"Four or five," Lu Xiaotian said casually.
Even Yun Cangyue and the others couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. They had personally experienced the might of a late-Body Integration Stage old monster. It was hard to imagine that Lu Xiaotian had faced so many late-Body Integration Stage old monsters before his breakthrough. For a mid-Body Integration Stage cultivator, it was simply impossible to resist.
Even if Lu Xiaotian had teamed up with others, they still wouldn't be able to win against Lu Xiaotian with so many of them. If Lu Xiaotian was an enemy, less than half of them would have survived.
Not only had Lu Xiaotian dealt with so many late-Body Integration Stage old monsters, but he had also survived until now. This kind of strength was simply inconceivable.
For example, Ban Qianren, Zhu Qi, and many others had seen Lu Xiaotian's astonishing sword skills before. Although they had some doubts in their hearts, they didn't immediately associate that sword cultivator with Lu Xiaotian. After all, Lu Xiaotian was clearly somewhere else.
In the following time, Lu Xiaotian didn't wander around, other than secretly paying attention to the possible appearance of Luo Pinger or other important news. He just stayed in the Crimson Moon Desert and cultivated quietly. From time to time, he would personally enter the battlefield to follow Ba Li. Yun Cangyue and Yun Xiaoqi had their previous experience. In addition, Lu Xiaotian had personally admitted that his breakthrough had benefited from his previous battles with late-Body Integration Stage experts.
As long as the Body Integration Stage experts had the time, they would spar with Lu Xiaotian. With their strength, they naturally had to fight together. But every time, he was defeated by Lu Xiaotian's pressure.
Under this kind of huge pressure, Ba Li, Zhu Qi, Yun Xiaoqi, and the others all made great progress.
However, the ones who improved the most were still the Stone Tribe's group battle techniques. After fighting various Body Integration Stage experts and the Stone Tribe's trial, especially Lu Xiaotian's return, the Stone Tribe's morale was irreplaceable.
The Stone Tribe's group battle techniques began to resemble those of mid-Body Integration Stage experts. The tens of thousands of Stone Tribe warriors improved far faster than ordinary Body Integration Stage experts.
Apart from that, there was something that surprised Lu Xiaotian. Originally, Du Fenghu was about to break through the bottleneck. Lu Xiaotian had always thought that Du Fenghu would be the first to reach the early-Body Integration Stage. In fact, that wasn't the case. Di's breakthrough meant that the Crimson Moon Desert had another Body Integration Stage expert.
The rapid increase in strength in the Crimson Moon Desert caused Yun Cangyue to sigh with emotion. Zhu Xiashan was like the sun setting in the west. Only the father and daughter were still holding on. But in comparison, when Lu Xiaotian brought Zhu Qi and the Flakes to the Crimson Moon Desert, the Crimson Moon Desert could only be considered a mid-tier power in the Demon Realm of Chaos.
So many years had passed. It wasn't a short period of time, but it wasn't a long time to run a force. In the blink of an eye, the Red Moon Barren Lands had skyrocketed. Putting aside Lu Xiaotian's personal strength, just the number of Body Integration Realm experts gathered here was already extremely impressive.
As a fourth-grade Pill King with an extremely high success rate, it was simply too fast for him to nurture a force of this scale. Although this was completely based on Lu Xiaotian's personal strength and charm, it was indeed commendable for him to reach this level in such a short time.
However, after feeling envious, Yun Cangyue felt somewhat better. In the entire Demon Realm of Chaos, or perhaps the entire Immortal Cultivation World, the changes in power were too fast. Compared to the Fish Clan, Deer Clan, and the other clans, Zhu Xiashan's situation was definitely better. At least he, Yun Xiaoqi, and Lu Xiaotian were strong supporters. Because of Zhu Xiashan, Lu Xiaotian directly fought with such a powerful enemy.
In terms of friendship, Lu Xiaotian was definitely the kind that could be relied on. Moreover, if Zhu Xiashan wanted to find Lu Xiaotian to refine pills, it had an advantage that ordinary people did not have. Apart from Lu Xiaotian, Yun Xiaoqi and even he were very familiar with the third-grade Pill King, Crimson Moon.
In addition, Zhu Xiashan had accumulated resources in the past. It was actually much easier for them to rise compared to other forces. As for the Pearl Buddhist Sect, they had to take into account some of their past ties.
Lu Xiaotian planned to ignore the Twin Horned Demon Wolf, but he really did. He stayed in the Crimson Moon Desert for a few years and really did not contact the other party at all. The Twin Horned Demon Wolf was still able to keep calm for a while. Both sides seemed to be competing to see who would be the first to give up.
Lu Xiaotian stayed in the Crimson Moon Desert for six years. During these six years, there were constantly other forces that came to contact him, but they were all rejected by Lu Xiaotian in the name of cultivation. Occasionally, the Body Integration Stage powerhouses of the Crimson Moon Desert would also drag the Stone Tribe or the Wild Boar Tribe out to fight the Demon Army. It was their duty as a force of the Demon Realm of Chaos.
Apart from that, Lu Xiaotian did not attend the meetings of the old monsters of the Demon Realm of Chaos. Even when the Dark Moon Demonic Bat, Kou Jing, came to see him again, Lu Xiaotian directly turned him away. The Dark Moon Demonic Bat was annoyed by this and also regretted his previous actions. He did not expect that after his relationship with Lu Xiaotian turned sour, it would be so difficult to visit him again. There was no room for negotiation at all.
In fact, only Nan Chendu and the East Bear King had come twice. Xiong Kun, who secretly controlled the Demonic Mound of Darkness, had also come to visit. Apart from them, no one else received this treatment.
In these six years, Lu Xiaotian had almost made up for the lack of maturity in body cultivation. After all, it had been a long time since he broke through to the mid-Body Body Integration Stage. During these years, Lu Xiaotian had been cultivating diligently without slacking off.
Apart from that, he had also gained a lot. He had already refined four of the Astral Sources needed to activate the Mountain Shaking Formation of the Eight-Headed Astral Source. The speed of condensing Astral Liquid in the Red Moon Desert was still slower than some places with bright stars.
As for the remaining four Astral Sources, it would take a few more years. However, Lu Xiaotian decided to put it aside for now. Since he already had the Glacial Source Thousand Tide Pearl, the time had come. He could not wait any longer.
Lu Xiaotian had also been asking about Luo Pinger, but he did not obtain any valuable information. It seemed that everything had stopped at the Demon Fall Valley.
Shaking his head, Lu Xiaotian's true body left quietly with a little regret. As for the Lotus Avatar, it remained in the Crimson Moon Desert.
This time, Lu Xiaotian brought along Little Fire Crow and the little white dog Chasing Spirit. He was worried that they would be a big target and easily attract the attention of others. Lu Xiaotian did not even bring Ban Qianren. After all, he was not without enemies in the Demon Chaos Territory.
Someone might have found out about his whereabouts and seized the opportunity to sabotage his plans. Who knows? In short, it was better to be careful. Moreover, Lu Xiaotian was going to the Mo Sang Demon Sea in the endless demon sea. It was very close to the Long Sang Demon Sea.
