The man surnamed Li rolled his eyes and said, "I spoke out of turn. How about this. If we capture the other party, my brothers and I don't want the blue-white glazed stone. We only want the two deer-mouthed grasses. The storage bags of the five people will naturally belong to Brother Lei. But I have to ask Brother Lei to give me this woman." As he said this, he looked at the graceful figure of the woman from Lingxiao Pavilion opposite him, his eyes full of lust.
Lei Zhen laughed heartily. "Brother Li, why didn't you say so earlier? It's settled. Let me show you my methods."
After hearing this, the woman from Lingxiao Pavilion flushed red, gnashed her teeth, and a silver light shot towards the man surnamed Li.
Lei Zhen's eyebrows raised, his bones cracked, and he seemed to have grown taller. Then he shouted loudly, and the flying knife that was originally slow suddenly became as fast as lightning, and slashed on the silver light. With a ding sound, the woman was shocked, and the magic weapon fell directly to the ground. The light dissipated, revealing its true form, which was a four-inch long silver needle. At this moment, the silver needle was completely black, and it seemed to have lost all its spirituality.
The woman from High Heaven Pavilion quickly extended her hand and pointed, but the silver needle showed no reaction. This needle was her unique skill, a mid-grade spiritual weapon, which she usually valued very highly. But who knew it would be easily destroyed by the other party after just one encounter.
The moment she was distracted, a flaw suddenly appeared in the magic circle on the ground. Two demon wolves leaped into the magic circle. The young man from Lingxiao Pavilion flicked his left hand, and a huge fireball smashed the demon wolves directly out of the formation. The young man shouted, "Senior Sister Jing, don't lose your composure, protect the magic circle."
The woman came to her senses and hurriedly took out another formation flag to fill the gap. Lei Zhen laughed wildly, "No formation-breaking method can save you. Let me show you my Lei family's magic sword." He looked up into the air, and the four or five-inch flying knife gradually transformed into a saw-toothed knife about ten feet long. The blade was surrounded by black energy and suddenly slashed down, hitting the center of the formation.
With a loud bang, the eleven formation flags set up by the woman from High Heaven Pavilion exploded simultaneously. The entire formation couldn't withstand the attack of Lei Zhen's magical weapon. Gu Mingcheng and the others turned pale and reached out to grab the jade talisman without thinking twice.
Lei Zhen had naturally anticipated this. "It's too late to leave!" The massive flying knife suddenly split in two, two brilliant streaks of light slicing down Gu Mingcheng's waist. Gu Mingcheng didn't have time to draw his jade talisman, so he hurriedly combined the eight flying knives into one and tried his best to block the attack. Two Tai Chi disciples nearby also pulled out a small jade fan and a small crimson shield, each of which blocked the attack.
At this moment, the young man from Lingxiao Pavilion snorted coldly, opened his hand, and a thin handkerchief flew out. The handkerchief scattered five colors of blue, yellow, green, purple and blue in the air. Lei Zhen's huge and sharp magic knife cut on the silk handkerchief as thin as a cicada's wing, but was bounced back silently.
Lei Zhen exclaimed, "Five-colored Smoke and Cloud Handkerchief! How can this kid have such a treasure?" He recognized that this was a top-grade spiritual weapon, and its reputation was no less than his own Law-Breaking Flying Knife.
The young man from the High Heaven Pavilion ignored him, pouring his mana into the silk handkerchief. Senior Sister Jing raised her hands and cast another magic circle around the handkerchief. Lei Zhen had been overconfident earlier, but he couldn't let it go. With a fierce expression, he said, "Hey, let me see how much mana you have to withstand the consumption of this top-grade magic weapon." He was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, while the young man was only an eighth-level Qi Refining disciple. Naturally, his mana was far inferior. The Law-Breaking Flying Knife transformed into bursts of black energy, continuously striking down at the silk handkerchief magic circle.
The battle between the four parties was stalemate again, but it was obvious that Lei Zhen's side had the upper hand.
