C271 Dusk Forest Trials
"Don't say that I didn't warn you. You can only move within a thousand miles radius. Otherwise, once you are attacked by a high-level Demonic Beast, we won't interfere. Lord Beast Emperor won't interfere either. Alright. Let's set off now. The time starts. We will count the numbers here in an hour. Those who are late will be considered to have given up."
Wang Zheng picked up a wild boar's leg and started munching on it. He vaguely gave the order to set off.
"Whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz, whiz..."
Some of the experienced Cultivators flew into the forest. Only Lee Shaoyu was left. There were a few Cultivators who were still in a daze. They only rushed into the forest after they realized what was going on.
After Lee Shaoyu entered the Dusk Forest, he separated from the few Lee Shaoyus. Because only the Demonic Beast Crystal Cores that corresponded to his cultivation realm could be counted, all the Spirit Gathering Stage Spirit Gathering Stages could be considered his competitors. Furthermore, Wang Zheng had mentioned the rules just now. He was simply encouraging Cultivators of the same cultivation realm to kill each other. As expected of the style of the Land of Evil.
Furthermore, other than prohibiting Beast King Citys from fighting in the Beast King City, there were no restrictions outside the city at all. It could be said that it was chaotic to the extreme. In this place, everything could only be said with one's own strength. Any background was useless. Even if the guards of City Lord's Mansion were killed, the city lord would not care about it. The only iron rule was that That is - not to attack someone who is a realm lower than you!
"This place, I like it! Hahaha..."
Lee Shaoyu let out a loud laugh. Then, he suddenly accelerated and shot forward like a bolt of lightning. Now, he had already traveled five hundred miles into the depths of the Setting Sun Forest, and Spirit Gathering Stage Demonic Beasts had already begun to appear. Lee Shaoyu had already discovered his first target, a Spirit Gathering Intermediate Rank Scarlet Flame Wolf.
"Awoo!"
The Scarlet Flame Wolf had clearly also discovered that humans had invaded its territory. It opened its mouth and spat out a large scarlet fireball towards Lee Shaoyu. With a crackling sound, there was a faint burnt smell in the air.
"Die!"
How could such a straight line attack hit Lee Shaoyu? Lee Shaoyu, who had grown up in the Great Wilderness, was like a fish in water in this forest. He dodged the Scarlet Fire Wolf's fireball in a flash. At the same time, he pulled out the long sword on his back and tapped lightly on the trunk of a big tree. Lightning flashed under his feet, and he brushed past the Scarlet Fire Wolf.
"Finish your work."
Lee Shaoyu sheathed his sword with his back facing the Red Flame Wolf. The Red Flame Wolf lay straight on the ground. A line of blood appeared on its neck.
"This wolf meat is also a great nourishment. I have to put it away," Lee Shaoyu said.
Lee Shaoyu took out a dagger and cut the Scarlet Fire Wolf with ease. He only needed the Demonic Beast crystal core in City Lord's Mansion, but the remaining materials could be exchanged for money. Moreover, the meat of the Scarlet Fire Wolf could be eaten. Lee Shaoyu would not waste it at all.
After cutting the Scarlet Fire Wolf, Lee Shaoyu rushed into the distance. Normally, every Spirit Gathering Stage Demonic Beast would have their own territory, so there wouldn't be any more Spirit Gathering Stage Demonic Beasts in this area. Half an hour later, Lee Shaoyu had killed more than a dozen Spirit Gathering Stage Demonic Beasts, and he had also obtained more than a dozen Demonic Beast crystal cores. Forget about the time, even if there weren't many cars, it was time to go back. After all, if he was late, he would be considered to have given up.
Lee Shaoyu identified the direction and then chose another area to go back. This way, he could harvest a few more Demonic Beast crystal cores during the journey back, maximizing his harvest.
"Puhwark!"
Lee Shaoyu encountered another Early Spirit Gathering Stage Demonic Beast near the outer perimeter. He killed the Demonic Beast in no time. There were only 20 minutes left before the gathering time. Lee Shaoyu estimated that the number of Lee Shaoyus he hunted could be ranked in the top three no matter what, so he prepared to speed up his return.
"Swoosh!"
Just as Lee Shaoyu was about to stand up after splitting the medicinal Demonic Beast, a sound of tearing through the air suddenly came from behind him. Lee Shaoyu instinctively sensed a trace of danger and shot to the side.
"Bang!"
A burly man grabbed a huge black hammer and smashed it on the spot where Lee Shaoyu was just standing. The corpse of the Demonic Beast was smashed into a pile of minced meat. If Lee Shaoyu did not dodge in time, he was afraid that the hammer would have landed on his body.
"Chi!"
But before Lee Shaoyu could question him, another blade light came from the side of his body and slashed at Lee Shaoyu's neck. Clearly, there was more than one attacker.
"Courting death!"
Lee Shaoyu was furious. He quickly pulled out the long sword from his back and pointed it at a skinny blue clothed man who came from behind him. The blue clothed man was sent flying by the long sword in Lee Shaoyu's hand.
"Why did you attack me?"
Lee Shaoyu landed on the ground and looked at the man in blue. The two men who attacked him were precisely one of the Lee Shaoyus that participated in the trial with him.
