This was a nightmare.
For A Xia, who had been cultivating for two hundred and thirteen years, it had been a long time since he had a nightmare.
When he first embarked on the path of Immortal Cultivation, suffering was often accompanied by him. He didn't have the luck of those heaven's favored ones, so it was impossible for him to be accepted by a high-rank sect or even one of the Five Unique of the Wanxian League. It was only by chance that he was accepted into a low-rank sect. In the sect, because of his natural dark brown skin, as well as his special facial features, he was ridiculed by many of his fellow disciples for having the blood of Kunlun slaves. Once, he was greatly ostracized. His Master was also irresponsible. Not only did he ignore his predicament, he didn't even try his best to pass on the immortal path.
It was not until he accidentally showed his talent, showing his superior aptitude and perception that he was noticed by the Sect Leader, who carefully cultivated him. And he lived up to the expectation. From Qi Cultivating Stage to Foundation Establishment Stage, he successfully condensed his Xudan Stage at the age of eighty. Perhaps compared to those genius cultivators, this speed was barely passable. However, in a low-rank sect, it was already a miracle. After all, excluding the wasted time, his real cultivation time was only sixty years.
Moreover, A Xia's world was not that broad. He didn't dare to hope for the King Pill, Yuanying Stage, and so on. For a time, he achieved Xudan Stage and was flushed with success. After a few decades, when he thoroughly consolidated his Xudan Stage and his Master passed away, he would take over the position of the Sect Leader and live a carefree life for another hundred years.
However, a nightmare came and completely interrupted his happy life. A heretic cultivator who happened to pass by the mountain gate, because of a quarrel with a fellow disciple, unexpectedly came to his door, wanting to exterminate his whole sect!
That evil cultivator was a Yuanying Stage old monster. For A Xia's sect, it was like a natural disaster. They sent more than a hundred cultivators to fight back, but they were still slaughtered overnight. The green mountains and clear waters that they had been managing for more than two hundred years were turned into a hell of blood and fire … Were it not for the late arrival of the righteous cultivators from the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, A Xia himself would have been killed in that battle.
The one who saved his life was an Elder of the Beast Master School. After A Xia recovered from his injury, he had no other place to go, so he joined the Beast Master School. His cultivation base was not weak. Coupled with his desire for revenge, he cultivated with all his might. He was also favored by the Beast Master School Elder and was taught a superior heart sutra.
However, A Xia always lived in the shadow of revenge. Whenever he slept or meditated, the scene of his sect's extermination would float in his mind. Not until he cultivated the King Pill for thirty years, did he purify his primordial spirit, and successfully cultivated his dao heart completed. At the same time, although his progress was not fast, was also worthy.
At the same time, although it was not.
The sect that he first joined, although it was only at the bottom in the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, it was also a prestigious immortal cultivation sect in the local area. The authority of the sect leader was comparable to the king of a country … However, when it really encountered a disaster, it was destroyed overnight, which was a huge blow to him.
In, he, he, he, Xia had, but, he, he, he, he, he, he, a, a, but in, a. He could only continue to cultivate, hoping that one day, if he was lucky enough to reach the peak of the Immortal Path, perhaps he could find a sense of security.
Then, the Immortal Path was interrupted in front of him. His aptitude was not good. The low-level King Pill was the limit of his Immortal Cultivation. No matter how hard he tried, he could not go further.
The low-level King Pill was really an awkward position. In the Beast Master School, it was between the middle and the lower level. He had been cultivating for nearly a hundred years, and he had to make a great overdraft to achieve this result. Naturally, he would inevitably encounter some ridicule. Coupled with his unusual appearance and gloomy temperament due to his past experience, his situation was even more unbearable. Everything seemed to have returned to the first few years of his Immortal Cultivation. However, this time, there was no discerning Sect Leader to help him.
It was also at this time that, because his personal Immortal Cultivation path had come to an end, he began to serve as a beast tamer in the sect. In the Beast Master School, the spirit beasts that were trained by a special person were usually not bad. The first spirit beast that A Xia handled was a giant ape that, in just a few years, had advanced several levels and successfully transformed into a human form.
