Chapter 258: Catfight

cultivation techniques. However, I have another mission, and I need to understand what happened in this soul-chilling place back then. If you all obstruct me, I will only have to break in myself." Lu..."Look, this Qicat's speed seems a bit slower," In the midst of everyone's astonishment and shock, Lu Xiaoteng suddenly loudly pulled the other party back from their slightly dazed state.

“As expected, this Qicat’s speed is indeed a bit slower.” The sharp-eyed cultivator was overjoyed in an instant, noticing that the Qicat's charging speed wasn't as fast as before.

Seeing Luo Qian and Su Qing's faces ignite with renewed fighting spirit, Lu Xiaoteng felt a slight ease in his heart. Although he was stronger than Luo Qian, the power emanating from the Dan Yuan artifact wasn't much different from Luo Qian's. Besides using the Dan Yuan artifact, his power was even slightly weaker than Luo Qian, this thunder-attribute cultivator. Although the others looked less powerful, there were many of them, and their combined strength was formidable. Even they couldn't subdue these two demonic beasts, so he was helpless. If it weren't for fear of Qu Mao's strength, he would have probably taken the Golden Fruit long ago.

But things always turn out differently than expected. Lu Xiaoteng's side gained Luo Qian and Su Qing, two powerful cultivators. Other teams either kept a low profile or lacked strong masters. The other Qicat wasn't affected by the lightning power, breaking through the siege of over ten weapons. After that, it moved like wind, its body leaping from the ground. Taking advantage of a cultivator nearby who hadn't reacted yet, it raised its claw in mid-air, several streaks of claw-shaped energy flashing with golden light, leaving behind a series of afterimages. Its movements were so fast that people couldn't keep up. A scream rang out, and the cultivator closest to it had a hole torn in his neck, blood gushing out like a spring. He clutched his neck on the ground, struggling in pain.

“Help, save me….” The injured person lay on the ground in agonizing struggle, but at this moment, Qiu Mao had leaped into the ranks. The team of cultivators immediately descended into chaos, each for themselves, who had time to care for the seriously wounded man

Screams echoed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, four or five people were either killed or injured. Those who were grabbed at their vital points fell directly to the ground, while the wounded ones retreated in terror. If they hadn't seen their companions moving slower under the influence of lightning power and coming back to help, this squad would have absolutely been unable to survive with so many casualties.

Now with the addition of a wounded cat, Luo Qian and Su Qing's team faced increased pressure. The damaged squad was severely weakened, not to mention their morale was shattered, they hesitated and feared to move forward.

The blood splattered onto Qu Mao's smooth body, hitting the lotus leaves and sliding off. It landed directly below, leaving not a single speck of dust on Qu Mao's body, let alone any trace of blood.

Lu Xia Tian's mind flashed a trace of doubt. The Qu Mao he knew from the Monster Beast Records was not half as powerful as the one before him. Even he felt somewhat helpless.

“If you all stand idle and watch, we’ll leave right now. We’ll just part ways and forget about getting the condensed gold fruit.” The cat that had been affected by lightning recovered its strength incredibly quickly, returning to normal in a flash. The other one rushed over as well. Even though Su Qing usually looked down on others, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed at this moment. She glared coldly at Cheng Tao and the other team.

“What’s the rush I was just observing Qu Mao’s weaknesses, wasn’t I” Cheng Tao was obviously shocked by Qu Mao’s strength. Now that Su Qing had exposed his thoughts, he couldn't help but chuckle dryly, putting away his previous arrogance and approaching cautiously. In front of these two Qu Maos, even if he was arrogant, he couldn’t afford to be careless at this time. Although he was a little dissatisfied with Su Qing’s tone, from another perspective, if the other party hadn't moved, he would have probably retreated long ago. Where would there be such polite words”

Cheng Tao's body moved nimbly, flying out a hundred meters. His attendants looked fearful, but at this moment, none of them dared to take a step back. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to withstand the wrath of this second young master after the fact.

With the offering of the Jade Bi Jiao, a number of dragons swayed their bodies and hummed softly as they surrounded a solitary cat that looked up at them.

The Qicat sneered, its body agilely darting through the ever-increasing number of Jiaolong. Its claws were as fast as the wind, leaving a blur of claw shadows everywhere, along with fragmented droplets of blue Bi Jiao. While individual Bi Jiao lacked high damage output and strength, they were still enough to give ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators a headache. Especially since they seemed endless, emerging from the Bi Jiao Pearl in an uninterrupted stream. The shattered water droplets reformed into a hazy blue mist which was then absorbed back into the Bi Jiao Pearl.

Cheng Tao's face was rather ugly. He didn't expect his current attack to be able to stop Qu Mao, but at least on the surface, the attack he launched in front of this monster beast seemed utterly ineffective. His greatest reliance was this Bi Jiaozhu. With this bead, he had secretly and openly killed a dozen or so potential threats, and there were even more who were defeated by him. Now, it had completely lost its effect.

It seems that even the relentless onslaught of the Azure Dragons has begun to wear down Qu Mao. Occasionally, he barely even bothers swatting at one or two, allowing them to crash against him without a single strike. However, they invariably slide harmlessly off his body.

"Beast, you dare to underestimate me so!" Seeing Qu Mao's contemptuous look, Cheng Tao couldn't help but get angry, the light of the Azure Jiao pearl on his head shining brightly.

“Second Young Master, this demonic beast is too powerful. Don’t act rashly and waste your magic power.” The fat man beside him saw Cheng Tao's furious expression and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly advised.

“Huh What do you mean” Cheng Tao wasn’t stupid either. After hearing what his attendant said, he immediately calmed down.

"Second Young Master, the others aren't this desperate. They can only hold back this demonic beast with all their might. Why are we so desperate Even if we kill the demon beast by fighting desperately, it will be a huge drain on our energy. If we don't fight well, and the demon beast catches us off guard, we could suffer heavy losses." Year Fatzy blinked his eyes and said.

Cheng Tao let out a low snort and didn't speak again, but the light emanating from the Bi Jiao Pearl on his head dimmed somewhat. The Bi Jiao within swam languidly south, unable to harm Qiu Mao, but it managed to temporarily hinder his progress, serving as a sort of annoyance. His gaze shifted to the other side, where Luo Qian and Su Qing were also having a difficult time. Qiu Mao's speed was impressive, and although Su Qing's fish-scale whip was no ordinary weapon, every strike was dodged by Qiu Mao, leaving only a crackling sound in the air. It seemed to have no effect, instead causing the opponent frustration and agitation. Cheng Tao couldn't help but find it amusing, though he kept his expression neutral. He didn't want to provoke the other party into anger, after all, women were known to be more sensitive than men.

Lu Xiaitian's whip also lashed out from time to time, circling Su Qing in front and back, trying to trap Qiu Mao with the whip. However, this Qiu Mao was slippery, and every time the whip touched its surface, it would slide away, unable to gain any grip. Every time the whip tried to wrap around it, Qiu Mao would struggle and jump, cleverly escaping the predicament.
