Immortal Path Space

Chapter 193: Offering a Plan

After swiftly dodging the attack of the Demon Wolves, the colossal beasts crashed to the ground with a thunderous roar, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Wang Hong waved his hand, collecting the corpses of the Demon Wolves, and then summoned the Golden Seal, smashing the remaining beasts to death.

In this brief moment, eight Qi Cultivation stage cultivators fell victim to the claws of the Demon Wolves.

Wang Hong stored the bodies of the Demon Wolves casually and continued forward.

Wu Dayong hurriedly followed suit. He was curious about how Wang Hong had dealt with the Demon Wolves earlier, but wisely refrained from asking. It involved someone's privacy and was not something to be casually inquired about.

The white Demon Wolves they just faced were challenging opponents. Even with the combined effort of the two, it would have taken a considerable amount of time to defeat them.

However, time was a luxury they couldn't afford. They needed to break through the West Gate and escape before the Demonic Beasts could react.

When the Demon Wolves lunged at him with open mouths, Wang Hong had a sudden inspiration.

The first time he was assassinated by Shadow Kill, he narrowly escaped death from a thin black needle. This needle, imbued with potent poison, couldn't be detected by his Divine Sense even after successfully advancing to the Foundation Building stage.

Therefore, after the Demon Wolves opened their mouths, he utilized the power of Space to make the black needle instantly appear in the mouth of the closest Demon Wolf. He then manipulated the flying needle to pierce directly into its head, causing the Demon Wolf to die instantly.

With the Golden Core cultivators having left and the Divine Sense of Foundation Building cultivators finding it difficult to detect the black needle, Wang Hong dared to use such a technique.

When Wang Hong arrived at the West Gate, more than half of the cultivators had gathered there. Four Golden Core cultivators had already fled far away, and behind them, ten third-tier Demonic Beasts chased, occasionally engaging in brief skirmishes.

Outside the West Gate of Jin'an City, chaos ensued between humans and Demonic Beasts. Everyone was in disarray, pushing and shoving. Instead of advancing, the crowd was gradually retreating.

Now was the best opportunity to break through. The initial distribution of Demonic Beasts around the city walls meant that only a few could arrive here promptly.

If they didn't seize this chance, when more Demonic Beasts arrived, the current group would quickly be overwhelmed by the Beast Tide.

With only Wang Hong and Wu Dayong's strength, coupled with these Qi Cultivation cultivators, breaking out of this encirclement seemed impossible.

At this moment, Wang Hong spotted Shen Jian and another Foundation Building cultivator in Qingxu Sect's Daoist Robe withdrawing from the front lines, looking somewhat worse for wear from their encounters with Demonic Beasts.

"Senior Brother Shen, how is the situation ahead?" Wang Hong hurriedly inquired.

"It's Junior Brother Wang and Wu Junior Brother! Your arrival is timely. There are nearly a thousand second-tier Demonic Beasts ahead, and it's truly beyond our capabilities! Moreover, the number of Demonic Beasts is still increasing," Shen Jian sighed.

"If we wait a while longer, the number of Demonic Beasts may grow even more, making it even more impossible to break through."

"Everyone understands the reasoning, but with the Golden Core cultivators gone, and no one in command, the remaining cultivators are scattered. Whoever charges forward risks death, while those who hold back can survive a bit longer, at least temporarily," Shen Jian said somewhat helplessly.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Hong said, "Senior Brother Shen, I have an idea. I'm not sure if it will work."

"The situation is urgent now. Whatever good plan you have, Junior Brother Wang, please speak it out," Shen Jian hastily replied.

Wang Hong glanced around and cast a soundproof barrier, enclosing the four Foundation Building cultivators within.

"The current situation is urgent, but the main pressure is ahead, and there's no influential figure guiding us. Naturally, everyone will hesitate to advance.

I have two ideas. One is that we can create pressure from behind, for example, simulate a Beast Tide attack from the rear to instill panic. We then harness that panic, lead the way west, and a significant number of people will inevitably follow.

Swift as flowing water, forceful as a drifting stone once a powerful momentum is formed, we can break through the encirclement in one go," Wang Hong proposed.

"This method is ingenious, but it carries some risk. What about your second idea, Junior Brother?" Shen Jian applauded.

Wu Dayong and the other cultivator also agreed with Shen Jian's viewpoint.

"As for the second idea, with cultivators gathering at the West Gate, Demonic Beasts are also converging in that direction. By observing on my way here, most Demonic Beasts are moving along the city walls towards this side. Although there are Demonic Beasts in other parts of the city, they are not as densely packed.

We can quietly maneuver through the city again and reach the East Gate. From there, we break out," Wang Hong quickly suggested to save time.

"Excellent! Junior Brother Wang is clever. I support the second plan!" Shen Jian declared.

"I'm in agreement!"

"Count me in too!"

The other two also expressed agreement with the second plan. Since the decision was made, they wasted no more time.

"Those willing to join us, follow along, but be prepared for life and death," Wang Hong turned to the dozens of Qi Cultivation cultivators trailing behind him.

While more people meant more strength and could help fend off a few Demonic Beasts, Wang Hong didn't want to insist and couldn't promise anything.

Among the group following him, more than twenty chose to join, unsure of their destination but having found Wang Hong reliable since following him.

In addition, over a dozen Qi Cultivation cultivators who were originally with Shen Jian also followed.

Seeing these people looking exhausted, Wang Hong took out dozens of bottles of first-tier Spirit Wine from his Storage Bag, distributed them, and ordered them to replenish their consumed Spiritual Energy immediately. 𝐟r𝗲𝚎𝚠e𝐛no𝘃𝗲𝐥.c𝗼m

As a Foundation Building cultivator, presenting some first-tier Spirit Wine was generous without being too conspicuous.

After the decision was made, the group didn't waste any more time. Without alerting others, they moved quietly through a narrow alley in the city towards the west.

Demonic Beasts roamed everywhere in the city now. They avoided disturbing them as much as possible. When necessary, they cooperated to swiftly eliminate any threats.

Without the presence of third-tier Demonic Beasts, the combined strength of the four could easily handle several second-tier Demonic Beasts.

Shen Jian was a late-stage Foundation Building cultivator, coupled with Wang Hong's strength comparable to mid-stage Foundation Building. Wu Dayong, although considered weaker among Foundation Building cultivators, was still mid-stage, and the other cultivator was also at mid-stage.

They deliberately chose secluded alleys for their route, as large groups of Demonic Beasts tended to stick to main roads.

The labyrinthine layout of the city's alleys, coupled with the limited intelligence of the Demonic Beasts, caused them to quickly lose their way once they entered smaller pathways.

Twisting and turning, some clumsy Demonic Beasts even ended up entering people's courtyards, creating chaos inside. It was often a challenge for them to find their way out.

Therefore, as a group of Demonic Beasts entered the narrow alleys, their numbers gradually decreased.

Along the way, the four of them also killed quite a few Demonic Beasts and stealthily approached the vicinity of the East Gate.

Observing that there were still a considerable number of Demonic Beasts here, some heading west, they took note of the situation.
