Chapter 95: Eastern Wilderland (2) (1/2)

Clank! Clank! Clank!

In one corner of Wilderland, four young cultivators frantically tried to get an upper hand in a battle with a massive White Rhino, an early Qi Transformation beast, after their entrapment failed to injure the beast.

They severely underestimated the thickness of the White Rhino's defense and eventually fell into their current predicament.

The group consisted of three men and one woman.

The strongest among them was the handsome young man whose hairstyle into man-bun. He was seemingly the leader of the four whose cultivation was at the peak of Qi Gathering stage.

They wore blue robes with white belts – a standard uniform for Heaven Sword Sect's outer disciple.

”Senior Brother Zhao, we cannot hold much longer! We need a different plan!”

One of the cultivators, a bulky young man with a spear in his hand, shouted at the handsome man while he—with much difficulty—blocked the charge of the spirit beast.

”No! We need to stick to the plan! The beast has considerably weakened, just continue to attack!”

The skinny young man with slanted eyes quickly rejected his proposal. He apparently was the one in charge of the entrapment array.

”Shut your mouth, You An! If you're not overestimating your ability, Junior Sister Lan won't be hurt!” rebuke the burly cultivator. He occasionally glanced at the young girl who kneeled on the ground whose face grew paler by the time.

”Cough… I… I'm fine Brother Fan. Let's continue,”

The blood on her hand though indicates otherwise.

Zhao Dong hesitated for a moment, thinking when exactly his plan went awry.

This was not the first time they team up together to hunt spirit beasts and his plan was a standard tactic to deal with higher cultivation spirit beast.

They were just unlucky to face a variant spirit beast that was more intelligent than their average prey.

After the array failed to deal a significant blow to it, the spirit beasts immediately retaliated.

Unlike the usual mindless beast, the White Rhino was a little bit smarter. It chose to attack the weakest link of the group, the girl.

Lacking battle experience, the group couldn't cope with the change in the situation and suddenly the young girl was hit by the blunt force of the White Rhino.

”We need to retreat! This beast is very cunning!”

Zhao Dong was still indecisive.

Even though they were a disciple of Big Sect, as an outer disciple, they didn't get many resources.

Only by completing a mission that they could get contribution points to exchange for cultivation resources.

White Rhino's beast core and hide were very valuable.

If they could get it, they would have enough resources for a week without the need to go hunting every day.

Zhao Dong was also urgently needed contribution points to exchange for the Qi Transformation pill to help him enter the rank of Qi Transformation cultivator.

If they could finish this White Rhino, he could have enough contribution points for exchange.

However, he also realized that their current situation wasn't good.

'Do we need to give up on this one?'

Zhao Dong felt conflicted.

”No! not yet! Senior Brother Zhao, aim at its neck's join! That spot was its weakness!”

This time the one who refuted the burly man wasn't the skinny guy, You An, but the injured girl, Lan Yu.

”Junior Sister, you…” Gao Fan sighed.

”Are you sure?” asked Zhao Dong, staring at Lan Yu's eyes.

”Yes,” replied Lan You weakly but confident.

Although her cultivation was weak, she had spent a long time reading about spirit beast and their weakness.

After calmly analyzed their opponent, she finally found its weak point.

”Okay! Gao Fan, you distract the White Rhino and I'll deliver the killing strike!”

”Okay!”

Gao Fan assaulted the White Rhino with a bombardment of spear thrusts. His spear's blade came from all directions annoyed the massive beast.

The White Rhino felt that something bad was going to happen but under the relentless attack from Gao Fan, it didn't have time to spare its thought.

The beast galloped at Gao Fan in fury.

Zhao Dong patiently waited for the perfect moment to strike while charging his remaining spirit Qi so that when he slashed his sword it would be the end of the beast!

'This is it!'

The beast's attention had been occupied to deal with Gao Fan, the opportunity had come!

Zhao Dong leaped at the White Rhino from the side; his sword ready to fell upon the beast's neck.

”Mountain Breaking Slash! Die, you beast!”

Zhao Dong used all his strength to sever the beast's head from its body.

Although the part was relatively softer than any other part, Zhao Dong still felt like he was cutting steel.
