Seeing the dark clouds rolling in the distance like huge waves, Jiang Wen had a plan in mind. The ferocious beast roared and chased after him, and several bolts of lightning struck towards him.
With a leap, he dodged the lightning before it could touch him. Then, he tore off a piece of cloth from his body, bit his finger while fleeing, wrote a talisman with his blood, and stuck it on the big tree under his feet.

Repeating this process, Jiang Wen set up a formation within a radius of dozens of miles around a forest.
When the dark clouds surged overhead, he stood on a large tree, watching the furious beast rushing towards him.
The ferocious beast looked at Jiang Wen, feeling that this man was finally exhausted. A cruel joy appeared in its eyes, preparing for a feast. It pounced towards Jiang Wen, only to see Jiang Wen standing in place, looking at it with a smile.
He opened his mouth and laughed: "Fool."
Then, he formed a hand seal and shouted to the sky: "Lightning, come!"
Millions of angry thunderbolts instantly fell, like blooming ancient trees in the sky, all concentrated on the ferocious beast in an instant.
Even though this ferocious beast could manipulate lightning, it was still heavily struck at this moment. After all, no matter how strong its own supernatural powers were, they were still its own, and compared with the power of heaven and earth, it was obviously much inferior.
The ferocious beast struggled in every possible way, but in the end, it could only let out a miserable scream and fall to the ground.
"You beast, no matter how great your supernatural powers are, you can't resist the will of heaven," Jiang Wen cursed.
This beast had been chasing him for a long time, but he couldn't find a way to break its supernatural powers and body. After all, its body was too fierce, and the wounds pierced by the spear before had already healed. Its thunderous supernatural powers were awe-inspiring, and coupled with the fact that Jiang Wen's cultivation had only recovered a little, he couldn't do anything to this guy.
Later, seeing the unusual appearance of the sky, he knew that a storm was coming. He intended to use the power of heaven and earth to break the ferocious beast's body. Therefore, he used the surrounding ancient trees to set up a formation, which could be considered as injuring the ferocious beast.
Seeing the ferocious beast falling to the ground, Jiang Wen would naturally not let go of this opportunity. He mobilized the magic power in his abdomen and leaped towards the ferocious beast, taking advantage of the falling momentum.
Like a cannonball, he directly hit the ferocious beast's belly, followed by continuous attacks like a tidal wave.
"Die!"
A fist of refined bone burst out, and magic power gathered on his arm.
Like the collapse of the sky and the sinking of the earth, a spark collided with the world. A single blow directly penetrated the ferocious beast's weak abdomen, causing its blood to stain the earth.
The ferocious beast roared and struggled, trying to make a final resistance. However, how could Jiang Wen give it a chance? He added a few more punches, brutally beating the ferocious beast to death.
Looking at the bloody head, Jiang Wen breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that the beast had lost its breath. Carrying the ferocious beast on his back, he slowly walked towards the place where the group of people was.
The guard was still bandaging his wounds in place, even though the ferocious beast had already gone far away. He still couldn't leave here with the people.
The princess's injuries were quite serious and she needed to heal on the spot, and the twelve imperial guards who had originally followed to protect her had already died, leaving only him.
Now he was also seriously injured and could hardly move half a step. Instead of taking the risk of leaving here, it was better to rest temporarily within the territory of this ferocious beast. Because of the deterrence of the ferocious beast, not many beasts appeared here.
The woman who had fallen on the ground leaned against a stone wall, opened her eyes, and looked at the guard. She opened her mouth and said something, and the guard limped over and respectfully saluted her.
Before the two could finish speaking, a ferocious beast fell from the sky and smashed heavily in front of them. The woman and the guard's heartbeats slowed down, their faces frightened pale. But seeing that the ferocious beast's head was bloody and had already lost its breath, the two breathed a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, Jiang Wen descended from the sky and landed on the ferocious beast. He stepped on the ferocious beast's head with one foot, and rested his hand on his knee, looking down at the two.
"Hello," he greeted.
"… …" The woman.
"… …" The guard.
Seeing that Jiang Wen was talking to them, the two babbled a lot.
Jiang Wen didn't understand a word, but he could see some things from the other party's expression. These two were probably thanking him for his help and asking his name.
Language barrier made it difficult to communicate, but this was not a difficult task for Jiang Wen now.
He took a leaf and used his finger as a pen. He drew a rune on the leaf, then rolled it up and swallowed it. He closed his eyes and meditated, tapping his ears and philtrum with his hands.
The master and servant on the side were confused, not knowing what this person was going to do.
"What is he doing?" the woman asked puzzled.
"Princess, this subordinate is not very clear either. Perhaps it is some kind of witchcraft ritual from Nanqi, but it won't be harmful to us," the guard said respectfully.
"That's right," the woman nodded, her expression very calm. She looked at Jiang Wen, carefully examining his face.
"He is not from Taicang. He does look like someone from Nanqi," the woman said after observing for a long time. "I heard that the Nanqi people fought a battle with the foreign tribes in the west and suffered a terrible defeat."
"What is this, sir?" The woman was very surprised, not understanding how this person could suddenly speak in a way that they could understand.
"Just a little trick," Jiang Wen smiled. This spell is called Tong Ting, which allows one to understand any information exchange. However, each time it is used, it can only understand one language and cannot accommodate all words.
"You! You are a cultivator?!" The woman looked a little panicked, looking at Jiang Wen with unease in her eyes. Her tone was a little more anxious, seemingly having some kind of invisible fear of the word "cultivator."
"Cultivator? I guess so."
Jiang Wen didn't expect to hear this word here, he looked at the woman and the guard's clothes, simple and monotonous but also showing exquisiteness. Just now, listening to the two of them talking, the woman should be a person of status.
He also heard the word Taicang, which could not help but make him think of some things. His bizarre guesses also had a bit more evidence in the midst of inadvertence.
With a sincere look, Jiang Wen asked the two of them: "Where are you from, and where are you going? I don't remember the past clearly, and I don't know where this is."
"Looking at your dress, you should be from Nanqi. I am the thirteenth princess of the Ming King of Taicang. This is the old land, and we also strayed into this place," the woman answered Jiang Wen's question, staring at him for a long time. "Are you saying that you have forgotten your past?"
"Yes," Jiang Wen smiled frankly. "I have been here for seven or eight days. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't know when I could get out."
"I know how to get out, why don't you follow me for now?" The woman immediately extended an invitation to him.
"Okay," Jiang Wen agreed without hesitation.
