In the cave, Qing Lei sat on the stone bed and quickly meditated. The little guy lazily lied at the entrance of the cave, looking at Qing Lei's direction with boredom, then turned to look outside the waterfall. However, it's ears were still erected at a certain height, so all the surrounding sounds couldn't escape its ears.
"Yin —"
It was unknown when, but suddenly, a sword hum attracted the little guy's attention. When it turned around, it saw Qing Lei's body surrounded by a layer of dark blue energy. There was a lot of white energy floating on the surface of the dark blue energy.
As time passed, more and more white colored energy appeared, and every time the white energy reached a certain extent, the Seven-layer Sword would sense that its master was becoming stronger, before releasing a humming sword song as a form of resonance!
Although there was more and more white energy, it was still nothing compared to the ghostly blue energy. As a result, their cultivation time would naturally be much longer.
Qing Lei stared at the energy changes in his body for ten days in a row. It was only on the eleventh day that he finally calmed down a little, because more than half of the dark blue energy had already been replaced by the white energy. Furthermore, the white energy was very strong.
At the same time, Jungle Wolf Mercenary Group Guild Leader Tia Po did not receive any news about the dispatch of mercenaries for a long time, so he brought the other mercenaries to follow the marks left by the previous mercenaries and slowly walked towards the inner parts of the devil beast Forest.
With his many years of experience, Tia Po could tell with a single glance that these mercenaries died at the hands of a Dou Qi Cultivator instead of a devil beast. Looking at his wealth that he had painstakingly saved up, being defeated by others in such a way, Tia Po instantly went berserk and roared at the top of his lungs.
"Little bastard, you've slaughtered my brother, killed my brothers, and ruined my career. If I ever get my hands on you in the future, I'll turn you into ashes so I can vent the hatred in my heart!" He, the Guild Leader, had not even seen the face of the other side and had already lost his troops. If this were to spread out, how could his Jungle Wolf Mercenary Group be able to establish a foothold in Qin Mountains City, he would lose even more face!
Although Tia Po's eyes were full of killing intent, he wasn't blinded by hatred. At least, from the fear in the mercenaries' eyes when they were dying, he could tell that the enemy's strength had increased by a lot. Judging from the power of this strike, the enemy's strength was probably even stronger than his!
Tia Po had also begun to realize that it was impossible to get revenge by himself. Currently, as long as he returned to Qin Mountains City to spread the news, he would say that he had found Qing Lei's whereabouts, and a large number of experts would naturally rush to the devil beast Forest in order to obtain the Fighting Technique.
Carefully burying the corpses of the mercenaries on the spot, Tia Po rushed to the Jungle Wolf Mercenary Group Headquarters in Qin Ling City without stopping. He immediately posted a notice outside, spreading the news about Wu Tie's whereabouts, and also changed the in the bounty order to the intermediate level Profound Rank Fighting Technique.
In just a few days, all sorts of experts had arrived in the city, but the legend of Qing Lei's strength had always existed in the city, which made many experts afraid of the hunt for him. The ones who could participate in the hunt for him were at least level seven Fighting Infant experts, and the highest was a profound strength expert!
A group of experts along with Tia Po temporarily formed a hunting team of about thirty people. In order to find the whereabouts of Qing Lei as soon as possible, Tia Po was planning to divide the team of thirty people into six groups of five people each, each from five different directions, and search from the periphery all the way to the Devil Beast of Rank Six's territory.
Amongst the thirty people present, nearly half of them were experts under the Fighting Cultivator realm. Other than the three other people present, the rest were all experts at the Fighting Cultivator realm. During the division, Tia Po was prepared to distribute the Fighting Cultivator rankers among the Fighting Infant rankers, so as to balance the strength of each group. However, the Fighting Cultivator rankers all expressed their disapproval.
In their eyes, no matter how strong Qing Lei was, he couldn't be stronger than the Fighting Cultivator. Once they were separated, their fighting strength would be greatly reduced and they would very likely be defeated one by one. Although they really wanted to obtain the Profound Rank and Fighting Technique, they cared more about their own small lives.
Tia Po was the leader of the hunt, but in reality, he was just a guide. Given his strength at the Fighting Cultivator level, there was still quite a distance between him and the others. These powerhouses at the Fighting Cultivator level would not give him face just because he was the leader of the Jungle Wolf Mercenary Group.
The team was divided into three groups according to their level of strength. The Fighting Infant s were divided into groups, the Fighting Cultivator s were divided into groups, and the Fighting Master s were separated into groups.
From the periphery of the devil beast forest, the three groups headed towards the interior of the devil beast forest from three different directions.
Chirp chirp chirp!
A joyous cry reverberated in the small cave. A fist-sized marten ran around excitedly, jumping onto the stone bed and running outside the cave. Finally, it sat in front of the stone bed and stared fixedly at a huge white "cotton candy".
In the middle of the white energy, there sat a handsome young man. The young man's entire body was exuding a powerful energy, and the heat that was rising from his body was converging onto the top of the young man's head. There was a smoke that lingered in the air, and beads of sweat the size of beans slowly formed on the edge of the rosy hall, before slowly rolling down to the ground, and from beginning to end, the young man's breathing had been very calm, as if he hadn't been disturbed by the outside world.
Although he was resting with his eyes closed, his sense of external energy was not reduced in the slightest. As he cultivated further, Qing Lei felt that he was getting closer to the Sky Realm. Even the energy of the Qi of Jun Heaven in his body was gradually replaced by the white energy of the Sky Realm.
The breakthrough was right in front of him!
