Chapter 713: Different Encounters
valleys, while a biting wind howled across the peaks. A narrow, winding goat path snaked its way upwards, disappearing into the distance.Lu Xia Tian used the Wind Controlling Art to walk on the mount...Bai Ze's frail body fell to the ground helplessly, with a large amount of blood gushing out from his wounds.
Lu Xiaitian retracted the transparent flying sword between his hands. This flying sword was first forged from an extremely rare Void Sword Stone, then cultivated in the dantian for a long time. Later, it was refined again with the Netherworld Sword Orchid until a sword embryo was formed, and it could finally be used in combat. However, he didn't expect its power to be so great. Originally, fighting this pair of cunning siblings required some effort to subdue them.
I didn't expect that after taking out the small sword in my body, the battle would be resolved so quickly. It was comparable to the power of the Demon Suppressing Pagoda. Especially when performing the Illusory Rain Falling Sword Style, his combat strength was formidable. However, Lu Xia Tian soon smiled wryly.
Though this technique is incredibly powerful, it drains nearly one-third of his magical power with a single use. It seems that he cannot use it frequently in the future. Otherwise, after using it three times, his magical power would be completely depleted, and even the medicinal pills that replenish his magical power consumption wouldn't be able to keep up.
The translucent sword lightly vanished into his sleeve. Lu XiaTian reached out his empty hand, and with a grasp, Bai Ze siblings' storage bags were taken over.
Sun Youcai had almost forgotten the venom coursing through his own veins. Seeing that either of these siblings was stronger than him, especially the stocky man who was a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, he felt a chill run down his spine. The two of them joined forces, yet they were effortlessly killed by Lu Xiaoteng. It wasn't merely defeat, but a complete annihilation, with their primordial spirits crushed within the sharp sword energy.
Seeing Lu Xia Tian's indifferent face, Sun Youcai shivered. Compared to those monks who looked fierce and menacing, Lu Xia Tian's pale face seemed truly terrifying to Sun Youcai. His every move seemed to take the lives of other cultivators as if they were grass, without a hint of satisfaction. This kind of indifference only appeared on those who had killed a large number of cultivators.
Although Sun Youcai's cultivation level wasn't high, his ability to survive until now relied heavily on his sharp eyes. Had he not encountered Lu Xiaitian during his tribulation in the Black Heaven Mountain Range, they would have never crossed paths. However, he found it hard to believe that a cultivator who had only been through a tribulation five years ago could achieve such a level. There must be something unusual about it; perhaps it wasn't as simple as an ordinary tribulation back then.
"Just drink this, it should be the antidote." Lu Xiaoteng rummaged through Bai Ze's bag. There were several pill bottles inside. Opening them revealed pills for healing injuries, replenishing mana, and accelerating spiritual awareness recovery, as well as one bottle of detoxification pills. With Lu Xiaoteng's mastery in alchemy, he naturally identified the detoxification pill with ease.
That short and stout man, possessing the pair of spirit pets Golden Silver Serpents to fight with, must certainly have some antidote on hand.
"This for me Why would you help me" Sun Youcai took the antidote pill, his face startled. Although the two of them were somewhat acquainted, there wasn't much extra friendship between them.
"Of course I have something to ask you. After taking the antidote, don't try to play tricks on me. I can save you, and if I want to punish you, it wouldn't be difficult." Lu Xia Tian put away Bai Ze siblings' storage bags and wasn't worried about Sun Youcai playing any tricks on him.

"That's true, Senior Lu. Just ask whatever you want. This life of mine is already a gift. Even if I had ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to deceive you." Sun Youcai said with a wry smile.
This Sun Youcai was quite sensible. After some inquiries from Lu Xiaoteng, it turned out that after entering this place from the Liu Ding Yin Xuan Formation, several people had gone their separate ways. Sun Youcai happened to land not far from Jin Changdao and the others, and they soon regrouped.
However, unlike him, the Unkempt Taoist wasn't so lucky. By the time they found the Unkempt Taoist, his body had been picked clean, leaving only a tattered Daoist robe and some storage pouches scattered nearby that could barely be recognized as his. As for Wu Xiaai, there was no trace of him.
Later, they also encountered some demon beasts. With several people working together, they managed to kill a few, but they didn't encounter any formidable ghost clan members. Lu Xia Tian heard this and felt speechless. It truly was different strokes for different folks. He had faced countless dangers and fierce battles along the way. Even encounters with members of the Tubo tribe were intense, and the ghost clan members he later met weren't easy to deal with either.
As for Shao Zixia and the others who joined him, they also faced many hardships.

“I presume Fellow Daoist Lu has also noticed, that Golden Long Dao is indeed here for the Nascent Soul Fruit, and has even discovered its exact location.” Finally, Sun Youcai's eyes flickered as he said, “Fellow Daoist Lu, you have been hiding your strength along the way. I presume you are also here for this item”
"The specific location of the embryo fruit It seems you know. So, it means Jin Changdao hasn't gotten his hands on it yet" Lu Xiaoteng's face turned pale, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes. Naturally, he hadn't come to the wrong place.
“I also know that along with Jin Changdao, two trees were discovered bearing more than ten Jieying fruits. However, judging by the time, they will not mature until a month or two later. Besides, there are quite powerful demonic beasts lurking near the Jieying fruits, so Jin Changdao has remained inactive.” Sun Youcai explained.
"What's the deal with that young man in the undergarment"
“You said that fellow named Ye Sicheng isn't a simple person. He managed to win over He Rushuang so quickly. I presume Daoist Lu also saw what happened by the river”
Sun Youcai let out a knowing chuckle, a gleam in his eyes. However, seeing Lu Xiaoteng's furrowed brow, his heart skipped a beat. As shrewd as he was, he immediately sensed that Lu Xiaoteng didn't want to waste time on this matter. Judging by the current situation, although He Ruxu was considered stunningly beautiful, she didn't seem to catch Lu Xiaoteng's eye.
“That Ye Sicheng was met halfway. He was being chased by a ninth-order early demonic spider at the time and we saved him. Afterward, he followed us.”
“This man also learned about the news of the Jade Embryo Fruit. He colluded secretly with He Rushuang, and although Jin Changdao was furious, he had some respect for He Rushuang. However, he was worried that He Rushuang would get too close to Ye Sicheng. Coincidentally, I know a bit about stealth techniques, so Jin Changdao sent me to secretly monitor the two of them. Unexpectedly, I was discovered. If I hadn't met Lu Daoist by chance, I'm afraid I would have already fallen into the hands of the bandits. Most importantly, judging from the current situation, Ye Sicheng is harboring ill intentions. It is very likely that these siblings were moved by Ye Sicheng, and his power is definitely not simple.”
"What are you planning to do now" Sun Youcai could see it, and Lu Xiaotien could see it too.
"This, Jin Changdao is still oblivious to the situation, that Ye Sicheng is not a simple person, and it's unknown if he has other helpers. This old man's strength is low, and with Lu Daoyou saving this old man's life, naturally, one would follow Lu Daoyou's orders." Sun Youcai chuckled.g speed.The number of the Quab tribe was still inferior to that of the White Bone Carvings. In mid-air, they were being slaughtered into a mass.
