(It has been almost a month since the release of the new book. Hammer also knows that there is nothing new in this book. However, after reading 'Mortal' and 'Purple Mansion', he has always wanted to write a similar book. I've had this idea for a few years, but I haven't written it until now. Even if their numbers were terrible, they would still be able to persevere until the end of the dungeon. He couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw that some readers were actually voting for him and giving him tips. Here, I'll shamelessly ask my book friends to collect it and recommend it. Even if I have to pounce, I should at least try not to pounce too badly.)
The freak with a large body snorted angrily. "What, have you used up all your Vajra Talismans? The Earth Spirit Barrier won't last much longer. Just wait for your death! "
Although that was what he said, he was secretly annoyed in his heart. This damned alchemist had prepared so many escape and defensive talismans, as well as a large amount of spirit stones to replenish his magic power. He had killed nearly 30 of his Shadow Ants in succession. Looking at the Shadow Ant corpses on the ground, his heart twitched. He estimated that it would take a long time for him to recover the number of dead Shadow Ants.
There were also a few head shadows that had suffered injuries of varying degrees. In order to quickly restore the combat strength of these shadow ants, they would have to pay a large amount of blood essence. Even when he had killed several opponents in the past, it had never been so strenuous.
Since so many of the spiritual insects he had raised with his blood essence had died, he naturally hated Lu Xiaotian to the bone. He wanted to kill him.
"It's a good thing that this brat doesn't have enough talismans on him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have used the Earth Spirit Barrier, which has even worse defensive properties! Let's see how this guy dies, "the large freak thought viciously.
At this moment, Zou Xin, who was trapped by the Essence Fortifying Array Formation, was unable to attack for a long time. Instead, he was shaken by the light shield formed by the array formation, causing him to feel dizzy and ringing in his ears. As for the giant ape, it also rubbed its aching head and sat down beside Zou Xin.
"Good job! Kill this despicable bastard!" Fortunately, this formation only had the effect of trapping people and did not have any offensive power. Zou Xin looked through the light shield and saw that Lu Xiaotian was obviously at a disadvantage. He was surrounded by the large number of ants. Zou Xin was overjoyed. As long as Lu Xiaotian died, it wouldn't be long before he could escape.
At the same time, Zou Xin was secretly shocked by Lu Xiaotian's fierceness. Not only did he trap him, but he was also able to hold off a large number of monsters for so long. This kind of ability was not something an ordinary cultivator could possess.
Fortunately, Fan Qing had run fast enough. Otherwise, if they had been of one mind, he would have been trapped, and the large monster would have been entangled by Lu Xiaotian. Their team would have been wiped out instead. Thinking of this, Zou Xin felt a wave of lingering fear. At the same time, he secretly smiled. This kid had really hidden himself well. Even Fan Qing, who was in the same squad as him, did not know about his background. He had really tried to be clever but ended up making a fool of himself. Instead, he had landed himself in a dead end!
Although he was separated by the formation and couldn't hear the fighting outside, the light shield formed by the formation didn't prevent him from seeing the situation outside.
Half an hour later, Lu Xiaotian used up all the talismans in his hand. A few Head Ants and the rest of the Shadow Ants quickly bit the Earth Spiritual Shield into pieces. Although he tried his best to kill the large monster, it was easily dodged by the Shadow Ants.
Seeing that there was no hope for victory, Lu Xiaotian turned around and fled in panic. At the same time, he used magic to try his best to sweep away the surrounding Shadow Ants.
"You want to escape now? It's too late!" the large monster shrieked, its face full of hostility. It quickly chased after Lu Xiaotian. The Shadow Ants were like maggots attached to bones, constantly surrounding him. After killing so many of his Spirit Insects, how could the large monster let him go?
"Ah!" Lu Xiaotian cried out in panic. The last layer of the Earth Spiritual Shield collapsed. Dozens of Shadow Ants passed through the shattered shield and surrounded Lu Xiaotian, biting him fiercely. Lu Xiaotian used his short sword to chop a dozen Shadow Ants away, but there were too many of them. He couldn't force them all back.
After being bitten by the Shadow Ants, Lu Xiaotian's movements suddenly stopped. His face was full of panic and despair.
"I have nothing to say now that I'm in your hands. If you want to kill me, then kill me!" Lu Xiaotian said coldly after a while.
"You actually killed so many of my Spirit Insects. I'll make you beg for death. After I've tortured you enough, I'll cut you into a thousand pieces!"
Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was bitten by the Shadow Ants, the large monster heaved a sigh of relief. A cultivator who couldn't circulate his Essence was no different from an ordinary person to him. He wasn't a threat at all.
Lu Xiaotian simply closed his eyes and didn't say anything else.
Inside the Earth Fortifying Formation, Zou Xin shouted at the large monster. Unfortunately, the large monster couldn't hear him. Zou Xin couldn't help but scratch his head in anxiety. If the large monster really took Lu Xiaotian's storage pouch, he wouldn't get any benefits. Even if he did, it would only be some leftovers. There wouldn't be anything valuable.
