Chapter 2076: The True Face of the Fire Cloud Monster

the Ziwu Leiyang Tomb. Regardless of whether he won or lost, there had to be a result. The Tuzhu Buddha Sect entrusted him with an important task and didn't mention it. They simply threw Lu Xiaoteng...This Fire Cloud Demon was proficient in the art of fire escape. In Yehuo Plain, he could use the flowing flames to hide and disappear, but here there was no space for him to perform his miraculous fire escape techniques.

The eagle-bodied strange beast spread its wings and soared through the sky. In a few breaths, it caught up again.

The Fierce Cloud Monster was suddenly frightened. Chasing after him was the merged Old Monster, even in its prime, he had to be extremely careful, let alone now that he was injured.

"If it was because my previous words were disrespectful, I hope Master Lu can forgive me." The Huoyun Monster said as he fled.

“You know too much.” Lu Xia Tian had already heard the Fire Cloud Monster's self-talk before. How could he let the Fire Cloud Monster go When he fled from Yuan Ling City all the way to Yehuo Plain, he had heard about the might of the Fire Cloud Monster from several rat demons. Hundreds of years have passed, and this Fire Cloud Monster is still stuck in the Shenxu realm. The Fire Cloud Monster said nothing more, secretly regretting that it came out of Yehuo Plain this time. If it was still in Yehuo Plain, he might not have been caught. Now, he felt completely hopeless.

A sudden dark cloud covered the sky. The Fiery Cloud Fiend looked up in horror, and saw that the strange beast with an eagle's body and a bear's face had already blocked out the sky above him, swooping down. Just like a hawk hunting its prey.

Those sharp claws slashed downward, several bloody claw shadows flying through the air.

Whoosh, several blood-colored claw shadows shot into the fire cloud that spanned several acres. A burst of flames erupted inside, causing the fire cloud to churn and roil even more violently than before. Suddenly, the fire cloud exploded into four separate parts, which then flew in four different directions simultaneously.

"You've got some skills." The hawk-shaped beast spoke without a hint of emotion. Its wings spread, and suddenly four more hawk-shaped beasts, similar in size, swooped out in all directions, catching up to the four red clouds simultaneously.

Boom, boom, boom! In a series of fierce claw shadows, four fire clouds exploded, revealing not a single person or monster within, but two eyes the size of human heads, each connected by a thread of flesh and blood. It was unnervingly creepy to look at.

"It seems the Fire Cloud Monster is not just a simple phantom creature from the Fire Cloud Realm. If I hadn't driven you out of the Fire Cloud, even I would have been fooled by you. The world is indeed vast and strange."

The eagle-bodied beast looked in utter astonishment at the pair of eyes, each the size of a human head. It was a freak of nature that this monster could survive with only these two eyes and a meager amount of connected flesh. Lu Xiaoteng inwardly mused that the owner of these eyeballs must have already surpassed him in strength. He thought to himself that if he were in this situation, it would be impossible for him to keep his life.

It's no wonder that this Fire Cloud Monster, even after spending so many years in the Yehuo Plain, has yet to advance to the Nascent Soul Realm. The reason is quite clear. An ordinary person would have perished long ago, let alone advanced. Yet, this monster has been wreaking havoc across the Yehuo Plain for years. There must be a reason for its actions. Lu Xiaoteng thought to himself that he had underestimated the depth of hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the chaotic Demon Realm.

“To my surprise, I've been forced to reveal my true form by you, Young Lu. I hope you can show mercy and spare this old man's life, don't force him to use the forbidden death curse.” The pair of blood-connected eyeballs were no longer filled with the panicked look of the previous fiery cloud monster facade, instead, they exuded an astonishing calmness and composure. This also solidified Lu Xiaoxiao's belief that he wouldn't attack out of this revelation.

"The rumored forbidden art" Lu Xia Tian was instantly astonished. He wasn't surprised that these eyes called him "little friend," after all, someone in this state could still be alive, their cultivation level must be far beyond his own. He originally thought he was just chasing down a small cultivator at the Shenxu Realm, but unexpectedly, he had caught a big fish."

“Since Young Master Lu has heard of the Dead Curse Technique, he probably wouldn't try it lightly.”

A deathly gray, desolate expanse suddenly appeared in his eyes. Through the hawk-like vision of the beast he was controlling, Lu Xia Tian felt an endless wasteland of desolation and lifelessness. He realized this old monster wasn't just messing with him. From these eyes, Lu Xia Tian sensed a tremendous danger.

"Since you, Dao friend, have been hiding in the Yehuo Plain with a changed appearance for many years, you must be evading something and planning something. Now that I have seen your true form, do you not intend to use me to eliminate your enemies" Lu Xiaotian did not loosen his grip because he felt threatened. The other party was nothing more than a pair of blood-connected eyeballs right now. Even if their previous realm was higher, they might not be his opponent at this time. As for the dead curse technique, his true form was not here right now. Even if he abandoned this eagle-shaped beast and left these eyeballs behind, it would not be a loss for Lu Xiaotian.

Leaving such a potentially huge threat unchecked was far more dangerous than the threat of a single Six-Fusion Soul Eagle Beast. Weighing the two dangers, the lesser evil was to deal with this old monster. Land Xiaotian's journey to Qiyin Temple was already fraught with peril, and now that this monster had seen through his identity, even a slight hint from him could lead to a major ambush by Qiyin Temple while he was there.

“It seems you have ulterior motives for going to Qianyin Temple. What are your intentions” The pair of eyes, connected only by a few thin blood vessels, darkened.

“It’s not about how I want it, but how my friend can dispel the doubts in my heart. If there’s a way that we both can accept, then naturally that would be best. Otherwise, even if it means giving up this strange beast, I must eliminate the threat.” Lu Xiaoxiao said in a flat tone, “With your friend’s previous realm, cultivation, and experience, they are far superior to me. I believe there must be a way to achieve a win-win outcome.”

Lu Xia Tian directly kicked the ball back to those eyeballs.

"Little friend, what brings you to Qinyin Temple" Yan Zhuzi asked.

"Go and fetch a Buddhist treasure," Lu XiaTian did not specify what it was, even Li Dan Wang only told him it was a box of green wood, and he did not specify what was inside the box of green wood. Moreover, that box of green wood must be opened with a special technique, otherwise, the self-destruction ban within the box will be activated, ultimately resulting in an empty trip.

“To have just recently advanced to the Nascent Soul realm and yet dare to go to Thousand Sounds Temple for the Buddha Sect’s treasures, you truly are bold.” His eyes gleamed wickedly. “However, this old man has fallen to such a state, thanks in no small part to those bald donkeys. If you succeed, you can also help this old man vent some anger. So, this old man has a jade box that can hold these old eyes of mine, placing them inside your spirit beast pouch. You take this old man with you to Thousand Sounds Temple, that way, you won’t have to worry about this old man having any ulterior motives.”

Lu Xia tian hesitated for a moment. The dead curse technique was no small matter. At this time, he was only using his deputy primordial spirit to control the eagle-bodied strange beast. Even if the other party used the dead curse technique, it could only affect his deputy primordial spirit at most. Besides his main primordial spirit, Lu Xia tian had twelve deputy primordial spirits, so he was naturally not afraid. However, if he brought this old monster back to him, this old monster would use the dead curse technique to affect his main body, the consequences would be unpredictable.

(SanQi Chinese) as if a razor-sharp sword had cleaved his consciousness wide open.“This is it.” Lu Xia Tian’s main body, under the influence of the Soul-Forgetting Stone's counterforce, had found the location of Xi...
