Xu Guang's divine thought spread out, able to perceive things within over twenty miles.
Coupled with Ah Wei's terrifying perception akin to that of an elephant, together, they could sense all the innate experts within sixty miles.
He could clearly perceive Jiang Bai, including Master Fuqing beside Jiang Bai.
A warm current rose in his heart, while a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.
Are these really the only people sent to kill him?
Were the people behind them sending them to their deaths?
Or are they so cautious that they are staying more than a hundred miles away?
Xu Guang was not sure; he merely spoke softly to General Wei, "Ah Wei, I'll leave it to you."
Ah Wei was already famous; in that case, one elephant fighting seven innates shouldn't be a big deal.
A roar emerged from the forest suddenly.
Immediately, shadows entwined with the seven innate experts' figures charged madly towards Xu Guang's location in Lu Yuan County.
Beast Attraction.
A relatively precious but not so precious powder, its effect was to induce frenzy in mountain demon beasts. Of course, only those beasts with not much strength and low resistance to the powder could be stirred.
Who knows how much Beast Attraction they used? As countless demon beasts swarmed like a black torrent, sweeping through the plains, farmlands, and hills in front of Lu Yuan County's gate.
Xu Guang squinted his eyes; he could not just watch these demon beasts ruin the farmland, even though Tang Cheng said it didn't matter, but he truly couldn't do so.
A sound like a dragon's roar abruptly came from the direction of Lu Yuan County.
Then, General Wei's figure was seen charging into the group of demon beasts with a violent momentum.
With an order from Tang Cheng, the already prepared Five Luo Sect disciples began to move.
Shen Muyu, Jiang Zi Yun, and Zhuang Yue set off together, their goal being simply to protect the Five Luo Sect disciples.
For the Five Luo Sect disciples, this was a rare trial.
It was also Xu Guang and the others returning the favor to Tang Cheng.
...
"Master Shan! Are these people prepared to keep charging?"
"Young Master said, today Xu Guang must die."
Master Shan, with horns on his head, showed a cruel smile, slowly clenching the scimitar in his hand.
"Then let's kill!"
Perhaps due to their beastly nature, these people were not as afraid of death as one would imagine.
...
Close combat ensued.
Demon beasts and Five Luo Sect disciples clashed with fervent excitement on every face.
The Sect Leader had said before departure, this battle would be overseen by Master Xu of Jiufeng Mountain.
If they performed well and caught the eye of a Zhenren, it would be a tremendous fortune.
For Lu Yuan County, which is not all that isolated, having someone like Tang Yuming, which made the entire county shine, naturally understood the significance of the words Jiufeng Mountain.
Moreover, Elephant Master Xu Guang, even within Jiufeng Mountain, was not unknown.
Zhuang Yue smirked with little interest in such a juvenile battle.
He was merely seeking rare and unusual demon beasts within the beast horde.
Perhaps there might be some unexpected gains.
...
A bird appeared in the sky, red-legged and white-beaked, oddly shaped, approximately equivalent to the power of a Ninth-Grade Martial Artist of the Human Race.
But its ability to reach such heights was unimaginable to ordinary people.
Flying in the air has always been a cherished dream of humans.
However, in reality, only experts above Level 5 of the Yin Five Elements, who cultivate the Power of Heaven and Earth, can fly in the air.
Xu Guang hadn't initially noticed this bird.
But his divine thought was continuously searching for the hidden mastermind.
He thought the opponent would definitely pay attention to this assassination.
They needed to ensure his death or the complete death of the assassins.
This mentality would be present in any normal person.
Xu Guang didn't believe the adversary could be entirely flawless.
However, as his divine thought became increasingly active, he finally noticed this somewhat peculiar bird.
His divine thought swept over it multiple times; such a sharp avian demon beast should have long left.
But now…
It was surprisingly still circling overhead.
Xu Guang slowly raised his hand, pointing at the bird. The red-legged, white-beaked bird flew skyward in an instant, vanishing in a particular direction.
Was it… pointing the way?
Xu Guang's expression became peculiar.
His divine thought extended with the bird's glide, reaching a full eighteen miles.
Here, Xu Guang saw nothing, but the bird stopped.
Xu Guang squinted his eyes.
"Does this mean that person is hiding here?"
Now he was sure the bird was being controlled.
He recalled some previously overlooked matters; this bird seemed to have appeared in Qingshuo County when he killed Tu Biao and others.
A face appeared in his mind.
He let out a snort of laughter.
'It seems Changsong Prefecture is indeed teeming with talents.'
Xu Guang slowly reached for the Cui City beside him, golden energy swirling in his eyes, the upgrade to Level 10's falling power, which he himself had never witnessed in full.
With strands of gold-attributed Qi Force, it seemed as if consumed by some invisible existence, furiously devouring into the City-Breaking Bow.
The City-Breaking Bow was gradually drawn open.
Ghostly wails and howls accompanied by sharp sonic booms sounded, as if countless beasts were roaring simultaneously, momentarily halting the distant battlefield.
Almost simultaneously, everyone felt as if an immense hand loomed overhead.
A sensation of their lives being gripped by an invisible gigantic hand surged within everyone's heart.
...
"What is that?"
Jiang Zi Yun's gaze suddenly shifted toward Xu Guang's direction; all she saw at his location was dark Yin Qi, like heavy clouds converging beside him, gathering a suffocating force.
