ding several ethereal sword qi into the flying snow. Lu Xiaotian turned and continued walking towards the Hou Mansion. After a long time, behind him the undulating snowy mountains trembled, with tower...As the pressure mounted, Yuan Hao was still holding his ground. His Lie Yang Sword was as sharp as ever, swiftly and cleanly dispatching the ambushing monsters. 。Su Qing's silver axe was not as sharp as the blazing sun sword, so she had to sacrifice another silver sword to deal with the increasing number of fang fish. 。However, Wu Yan's situation is not as good as Su Qing's. That long spear is alright, it can be used somehow, but her usual red ring is less effective in this situation compared to swords or other bladed weapons against creatures like Dog-toothed Fish and Mud Crocodiles. 。These swamp beasts have extremely strong vitality. 。If you cannot kill it with one strike, even if you wound it severely, it is very easy to be retaliated against. 。"Quaa!" A massive mud-covered frog shot out its sticky tongue, wrapping around Wu Yan's pant leg. Wu Yan yelped in surprise and controlled the red ring to blast the giant frog to death. 。Although the giant frog is dead, its extremely sticky tongue is still wrapped around Wu Yan's pant leg. 。 。Wu Yan killed two of them in a hurry, leaping up to avoid the attacks of the other two canine fish. Unexpectedly, her foot was still stuck with the giant frog's long serpent. 。Wu Yan leaped several feet away, eyeing a patch of grass nearby to use as leverage, but the massive frog weighing hundreds of pounds held her back. She was unable to leverage herself in mid-air and had to contend with the two remaining fangfish at the same time. Even with her Wind Control technique, she couldn't lift the hundreds of pounds of frog beneath her feet. 。

Beneath your feet lies murky silt. Should you fall in, facing the horde of monstrous beasts that swarm, the chance of escape would be infinitesimal.

Wu Yan's face was pale. She hadn't expected that she would accidentally fall into such a dangerous situation. 。Su Qing was startled. She had to deal with four fangfish at the same time, as well as two black spiders the size of washbasins attacking her. She couldn't free up her hands for a moment. 。He also glanced at Lu Xiaitian's side, which was about the same. 。Yuan Hao was at the front, a distance away from Wu Yan. He might not be able to help in time, and after their recent argument, Yuan Hao probably wouldn't even bother trying to save her. 。"Don't worry, just get up immediately after falling." 。Lu XiaTian let out a low growl. 。Wu Yan didn't understand Lu Xiaoteng's meaning. The ground below was mud, and she did want to use his strength, but where could she get it from As she was about to fall, a cold air passed under her feet, and with a whoosh... 。"This, this is the Ice Technique and Wind Blade Technique!" Wu Yan's foot touched the mud, and the mud under her foot suddenly hardened, while the giant frog's long tongue was also severed by a wind blade. 。Suddenly overjoyed, Wu Yan struck down the remaining two canine fish with all her might. After a moment of grateful contemplation towards Lu Xia Tian, she

