CHAPTER 2069: CHAPTER 760: SHIFTING OFFENSE AND DEFENSE, THE GIANT BEAST CHARGES (PART 2)

Even Liuyuan, who had trained for many years in the North Sea, was nothing more than a defeated general under the young master’s command back then!

The only thing worth considering is probably activating the Purple Sun Gourd later!

This True Device was specifically crafted by the Shi Family for this Cave Heaven exploration, offering not only strong defense but also suppressing and absorbing power specifically targeting Illusion Beasts.

However, Qi Xiongcheng himself has not practiced with it for long, so he needs to be extremely careful when activating it.

Sigh...

A faint sound of exhaling came from Shi Ju beside him.

The airflow carried a scorching sensation.

Qi Xiongcheng watched the figure of Shi Ju, whose robe billowed as he slowly unfolded the White Fan, already prepared for action.

Just as Shi Ju was about to make a move, he suddenly asked:

"Have you found any trace of that Huang Independent Cultivator I asked you to inquire about?"

Qi Xiongcheng showed a hesitant expression.

This hesitation visibly displeased Shi Ju.

"Speak!"

Qi Xiongcheng dared not delay and promptly replied, "Indeed, I learned from Yu Xu about this person. He is still within the Cave Heaven."

"As long as he is still around!" Shi Ju pursed his lips, his eyes gleaming with greed.

Qi Xiongcheng kindly reminded, "Young Master, this person is extremely troublesome. Not only does he have considerable expertise in the Divine Soul path, but according to Yu Xu, he is also highly skilled in Techniques and Body Techniques. I think we should avoid provoking him..."

"Hmm?"

Qi Xiongcheng immediately fell silent, not daring to say more.

Shi Ju sneered, "I am determined to provoke him! That Tianji Pill crafted by the Alchemy Saint before he left must contain an immense Spirit Mechanism from countless Illusion Cores. If I obtain it, it will undoubtedly enhance my comprehension of the Fire Origin and possibly even offer a chance to grasp other more formidable Law’s True Intents!"

The Origin Power is merely the most basic among the Law’s True Intents, and it is the easiest for cultivators to comprehend.

Beyond this foundation, there are other, more formidable Law’s True Intents.

After all, the Laws and Great Dao may seem singular, but under the same law, there can be various transformations.

Shi Ju either doesn’t comprehend Law’s True Intent during the Nascent Soul Stage, or he does so only with a superior one!

"You step aside and watch how I force out that Evil Beast from the abyss!"

Unbeknownst to them, the White Jade Fan had turned crimson, the fan bones seemingly glowing like heated Glaze, with wisps of faint Flames appearing and disappearing on its surface.

Shi Ju held the Fire Fan, ready to strike.

At that moment!

"Shriek!"

A sharp bird cry pierced their eardrums.

In the next instant, a majestic and awe-inspiring eagle shot upward like a flying bolt.

Behind it, a long tail of cloud and mist trailed.

As it soared out, it didn’t spare even a glance at the two on the mountain peak, flying westward unhesitatingly.

Swish!

The Fire Fan closed immediately, Shi Ju looked at the retreating figure with alarm, his expression revealing three parts fear, such terrifying might from the Illusion Beast! If he had recklessly attacked earlier, he might have fallen victim to it...

"The young master’s cultivation seems to have further progressed, controlling deadly moves at will..."

Before the flattery could finish, Shi Ju angrily interrupted:

"Stop this nonsense, pursue it!"

Qi Xiongcheng gave a wry smile and followed behind, although his eyes held a trace of helplessness.

For such a formidable Illusion Beast to suddenly leave its lair, there must be something rather dangerous.

With his cautious nature honed over years of wandering outside, he totally didn’t want to meddle.

But who could say when one is a servant of the Shi Family?

Even though he might appear illustrious to outsiders, possessing the honor of a True Master, he still felt beneath in stature in front of the Shi Family members.

"Well then, I’ll protect him as much as I can!"

...

If someone had a complete map, they would find that the very center of the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven is astonishingly that Triple Rainbow Falls!

It’s uncertain how the Gu Family discovered that core location.

But in any case, the Triple Rainbow Falls stand at the center, covering all directions.

Currently, from the southeast, northwest, in every direction, for tens of thousands to even hundreds of thousands of miles, dust rolls and clouds churn.

Illusion Beasts of varying strength surge forth from their lairs, heading for the Triple Rainbow Falls.

Wherever they pass, countless trees collapse, and even massive perilous mountains blocking their path are smashed and penetrated by these unreasonable, instinct-driven giant beasts.

Throughout all this, Gu Daosu, the one concerned with it, remains oblivious.

His protector, Lady Xu, finally discovers something amiss.

Boom!

A distance of ten miles from the waterfall.

With a black long skirt, an icy and alluring beauty delivered a sleeve strike, repelling a scorpion as large as a hundred zhang.

The beast rolled across the ground continuously, showing just how powerful Lady Xu’s strike was.

Lady Xu appeared unperturbed, merely considering it to be an Illusion Beast attracted by her nephew Gu Daosu’s Sudden Enlightenment.

In recent two or three years, such incidents happen often, not unusual.

Extermination might require some effort, but repelling them is no challenge.

These Illusion Beasts are incredibly timid and will flee when things seem amiss.

But when the scorpion stabilized itself, it didn’t retreat but continued to glare at Lady Xu.

"So stubborn?"

Lady Xu frowned.

In the next moment, her expression subtly changed.

Her Divine Consciousness perceived another Illusion Beast charging from the southeast, aimed straight at Triple Rainbow Falls.

She drew a deep breath, releasing an overwhelming killing intent, and uttered a low command toward the scorpion Illusion Beast.

"Begone!"

After unleashing her deterrent, she hesitated no more, hastily returned to defend Triple Rainbow Falls.

After she left, the scorpion Illusion Beast showed hesitation.

The overpowering killing intent made it vaguely understand it was entirely unmatched against this person.
