Chapter 5342
Under the azure sky, two streaks of light cut through the clouds and landed steadily in a dense ancient forest.
Kai retracted the golden light around him, and his fingertips still felt the tingling sensation of the spatial force when he crossed Duanyun Ridge. Hu Mazi couldn’t wait to take a deep breath of air, his face full of amazement.
“Wow, this sixth-level immortal energy is even richer than the fifth-level spiritual spring!”
Hu Mazi smacked his lips, his spiritual energy circulating through his body. He felt his meridians become more relaxed. “I’ve been stuck in the ninth level of the Earthly Immortal Realm for so long. Maybe if I stay here for a few months, I can reach the threshold of the Human Immortal Realm!”
Kai didn’t respond, his eyes had already swept around.
This ancient forest was completely different from the Black Wind Mountains of the Fifth Heaven. The trees were so thick that they required more than ten people to hug them. The trunks were covered with pale golden moss, emitting faint spiritual energy fluctuations.
Fist-sized crystals can be seen everywhere on the ground, reflecting the sunlight and shining brightly;
The roar of the monster coming from afar was so powerful that it was enough to scare even the early stage cultivators of the fifth level of the Earth Immortal Realm.
“Be careful,”
Kai held the Dragon Slaying Sword at his waist. The sword hummed faintly in its sheath, as if giving a warning. “The demon beasts of the Sixth Heaven are not only more powerful, but they may also possess some strange abilities nurtured by immortal energy.”
Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud “crack” sound suddenly coming from the dense forest on the left, followed by a gust of wind, and the fallen leaves on the ground were blown all over the sky.
A huge monster rushed out from behind the tree, its whole body covered with blue-black scales. Its head was like that of a giant crocodile, but with three scarlet eyes. There was a pair of broken flesh wings on its back. Saliva dripped from its sharp fangs, and when it fell on the ground, it instantly corroded small pits.
“It’s the three-eyed rot-scale beast!”
Hu Mazi’s expression changed slightly as he pulled out two talismans from his storage bag. “I’ve seen records in ancient books from the Fifth Heaven that this beast’s scales can withstand attacks from a seventh-grade Earthly Immortal. Its saliva is highly poisonous, and the most troublesome thing is that its third eye can spit out a foul smell that will corrode the soul if it touches it!”
The three-eyed rot-scale beast obviously regarded the two men as prey. Its third eye suddenly lit up red, and a dark green rotten aura shot towards Kai like a sharp arrow.
Kai moved his feet slightly and performed the Fire Control Step. His body turned into a shadow to avoid the foul air. The foul air fell on the ancient tree behind him, and the trunk turned black and rotten in an instant. In just a few breaths, it turned into a pool of black water.
“Just in time!”
Hu Mazi laughed loudly and threw the talisman in his hand, “Flame Talisman!” Two flames exploded in the air and turned into two fire snakes that coiled around the three-eyed rotten-scale beast.
The fire snake touched the scales, making a “sizzling” sound, but failed to break through the defense and only left two scorch marks.
The three-eyed rot-scale beast felt pain, roared angrily, and opened its huge mouth to bite Hu Mazi.
Hu Mazi didn’t dare to take it head-on, and quickly cast a wind-moving talisman, floating several feet backward. At the same time, he cast a binding talisman with his backhand. The yellow runes intertwined into a large net in the air, entangling the limbs of the three-eyed rotten-scale beast.
“Kai, take action!”
Hu Mazi shouted.
A golden light flashed in Kai’s eyes, and the power of the dragon in his body circulated wildly. The Dragon Slaying Sword was unsheathed, and a golden sword energy with a blazing flame slashed out.
“Dragon Flame Slash!”
The sword energy fell on the back of the three-eyed rotten-scale beast, and the scales shattered instantly. The flames spread and burned its skin and flesh.
“roar–!”
The three-eyed rot-scaled beast let out a shrill scream and struggled to break free from the binding talisman, but Hu Mazi had already added several talismans, and the runes became tighter and tighter, binding it firmly in place.
The golden flames continued to devour its vitality, its breath became weaker and weaker, and finally it collapsed to the ground, turning into a pile of charred corpses.
Kai walked forward slowly, and the flame on the Dragon Slaying Sword gradually went out.
