Among the four of them, Ye Ziyu was the weakest. She was at the back of the group and would occasionally summon her sword embryo to help Lu Xiaotian and the others neutralize the violent attacks of the Wooden Bull Demons. However, Lu Xiaotian discovered that every time they killed a Wooden Bull Demon, Ye Ziyu would find a way to retrieve a sparkling and translucent egg-sized green bead from the Wooden Bull Demon's body.
It was not difficult to repel the Wooden Bull Demons, but it was extremely difficult to kill them. Lu Xiaotian, Mo Yuyan, and Shu Tiance were among the strongest Divine Transformation Stage cultivators. However, after a fierce battle, they only managed to kill four or five of them. Even the spiritual fire controlled by Little Fire Crow did not cause too much substantial damage to the Wooden Bull Demons even though it burned their wooden armor into black ash. However, these Wooden Bull Demons seemed to care about their appearances. Compared to being injured, their charred wooden armor was even more enraging. When they went berserk, the impact was even stronger than before. Lu Xiaotian hurriedly put away the unwilling Little Fire Crow. It seemed that Little Fire Crow's spiritual fire was not always successful.
Lu Xiaotian only managed to capture the primordial spirits of two Wooden Bull Demons despite his busy schedule. After all, the group was fighting and retreating at the same time. The impact of the Wooden Bull Demons was too great and did not give Lu Xiaotian much time.
These Wooden Bull Demons also had an extremely strong recovery ability. Not long after they were injured, their wounds would slowly heal. Even Lu Xiaotian, a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator, could not help but gasp in amazement.
The group fought and retreated at the same time. They retreated into a tall and dense forest and occupied a piece of sloping land. With the help of the natural terrain and the Hemlock Spirit Trees that were several feet in diameter, they were able to block the attacks of the Wooden Bull Demons.
When Lu Xiaotian and the others were about to rest, they suddenly heard Ye Ziyu say, "Kill as many of these Wooden Bull Demons as possible. I need the green beads in their bodies."
"Alright!" Lu Xiaotian didn't object to this. As a Deity Transformation Stage monster, the materials on the Skeletal Wooden Ox's body were quite valuable. But that was only secondary. What Lu Xiaotian wanted was its soul so that he could further cultivate the Soul Fusion Technique.
As Lu Xiaotian rushed out, he suddenly received Ye Ziyu's voice transmission. "I need at least ten of them. It would be best if you collected some as well."
"Why?" Lu Xiaotian was a little suspicious.
"You're the same as me. You've cultivated that sword technique." Ye Ziyu sighed.
A thought flashed through Lu Xiaotian's mind. Could it be that Ye Ziyu had a way to conceal the aura of the Sword Embryo in her body? The more Lu Xiaotian thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Otherwise, given Ye Ziyu's status as the daughter of the City Lord, she would not have to worry about not having enough spiritual items to level up. Even if it was a trial, she would not have to travel such a long distance to come to Sorrowful Valley. There was definitely a better place for her to go. She had probably come to Sorrowful Valley for another reason. The only reasonable explanation was the Sword Embryo in her body. Even though Ye Ziyu was the daughter of the City Lord of Yuan Spirit City and no one would dare to touch her if she stayed in Yuan Spirit City, it was impossible for Ye Ziyu to stay in Yuan Spirit City her entire life.
Once she left, the situation would be like this time. Even if Baili Fei and Han Chun Xiu, the two Divine Illusionary realm experts escorted her, they would still be surrounded by danger. Once the Sword Embryo devoured the Sword Embryo, there was no turning back. This Sword Embryo was incomparably domineering and he was helpless against it. However, a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure like the Lord Yap might have a way.
"Alright." Lu Xiaotian gave a brief reply to Ye Ziyu. Hearing that there was a way to deal with the Sword Embryo, Lu Xiaotian was overjoyed. Carrying the Sword Embryo with him was like having a fishbone stuck in his throat. Once he left Yuan Spirit City, he would also feel precarious. He wouldn't even know who was his friend or foe. Just like how Yang Feng had used him this time.
