"You have some skills, but you are only at the profound level of the Innate Realm, while I have already reached the other shore. You are still not enough to contend with me."
Zhu Xue's speed was so fast that Lu Kun was also extremely shocked, but he quickly recovered from his surprise. His feet swiftly moved to the side, and at the same time, a fist wrapped in mystic energy directly collided with the incoming finger print. The two forces collided, and the mystic energies dissipated simultaneously, but it was clear that Lu Kun had a slight advantage.
"You take the lead."
At the same time, the burly man also moved. As his figure darted out, he held a large saber in his hand, directly slashing towards the young man. Mystic energy surged on the large saber, causing the surrounding space to ripple. He was also a cultivator at the Innate Realm level.
"Damn it, you little demon hunters dare to challenge our Mystic Talisman Sect. One day, I will make you regret it." The young man shouted, but he did not dare to be careless at all. Mystic energy surged, and his long sword turned into a cold light, meeting the burly man's saber blade in a flash.
Immediately, the two of them engaged in a fierce battle. The young man was at the same realm as the burly man, but in terms of strength, he relied on an excellent innate sword technique and his own advantages, and he was actually evenly matched with the burly man.
Moreover, the young man was only sixteen or seventeen years old, while the burly man was already in his thirties, approaching forty. The difference in talent was clear, and it wouldn't be long before the young man could handle the burly man.
Not far away, the battle between Zhu Xue and Lu Kun was also difficult to determine a winner. Although Lu Kun had a slight advantage, he couldn't completely suppress Zhu Xue in the short term.
"Attack together, let's cripple this kid first."
After a long attack without success, and even feeling increasingly pressured, the burly man seemed to fear the young man's identity and became anxious. He immediately shouted to the dozen or so people around him.
"Attack together."
The dozen or so men, hearing this, immediately rushed forward with various weapons. Although their strength was not as strong as the burly man's, and some were not even at the Innate Realm, the key was that there were many of them, which caused the young man considerable trouble.
As for the young men who were with Lu Kun, their gazes were all on Lu Kun and Zhu Xue, and they did not pay much attention to the burly man and the others. There was even a hint of disdain and contempt in their eyes, as if they did not consider the burly man and the others worth their attention, and were only using them for now.
"Rip!"
Although the young man was surrounded, he took the opportunity to kill several men with his sword, and even severely injured a few others. Those who were not at the Innate Realm level were indeed difficult to contend with an Innate Realm cultivator.
"Rip!"
At the same time, the leading burly man finally found an opportunity. The saber blade split the air and fell towards the young man.
"Spirit Chasing Sword Technique."
The young man's face changed drastically. His long sword transformed into several sword shadows, entangling the saber blade and blocking it from the outside. He actually managed to block the fierce strike.
"Bang!"
However, the burly man was clearly more experienced in battle, with much more experience than the young man. A fist print appeared in front of the young man's chest, and a punch landed, causing the young man to stagger back several steps. His long sword fell from his hand, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Kid, don't think the name of the Mystic Talisman Sect will be of any use in the Savage Beast Mountains. I would naturally be afraid if you were alive, but if you all die, who would know that your deaths are related to me?"
The burly middle-aged man's lips curled into a cold smile, and a killing aura spread. Those who made a living in the Savage Beast Mountains did not mind killing a few people; the benefits were the most important. The disciples of the Mystic Talisman Sect definitely had surprises that would delight them. Without any hesitation, he stomped the ground hard and slashed his saber directly at the young man.
The young man, staggering and injured, found it difficult to block the burly man. As the saber blade fell, his pupils contracted, and he could only watch helplessly as the blade descended.
"Too many bullying the few, that's not very decent."
Just as the young man was almost overwhelmed by despair, a voice suddenly sounded beside him. His vision blurred, and a figure appeared beside him like a ghost.
"Bang!"
A low sound of an explosion echoed, and the surrounding space trembled violently. Then everyone saw the burly man stagger back, his face turning pale, his eyes filled with shock as he immediately looked up.
At this moment, many gazes immediately fell on the suddenly appearing figure, and everyone's expressions turned surprised.
The one who suddenly appeared was a young man, dressed in thick leaves and tree vines, looking like a wild man, but with a very clear and bright gaze, a handsome face, and an aura that did not resemble a wild man.
It was truly Du Shaofu. Climbing out of the mysterious cave, Du Shaofu realized he was at the bottom of a cliff, and his clothes had been burned to ashes.
Du Shaofu did not carry clothes with him, so he had no choice but to use leaves and tree vines to cover himself. He had just climbed out of the cliff and saw the fight. Seeing many people bullying the few, and being at the Innate Realm himself, he couldn't help but intervene.
"It's him..."
The few young men who were with Lu Kun immediately recognized Du Shaofu. The young man who had once sent one of their fellow disciples flying with a single move was now encountered again.
"It's you..."
The young man who had just escaped death was also very surprised to see Du Shaofu, as he had seen Du Shaofu in action not far away before.
"Where did you come from, wild kid? You dare to meddle in the affairs of the White Leopard Demon Hunter Group?"
The burly man, who had been pushed back, was startled. Seeing that it was just a wild kid, he roared, his body surging with mystic energy, which poured into his arms. He tightly gripped the large saber, stomped the ground hard, and with a fierce speed, the wind pressure blew away the surrounding leaves, and he slashed his saber fiercely at Du Shaofu.
"Heavy Slash!"
This was the burly man's famous move, which had even killed innate-level demon beasts. The fierce saber blade carried a powerful force, as if it could split everything into pieces.
Du Shaofu's gaze flickered, but his face remained calm as he felt the fierce wind pressure coming towards him. Just as the saber blade was about to land, his body moved incredibly agilely to the side, and the saber blade just grazed his ear and slashed down.
"Crack!"
The saber blade landed, and the ground was split by the fierce force, creating a huge crack. A tree as thick as a barrel was also split from the roots.
In a short moment, Du Shaofu's fist tightened, and as he avoided the saber blade, his foot lightly touched the ground, and he moved like a ghost behind the burly man. His fist, filled with mystic energy, made thirteen strange sounds, as if it could crush the surrounding air, and then it struck heavily on the burly man's back.
"Bang!"
A dull sound echoed, and the burly man's cold smile froze. His eyes filled with shock, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, which contained fragments of his internal organs.
"You are only at the initial stage of the Innate Realm, how is this possible, how is this possible..."
