In terms of danger level, the Hengduan Mountains are almost the same as the mountains behind the Fengjian Sect.
It is said that even people from the Tiandao Sect will occasionally come to the Hengduan Mountains to hunt. However, the targets of their hunting will naturally not be ordinary beasts, but the monsters inside the mountains. The strength of the monsters is... It is equivalent to the warrior god refining realm, and it is simply not something Lu Xuan can deal with now.
But this time, Lu Xuan wanted to take a risk, because the inheritance of the Zhang family's ancestors was located inside the mountain range. Although not at the innermost part, it was still in the area where ninth- and tenth-order beasts and even monsters appeared.
It is precisely because of this that the Zhang family has not come to obtain the inheritance for a long time. After all, Zhang Dongshuang's father, the strongest person in the Zhang family, is only at the ninth level of body refining. If he came to obtain the inheritance rashly and encountered a tenth-level beast, it would be very dangerous. The entire army might be wiped out, which would be more of a loss than a gain.
As the two of them walked forward, more than twenty beasts died in Lu Xuan's hands, ranging from the lowest level fourth-level beasts to the highest level eight-level beasts. Fortunately, the Star-Shattering Sword was a treasure-level weapon. , after so many fierce battles, there is still no trace of wear and tear.
Moreover, the high-level beasts basically walked alone and would not attack in groups, which allowed Lu Xuan to advance smoothly.
"Ahead is the area for the ninth-level beasts, so follow me closely." Lu Xuan couldn't help but turn around and warned again.
Zhang Dongshuang nodded vigorously. The battles she experienced along the way had already made her understand the danger of this trip. Although Lu Xuan killed many eighth-level beasts and still had some spare time to take care of her, it seemed that It is also very laborious. The next step to deal with the ninth-level beast is probably Lu Xuan's ultimate limit. He will definitely not be able to spare any thought to take care of her.
"If we advance a little further, we should be almost there." Zhang Dongshuang said.
Her words finally brought a ray of good news to Lu Xuan. Perhaps because of the siege of Tian Dao Sect, the range of the monsters' activities was further inside. The Zhang family's inheritance position was not within the scope of the monsters' activities.
Surrounded by sword intent, Lu Xuan remained at his peak, and the two set off again.
The deeper you go into the mountains, the quieter you get. Apart from the occasional chirping of birds, it is rare to even hear a roar of an animal.
The footsteps of the two people stepped on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound, which added to the tension.
Fortunately, there seemed to be nothing unusual along the way. Although he kept moving forward, he never hit a ninth-level beast. Zhang Dongshuang kept scanning the surroundings, looking for the place of inheritance. This place was very close to the place of inheritance.
Soon, a huge rock appeared in front of the two of them. Lu Xuan glanced at it and was about to go around it and move on, but Zhang Dongshuang suddenly pulled him back.
Lu Xuan turned around and saw a hint of excitement in Zhang Dongshuang's eyes. His heart suddenly moved, could he have gone somewhere
"Young Master Lu, this is it!" Zhang Dongshuang's tone revealed a hint of uncontrollable excitement, but he was worried about attracting beasts, so he forcibly lowered his voice.
Lu Xuan took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, finally arriving.
"But... something seems wrong." After the excitement, Zhang Dongshuang said with some doubts.
"What's wrong?"
"Have you seen this rock? There is a narrow passage in the middle." Zhang Dongshuang pointed to the rock and said: "According to the oral instructions passed down by our ancestors, there should be a magic array covering it to avoid being discovered. It doesn't look like it at all. We can’t reach that narrow passage, but now the illusory formation has obviously been broken, so we can see it.”
Looking along Zhang Dongshuang's direction, Lu Xuan saw a narrow passage. It was not wide and could only accommodate two people walking side by side.
At that moment, he frowned slightly and said, "Has someone already discovered it and gone in?"
"I don't know, but it doesn't matter. Even if there are warriors entering, they can't reach the inheritance place. This narrow road is just a road leading to the inheritance place." Zhang Dongshuang is not very worried. The ancestors of the Zhang family established the inheritance place. When doing so, various situations were naturally taken into consideration.
Lu Xuan nodded, no longer thinking about it, and said, "Let's go in and take a look first."
At the moment, Lu Xuan was walking in front, with the horizontal sword blocking his chest, and Zhang Dongshuang followed closely behind. The two of them walked into the narrow passage one after the other.
After this narrow passage, it didn't seem to be a closed world, because Lu Xuan could see that there was still light inside. The narrow passage was not long. After walking for less than half a stick of incense, his vision suddenly opened up!
But when he saw the situation clearly, Lu Xuan's eyes widened instantly!
Because it’s not empty inside, there are still living things!
A huge tiger, with eyes as big as copper bells, was staring at Lu Xuan angrily. It was sleeping, and it didn't expect to be disturbed by two humans. How could it not be angry.
At this moment, Lu Xuan finally understood why the two of them had not encountered any ninth-level beasts along the way. This was because this was the territory of the beast in front of them, and naturally no other beasts came to invade the territory.
The phantom formation Zhang Dongshuang mentioned was missing, and the reason was obvious. It must have been that the tiger accidentally discovered the phantom formation, broke through it, and then regarded this place as its own habitat.
