The first volume debuts Chapter 19 Hunting Spiritual Beasts!
Hearing this person's words, Li Xuanfeng's eyes showed deep loneliness. If he could choose, he would rather never enter the cultivation world. He preferred the life with his parents and friends before. He lived a carefree life in Taoyuan Village without being criticized by others. Everyone was so simple and kind.
"Unfortunately, it is impossible to go back to my previous life. All this is due to the Corpse Demon Cult!" Suddenly his thoughts turned, and an lingering hatred emerged in Li Xuanfeng's eyes. That was the infinite motivation for his practice.
Ignoring the discussions and silence of the people in the trading pavilion, Li Xuanfeng left the trading pavilion directly, channeled his spiritual power into his feet, performed the Wandering Cloud Step, and ran to the edge of the central platform at his fastest speed. Then, through the connecting rainbow bridge, Li Xuanfeng went to the platform of the first peak.
Although the platform of the first peak is not as grand as the central platform, it is equally spectacular. In the half area close to the central platform, there are a large number of attics rising from the ground, while the other half is empty, used for disciples to practice and practice combination formations. The place where Li Xuanfeng is going is the outermost area of the empty area.
The three peaks outside the Xuanling Sect all have this structure. One side close to the central platform is a loft building, and the other side is an open space used for training and exercises.
These three peaks are huge, reaching a height of ten thousand feet. The platform on the top of the giant peak is two thousand feet in diameter, and the central platform is as large as six thousand feet. The three giant peaks surround the central platform, and together with the length of the connecting rainbow bridge, the Xuanling Sect occupies an area of more than ten thousand feet in radius.
Because there are cultivation caves and trial levels under the giant peak, it is impossible to climb down the mountain directly, so a teleportation formation was set up to connect to Xuanling City in front of Xuanling Sect. Xuanling City also belongs to Xuanling Sect and is used for communication with the outside world and for teleporting people from the sect back and forth.
Li Xuanfeng, whose cultivation had reached the middle stage of Rong Ling, had increased his speed several times compared to before cultivation. However, it still took him half an hour to rush from the trading pavilion to the edge of the platform of the first peak, a distance of several thousand feet, even at full speed.
Standing on the edge of the platform of the first peak, looking down, there is an endless forest. On the first level, there is a stone tablet with the words "Dongfu Layer" written on it. This is the cave where the sect disciples go into seclusion. Li Xuanfeng jumped directly from the edge of the platform and rushed down at full speed. After descending about a thousand feet, he saw the second stone tablet with the words "First Trial Layer" written on it.
In front of this stone tablet, there were a dozen disciples sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed to adjust their spiritual power. Li Xuanfeng also saw that several disciples had a lot of blood on their bodies. It was obvious that they were injured in the trial level and returned to the cave level to heal their injuries. Because there were no spiritual beasts here, they could calmly heal their injuries.
Passing through this stone tablet, he entered the trial level. Li Xuanfeng couldn't help feeling a little excited and a little nervous. He sat cross-legged and adjusted the spiritual power consumed by the journey, restoring himself to his peak.
Some disciples who had already recovered from their injuries noticed Li Xuanfeng who had just arrived, and surprise appeared in their eyes. They didn't expect that he had only been practicing for about two months, but he had the courage to break into the trial level.
The journey did not consume too much spiritual energy. After adjusting for about ten breaths, Li Xuanfeng opened his eyes. With spiritual energy flashing in his eyes, he walked across the stone tablet without hesitation and entered the trial layer.
As soon as he entered the trial level, although the mountain forest was not much different from the cave level, Li Xuanfeng immediately felt a different atmosphere from the cave level and the platform, with a subtle smell of blood and a hint of violence.
Li Xuanfeng no longer rushed forward without scruples, but restrained his own aura and walked down carefully. There were a large number of spiritual beasts in the trial layer here. If he rushed forward without scruples and attracted powerful spiritual beasts, he would be asking for trouble.
Not far down, Li Xuanfeng encountered the first spiritual beast. It was a wild beast with sharp horns on its head, which looked like a wolf but was not a wolf. It also had two fangs growing out of its mouth, flashing a sharp luster.
Suddenly, the beast's nose twitched as if it smelled something, and it turned its head abruptly to face Li Xuanfeng!
Li Xuanfeng didn't expect to be discovered so quickly. It was not because he did not hide his breath, but because the beast's sense of smell was too sensitive, and Li Xuanfeng, who was unable to completely restrain his breath, was easily exposed.
Li Xuanfeng knew that he could no longer hide, so he took out the Purple Destroying Stick and prepared to attack at any time. At the same time, he searched for information in the spiritual beast books that he had memorized in his mind, looking for the beast's weaknesses.
"Spirit-horned wolves have fast attack speeds and a keen sense of smell. Their horns and fangs are very sharp. The cultivation level of ordinary spirit-horned wolves is between the early and late stages of the Fusion Spirit Realm. The wolf king can reach the Spirit Foundation Realm and is more afraid of fire."
