Chapter 2882 Entering The Canyon
Jared shot the Three Bandits a glance, prompting them to jump into the air and go into hiding. Viola and Vasily had their weapons ready as they stood inside the arcane array and stared anxiously at the demon beasts that were charging toward them.
“Attack!” Viola yelled when the demon beasts got close enough. She fired countless wind blades from her palms, instantly slaying the demon beasts that were in front of her.
Vasily, too, swung his fists at the incoming demon beasts. Like cannons, they sent two demon beasts flying upon impact.
Although the demon beasts were not powerful, they were incredibly large in numbers. Viola and Vasily were able to kill a few in an instant, but it barely did anything to reduce their numbers. The demon beasts roared as they continued charging forward.
“Let’s fall back!” Viola shouted as she leaped into the air and sprinted in the other direction. Vasily nodded and quickly followed behind her. Thanks to the charms they had on their bodies, the arcane array moved along with them.
Like water pouring out of a floodgate, the demon beasts stampeded out of the canyon. The Three Bandits shuddered when they saw the seemingly endless wave of demon beasts that kept coming out of the canyon.
About dozens of minutes later, demon beasts finally stopped coming out of the canyon. Realizing that his chance had come, Jared led the Three Bandits straight into the canyon.
It was extremely peaceful inside with most of the demon beasts gone, but Jared knew it wasn’t completely clear. There must still be some demon beasts in here, and extremely powerful ones, too!
“You three need to be careful! Work together to steal the ice soul fragment, and get out of here the moment you get it. Do not stick around for anyone!” Jared reminded them. The three of them nodded and slowly turned invisible as they started concealing themselves.
Jared whipped out Dragonslayer Sword and activated Golem Body as well as the Power of Three. Even the draconic essence was glowing brightly. He knew that he couldn’t afford to let his guard down, or he could very well end up dead.
A furious roar echoed throughout the canyon as Jared and the Three Bandits went deeper inside. The ice bear then came charging at Jared while roaring at the top of its lungs.
Behind that ice bear were hundreds of demon beasts, each of them at least at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm.
Jared felt a shiver down his spine when he saw the sheer amount of powerful demon beasts in front of him. Even so, he wasn’t about to give up so easily.
“Burn!” Jared yelled as he raised Dragonslayer Sword, igniting it on the spot. Jared knew that demon beasts, in general, were afraid of fire, so demonic fire was probably his best bet at defeating them.
Sure enough, the ice bear’s eyes were instantly filled with fear the moment it saw the flames on Dragonslayer Sword. It was as though it could sense the power of the demonic fire on Dragonslayer Sword.
Despite that, the ice bear did not back off. Instead, it let out a deafening roar, causing the icicles in the canyon to fall on Jared.
The demon beasts that it was commanding, too, swarmed toward Jared at the same time. As though to test Jared’s strength, the ice bear sat back and commanded them from the rear.
Jared looked up at the incoming ice pillars. He swung Dragonslayer Sword and fired a burst of flames at them. The ice pillars instantly melted and evaporated upon coming into contact with the demonic fire.
