Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#675 - Chapter 674 Robbery

"Boom!"

The lightning bolt, like a training exercise, arrived very suddenly, but for some reason, it deviated from the tree branch and struck a boulder in front of the guhou leader.

Amidst the crackling sounds, the boulder shattered, and gravel flew everywhere. All the demon beasts, including the guhou leader, appeared somewhat panicked, and they vigorously raised the black branch high.

However, the point where the lightning struck was more than ten zhang away from them, posing no threat.

The demon beasts had just breathed a sigh of relief, but in a short moment, after the lightning shattered the boulder, it bloomed like flowing water, and rolling electric light flowed along the ground towards them.

"Gugu!"

The guhou leader called out in a hurry, forcefully inserted the black branch into the ground, and then leaped up, standing on the top of the branch. The other demon beasts followed suit, quickly erecting their branches and leaping onto them.

At this moment, the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly moved, shifting several zhang towards the place where the demon beasts were standing, but soon stopped moving again.

After jumping onto the wooden branch, the guhou leader's eyes had been fixed on the thunderclouds above its head, its expression extremely nervous. When it saw them moving, its whole body trembled, and layers of cold sweat seeped from its forehead, soaking the fur on its face. When the thunderclouds stopped and there were no other movements, a look of ecstasy could not be restrained from its eyes.

A moment later, the lightning on the ground receded, disappearing into the chaotic rocks dozens of zhang away.

"Gugu, gu!"

The guhou leader jumped off the wooden branch, called out a few times in a slightly brisk manner, and scattered its steps, quickly darting forward.

The other four demon beasts also let out excited cries, closely chasing after it.

Zhang Yuanjing did not understand the situation in the valley, especially how to avoid the thunderclouds in the sky, and he did not have any lightning-avoiding magical treasures in his hand, so he did not dare to approach. He only placed a wisp of divine sense behind the last wolf demon.

Every few miles that the demon beasts advanced, lightning would fall from the sky. If it wasn't falling on their heads, they would erect their branches and hide on them, using this to avoid the power of heavenly punishment. If it fell on their heads and they didn't have time to dodge, they would raise the branches high, and the falling lightning power would deviate several zhang away from the branches.

Zhang Yuanjing was amazed by what he saw, wondering what kind of lightning-avoiding wood this was, with such a powerful effect, but he was limited by his knowledge and could not identify it.

Before long, the five demon beasts ran nearly fifty miles and completely disappeared from his divine sense. After another half-quarter of an hour, Zhang San's spiritual sense could no longer sense their aura.

This section of the Wind Thunder Gorge that entered the mountain range was thousands of miles long, and the demon beasts had obviously gone to the more central area of the valley.

Zhang Yuanjing observed the terrain at the entrance of the valley, seeing that the middle was covered with chaotic rocks, undulating and uneven, with many hidden holes below, so he quietly moved over, found a hidden crack in the rock, hid himself in it, and used a simple formation to conceal his aura. Of course, this could not completely hide him from the divine sense of a Jindan realm demon beast, but at least it would have to be within a few miles before he would be detected.

Two hours later, the sound of footsteps came from the entrance of the valley. The guhou leader was pitch black, its fur scorched, holding half a black branch in its hand, and walking somewhat staggeringly towards the outside of the valley. Behind it, only one guhou in the middle stage of the Jindan realm, supporting two charred broken branches, was struggling to move forward.

At this moment, the thunderclouds in the sky moved, and a dazzling lightning bolt struck down, heading straight for the head of the guhou in the middle stage of the Jindan realm. This guhou used half a branch to support the ground with one hand, and raised a section of branch upwards with the other. The lightning fell, deviated several zhang, and shattered on a pile of rocks behind it, electric tongues flying everywhere, sweeping past the half branch that supported the ground.

The branch trembled slightly, and the section in contact with the ground occasionally ignited sparks, turning into black ash. The branch became shorter and shorter, and the guhou got closer and closer to the ground. It panicked and let out a begging cry to the guhou leader in front.

The guhou leader just turned its head and glanced at it, then quickened its pace and quickly fled.

