The First Volume of Divine Land: Chapter 126 - Steel Armor Demon Cow (Part 2)

  Steel Armor Demon Cow, back when Xuan Tian was still an outer sect disciple, he had once encountered it in the Yin Wind Mountain Range.

  However, the Steel Armor Ox I met was just a third-level low-ranking demon beast.

  The final evolution of the Steel Armor Ox is a fourth-level low-ranking demon beast. The Steel Armor Ox in front of him was obviously much more powerful than the one Xuan Tian had encountered before, and it was a third-level demon beast overlord.

  Steel-plated Demon Cow, its entire body has steel-like skin, with extremely strong defensive capabilities, even Mystic-rank treasures find it difficult to break through its defenses.

  The Steel Armored Ox, a tertiary Overlord of the Demon Beast, is equivalent to a human martial artist at the Fifth Level of the Innate Realm. Its super strong defensive power makes it nearly invulnerable, and only a mid-grade or higher Xuan-class artifact might pose a threat to it.

  That third-level Overlord demonic beast, Steel Armor Demon Ox, had blood-red eyes that glowed as it charged straight at the four of them.

  Feng Buzhi was shocked: "Last year, Ling Luo Feng could control at most a third-level upper-stage demon beast. Could it be that his Beast Taming Decision has made another breakthrough? He can actually control a third-level demon beast overlord and contend with a five-realm pre-heavenly expert?"

  Gu Qianrou's face turned somewhat pale as she said, "Controlling a third-level demonic beast to attack us, Ling Luofeng is trying to take our lives."

  After a moment of astonishment, Xuan Tian's face instantly returned to normal, and he shouted: "I'll block the Steel Armor Demon Cow, you guys hurry up and leave!"

  The Steel Armor Demon Cow has a strong defense and infinite power, but its speed is slightly inferior to that of other Tier 3 Demon Beast Overlords. However, compared to upper-tier Tier 3 Demon Beasts, it's still much faster.

  In one second, the Steel Armor Demon Cow charged forward for over a hundred steps, nearly fifty meters. The Steel Armor Demon Cow had just appeared in everyone's line of sight when, in just over two seconds, it had already rushed to thirty meters ahead.

  Clang!

  As soon as the sound of Xuantian's voice fell, 'Chu Lanzhu' instantly left its scabbard. A dazzling blue sword aura, carrying a scorching breath, burst out in an explosive thrust.

  One sword sets the sky ablaze!

  Xuantian's single sword thrusts directly at the weak point of the Steel Armor Ox Demon - its eyes.

  Xuantian's speed was so fast that it reached the extreme, thirty meters away, and he arrived in one step. That dazzling sword tip had just appeared, and it was already in front of the Steel Armor Cow Demon's eyes.

  The Steel Armor Demon Cow's movement speed was much slower than Xuán Tiān, but its reaction speed was as fast as lightning. With a single kick of its front hooves, it stopped advancing in an instant. In the same moment, the cow head swung around, and 'Initial Blue Sword' had yet to pierce the Steel Armor Demon Cow's eyes. The Steel Armor Demon Cow's horns, like those of a Xuán Jiē treasure, had already swept across 'Initial Blue Sword'.

  Clang!

  A loud crash. The enormous power, rebounded back, if not for Xu Tian possessing over 10,000 jin of terrifying strength, at this moment his body would probably have been swept away by the Steel Armor Ox's horn and sent flying into the sky.

  The enormous shock caused the 'Initial Blue Sword' to hum, fortunately the 'Initial Blue Sword's solidity was not inferior to that of a Xuan-tier artifact, if it were an ordinary famous sword, it would have probably been broken into two pieces by now.

  Xuantian moved sideways a few steps along the direction of the force's backlash, transforming the power into nothingness. The steel-armored ox's four hooves stirred, and its entire body was like a moving iron fortress, crushing towards Xuantian.

  "Brother Huang——!"

  Seeing the ominous situation, Feng Mozhi and three others were sealed off. In an instant, they forgot about their previous plans and let out a loud cry for help.

  Xuantian unleashed the 'Dragon Tiger Step', a powerful force that stomped on the ground, creating a deep footprint. His body flashed to the side like lightning, causing the Steel Armor Ox's trample to fall empty.