Having made up his mind, Lu Xiaotian's charging speed increased significantly. Clang. The Fangtian Halberd struck the head of a Wooden Bull Demon. The tyrannical force sent the Wooden Bull Demon crashing into the trunk of the huge Hemlock Spirit Tree behind it. The relatively weak part of its abdomen was exposed. A green shadow flashed and three green spikes pierced its abdomen. It was Shu Tiance who had acted at the right time. However, even with its physical body, the Wooden Bull Demon's defense was extremely strong. Although the three extremely sharp green spikes had pierced a small part of its abdomen. It was as if they had been stuck in a thick Spirit Tree, unable to advance any further.
However, the Wooden Bull Demon that had been pierced let out a miserable squeal like a pig being slaughtered. Lu Xiaotian's body leapt forward, his halberd smashing directly onto the green awl that was embedded in its heart. The spike immediately pierced through its body. The Wooden Bull Demon's body started to twitch violently as its life force gradually drained away.
"Young Lady Yu Yan, connect!" Shu Tiance waved a small green banner in his hand and a green vortex appeared like a whip. It coiled around a Mid Deity Transformation Stage Wooden Bull Demon and flipped it over.
The golden-armored knight rushed forward and stabbed the Mid Deity Transformation Stage Wooden Bull Demon to death with his golden spear. At the same time, Mo Yu swung her golden spear and threw the bull's corpse towards Ye Ziyu who was at the back.
At this moment, under the many tall and sturdy Hemlock Spirit Trees, these Wooden Bulls, which were about twenty to thirty feet long, were unable to form a formation and charge forward. The threat of several ordinary Wooden Bull Demons to Lu Xiaotian and the others was greatly reduced. In this place, they couldn't use their high speed to create a huge impact. Lu Xiaotian and the others burst into action, killing several Wooden Skeletal Bull Demons in succession. Although these demons lacked sufficient means of attack, they had no way to deal with Lu Xiaotian and the others, who were hard to chew. Thus, they could only retreat helplessly.
"Let's take a rest for the time being. After we familiarize ourselves with the environment here, we'll think of a way to hunt more Wooden Bull Demons."
Ye Ziyu smiled and called out to the others. Although they encountered a large group of Wooden Bull Demons as soon as they were teleported in, they managed to gain a foothold and killed eight or nine Wooden Bull Demons in succession. Their harvest was quite bountiful. Lu Xiaotian also collected the primordial spirits of five Deity Transformation Stage Wooden Bull Demons.
"Although I think that Yang Feng is hateful, he did a good thing by pulling Brother Lu into the team. In that situation just now, other than Brother Lu, if it were any of us, I'm afraid we wouldn't dare to directly stand in front of the herd of demonic bulls like that. These Wooden Bull Demons are also very cunning. Once we were separated, we would have to fight on our own. In the face of this violent herd of Wooden Bull Demons, I'm afraid there would already be casualties. "Mo Yuyan put away the formation plate and revealed a brilliant smile, revealing a mouthful of jade white teeth.
"Cousin is right. I wonder where Brother Lu is from? What sect is he from? Before in Yuan Ling City, I had never heard of a person called Brother Lu. "Ye Ziyu raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a slight smile.
"Before, I was always roaming the world and didn't have a fixed place. It wasn't until later when I came to Yuan Ling City that I felt this place was good, so I stayed. " Lu Xiaotian saw that the smile on Ye Ziyu's face was similar to Joe Yu's in the past. Joe Yu began to cultivate with him since he was a child and was rarely disturbed by worldly affairs. He had a naturally optimistic temperament and loved to smile. Ye Ziyu in front of him had always had a calm expression. It was only now that the smile on her face was closer to the Joe Yu in his memory.