Soon, Li Xuanfeng learned the information by comparing the characteristics of the beast. Li Xuanfeng had seen that the wolf's cultivation was in the middle stage of Rong Ling, which was a good opportunity for him to test his own strength.
The spirit-horned wolf stared at Li Xuanfeng for a few breaths, and sensing that Li Xuanfeng was carrying the same aura as itself, it suddenly rushed towards Li Xuanfeng.
Although he was recalling the information in his mind, Li Xuanfeng's eyes never left the spirit-horned wolf. When he saw it running towards him, he immediately knew to start attacking.
Li Xuanfeng also rushed towards the spirit horn wolf, and increased his speed, otherwise the spirit horn wolf would have the advantage in speed. In an instant, the man and the wolf touched each other, and Li Xuanfeng used the purple extermination stick to block the fangs of the spirit horn wolf. He grabbed the purple extermination stick with both hands to resist, and the spirit horn wolf bit the purple extermination stick directly.
Li Xuanfeng held the Purple Destroyer Stick with both hands and fought with the wolf for a while, but found that he could not get the Purple Destroyer Stick out of the wolf's mouth. Then he loosened his left hand, grabbed one end of the Purple Destroyer Stick with his right hand, swung it into the air, and then threw it hard to the ground. The Spirit Horned Wolf was swung into the air by Li Xuanfeng and was smashed to the ground. In pain, it loosened its mouth that was biting the Purple Destroyer Stick.
Li Xuanfeng took back the Purple Destroying Stick and was about to take advantage of the situation to attack the Spirit-Horned Wolf, but the Spirit-Horned Wolf nimbly rolled to the side and dodged, even running away for a distance.
"Oh!" The spirit-horned wolf howled towards the sky.
"Not good." Li Xuanfeng knew that spirit-horned wolves rarely acted alone. It was calling its companions. He knew that he could not delay any longer, otherwise it would be troublesome if he attracted a few more spirit-horned wolves.
After the spirit-horned wolf howled, it rushed towards Li Xuanfeng, with its sharp claws exposed on the soles of its four feet. It seemed that it was worried that Li Xuanfeng would escape, so it chose to attack and hold him back.
Li Xuanfeng leaned back quickly, and the spirit-horned wolf missed and was about to fly over him. Li Xuanfeng, holding the Purple Destroying Stick, swung it hard and hit the spirit-horned wolf in the abdomen. The spirit-horned wolf was knocked to the side. Li Xuanfeng immediately stood up and seized the opportunity to quickly attack the spirit-horned wolf.
The spirit-horned wolf that had just fallen to the ground had not yet gotten up when Li Xuanfeng hit the wolf's head hard with the Purple Destroying Stick. This was Li Xuanfeng's attempt to kill the spirit-horned wolf as quickly as possible. After several heavy blows, the spirit-horned wolf was already dying.
Just as Li Xuanfeng relaxed and prepared to leave, the spirit-horned wolf suddenly used up its last bit of strength to bite Li Xuanfeng's arm. Li Xuanfeng used his spiritual power to condense spiritual fire on his arm in pain, burning the spirit-horned wolf. The spirit-horned wolf, which was already dying, was soon burned to death. Li Xuanfeng pulled his arm out of the wolf's mouth, and a lot of blood had already flowed from his arm.
Ignoring the blood on his arm, Li Xuanfeng didn't dare to stay any longer. He held the spirit-horned wolf against his waist with his right hand and ran towards the cave level above.
Just as Li Xuanfeng started running, three spirit-horned wolves rushed out from the jungle next to them!
Li Xuanfeng immediately felt the pursuit from behind, and ran madly with all his strength using the Youyun Step, but he still felt the breath of three spirit-horned wolves slowly approaching from behind.
Fortunately, this place was not far from the cave level, and Li Xuanfeng's speed was almost the same as that of the spirit-horned wolves. After running madly for more than ten breaths, he finally passed through the formation and entered the cave level. The three spirit-horned wolves instantly crashed into the formation, causing it to vibrate slightly.
Li Xuanfeng saw three spirit-horned wolves fall in front of the formation in pain. They could no longer see Li Xuanfeng behind the formation. They howled at the formation for a while, and then hid in the jungle beside the formation, as if they were ready to wait for their chance. However, what they didn't know was that Li Xuanfeng could from behind the formation.
Li Xuanfeng put down the corpse of the spirit-horned wolf, sat cross-legged and took a Huiyuan Pill to heal his wound. The medicinal power instantly flowed through the blood to the wound on his arm, and the wound began to heal rapidly. Half an incense stick later, Li Xuanfeng's arm was back to normal, and only the dried blood on his arm still proved that he had been injured.
He took out a knife from the storage bag, cut open the neck of the spirit-horned wolf, and took out a spirit core from its head. Then he picked up the body of the spirit-horned wolf, found a mountain spring to wash it, and started to roast it with the spirit fire.
