Chapter 338: Chapter 334: Rushing to Assist Jianmen Pass
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaoyun’s gaze swept over the crowd, and he spoke, “Brother Hua Kui, you are in charge of protecting the people. The rest of you will accompany me to Jianmen Pass.”
“Yes.” A middle-aged man with a full face of beard immediately responded.
“We are at the elder’s disposal.” The rest echoed one after another.
Without being encumbered by ordinary folk, Bai Xiaoyun and his party moved at a much faster pace, covering a distance of three or four miles in the blink of an eye.
Jianmen Pass, built into the heart of the Witch Mountain Range, is a fortified stronghold flanked by cliffs on either side. The city, comprised of giant stacked stones and towering over hundreds of feet high, is easy to defend but difficult to conquer.
When Shen Luo and his group arrived, they saw hordes of Demon Wolves attacking the city, thousands of wolf corpses piled up around the city walls, already forming layers of corpse mounds tens of feet high.
Even more Demon Wolves trampled over their kin’s bodies, striving to climb the city walls.
Hovering above the city, tens of thousands of blood bats blotted out the sky, their flapping sounding like rolling thunder.
Shen Luo was all too familiar with these two types of monsters, especially the Demon Wolves; he’d faced them before in his dream venture into Feng Chi City and had slain quite a few alongside Yu Meng.
As he scanned the field of battle, he indeed spotted numerous giant black wolves and elusive Qing wolves within the dense wolf pack, although he could not discern any wolf-headed humanoids he encountered before.
The blood bats flying high above were similar to the ghost bats from the Hidden Wind Valley, but larger in size. Resembling wild boars with their heads and tusks that glowed a dark, crimson light, their wings spanned about a dozen feet when fully extended.
One group charged upwards from below, and the other swooped downwards from high above, their tactics complemented each other well.
On the city walls, about a dozen people were continuously using talismans or symbol-imbued arrows to suppress wave after wave of the approaching Demon Wolves. Their attack speed was constrained, and the Demon Wolves’ offensive line gradually neared the city walls.
In the sky above, giant fireballs would occasionally explode, evidently the work of monks deploying offensive arts against the blood bats, and sword radiant raising into the sky, swooshing into the army of blood bats.
“The city hasn’t fallen yet. We should lend a hand,” Bai Xiaoyun said, his eyes resolute.
Just as he finished his sentence, the battlefield in front of them suddenly shifted.
From the midst of the blood bats hovering over the city walls of Jianmen Pass, clouds of blood-red fog emerged, engulfing all the blood bats within. The fog converged into a massive blood cloud.
Though no blood bats could be seen within the blood cloud, countless red sparks flickered like rumbling thunder.
In the blink of an eye, a torrential downpour erupted from the bloody cloud—an actual blood rain—that covered only Jianmen Pass’s city walls and nowhere else.
Upon a closer look, Shen Luo realized that the rain falling from the sky was indeed blood-red. Shortly after the rain had started, panicked screams could be heard from the city walls. Subsequently, seven or eight figures dashed out from the city walls wildly and tumbled down into the pack of Demon Wolves below.
The surrounding Wolf Monsters immediately swarmed them, shredding their bodies to pieces and devouring them clean.
“Let’s go.”
Bai Xiaoyun’s stern voice echoed as he leaped up, soaring into the sky like an arrow towards the city walls. Worried, Shen Luo instructed Shen Yu before activating a flying talisman to join Bai Xiaoyun in the sky.
The rest of the group also charged forward, plunging into the horde of Wolf Monsters.
Lu Yong, whether intentionally or unintentionally, lingered at the back of the crowd. He looked up at Shen Luo and Bai Xiaoyun, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, before leisurely moving towards the city gate.
As Shen Luo was chasing after Bai Xiaoyun, he suddenly stopped halfway.
He saw at the corner of the city wall, there was a middle-aged man dressed in a green Daoist robe fiddling with something like a compass. Behind him, a vague blue light flashed, and a wolf had unknowingly climbed onto the city wall.
Moreover, on the back of that blue wolf, a wolf-headed humanoid with a bare upper body was riding. He held a bone spear in his hand, ready to pierce the Daoist-robed man with a single attack.
Without hesitating, Shen Luo instantly activated a water-repelling technique, surrounding his body with a light blue glow before diving straight into the bloody rain.
As the rain lashed his body, streaks of white smoke emerged, and the corrosive smell entered Shen Luo’s nose and mouth. However, there were no abnormalities on the glowing light curtain of the Water-repelling technique which put Shen Luo’s mind at ease.
He dropped swiftly towards the corner of the city wall, as a water arrow shot out from his hand. At the end of the arrow hung a Thunderfall talisman, aimed directly at the back of the heart of the wolf-headed man.
While this arrow could not stop the wolf-headed man’s attack directly, if he only focused on the attack and did not defend himself, he would inevitably be killed by the Thunderfall talisman after killing the Daoist-robed man.
As expected, the wolf-headed man valued his own life. Just as his spear was about to pierce the Daoist-robed man, he turned the spearhead around to directly stab the water arrow.
A loud “boom” echoed!
The Thunderfall talisman exploded, a thick arm-like snowy white thunder light burst out and exploded at the tip of the spearhead.
At the same time, a semi-circular light curtain emerged from the tip of the wolf-headed man’s spear.
The white electric light fell on it, making a sizzling sound, wildly colliding with it, but ultimately failed to penetrate it.

However, the moment the electric light dissipated, Shen Luo had already landed, raising a fist to smash it towards the face of the wolf-headed man.
The wolf-headed man’s eyes flashed a crimson light, a chilling smirk emerged on the corners of his mouth. He raised his spearhead, aiming directly at Shen Luo’s heart.
With the Huangting Technique active, Shen Luo twisted his body and easily avoided the spear tip, sliding down the bone spear with his body close to it, his fist packing an enormous momentum hammered down.
Not in the least bit frightened, the wolf-headed man raised a fist to meet Shen Luo’s attack, their fists collided heavily.
A loud “boom” echoed!
Their fists collided, causing the city wall to tremble, an invisible wave of shock burst forth, pulsating towards the surrounding area.
A mournful cry sounded, it was the blue wolf under the wolf-headed man. Unable to withstand this tremendous force, all its limbs broke and collapsed to the ground, its spine also simultaneously crushed, dying on the spot.
The wolf-headed man didn’t care about this, landing on his feet immediately after. He lifted the spear abruptly, sweeping it towards Shen Luo.
Shen Luo raised an arm, blocking the wolf-headed man’s attack directly. With a gauge on his opponent’s strength, he knew the man was at the most in the mid-stage of Soul Condensation, only relying on the strength of his physical body to resist until now.
He was slightly distracted by the Daoist robed man behind the wolf monster, feeling exasperated. That guy, even at this point, still had his back towards them, fiddling with something unknowingly.
Just then, the wolf-headed man suddenly let out a shout, his crimson eyes gushing out two streams of black and red mist. Like two streams of water, they slithered down, intertwining up his bone spear.
“Demonic Qi…”