"We brothers have already participated in several trials, but we never succeeded each time, so we want to borrow brother's Demonic Beast Crystal Core to use."
The burly man carried the heavy hammer on his shoulder and said to Lee Shaoyu with a cold smile.
"If you know what's good for you, then obediently hand over the crystal core. We brothers can still spare your life, otherwise we will end up like them."
At this time, another middle-aged man in grey robe walked out from behind Lee Shaoyu. He threw two heads in front of Lee Shaoyu. They were the two rookies who had come to participate in the trial with Lee Shaoyu today.
"Humph, three pieces of trash! You only know how to pick on us rookies!"
Lee Shaoyu looked coldly at the three of them and said coldly.
The three of them were still at the Spirit Gathering Stage realm at their age. Clearly, they didn't have much background in the outside world, and they probably hadn't practiced any profound cultivation techniques. Lee Shaoyu didn't treat them as a threat at all.
"Good kid, you have guts. I'm starting to admire you. However, in Dongji Stage, people like you won't be able to live for long because your previous background is useless here. It's better to put away that young master look of yours."
The grey-robed middle-aged man walked slowly towards Lee Shaoyu. He was the one with the highest cultivation base among the three of them. His cultivation base was at the late Spirit Gathering Stage realm while the other two were at the mid Spirit Gathering Stage realm.
Three versus one. Moreover, his opponent was only an early Spirit Gathering Stage brat. The grey-robed man was certain that he would defeat Lee Shaoyu. In the gray-robed man's opinion, Lee Shaoyu must be a disciple of some major power. To have such a cultivation base at such a young age, it was only because of the sect's glory.
"Then let's end the battle quickly. I still have to hurry, or else the time will pass."
Lee Shaoyu didn't say anything else, because this was the rule of the Land of Evil. A stranger could swing his blade at you without any reason. Moreover, there was a direct conflict of interest between the two parties.
"Don't worry, you can rest forever in the future. You don't have to live so hard in this world anymore."
The gray-robed man sneered. His body turned into a phantom as he attacked Lee Shaoyu.
"Earthshaking Hammer!"
However, the gray-robed man was obviously only feigning his attack in order to distract Lee Shaoyu. The real attacker was the burly man. He dragged the black hammer down from the sky and ruthlessly smashed it at Lee Shaoyu, who was on the ground.
Lee Shaoyu instantly saw through the battle tactic between the two of them. Therefore, he did not retreat. Instead, he rushed towards the grey-robed man and forced him to fight with him. If the burly man who used the hammer dared to attack him, he would smash the grey-robed man to a pulp.
Originally, Lee Shaoyu's battle method was very correct. However, he underestimated the brutality of these people, which caused him to lose the battle instantly.
The burly man who fell from the void did not stop at all because of the gray-robed man. Instead, he moved even faster than before. He smashed down with a sharp whistling sound.
The burly man did not care about the life and death of the gray-robed man. In his eyes, there was only the Demonic Beast Crystal Core in Lee Shaoyu and Lee Shaoyu's hands!
"Nine Sword Chopping!"
At this time, it was already too late for Lee Shaoyu to dodge. He could only turn around and swing out nine sword beams towards the heavy hammer in the void. The gray-robed man seized the opportunity to escape from the battle.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."
Several sword lights struck the heavy hammer and exploded one after another. However, the burly man also let out a furious roar. A dense black light burst out from the black heavy hammer and increased the force of the Force!
Flowing Star Steps!
Although the Nine Sword Chopping's power could not stop the falling momentum of the heavy hammer, it also forced the heavy hammer to pause for a moment in the air. Lee Shaoyu seized the opportunity to use Meteor Steps and flew out.
"Rumble..."
As soon as Lee Shaoyu left, the black hammer smashed into the ground. The entire ground shook slightly under this attack. Dozens of trees in a radius of dozens of feet were destroyed by the terrifying impact, turning into wood splinters that filled the sky.
* Ka...... *
Before Lee Shaoyu could recover from his shock, a crack suddenly appeared on the ground under his feet. A blade light burst out from the ground, trying to cut him in half from the middle.
Lee Shaoyu's right leg suddenly kicked on the ground. His body shot up to the sky. At the same time, he swung his sword at the ground, sending out a sword light!
"Chi!"
A piercing sound came from behind Lee Shaoyu. Lee Shaoyu's body quickly rolled to the side. A shiny long sword brushed past his shoulder, bringing with it a string of blood.
Lee Shaoyu's heart sank. He had underestimated his opponent too much. Who would be weak to be able to fight in this evil land for so many years? Moreover, he did not fully understand their brutality. His thoughts had not completely changed.
The attacks between the three seemed to be fighting on their own, but their cooperation was very precise. They grasped the timing very accurately.
It was said that their cooperation was ingenious, but they did not have the style of a group. They did not care about the lives of others at all, and Lee Shaoyu could not figure it out.
"You can die in peace."
A cold voice suddenly sounded behind Lee Shaoyu. At the same time, a blade and Light Chopping flew towards Lee Shaoyu's neck. Lee Shaoyu was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