At this moment, Shi Feng's mind was also in a fierce struggle. The entrance to the cave where the Tianyu Grass was located was not far behind the fighting crowd. What should he do? He should have helped Gu Mingcheng and the others, but his strength was limited. The battlefield below was too far away, out of the range of the long arrows. Even if he risked getting closer and launching a sneak attack, he could only injure one person at most. If Lei Zhen noticed and swung his sword at him, he would be dead.
Even if he helped Gu Mingcheng drive away Lei Zhen and the other two, with Gu Mingcheng and the other four people here, he couldn't just go and get the Tianyu Grass.
I think the safest way is to stay away from them and wait for them to finish fighting, then you can leave naturally. As for who wins or loses, you really have no control over it.
Thinking of this, he bent down and wanted to leave. The white fox suddenly said, "Boy, don't leave yet." Shi Feng asked, "Why?" The white fox asked, "Isn't the rain grass on the left side of the valley, under the purple locust tree?" Shi Feng said, "Yes, there are weeds as tall as a person under the tree, and the cave entrance is hidden in the grass."
The white fox said, "Okay, listen to me. Now we'll go around to the left and wait on the hillside next to the purple locust tree." Shi Feng said, "We're too close to them. Even if others don't tell them, Lei Zhen will definitely notice us." The white fox said, "Don't worry, I will cast my magic with all my strength. With the illusion skills of our Sky Fox clan, a mere Qi Refining disciple won't be able to detect us."
Shi Feng asked, "Master Hu, do you mean that while they're fighting, we should go straight into the cave?" The white fox replied, "No, I can cover your tracks, but if you want to get into the cave, you'll have to pull through the weeds and alert them. And you're not a Jindan cultivator, so how can you teleport?" Shi Feng asked, "Then what's your intention, Master Hu?"
White Fox said, "Huh, do you think it's just a few of those juniors fighting down there? Hehe, there's actually a powerful demon beast hiding nearby, they just don't know about it." Shi Feng said, "Demon beast? I haven't noticed it either."
The white fox said, "Although your spiritual sense is not weak, this monster is proficient in earth escape and is hiding underground, so you naturally don't know it. Let's go, the monster will come out soon."
Shi Feng's spirits lifted upon hearing this. He immediately walked to the left from the edge of the valley, circling around to a slope a dozen feet away from the purple locust tree. Seeing that Lei Zhen and the others were still fighting fiercely and hadn't noticed him at all, Shi Feng asked, "Master Hu, what should we do next?"
The white fox said, "This demon wolf is quite patient. It seems that it wants to reap the benefits. Let's help it. Ten steps to the left of the purple locust tree, do you see a piece of dead branch protruding from the ground?" Shi Feng took a closer look and saw that there was indeed a half-foot-long dead branch mixed in a pile of broken wood and weeds, which was inconspicuous.
The white fox said, "Shoot the dead branch with all your strength." Shi Feng obeyed, bowed his bow to full moon, and shot an arrow right into the dead branch. As soon as he shot the arrow, Lei Zhen immediately felt it, put away his knife and stepped back a foot, shouting, "Who is it? Hiding there!"
Before he finished speaking, the soil on the ground shook and a monster emerged. The monster seemed to be a monster wolf, but its body was smaller than that of an ordinary monster wolf. The strange thing was that this little wolf had a five or six inch sharp horn growing on its nose.
Shi Feng didn't recognize it and asked, "What kind of monster is this?" The white fox said, "This is called the Rhino Dog Earth Wolf. It's best at burrowing underground. It usually hides underground and likes to eat rotten things. Don't be fooled by its small size. Hehe, it has a very ferocious temperament. This earth wolf has actually reached the Foundation Establishment stage. Those Qi Refining disciples are in trouble."
Shi Feng was surprised to hear that this ground wolf was actually a Foundation Establishment Stage monster. The black eagle and the giant colorful eagle he had seen were both Foundation Establishment Stage monsters, and even Qin Bing was no match for them.
