Chapter 260: Clever Layout

to those of the demon race. However, these methods weren't the mainstream practices of major sects. Replicating a copy on jade slips for Lu Xiaoteng wasn't a big deal." 。Then, many thanks to Wen Dao...Su Qing and Luo Qian each sent a voice transmission to Lu Xiaoteng, indicating they understood.

Lu Xia Tian let out a sigh of relief. People die for wealth, birds die for food, everyone understands this truth. But when faced with great profit, most people would lose their minds. If Su Qing and Luo Qian couldn't see through this, the process wouldn't be smooth.

While Cheng Tao was desperately trying to restrain the cat-like creature, he was also paying attention to Su Qing and Luo Qian's movements. When Luo Qian encountered danger, he even felt a tinge of schadenfreude. However, unexpectedly, a young man with a grim face appeared halfway through. This young man didn't seem particularly powerful, only at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. His spiked shield was decent, but with his strength, being able to block the cat-like creature at a crucial moment was surprising. Seeing the sudden joy on Su Qing and Luo Qian's faces, Cheng Tao immediately became more vigilant. Under normal circumstances, everyone present would be troubled by the formidable power of the cat-like creature. How could they have such expressions Although fleeting, Cheng Tao's sharp eyes captured it precisely.

Could it be that these few people have already made plans and are against each other Cheng Tao's mind couldn't turn around for a moment, but he secretly became thoughtful. While using the Bi Jiao Zhu to entangle Qu Mao, he inadvertently moved slowly towards the direction of Su Qing and Luo Qian. It looked like he was fighting with Qu Mao, and besides, there was chaos all around with dozens of people fighting, so no one would suspect anything.

Lu Xia Tian kept moving, trying to get to the location of the golden fruit tree quietly. Though the three of them had disguised themselves well, there were many people present who were used to fighting for survival on the edge of death, making them shrewd and observant. Lu Xia Tian didn't expect to fool everyone, but his plan was to strike suddenly, grab the golden fruit, and leave. Even if these people reacted in time, it would be too late. Naturally, he had a backup plan as well.

Due to the chaos of the battle, Qu Mao may not have noticed this shift in circumstances. After all, as a monster beast, its intelligence had not yet reached the point of complete enlightenment, and it was still somewhat inferior to the cunning human race.

The cat, called Qu Mao, darted forward with lightning speed. Lu Xiaotian raised his shield just in time, blocking the sharp claws. A dull thud echoed as the claws struck the shield, leaving several fresh scratches on its surface. However, Qu Mao remained unharmed. It was clear that this cat's claws possessed extraordinary power.

Under Qicat's attack, Lu Xiaoteng's body seemed to be unable to withstand the force of Qicat's power and staggered back.

The qat cat saw that this annoying fellow had dodged several of its attacks and was finally starting to feel the pressure. Instantly, it shook itself up, its spirits renewed, and pounced forward again.

In the eyes of other cultivators, at least that's how it seemed. Lu Xiaitian's retreat was very reasonable. It wasn't a matter of whether Lu Xiaitian had the strength to fight against Qiu Mao head-on; even if he did, in their place, they would also choose to retreat at an appropriate time. After all, confronting demonic beasts is not a one-person affair. With so many people present, whoever runs out of mana first is likely to die soon.

Just as everyone thought Lu Xiaoteng's retreat was reasonable, Qu Mao was also preparing to take advantage of the situation and eliminate this troublesome fellow whose attacks were not high but whose defense was very difficult for it. Just as Qu Mao quickly surged forward and leaped up, a dozen water balls the size of sea bowls suddenly struck Qu Mao from several different directions at the same time.

It was actually water ball magic. What use could such a low-level spell possibly have It couldn't even damage his magical artifact. The disdain in Qu Mao's eyes deepened. As for the other cultivators, whether near or far, if the situation wasn't so inappropriate, someone would have surely burst into laughter. Even a Dan Yuan magic artifact couldn't seriously injure Qu Mao, and yet he was using this rudimentary water ball technique. Although the casting process was quick, almost instantaneous, what use could a water ball do against him

"Could it be that he was driven to desperation by the continuous attacks from Qiu Mao, and his mind went haywire in a cornered situation" Many people had this thought flashing through their minds.

As for the sneers on some people's faces, Lu Xiaoteng simply pretended not to see them. In order to hit Qu Mao with his Water Sphere Technique, he deliberately used this technique, sealing off from several directions, with almost no blind spots. Even if Qu Mao was fast, he would hit one or two. He just didn't expect that Qu Mao would be too disdainful of this Water Sphere Technique, not defending at all, and directly crashed into it. Of course, the Water Sphere Technique hitting Qu Mao's body did not cause any harm.

“Now, Thunderstrike Talisman!” Lu Xiaoteng retreated violently, his speed several times faster than before. As a cultivator of the body, he originally had amazing explosive power. Under careful planning, his speed increased by a few points. Looking at the stunned cultivators, Lu Xiaoteng’s eyes were filled with a trace of mockery. When the truth was revealed, these people would understand that they were the ones being played.”

"He's bluffing!" Seeing Lu Xiaotian retreat and his strength clearly surpassing his previous performance, Cheng Tao's heart skipped a beat. He stomped on the ground, his figure surging forward quickly. The Bi Jiaozhu he used had a high degree of autonomy. Seeing Su Qing and Luo Qian, two powerful cultivators, flanking Lu Xiaotian, the black-faced cultivator, on either side, he felt that charging head-on wouldn't work. So, taking advantage of the chaotic crowd, he veered off in another direction.

"Spirit Rain Technique! Now is the time, Thunder Rune!" Seeing the crowd's confusion,

Lu Xia Tian decided to play bigger. If the range he covered wasn't wide enough, it probably wouldn't be able to stop so many people.

Lu Xia tian had reminded them in advance, so at this time, Su Qing and Luo Qian were already well-prepared. They just needed to display the lightning strike talisman; they didn't need to wait like when casting a spell.

With a crack, a gigantic sphere of lightning, as thick as two people hugging, burst out, striking the accumulated water. Assisted by the Spirit Rain Technique, the lightning spread at an almost imperceptible speed, instantly encompassing all the rainwater and water-connected areas. The surroundings flickered with arcs of electricity. Even the bluish-gray vines on the ground turned black in parts, emitting a burnt smell. As for the cat that had been struck by the rainwater earlier, its fur was surrounded by a flickering electric light. Its skin, which had shone like a mirror, now trembled slightly, and its four legs twitched incessantly. However, these cats were indeed quite resilient. Despite being attacked by several Thunder Mark talismans, they remained standing. Their movement speed was noticeably slowed, their steps as slow as a turtle's.

Some unlucky cultivators were caught in the spiritual rain. Although Su Qing and Luo Qian's main targets were Qu Mao, several other cultivators suffered collateral damage. Only a small portion of the electric arcs struck these individuals, but their bodies weren't as tough as Qu Mao's. They immediately turned black and screamed in agony.

“Damn it!” As everyone saw Su Qing, Luo Qian, and the grim-faced Lu Xiaoteng simultaneously flying to condense the Golden Fruit, they realized most of them were separated by the electric arcs from the Spirit Rain. Even Qu Mao was struck this time. These people didn't know what the other side planned until now, but it was already too late to react.
