Chapter 198: Pursuit

to go with Yu Dongbao and Shao Zixia, he wouldn't be completely carefree going to a totally unfamiliar place. If he could know some information beforehand, it would naturally be better to be prepare...“It’s good that I finally managed to get Daoist Lu here. ” Wang De Feng looked at Lu Xiao Tian with a smile as he entered.

“Where is my fire dragon scale armor” Lu Xia Tian got straight to the point. The matter of the Hun Yuan Dao Zang was important; he didn't have time to waste in Moonlit City. If it weren't for this fire dragon scale armor, he wouldn't even bother coming back.

"It's already been refined. Daoist friend, please take a look." Wang Defeng took out a wooden box from his storage bag, opened it, and a surge of astonishing spiritual energy emanated from within.

"I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, fellow Daoist. Though I am one of the helmsmen of the Wang Clan Armory and have seen many good things in Moonlit City, I can't find anything comparable to this Fire Jiao Scale Armor. I wonder where your rare elixir is"

Lu XiaTian threw several pill bottles to Wang DeFeng.

Wang De Feng couldn't wait to open the pill bottle. His eyes widened in astonishment when he saw three Foundation Establishment Pills, one Rejuvenation Pill, and one Soul Nourishing Pill. The largest pills were some ordinary Elementary Yuan Qi Pills, but there were many of them. The first three kinds, however, were particularly rare.

"Lu Dao friend, the value of these pills exceeds the cost of refining several sets of artifacts. How about I pay the extra with spirit stones"

“Spirit Stone payment Do you think I lack ordinary lower-grade Spirit Stones” Lu XiaTian retorted.

"I don't know what you want, but I'll do my best to satisfy you." Wang Defeng said, patting his chest. The Qi Condensation Pill, the Beauty Retaining Pill, and the Soul Nourishing Pill, each was a rare treasure. The latter two were even rarer than the Qi Condensation Pill. What he coveted most wasn't just these pills themselves, but rather the channels through which Lu Xiaoteng had obtained them.

“The few people behind me need high-grade spirit stones. Just exchange them for high-grade spirit stones for me.” Lu Xia tian thought about it and said, usually, a Qi refining cultivator used mid-grade spirit stones well enough, but once they used a Dan Yuan artifact, mid-grade spirit stones couldn't support them for long, and it was equivalent to a puppet of the Qi refining period, requiring high-grade spirit stones to fight for a prolonged period. He had quite a few mid-grade spirit stones on hand, but he didn't have many high-grade spirit stones. He didn't have time to collect them himself, so he could only go through Wang Defeng, a powerful figure in望月城.

“High-grade spirit stones Those are rare, even for us foundation-building cultivators. Usually, if we have them, we'd keep them for ourselves.” Wang DeFeng said with a hint of difficulty on his face.

“The elixir I gave you is not something you can find at a random street stall. I only want high-grade spirit stones, of course, and the spiritual herbs related to the Jin Condensing Pill are also of great interest to the people behind me,” Lu Xiaodao said.

"You can even refine Golden Elixir Pills" Wang Defeng exclaimed in shock.

“As long as there are spirit herbs, it can always be refined.” Throwing down this sentence, Lu Xia Tian left the Wang family's armory and then went out of the city to return.

"Earth-Splitting Blade!" Yuan Hao, who was originally chatting with his two brothers, saw a golden light flash across the sky. His narrow eyes flashed with a fierce killing intent. He was all too familiar with the aura of the Earth-Splitting Blade. Since he built his foundation, he had never forgotten the humiliation its master had inflicted upon him.

“Brother Yuan, Sister Luo and the others will be here soon. Shall we wait for them here or go back to Moonlight City first” A young man a few years older than Yuan Hao but weaker in strength than him said. He had called Yuan Hao "Brother" for several years now.

"Senior Sister Luo" Yuan Hao's mouth twitched. Luo Qing was the only disciple of the younger generation who could be mentioned on par with him. Her Yue Ling Sword Body was not inferior to his Pure Yang Sword Body in the slightest, but his Lie Yang Dual-Arm Sword was now vastly different from before. It was a complete set of weapons. Even if Luo Qing had started cultivating Qi Refinement a few years earlier than him, once they truly clashed, he wouldn't necessarily fear her.

The only reason the other party was not considered equal to him was that their cultivation level was slightly higher. In the eyes of other disciples of the Gu Jian Sect, they ranked higher than him based on seniority and status. Yuan Hao was very curious about Luo Qing. Her temperament was extraordinary. Although she always wore a veil, one could still feel her ethereal beauty and captivating charm. It was a pity that even he couldn't see her face, but he had heard that Luo Qing had a close relationship with Lu Xia Tian, and over a year ago, she had even removed her veil in front of Lu Xia Tian. Thinking about this, Yuan Hao felt a mix of emotions. Regardless, Lu Xia Tian had to die!

"Yuan senior brother" Gong Xin called out again.

