On the ancient winding path of the green hills, a young man in green was running at full speed. His speed was rather fast.
Lu Xiaotian smiled helplessly. As the date of the trip to the Forbidden Blood Grounds approached, the market became more and more bustling. Originally, he had planned to rent a spiritual bird to go to Pool Peak Town. However, when he asked around at the inn in the market, he found out that the spiritual birds had already been rented by other cultivators.
"Looks like I can only go to the Spirit Heaven Peak Region to see if there are any spiritual birds. Otherwise, I can only walk to Pool Peak Town."
The Spirit Heaven Peak Region was the closest to the market. As one of the strongest peak regions of the Spirit Firmament Palace, if he couldn't rent a spiritual bird here, he would probably end up in the same situation elsewhere.
"You're quite bold, kid. You dare to come to the Spirit Heaven Peak Region after offending me!"
When he passed by a stone forest, a group of six or seven people blocked Lu Xiaotian's path. The one leading the group was the handsome Luo Qian. Beside him was the enchanting Su Qing, as well as five other lackeys.
"Senior Brother Luo, I haven't had a good weapon to practice my combat skills for the past few days. I'm so bored." Su Qing pouted. Her charming appearance made Luo Qian and the rest feel enthralled.
Luo Qian patted his chest and put his hands on his waist. "Junior Sister Su, just you watch. Today, I will avenge you."
"Private fights are strictly prohibited at the palace gates. You want to fight here?" Lu Xiaotian frowned. He didn't expect Luo Qian to be so vengeful.
"Hmph, this stone forest is deserted. As long as we don't cause too much of a commotion, no one will notice us. It won't take much effort to teach you a lesson." The young man in embroidered clothes snorted. "Senior Brother Luo, why don't you let me go first? I'll definitely beat this kid up."
"Alright, then you go first. Teach this kid a lesson. Teach him a lesson that he dares to anger Junior Sister Su."
Luo Qian thought about how he was a lightning-type cultivator. Although his attacks were powerful, they would cause quite a commotion. Although this place was deserted, the Foundation Establishment Seniors of the Spirit Heaven Peak Region would easily notice them if they really caused a commotion.
"Alright! Brat, take this! "Jin Yiqing shouted after hearing Lu Xiaotian's words. He pulled out a spirit saber and slashed towards Lu Xiaotian.
These fellows were truly fearless. Lu Xiaotian lamented his bad luck. If he had known this would happen, he would not have come to the Spirit Heaven Peak Region and caused so much trouble. But thinking about it, Luo Qian and Su Qing, in particular, had exceedingly high backgrounds. Even if they violated the rules of the Palace, they would most likely not be severely punished. Now, he could only deal with this obstacle in front of him.
Lu Xiaotian patted the jade gourd on his waist, and a large number of shadow ants burst out of the gourd.
"So you are an insect cultivator. No wonder you are so arrogant."
Luo Qian snorted disdainfully, but the brocade-clothed youth was not so relaxed. After all, he was much weaker than Luo Qian.
The young man in embroidered clothes took out a talisman. It was a third-stage Water Spirit Barrier. At the same time, his expression turned ruthless as he rushed towards Lu Xiaotian. He wanted to take down Lu Xiaotian before the shadow ants surrounded him.
But how could Lu Xiaotian let him have his way? He tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, and his body flew backwards with incomparable agility. At the same time, he threw out a few wind blades. The wind blades accurately struck the thick Water Spirit Barrier of the young man in embroidered clothes through the gaps between the shadow ants. The blue ripples on the Water Spirit Armor trembled.
Luo Qian, who was originally crossing his arms in front of his chest, revealed a trace of astonishment. The dense swarm of shadow ants was constantly flying. The speed of Lu Xiaotian's wind blades was not only extremely fast, but also extremely accurate. This was the first time he had seen something like this in his life. Luo Qian's expression darkened. He was very clear about the strength of the young man in embroidered clothes, Zhang Tao. Now that he had lost the opportunity to make the first move and was surrounded by so many shadow ants, he was afraid that he would lose. But soon, Luo Qian thought to himself that it was not a bad idea to make use of Zhang Tao to exhaust some of the shadow ants.
"Damn it, if you have the ability, fight me with real swords and spears. What's the point of hiding behind a swarm of ants?!" Zhang Tao had failed several times to force his way in and was already heavily surrounded by the shadow ants. He could not help but shout in extreme anger.
Idiot, Lu Xiaotian cursed inwardly. Only he had the guts to ask an insect cultivator to fight him in close combat. Lu Xiaotian did not pay attention to him. He just stood a few dozen feet away and controlled the ant swarm. From time to time, he would throw out a few wind blades or earth spikes, causing the Water Spirit Barrier to tremble.
Zhang Tao shouted angrily and wielded his saber with both hands. Suddenly, he slashed out a curtain of saber energy in all directions. The cold saber energy surged wildly in all directions like mercury. In the blink of an eye, forty to fifty shadow ants that were pouncing on the Water Spirit Barrier were sent flying. Among them, more than twenty were directly split into two. Lu Xiaotian's expression was as usual. He did not stay in the Blackwater Stronghold's mine for more than six years for nothing. There were a large number of shadow ants in the Jade Gourd, enough to last him for a long time. The Jade Gourd trembled and dozens of shadow ants flew out, filling up the gap in the encirclement. After a while, Zhang Tao was in imminent danger. His defeat was certain.
At this moment, a bolt of lightning shot up into the sky and enveloped dozens of shadow ants. The shadow ants that were struck by the lightning were charred black. They fell to the ground with a plop, black smoke rising from them. They could not be any more dead. The other shadow ants were also frightened and scattered in all directions.
"Senior Brother Luo, you launched a sneak attack while I was fighting with him. You are really powerful."
Lu Xiaotian looked angry. Although insect practitioners were powerful, thunder practitioners were even rarer. Among the practitioners of the same level, thunder practitioners usually had sharper attacks. Luo Qian was extremely talented and was the top master among the disciples in the Qi Refining stage of the Divine Cloud Palace. Shadow ants alone could not win against him.
"Of course I don't need to use sneak attacks to deal with you. It's just that you are too aggressive. You are just an insect practitioner. You think you can be arrogant by raising a few insects. Now I'll let you know what it means to be arrogant. " Luo Qian did not want to fight, but Lu Xiaotian was indeed difficult to deal with. Zhang Tao had not even gotten close to him, but he had already shown signs of defeat. The other people under him were also no match for him. He had to do it himself. Luo Qian reached out and took out a long spear, which flashed with lightning. He pointed it at Lu Xiaotian. With a crackling sound, the air was filled with a scalp-numbing aura of thunder and lightning.
Lu Xiaotian's figure flashed, and he was already two feet away. The place where he had been standing had already been hit by the lightning, and debris was flying everywhere.
Luo Qian made a sound of surprise. He did not expect Lu Xiaotian to dodge so easily. With his rich combat experience, Luo Qian used his footwork and flew forward. He did not give Lu Xiaotian any chance to move, and swept his long spear.
"Violent Fire Rain!" Lu Xiaotian waved his hands, and a large number of fireballs suddenly appeared behind him. They rained down on Luo Qian. It covered an area of several feet, making it impossible to block.
"You want to stop me with this attack? Dream on!" Luo Qian waved his spear to deflect several fireballs, but he found them annoying. He opened the Thunder Light Shield in front of him, and pushed forward like a bull.
A large number of fireballs hit the Thunder Light Shield, exploding into tiny sparks. It was hard for the people around to watch.
"Senior Brother Luo, be careful!" The young man in embroidered clothes, who had suffered greatly from Lu Xiaotian before, warned loudly.
