"Run!"
Seeing the Rock Lion ferociously pouncing towards them, it was unknown who shouted. Everyone took to their heels at the same time. Each and every one of them was terrified and heartbroken. They only wished that their parents had given them two more legs. Even Li Zhaojing, who had performed well earlier, was the same.
This was Li Zhaojing's third time in the forbidden space, but he had never reached the end.
Before coming this time, he had made up his mind that he would not retreat until he obtained the ancestor's inheritance.
But at this moment, when he saw a bloodthirsty and berserk mid-stage Class 3 Ferocious Beast pouncing towards him, that terrifying aura that suffocated him caused his heart to be instantly filled with fear. The determination he had when he came had long since been thrown out of the window. At this moment, he only wanted to flee far away and survive.
Lin Xuan watched this scene from the Illusory Demon Orb and shook his head in disdain. With these cowards, they would never see the bronze man at the end in their next lives.
In the blink of an eye, everyone had fled hundreds of meters away. Li Mojun, who had been walking at the back, was now standing in front of everyone, facing the Rock Lion directly.
Li Mojun was also very nervous at this moment. Her small hand gripped her long sword tightly as cold sweat broke out on the tip of her nose.
However, she stubbornly refused to take a step back. Seeing that the Rock Lion was getting closer and closer, she gritted her teeth and suddenly flew up. Her Bathed Flame sword shot out a ten meter long sword beam, and with the momentum of a mountain, it fiercely slashed at the Rock Lion.
Chi —
The sword aura broke through the air and seemed to cut the sky in two. It was unstoppable.
"Roar!"
The Rock Lion was not afraid at all. It opened its big mouth and pounced, its fierce aura swallowing the sky and earth.
Bang!
The sword aura slashed at the Rock Lion's head and exploded into sparks.
However, Li Mojun's all-out attack only caused the Rock Lion to fall from the sky to the ground. It only left a shallow sword mark on its head, which was as hard as metal.
The Rock Lion fell to the ground after being hit by the sword. Its injury was very light, but it became even more furious. It pressed its front paws and jumped up again, pouncing at Li Mojun with a roar. It was as fierce as before.
At this moment, Li Mojun's expression was extremely solemn. She waved her sword fiercely while displaying her ingenious movement technique to avoid the Rock Lion's attack.
She dodged the Rock Lion's claws by a hair's breadth, but her dress was carelessly burned by the Rock Lion's flames. Her long hair was also somewhat scorched, and she looked very embarrassed.
The Rock Lion's attacks were ferocious as it pounced on her continuously. Li Mojun could only rely on her body movements to deal with it.
Bang bang bang —
Roar roar roar ~
As Li Mojun dodged, she repeatedly waved her sword, leaving deep and shallow sword marks on the Rock Lion's body.
However, these injuries were nothing to the Rock Lion. Instead, they aroused the Rock Lion's ferocious nature, causing her to feel more and more pressure. Her expression became more and more anxious, and she was almost injured several times. Her movement technique became somewhat disordered.
At this rate, defeat was only a matter of time.
Those disciples of the Li Family who had escaped were all standing in the distance in shock as they watched the battle. Now that they saw that Li Mojun was unable to deal with the Rock Lion and was in imminent danger, their faces couldn't help but turn pale as thoughts of retreating emerged in their hearts.
It wasn't safe for them to stand in the distance. From time to time, first and second level ferocious beasts would crawl out from the ground and ambush them.
A few unlucky fellows fell into the trap, and one of them was even dragged into a crack in the ground by a fire python. Mournful screams rang out from several miles away.
Under the threat of death, the rest of the people turned around and fled along the path they came from, completely giving up on this trial.
Li Zhaojing was originally hesitant, wondering if he should help Li Mojun kill the ferocious beasts.
But when he saw that his companions had all fled, his heart was finally overcome by fear.
"The Patriarch is right. The men of the Li Family, even if they don't walk the Crafting Method, there are other paths to walk!"
"I, Li Zhaojing's martial arts talent isn't weak. I can walk another path! It's fine if I don't walk the Crafting Method! "
Li Zhaojing gritted his teeth and finally made a decision.
He shouted at Li Mojun, "Xiaojun, take care. We'll leave first!"
With that, he turned around and ran.
Relying on his Divine Astral Realm cultivation, he ran faster than anyone else and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In a moment, all the disciples of the Li Family had run away, leaving only Li Mojun fighting alone.
Li Mojun had no time to care about her family. Even if she wanted to escape now, she couldn't. The Rock Lion's speed wasn't slow. If she turned around and ran for her life, it would be even more dangerous.
She steadied her mind and struggled to deal with the Rock Lion. Gradually, she was dripping with sweat and her face was a little pale.
"Sigh."
Just as Li Mojun's situation was getting more and more dangerous and she was gradually unable to hold on, a sigh suddenly sounded.
Suddenly, there was an additional figure beside Li Mojun and the Rock Lion.
Li Mojun's expression changed and she said in a low voice, "Ning Que, I can't hold on anymore. Hurry up and run!"
Lin Xuan's expression was indifferent. He shook his head and chuckled. "Actually, you can defeat it."
Li Mojun and the Rock Lion were about the same realm. As the young lady of the Li Family, Li Mojun's combat skills weren't low. She had both Earth-class and Heaven-class combat skills.
If she could go through more training and have more fighting experience, it shouldn't be difficult to kill a Ferocious Beast of the same realm.
However, she was born in a stable and peaceful capital and had the protection of her family. She rarely fought with others and didn't have the opportunity to train.