“I still have some things to attend to. You guys go meet up with Senior Sister Luo first. I’ll be back after I’m done, it won’t take long.” Before Gong Xin and the others could say anything more, Yuan Hao drew out his Liechu Sword and disappeared into the air.

>

Gong Xinxing wanted to say a few more words, but Yuan Hao had already disappeared, leaving only a small black dot. His speed couldn't keep up with Yuan Hao's, and besides, the other party was much stronger than him. Even if he could keep up, he wouldn't be able to stop him, so he could only give up.

“Gong師兄, what do you think Yuan師兄 is so anxious about I’ve never seen him like this before.” A girl with a delicate oval face beside her asked curiously.

"Of course, I'm going for revenge." Gong Xin shrugged.

“Seeking revenge Senior Brother Yuan is our newly promoted Foundation Establishment disciple, the most outstanding one. Even those Foundation Establishment cultivators with higher cultivation levels treat Senior Brother Yuan with respect. Who would be so bold to offend Senior Brother Yuan” the girl with an oval face said, looking confused.

"Our sect generally wouldn't do something so brazen, but other sects might. Yuan Senior Brother is skilled, but everyone has weaknesses. The only one who could make Yuan Senior Brother this angry must be that cultivator from Lingxiao Palace." Gong Xin saw the curious expression on her pretty junior sister's face and felt very satisfied with her vanity. Just then, Yuan Hao had also left, so his courage naturally grew bolder.

"Gong, Gong-shidi, are you talking about that Lu Xiaoteng who has a close relationship with Shijie Luo" The girl with an oval face suddenly realized. More than a year ago, when Luo Qing rarely took off her veil, it wasn't just Luo Yuan present. Both Luo Qing and Luo Qing were there. As Luo Qing was a renowned disciple of the Gujian Sect, the news quickly spread after what happened.

Besides that Lu Xiaoteng, naturally there was no one else. Gong Xin saw his junior sister approach, smelling the unique fragrance of the goose-egg faced girl, and couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart.

"What Lu Xia Tian"

A cold voice suddenly rang out, startling Gong Xin. He hadn't noticed anyone approaching him so closely. If the other party had malicious intentions, it would be troublesome. When he looked up, he saw a young girl in a light green long dress, her face covered by a thin veil. He breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed, "Senior Sister Luo, Senior Brother He, Senior Brother Jiang."

It turned out to be Luó Qīng and two other fellow disciples, as well as two disciples from the Man Beast Sect. Among them, two people's auras were even stronger than Luó Qīng's by a few points.

“Yuan Hao, what did you mean by that just now” Luo Qingxiu’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. She ignored Gong Xin’s thoughts about this Huang Ying junior sister. She knew all too well the animosity between Yuan Hao and Lu Xiaoteng. Hearing Gong Xin mention it just now, her originally calm heart suddenly rippled, unable to maintain its previous tranquility.

“Just now, a golden light flashed across the sky. I... I heard Brother Yuan say something about a Splitting Earth Blade, and then I chased after him. He told me to meet up with Sister Huang and Sister first.” Gong Xin spoke truthfully.

"Which way did he go" Lu Qing asked.

After confirming the direction, Luo Qing didn't say a word and followed Yuan Hao's direction closely.

"Brother Cheng, it seems that your sect's Luo Shimei is indeed as rumored, very concerned about this young man surnamed Lu." Hong Sheng of the Man Beast Sect, with his two eyes slightly protruding from his normal face, flashed a strange color and said to Cheng Puzhang beside him.

"Luo, little sister, I know about your relationship with Lu Xiaitian. However, since our sects are different, I hope you will maintain some distance from him." Cheng Pu followed closely behind and said in a admonishing tone.

"Senior Brother Cheng, my affairs are within my own control." Luo Qing frowned slightly and, out of politeness, merely gave Cheng Puzhang a curt reply.

Cheng Puzhang's heart was filled with frustration, but Luo Qing already had a Golden Core stage master as her teacher. Even if she didn't give him face, he was helpless.

Hong Sheng chuckled inwardly. This Cheng Pu Zhang considered himself quite refined, yet he was being challenged by a junior disciple who had only recently reached the Qi Refining stage. He wondered what the other party was thinking. These few individuals were all prominent figures among the Qi Refining disciples of Gu Jian Sect, but now they were being led around by a Ling Xiao Palace disciple. This would be a good opportunity to see what kind of person a disciple from Ling Xiao Palace truly was.

"What a persistent ghost!" Since cultivating the Qianzhu Sect's Ming Shen Shu and taking the Yang Hun Dan, a top-tier elixir for divine consciousness enhancement, Lu Xiaoteng's divine consciousness had already surpassed that of cultivators of the same rank. As for Yuan Hao, whose cultivation level was slightly weaker than his, Lu Xiaoteng quickly discovered his trail after chasing him for not long.

Since it was inevitable that things would come to an end sooner or later, Lu Xia Tian thought picking a date was no better than just going with the flow. He let out a cold snort and flew for over a hundred li before stopping on a sandbar by a river.

