Chapter 69 The Horrible Thunder Ball
2043 Words
The distance of a thousand feet was fleeting. Lin Tian came to the bushes where he had encountered Flame Thunder Pig before and approached it carefully. After about tens of breaths, he went deep into the bushes but didn't find any traces of Flame Thunder Pig.
"Has it gone hunting the prey?" Lin Tian was in doubt.
He exerted the Heavenly Unification Soul Method to reinforce his perception so that he could grasp the spirit of monster beasts in the air.
Flame Thunder Pig could spray fire and release lightning so its spirit was naturally special. In addition, it was a fourth-grade monster beast with strong spirit. Therefore, there would be some spirit remaining in the air. Lin Tian caught this spirit within a moment.
"In the southeast."
Looking up, Lin Tian was a little relieved. When he carried out the task of shade spectre flower before, he got the introduction about the Dark Forest at the Formation Masters' Guild. At the moment, that area featured second-grade monster beasts so it was not that dangerous.
Without hesitation, Lin Tian immediately went southeast.
He kept his speed at a balanced level, neither fast nor slow, and maintained his breath. Soon after, more than a thousand feet away, violent energy fluctuations came from the front.
Because the energy fluctuations came from the place where he wanted to go, Lin Tian didn't avoid them but still moved forward.
After dozens of seconds, Lin Tian stopped. In front of him, several young men were fighting with a third-grade medium monster beast. Lin Tian met one of them once. It was Lyu Sheng who had followed Zhou Hao before.
"Howl!"
With a scream, the third-grade medium monster beast fell into a pool of blood.
At this time, Lyu Sheng also found Lin Tian. He showed a bit surprised expression, and said in a deep voice, "It's you?! You're still alive!" At the beginning, he saw Lin Tian was dragged away by the Centipede Beast and thought that Lin Tian was dead, but soon after, Lin Tian didn't get out of the wild wave formation until staying there for six hours though it was his first time going there. It was then that Lyu Sheng realized that Lin Tian was not dead.
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes and looked at Lyu Sheng.
Lyu Sheng was startled and thought of what happened to Xu Hou. He suddenly showed some fear, "What do you want to do!"
"What are you afraid of? I won't do anything to you," Lin Tian disdained.
With an indifferent glance at Lyu Sheng, Lin Tian left directly. He was not surprised that Lyu Sheng was here. Lyu Sheng was just an ordinary disciple of the Martial Institution. He should have received some tasks for earning some spiritual coins in the Formation Masters' Guild or Treasure Trading Pavilion, and then came to the Dark Forest.
Although Qingfeng Mountain was also a paradise of monster beasts, it couldn't be compared with Dark Forest. After all, Qingfeng Mountain was a place enclosed by the Martial Institution to train its disciples. The diversity of monster beasts in it was nothing compared to that of Dark Forest. Moreover, the precious and rare herbs in Qingfeng Mountain were not as many as in Dark Forest.
In a flash, Lin Tian disappeared in Lyu Sheng's vision.
"Lyu Sheng, who is that guy?" A young man next to Lyu Sheng asked.
"Lin Tian." Lyu Sheng pulled a long face.
Several young men were all a bit amazed, "That Lin Tian who ranked the first among freshmen and the second in Exterior Ministry trial?"
"Yeah."
"Well... It's said that the boy killed Mo Sen of the Mo family. The Mo family are trying their best to kill him. Nevertheless, the boy still dares to go out of Jiuyang Martial Institution. He really has got some nerve," Someone said.
Jiuyang Martial Institution was a natural barrier. Being in Jiuyang Martial Institution, even if the Mo family was a powerful martial family, they didn't dare to rush directly into the Martial Institution to kill Lin Tian.
Lyu Sheng raised his head and looked in the direction Lin Tian left. A dark light flashed in his eyes.
"Let's go back!" Lyu Sheng said coldly.
"Go back?" Someone was confused, "But Lyu Sheng, we are still on our task."
"This task is nothing. Maybe we can get dozens of times more spiritual coins than the reward of this task."
Lyu Sheng smiled coldly.
...
After he walked past Lyu Sheng, Lin Tian kept the same speed, but he exerted the Heavenly Unification Soul Method even faster. His powerful soul perception was all around and followed the spirit of the Flame Thunder Pig.
"Boom!"
A strange bird came down from the sky with sharp eyes like an eagle and pawed at Lin Tian.
This was a third-grade medium monster beast -- Tremendous Flight Bird, which was comparable to a master at the eighth layer of body cultivation.
Lin Tian turned his head, grabbed its claw and threw it backwards fiercely.
"Bang!"
The big bird as heavy as 500 kgs dropped hard, crushing so many old trees.
Without checking whether it was dead, Lin Tian continued to move forward.
After that, about half an hour passed, bursts of burning sensation came from the front, and screams reverberated around.
Hundreds of feet away, a two-foot-tall monster beast was surrounded by a group of middle-aged armored men. The monster beast was full of red upright hair. It unexpectedly looked sharp. The most important thing was that the monster beast's body was surrounded by flames and intertwined with lightning. It was numbingly ferocious.
"Argh!"
Just for a moment, the scream began again, and someone was killed by the monster beast.
Lin Tian took a leap to the branch of a huge tree, and his eyes lit up with delight.
"Flame Thunder Pig, there you are!" Lin Tian said to himself.
In front, dozens of strong men were not weak, but they were much inferior to the Flame Thunder Pig.
Lin Tian didn't care about this. He jumped several times and finally approached the battlefield.