The large monster glanced at Zou Xin, who was still trapped by the formation, and then chuckled. Zou Xin was trapped. He had paid a heavy price to capture Lu Xiaotian. Naturally, he had to choose his spoils of war first.
He didn't know how long this strange formation could trap Zou Xin. Seeing that Lu Xiaotian had closed his eyes and was waiting for death, the large monster swaggered towards Lu Xiaotian. He reached out to grab the Spirit Sword in Lu Xiaotian's hand and the storage pouch at his waist.
However, it was also at this moment that Lu Xiaotian's eyes suddenly opened. They emitted a frightening cold light. The Spirit Sword in his hand stabbed towards the large monster's chest like lightning.
The large monster was so frightened that his soul almost left his body. He hastily chanted an incantation.
The Spirit Sword stabbed into his chest. However, Lu Xiaotian frowned. The Spirit Sword seemed to have stabbed into a piece of wood. How was this possible?
Not waiting for Lu Xiaotian to be surprised for long, a black shadow shot back in pain. Lu Xiaotian took a closer look and saw that the spirit sword had pierced through the chest was a humanoid object that looked like metal but wasn't metal, wood but wasn't wood.
The two of them looked at each other in shock. What the large monster didn't understand was that his unfailing Shadow Ants had clearly bitten Lu Xiaotian no less than a dozen times. Even a late Aura Refining stage cultivator, or even a peak Aura Refining stage cultivator, wouldn't be able to circulate their Origin Qi.
However, Lu Xiaotian wasn't affected in the slightest. He had completely lured the large monster closer and then suddenly attacked. However, Lu Xiaotian's expression when he was bitten by the Shadow Ants didn't seem to be faking it. He had raised Shadow Ants for many years. He was very familiar with the reaction of Shadow Ants after they bit someone. Even if it was fake, it wouldn't be able to escape his eyes.
However, what the large monster didn't know was that Lu Xiaotian had been bitten by Shadow Ants before. That was why he could put on such an expression.
What shocked Lu Xiaotian the most was that when his Spirit Sword was clearly about to pierce into his body, the large monster actually replaced it with a refined substitute and escaped with his life. Although he didn't know what kind of treasure it was, it definitely wasn't an ordinary item.
Inside the Fortifying Element Formation, Zou Xin's fear was no less than the two of them. He didn't know that the large monster had the ability to escape in the face of danger. Neither of these two people were easy to deal with. Now that he understood the large monster's secret, Zou Xin felt a burst of fear. He didn't know if the two of them would be friends or foes after leaving the formation. It seemed that he had to be more vigilant in the future. Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
The large monster clutched his bleeding chest. Just now, he was in too much of a hurry. The Wood Puppet wasn't able to block most of the damage. The Spirit Sword still pierced his chest by nearly an inch. If it went any deeper, it might have injured his internal organs.
"Your trick has failed. Let's see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!" It seemed that there was going to be a tough battle ahead. The large monster took out his meteor hairpin and faced Lu Xiaotian with a gloomy expression.
"I can kill you all the same without any tricks!"
Lu Xiaotian sneered. When the large monster realized that something was wrong and retreated, he threw down the human-shaped puppet and quickly ran toward the large monster. With a sword in his right hand, his left hand had secretly prepared a stack of elementary level Spirit Talismans. In order to lure the other party into his trap, he had used up almost all of his Vajra Talismans, but he hadn't used any of his offensive Spirit Talismans.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. While his opponent was injured, he would kill or severely injure him in one fell swoop. He wouldn't give him a chance to breathe!
The large monster waved his meteor hairpin and stabbed at the Spirit Sword in Lu Xiaotian's hand. After all, his cultivation was a bit higher. Even if he was injured, it wasn't fatal. He could still take care of this extremely troublesome enemy that made him gnash his teeth in anger.
"Now's the time." Lu Xiaotian's lips curled into a sly smile. The Spirit Talismans in his hand suddenly appeared.
"Fireball Talisman, Golden Spear Talisman, Ice Arrow Talisman, Earth Spike Talisman, Wind Blade Talisman, Winding Talisman, Fire Arrow Talisman."
Dozens of elementary level Spirit Talismans released spells in a row and crazily swept toward the large monster.
With a series of crackling sounds, flames, and ice cubes exploded. The large monster's disbelieving, shocked, and angry face could be vaguely seen. The large monster's hastily formed Earth Spirit Shield didn't even last for a moment before it was torn to pieces by the violent spell attack.
The large monster didn't have time to react. He roared and waved the meteor hammer in his hand, using all his strength to split apart the ice arrows, fire arrows, and golden spears. Because the large monster overused his magic power, his slightly tanned face was flushed red. He waved his meteor hairpin to the extreme, forming dozens of phantoms, trying his best to block the attacks. However, there was still a golden spear and an earth spike that pierced his left arm and lower abdomen. "Boom!" The fireball that exploded charred his clothes black. Most of his hair and beard were burned. The large monster cried out in pain, blood spurting out like a fountain.