At this time, Yuan Hao, who was leading the charge, also kept a close eye on Lu Xia Tian and his companions. He couldn't help but be suspicious of Su Qing's newly acquired weaponry. 。Moreover, Yuan Hao was astonished by Lu Xiaitian's ability to not only use two different magical weapons to slay the monster beasts but also to precisely cast two spells with remaining strength. He thought to himself, if he were in Lu Xiaitian's place, he probably wouldn't be able to do it. 。It seems that the process of cultivating the mysterious art of fissure is painful, but after being tempered, the harvest gained is also huge. 。>He could control two weapons at the same time, and in the gaps between attacks, he could release spirit beasts. 。I can't do anything else, but I'm currently doing very well. 。...and you can still cast spells at will... 。If he wasn't trying to hide his strength, Lu Xia Tian could now use three weapons at the same time. 。The main soul controls two, and the deputy soul controls one. 。Although there is no more room for improvement in cultivation level, his strength has made astonishing progress compared to before practicing the Mysterious Art of Splintering. 。Of the three, only Su Qing seemed unfazed by Lu Xiaoteng's astonishing display. She had long witnessed his prodigious talent in lower-level spells. 。In the mire, brain-sized spiders, packs of dozen teeth fish, ferocious mud crocodiles, and pythons stretching two to three meters long emerge one after another. 。The four of them charged forward, though no one was injured, the consumption of medium-grade spirit stones was incredibly fast. 。Even though Yuan Hao had the sharp blade of the Sun-Burning Sword, he still had to simultaneously wield two other magical artifacts. 。Among the group, Yuan Hao was naturally the fastest at killing demonic beasts. The sharpness of his Blazing Sun Sword surpassed that of any ordinary magical artifact. 。However, Yuan Hao had also let go of his arrogant heart at this time. Although the three of Lu Xia Tian appeared to be no match for him on the surface in terms of strength, 。However, Lu Xiaitian continuously released spells to assist Su Qing and Su Yan while slaying the monsters. 。Though it was merely a simple freezing spell, controlling two magical artifacts at the same time and precisely focusing mana within a minuscule range provided Wu Yan and Su Qing with far greater assistance than if he had directly intervened to slay the demonic beasts. 。After all, in such a quagmire, the most feared thing is getting stuck in the mud. Sometimes, even when stepping on a patch of grass, you are always worried that the grass beneath your feet will not hold your weight. 。Sometimes, to avoid being surrounded by a large number of monsters, they had to change locations. In the mud, many places that couldn't be used for leverage originally, because of Lu Xia Tian's spells, became places where they could use leverage to jump to other locations, giving them more options for both attack and retreat. 。There were even times when, because of the chaotic battle, Su Qing and Wu Yan both stepped into empty space, almost falling into the mud. They didn't call out to Lu Xia Tian for help, but Lu Xia Tian's spells always seemed to arrive under their feet like divine assistance. 。It felt like Lu Xia Tian was always watching their fight, no matter what. 。Although they didn't know exactly how Lu Xia Tian had done it, they felt a newfound sense of security. 。Without any worries, Su Qing and Wu Yan's abilities were displayed more freely. The three of them killed the monsters much faster than Yuan Hao. 。Under their tacit understanding, they managed to surpass Yuan Hao in a short amount of time. 。“See, this is the strength of Senior Brother Lu and his group. It's only right that our Lingxiao Palace gets a bit more share.” 。“Seeing Lu Xiaoteng and his three companions' momentum surge forward, six magical instruments took turns striking, a large number of attacking monsters were slashed and killed one after another. Zhu Yuchun and another young cultivator named Zhou Xian watched with excitement, their faces beaming as they showed off to the disciples of Gujianzong beside them.” 。When it comes to one-on-one combat, no one can match our Brother Yuan. However, they have the advantage of numbers. 。A female disciple of the Gu Jian Sect snorted discontentedly, refuting. 。Even over such a short distance, just a few hundred paces, an ordinary person could easily cover it in the blink of an eye. 。However, hundreds of monsters have already rushed over along the way. If it weren't for Yuan Hao and the others who had almost all reached the peak of Qi Refining disciples, if they were six or seven ordinary elite disciples, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to make it halfway before having to return defeated. 。Even if one were exceptionally skilled, it would take over two hours to walk and detour across this distance of several hundred meters. 。"Roar!" As Yuan Hao and Su Qing leaped towards the patch of purple vines amidst the rocky rubble almost simultaneously, a monstrous skeletal beast, resembling a reef in darkness, with a lion's head and a crocodile's body, emerged... 。There are also two large front paws. 。Ferocious and terrifying, a menacing aura erupted from this demonic beast like a whirlwind. 。Dozens of black, skull-sized spiders that had rapidly crawled up from the mud, along with various monsters like canine fish and caimans killed in the struggle, scattered like startled deer. 。“Carcass Lion Crocodile Demon!” Yuan Hao cried out in alarm. 。

Lu Xia Tian was also taken aback, but quickly let out a breath. The Lion Crocodile Demon was a growth-type demon beast, and when it grew to adulthood, it was a sixth-rank demon beast equivalent to a cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