"Clang!"
The long sword appeared in his hand. He struck a rush of sword Qi at the Flame Thunder Pig.
The Flame Thunder Pig felt the pain and roared in pain. It turned around and stared fiercely at Lin Tian with its scarlet demonic eyes.
"Stupid pig, come here and bite me," Lin Tian shouted.
The Flame Thunder Pig, which was comparable to the master at Divine Meridians Stage, could not bear such a provocation. With a roar, it immediately abandoned those tens of middle-aged men and rushed towards Lin Tian, smashing old trees along the way.
Lin Tian was startled. This Flame Thunder Pig was indeed terrifying.
Stepping lightly on the old tree, Lin Tian took a leap and flashed away in the distance.
"Stupid pig, come here," He shouted.
The fourth-grade monster beast Flame Thunder Pig obviously had its own consciousness. After hearing Lin Tian's words, it immediately roared again, opened its mouth and spewed out a turbulent flame, which seemingly twisted the air.
Lin Tian rushed forward, exerting Dual Position Step.
There were too many people here. He wanted to go somewhere there were few people and few monster beasts so that he could bear the thundering blow of the Flame Thunder Pig.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
Exerting Dual Position Step, Lin Tian rushed out for two hundred feet away.
The Flame Thunder Pig was a fourth-grade monster beast whose speed was naturally not slow. It chased after Lin Tian closely.
Not far away, on the battlefield where dozens of strong men fought with the Flame Thunder Pig, they were relieved.
Behind the battlefield stood an old servant and a young man in luxuriant clothes who was about seventeen years old. The old servant asked carefully, "Young Master, are you OK?"
"I am fine!" The young man in traditional clothes shook his head with his eyes shining, looked in the direction that Lin Tian ran, waved and shouted, "Hey, man, you're so awesome. Thank you!"
The voice of the young man was very loud, and the distance between them was not that far. Lin Tian naturally heard it. Lin Tian glanced back at the young man in luxuriant clothes without saying anything. And his speed was even a little faster.
"Boom!"
The Flame Thunder Pig ran towards Lin Tian fiercely, smashing old trees and stirring up sand here and there.
"The fourth-grade monster beasts is really terrifying!" Lin Tian said to himself. If he hadn't reached the second level of Dual Position Step, he wouldn't dare to fight with such a monster beast.
As he ran forward, Lin Tian looked around carefully. About half an hour later, finally, an open sward appeared in front, and there were no other powerful monster beasts around. Lin Tian immediately flashed over.
With a swoosh, he stopped and landed on the sward.
Lin Tian turned to stare at the approaching Flame Thunder Pig and he looked extremely serious.
This was a fourth-grade monster beast! He might die on the spot if anything was wrong.
Roaring, the Flame Thunder Pig finally came near and stared at Lin Tian with a pair of furious eyes.
"Damn pig, let out your thunder!" Lin Tian shouted.
Flame Thunder Pig roared angrily, planed the ground with its two feet, and fiercely collided with Lin Tian.
Lin Tian was speechless. Exerting the Dual Position Step, he took a leap in the air and jumped to the other side.
"Boom!"
A demon fire came, and Lin Tian hurriedly stepped in the air to avoid the fire. However, even though he successfully avoided it, he still felt pain all over his body, and the skin on his chest seemed to be melted away.
"This is way too terrifying." Lin Tian was startled.
If he had been swept by the flame just now, he believed that he would have been unable to fight in an instant.
"So, I can only bear one blow of the damned pig at most," Lin Tian said to himself.
Stepping on Dual Position Step, Lin Tian circled with Flame Thunder Pig on the open sward. He didn't dare to take any other actions but completely relied on the speed of Dual Position Step to avoid the ordinary attack of the Flame Thunder Pig.
"Damned pig. Let out the thunder!"
"Don't you dare let out again? Damned pig!"
"Stupid! No wonder you are a pig!"
Lin Tian shouted constantly.
At this moment, if someone saw this scene, he would be surprised. A martial artist at Body Cultivation Stage dared to provoke the Flame Thunder Pig, a fourth-grade monster beast!
"Stupid pig! I won't play with you anymore if you don't let out the thunder!" Lin Tian snarled again.
It also took physical strength and energy to perform the Dual Position Step. If it went on like this, it would be very disadvantageous for him.
Exerting Dual Position Step, Lin Tian kept swearing.
Another seven minutes had passed. Flame Thunder Pig was finally enraged.
With a roar of rage, the flame of the Flame Thunder Pig had become weaker. Then, the turbulent power of thunder and lightning gathered and made a crackling sound.
"Here we go!"
Seeing this scene, Lin Tian was both startled and delighted.
"Argh!"
There was another angry roar. The eyes of the Flame Thunder Pig were red. A thunder ball with a diameter of about three feet appeared in its mouth. The electric arcs were intertwined and shot at Lin Tian fiercely. Where the thunder ball passed, the air became distorted and the ground became dark as if being scorched by the lightning. A blast of horrifying fluctuation was spread in an instant.
Lin Tian's heart throbbed. Was this the thunder power? It was terrifying and even a little more terrible than the flame power emitted by the Flame Thunder Pig before! Looking at the thunder ball, Lin Tian was lost for a moment. Could he really resist such a terrible thunder attack with his current combat craft?
"I've gone this far! There is no turning back!"
Lin Tian gritted his teeth.
With his eyes sparkling, Lin Tian rushed forward against the thunder ball.