"Boom!"

Another lightning bolt landed beside the guhou in the middle stage of the Jindan realm. This time, the branch, which was only a foot long, could no longer block the invasion of the lightning power, and this beast was instantly blasted into pieces by the terrifying power.

The guhou leader had already walked out of the valley, away from the area ravaged by heavenly thunder. It looked back at the valley, was silent for a moment, and then suddenly howled to the sky, with both joy and sadness. Five Jindan realm demon beasts entered, and only it survived. Although it had gained a lot, it could not help but feel沮丧.

However, this emotion only lasted for a few breaths. The howling stopped, and it returned to normal, turned its head, and walked quickly towards the place where the demons were resting.

Walking six or seven miles with both hands and feet in the rugged rocks, its small and pointed nostrils suddenly twitched, and it snorted heavily. It immediately stopped, looking around with some doubt.

Here, in the desolate Wind Thunder Gorge, it actually smelled the aura of a human cultivator, which made it a little unbelievable. It had not found it when it came before, could it be that it had just arrived, intending to ambush it?

Not to mention that the demon race was currently launching a large-scale siege of the human race's immortal city, even in ordinary times, few cultivators would come to this place.

It deeply sniffed the aura in the air and quickly locked its source - it was the crack in the rock where Zhang Yuanjing was hiding.

It recalled that when it had passed by this place before, there was nothing unusual there, and it could not help but sneer. It did not summon the demons who were thirty miles away, but pretended not to notice and slowly walked towards that place.

It was already at the Great Perfection of the Jindan realm. If it was a Yuanying level cultivator, there was no need to hide, and it would be difficult for it to find its trace. Therefore, the human cultivator hiding in that crack in the rock was at most at the Great Perfection of the Jindan realm. Since it was already prepared, even if it was not an opponent, it would be enough to protect itself.

Zhang Yuanjing couldn't wait for this demon to be careless. If he could kill this beast without the knowledge of other demon beasts, that would be the best. Because, if he was discovered by other demon beasts, his whereabouts would be reported to the transformed demon, and then it would not be so easy to fish in troubled waters.

Walking within a mile, the guhou leader suddenly accelerated, the staggering steps completely disappeared, almost like a phantom, instantly approaching the place where Zhang Yuanjing was hiding.

"Bang!"

The guhou leader punched out, sending out a powerful energy, breaking open the crack in the rock from afar, but did not continue to attack, but quickly retreated, standing more than fifty zhang away, posing in a defensive posture, ready to run away at any time.

However, to its great surprise, the cultivator hiding in the crack in the rock was sitting steadily on a flat stone, his eyes closed, his aura flowing, actually performing his cultivation technique.

The guhou leader had many doubts in its heart and did not dare to approach rashly. It picked up a foot-long stone from the ground and smashed it at the cultivator. The guhou was not known for its strength, but only dozens of zhang away, this stone came with a force of a thousand jun.

The cultivator did not dodge, did not defend, and was hit by the stone, falling down in response.

The guhou put its divine sense on it, and saw that there were no scars on the cultivator's body, and his aura was the same as before, only lying on the ground.

It threw a few more stones, and when they hit the cultivator's body, they were all bounced away by invisible energy. The cultivator's aura was constantly falling back, as if he was stopping his cultivation technique.

The guhou leader shouted loudly, stepped forward, and fired several energies in succession, all of which were blocked by the cultivator's protective power. However, through testing, it had determined the cultivator's strength, and his cultivation was not as good as its own, so it strode closer and punched the cultivator's head hard.

The cultivator seemed unaware and remained motionless. However, when it approached a few zhang away, a black umbrella suddenly rose from behind the cultivator, releasing a faint light that captured its head, causing it to fall completely into depravity and unable to move.

This cultivator was naturally Zhang Yuanjing who was hiding here. He took out the mysterious bone blade and slashed it at the guhou's neck, cutting off its head with just one stroke.

He took out the guhou's demon core, took off its storage pouch, burned all traces with a fire, and fled straight to the mountains on the north side of the canyon.