  "This beast can't do anything to me, you go first, we four, as long as one of us is alive, Ling Luo Feng won't dare to be presumptuous." Xuan Tian shouted loudly, dodging the Steel Armor Cow's attack.

  The Tianjian Sect and the Lingyun Sect, although openly competing and secretly fighting, have disciples on both sides who have died. However, no one has ever dared to openly kill a disciple of the opposing sect, not even the elders of either sect.

  Xuantian's four people, in the Tianjian Sect, their status is not low. Ling Luofeng and others dare to kill them, as long as one of them escapes, once the news spreads back to the Tianjian Sect, under the pressure of the Tianjian Sect, they will also not be able to survive.

  Obviously, Ling Luo knew that Xuan Tian was the strongest among the four of them. He controlled the Steel Armor Ox and ignored Feng Bu Zhi and the others, focusing his attacks on Xuan Tian alone. As long as he could kill Xuan Tian, killing Feng Bu Zhi and the others would be a piece of cake.

  On the other hand, if Xuan Tian didn't die, even if Ling Luo Feng had a thousand guts, he wouldn't dare to make a move on Feng Bu Zhi and his two companions.

  Steel Armor Demon Cow, among the same level of demon beasts, is a top-notch existence. Among the third-level demon beast overlords, although not as perverted as the Black Line King Snake, it is much more powerful than other third-level demon beast overlords.

  Long-distance running, Steel Armor Demon Cow's speed may not be as good as the Three-level Demon Beast Overlord who is known for its speed, but close-range attacks are not inferior at all.

  Xuantian had just dodged the Steel Armor Demon Cow's attack, and the Steel Armor Demon Cow's body instantly turned around and charged at Xuantian again.

  Xuantian's 'Dragon Tiger Step' had long since reached the realm of great perfection, with a speed as fast as lightning. Moreover, after cultivating the 'Nine Forging Technique', his strength was enormous. With his feet on the ground, the massive counterforce made his speed even faster than lightning. Although the Steel Armor Ox Demon's attack was like a raging storm, fast as lightning, Xuantian dodged them all.

  Seeing the Steel Armor Demon Cow, they couldn't do anything to Xuan Tian. Feng Bu Zhi and the other two realized they were overthinking, exchanged a glance, and immediately ran towards the mountain ridge beside the canyon. Only after they left did Xuan Tian manage to retreat.

  "Haha, can you run away?"

  Feng Bu Zhi and the other two had just run less than a hundred steps when suddenly a loud laughter echoed from the front. The empty space in front of them seemed to be affected by an invisible force, which suddenly pressed down, forming a palm print that slapped towards Feng Bu Zhi and the other two.

  A figure suddenly appeared from the front, more than 100 meters away from Feng Buji and his two companions.

  Even from over two hundred steps away, they could still manage to capture the Void Palm Imprint. The thickness of their innate True Qi was at least that of a third-realm warrior in the Innate Realm, and what's more, they were among the best of them.

  Feng Buzhi suddenly slapped out with his palm, a powerful aura bursting forth through the air, also forming an illusory palm print.

  In an instant, two illusory palm prints merged together, and a thunderous explosion echoed through the void.

  A massive counter-shock force surged back, like a mad wind blowing in the opposite direction, and the three of them, Feng Bu Zhī, suddenly stopped in their tracks.

  The figure in front, moving quickly forward, suddenly became clear, it was indeed Yan Guanxi, the fourth inner disciple of Lingyun Sect. Behind him, two other disciples of Lingyun Sect were following far away, both of whom were among the three San Tian brothers that Feng Bu Zhi had met at the Meng Hu Inn in Yinfeng Town.

  "Bad!" Fēng Bù Zhì whispered ominously: "The other side deliberately wants to kill us all here."

  Yan Guanxi's entire demeanor was imposing, with one step spanning over 70 meters, extremely fast. In just two steps, he arrived in front of Feng Buqi and the other three.

  "Haha, you were actually able to block my palm strike! Your strength is pretty good, try blocking another one!"

