Rising from Small Cloud Rain Technique

The Demon Beast Group began to slowly sprint, and Demon Birds flapped their wings, circling above the herd.

The battle was about to ignite again, Ji An infused Spell into the apricot yellow Banner.

Yellow Spirit Light enveloped his whole body, with Golden Flowers floating around.

These Golden Flowers appeared and disappeared, quite beautiful.

Under the cover of Spirit Light, Ji An secretly released two Defense Magic techniques, namely the Golden Armor Technique and the Pan Mountain Technique.

The Skin Refining Method of the Glaze-Gold Jade Bone Body reached Great Success in Silver Armor, coupled with two Great Perfection Level defense spells and the defense provided by the Spiritual Apricot Yellow Banner, he didn’t think any Foundation Establishment Stage Demon Beast could break his defense.

Counting the Golden Light Technique, he felt he was qualified to spar with Chao Origin Stage Cultivators, and could probably be counted as a decent sandbag.

Lin Qiu Bai’s sharp gaze stared at the approaching beast group, inwardly lamenting another hard battle today.

He had already spotted several Chao Origin Stage Demon Beasts, who usually wouldn’t join the battle so early.

This indicated the beasts did not abandon their attack due to the Demon King’s death yesterday, but instead intensified their assault with more elite forces.

Li Haoran’s Flying Sword sensed his master’s excitement and emitted a clear chime.

He softly spoke:

“Master, today I would like to spar alone with a Chao Origin Stage Demon Beast to hone my Sword Intent. Can you tell me which beast suits my current level?”

Although he had comprehended Sword Intent Transformation, he still needed to continually refine his Sword Intent.

The comprehension of Sword Intent is endless, sharpening Sword Intent is a lifelong journey for a Sword Cultivator.

Lin Qiu Bai turned his head to look at this most outstanding disciple, kindly saying:

“That white Tiger Demon is only of First Transformation of Chao Origin level, perfect for honing yourself!”

When he comprehended Sword Intent Transformation, he was already a Chao Origin Stage Cultivator.

The excellence of his disciple made him very gratified.

“Thank you, Master, for informing me, I’ll head to that section of the city wall to await its attack.”

A stream of light flashed, Li Haoran flew away.

…

A Wolf Demon jumped onto the city wall, directly pouncing toward Ji An.

’Do I look easy to bully? What gave you such an impression?’

A hint of coldness appeared at Ji An’s lips; it’s said Demon Beasts have very keen Spiritual Sense, which he now doubted.

He extended a finger forward, a flash of Golden Light followed, leaving a thumb-sized blood hole on the beast’s forehead, with blood gushing out.

This was just an Early-stage Foundation Establishment Demon Beast, incapable of withstanding his Geng Metal Finger.

Although this Magic Technique was merely Qi Refining Stage, it couldn’t resist the high quality of his Magical Power, and coupled with the amplification of his Metal Dao Seed, easily penetrated the beast’s skin and bones.

The Geng Metal Finger was the most mana-saving yet sufficiently lethal Magic Technique, favored against single enemies.

He glanced at below the city wall, revealing a slight smile.

Several beasts were struggling desperately, and the more they struggled, the faster they were engulfed by the quicksand floor.

A Grass Puppet, nearly two-meters high and blood-red all over, was wielding vine-like wires, piercing the bodies of every approaching beast.

As the beasts’ bodies quickly shriveled, the blood-red of the Grass Puppet intensified.

Although it was dealing only with Qi Refining Stage beasts, the number it could handle simultaneously was quite substantial.

This was the sole survivor among nearly a hundred Grass Puppets; such creations were originally lifeless, retaining their original size after being conjured.

For reasons unknown, the puppet he conjured possessed a “talent” for growth.

As the number of beasts hunted by the Grass Puppet increased, its body grew larger.

From initially around one-meter tall, it had grown to two meters, and its lifespan far exceeded normal duration.

Perhaps it was the unique effect of the Great Perfection Level ’All Grass and Trees Are Soldiers’, or perhaps it was his elevation in understanding of the Cultivation Technique, or perhaps it was the enhancement brought by the Wood Element Dao Seed, or perhaps multiple factors combined, he created a peculiar monster.

What astonished him further was, the aura of the Grass Puppet upon birth barely reached Foundation Establishment Stage, yet its current aura was at Mid-stage Foundation Establishment intensity, unknown if it could continue growing.

