Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 469: Chapter 78: Unceasing Gains!

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, patted the spirit beast bag at his waist, and a yellow spirit light flew out, transforming into a giant beast with a tiger’s head, a leopard’s body, and wings on its back and sharp claws on its feet,

this was Zhou Xun’s mount, the Earth Element Beast.

”I’ll leave this Bear Demon to you, capture it alive for me!”

”Master, just watch!”

The Earth Element Beast Feng Chong nodded its massive head, then turned into a blur, charging straight at the giant bear below.

A mere Tier Three Low-Grade Demon King, Zhou Xun naturally had no intention to act, fortunately, his Earth Element Beast possessed considerable strength, making it perfect to handle this task.

The moment the Earth Element Beast emerged, it was sensed by the giant bear!

”Roar!”

The giant bear roared at the Earth Element Beast, then charged on all fours in Zhou Xun’s direction!

”Boom!”

The two giant beasts collided heavily,

the giant bear, like a large mountain, was sent flying back, crashing hard at the foot of the mountain, crushing several giant boulders into powder.

”Too weak to withstand a single blow!”

The Earth Element Beast Feng Chong chuckled lightly, flapped its wings, and four wind tornadoes, each over ten yards large, formed in mid-air, sweeping towards the giant bear below!

The giant bear, still dazed from the fall, had not yet reacted,

when its limbs were caught by the four tornadoes, unable to move, and then was gently laid before Zhou Xun.

”This dumb bear is really too weak to fight!” grumbled Feng Chong,

unexpectedly managing to capture the giant bear alive in just two rounds of battle,

this outcome surprised Zhou Xun too since the giant bear was also a solid Tier Three Great Demon, its handling was pitifully inadequate.

With a flick of his finger, a Qi force struck the bear’s head, making it roar at him instantly.

Seeing this, Zhou Xun frowned,

”This dumb bear doesn’t seem to have any wits, lacking the agility and wisdom of a Tier Three Great Demon!”

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Xun patted his waist again, and a red shadow flew out, binding the giant bear tightly, it was his ”Crimson Flame Rope,” a trophy from Master Fengyue.

With this, the giant bear had no way to resist even if it wanted to,

then Zhou Xun placed a hand on the bear’s head, injecting mana to investigate,

after a long while, Zhou Xun released his hand, his expression was not very pleasant.

It turned out that this giant bear had the demonic power and physique of a Tier Three Great Demon, but its intelligence was no different from a beast.

It is known that in the outside world, even Tier One and Tier Two Demon Beasts would possess a certain level of intelligence, though far from human levels,

this meant Zhou Xun’s plan to capture a Tier Three Great Demon as a guide was impossible to achieve,

however, there was also good news,

Demon Beasts in the Secret Realm without intelligence were much easier to deal with,

cross-level battles were also quite common.

Looking at the howling bear in front of him, Zhou Xun frowned, raised his left hand to form a sword finger,

”Go!”

pointing at the bear’s head!

”Pfft—”

A Qi force pierced straight through, instantly killing it.

Then Zhou Xun harvested materials from the giant bear, obtaining a Tier Three Low-Grade Earth Attribute Demon Pill, as well as bear skin, bear gall, and so on.

After tidying up everything, Zhou Xun stored the Earth Element Beast back into the spirit beast bag and continued forward.

...

Along the way, Zhou Xun had gained a considerable haul, over thirty Tier Two Spirit Medicines, including two Tier Three Low-Grade ones,

two sets of demon beast materials, and one Tier Three Low-Grade Spirit Wood.

This was just the harvest from his first day.

At night, Zhou Xun didn’t continue traveling; in such places, it was more suitable to stop and rest at night.

Zhou Xun stopped in front of a cave,

the cave is about two yards high, extremely deep, over a hundred yards deep, and very dry inside, making it an excellent place to spend the night!

”This will do!”

Murmuring to himself, Zhou Xun patted his waist and took out the Tier Three Middle-Grade ”Ice and Fire Cloud Array,” setting it up,

watching the faint light shield envelop the entire mountain, Zhou Xun finally felt a tinge of security.

Following the cave entrance, he walked over ten yards in, the entrance turned a corner, and then continued inward.

More intriguingly, there were claw marks appearing on the cave walls, seemingly from some kind of demon beast,

”Could it be that this cave was dug out by some demon beast, and inside is its lair?”

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun instantly summoned the Middle-Grade Defensive Magical Treasure, the Golden Jade Plate, simultaneously taking out a Tier Three High-Grade Talisman in his hand, ready to activate it at any moment.

Zhou Xun continued to advance, reaching the innermost part, suddenly discovering a stone chamber over ten yards large, while a faint thunder spirit power wafted in the air.

Zhou Xun’s heart suddenly tightened,

this indicated that a Thunder Attribute Demon Beast once lived in this cave.

Demon beasts with such exotic attributes usually have unusual bloodlines, making them difficult to deal with.

Carefully entering the stone chamber, Zhou Xun began to carefully investigate,

only to see piles of rocks around, with battle marks on the surrounding walls, dried bloodstains scattered on the ground, along with some remaining demon beast remnants!

Zhou Xun picked up the only remaining scale armor, injecting mana to probe, filled with a faint thunder spirit power, consistent with the thunder spirit power sensed at the cave entrance earlier,

belonging to the same demon beast.

”It seems this unnamed Thunder Element Demon Beast was killed by some stronger presence that invaded the cave and ate it brutally!”

Moreover, based on Zhou Xun’s probe of the remnants, its owner should also be at Tier Three level!

Being able to prey on Tier Three Thunder Attribute Great Demons, this ’culprit’ must be extraordinary!

After pondering for a while, Zhou Xun patted the spirit beast bag, summoning the Earth Element Beast.

”Greetings, Master!”

As soon as Feng Chong appeared, he respectfully saluted Zhou Xun.

”Tonight, you will keep watch. If there is any disturbance, report to me immediately!”

”Yes”

The Earth Element Beast sniffed around, soon discovering something amiss,

”Master, it seems a battle took place here!”

”Indeed, a Tier Three Great Demon was preyed upon in its own lair, be careful while you keep watch!”

”Yes!” The Earth Element Beast nodded, then opened its mouth, releasing dozens of yellow light orbs that vanished into the stone walls.

”This is an Earth Attribute Divine Technique I’ve recently comprehended, capable of preventing intrusions!”

Feng Chong explained,

having consumed the inner core of that earth attribute demon beast earlier, he was still undergoing transformation, soon he should reach High-Grade.

”Not bad!”

Lightly praising, Zhou Xun sat down cross-legged, beginning to meditate and regulate his breath.

Until the early hours of the next day, Zhou Xun slowly opened his eyes,

fortunately, the night passed without incident.

Zhou Xun intended to continue his journey, so he put the Earth Element Beast back into the spirit beast bag to rest, simultaneously taking down the array, and continued toward the direction indicated by the Divination Compass.

Half a day later, Zhou Xun descended upon a certain valley,

he discovered something unusual,

in the middle of the valley’s grassland, lay a beast horn over a yard long, with an irregularly torn base, faintly stained with red blood,

as if it was freshly torn off,

what made Zhou Xun feel solemn was the Thunder Attribute Spiritual Power emanating from the beast horn!
