In the blink of an eye, the small green furball grew to several hundred times its original size. It was like a giant inflated ball, blocking everyone.
Sou sou, the spikes that shot out from the ground were all blocked by the expanding green ball.
The green ball cried out in pain. Lu Xiaotian focused and saw that the green ball was actually a living thing, just that it was being tortured by the spikes. Over ten spikes even directly pierced through the green ball, but their strength was greatly reduced, and Lu Xiaotian and the others easily struck them down.
"Green Velvet Tree Demon!" Lu Xiaotian squinted his eyes, he didn't expect Old Monster Mu to have such a rare item. This kind of demon had the ability to absorb mana, and its body would expand in a short period of time. Due to its thick skin and flesh, it had a strong defense, but this defense came at the cost of overdrawing its life force. And it also had a huge limitation, if the amount of mana injected wasn't enough, its defense was also very limited. At this moment, the mana of a few Jin Dan cultivators was still pierced through by the spikes. From this, one could see how powerful these spikes were.
Eh? Lu Xiaotian frowned slightly, the danger in front of them had temporarily passed. What made him surprised was that through the fish eyes of Gantian, his secondary primordial spirit saw two groups of Jin Dan cultivators approaching from the direction they were heading in. Each group had five people, and apart from these two groups, there was another group laying in ambush along the way.
They were less than ten miles apart, and at such a close distance, there were actually three groups of people, each group having five to seven people. They were all at peace with each other, so they should be from the same power. Lu Xiaotian frowned, secretly glancing at Xiang Sicheng. Out of everyone present, Xiang Sicheng had the highest possibility of being the one who could do such a thing.
It seemed like he had underestimated Xiang Sicheng, this person's ability was so big that it was unexpected.
Boom! The ground trembled, and at the place where the spikes surged, dense cracks appeared, and these cracks were continuously getting bigger.
Gravel flew in all directions, and soil flew everywhere. An invincible aura like that of a wild giant beast gushed out from the cracks like a flood.
Ironback Demon Centipede! Lu Xiaotian's face was aghast. How could he still care about whether this Tenth-Order monster was really injured? The aura that erupted in front of him was far beyond what he could withstand.
Lu Xiaotian retreated without hesitation. The others were not much slower than Lu Xiaotian.
Boom! One had a huge body and dense spikes on its back. It looked abnormally ferocious. Its two muscular hind legs stood on the ground and dragged a long tail. At this moment, its eyes were cold and filled with ridicule.
With a swipe of his forelimbs in the air, the Green Velvet Tree Demon, whose defense was quite strong before, exploded into countless pieces without even making a sound.
"A bunch of ants dare to disturb my peace? Since that's the case, all of you can stay behind and become my child's food."
The Ironback Demon Centipede's wide mouth spat out human words. Its figure flashed, and a black shadow flashed below. It directly blocked in front of Lu Xiaotian and the others, its front claws swiping at the air.
Although the Ironback Demon Centipede was much larger than an ordinary person, when it stood upright, it was only about thirty feet tall. However, the Ironback Demon Centipede did not move, but it gave off the feeling of a small mountain standing tall. Even the mountains in the distance could only serve as the Ironback Demon Centipede's background.
Indeed, Lu Xiaotian's eyes were sharp enough to see the bone-deep wound on the Demon Centipede's ribs. It should have been left behind by the Boulder Tribe warriors. However, based on the methods displayed by this monster, it did not seem to be injured at all. Even if it was injured, it would not take much effort to deal with this group of Jin Dan cultivators.
The Demon Centipede swiped its claws forward. A huge claw shadow broke through the air, like a giant hand holding up the sky, oppressing everyone to the point of suffocation.
Lu Xiaotian and the others instantly scattered.
"Ah!" Amidst the shrill screams behind them, He Rushuang had already been grabbed by the claw. The giant claw lightly squeezed, and He Rushuang's delicate body directly exploded into a cloud of blood mist, leaving nothing behind.
Lu Xiaotian felt a chill in his heart. At this moment, the difference in cultivation level was obvious. At this moment, there was no room for deception. Sun Youcai, who had the lowest cultivation level, was the first to die, followed by He Rushuang, who was slightly weaker.
At this moment, the importance of cultivation level and strength in the cruel cultivation world was self-evident. In the face of greater danger, even if one's strength was slightly stronger, it meant that one had a greater chance of survival. As long as one was alive, everything was possible. If one was dead, one could only turn into a pile of dirt.
Even in such a dangerous situation, Lu Xiaotian and the others did not dare to guarantee how long they could live. However, the difference in strength could not be more obvious.
In the chaos, Lu Xiaotian noticed that when Xiang Sicheng's face was ashen, he was fleeing in the direction of the first wave of cultivators that he saw with his Gantian fish eye. Even if he noticed some changes in his direction while dodging the chaotic air currents, Xiang Sicheng would quickly readjust and change his direction.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed. It seemed like the situation was exactly as he had predicted. The people who surrounded and set up the ambush were indeed Xiang Sicheng's backup plan. In the end, even if he, Jin Changdao, and the dead He Rushuang obtained the Nascent Soul Fruit, they would not be able to escape from the ambush he set up.
What a ruthless method, what a vicious mind. Lu Xiaotian did not make a sound, flying behind Xiang Sicheng on his sword, only half a step away. When Du Fenghu saw Lu Xiaotian's actions, he also followed.
"Brother Lu, if we split up and flee, we might have a chance of survival. If we gather together, are you afraid that the grade ten monster won't be able to see us?" Xiang Sicheng was annoyed by Lu Xiaotian's actions, and his tone unconsciously carried some anger.
"Brother Ye does not need to worry about how I escape. If Brother Ye feels that I am going in the wrong direction, you can choose another path."
Lu Xiaotian coldly replied, not caring about Ye Sicheng's emotions. He did not need to run faster than the monster; he just needed to run faster than the others. Once he split up and was targeted by the monster, Lu Xiaotian did not dare to guarantee that he would be as lucky as last time.
Moreover, this place was not far from the first wave of cultivators who set up the ambush. If there were a few more people, the monster would have a few more targets to attack, and his chances of escaping would be higher.
"No need to fight, all of you will die!" The body of the grade ten monster burrowed out from the ground. Although it had a big belly, it was unusually nimble. It chanted a few cryptic incantations.
Lu Xiaotian's heart tightened. The earth elemental energy above his head gathered crazily, forming a huge whirlpool. He looked up and saw that the clouds above his head were being torn apart by the earth elemental energy.
Huge sharp stone cones fell from the sky like rain. They shot towards the group.