  Yan Guanxi burst out laughing, and at the same time, his innate true energy condensed in his palm, suddenly shooting towards Feng Buzhi, a bright light flashing, intense energy condensing into a dazzling palm edge.

  The palm wind had not yet arrived, but the strong gusts of wind were already like a raging storm, enveloping Feng Buji, Gu Qianrou and Sun Yiqiu in its midst.

  Feng Bu Zhi retreated without a way out, and as soon as he did, this palm was about to land on Gu Qian Rou and Sun Yi Qiu.

  "Aoki's Seal!"

  Feng Bu Zhi instantly unleashed a low-level martial skill from the Mystic Rank, and with a single swing of his palm, he countered the attack.

  Clap Clap Clap——

  Two palm blades collided, producing a continuous explosive sound, layer upon layer of intense explosions. In an instant, all the palm blades exploded into a stream of air and splashed out. The two people's palms slapped together.

  Boom!

  The moment the two palms faced each other, a deafening thunderclap seemed to erupt between heaven and earth.

  Boom, boom, boom! Feng Buji's body retreated seven steps in a row before he could dissipate the enormous force of this palm strike. His internal energy was in disarray, with a tendency to go berserk.

  Yan Guanxi took a step back and stabilized his body. The difference in strength between the two was immediately apparent.

  Feng Bu Zhi's strength cannot be ranked in the top ten among the inner disciples of Tianjian Sect, while Yan Guan Xi is one of the top ten inner disciples of Lingyun Sect, ranking fourth, equivalent to being one of the five giants among the inner disciples of Tianjian Sect, and stronger than Feng Bu Zhi by more than a notch or two.

  Just as Yan Guanxi was about to leave, two more Lingyun Sect disciples rushed over. Feng Buji shouted loudly: "Disperse and flee! As long as one of us escapes, everyone will be fine."

  "You can't escape from my palm, haha." Yan Guanxi burst out laughing, grasping a long spear in his hand, and thrust it at Feng Buqi.

  This long spear is radiant and resplendent, it's a Xuan-ranked treasure.

  With the use of his spear, Yan Guanxi's aura became even more majestic and his strength increased. One thrust of his spear and the world lost its color. The dazzling spearhead seemed to contain a heavenly momentum that was unstoppable.

  Clang!

  Feng Buqi's famous sword, at the same time out of its scabbard, shocking the heavens with its sword aura, turned back to attack the Western Gate.

  "Ling Luo Feng, Yan Guan Xi, if any of them are missing a single hair, I will return to the Tian Jian Sect tomorrow and inform Ling Shizu. Together, we will go to the Ling Yun Sect and find you four to settle today's account."

  At this moment, Xuan Tian's voice, with his Pre-Heaven True Qi, let out a loud roar, like thunder shaking the sky.

  As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Tian's body flashed past the Steel Armor Ox Demon's body in an instant, like a sharp arrow leaving the string, and disappeared into the thick fog deep within the valley.

  This Steel Armor Demon Cow's strength is equivalent to that of a top martial artist at the fifth realm of the Pre-Heavenly Boundary. If I were to fight it one-on-one, using all my trump cards, relying on my extremely fast speed, the sharpness of Mount Heavy Sword, and its terrifying power exceeding 10,000 jin, as well as my first-class sword intent, I might have a six or seven out of ten chance of winning.

  However, the other side has a Ling Luo Feng, who has been hiding in the dark. If Ling Luo Feng and the Steel Armor Demon Cow join forces, Xuan Tian's chances of winning will be less than 40%. Ling Luo Feng has the Beast Taming Technique, and if he combines it with the controlled demon beast, and there are other trump cards, Xuan Tian's chances of winning will be less than 10%.

  Since all the trump cards have been played out, the failure rate has exceeded 90%, it's almost a losing game. The trump card cannot turn defeat into victory, and exposing it is meaningless.

  So, Xuan Tian would rather retreat than fight, in this way, even if Feng Bu Zhi and the other two were captured by Ling Luo Feng and others, they wouldn't be in danger.

  Ling Luo had already made up his mind to kill, how could he let Xuan Tian escape easily? The steel-armored cow demon let out a thunderous roar and followed closely behind Xuan Tian, also charging into the valley.
