Actually.

Xiao Ming only recognized the silhouette as that of a cat-like monster, but he didn't know that it was called the Shadow Cat.

He knew the name because he activated the viewing function.

The information about the silhouette is as follows:

Name: Shadow Cat

Fate: None

Realm: Mid Divine Sea Realm

Divine Ability: Shadow Concealment, Sudden Attack

Explanation 1: A shadow-type monster raised by a powerful figure, guarding the seal formation of Lingyun Cave to prevent outsiders from entering.

Explanation 2: The Shadow Cat loves to live in the shadows. Its claws are extremely sharp and can defeat enemies in one strike. However, its physical body is weak and cannot withstand powerful attacks.

"So the Shadow Cat's realm has reached the Mid Divine Sea Realm. No wonder it was able to instantly kill Jie Kong and Jie Chen. Wait a minute!"

"The Shadow Cat is guarding the seal formation of Lingyun Cave?"

After seeing the explanation of the Shadow Cat, Xiao Ming's heart tightened.

Lingyun Cave has a seal formation?

How did he not notice?

If the so-called seal formation is really inside Lingyun Cave, in the deepest part, the fourth level of space...

"If there really is a seal formation inside, then the question is, who is sealed?"

Xiao Ming's mind quickly turned, thinking of countermeasures.

If a righteous person is sealed, there is no need to worry too much. But if an evil person is sealed, then there will be trouble!

If it is really an evil person who is sealed, then their journey so far has been about breaking the seal and giving that evil person the opportunity to see the light of day again.

Xiao Ming thought of the situation on the first level.

In the cave on the first level, besides the group of Ash Flame Lizards, there were also scattered corpses of guardian puppets.

Those guardian puppets probably had the same task as the Shadow Cat, which was to prevent outsiders from entering. However, for some reason, all the guardian puppets were destroyed.

It is estimated that because they have been active for too long, the guardian puppets ran out of power sources, which caused the problem.

Thinking of the evil spirits on the second level, Xiao Ming's face became serious.

This Lingyun Cave is not an ordinary secret realm.

It seems that the next action must be extremely careful.

While Xiao Ming was deep in thought.

Not far away, Han Qingfeng and Elder Weng had already started a fierce battle with the Shadow Cat. The Shadow Cat took the initiative to attack, turning into silhouettes and attacking back and forth.

However, every attack was blocked by Han Qingfeng and Elder Weng.

Han Qingfeng possessed the energy-based Qingyu Xuanguang Shield, and Elder Weng could mobilize the skull. Although the Shadow Cat was elusive, it couldn't do anything to these two.

As the battle continued, the Shadow Cat became increasingly anxious.

But Elder Weng and Han Qingfeng's faces showed delight.

Because they were pleasantly surprised to find that although the Shadow Cat was extremely fast, its attack power was limited, and its physical body was extremely weak, easily broken!

"You little thing, die for me!"

Elder Weng suddenly shouted, and with his voice, his skull suddenly spewed out a lot of thick black mist. The mist rolled and instantly engulfed the Shadow Cat.

The Shadow Cat tried to escape but was entangled by the skull and trapped in the thick fog, unable to break free.

Seeing this, Han Qingfeng and Elder Weng both breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Ming, who was far away, also sighed.

This Shadow Cat is undoubtedly doomed.

Because the Shadow Cat's greatest strength is its speed, being elusive. Even if it can't kill with one strike, it can escape like lightning.

But now the Shadow Cat is trapped, unable to fully utilize its greatest speed advantage, and being killed is only a matter of time.

As expected.

After just seven or eight breaths, there was movement in the dense fog.

"Meow!!"

The Shadow Cat let out an extremely tragic scream.

And then.

The fog dispersed, revealing a floating skeleton head biting the body of the Shadow Cat.

The Shadow Cat's size is not large, like a just-grown young dog, but its claws are extremely sharp, with each nail resembling a curved dagger gleaming with cold light.

In addition, its whole body is of a dark color, and even in death, its fur emits a dark light.

"It turns out to be a stray cat!"

Old Weng spat in annoyance after seeing the body of the Shadow Cat.

It was this Shadow Cat that startled him just now and even killed Jie Kong and Jie Chen. But fortunately, he and Han Qingfeng managed to kill this Shadow Cat together.

"Han, this Shadow Cat is at the mid-Divine Sea stage, and its fur and claws are valuable items. How about we split them?" Old Weng suggested.

"Good!"

"And let's also split what Jie Kong and Jie Chen had on them!"

Both of them are lone cultivators without the support of a sect's cultivation resources, so they have the attitude of collecting anything valuable.

Therefore, they didn't even give up on the fur and claws of the Shadow Cat.

After dividing all kinds of resources, Old Weng sighed and said, "I didn't expect Lingyun Cave to be so dangerous. We've only entered the third level, and we've already lost several companions."

"Madam Bai, Senior Brothers Jie Kong and Jie Chen, and Xiao Ming are all dead."

"Han, what are your thoughts for the next step? Do you want to continue exploring?"

As he said this, Old Weng's gaze underwent some obvious changes.

His aura subtly increased, and he prepared himself for battle.

"Exploration must continue, but we still need to be careful. If there are other cat-like monsters on this third level, we could suffer a great loss," Han Qingfeng said meaningfully as he held the Qingyun Sword in his hand.

Upon hearing this, Old Weng narrowed his eyes and his momentum eased a bit.

Han Qingfeng was right.

Now is not the time for internal strife. After all, Lingyun Cave is so dangerous that having an extra helper means an extra chance of survival.

Thinking of this, Old Weng temporarily suppressed his thoughts of killing Han Qingfeng.

After searching for a while, the two found an entrance on a certain stone wall. Just as they were about to enter, suddenly, there was a commotion not far away.

"Who!?"

Old Weng and Han Qingfeng turned their heads at the same time, gripping their weapons tightly and throwing their torches over.

In the light of the fire, Xiao Ming's figure was revealed.

"Xiao Ming? You're not dead?!" Old Weng was greatly surprised.

"It seems that Brother Xiao is truly extraordinary. Being secretly attacked by a cat-like monster and still looking lively," Han Qingfeng narrowed his eyes and said unexpectedly.

"Not at all, I just passed out earlier," Xiao Ming said as he walked over, waving his hand. "If it weren't for a close-fitting defensive armor I had, I would have already become a corpse lying on the ground, just like Jie Kong and Jie Chen."

The so-called close-fitting armor was naturally just something Xiao Ming made up as an excuse to get by.

As for whether Old Weng and Han Qingfeng believed it...

It didn't matter if they believed it or not!

"In that case, Xiao, you really have good luck!" Old Weng snorted, seemingly not believing Xiao Ming's words.

Xiao Ming couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

Instead, he looked towards the entrance to the fourth level.

Through the entrance, he could see that the fourth level was a space filled with light, where golden light shone and spiritual energy was astonishing.

The dense spiritual energy was like seawater, even spewing out through the entrance!