“Lu Xia Tian, you actually dare to wait for me here, how bold.” Yuan Hao let out a clear shout, a red light flashed, his sword hovered in front of Lu Xia Tian, his hands crossed over his chest, looking down at Lu Xia Tian.

"You dare to come after me Are you either incredibly foolish or are you just emboldened by the support of your fellow disciples"

Lu Xia Tian looked at Yuan Hao with great interest. Time flies, Yuan Hao had not only reached the Foundation Establishment stage, but his strength had also been consolidated. It seemed that he could rank in the middle and upper reaches even among those who had reached the first level of Foundation Establishment. Perhaps in two or three years, he would be able to break through to the second level. Judging from the current situation, it was probably only fifty or sixty years before he could reach the peak of Foundation Establishment. Such speed was terrifying. Although he was now at the third level of Foundation Establishment, it was achieved after several life-and-death struggles and with the help of his union with Dong Fang Yi. Otherwise, at a normal pace, his cultivation would not be much stronger than Yuan Hao's. In this year or so, although his cultivation speed was not slow due to the accumulation of large amounts of Peiyuan Dan, it was probably still not faster than Yuan Hao's. It's really infuriating to compare people to each other.

“Lu Xiaoteng, you dare to be so arrogant! This time next year, it will be your death anniversary!” Yuan Hao considered himself the favored son of heaven. Even those Foundation Establishment cultivators whose cultivation was far superior to his treated him with respect. He had never experienced such humiliation before, and this man truly ignited a bone-deep hatred within him.

“It's uncertain whose death day it is, but today if no one saves you, you will undoubtedly die.” If this were directed at Weng Zhihan, a shrewd person like the old man in black robe, no amount of words could shake his resolve. Yuan Haotien before him had exceptional talent, but because of that talent, he developed an arrogant personality since he was young. Even when facing his own disciples, he tried to maintain courtesy, but deep down, he held himself above others, believing himself superior. Now, he intended to expose the other party's fragile faade, causing them to lose their composure.

"Die!" Yuan Hao was so angry his face turned blue. He could ignore the ridicule of others, but Lu Xiaodai's words were like daggers, tearing open his fragile facade and leaving him exposed and vulnerable.

Enraged, Yuan Hao immediately summoned his Lie Chu Shuang Gong swords. The two top-grade magical artifacts, blazing with flames, were a matched set and perfectly suited to his lifelong cultivation techniques, amplifying their power exponentially. However, the mana consumption was similar to that of an average cultivator using a single sword. Even facing two enemies simultaneously, he was confident in his ability to fight. As for Lu Xiaoteng, he had only been a foundation builder a few years earlier than him. Since leaving the Blood-Colored Forbidden Land, Yuan Hao had specifically inquired about Lu Xiaoteng's situation. Lu Xiaoteng had obtained dozens of Foundation Establishment Pills, causing quite a stir in Lingxiao Palace. It didn't take much effort to find out about Lu Xiaoteng. He learned everything about him: an ordinary talent with no background, just like Luo Qing, a scattered cultivator who might have encountered some opportunities, acquiring some artifacts and pills through which he was able to overpower other cultivators during the Qi Refining period due to his substantial wealth. Now that they had both reached the Foundation Establishment stage, the methods Yuan Hao had once feared were useless. Such Lu Xiaoteng, what was there to be afraid of

Ice Soul Profound Sound!

Lu Xia Tian's face flashed with a hint of a smile. His cultivation was two levels lower than his, dealing with such an opponent was just a matter of moments.

But very quickly, the smile froze on his face. Almost at the same time he made his move, a layer of pale gold appeared on Yuan Hao's body. Yuan Hao remained unaffected, still controlling his Lie Chui Shuang Beng Jian to strike him from both sides.

Lu Xia Tian was surprised. He didn't expect the Bing Po Xuan Yin, which had always been effective against low-level cultivators, to fail for the first time. It seemed that the other party had a treasure that blocked divine sense attacks. This was really unexpected.

“So, that move didn't work out Besides those psychic attacks, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve”

Seeing Lu Xiaitian's surprised expression, Yuan Hao laughed triumphantly. Back then, he had fallen to Lu Xiaitian's trick. Otherwise, even if Lu Xiaitian could control three magic weapons at the same time when he was at the peak of Qi Refining, his Lieyang Shuangbeng Sword would have still had a fighting chance. But now, with both sides already at the Foundation Establishment stage, Lu Xiaitian using three magic weapons at once was tantamount to courting death. Foundation Establishment cultivators' duels weren't about who controlled more magic weapons. After returning to the sect, he told his master about his experience. With the experience of a Golden Core cultivator, he could naturally judge that this was a powerful divine sense attack, so he had given him a magic weapon specifically designed to defend against divine sense attacks beforehand.him.“False awakening, I and Hongyue barely escaped. Even my father sacrificed his own chance so that I could escape. Are you sure you want to go in” Mentioning her father, Yun Xiaoqi’s eyes turned red...