At that time, when he saw that beast's Immortal Cultivation path was smoother than his, his complex mood was indescribable. Therefore, he couldn't help but use some means. When that spirit ape transformed into a human, although its comprehensive strength had surpassed A Xia's, the fear of beast tamer in its bones could not be erased, and thus, it obeyed A Xia's words.
A Xia was not polite. He took that spirit ape deep into the dangerous place, trying to pick a spirit grass that had taken shape. He let the spirit ape risk its life to entangle the monster that was guarding the spirit grass, while he himself took the opportunity to put the spirit grass into his pocket. After that, the spirit ape was seriously injured and dying, but he refined the spirit grass into a pill. After taking it, his cultivation base advanced a level, reaching the middle-level King Pill Realm.
Thus, he suddenly understood a truth. A person's strength might not depend on his own cultivation base, but on his ability to dominate others. Just like the mortal world's emperor, with thousands of troops and horses in his hand, perhaps he himself was weaker than any of the soldiers, but he could destroy a country with a wave of his hand. Who would dare to say that he wasn't strong?
The Immortal Cultivation World was the same. As long as he could dominate those strong people, it naturally proved that he was stronger than those strong people. Wasn't the so-called strength the ability to accomplish the goal? One's own strength was strength, and the strength to dominate others was also strength! And the beast tamer identity just happened to give him the best stage to display his strength. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this. For people with limited talent, if they wanted to go further, they had to resort to all means. At the same time, he didn't squander the sect's spirit beast at will. Every time the spirit beast was sacrificed, it could always be exchanged for more benefits — after all, this was the professional skill that he relied on to survive, so he couldn't be sloppy. Therefore, the sect's Elders turned a blind eye to this.
After all, what he sacrificed were spirit beasts, not people, so it was not unacceptable.
Of course, the opposing force was not weak. Because of this, A Xia rushed to the Cloud Region from the Southern Heaven Region. If he could make a contribution in the capture of the immortal beast, the internal dispute within the sect would be reduced a lot. The path that he took would also prove to be a feasible path.
Unfortunately, he met an unexpected opponent.
When Wang Lu belittled his life's value and pursuit, his heart was indeed angry. However, it was only limited to anger. How could the idea that he had formed for decades be destroyed by someone else's words?
If you want to prove me wrong, then defeat me first. In this Immortal Cultivation World, only strength is the hard truth. And under the Ten Thousand Beasts Array, what can the few of you prove? In your dreams!
Then, a nightmare came.
A real nightmare was not simply throwing a person into endless despair, making him powerless to struggle. Instead, it constantly gave you hope, and then shattered that hope, making you suddenly look back and find that everything you've done was in vain.
What A Xia had experienced was exactly such a nightmare.
When the silver flying boat appeared, he was just surprised by the novelty of the opponent's card and subconsciously didn't pay too much attention to it.
A mere cloud wave boat, in the face of the Five Broken Veins Array and the Ten Thousand Beasts Array, was just a flash in the pan. Its fragile structure could not withstand the impact of the spirit beasts, and its speed was not fast enough to get rid of the encirclement of the flying beasts. It could be said that this was not a wise choice.
Then, he saw the scene of the silver flying boat crashing into a mixture of flesh and blood.
Despite the appearance of the cloud wave boat, whether it was covered with refined cloud silver or the explosive power system, it proved that it was by no means an ordinary cloud wave boat. Thus, A Xia immediately changed the array and did his best to deal with it.
At first, he summoned the vast sea of beasts, but he found out that the low-level spirit beasts could not effectively cover the target. The cloud wave boat accurately uprooted the spirit beasts one by one from the array.
Then, reminded by the red wolf, he used the smell of the long-haired beast to destroy the opponent's olfactory detection. This indeed caused the cloud wave boat to pause for a moment.
Just when he thought that his trick worked, the cloud wave boat moved again, and the silver trajectory almost made him crush the array.
In this critical moment, the red wolf promptly made its move. Although it knew that the opponent's flying boat was mostly aimed at the red wolf, it still resolutely made its move. Because before the battle, it had received A Xia's promise that as long as it made a contribution in the battle, he could lift the shackles on its body and obtain true freedom.
For freedom, the red wolf was willing to risk its life.