…

Perhaps Ji An’s performance was too exceptional, he was targeted by a Late-stage Foundation Establishment Perfection Level Golden Feathered Eagle.

The beast circled above his head, searching for a chance.

When it flew into his blind spot, it would swoop down occasionally, releasing Wind Blade Technique or Wind Dragon Roll spells, causing Ji An great annoyance.

The Demon Beast’s speed was incredibly fast, both Cold Wind Technique and Geng Metal Finger were elusive to the beast.

Fortunately, his defense was strong enough, despite repeatedly being struck by the beast’s spells, he remained unharmed.

Four layers of defensive methods were no jest.

He, a Spirit Binder, could unleash large-scale flame attacks, but also couldn’t hit the beast.

Ji An’s gaze turned cold, pondering how to deal with this beast.

The fastest Magic Technique attack he commanded was the Golden Light Technique, but the beast seemed like a patient hunter who continuously launched stealth attacks from afar, he wasn’t confident Golden Light Technique would definitely hit.

Suddenly, a flash of insight crossed Ji An’s mind.

Senior Sister Li Minghui had steadily gifted him the cultivation Beast Taming Secret Technique, which mentioned Golden Feathered Eagle’s habits.

This was an extremely proud Demon Beast, only raised by blood contract during the egg stage.

If such Demon Beasts saw their kind being raised by a cultivator, they would stop at nothing to kill that kind before they could rest.

To achieve this, they wouldn’t hesitate to take risks.

’Let’s see to what extent you’ll take risks!’

His gaze turned profound, Ji An patted his Storage Bag, summoning his Golden Feathered Eagle, then swiftly informed his Spirit Beast of his idea.

The Spirit Beast was the bait, but it must not be swallowed.

The Spirit Beast emitted a screech to indicate understanding.

It defiantly looked at its airborne kin, issuing a challenge cry, which was raw provocation.

Despite only being at Qi Refining Stage, with its master by its side, it knew no fear.

Its mission was clear: push the limits and provoke.

The creature habits chronicled in the Secret Technique were accurate, the Late-stage Foundation Establishment Golden Feathered Eagle discovered its kin being domesticated, issuing a fierce cry.

The soaring Golden Feathered Eagle tribe might die, but never servitude!

It dove downward, amidst flapping wings, Wind Blades showered like rain.

Ji An waved the apricot yellow Banner, filling the Void with countless Golden Flowers.

Simultaneously, he performed a Spell to retract the Spirit Beast back into the Spirit Beast Bag.

His aim was simple: to infuriate the Golden Feathered Eagle to the point of recklessness, creating an opportunity.

After its attack, he released the Spirit Beast again.

Ji An repeatedly did this, the Golden Feathered Eagle gradually realized, without dealing with this cultivator, it was impossible to kill that kin who desecrated Golden Feathered Eagles’ pride.

The Golden Feathered Eagle continuously attacked, drawing closer to Ji An.

’A bit closer, get even closer.’

Ji An muttered inwardly while evading attacks, never forgetting to intermittently release the Spirit Beast to provoke the foe.

The Golden Feathered Eagle saw the insignificant impact of magic attacks, growing increasingly furious.

For beasts, Magic is a mere supplement, their Demon Body being the greatest reliance and asset.

Its body was enveloped in Demon Qi, shielding itself, it dove down once more.

Its thick lower limbs were golden yellow and glossy, sharp claws flashed cold light, it wished to personally engage, tear through the enemy’s defense with claws, then devour using its peak.

In Ten Thousand Mountains, there was a kind of exceptionally hard stone.

It released Wind Blade Technique leaving only faint marks, but if it scratched hard with claws, it would definitely tear several inches deep marks.

At this moment, Ji An was ’coincidentally’ distracted by a Black Wind Wolf leaping onto the city wall.

When he resolved the Black Wind Wolf, it was too late to evade the swift grasp.

He rejoiced inwardly, finally awaited the enemy’s reckless move.

Ji An’s confidence in his four-layer defense believed it could not be instantly breached by the beast, so he enacted this strategy, seeming perilous but calculated through and through.

The Golden Feathered Eagle delighted, it was very close to the enemy, at its speed, the prey couldn’t escape!

Its claws gripped the enemy’s body, lifting it, simultaneously gripping hard with full strength.
