"Senior, you are... Ah!"
Without hesitation, he turned around and counterpunched!
Lei Chuyu's body was like a cannonball, flying a dozen zhang away. His back slamd hard onto the stone wall, and he couldn't hold back the mouthful of blood he coughed up.
With eyes wide open in fury, the thunder power rampaged through his body, its lines spread across his face. He ford a spell with his reverse hand, and a flash of thunder transford into a green snake that lunged forward, aiming at the enormous form of the Hou Clan Leader with one pointed finger.
"Damn it, this cursed beast!"
He cursed aloud.
His voice was sowhat hoarse; he had known from the start that this wretched creature wouldn't be easy to deal with, which is why he politely addressed him as senior. But it turned out to be a sneak attack; had he known, he would have preferred a frontal battle.
His lower back had already lost sensation, and the punch he threw earlier made his knuckles red and swollen. The hard Spirit Communication Stone bore a noticeable indentation, indicating that Lei Chuyu's physical tempering was quite accomplished, not just his proficiency in Daoist Skills.
However.
"The bones shouldn't be broken, but it won't heal in ten days or half a month..."
Sweat beads dripped from his forehead.
The other disciples from Divine Thunder Valley had already taken up their magic treasures to engage with the Hou Clan Leader, but Lei Chuyu was still standing in the original position, maintaining the posture from his Daoist Skill display. Although he showed no outward signs, he heard the sound of bones and ligants tearing from his fist.
"Use the Immortal Binding Rope to restrict his range of movent! Lao Shi, co back here, don't engage him directly!"
The largest and most robust figure among the five imdiately stopped, his eyes full of confusion.
"This is a pile of stone, it's a dead thing!"
"It must've been possessed by a residual soul to have turned into this form, related to the illusions we saw earlier. Don't trade life for injury, delay a bit, and create an opportunity for the others to use the Immortal Binding Rope."
"The Thunder Array can't be deployed here, let take the attack; avoid these eerie black waters. After using the Immortal Binding Rope, gather the spiritual energy and deliver it to ."
"Let break his turtle shell first!"
He quickly issued orders.
Though all five were injured, they cooperated well, unlike Jiang Feng's group of four; having soone at the Nascent Soul Stage sit in made a significant difference, especially since the disciples from Divine Thunder Valley possessed the power to fight head-on.
Despite the discomfort within his body, he forced himself to act. Rocks crumbled, sharp cries from the monkeys echoed around them. Of course, these weren't actual Yuan Family mbers, but their remnants left within the Spirit Communication Stone, yelling madly despite having died many years ago.
Ignoring the noisy surroundings, he focused on the battle. In such a narrow space, the Thunder Technique could gain considerable advantage. The purple thunder crisscrossed, and with the combined power of five individuals, they fought the Hou Clan Leader with equal strength, which surprised those hidden in the shadows.
Under the protection of the silver crown, they could perfectly conceal their presence. Even though the Hou Clan Leader was already wounded, Lei Chuyu and others' performance was still astonishing.
"Tide Roar, Electric Strike!"
He retreated a few steps.
His expression was sowhat unpleasant. It was then that Lei Chuyu noticed one of the Water Monkey's arms was already broken, the fracture relatively fresh, suggesting the battle hadn't lasted long. Yet this Water Monkey's strength surpassed their expectations.
Vines began to spread in all directions across the passage, twisted branches seemingly imbued with life, suddenly whipping from behind. The passage was gradually filled; branches swayed, trees flourished, even the eerie black water within beca clear and bright at this mont.
It was quite a vibrant scene of rebirth and revival.
The disciples from Divine Thunder Valley found themselves sowhat entranced; they seed to witness the forr prosperity of the Old Dongyue market, saw foreign rchants coming and going, and observing citizens from Dongyue worshipping here.
The passage lost its current gloom; instead, precious and rare minerals covered the entire route, reflecting a natural brightness like daylight underground. The stone steps on both sides of the passage were crowded with rchants.
So rode rare Spiritual Beasts flaunting them, while others sold Spirit Stones and Immortal Herbs. There were also nurous sharp-featured, red-cheeked individuals patrolling with righteous vigor among the Yuan Family's descendants.
Even the Stone Monkey standing before them, fighting, seed less sinister and abominable; instead, it looked like a solemn middle-aged man, deep lines indicating he was dispatching family disciples to welco foreign guests.
Boom——
Water and wind billowed, fierce gusts with spray slamd into them, rising in a wondrous manner after breaking through, spreading out like a dense hail of bullets, sharp blades, or heavy hamrs.
Countless transformations vividly perford in the Hou Clan Leader's hands, even the few observing from the corner held their breath with grave expressions. Often, people ntion the term realization, especially when facing much more powerful cultivators, it is possible to improve one's realm through observation.
"This, this..."
Dazzled, the maid nad Xiao Yu reached out to grab one of the floating colorful flags in the air, which bore the She Family emblem, but as she reached out, a small hand imdiately grasped her own.
"Wake up, don't get caught in it!"
The lowered voice infused with spiritual energy shook Xiao Yu awake from her dream.
Cold sweat broke out, and only then did she realize she nearly stepped out of the range where the silver crown concealed them, having the lowest cultivation. Although she was close to reaching Core Formation after consuming the Blood Ganoderma, she still needed ti to break through her realm.