"Uh …" A figure flashed past him. The large monster only felt a chill in his throat, and his movements came to an abrupt halt.
When Lu Xiaotian withdrew his sword, blood spurted out of the large monster's throat like a fountain. He fell to the ground with an unwilling expression.
Dozens of elementary level Spirit Spells exploded at such a close distance. To be able to withstand more than half of them and only suffer some injuries was already quite impressive. What was fatal was Lu Xiaotian's sword strike when the large number of monsters had exhausted all their strength in order to block these spells and had yet to recover their strength.
In terms of personal cultivation, Lu Xiaotian felt that he didn't have the confidence to defeat his opponent. He had taken the antidote before, so the Shadow Ants he relied on the most were useless against him. In a situation where he was injured, he was still ambushed by dozens of elementary level Spirit Talismans at close range. Lu Xiaotian felt that this large monster was quite unlucky.
In the end, he killed his opponent. Lu Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief. He took the gourd containing the Shadow Ants and the storage bag from the large monster's waist. He didn't check the items inside, and instead turned his attention to Zou Xin who was trapped by the formation.
Lu Xiaotian's expression was uncertain. In order to kill the large monster, he had already used all his trump cards. The large man in embroidered clothes wasn't weak. His cultivation was similar to his, and there was also a third level Qi Refining black ape. If they fought, he might not be able to win. However, more than half of the two hours had passed. The large man in embroidered clothes would soon break free. If he left now, the large man in embroidered clothes would think that he had used up a lot of energy and would chase him even more fiercely. Moreover, the fierce battle just now had used up a lot of Vitality. If he left the small forest, he might encounter other unexpected situations.
More importantly, he was chased by two people this time. It was only because of the Fortifying Element Formation that he was able to break free.
The Full Moon Mountain Range was filled with danger. He could encounter other cultivator teams at any time. Now that he was alone, if he was discovered by other teams, those with low cultivation wouldn't be able to catch up to him. Those with higher cultivation wouldn't let go of a lone prey. It was very likely that he would encounter similar pursuits.
If he returned to Full Moon City from Mount Li, he wouldn't be able to find a reliable team to join in a short period of time. This also meant that he would give up the opportunity to join a sect this year. His aptitude was mediocre. Every year he was delayed, his chances of successfully reaching Foundation Establishment would decrease. He definitely wouldn't give up so easily. Therefore, he naturally couldn't give up on this formation.
"I can't give up!" Lu Xiaotian faintly smiled. He took out two low grade Spirit Stones from the barrier. He held one in each hand and sat cross-legged.
As expected, Lu Xiaotian's fearless actions caused Zou Xin to feel a chill in his heart.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, the Vitality in his body had mostly recovered. At this time, the Spirit Fortifying Formation's Spirit Qi had also been exhausted. The light barrier was gradually thinning.
Zou Xin was overjoyed. He swung his Wolf Tooth Club and smashed open the weak light barrier. He jumped out with the black ape and quickly fled without looking back.
"That saved me a fierce battle."
Lu Xiaotian also let out a sigh of relief. It was always good to avoid unnecessary trouble. After meditating for a while, Lu Xiaotian's Vitality had completely recovered. He stood up and put away the formation flags. However, at this time, the hairs on his body stood on end. Looking over, he saw that the embroidered clothed man who had left not long ago had returned. It seemed that his previous escape was just to test his movements.
Zou Xin gloomily sized up Lu Xiaotian. Lu Xiaotian had cut off Hunchback He's arm and poisoned him. And now, Eccentric Large had unexpectedly died at his hands. However, in addition to this formation, he also had a few more Spirit Talismans in his hand. This young opponent didn't have many powerful methods. He was just very scheming.
Normally, Zou Xin would never be willing to have a life and death battle with such an enemy. However, not to mention that Lu Xiaotian himself was an alchemist, and he was quite rich. Just the spiritual items in the big freak's storage bag alone were enough to make him drool.
Eccentric Large had already collected several kinds of Yao Dan and spiritual herbs that joined the Taiqing Sect. Coupled with some of his own collection, he might not be far from the Taiqing Sect's mission requirements. With these, it was enough for him to fight desperately. The escape just now was also a kind of test. Lu Xiaotian didn't chase after him, which meant that Lu Xiaotian didn't want to fight with him anymore. It should be that the Spirit Talismans on him were almost exhausted. Otherwise, there was no reason for him to let him go easily.
After thinking it through, Zou Xin mustered up his courage and turned back to Lu Xiaotian. "Actually, I don't want to fight with you. The two of us are about the same in strength. If we fight, I'm afraid both of us will be injured. However, Eccentric Large has a few things that I want. If you can share some with me, we will naturally be safe. "
