Therefore, even if the Misty Hall was filled with danger, Lu Xiaotian still decided to make a trip there. After all, he had a way to deal with the Brahma Spiritual Fire that was fatal to Jin Dan cultivators. As for the other dangers, he could only deal with them as they came.
However, there was another problem that made Lu Xiaotian quite worried. Since Luo Pinger's father and a group of Jin Dan cultivators could find traces of the Misty Hall, then the other Jin Dan cultivators who were here to hunt Monster Beasts could naturally do the same. In other words, he still had to face the competition of other cultivators.
After all, the Misty Hall might not only have the Brahma Spiritual Fire, there might be other treasures.
Moreover, since the Misty Hall could move around, he had to search around. He couldn't just stay in one place and wait.
After making up his mind, Lu Xiaotian sat down and recovered a portion of his consumed Fa Li. He began to search for traces of the Misty Hall along these few uninhabited islands. According to the last words left by Luo Pinger's father, the Misty Hall should appear in the next few years. However, as for the specific day and location, there was no definite information. Even if Lu Xiaotian had a map in his hand, he still wasn't 100% sure.
He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate. Lu Xiaotian sighed slightly. Fortunately, there wasn't much difference to him where he cultivated. He could just treat these few years as cultivating here. Moreover, he could also hunt Monster Beasts on the sea. Even if he couldn't wait for the rumored Misty Hall, he wouldn't be wasting his time.
Letting out the Little Fire Crow, who could no longer hold back, for a spin, Lu Xiaotian began his life of traveling in this boundless sea. Even if he didn't find the Misty Hall, Lu Xiaotian still had to cultivate, deduce formations, and nurture a few artifacts. These matters were enough for him to keep himself busy.
Time passed day by day. Lu Xiaotian spent every day searching and cultivating. Occasionally, he would detect traces of Monster Beasts and would set up formations to hunt them. Considering that when Di Kun was facing his tribulation, he used the trapping formation to escape from the green-robed old man. Using his free time, Lu Xiaotian would also refine one or two trapping formations that didn't have much destructive power and were specifically used to confuse and trap opponents.
One after another, Lu Xiaotian killed more than a dozen seventh-order Monster Beasts and a slightly weaker eighth-order Monster Beast.
Encountering powerful eighth-order Monster Beasts several times, Lu Xiaotian would directly let them out of the formation to avoid fighting with them and injuring both sides. The gains wouldn't make up for the losses.
But occasionally, he would encounter a tough bone. Once, he encountered a Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python at the peak of the eighth-order. Its strength was extremely tyrannical and its methods were extremely sharp. Because he cultivated the Nameless Serpent Art and the Soul Devouring Art, the Primordial Spirit Essence of the Demonic Python would greatly increase his strength. Lu Xiaotian became excited and lured the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python to a floating island. Then, he set up a formation and fought with the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python. In this battle, Lu Xiaotian used all his means and formations. Together with Di Kun, he still couldn't restrain the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python. He only managed to injure it. But after the injury, the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python unexpectedly became lucky and began to break through to the ninth-order Monster Beast level. With a swing of its tail, it almost broke the formation. Lu Xiaotian was shocked. He hurriedly withdrew the Eight Trigrams Demon Sealing Formation and fled in a sorry state.
The Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python, which had been injured and angered by Lu Xiaotian, was already furious at the man and the beast in front of it. Now that it had made a breakthrough, its strength had increased greatly. How could it be willing to give up on its cultivation? The black and white alms bowls were still being nurtured in his Dantian. At this time, they couldn't display much of their power. Lu Xiaotian rode on Di Kun and fled in all directions.
The Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python chased after the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python for a day and a night without rest. Even Di Kun showed signs of fatigue. Lu Xiaotian had no choice but to use the trapping formation on his body to lure the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python into the formation and trap it for a short period of time. Only then was he able to escape.
After escaping, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, he had shaken it off. With his current strength, even if he joined forces with Di Kun, it was impossible for him to win against a Rank Nine Demonic Beast. Originally, Lu Xiaotian had a trace of a fluke. After all, dealing with a peak Rank Eight Demonic Beast was already a huge risk. Even if he managed to kill it, the Eight Trigrams Demon Sealing Formation would most likely suffer a certain degree of damage. After all, killing a thousand enemies was equivalent to sacrificing eight hundred of his own men. It was impossible for him to achieve a complete victory without paying a price.
After this lesson, Lu Xiaotian became even more cautious. He would never rashly take risks. He would rather kill weaker Demonic Beasts than do what he did before. After all, he occasionally killed Rank Seven Gold Attribute Demonic Beasts in this region of the sea. However, it wasn't like when he was in Qingzhou City's Golden Zhi Valley. Once the Eight Trigrams Demon Sealing Formation suffered too much damage, he would lose his biggest asset to contend against Jin Dan Intermediate Stage cultivators.
His goal was to enter the Misty Hall, not to fight to the death with these Demonic Beasts. However, there were times when Lu Xiaotian's luck was not bad. He encountered two Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes that were fighting over territory. They were both at the peak of the eighth rank and were not any weaker than the Seven Flowered Sea Demonic Python that had yet to break through. The two Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes fought from the bottom of the sea all the way to the sky before crashing into the sea again. Lu Xiaotian originally wanted to stay far away. However, after seeing that the strength of the two Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes were about the same, he gave up on the idea. Thus, he dived into the sea and quietly watched the battle.
The two Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes fought for an entire day. One of them had its arms grabbed by the other, which was slightly stronger, and its body, which was several hundred feet tall, was directly torn into two halves. The escaping Primordial Spirit Essence was also crushed by the winning Primordial Spirit Essence. Seeing this, Lu Xiaotian's heart ached. Once he obtained the Primordial Spirit Essence of such a powerful Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Ape and used the Soul Devouring Technique, his battle prowess would soar by a large margin.
However, after the two Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes fought for a long time, the winning Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes also suffered a great loss. Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed with killing intent. Without any hesitation, he directly took out the Fire Dragon Bow and swallowed a Rank Seven Demonic Beast's Soul Essence. Taking advantage of the fact that the Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes had not recovered from the excitement of victory, he shot a sneak attack at its left eye. After all, the winning Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Ape had already suffered a great loss of Primordial Spirit Essence. In addition, Lu Xiaotian had concealed his aura completely beforehand. Thus, the arrow was effective. However, it only seriously injured the Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Ape. It was far from killing it. In close combat, Lu Xiaotian had further experienced the terror of the Deep Sea Cyan Demonic Apes. It was no wonder that for so many years, the Human Race was still confined to the land most of the time. Fighting these Demonic Beasts in the sea was indeed somewhat disadvantageous.
