Ye Jinji's hammer-shaped talisman grew huge in the air, and then, with extremely heavy and fierce force, it slammed into a group of soul-eating maggots that blocked their path.
The five-meter-square hammer surface covered a large area, leaving these hissing maggots with nowhere to escape.
"Boom", a loud noise came from the cave hall, and a huge hammer hit the ground hard. The powerful impact force created a circle of ripples on the ground.
After the air wave passed, the smoke and dust dispersed, and a huge hammer mark five meters square appeared on the ground. All the soul-eating maggots inside had been crushed into a slurry.
At the same time, Ye Wujin drew a nine-character nine-moon spell with two lines of gold and earth in his hand and attacked a group of soul-eating maggots approaching from the side.
He used a spell to summon a puppet. Once it was released, the spiritual energy of gold and earth gathered together crazily, and a huge bison wearing golden armor appeared in the cave hall.
The giant bull was about four meters tall, with golden light in its eyes and a pair of crescent-shaped golden horns that looked extremely sharp. It leaped out of the air, and after landing, it spurted out of its nostrils, and two streams of golden air shot to the ground, instantly creating two deep pits.
This talisman is different from the beast-summoning talisman that uses demon pills. Although the giant bull looks lifelike, it does not have much ability to take the initiative and must be controlled by the operator at all times. It also has a weak self-repair ability and will collapse if it receives too much damage.
Ye Wujin controlled the giant bull and rushed towards a group of soul-eating maggots. The bull's huge hooves trampled on the soul-eating maggots, causing great damage to them.
The golden bull trampled on the ground and plowed it with its horns, cutting the clusters of soul-eating maggots into pieces.
Although the sharp golden air spewed out of its mouth and nose can also hurt the Soul-Eating Maggots, the effect is not very good. After all, the Soul-Eating Maggots are least afraid of this kind of spiritual attack.
The giant bull's bravery immediately attracted a large circle of soul-eating maggots, clearing the right side of the five people.
The soul-eating maggots in front were also destroyed by Ye Wujin with his talisman. Now there was only a group of soul-eating maggots left that were attacking everyone.
The soul-eating maggots behind them did not catch up immediately due to the distance. Instead, they were attracted by the people who came in earlier and the three mole wolves.
Seeing that the soul-eating maggots on the left were about to rush in front of the five people, Ye Wujin controlled the talisman to attack the front while controlling the giant bull to intercept the soul-eating maggots on the right. He was unable to take care of the left side at all. The three elders all took out their talismans and wanted to attack.
“Don’t use your magic weapons. They can’t hurt them, and once they are entangled by them, they will quickly lose control.
If you have talisman weapons, use them. Soul Devouring Maggots are much more fragile than ordinary monsters. You should be able to hurt them by hacking with talisman weapons."
Ye Wujin shouted to the three elders.
The three elders and Ye Li were all slightly stunned, and then immediately took out their own talisman weapons. However, including Ye Li, most people only carried long daggers with shorter blades, which had limited effects when facing these soul-eating maggots.
Only the talisman weapon in Elder Gan's hand is a long red sword, which is more suitable for combat.
Since the four of them only had to defend the left side, they simply stood in a line and worked together to use the talisman weapons in their hands to resist the attacks of the soul-eating maggots.
However, after a round of slashing by their talisman soldiers, except Ye Li, none of the others did much to hurt the soul-eating maggots and could only barely force them away a little.
The spiritual energy on the talisman weapon will be devoured by the opponent almost the moment it comes into contact with the soul-eating maggots, so the talisman weapon is unable to exert the sharp attributes brought by the rune formation on it.
The four of them can only use the sharp blades of the talisman weapons themselves to cut the soul-eating maggots, which places very high demands on the strength of the users.
Although the Soul-Eating Maggots have relatively low defense, they are still monsters after all, and their fur is much tougher than that of ordinary wild beasts. After the talisman weapons in their hands turn into ordinary iron, their attack power is sharply reduced, making it difficult to hurt them.
Ye Li looked at the four people and immediately said to Elder Gan: "Elder Gan, let's exchange the talisman soldiers. I will take the lead in the attack."
After the last round of attacks, there were only a lot of broken soul-eating maggots in front of Ye Li. After all, his physical strength far exceeded that of the talisman masters of the same level. Even with a long dagger made of ordinary iron, he could rely on his powerful force to cut off the soul-eating maggots.
Elder Gan next to him also noticed the situation here. After hearing Ye Li's words, he did not object and immediately exchanged the talisman weapons in his hands with him.
After Ye Li replaced the talisman weapon with a long sword, the lethality immediately increased.
Driven by the powerful strength of his body, every swing of the long sword brought about a sharp whistling sound, and a moment later, a large pile of broken soul-eating maggots fell in front of him.
However, these soul-eating maggots have extremely strong vitality. Even if they are broken into two pieces, they are not dead yet. The two halves of the body begin to form a new soul-eating maggot each like an earthworm.
Moreover, more and more soul-eating maggots burst out from the cave ceiling and the surrounding walls. They began to swarm towards Ye Li and the other four in groups like a tide.
The large ball of soul-eating maggots that had previously wrapped the middle-aged man and the three mole wolves also began to quickly decompose. Countless soul-eating maggots began to join the tide of troops, rushing from behind the five people.
The middle-aged man and three mole wolves in the soul-eating maggot ball have now all turned into mummies. The blood, body fluids, and spiritual essence in their bodies have been instantly sucked clean by the soul-eating maggots.
Although Ye Li's side is powerful, he can only cut with weapons. Not only is the efficiency very low, but it is also not comprehensive.
Under the tide-like attack of the soul-eating maggots, his defense was about to collapse.
The five people had just been defending and running away, but now they have all stopped and can only stand where they are to defend.
Ye Wujin released two giant bulls in a short period of time. Although his strength had reached the stage of divine descent, the giant bulls still could not last too long in the group of soul-eating maggots. It would not take long before the soul-eating maggots devoured them and their spiritual energy collapsed.
Ye Wujin could rush out by himself, but he couldn't leave Ye Li and the other three alone.
"Brother Wu Jin, hurry up and leave. You can definitely get out with your own strength. Don't worry about us!"
Elder Shan had a determined expression on his face and shouted towards Ye Wujin.
Ye Wujin bit his teeth and controlled the giant bull and the giant hammer to madly crush and kill the soul-eating maggots around them. However, it was like a drop in the bucket, and he alone could not protect the other four people.
Ye Li's defense was about to collapse. He had already exerted his physical strength to the limit. Under the high-intensity chopping, his arms felt slightly sore.
