The crimson fireball plumted rapidly, causing the Lizard Demon Beast to feel a chill of terror.
Clearly, it hadn’t detected how the enemy had appeared.
But at this mont, in a hurry, it couldn’t dodge it.
Fortunately, it was a Water Attribute Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beast!
"Puff!"
The Lizard Demon Beast opened its hideous maw, from which dazzling blue light emanated, gathering Demon Power, and then a condensed blue water column shot out, piercing through the air, fiercely colliding with the crimson fireball crashing down from above.
Bang!
In mid-air, when water and fire t, they imdiately exploded with a faint sound.
However, in the next mont, that proud blue water column of the Lizard Demon Beast began hissing under the fireball’s scorching heat, eventually evaporating completely.
And the crimson fireball, about the size of half a fist, only dimd in brightness slightly, decreased in size slightly, and still appeared quite powerful as it fell towards it.
Upon seeing this, the Lizard’s eyes revealed a trace of fear, it spat out another blue water column at the approaching fireball, and rolled quickly to the ground, clearly without hope that the water column could withstand the fireball.
Had it been at its peak, maybe it could have managed.
But now, it just wanted to avoid the fireball and stand firm to escape swiftly.
Bang!
The fireball, now reduced in size, again collided with a blue water column, extinguishing the latter, but the fireball also shrank to the size of a red date, then exploded, transforming into a residual fla that floated towards the rolling Lizard Demon Beast.
Although the Lizard Demon Beast was injured, in the face of life-or-death danger, its movents were still agile, narrowly dodging the incoming fla, glaring hatefully at Qi Chuan who appeared not far away, then its feet moved, ready to flee swiftly from this place.
Not far away, Qi Chuan watched this scene, sighed, and quickly ford a seal.
Whoosh whoosh!
Suddenly, the ground around the Lizard Demon Beast burst open, and vine tendrils as thick as arms erupted from the ground, growing madly, like tentacles constantly moving and cunningly entangling the Lizard Demon Beast.
Then, a Talisman appeared in Qi Chuan’s hand, which ignited spontaneously under the infusion of Mana, and five magical water arrows, each the size of a thumb, appeared silently, tearing through the air, and shot swiftly towards the Lizard Demon Beast.
The Lizard Demon Beast, originally intending to escape, was trapped by the sudden thick vines, unable to break free, and beca increasingly tight, panic-stricken.
In its current state, it couldn’t even unleash the blue water column.
Finally, under its terrified gaze, five magical water arrows, each the size of a thumb, fell onto the back’s hideous wound and exploded inside, causing blood to spurt and eliciting a miserable cry.
Da da.
Qi Chuan stepped forward, slowly approaching the Lizard Demon Beast.
The gaping wound on its back expanded further, reaching its neck.
The Lizard Demon Beast scread miserably and struggled, but the more it struggled, the larger the wound grew, and the more blood was lost, soon it was more out of breath than in.
After its commotion completely ceased, Qi Chuan waited a while before approaching. Gazing at the large demon beast corpse several yards in size, he touched the smooth and cold scales on the Lizard Beast’s head, revealing a curious look in his eyes.
This was his first ti personally encountering a real demon beast, feeling very strange.
But why was this demon beast so weak?
Qi Chuan glanced at the spirit grass ruined in the Spirit Field, wondering if the value of this demon beast corpse could offset these losses.
Nonetheless, a crisis was resolved for this peak, and gaining a batch of demon beast materials was indeed very beneficial.
Afterward, Qi Chuan tidied the scene, transporting the demon beast corpse to a storage room designated for items, locked it securely, and then went to his own room to sleep.
Perhaps due to the exertion, he slept extraordinarily well.
The next day, Second Uncle returned.
Qi Chuan then inford him of the incident.
Upon hearing, Qi Baicang wore an incredulous expression, quickly heading to the storage room and seeing the lying demon beast corpse, finally believing.
"It’s indeed a demon beast, when did it sneak in?"
Knowing that over the years, Qi Baicang himself hadn’t killed many demon beasts.
Demon beasts are powerful, even the weakest Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beast equates to early stage Qi Refining capability, and he himself, at Qi Refining Third Layer, had to be extrely cautious when facing a Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beast.
But now, a younger mber of his family killed one?
"Just last night, stealing Second Uncle’s spirit grass quite a bit, its back has a rather large wound, already severely injured, this was part of the reason it was relatively easy for to handle." Qi Chuan said.
"Tsk, it’s the ’Blue Lizard Demon,’ among Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beasts, its strength is considered the top tier, and judging by this size, it’s fully matured, generally even a cultivator at Qi Refining Third Layer might find it difficult to deal with."
"Luckily this ti, it’s a severely injured demon beast, otherwise, if I weren’t here, you would be in so danger."
Qi Baicang replied with so relief.
"Second Uncle, we are here at Qi Feng Valley, all wild demon beasts within the valley have been eradicated, only a few family-raised demon beasts remain, how could this Blue Lizard Demon appear here?" Qi Chuan expressed curiosity.
"Perhaps, it’s related to the turmoil outside?"
Qi Baicang indifferently replied: "Even the Xiao Family, considered a Foundation Establishnt Strong Race, was wiped out, a Lizard Demon Beast living in the Wilderness Mountain Range, encountering so crisis and fleeing out of the mountain range isn’t odd."
"Moreover, I heard from the clan’s mission, the Secret Realm might soon conclude, the opportunities within likely grasped by Wind Moon Sect, then this tumultuous situation will stabilize again?"
"I see." Qi Chuan nodded.
In a way, this Lizard Demon Beast might indirectly be brought to him by that Secret Realm.
As for the opportunities of the Secret Realm falling into the hands of Wind Moon Sect, he felt it irrelevant to him, instead finding more security in the situation’s stabilization.
After all, this accidental invader was rely a Tier One Lower Grade Demon Beast, what if there’s a next ti with sothing more powerful?
Putting aside these thoughts, Qi Chuan gazed at the Lizard Demon Beast corpse before him, asking: "So what should be done with this demon corpse?"
Qi Baicang said: "My suggestion is to sell it to the family, under circumstances of accidental kill, even if killed within the clan, it still belongs to the killer, the family won’t take it forcibly but offers a rightful purchase price."
"Moreover, this demon beast corpse we can’t process ourselves, difficult to preserve, can’t eat all the at, demon beast materials aren’t needed by us currently."
"Furthermore, its size is substantial, selling the at alone should fetch quite a few Spirit Stones, could exchange for so Elixirs."
"If I’m not mistaken, you’ve reached Qi Refining Second Layer by now, correct?"
Qi Baicang asked with a smile looking towards Qi Chuan.
Qi Chuan nodded, acknowledging.
Qi Baicang sighed, feeling impressed: "I suspected even a severely injured mature Blue Lizard Demon sneaking here implies certain remaining capabilities, not sothing a Qi Refining First Layer Cultivator could easily manage, perhaps Qi Refining Second Layer made it feasible."
"Only, your cultivation speed exceeds my expectations far too much."
Although advancing from Qi Refining First Layer to Second Layer is relatively easy, still comparatively, Qi Chuan’s advancent with a Lower Eighth Grade Spirit Root within a year to Qi Refining Second Layer was comndable and surprising.
Yet recalling Qi Chuan’s successful advancent to Qi Refining First Layer within a month, harmoniously aligned with the Longevity Technique, was understandable.
"However, breaking through to Qi Refining Second Layer, wanting further progression necessitates accumulating more Mana, with this demon beast corpse exchanged for Elixir, your future cultivation will be eased sowhat."
