Chapter 1278: Chapter 779: Seizing the Life Core and Understanding Minor Karma
"It really is the mountain forest where we secluded ourselves back then!"
Little Li confirmed as soon as he heard the roar.
Because he remembered that roar, it was the roar of the mutant beast exclusive to Gale Plain, the Wind Beast.
"Correct, this is outside Gale Plain, the mountain forest where we secluded ourselves back then," Lu Qing nodded.
It was precisely because he had spent some time here that Lu Qing remembered the space coordinates and smoothly teleported in.
"Brother, have you been here before?" Little Yan asked.
"Yes, just right, let’s go and see our old friend,"
Lu Qing waved his hand, enveloping everyone within a force of spatial power and disappearing from the spot.
In the next moment, when they reappeared, they were surrounded by raging winds and yellow sand.
Not far away, there was a giant figure waving its arms, seemingly attacking something.
With a mere movement of Lu Qing’s mind, the surrounding violent wind and sand within a radius of one zhang became completely still.
Moreover, their presence integrated entirely into the surroundings, and even the giant figure did not notice their arrival.
"Ah Qing, it’s that Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast we encountered back then!"
Upon seeing that giant figure, Little Li immediately said.
Turned out, the roar heard earlier was indeed from that Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast which had pursued them when they passed through Gale Plain before.
"It’s that guy, so that’s why I called it an old friend," Lu Qing nodded slightly.
And he also noticed that this Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, which he once fought, had made progress in its cultivation.
Now the sand and stone forming its body had condensed unusually solid, and its arm movements were quite methodical.
Clearly having truly stepped into the Primordial Spirit Realm, its spiritual wisdom having significantly grown.
His gaze fell on the other side.
Across from the Wind Beast, seven or eight Human Clan cultivators were forming an array, jointly activating a magical treasure to form a defense shield, struggling to resist the Wind Beast’s attack.
However, judging by the shield shaking continuously under the Wind Beast’s attack, it was obvious that they wouldn’t hold out for long.
"Senior Brother, this Wind Beast has completely stepped into the Primordial Spirit Realm, and now its spiritual wisdom has risen greatly, perfectly controlling the wind laws of Gale Plain. What should we do?"
Within the shield, a female Golden Core Post Realm cultivator looked anxiously at the faltering magical treasure shield.
She hadn’t expected the wind beast of Gale Plain to have truly stepped into the Primordial Spirit Realm, completely mastering Gale Plain.
Rather than the rumored state of merely half-step Primordial Spirit Realm with low spiritual wisdom.
She and her Senior Brothers had acted too hastily by coming here to hunt this Wind Beast.
If not for the Middle Grade Spiritual Device, Mystic Light Shield, bestowed by their master, they probably would have perished here.
But as it seems now, even Mystic Light Shield can only hold for a while longer. At this rate, it will eventually be destroyed.
"Do not panic, hold on a little longer. I’m preparing to unleash the Heaven-shocking Stab, it won’t take more than twenty breaths of time, you must endure!"
A young man in white at the forefront of the array said through gritted teeth.
"Heaven-shocking Stab! Senior Brother, you mustn’t!" another young man exclaimed, "Once you unleash it, all your mana will be exhausted, and you won’t be able to move!"
The other few’s faces also changed dramatically, fully aware of what exhausting mana would mean in Gale Plain.
"There’s no alternative. This Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast’s strength is beyond our expectations. Aside from the Heaven-shocking Stab, there’s no other way to harm it," the young man in white said urgently.
"Remember, once I blast its body with Heaven-shocking Stab, you must flee immediately. Without destroying the Wind Beast’s Life Core, it won’t truly perish, even if its body is shattered, it will recover within at most ten breaths.
Regardless of whether I destroy the Wind Beast’s Life Core or not, you need to use this brief moment to escape as far as possible, and quickly get out of Gale Plain!"
"But what about you, Senior Brother?" the woman asked.
"Don’t worry about me, this is the only solution. Otherwise, we will all die here!" the young man in white shouted.
Meanwhile, a gold spear formed before him, emitting an astonishing aura.
Sensing the aura from the gold spear, the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast seemed to notice the threat, becoming more fierce in its attack.
The huge fists formed from sand and stone, like towering peaks, repeatedly punched towards the shield, aiming to crush the small insects completely.
Yet the Mystic Light Shield proved its worth as a defensive Middle Grade Spiritual Device.
Even under such an attack, it persisted.
Though distorted and twisted from the shaking, under the life-risking persistence of those inside, it remained unbroken.
Time ticked away breath by breath, the gold spear in front of the young man in white growing brighter and brighter.
Further enraged, the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, under intense threat, disregarded everything and leaped high, double fists clasped together, hammering fiercely towards the shield below.
It intended to smash the group of crawlers completely before the completion of the gold spear!
"Now’s the moment!"
Yet, just as the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast jumped, the young man’s eyes suddenly widened, bursting with sharp brilliance.
Simultaneously, the gold spear in front of him transformed into a golden streak, shooting with unimaginable speed towards the location sensed — the Life Core.
"Success!"
The young man in white felt wild joy as he looked at the spot the golden light was aiming.
In his sense, the Wind Beast’s Life Core was unchanged, about to be hit.
But in the next instant, he saw the Wind Beast’s eyes suddenly flash with a hint of cunning.
