Chapter 573: A Strange Affair

ore, that treasure trove seemed to have a certain resistance to magic weapons used by cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage. After Qian Dali used the Blood-Staining Gourd, he seemed to hav...While it is extremely difficult to condense the nine-colored golden elixir, his body has been tempered by the tribulation thunder, making him more thorough than ordinary cultivators. Moreover, the vast spiritual power generated by the five differently attributed condensing elixirs, after condensing into the nine-colored golden elixir, although his cultivation talent remains average, the foundation of his golden elixir is more solid than that of ordinary golden elixir cultivators. 。This wasn't noticeable when he was just forming his golden elixir, but after decades of cultivation, Lu Xia Tian felt that although his amount of spiritual power was still inferior to a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, the purity of his spiritual power was almost on par. 。As for cultivation aptitude, one can use elixirs to save time in training. Moreover, he had several Nascent Souls, which could simultaneously nourish the internal dantian artifacts within his body. The consumed essence could also be replenished with pills. Unknowingly, Lu Xiaoteng discovered that his horizons were no longer focused on cultivators of the same rank, but rather on those in the mid-Golden Core stage. As for the strong cultivators in the late Golden Core stage, Lu Xiaoteng was not yet so ambitious. The absolute gap in cultivation realm is not something that can be easily made up for. 。Lu Xiaoteng considered himself to be among the fastest in his cohort of cultivators who had recently advanced to the Golden Core Realm, but he hadn't expected Di Kun's progress to surpass his own. 。After successfully crossing the tribulation and becoming a seventh-rank demon beast, Di Kun's attack methods were also quite limited. Perhaps Di Kun had just advanced in rank and needed some time to settle his realm and fully benefit from the sudden improvement. 。His cultivation level hasn't improved much for now. If he wanted to strengthen his power, without Chiyun Sang, obtaining the Nascent Soul of a ninth-order monster would be almost impossible. With his current strength, as long as he encountered a ninth-order monster that wasn't very slow, he estimated that his escape ability would be lacking. His previous encounter with being chased by Tie Shi Sheo proved this point. 。During the battle with the King of Camels, Huo Jiao's bow and arrows were destroyed. In the fight against Xiong Ba, the Bagua Demon-Locking Formation was destroyed in order to restrain Jue Yuan. 。The spirit tool has also been lost. 。Now he only had the Shattered Earth Blade and the yin-yang twin orbs, which were adept at escape. Although facing a Golden Core mid-stage cultivator, he had enough primordial spirit essence on hand to remain calm for a time, but the primordial spirit essence of demonic beasts was ultimately just a consumable, especially in his current situation of being alone. Without external assistance, every one used meant losing one. 。The consumption rate is definitely faster than the killing speed of demonic beasts. The cost of exterminating a Tier 8 demonic beast is absolutely more than the consumption of a Tier 8 primordial spirit core. 。It's simply not worth it. 。Just thinking about it really gives me a headache. 。Lu Xia Tian pressed his forehead, ignoring all this. He'll just take it one step at a time, thinking too much wouldn't be of much use anyway. 。The little fire raven's restlessness seemed to have intensified again, perhaps first going to find the location of that spirit fire, to see if it was the legendary Vairocana Spirit Fire. If he could obtain the Vairocana Spirit Fire, then he wouldn't have these troubles anymore. 。The materials of the seventh-order monster are also quite valuable, it's better not to waste them. 。Lu Xiaitian hesitated for a moment, but still collected the materials from the seventh-order demonic lizard. If he had the chance to go out, he could always exchange them for some spirit stones. 。Before entering the Miaomiao Hall, Lu Xia Tian had encountered quite a few spiritual trees and herbs. However, along with Chi Yun Sang and the others, he didn't dare to casually transplant any of them into the barrier's interior. While it wasn't like passing through a garden of flowers without touching a leaf, at least the benefits gained were limited. 。Now alone, free from the worry of direction, but having passed that village with no shop in sight. 。 。Although we have lost the Fire Dragon Bow and the Eight Trigrams Locking Demon Array, at least we still have you. 。Lu Xiaitian patted Di Kun's forehead. Since subduing Di Kun, he had been a powerful help to Lu Xiaitian, accompanying him through several close calls with death. 。At this moment, all alone in this ethereal hall, he too felt like a lone warrior facing overwhelming odds. 。Di Kun let out a low growl and followed closely behind Lu Xia Tian. 。Lu Xia tian thought, then he put away Di Kun. Di Kun was one of his trump cards and couldn't be exposed casually. 。Lu Xia Tian walked alone in this desolate expanse, his deputy soul constantly paying attention to the surroundings. 。After all, since he's disappeared now, Chiyun Sang is very likely to come looking for him. If he's unlucky and runs into Chiyun Sang again, he wants to escape once more. Given Chiyun Sang's strength, if she becomes suspicious of him, there probably won't be another chance later on. 。After walking for several miles, Lu Xia Tian suddenly felt something was wrong. The ground that was originally covered in yellow sand and barren had suddenly become like the world was spinning. 。Without giving Lu Xiaotian much reaction time, a massive amount of yellow sand billowed into the air, turning the surroundings into a world of sand. 。At the same time, the earth began to shake violently. 。In a sharp cry, several demon sand sparrows of levels seven to eight, a kind of demon bird that usually dwells underground but can also fly into the air, were startled by the ground collapse and flew frantically into the sky. 。Lu Xia Tian also had the heart to break through the sky and leave this ghostly place, but just as he waited for those demon sand sparrows to reach the air, the sky suddenly surged with an indescribable fierce energy, like an unstoppable sword energy. That sword energy split into two, then four... 。 。The thick protective sand barrier only lasted for a short while before cracks appeared, and the all-pervading sword qi pierced through the gaps in an instant. 。Screams echoed through the shattered sandstorm. In a short while, pieces of the sandstorm, along with severed remains of the sand sparrows, fell from the sky, mingling with a bloody stench. 。Lu Xia Tian gasped, since landing on the island, it wasn't the first time he had encountered spatial restrictions, but such a sharp restriction was the first time he had encountered it. Such formidable sword energy, let alone these few monsters with relatively ordinary strength, even him, or even those in the middle and late stages of Jindan, would only be able to hold on for a little longer. 。Seeing the scene before him, Lu Xia Tian naturally completely dispelled the idea of breaking through the air and leaving. 。...the ground had already collapsed everywhere, leaving him nowhere to stand. ... 。A sound like a mountain roar, like a tsunami, surged over. Lu Xia Tian turned his head to look, his face full of astonishment. In this desolate land filled with sand dunes, such a deafening roar, resembling the collapse of heaven and earth, was an incredible phenomenon.without the protection of the Fire Jiao scales, he would have sustained injuries by now. Even a sixth-rank peak cultivator wouldn't be unscathed against such terrifying attacks of spear intent. Of co...
