Chapter 94: Intercept

ood fortune on your side." His eyes darted between the two of them, particularly lingering on Xiang Qingcheng who still held onto Lu Xiaoteng's arm. "It seems..."“Brother Tian, Sister Qingcheng, don’t...On the winding and undulating mountain path, a young man in green clothes ran swiftly. His speed was remarkable.

Lu Xiaoxiao smiled helplessly. As the date to travel to the Blood Colored Forbidden Land drew closer, the market became even more bustling. He had originally planned to rent a spirit bird to go to Chifeng Town, but after leaving the inn outside the market, he learned that all the spirit birds had already been rented out by other cultivators.

“It seems like I can only go to the nearby Lingtian Peak Domain to see if there are any spirit birds. Otherwise, I'll have to walk to Chifeng Town.”

The Lingtian Peak Domain is the closest to the market town, and as one of the most powerful peak domains of Lingxiao Palace, if you can't rent a spirit bird here, you probably won't be able to find one anywhere else.

"You little punk, you dare to come to the Lingtian Peak domain after offending me!"

As they passed through a rocky forest, a group of six or seven people blocked Lu Xia Tian's path. Leading the group was Luo Qian, with an imposing face, and beside him was Su Qing, whose features were charmingly alluring, along with five other attendants.

"Brother Luo, these past few days I haven't had any suitable weapons to practice martial arts with. It's so boring," Su Qing said, pouting her lips. Her adorable expression made Luo Qian and the others feel their hearts flutter.

Luo Qian patted his chest and crossed his arms, saying, "Sister Su, just watch, today I'll get back at you for that grudge from before."

"The palace gate strictly forbids private fights, do you want to fight here" Lu Xia Tian frowned, he didn't expect Luo Qian to be so vengeful.

“Hmph, this place is a mess of rocks with few people around. As long as we don't make too much noise, no one will notice. Punishing you, little brat, won't take much effort.” The young man in brocade chuckled, “Brother Luo, why don't I go first I'll definitely beat this kid so badly he won't know which way is north.”

"Alright then, you go up. Give this boy a taste of his own medicine, teach him a lesson, for daring to make Sister Su angry."

Luo Qian thought to himself that if he were a cultivator of the thunder system, although his attacks would be powerful, they would also be somewhat noticeable. Although this place was rarely visited, if things got chaotic, the foundation-building seniors in the Lingtian Peak domain could still easily find out.

"Alright! Boy, take this!" Jin Yi Qing roared after hearing that, drew out a spirit blade, and slashed towards Lu Xia Tian fiercely.

These guys are really fearless. Lu XiaTian inwardly sighed, feeling unlucky. He wished he hadn't come to Lingtian Peak Domain in the first place and stirred up so much trouble. But then again, especially Luo Qian and that Su Qing, their backgrounds were powerful. Even if they had broken palace rules, they probably wouldn't be severely punished. Now, the only thing to do was get through this immediate hurdle.

Lu Xiaoteng patted the jade gourd at his waist, and a large number of shadow ants burst out from it.

"Turns out it's a Worm Cultivator, no wonder they are so arrogant."

Luo Qian let out a disdainful cold snort, but the young man in fine clothes wasn't so relaxed. After all, his strength was far inferior to Luo Qian's.

The young man in fine clothes offered a spirit talisman, forming a third-tier Water Spirit Shield. His face hardened as he sped towards Lu Xiaoteng, aiming to subdue him before the Shadow Ants could encircle him.

Lu Xia Tian wouldn't allow him to have his way. With a tap of his toes on the ground, his body floated backward with uncanny lightness. At the same time, he flung out several wind blades that struck precisely between the Yin Ant's gaps, hitting the thick Shui Ling shield of the young man in embroidered clothes. The blue ripples on the Shui Ling armor trembled violently.

Luo Qian, who had been hugging his chest, was startled. The swarm of shadow ants continued to fly around incessantly. Lu Xia Tian's release of several wind blades was not only incredibly fast but also remarkably precise in its angles. It was something Luo Qian had never seen before. Luo Qian's face darkened. He knew Zhang Tao's abilities all too well. Having lost the chance to strike first and being surrounded by so many shadow ants, he was likely to lose more than win. However, Luo Qian quickly thought to himself that using Zhang Tao to consume some of the opponent's shadow ants would not be a bad idea either.