"Don't say such sarcastic words. If you don't want to die, hurry up and run!" Li Mojun shouted angrily.
But at this moment, the Rock Lion actually gave up on Li Mojun and turned to pounce on Lin Xuan, as if it wanted to pick up a soft persimmon first.
"Ning Que, watch out!"
Li Mojun's expression changed greatly. She was already at a disadvantage and now it was too late to save Lin Xuan. She could only watch as Lin Xuan died under the Rock Lion's claws.
She didn't believe that Lin Xuan, a True Element Realm martial artist, could block the attack of a Third-Order Ferocious Beast. She couldn't help but feel anxious.
However, the development of the next thing was beyond her expectations.
Seeing the Rock Lion pouncing on him, Lin Xuan didn't panic and didn't intend to dodge. He pushed his hands and summoned his War Soul, the Murky Sky Demon Hammer.
Weng!
The void trembled.
A black Demon Hammer the size of a human head smashed toward the Rock Lion's head with a mysterious aura. As soon as the Demon Hammer appeared, it was as if the world was inexplicably chaotic. The aura was mixed and very strange.
Bang!
There was an explosion!
The Murky Sky Demon Hammer hit the Rock Lion's head, and suddenly the Rock Lion's pouncing figure paused slightly.
Although this blow didn't smash the Rock Lion's head, it made the Rock Lion's head a mess. Its head was filled with a mixture of water, fire, ice, and wind. Even its head was a little dizzy.
However, the power of the Murky Sky Demon Hammer stopped there. After all, Lin Xuan's Yuan Qi cultivation was a realm lower than the Rock Lion's. It was difficult to injure it.
The Rock Lion only paused for a moment before regaining consciousness. Its angry and bloodthirsty eyes locked onto Lin Xuan and pounced on him again.
Lin Xuan wasn't disappointed. He smiled slightly and leaped up, throwing a punch at the Rock Lion that was pouncing on him!
Boom!
With this punch, the void suddenly collapsed. It was as if the entire world couldn't withstand the power of this punch and almost exploded.
The Rock Lion pouncing on Lin Xuan's fist happened to collide with it. Its hard skull, which couldn't be damaged by swords and was impervious to water and fire, actually exploded.
Bang!
The Rock Lion's huge head exploded into gravel and curling flames. It fell to the ground with a crackling sound. The mountain-like corpse fell to the ground with a loud crash, stirring up dust in the air.
"How … how is this possible!"
Li Mojun couldn't help but be stunned. She looked at Lin Xuan and the Rock Lion's corpse on the ground in disbelief.
Although she had seen Ning Que knock out Bai Yifan with one punch and knew that Ning Que had some strength, she thought that it was mainly caused by Bai Yifan's carelessness and underestimation of the enemy.
At this moment, Ning Que fiercely refreshed her understanding.
That powerful Rock Lion, which even she, an expert in the middle level of the God Gang Realm, was no match for, was blown up by Ning Que with one punch. It was really hard for her to believe, but she had to believe it.
After the shock, Li Mojun's eyes gradually became vigilant. She asked aloud, "You are obviously powerful, but you are so low-key and forbearing. What is your purpose?"
Lin Xuan smiled calmly and said, "Don't you already know my purpose? As for why I am low-key and forbearing, this is just my way of survival. As a martial artist, I naturally have to keep some trump cards to live for a long time. "
Li Mojun stared straight at Lin Xuan with her beautiful eyes, as if she wanted to see through his inner thoughts.
However, Lin Xuan looked calm, so she couldn't see anything. She could only reluctantly accept Lin Xuan's explanation.
"Let's go. I have other things to do when I go back. I can't stay here for too long."
Lin Xuan said casually. He used the Space-Breaking Flash and rushed forward, ignoring the various fierce beasts hidden in the dark.
The day after tomorrow was the day of the Daqian dynasty's sacrificial ceremony. He still had to leave some time to go to the palace and meet up with Yu Tianxing. He really didn't have much time to waste.
Li Mojun frowned and hesitated for a moment. Then, she silently followed him.
After that, Li Mojun became more and more frightened as she walked. She used her movement skill to the extreme to barely keep up with Lin Xuan's footsteps.
Naturally, there were many fierce beasts that rushed out to block the way. However, Lin Xuan didn't do anything, and those fierce beasts all died tragically.
Soon, the ground was littered with the corpses of many fierce beasts. There were even some third-level and late-level fierce beasts among them.
Li Mojun's expression became more and more shocked. She looked at Lin Xuan's back with a very complicated expression.
Over the years, countless members of the Li family had come to this forbidden area. They had already found a relatively safe path.
Li Mojun originally wanted to tell Lin Xuan about this path, but now it seemed that it was unnecessary.
She silently followed behind Lin Xuan. The dangers in front of them were all swept away by Lin Xuan. No fierce beasts could come within a hundred meters of them. Their path was unimpeded.
Gradually, a strange feeling arose in Li Mojun's heart.
Looking at the burly and determined figure in front of her, she felt an unprecedented sense of security. It was as if as long as she stood behind him, she didn't have to worry about any danger.
This was a feeling that the Li family had never given her. Her father and grandfather had never given her this feeling. Bai Yifan had never given her this feeling.
She didn't expect that this mysterious Ning Que would give her this feeling that she had been longing for since she was young.
This feeling was very strange, and it made her very infatuated, even if she didn't want to admit it.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound.
Unknowingly, Lin Xuan stopped in his tracks and looked around.