It also once saw the hope of victory. The head-on collision with the silver flying boat proved that this flying boat was by no means omnipotent. At least, in the face of a King Pill level opponent, it would appear powerless. The red wolf could be considered as a first-class expert in the King Pill level, even better than the cat girl Ling Yan. Under the cover of the Ten Thousand Beasts Array, perhaps...
Then, just as A Xia raised his hope, a deeper despair came.
The silver flying boat changed its shape. A turret was erected in the front, from which it spewed out the destructive energy of thunder and fire, burning the red wolf into a sorry state. At the same time, the nimbleness of the flying boat didn't diminish. In the valley, it was like a lightning refracting back and forth, constantly looking for the weakness of the Ten Thousand Beasts Array, tearing and destroying it bit by bit. No one could stop its track of crushing everything.
The flying boat's ram was indeed broken, but it was still easy to crush the lower rank spirit beasts. As for the higher rank spirit beasts with sturdy bodies, it naturally had the turret to take care of them.
The turret that rose from the front of the flying boat was like a ruthless sword, again and again tearing and destroying the Ten Thousand Beasts Array. Its firepower was not particularly powerful, but it was still a disaster for low-level Xudan Stage spirit beasts. Moreover, it spewed out thunder and fire endlessly, as if it would never get tired. The red wolf tried to approach the flying boat several times to stop it, but it was shot by the turret one after another, leaving it bruised and wounded.
Thus, A Xia did not hesitate to gather the remaining defensive spirit beasts in the array. Through the Five Mountain Broken Veins Array, they blocked the path of the flying boat, trying to stop that silver lightning.
More than ten earth-armored giant beasts, as well as the swift as the wind, formed a line of defense, covering several key spirit beasts behind them. Whether it was the flying boat itself or the thunder and fire turret, it was impossible for it to easily tear such a line of defense.
When the line of defense was formed, A Xia's heart was slightly relieved. He thought that the flying boat would use its advantage of agility to disrupt the array. For this reason, he did not hesitate to burn his primordial spirit to refine the array, which sped up the action of the spirit beasts a bit. Finally, he was able to complete the line of defense.
Then, in his horrified eyes, the flying boat's turret spewed out a flying sword.
It was a magical treasure level water element flying sword. The flying sword left a wave of water in the air, and then it hit the giant rock beast. The flying sword broke into pieces, and the hill-like giant beast melted like snow under the scorching sun … A huge gap suddenly appeared in the line of defense!
At the same time, a mocking voice sounded from the silver flying boat.
"We've killed the enemy, now we're looking for the next target!"
Wang Lu said to the spirit beasts who were shocked out of fear.
"Tsk, tsk, have you ever seen a gold coin bullet?"
Then, magic treasures rained down. This time, not only the Giant Rock Beast, but even the Demon Wolf was within range of attack. Although the Demon Wolf's body was tough, it was still a dead end under the rain of magic treasures.
It was not afraid of death, but it didn't want to die in vain. It immediately gave up the line of defense, leaving behind more than ten giant rock beasts and the few remaining core spirit beasts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Array, choosing to save its own life first. It was a demonic wolf, a natural warrior, and also a natural hunter. When it wanted to run, few people could catch up with it. When it wanted to hide, few people could find it...
However, the silver flying boat had no intention to let it go.
"You've offended the Abbot, and you still want to leave? How could it be that easy!"
Without Quan Zouhua's sense of smell, the red wolf's magical power was also perfectly concealed. Relying solely on the Void Spirit Root's divination technique, it was impossible to catch it. However, Wang Lu still had a last resort.
"Liu Li, follow your intuition and fire."
"Mm!"
Thereupon, a high-rank magical treasure level fire element flying sword went straight to the sky.
Under the intuition of the Brilliant Sword Heart, the demonic wolf, whose characteristics have long been memorized by Liu Li, had nowhere to hide. It wholeheartedly fled. Seeing that it had already escaped from the valley, and A Xia was not far away from it, it never thought that its position would be locked. In a panic, the flying sword pierced through its tail and came out from its mouth, taking away almost all of its vitality.
The last scene in its line of sight was A Xia's almost distorted face.
In the valley, the sea of beasts dissipated, and the five mountains returned to their original position.
Steam rose from the silver flying boat, from which came Wang Lu's voice.
"Feel good?"