"Damn it, if you have the guts, fight me with real swords! Hiding behind a swarm of ants is no way to be a warrior!" Zhang Tao had been trying to get close several times but failed. Now surrounded by the shadow ants, he angrily roared in frustration.

"Idiot," Lu Xiaoti muttered under his breath, allowing a cultivator to get close for combat. He really had the nerve to say that. Lu Xiaoti didn't pay any attention, merely standing dozens of feet away and manipulating the ant swarm. Occasionally, he would unleash a few wind blades or earth spikes, causing the water shield to tremble violently.

Zhang Tao roared angrily, his hands wielding the knife, suddenly slashing out a circle of blades. The chilling blade aura surged like quicksilver, scattering the shadow ants shrouded in Shui Ling Jia. In an instant, dozens were blown away, over twenty directly cleaved in two. Lu Xiaotian's face remained calm. His six years in Heishui Zhai mine wasn't for nothing. The jade gourd housed a large number of shadow ants, enough to consume a significant amount of time. The jade gourd trembled, and dozens more shadow ants flew out, filling the gaps in the encircling circle. After a while, Zhang Tao was on the brink of defeat, his situation dire.

At that moment, a bolt of lightning shot up into the sky, enveloping dozens of shadow ants in its light. The dozens of shadow ants struck by lightning were charred to black. They fell to the ground with a sizzling sound, thick black smoke rising from them, dead beyond recognition. The other shadow ants scattered and fled in fright.

"Taking advantage of my fight with him, you attacked him from behind. Senior Brother Luo, your methods are indeed impressive."

Lu Xiaitian's face darkened with anger. While insect cultivators were formidable, lightning cultivators were rarer. Among cultivators of the same rank, lightning cultivators often had sharper attack methods. Luo Qitian possessed exceptional talent and was a top expert among the Qi Condensation disciples of Lingxiao Palace. He couldn't possibly win solely relying on his shadow ants.

“To deal with you, I wouldn't resort to sneak attacks. It's just that you've been too aggressive. But a mere worm cultivator, thinking that raising a few insects would make you someone important Now I'll show you what it means to have someone beyond human.” Luo Qian wasn't willing to make a move, but Lu Xiaotian was indeed troublesome. Zhang Tao hadn't even gotten close before showing signs of defeat, and the others under his command were equally no match. He could only do it himself. Luo Qian reached out and took out a spear two zhang long. It flashed with electric light, pointing at Lu Xiaotian from afar. With a *swoosh*, a bolt of lightning-charged air filled the air, sending shivers down everyone's spine.

Lu Xia Tian's figure flickered, and he immediately moved two zhang away. The place where he had been standing was already struck by lightning, creating a large pit. Shards of stone flew everywhere.

Luo Qian let out a surprised exclamation, not expecting Lu Xiaoteng to dodge so easily. Relying on his rich combat experience, Luo Qian used his footwork, darting forward and closing in on Lu Xiaoteng without giving him any room to maneuver. His spear swept across the air.

“Blazing Firestorm!” Lu Xia Tian drew his hands back, and a massive amount of fireballs suddenly appeared behind him, shooting towards Luo Qian like rain. The area within several dozen feet was enveloped, making it impossible to resist.

“Just with this amount of attack, you think you can stop me Dream on!” Luo Qian waved his spear, sending several fireballs flying. However, he found them utterly bothersome. Thus, he raised a thunder light shield that consumed a considerable amount of energy, blocking in front of him and pushing forward like a wild bull.

Large flames slammed into the lightning shield, exploding into tiny sparks.

The sight was so dazzling that it made those around them squint.

"Lu senior brother, be careful!" The young man in brocade who had been beaten by Lu Xia Tian before shouted a warning.

With a deafening boom! Luo Chen felt a tremendous force surge from the Lei Guang Shield, almost causing him to lose his footing. Amidst the flames, a gigantic stone cone emerged, smashing into the shield. Luo Chen's body involuntarily strained as he stumbled backward, sliding six or seven steps before finally managing to halt. King saw the battle flag reappear, and his heart was filled with terror. Earlier, Sanzang Corpse Ape had fallen within this great formation.Though his strength was not inferior to that of the Sanjian...