But judging by the size of this corpse lion crocodile in front of us, it should still be in its juvenile stage. It's just unknown what reason caused it to fall here and become a soulless corpse demon. It seems there must be a story behind this. 。In the end, thankfully this corpse lion crocodile demon hadn't reached adulthood yet, otherwise all four of them would have been finished here, there wouldn't be any suspense at all. 。No wonder so many monsters and beasts surrounded this place, these twenty or so purple ginseng plants could grow to be hundreds of years old. It turns out that a corpse lion crocodile monster was guarding them here. 。"This corpse lion crocodile demon hasn't grown up yet, it still has a fight left in it. Wu Yan, you'll be responsible for collecting purple orchids later, and then join Su Qing to clear the path and prepare to retreat. Yuan brother, stay with me and hold back this corpse lion crocodile demon, how about that" Lu Xia Tian swallowed a drop of cold marrow dew directly, retracted his curved knife, and directly sacrificed the golden sword magic weapon he had taken from Du Gu Han. 。When the golden saber appeared, a wave of sharp and piercing energy surged outward. While the Fiery Sun Sword emanated a burning flame capable of melting everything, the golden saber instilled an unparalleled sense of sharpness. 。Compared with the Burning Sun Sword, they each have their own strengths. 。He's such a miser, it took him forever to finally show off some real skill. 。Su Qing muttered to herself. 。“This, this is Dugu Han’s Earth-Splitting Blade. How could the Earth-Splitting Blade be in your hands” Yuan Hao exclaimed in disbelief. In the desolate land, he had witnessed Dugu Han's prowess firsthand. Regarding those who could rival him and Dugu Han’s weapons, how could he not know 。That chillingly sharp aura, he would never forget it. 。“Only when we fight our way out can I say these things. Zi Luo ginseng, I want two more!” 陸小天 said coldly with a displeased face, The Shattering Earth Blade was indeed a good name. Originally, he didn't intend to use this blade, but the corpse lion crocodile demon in front of him, although underage, was formidable, its strength somewhere between a third and fourth-order monster. Facing such a beast, especially in such an unfavorable terrain, being overly reserved with his strength would be tantamount to courting death. 。"Haha, good, then let's join forces to have a go at this Corpse Lion Crocodile Demon!" Yuan Hao laughed in response, his heart filled with boundless courage. The surface of the Lieyang Sword blazed with a burst of flame, circling around the Corpse Lion Crocodile Demon before slashing down sharply from its lion head. 。As for Lu Xiaoteng's request for two more purple ginseng, Yuan Hao didn't have too much resentment in his heart. After all, before this, he only regarded Lu Xiaoteng as a cultivator of the same level as Su Qing and Wu Yan 。While he is still ultimately inferior, the other party's current strength is almost on par with his. In this Lingxiao Palace, their strength can completely overwhelm the ancient sword sect. 。Yuan Hao was just surprised that Lingxiao Palace had such a young and powerful Qi cultivator. He didn't know anything about it. 。Lu Xiaotian controlled the golden saber, striking upward from below, aiming to cut directly through the corpse lion crocodile demon's abdomen and deliver a fatal blow. 。Besides, Xiaobai Jian and Yuan Hao each attacked the Corpse Lion Crocodile Demon's left and right forelimbs with their green three-pointed double-edged swords. 。Four weapons, attacking from different directions. 。Yuan Hao and Lu Xia Tian both fought with all their might. 。To everyone's surprise, despite its massive size, the Corpse Lion Crocodile Demon was incredibly agile. Its two front paws moved like phantoms, snatching both Xiao Hei Jian and San Jian Liang Mian Dao, the two magical weapons, in one swift grab. 。Although the Black Sword and the double-edged trident pierced through the rotting flesh of the corpse lion crocodile demon, this type of corpse demon beast could not feel pain. Therefore, it was extraordinarily terrifying to fight. 。Lu Xia Tian's heart skipped a beat. The Lion Crocodile demon was already terrifying enough, but to become this kind of corrupted corpse monster, it was even more formidable. Its physique had become unbelievably strong, even surpassing the massive blood shadow demon in the desolate land. 。Hand-to-hand combat with magical weapons 。The carrion lion crocodile swung its powerful, thick tail in a horizontal sweep, targeting the two intruders who had dared to enter its territory. 。In the mire, a tremendous storm arose, whipping up clouds of mud and fetid water. 。Yuan Hao also had a look of surprise on his face, but he and Lu Xiaoteng were both rich in fighting experience. They jumped up from their original positions. 。"Ice Art!"Mud swept across the sky, six or seven chunks successively froze into ice. 。"Thanks!" Yuan Hao shouted, and at the same time, his fear of Lu Xiaitian deepened. Even in this dangerous situation, he still had the time to cast spells. This person was truly unfathomable. 。Yuan Hao and Lu Xia Tian both leapt into the air, stepping on the solidified mud ice in mid-air. They dodged the ferocious swipe of the Corpse Lion Crocodile Monster's tail. 。At the same time, the Sunblaze Sword and Earthsplitter Blade curved in an arc, directly slashing towards the Corpse-Lion Crocodile Demon's two front paws. 。The power of the Blazing Sun Sword and Earth-Splitting Blade was unlike that of ordinary weapons. With a screech, they slashed out two deep wounds visible to the bone, and were about to continue their attack. 。The corpse-eating lion crocodile demon shook its two claws, and Xiaohei Sword and the three-pointed double-edged knife shot back at Lu Xia Tian like lightning. 。

This beast's strength is truly outrageous. Lu Xiaotien was astonished. He had refined the Little Black Sword for several months. Ordinary cultivators couldn't use it before re-refining it. The Corpse Lion Crocodile Demon naturally didn't understand the art of refining, so it was purely relying on brute force.

Of course, it would be unrealistic to control the two artifacts before erasing their divine senses with Yuan Hao. 。The small black sword and the three-pointed, double-edged knife merely curved in the air before stabbing once more towards the back of the rotting corpse lion crocodile demon. 。The Corpse-Lion Crocodile Demon wanted to grab the Splitting Earth Dagger and the Sun-Blazing Sword again just like before. However, as soon as it got its claws on the two artifacts, its claws were almost chopped off halfway. It hurriedly threw the two scorching hot artifacts away. 。After taking a small loss, the corpse lion crocodile demon Zhang Kou spat out two green balls of corpse fire, like bone-attached talismans, chasing after Lu Xiaotiān and Yuan Hao. 。ous, we might not be able to defeat them even if we all charge in. The Puppet Golden Pearl is important, we can't lose it over something small. 。The azure Sky Tiger puppet roared angrily in mid-air....
