There were just too many Blood Mosquitoes outside of the city, and they just kept coming.

Initially, the cultivators only thought that there were 30 to 50 Foundation Establishment Blood Mosquitoes. However, as they killed them one after another, new Blood Mosquitoes of equal power appeared again!

Apparently, the Blood Mosquitoes’ numbers were way beyond their imagination.

Shen Tian took a deep breath and thought it was time to slowly reveal his true power.

He made a hand seal, and the Lotus Shooting Gun flew out. The gun made a few circles in the air, and dozens of Blood Mosquitoes dropped dead on the ground.

Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had created this Lotus Shooting Gun, and it was very special. Not only did it contain Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talismans and Iron Essences in it, but it could be used as a flying sword to kill enemies too. It was almost impossible to find another weapon with such power on other Golden Core cultivators.

Shen Tian had much higher cultivation than the monsters, as well as a Spirit artifact. As such, the Blood Mosquitoes could only be tortured by him despite their numbers.

However, as Shen Tian killed more Blood Mosquitoes, he started to frown deeper.

The Mosquito Demon was still hidden in the dark, observing everything.

Honestly, Shen Tian was in a hurry as the sun would rise in just a couple of hours.

Then, an idea came into his mind, and he slowed down the rate he was throwing the Lightning Explosion Talismans.

At the same time, he controlled his Spirit Qi to allow his Azure Dragon Armor to look dimmer. He staggered toward the edge of the city wall and supported his weight with his hand on the wall. He looked very pale and was greatly exhausted.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators beside him were very worried. “Immortal Senior, you should take a break.”

“Yes, that’s right. You are our last hope!”

“We will guard the fortress for now. Please get some rest first!”

“The Mosquito Demon is not here yet. You need to preserve your energy!”

“Leave it to us, Immortal Senior! We will stop all the Blood Mosquitoes!”

...

Shen Tian nodded and slowly sat down with a pile of Spirit Stones. He cast his Lotus Shooting Gun every few minutes to attack the Blood Mosquitoes.

The mosquitoes had a very fast response speed, so the attacks from normal Foundation Establishment cultivators mostly missed. As for the Qi Refinement guards’ arrows, they were even less threatening for them.

Contrary, Shen Tian was so accurate that his gun never missed a single target.

One Foundation Establishment Blood Mosquito would meet its death with every shot Shen Tian fired. The black Lotus Shooting Gun was soon dyed red by the mosquitoes’ blood. Nonetheless, the more Shen Tian attacked, the paler his face turned.

There was a limit to the amount of Dharmic powers and Spirit Qi in a cultivator.

Many sects would let the weaker cultivators attack their powerful targets first. This could weaken the target so that the opponent could not have the full power when they launched the main attack.

Shen Tian wanted the Mosquito Demon to believe that he was exhausted from the fight with the Blood Mosquitoes. He was still holding three Lightning Explosion Talismans, but he was too ‘tired’ to use them. The Azure Dragon Armor also started to disappear slowly at the same time.

Shen Tian looked like he was at his limit, so the Blood Mosquitoes stopped their suicide attacks and made a path in the middle. Then, a huge Blood Mosquito appeared among them.

There were three sets of wings on its back, and the generated wind was incredibly strong!

It looked at Black Mountain City before staring at Shen Tian with its eyes.

Everyone in the city felt despair after seeing the Mosquito Demon, especially the Foundation Establishment cultivators. They could feel that the demon had gotten much stronger now.

How did it manage to do it in such a short duration? It has the strength of a Golden Core cultivator now!

Initially, Immortal Senior could handle the demon without a problem. However, he was so exhausted now!

Who else could they depend on to stop this blood-sucking monster?

The mosquito looked down at all the people and spoke in the human language.

“I’m back! I’ll take my revenge! All of you need to die!”

It looked at the Azure Dragon Array and scoffed.

It opened its mouth, revealing a red spear, which looked like the mosquito’s proboscis. It was evidently a special weapon forged by its blood.

It was common practice for many demons to use their body parts as models for their weapons. However, no one could understand why this Blood Mosquito Demon had a special weapon. It was merely at Qi Refinement a few weeks ago!

How could it have forged a special weapon and reached Core Formation in such a short time? Was it one of the Demon race’s geniuses? Was it having fun with them now?

Before they could obtain an answer, the demon started attacking the array. The spear had nomological powers, and it was more terrifying than sword kinesis.

When it touched the protective shield, a hole was torn immediately. The Divine Lightning tried to break the spear but failed, and in but an instant, the Blood Mosquito was inside the array formation!

After it entered the city, it transformed into a red-robed man with the bloody spear in hand and smirked at Shen Tian.

“Not bad. Not bad. You are powerful for a Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, humans are too weak!

“You guys have more privileges than us but are way more stupid. Why did you waste so many Lightning Explosion Talismans just to save those useless men? What a waste! All these men are my loots! No one is going to escape!”

Then, the man said in a threatening voice, “You will be the first!”

He turned into a red shadow and went for Shen Tian.

The other Foundation Establishment cultivators tried to stop the demon, but they were too slow.

The man appeared in front of Shen Tian in less than a second. His spear was an inch away from Shen Tian, and it was going to penetrate him at any moment.

At that moment, Shen Tian opened his eyes, and his Lotus Shooting Gun blocked the attack in the nick of time.

“Still wanna struggle?”

The Blood Mosquito Demon scoffed before waving his spear and smacking it on the Lotus Shooting Gun. In the next instant, he felt something was wrong, but it was too late.

A lotus flower suddenly appeared on the Lotus Shooting Gun’s tip, while a green vine shot out from underground and grabbed on the demon’s legs tightly. What’s more, the lotus flower shot out an incredibly fast object!

Nonetheless, the Blood Mosquito Demon reacted quickly and managed to block the laser-like attack with his spear!

Clang!

The Blood Mosquito Demon knew something was not right after stopping the attack.

This Penetration Weapon Pin’s power was way beyond his imagination. After blocking the first pin, the demon’s entire body was shaking, and his grip on the spear loosened.

To his surprise, the lotus flower started spinning again and shot out another pin!

Damn! What kind of weapon is this? It can reload so fast? So unfair!

The Blood Mosquito Demon focused and prepared to block the second attack.

It’s okay. If I can block one, I can block the second one too!

Unfortunately, the Blood Mosquito Demon fell in despair in the next second as he saw Shen Tian had a stack of Lightning Explosion Talismans in his hand!

Shen Tian smiled and said, “You... are... in... my... range~”

Boom!

All the talisman flew out and exploded at the same time. The place was set aflame in a second, and many body parts were strewn all over the floor.

The initially astonished cultivators were overjoyed when they processed what happened.

However, Shen Tian knew that it was far from over—the Blood Mosquitoes were still outside of the city!
