Otherworldly-Cultivator

When they arrived at the mist forest, Chen Li took out the blood eater sword and went hunting beasts, especially since he still had an unfinished mission and the time limit was only two days left, so he wanted to finish it quickly.

Even so, Chen Li no longer used his humanoid dragon form to fight them, and he could actually kill them more easily if he used the necklace of destiny as a gun or something similar. However, he wanted to strengthen his bond with the sword and practice his sword techniques at the same time, mainly because he still couldn't use the fifth move of the origin sword technique perfectly, and the blood eater sword also needed blood to become stronger.

On the other hand, Yan Qiu took out her two daggers, and she also went to hunt beasts, but she went to another area to do it, especially since her cultivation was still far below Chen Li, so she wouldn't be able to fight such powerful beasts.

However, both of them did not realize that there were several flying beasts observing them from above the sky, and they were Shou Huang's contract beasts. [So he is that Long Wang, huh? I've been looking for him for quite a while, but I couldn't find him, and he suddenly appeared out of nowhere. As Shou Xiang said before, he is indeed strong, and his fighting skills are also above average; even his mastery of sword techniques is also amazing.]

After all, beast tamers had unique abilities, and they could monitor other cultivators through the eyes of their beasts; even strong cultivators like Xiao Huoli and the others would find it difficult to notice their actions, especially since they didn't need their qi or aura for that, which was thanks to their connection with their beasts.

[Forget it, that guy is none of my business, and my target is Di Jing, so I'll give his location to Shou Xiang and let her handle him.]

.

"Hmm?" Shou Xiang, who was looking for information in the city, was startled by a black crow that suddenly perched on her shoulder. "Have you managed to find Long Wang?"

[I don't know how he did it, but that man suddenly appeared in the forest around this sect, and he is currently hunting beasts with a woman.]

"What are the characteristics of that woman?" The black crow transferred Yan Qiu's image to Shou Xiang directly. "Oh? I didn't expect that she also has a woman in this region, and she is a disciple of the Blazing Moon Sect."

[What are you going to do about them?]

"Hmm?" Shou Xiang thought for a while before telling him. "That girl seems weaker compared to his women in the Blue Moon Sect, so I think I'll capture her first, and I'll use her to lure Long Wang to me."

[Well, you can do anything to them, but I will not interfere in your duties, and I will go see Di Jing now.]

"Di Jing? Who is she?"

[She is the second granddaughter of Di Xiong, the ancestor of the Di Clan in Southern River City, and Wang Yu told me that she has a close relationship with Long Wang, so I will try to get close to her.]

Shou Xiang nodded in understanding, and she rushed towards the Mist Forest after the black crow flew away. "Long Wang, huh? Who exactly are you? I don't want to hurt your woman, and I just want to know your secret, so you should come to me soon."

After searching for it since yesterday, Yang Hao and the others finally managed to find the blackscale serpent. Not only did they manage to find it, but they also found a bunch of adult serpents, and the cultivation of those beasts was several minor stages above theirs.

Moreover, one of those beasts had a massive body, and its cultivation even reached the earth realm.

"Crap!" Yang Hao cursed as he pulled Bei Yudie and Cai Yan behind him, and he took out his weapon to prepare to face those beasts.

Beside him, Xue Xueyan took out a sky blue cloth with spearheads on both ends, and an icy white aura enveloped her body. "Hey Yang Hao, there are simply too many of them for us to fight them all simultaneously."

However, they suddenly felt heat from beside them, and they saw Huo Rui already holding her sword with a red aura covering her body.

"You guys can face those serpents in the soul realm, and I will face the ones in the earth realm." After she said that, Huo Rui flew quickly towards the biggest blackscale serpent, and several swords made of her fire qi shot directly towards it.

Seeing that, the biggest blackscale serpent burrowed into the ground to avoid Huo Rui's attack, and it immediately moved away from its original location, which caused all of her fire qi swords to instantly hit the ground and produce a few huge explosions.

*Boom... Boom...*

However, Huo Rui didn't stop there and pointed her sword downward before thrusting it into the ground, and she muttered something before her fire moved along the underground, chasing her target. Following that, several fire pillars rose from underground, and her fire continued to chase the beast.

Since the temperature inside the ground became hot due to Huo Rui's fire, the earth realm blackscale serpent decided to come to the surface, but her attack suddenly hit it and sent it flying quite a distance.

Taking advantage of that, Huo Rui moved towards the beast again while slashing his sword two times and fired a cross-fire towards it before hitting its body.

"Hiss!" The beast hissed quite loudly as it swung its tail towards Huo Rui, who was already quite close to it, but she used her sword to deflect its attack.

Even though she managed to deflect the beasts' attack, Huo Rui was knocked back several steps, causing her to stagger and almost fall, but she stabilized herself and counterattacked.

Suddenly, the other serpents moved towards Yang Hao and the others, and those beasts attacked them using quite a lot of earth spikes and others.

"Yan'er! Yudie! You two find a place to take cover! Xueyan and I will attack them." Yang Hao shouted as he dashed toward them, and he used his fire techniques to counter their attacks.

Xue Xueyan did not remain silent, and she followed behind Yang Hao while activating her ice element, which made the attacks of the beasts freeze. She then swung her weapon before smashing their frozen attacks into pieces, and she moved towards those serpents to help him.

However, Cai Yan didn't listen to her husband's words and flew into the sky, and she used her air element before shooting several air balls towards the crowd of serpents. Even though her attacks were not as strong as Yang Hao and Xue Xueyan's, they were still effective enough to push the beasts back several steps, and the two people took advantage of the opportunity to attack their enemies.

Meanwhile, Bei Yudie felt hesitant about fighting those serpents, especially since they had the same element, so her attacks would be useless against them. Even so, she didn't want to give up and moved to help them, and she took out a weapon that Chen Li gave her as her body was enveloped in a yellow aura.

Besides, Bei Yudie also utilized her earth element to make several spears from the ground, and she threw them towards those serpents. Unfortunately, her attacks are not that useful, and they can destroy everything easily.

Up in the sky, Xiao Diqiu only watched them fight with the beasts, but she was most amazed by Huo Rui's fighting ability. "Yang Hao and Xue Xueyan are indeed experienced in fighting, but that girl's attacks are much more effective than theirs, and her speed in using her techniques is also incredibly fast; even many of the younger generations in the five divine heavens cannot execute their techniques as fast as her."

Xiao Diqiu suddenly felt two auras moving quickly towards them, so she turned towards them while raising her eyebrows. "Who are those two men? Why do I feel malicious intentions from them? Could it be that these two are targeting them?"

"Heh!" Xiao Diqiu snorted softly and waved her hand, which caused the ground around the area to move into an unusual formation. "My master did ask me to kill anyone who has evil intentions towards them, but they are just weak prey, and it would be unethical for me to kill them, so I will just toy with you guys."

Noticing the changes in the area in front of them, the two men stopped moving and increased their vigilance, and Wu Laochen asked his friend. "Can you feel that?"

"Yes." Ruan Dongcheng replied with a nod. "I don't know who did it or how that person could do it, but the area in front of us is not right, so we have to be more careful."

"Do you think that person is protecting Yang Hao and the three women?" Wu Laochen asked again as he slowly moved forward.

Ruan Dongcheng also did the same thing as him. "That's for sure. Moreover, that person must be very strong, or else he wouldn't be able to manipulate this area instantly."
