Chapter 233: Inside and Outside the Mountain (1/2)
“I didn’t think there would be so many rare medicinal herbs here. These True Thunderscour Fruits are especially rare. With these herbs, I can improve my strength quickly. It would not be an issue for me to rise up to the Sky Human stage within 10 years. No, in less than 10 years! In just 8 years, I will be able to rise up to the Sky Human stage.” Xu Ziping felt pleased as he observed the medicinal herbs filling the ground.
“That is right. With these True Thunderscour Fruits, my fleshly body can be improved by several notches. With the improved blood energy and the complementary effect of other spirit-type medicines for soul power, I will be able to break through to the Sky Human stage in half a year’s time. When that happens, I will be able to step into Heaven and join the ranks of Sages!” Liu Tian was also feeling joyful.
Forget a Concealed stage cultivator like Liu Tian, even a Sky Human stage cultivator would grow shocked at the sight of so many spirit-type medicines. Those were good items capable of greatly improving cultivation, after all.
Several corpses lay not far away from them. Clearly, those people were killed in the earlier fight for the True Thunderscour Fruits.
“Eh? Why do I sense something amiss?” Liu Tian suddenly said.
“My heart is also palpitating. Could something dangerous be about to appear?” Xu Ziping’s face gradually grew serious.
Next, the two of them spread out their soul power. Liu Tian even brought out a Reconnaissance Talisman to investigate their surroundings.
Even before they could discover anything, Chen Feng’s team of three rapidly rushed towards them.
“It’s you fellows!” Liu Tian’s brows jumped.
“Senior Brother Liu, help!” Chen Feng shouted as he swiftly run behind Liu Tian.
By then, Liu Tian and Xu Ziping had noticed the One-horned Thunderbull that was chasing them. Their faces spontaneously sank while they inwardly swore at Chen Feng’s team.
“It’s a Great Yao!” Liu Tian said solemnly. The One-horned Thunderbull was already upon them. It quickly noticed Liu Tian. Next, it roared before executing a lightning-like charge at Liu Tian.
“Capturing Domain!”
Liu Tian shouted as his entire body released a pulse. Energy streams surged forward as he pushed both hands out, sending two vast, grasping palm silhouettes – formed using his domain – towards the Great Yao.
As for Xu Ziping, he slipped away the moment he saw the One-horned Thunderbull. Whether or not Liu Tian could stop the Great Yao was not a concern for him at all.
Bang!
The One-horned Thunderbull easily smashed apart the palm silhouettes that Liu Tian sent out, eliciting a low grunt from Liu Tian. His whole body instantly bounced up into the sky. Next, he twisted his body while it was in mid-air and he disappeared from sight.
“Guys, don’t go! With the five of us, we can surely finish off this Great Yao!” Chen Feng shouted.
“Deal with your troubles yourselves. Don’t bring it to us.” Liu Tian’s voice rang from afar.
“Didn’t you say we are all companions?” Chen Feng shouted again.
This time, however, Liu Tian did not answer. It would appear he had run far away.
“Those two sure are quick at running.” Chen Feng could not stop himself from blurting out.
“Be careful!”
Tie Changkong sent out over 100 sword beams as he shouted. In an instant, waves of sword nets were formed in the sky. They all charged towards the One-horned Thunderbull without respite.
“Let’s go!”
The three of them did not bother waiting to see the result of the attack. Instead, they quickly ran away again. They knew that an attack of this level was simply incapable of stopping the Great Yao. At most, all it could do was leave some superficial scars on the Great Yao’s body.
As expected, before the three of them could run too far away, the One-horned Thunderbull had already caught up to them. It smashed about while roaring, charging forward at an incredible speed. When there was only a certain distance left between them, a lightning bolt shot out from its horn. It was like a sword made of lightning, shooting towards Chen Feng and the others.
“Hurry, dodge!”
Chen Feng and the others were quick to react and they swiftly dodged the lightning bolt.
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!
The lightning bolt pierced through three big trees in quick succession. In the end, it slammed into the surface of the mountain, leaving a circular and bottomless hole.
“Sii! If I got hit, I would have been blasted apart,” Chen Feng exclaimed.
“Careful, it’s coming again!”
Kacha! Kacha! Kacha!
Lightning bolts kept shooting out from the One-horned Thunderbull’s horn. All in their path would be shattered like withered twigs. Even the tough rocks were incapable of stopping them. Once, Chen Feng had been slightly too slow in dodging and the corner of his robes was obliterated by the lightning bolt.
“How is this Great Yao so powerful? The cultivators besieging this One-horned Thunderbull earlier sure got guts!” Chen Feng could not help but give praise to them.
“We can’t escape. Why don’t we stop and fight this fellow for a bit?” Tie Changkong shouted.
“I have no objections.” Chen Feng also felt that continuing their current actions was not the right way forward.
“If so, let’s fight this Great Yao!” Shangguan Yun was more direct. She waved her hand and ribbons covered the sky before flying towards the charging Great Yao, wrapping it up.
“Kill!”
Chen Feng and Tie Changkong utilized their magic treasures as well to charge forward.
“Roar!”
Instantly, the three of them surrounded the Great Yao and engaged in a battle with it. It was a very intense battle.