"Retreat!" Lu Xuan shouted, and at the same time, the Star-Shattering Sword in his hand instantly switched to the Black Iron Sword. He retreated instead of advancing, and rushed directly towards the tiger.
Lu Xuan had seen the introduction of this fierce tiger from the Fengjian Sect's classics. It was called the Winged Tiger, so named because of the two fleshy wings growing on its back.
It's just that although it is called a winged tiger and has a pair of fleshy wings, it is still unable to fly. However, because of the existence of these pair of fleshy wings, it can greatly increase its speed.
Warriors often use the word "like a tiger with wings" to describe a person's power. This winged tiger at this moment is undoubtedly such an existence. With the powerful attack power of the tiger itself, coupled with its excellent speed, it is definitely a difficult guy!
Hearing Lu Xuan's loud reminder and taking a sudden glance at the huge size of the winged tiger, Zhang Dongshuang was immediately horrified and did not dare to stay longer at all, so he quickly retreated.
She knew her own strength and was vulnerable to a ninth-level beast. Staying aside would only distract Lu Xuan. She had to step back and leave the battle to Lu Xuan.
When Zhang Dongshuang retreated, Lu Xuan quickly fought with the winged tiger.
This winged tiger is definitely the most powerful opponent Lu Xuan has encountered so far. Because of its physical advantage, the strength of the ninth-level beast is comparable to the tenth level of body refining of a warrior. In addition, the winged tiger's The strength is at the forefront among the ninth-level beasts, even more so.
If he encountered a winged tiger outside, Lu Xuan would not necessarily fight to the death with it, but would choose an opportunity to escape. But that was not possible now, because the cave occupied by the winged tiger was the place leading to the place of inheritance. Unless he would It is absolutely impossible to destroy it, otherwise it will be impossible to move it.
The Black Iron Sword slashed hard at the winged tiger, but the fleshy wings on its back shook, and its body instantly moved sideways, easily dodging Lu Xuan's blow.
Seeing that this human being not only disturbed his sleep, but also dared to attack him, the winged tiger became even more angry. After dodging the blow, before Lu Xuan landed, his body suddenly jumped up, with huge tiger claws, Carrying a violent hurricane, it shot towards Lu Xuan, and was about to kill Lu Xuan with one blow.
But how could Lu Xuan be so easy to deal with? He missed a single blow and was already prepared for a counterattack. Feeling the whistling wind coming from behind, he turned around forcefully in the air. The strength of the Black Iron Sword continued unabated. Cut it directly towards the winged tiger.
In an instant, the Black Iron Sword and the Winged Tiger's claws collided together, and two powerful forces burst out at the same time. The bodies of Lu Xuan and the Winged Tiger were shaken at the same time, and they retreated instantly.
However, the Winged Tiger landed lightly, but Lu Xuan took three steps back in succession before he was able to remove the force of the impact. Obviously, with strength, Lu Xuan was no match for the Winged Tiger. The beast was already good at strength. What's more, the winged tiger is a ninth-level beast. In terms of realm alone, it is three levels higher than Lu Xuan. With such a huge gap in realm, Lu Xuan is already proud of being able to hit him without losing.
The attack only paused for a moment, and then it launched again. This time, it was the winged tiger that launched the attack. It squatted slightly, and at the same time its wings trembled. After accumulating strength, it suddenly rushed forward, charging towards the top with the momentum of a mountain. Lu Xuan attacks.
Lu Xuan, on the other hand, stood still and immediately took up his stance. His energy sank from his dantian, and his Yuan Li was operating at full strength. He struck the winged tiger in the head with his sword again. The power of this sword was far superior to that of his most powerful sword before. One blow, one sword to cut off the current.
After winning the last round of strength competition, how could the winged tiger be afraid of Lu Xuan? He did not dodge or dodge at all, and continued to attack, one man and one beast collided again!
This time, the force exerted by Lu Xuan was beyond the expectations of the Winged Tiger. With the power of Duanliu's sword, the Winged Tiger that rushed towards him was actually directly knocked away by Lu Xuan. After tumbling in the air, Then he landed, and when he landed, he was no longer as light as before, and was slightly weak.
Although he repelled the winged tiger, Lu Xuan's hands were numb and he felt uncomfortable. He took a deep breath and the Black Iron Sword disappeared immediately, and what appeared in his hand turned into the Star-Shattering Sword again.
Although the Xuantie Sword was easy to use, it was only when facing an opponent whose strength was inferior to his own. And with the power of the Duanliu Sword just now, he could compete with the Winged Tiger. Lu Xuan knew that it was almost impossible for him to overpower it in terms of strength. If he wanted to win, he still had to rely on his fast sword.
With the Broken Star Sword in hand, Lu Xuan's sword intent burst out again, adding two points of sharpness to the Broken Star Sword. It moved with thunder and lightning, and suddenly struck in front of the winged tiger like lightning, and the long sword pierced straight in!
There was a trace of extremely anthropomorphic disdain in the eyes of the winged tiger. With a pair of wings, how could it be afraid of a speed competition