At this time, Lei Zhen and others also realized that the aura of this monster was unfathomable, and they all looked terrified. When the Earth Wolf was discovered, it first looked around, trying to find the person who had just shot an arrow at it, but after all, it had not yet opened its spiritual intelligence and its spiritual awareness was not strong. After looking around, it did not notice the White Fox and Shi Feng.
It shook its head, suddenly roared, and rushed towards Lei Zhen and others.
The disciple surnamed Li from the Myriad Beasts Villa whistled hastily, and two demonic tigers leaped up, their four massive claws revealing three-inch-long blades as they clawed at the wolf's belly. The wolf ducked its head, and the sharp horn on its nose swung, instantly severing both front claws of one demonic tiger. The other demonic tiger's sharp claws, catching the wolf's belly, failed to achieve its goal, and was instead thrown three feet away by a tremendous force.
The earth wolf suddenly rushed into the group of monsters, waving its sharp horns, like an indestructible sharp blade. In an instant, the python broke into several pieces and the monster bear's head fell off. Lei Zhen and others changed their faces. Lei Zhen gritted his teeth, and the magic-breaking sword flew into the air. A black air slashed towards the earth wolf. The earth wolf suddenly roared, and the sound shook the whole valley. Sand and rocks flew, and a yellow cloud, mixed with countless fist-sized stones and soil, rushed towards the magic-breaking sword.
Lei Zhen was shocked and quickly reached out to recall the sword. He saw that there were two big gaps on the blade. He was shocked and hurt. Seeing that the wolf opened its mouth to roar again, he turned around and ran away without caring about anything else.
The others didn't dare to fight back and fled in their separate ways. A Taiji Sect disciple ran while rejoicing, "Senior Brother Gu, Senior Brother Mu, this is all thanks to this monster." Before he could finish his words, the soil under his feet loosened and a ground wolf jumped out, biting his throat. The disciple was thrown to the ground and kicked around, trying desperately to push the ground wolf away. The ground wolf's eyes were bloodshot and its hair stood up. It swung hard and bit the disciple's throat off, sending his head flying far away.
At this time, Gu Mingcheng and others only wished their parents had given them two more legs. They sacrificed their flying talismans and speed talismans and fled desperately. Senior Brother Mu even took out the jade talisman while running, crushed it, and was teleported out of Qianhu Cave Heaven in a flash.
While the earth wolves were chasing Lei Zhen, Gu Mingcheng, and the others, Shi Feng had already sneaked under the purple locust tree and carefully searched among the weeds. Sure enough, he found a hole hidden in the grass, about half a man's height. Shi Feng became a little worried. "Could this be the earth wolf's lair? It would be bad if there were still earth wolves in there." The white fox urged, "Let's go quickly. This earth wolf is making too much noise. Be careful not to attract others. Earth wolves usually hide underground and don't have any nests. I've used my spiritual sense to detect this place, and there are no other monsters."
Shi Feng gritted his teeth, lay down and crawled towards the cave entrance. The entrance was narrow and Shi Feng's whole body was almost stuck. However, the air in the cave was not too stuffy. It was just full of weeds and gravel, which was very prickly. Shi Feng used the nameless body refining technique and his skin immediately became as hard as steel, but he was not afraid.
After climbing for more than ten feet, the cave became higher and higher, and finally he could stand up. The cave was not completely dark, and there was a faint light coming through. Shi Feng looked carefully and saw that it was actually a karst cave. The ceiling of the cave was covered with sharp stalagmites. There was the sound of dripping water, and there was a faint light coming through the cave, which clearly showed that there was an exit on the other side.
The cave was winding and had many side holes. Shi Feng took a quick look and saw no rain grass inside. Liu Yunzi had explained that the rain grass was in one of the side holes, but there was no specific marking. Shi Feng could only explore each hole one by one.
At this moment, a long howl was heard outside the valley, followed by a series of loud noises. The white fox said, "Oh no, a master is coming." Shi Feng asked in surprise, "What should we do?" The white fox said, "Don't worry, no Jindan-level masters have entered Qianhu Cave Heaven, so they won't be able to find you. I will give you all my support, so hurry up and find you."
