The pair of antennae on the Bloodfloat's head waved about in the air, as if searching for some sort of energy. Perhaps because it couldn't find anything, the Bloodfloat seemed rather agitated. It was like an ant on a hot pan, crawling back and forth across the moist rocks.
"Brother Yu, could it be that the Bloodfloat can't find the mark you left behind?" Huo Ying said somewhat worriedly. "If that's the case, then all of our efforts will have been for nothing."
"It can't be. Perhaps because of the invasion of the Ghost Race, the energy here has become even more chaotic than before, so the Bloodfloat needs some time." Although Yu Dongbao said this, a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on his forehead. Clearly, he wasn't very confident either and was only trying to comfort himself. If it really was as Huo Ying said, then all of their efforts over the past few years would have been for nothing.
Even Lu Xiaotian, although he had gained a lot in the past few days and had even directly broken through to the Late-stage of Gold Core, and also gained some benefits from Long Shi of the Stone Golem Clan, he had not had time to refine the powerful force left in his body by Long Shi. But just like all other late Jin Dan cultivators, what he cared about the most was the Nascent Soul Fruit. Compared to the Nascent Soul Fruit, all of the other benefits seemed to pale in comparison.
Squeak, squeak ….
Roughly thirty minutes later, the blood-red Bloodfloat let out a shrill cry, and the pair of antennae in the air suddenly stopped moving.
"Found it," Yu Dongbao said excitedly.
Without waiting for him to give the order, the Bloodfloat suddenly shot into the air, transforming into a streak of bloody light that shot off into the distance.
Not long after Lu Xiaotian's group left, several dozen Shadowmouse Weasels of varying strength ran out of the cave at incredible speeds. They sniffed around, but Lu Xiaotian's group was already far away. In a place where the energy was so chaotic, even the sharpest noses of the Shadowmouse Weasels would find it difficult to find Lu Xiaotian's group.
The group followed the Bloodfloat Weasel across mountains and rivers. Along the way, they encountered several waves of Demonic Beasts and Ghost Clan members. However, as they were in a hurry, their attacks were extremely ruthless. Occasionally, they would encounter one or two Jin Dan level demons. Under the joint attack of the few of them, the demon beasts or wandering ghosts could not withstand the joint attack of the few of them.
Whoosh, whoosh, another few White Bone Falcons flew over from afar. Under the flapping of the huge skeletal wings, the Yin wind wreaked havoc, and the fist-sized stones on the ground were affected and scattered in all directions.
"Brother Lu, the Blood Floating Mayfly has an extremely strong blood aura, which is especially attractive to the Ghost Clan. The Blood Floating Mayfly's strength is limited, so we must not let these Bone Falcons attack it. Otherwise, once the Blood Floating Mayfly dies, we won't be able to find the Nascent Soul Fruit on our own. "
Suddenly, he saw that there were a few more Golden Core Realm White Bone Falcons. There were now seven of them. The expressions of Yu Dongbao and the others changed greatly. Previously, when they encountered a small number of Demonic Beasts and Ghost Clan members, they were all attacked. The few of them were not weak, so they could naturally win in a single battle. However, the situation in front of them had exceeded their expectations, especially these White Bone Falcons. They could no longer ambush them like when they were in the cave.
The attack power of the White Bone Falcons was within their acceptable range, but the White Bone Falcons were not slow. If they attacked them, it would not be a big deal. However, they were afraid that if they were careless, the Blood Floating Mayfly would be heavily injured. Without the Blood Floating Mayfly to lead the way, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens for them to find the Nascent Soul Fruit in this place.
Although they had some tricks up their sleeves, it would still be difficult to kill the White Bone Falcons in the air. Yu Dongbao, Shao Zixia, and Huo Ying had known each other for a long time and were quite familiar with each other. Only Lu Xiaotian, although they had not known each other for a long time, had unfathomable strength. Encountering the current situation, the three of them naturally thought that Lu Xiaotian might be able to resolve this crisis.
In fact, just as Yu Dongbao thought of this, Lu Xiaotian directly patted the Spirit Accumulation Gourd and spat out a small bow and arrow. Under the stimulation of his magic power, the bow and arrow rapidly enlarged.
By the time the three of them reacted, a Fire Serpent Arrow had already turned into a roaring Serpent in the air. Its speed was much faster than the White Bone Falcons in the air.
The Serpent Arrow was like a living creature, biting down on the first White Bone Falcon. The White Bone Falcon and the Serpent Arrow tore at each other, causing flames to splatter in the air. However, even more of the flames were scattered, turning into ashes and smelling of burnt bones. This Rank Eight White Bone Falcon didn't persist for long before it exploded into bone fragments and scattered all over the sky.
With a blood-curdling scream, another White Bone Falcon was shot down by Lu Xiaotian's arrow. Everyone's spirits were lifted. They looked at Lu Xiaotian meaningfully. They did not expect the power of this Fire Serpent Arrow to be so great. It was even stronger than the Golden Saber that Lu Xiaotian used before. Moreover, Lu Xiaotian also had an artifact-type artifact on him. His wealth was not inferior to the few of them. It was not common for a Loose Cultivator to be more extravagant than a disciple from a Xiuxian Aristocratic Family. However, when they thought of Lu Xiaotian's sharp methods, they felt relieved. Not to mention them, even among the Xiuxian Aristocratic Families that they knew, there were not many Jin Dan Cultivators who could be compared to Lu Xiaotian. After knowing each other and spending more time together, they found that Lu Xiaotian was like a bottomless pool. What was revealed to the outside world was always only the tip of the iceberg.
The Cyan Moon Saber and Shao Zixia's Flying Sword were released one after another. Huo Ying took out his own Black Treasure Gourd. Inside, an uncountable number of Sword Artifacts formed a torrent and poured out. In terms of momentum, Huo Ying was naturally the most powerful among them. However, in order to control this black gourd, he needed a large amount of mana and consciousness to control it. Even Huo Ying, a late Aurous Core stage cultivator, did not look relaxed.
The remaining White Bone Falcons, like before, trembled and left a faint shadow in the air. They wanted to pass through the attack of Lu Xiaotian and the others, but they were interrupted by Huo Ying's wave of Sword Artifacts. The White Bone Falcons flew into a rage out of humiliation and flapped their wings. Of the remaining five White Bone Falcons, the two leaders had actually reached the Ninth Step. The five White Bone Falcons flapped their wings, faintly forming a strange formation.
"Lowly animals, come up and die!" Lu Xiaotian shot down two White Bone Falcons in a row, raising the morale of Huo Ying and the others. Although the remaining five White Bone Falcons were not a small number, it was already within the acceptable range. They felt that victory was already in their hands.
"Be careful, these White Bone Falcons are not simple." Seeing that the five White Bone Falcons did not rush forward like before, but instead flapped their wings in a strange manner, Lu Xiaotian, as a highly accomplished Formation Master, was the first to see some clues. However, he did not know what was so special about these White Bone Falcons. However, with five Jin Dan level ghosts working together, it was certainly not simple.
