Chapter 348: Lending a Helping Hand
“Xiao Tianfan? How can it be him?” Ling Chuxi was taken aback. She knew Xiao Tianfan’s cultivation level very well. He had the cultivation of the realm of Great Fulfilment in addition to the Turning Cloud Gesture, and it far exceeded the ordinary experts of the Great Fulfilment. If not for Ling Chuxi working hard early on to learn the Turning Cloud Gesture secretly, and a bright idea that appeared at the last minute, she might not have defeated him.
Such an expert had actually ended up like this. What kind of beast was lurking behind him?
“Quick, run!” Xiao Tianfan landed on the ground, then shouted and waved at Ling Chuxi frantically. She reckoned he did not know who she was yet; apart from panic and anxiety, there was not a trace of surprise or recognition in his eyes.
Ling Chuxi hesitated, and suddenly a monster beast came charging out of the forest, roaring furiously. It looked like a giant bear, and was covered in thick golden-brown fur. Its claws that were sharper than a sword flashed with a chilling gleam, and there was a black horn on its head. Following the loud thunder-like roar were odd blue flashes of light, and with a rumbling crash, those thick, towering trees were all uprooted.
“A Shocking Thunder Beast!” Ling Chuxi gasped.
The Shocking Thunder Beast was a Level-8 monster beast. Its cultivation could almost be compared to the Great Fulfilment, and with its innate defenses and strength, it was no wonder that Xiao Tianfan was looking so disheveled.
Ling Chuxi was contemplating whether to run for her life when the Shocking Thunder Beast charged towards her. A tall boulder was smashed into powder by its horn, and gravel sprayed around her like raindrops.
Its incredible strength stunned Ling Chuxi.
Ling Chuxi was incredibly depressed. This time, she had really forgotten to look at the calendar when she went out. First, she had been hunted down by an old pervert for a thousand miles, and now she had encountered this Level-8 monster beast. Such bad luck.
As the Shocking Thunder Beast approached, Ling Chuxi knew that she definitely could not escape. Just before she could draw her sword, Xiao Tianfan leaped in front of her and shouted, “Escape quickly!” His hands had already formed the Turning Cloud Gesture and he aimed a punch at the Shocking Thunder Beast with all his might.
The accumulation of Battle Qi was sharp and practically unstoppable. The Shocking Thunder Beast felt its power and lowered its head. As it howled angrily, a blue light appeared on its horn and collided with Xiao Tianfan’s palm.
There was an earth-shattering blast, and a massive pressure exploded outwards.
Xiao Tianfan was sent flying – it would take a while before he could climb back up again.
The Shocking Thunder Beast stumbled back a few steps, shaking its head vigorously. However, it was still standing. It let out another furious roar and charged again, this time towards Ling Chuxi.
Ling Chuxi had taken the opportunity just now to form the finger gesture, and she removed Luo Chen Sword from its sheath. Starlight glittered like water droplets on the sword, making it shine brilliantly. With the accumulative and multiplying effect of the Turning Cloud Gesture, the Battle Qi which was accumulated at the tip of the sword was fearsome.
Even the Shocking Thunder Beast sensed danger, and the horn on its head started to flash with a bright blue light.
Clang! The Luo Chen Sword pierced the horn of the Shocking Thunder Beast with a clear sound, like gold and iron colliding.
The Shocking Thunder Beast’s horn which was as hard as iron, was broken off by Luo Chen Sword. The beast gave a blood-curdling scream, and Ling Chuxi was forced back a few steps. Her arm felt numb, but she was pleasantly surprised. The Battle Qi had gathered at a single point on the sword, and after going through the accumulation of the Turning Cloud Gesture, its power was far beyond the blow she had given Xiao Tianfan during their previous battle.
If she used the Qi of True Essence, coupled with the Turning Cloud Gesture, just how strong would it be? Ling Chuxi could not resist imagining the possibility, but sadly, she was still at the realm of Great Fulfilment so she could not try it out.
With a sword in her hand, Ling Chuxi’s confidence increased, and she waved it to attack again.
