud under the sword light.

Seeing this, the silver-haired man and the others dared not hesitate any longer and quickly retreated.

However, there were simply too many demon beasts around.

Although Ji Qingfei, with the power of the Talisman Treasure, temporarily opened a gap for them,

that gap might soon be filled by demon beasts coming from other directions.

Most importantly, using the Talisman Treasure consumed enormous Magical Power.

Just those two strikes reduced Ji Qingfei's Magical Power to about half.

No, at this rate, eventually, they would be surrounded by the demon beasts.

A realization dawned in Ji Qingfei's heart.

At that moment, he handed the Talisman Treasure to the silver-haired man beside him.

The silver-haired man was momentarily stunned.

But before he could ask, Ji Qingfei spoke:

"Daoist, if we continue like this, we won't be able to completely evade the beast pursuit.

We must teach them a harsh lesson, only then we might have a chance to escape from here.

Next, I'll need some time, I ask that you guard me."

Finished speaking, Ji Qingfei did not wait for a response before he took out a Protective Talisman and slapped it onto himself.

Immediately after, he took several pills and swallowed them.

Once his Magical Power was slightly restored, he sat cross-legged right away.

On his knees, somehow, appeared a crimson talisman.

The talisman was grand, fiery, carrying spiritual pressure totally different from the Foundation Establishment level.

The pupils of the silver-haired man and others constricted.

"Three-stage talisman!"

Indeed.

The talisman Ji Qingfei produced was given to him by Ji Haoyuan, a three-stage talisman.

Within it, a trace of Ji Haoyuan's power was sealed.

That's why, even though Ji Qingfei was only at the Foundation Establishment level, he was confident in using the talisman.

Because Ji Haoyuan had custom-made this talisman for him.

Just a little time was needed to activate it.

The Magical Power required would only be sixty percent of his total Magical Power.

It was his greatest reliance here.

Bzzz!

As time went on, the talisman on Ji Qingfei's knees grew ever brighter.

The temperature around also began to rise as the talisman activated.

In some places, even spontaneous combustion occurred.

Seeing this, and sensing the fluctuations from the talisman, the expressions of the silver-haired man and others shook.

"Quick! Quick! Quick!

Let's attack together and buy time for this Ji Family Daoist!"

Saying this, the silver-haired man activated his Magical Power to unleash the Talisman Treasure's power.

Bang!

In mid-air,

The shadow of a long sword condensed once more.

However, perhaps sensing the horror of Ji Qingfei's talisman or the spiritual pressure beyond second-stage levels,

The demon beasts that were charging at them suddenly slowed.

Their expressions showed hesitation.

"Hmm...?"

Seeing this, the silver-haired man, about to swing his sword, paused immediately.

He exchanged glances with the others.

In their eyes, they saw a glimmer of hope.

If this continued, they might actually escape.

But their joy didn't last long.

From the depths of the forest ahead, came a terrifying wave.

Wave after wave of fierce demonic power surged toward them like a tsunami.

Under this wave, all the demon beasts displayed fear.

Even the few Earth Bears, with their huge bodies, couldn't stop trembling.

"This aura, could it be?"

The faces of the silver-haired man and others suddenly changed.

Just then, a massive bear paw in mid-air, like a sky-blocking curtain, wielding mountain-crushing pressure, swung towards Ji Qingfei and the silver-haired man!

"Three-stage demon!"

Fear flickered in the eyes of the silver-haired man and others.

Clang!

The shadow of the long sword in mid-air firmly slashed down without hesitation.

Chirrr——

However, the Talisman Treasure sword, enough to crush second-stage demon beasts, when it landed on the huge sky-blocking bear paw, only sparked slightly before collapsing into a wave, dispersing!

It's over!
