Thunderous Tactics

"He actually dared to leave Ao Longyu's range of perception. He's truly courageous."

Xin Jiao sat on a tree with a snake coiled around it.

It was through this snake that he saw Jiang Lan's figure.

A snake with two pupils.

It was a natural magical power, the Clairvoyance.

This was his spirit beast. Very few people knew of its existence.

"According to the plan, we have to find a way to lure Ao Longyu into a trap and hunt her down.

She escaped three years ago. Today, I want to see how she will escape this killing."

Xin Jiao touched the snake with two pupils.

At this moment, a lightning mark appeared on his face.

However, this mark flashed past before disappearing.

"Let's use this disciple from the Ninth Summit by taking him down, then lure Ao Longyu over.

If someone reported it, she would definitely make a move.

Haha.

Let's have some fun with this little fellow. "

Xin Jiao smiled and headed towards Jiang Lan.

His speed was extremely fast.

It was not the speed of an ordinary cultivator who had just perfected the Foundation Establishment.

…

Jiang Lan walked along the mountain path. He could feel that someone was approaching him very quickly.

"It feels like someone who has perfected the Foundation Establishment realm, but its speed has surpassed that realm.

There is a possibility that he has learned a cultivation technique similar to the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel like me. Or he has concealed his cultivation. "

Jiang Lan thought for a moment before realizing that hiding their cultivation level would meant that they're doing the same as him.

Roar!

All of a sudden, the low growls of demonic beasts sounded from the forest.

It was a herd of beasts.

Jiang Lan turned to look in the direction of the growls, while they were also staring at him.

Since the other party was here, there was no need for Jiang Lan to move.

He stood where he was, waiting for them to appear.

Not long after.

A few sparse voices could be heard as some demonic beasts began to appear in front of Jiang Lan.

There were demonic beasts similar to tigers and wild boars.

They were all above the Foundation Establishment stage.

Roar!

Suddenly, the tiger-like demonic beast charged towards Jiang Lan.

Crack!

At this critical moment, Jiang Lan went in the opposite direction of its attack. The tiger-like demon bit down on a huge tree.

Boom!

The tree collapsed.

Roar!

The tiger-like demonic beast stared at Jiang Lan, not attacking again.

"Tsk tsk, the junior brother of the Ninth Summit is indeed extraordinary.

He actually managed to maintain his cool. "

A voice came from behind the herd.

Jiang Lan remembered that the voice belonged to Xin Jiao.

"Senior brother, are you here to borrow my red gourd?" Jiang Lan asked.

He needed to figure out the other party's motive.

If he made his move, he wouldn't be able to find out even if he wanted to.

The Power of Nine Bulls was a bit hard to restrain.

"You're willing to lend it to me? It's the kind of borrow that won't be returned."

Xin Jiao stood in the middle of the herd, smiling at Jiang Lan.

However, there was disdain and contempt in his smile.

"I remember Senior Sister Ao saying that as long as my red gourd is gone. It'll be taken as being picked up by Senior Brother, wouldn't you return it then?" Jiang Lan didn't care about Xin Jiao's gaze.

"Oh, right." Xin Jiao seemed to have just remembered this matter and smiled.

"So if Junior Brother dies here and the red gourd is with him, then I'll definitely be a suspect?"

"Senior brother, you want to kill me just for a red gourd?" Jiang Lan remained calm throughout.

"It's about time. After all, I don't really like you." Xin Jiao didn't say anything else and directly asked the demonic beasts to attack.

He wanted to see the terrified expression on his face, but he still remained calm.

This made him an eyesore.

He planned to disassemble his limbs first.

Wasn't it normal for one to lose their breath after having their limbs bitten off by a demonic beast?

They were not here to have fun in the mystic realm.

As for his true purpose, why would he tell a dead person?

Moo!

Just as Xin Jiao finished his words, a bull with long horns started to run wildly.

It charged straight at Jiang Lan.

At this moment, Jiang Lan could feel the pressure of the air wave.

It was the bull's ability.

Xin Jiao looked at Jiang Lan. He would let the bull crash into him first before letting the other demonic beasts gnaw off his limbs.

Soon, the raging bull was about to hit Jiang Lan.

Xin Jiao felt as if he could already see Jiang Lan being sent flying.

But right at this moment, Jiang Lan moved.

He waved the back of his clenched fist.

Boom!!!

A tremendous loud sound was heard.

What followed was the sound of explosions.

Bang!

The bull's upper body was punched into a bloody mist.

The remaining portions of its body were also sent flying by the powerful blast.

Everything happened so fast that Xin Jiao could not react in time.

He was stunned.

What… What happened?

A raging bull at the Foundation Establishment stage was defeated by a cultivator who has just perfected the Qi Refinement stage?

"You concealed your cultivation level?"

At this moment, Xin Jiao finally saw the root of the problem.

His opponent was definitely not at the perfected stage of Qi Refinement.

"It's just a bull."

With that, he ordered all the demonic beasts to attack Jiang Lan at the same time.

The tiger-like demonic beasts rushed towards Jiang Lan.

In the face of these demonic beasts' attacks, Jiang Lan only had to use the strength of one bull.

Bang!

Bang!!

Bang!!!

In no time at all, all the beasts that had attacked him were turned into blood mists.

Not a single demonic beast was worth Jiang Lan's second punch.

However, even though these demonic beasts were weak, he did not lower his guard.

He took all of them seriously.

Finally, Jiang Lan watched as Xin Jiao approached him.

"You… What is your cultivation level?" Xin Jiao was a little taken aback.

This did not match his understanding at all.

How could someone deal with these demonic beasts so easily?

He never needed to use a second punch.

It was as if a giant was squashing ants.

This was unlike the Foundation Establishment stage.

Jiang Lan opened his mouth as he wanted to ask something.

But just as he did, Xin Jiao made his move.

There was a snake coiled in his hand. At this moment, both his hand and the snake attacked him.

Jiang Lan didn't panic. He only reached out his hand at a speed that the other party couldn't see clearly, grabbing that snake and that hand.

Then, he twisted it gently.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out.

Then, an arm fell to the ground, with a dead snake still wrapped around it.

"Ahhh!"

Xin Jiao held his broken arm and screamed.

It was too fast. It was really too fast. He had no idea what had just happened.

He had only gone over to attack his opponent, but in an instant, his arm was gone.

His snake with two pupils was also killed.

They were not on the same level.

The other party not in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

He was definitely at the Golden Core stage, or even higher.

"Senior, please spare my life. I was the one who failed to recognize someone formidable like you."

Xin Jiao looked at Jiang Lan in horror. He realized that the man was definitely not some disciple.

It was too terrifying.

At this moment, he suddenly recalled the two people who had been killed earlier.

One punch to the body.

This… this was exactly the same.
