Chapter 359 Practice Time

Bai Rouyun took a look behind the group. At a certain point in time, the screeching sounds of the cicadas had become constant, neither increasing nor decreasing.

This caused the group to almost acknowledge it as being a part of the surrounding sounds.

However, as an adventurer who had been traveling through countless life and death situations, she did not dare to let go of her vigilance, and thus she kept an eye on the path behind them.

Even so, the sound appeared to have gotten stuck almost at the same time as Xiao Hua and Xiao Mao engaged in battle with the armadillo. It was as if something had blocked them, and she was able to focus on the battle in front and explain it.

"I have blocked them." Just as Bai Rouyun was wondering what had stopped them from behind, Li Moyun's voice sounded in her ears. He had leaned down and whispered so quietly that only she heard his voice.

Glancing at the man by her side, Bai Rouyun once more acknowledged that his strength had become unfathomable, but also felt very relieved and secure.

Although this current situation was very similar to her past life, it was different in many ways. She felt that although there was some danger involved with their expedition, she had faith in her husband to protect their little family.

"Are you going to remove them, or wait for the current battle to end, and let the entire family train with the cicadas instead?" Seeing that Li Moyun was controlling the insects behind, but not killing them, she wanted to know what his plans were. Especially, now that she had seen how they had described and lectured the children on the battle in front.

"It was my plan." Li Moyun knew that these kids were important to his wife, so he did not mind training them. The current world was not a peaceful place, at all, so they needed to learn how to fight and keep themselves alive, so now that there was a swarm of weaker enemies at hand, he was definitely going to use them with the most benefits.

Even though the young woman loved her children, she also knew that they needed to be able to protect themselves, so she strongly supported Li Moyun's idea of training them.

"If possible, try to take a part of the swarm first, and then slowly increase the number of cicadas that attack." Bai Rouyun felt that the children should be able to handle the entire swarm, but instead of throwing them into the midst of it all, it was better to keep releasing more and more, until they all vanished. This way, the children would have more time to adapt and also learn.

Xiao Hua and Xiao Mao had gained the upper hand against the Armadillo. Although it was a battle of attrition, the beast was slowly weakening, and the blood was streaming down in steady streams, countless wounds covering the entire body.

The natural armor was also broken in many places, and although it was still able to provide a little protection, it was nothing compared to before.

"Try and keep as much energy as possible, we still have an enemy waiting for us coming from behind." Bai Rouyun called out, and both Xiao Mao and Xiao Hua suddenly noticed the screeching sounds once more.

Both of them had been focused on the current battle, and they had forgotten that there were other kinds of dangers coming their way. Now that they were being reminded, they suddenly realized that even when this Armadillo was defeated, other enemies would be waiting for them.

"Hurry, hurry!" Jiaojiao and Xiao Jin were suddenly energetic. Although they had enjoyed watching the battle in front, they were much more eager for acting on their own. n(/0velBIn

"Release a few already." Bai Rouyun could see that the small ones also wanted to fight, so she quickly gave a message to Li Moyun.

"Enemies incoming; Xiao Mao and Xiao Hua, the two of you keep focusing on the Armadillo. Get it completely dead before paying attention to anything else. The rest of you, make sure that the incoming cicadas does not reach Xiao Mao and Xiao Hua. They need focus to deal with their current battle."

Looking at the eagerness and the motivation that all the kids were showing, Bai Rouyun was happy to see what performance they could display.

Bai Rouyun and Li Moyun both stepped aside, and a small group of cicadas arrived from behind. There were not many, compared to the large cloud behind, but around one hundred cicadas still advanced rapidly.

Xiao Jin and Xiao Bao were both spirits, and neither of them used weapons when attacking. Xiao Jin, as a cauldron spirit, had great affinity with various ores and metals, and she was able to shape the minerals in the ground into attacks, using anything in her surroundings.

Xiao Bao was the spirit of the Primal Chaos Pagoda, and while he did not have the natural affinity with metal that Xiao Bao had, he had a much better sense of the Heaven and Earth Essence, and was able to shape the air with energy alone, making energy attacks as he wished. Anyone with a conscious mind would be hit by this kind of attack.

While the two small spirits were happy using their energy like this, Jiaojiao was different. Her body was her greatest weapon, and although her hands appeared human, the fingers were powerful, and the nails sharp. Her ability to squash the cicadas was surprising, and Bai Rouyun could not help but raise an eyebrow in admiration of the cute little girl with hands drenched in blood.
