Chapter 293: Waiting for a Rabbit at the Tree Stump

a sphere but had hands and feet. His primordial spirit moved, and he separated from this newly born body. Lu Xia Tian saw a half-foot-tall infant opposite him, with eyes, ears, nose, and mouth identi...Lu Xiaoteng smiled slightly. This Ge Changting was much stronger than when he had first met him not long after leaving Wangyue City to build his foundation. Back then, Ge Changting was only in the early stage of Ghost Marquis. It was more difficult for ghost cultivators to improve their cultivation than human cultivators, but these years he had still managed to reach the middle stage of Ghost Marquis, which showed that Ge Changting had put in a lot of effort. Lu Xiaoteng had been at the sixth level of foundation building for some time. Under the combined effect of many Hanfeng Pills and Chizhu Pills, his realm was now very stable. Compared to him, Ge Changting was two levels lower and naturally suppressed by Bingpo Xuan Yin. Examples like Yuan Hao, who came from Gujianzong and had a Jindan cultivator supporting him, and wore artifacts that could defend against attacks on the soul were rare after all.

Although the three people from Ge Changting were defeated by Lu Xiaoteng with ease, it doesn't mean their strength was truly weak. They were just unfortunately countered by Lu Xiaoteng.

At this time, Ge Changting only used more than a hundred white bone skeletons to trap the corpse wolf equivalent to the early stage of foundation building. If Ge Changting had wanted to kill it, he wouldn't have bothered so much.

"Ge Lao Gui, just a nascent Soul Formation stage corpse wolf, why waste so much time If you can't do it, I and Xiao San Niang will help." Hu Lao Gui said impatiently from the side.

"Young master isn't in a hurry, why are you so anxious A single corpse wolf doesn't need your help." Ge Changting said, controlling the skeleton army with a bit more force. He glanced at Lu Xiaoteng from the corner of his eye. Seeing that Lu Xiaoteng hadn't said anything but was calmly observing the surroundings, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He had deliberately slowed down his attack on the corpse wolf, naturally because of his own motives. Hu Laogui was clearly jealous of the fact that he was about to subdue this corpse wolf. After all, this corpse wolf was quite powerful. Although it would take a considerable amount of time to refine it into a member of his skeleton army, at least several years.

As long as Lu Xia Tian, this mysterious young man, didn't object to his actions, Xiao San Niang and Hu Lao Gui were just jealous, what could they do about it Ge Chang Ting sneered in his heart, but worried that a delay would cause trouble, so he also increased the speed of the skeleton attack.

To tame and refine a corpse wolf, the process is extremely meticulous, and every step must be handled with care. A corpse wolf's spiritual awareness at the foundation-building stage is already quite good, and its strength is formidable. The attack force needs to be significant enough, but if it's too strong, it could destroy the corpse wolf. Even if you expend all your effort to refine it afterward, its strength might not be high enough. Compared to the cost, it wouldn't be worth the effort. It's not as simple as killing it and then being able to successfully refine it.

Otherwise, if it were so easy, ghost cultivators could casually refine skeletons equivalent to the Foundation Establishment period. Wouldn't they have already dominated the world How could they be in a disadvantaged position in places like望月, 天穹, and 南荒Because of the increased attack intensity, the Corpse Wolf was exhausted and received a heavy blow from a skeleton, breaking two bones. Ge Changting felt heartbroken. The more severely the Corpse Wolf was injured, the less valuable the ones refined later would be. His resentment towards Old Monster Hu grew even stronger.

As for the petty squabbles between a few Ghost Cultivators, Lu Xia Tian simply chose to ignore them. Where there are humans, there will be conflict, and Ghost Cultivators are no different. These three Ghost Cultivators had previously banded together when they saw him, an outsider, enter the tomb with the intention of killing him for his loot. But that doesn't mean there were no conflicts between the three.

This is a test.

If these three ghost cultivators banded together, it wouldn't be a good thing for Lu Xiaotian. However, if they each had their own thoughts and conflicting interests, they could be controlled and used against each other. Therefore, Lu Xiaotian did not intervene in their minor squabbles.

After a while, under the combined attack of Ge Changting's expert guarding skills and the Skeleton Squad's Yin Sha Corpse Fire, the corpse wolf howled and fell to the ground. Ge Changting was overjoyed. Although he hadn't achieved complete success, he had at least preserved most of the corpse wolf's power. If he could transform his skeleton soldiers into wolf knights, even if he had a few more wolf knight commanders, his strength would undoubtedly increase significantly, and challenging human cultivators wouldn't be out of reach. Of course, the young man in front of him was an exception. Thinking of Lu Xiaitian's methods, Ge Changting felt a chill in his heart. Facing such a person, I'm afraid that even if his wolf riders did their best, they would not be able to withstand a single move from the other party.

"Young master, the area ahead is where the Bai Mao Jiang roam. They are incredibly powerful, some even reaching the level of sixth-rank Fei Jiang. The three of us can only observe from the perimeter." Xiao Sanniang accompanied with a smile.

"How to capture the White-haired Ghoul Is that all we can do, wait in this area" Lu Xia Tian frowned.

"There are other areas in the tomb where green and black zombies are distributed. In the next few, several times almost intercepted by high-level zombies. For safety's sake, they moved together in the outer area of the tomb, looking for some needed spiritual objects, sometimes also cooperating to kill one or two zombies, dividing up the materials on their bodies. But the deeper parts of the tomb are not dared to go." Old Monster Hu said cautiously, "I presume with your son's strength, it is no problem to go deeper, but the number of zombies in this tomb is unknown, and their strength is unfathomable. For safety's sake, it is better to wait outside for a while. Although it takes longer, it is safer."

Thinking of the terrifying high-level zombies inside, the three of them were clearly shaken. This time, they surprisingly gathered their courage and made a suggestion to Lu Xia tian.

"Alright then, I'll wait here for a while. Given your familiarity with this place, you should know the habits of the zombies and their general activity patterns. I hope we don't waste my time." Lu Xia Tian glanced at the few people. What they were saying was essentially just waiting in one place like rabbits caught in a snare. However, the fact that these three Ghost Cultivators were so cautious clearly indicated that there was something powerful and sinister within this tomb. Lu Xia Tian wanted to fulfill his promise and leave as soon as possible, and he didn't want to take too many risks, so he agreed to their proposal.

“That’s natural, it will take three to five days at the fastest, half a month at the slowest. If I can’t capture a zombie for you, dispose of me as you see fit.” Upon hearing Lu Xia Tian agree, the three let out a collective sigh of relief. They were most afraid that the young man in front of them would be arrogant and overconfident, forcing them to go inside. Now it seemed that the young man was not a reckless person, but their respect for Lu Xia Tian deepened even further. The more so, the harder such a person was to deal with. Not only was his actual strength unfathomable, but his mind was also difficult to fathom.

As before, Ge Changting, Hu Lao Gui, and Xiao Sanniang each used their methods to release a few weak skeletons to scout ahead, saving them a lot of trouble.
