Under a few surprised gazes, a person who was originally lying on the ground and sealed in a thick layer of ice due to the mana of the ice talisman broke out of the ice with a cracking sound. The spikes on his body were also pulled out from his abdomen. His bleeding abdomen was now healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Shua, Lu Xiaotian shook his body and the ice shards on his body were all shaken off. At this time, other than his face being slightly pale, there were still some injuries on his body. However, in a situation where the energy in his magic bead was depleted, the injuries did not have much effect on the battle.
As for why the person who launched the sneak attack was Slayer Infant Monk, Lu Xiaotian had his own considerations. Originally, the person he wanted to sneak attack the most was Xiang Sicheng. After all, this person was too shrewd. Lu Xiaotian vaguely felt that although this person was only in the middle stage of Jin Dan, he was his biggest threat.
This person had too many hidden tricks, and Lu Xiaotian did not have the confidence to kill him in one strike. Since that was the case, he might as well take a step back and kill his henchman, Slayer Infant Monk, and cut off one of his arms. If it was a normal situation, even if Xiang Sicheng lost Slayer Infant Monk, it would not be a big deal. After all, his subordinates were strong.
However, at this time, most of his henchmen had already been eliminated. Old Monster Mu had died tragically at the hands of the Iron Thornback Demon Centipede, and Slayer Infant Monk had been killed by Lu Xiaotian's sneak attack. At this time, Xiang Sicheng was all alone. Even if he had some hidden tricks, under the complicated situation, he might not dare to act rashly.
As for the human-shaped ghost, he had also survived until now. However, he was from the ghost race, and there was no direct conflict of interest between them.
Secondly, Xiang Sicheng's alertness was not low. When Slayer Infant Monk first obtained the infant of the Iron Thornback Demon Centipede, he was ecstatic, but his perception of his surroundings had decreased by a lot. Moreover, there was Xiang Sicheng beside him, so naturally he was not alert enough. Choosing to sneak attack Slayer Infant Monk at this time had the highest chance of success.
The facts proved that Lu Xiaotian's judgment was correct. After killing the threat of the Soul Slayer Monk, the situation at the scene became clear.
Lu Xiaotian wanted to kill the Nascent Divinity of the Death Reaper Monk when he saw it escape. However, Lu Xiaotian frowned and gave up on the Nascent Divinity of the Death Reaper Monk. Instead, he flicked his fingers and formed several grey webs that blocked the Nascent Divinity of the Iron Thornback Demon Centipede.
Slayer Infant Monk's corporeal body had already been destroyed. Now, only his primordial spirit was left. He was no longer a threat. Lu Xiaotian naturally wouldn't let the Iron Thornback Demon Centipede's soul escape for this dispensable fellow.
After witnessing the power of a tenth-order monster beast and Xiang Sicheng's ice talisman, Lu Xiaotian was even more eager to possess a power that could allow him to surpass his current realm. Without a doubt, this tenth-order monster beast before him was his only hope.
Compared to the Iron Thornback Demon Centipede's primordial spirit, the death of the Soul Slayer Infant Monk was naturally insignificant.
However, the strength of a tenth-order monster beast's primordial spirit was far inferior to that of a ninth-order monster beast. Lu Xiaotian controlled several Soul Slayer Webs to intercept the monster beast's primordial spirit. However, the webs were not very effective. The blocked monster beast's primordial spirit broke through the webs time and time again in an attempt to escape.
Lu Xiaotian continued to capture the monster beast's primordial spirit as though there was no one else around. He completely ignored the gazes of Xiang Sicheng and the rest.
Xiang Sicheng originally believed that the situation was under control. He never expected such a variable to suddenly appear. He originally thought that even if Lu Xiaotian survived the monster beast's attack, he would at least be seriously injured and temporarily lose the ability to fight. He never expected that the attack was real, but the injury was fake. From the way Lu Xiaotian attacked earlier, it didn't seem like he was injured at all. It was no different from when he was at his peak.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Xiang Sicheng would never have believed it. After all, everyone had seen Lu Xiaotian's abdomen being pierced by the spikes. It couldn't be faked at all. Falling from such a high altitude without any signs of using magic power, how could anyone not tell whether it was a real fall or a fake fall?
Falling from a height of several thousand feet, he had smashed into the ground, creating a huge crater. If it were him, Xiang Sicheng didn't think that he would be able to survive, but this impossible situation had happened right in front of his eyes.
The same question puzzled Du Fenghu and the human-shaped ghost.
"Brother Lu, why did you attack one of your own?" Xiang Sicheng glanced at the fleeing Soul Slayer Infant Monk's primordial spirit after Lu Xiaotian killed his right-hand man. However, he still questioned Lu Xiaotian.
"When this tenth-order monster was still alive, we could barely be considered one of our own. Now that the greatest threat is gone, it naturally can't be considered one of us."
Lu Xiaotian smiled faintly. The Misty Flying Sword flashed in the air and blocked in front of him. Although he was somewhat afraid of Xiang Sicheng, if the other party wanted to attack, no matter how afraid he was, he would still fight him. After all, the ice type talisman from before was already heaven-defying for a late stage Jin Dan cultivator. Lu Xiaotian didn't believe that the other party had a second one.
Even if he did, in such a dangerous situation, Xiang Sicheng might not dare to use it. After all, he was only a middle JinDan stage cultivator. Without this kind of super power, even if the set of North River Nether Needles was extremely powerful, it would still be able to take down Lu Xiaotian or the human-shaped ghost, who were peak JinDan stage experts, with some effort.
However, there were many Nascent Soul Fruits. As long as the other party wasn't too greedy, Lu Xiaotian didn't want to waste this kind of effort. Especially in this kind of situation.
"Why, Brother Ye, no, the Heir of Xiang Country wants to attack me for the sake of that Soul Slayer Infant Monk? Or do you want to wait until your other two groups of people arrive? "Lu Xiaotian said unhurriedly as he surrounded the tenth-order monster's primordial spirit.
Xiang Sicheng's expression changed several times. Lu Xiaotian's move was not simple. While controlling the flying sword, he wanted to capture the monster's primordial spirit. In addition, he could talk to him as if there was no one else around. It was not a big deal for the other party to expose his identity.
However, Lu Xiaotian knew that he still had people. This was really not simple. Xiang Sicheng felt a burst of anger in his heart. How much does this guy know?
"I've long known that Lu Daoyou is powerful, but I didn't expect that the Heir of Xiang Country is also not easy to deal with. I have no interest in participating in your game. Everyone, please leave."
After the human-shaped ghost received enough blood from the monster, he thought that these two guys were not simple. Although Xiang Sicheng was rich, Lu Xiaotian seemed to be alone, but he was unpredictable. Even a ghost cultivator like him didn't have the confidence to deal with either of them. Now that he had achieved his goal, there was no need to stay with such a dangerous person who could become his enemy at any time. It was better to leave as soon as possible.
