Heavy rain poured down on the mountains, electric snakes danced wildly in the dark clouds, and thunder rumbled.
Liu Xiaolou sat under the canopy of the tree, the sound of drums and flutes was majestic and passionate amidst the thunder, and Spirit Leopard soul shadow was swaying in the wind and rain.
This spirit leopard's talent Divine Ability is the power of thunder and lightning. During a year-long exploration, Liu Xiaolou has discovered that the right time to practice spirit leopard training during thunderstorms is that every time thunder comes and lightning shines, a little of the thunder and lightning power will be absorbed by the soul shadow, transformed and retained.
Another three months have passed, and this Spirit Leopard soul shadow has grown to more than six feet long and two feet high. Although it is very different from its "real form" and can be recognized as a shadow at a glance, it is extremely lifelike. Not only the hair is visible, but also the faint blue light in the eyes appears, making it look like the spirit leopard has been reborn.
After practicing until now, this Spirit Leopard soul shadow has begun to possess some fighting skills. Even though it is a soul shadow, it can attack people with strong winds. Its fangs and claws can also hurt people. Its sweeping tail can cut off a tree trunk as thick as three fingers. From time to time, thunder and lightning can be heard from the leopard tail, which has a numbing effect when it touches the skin.
When Liu Xiaolou first played Wulong Mountain, with his Qi Refining second layer's strength, he was really capable of fighting against this Spirit Leopard soul shadow.
A soul shadow has the power to fight, which is very mysterious to say. I have to sigh that some of Badong Cultivation World's Taoisms do have merits and are well-deserved as one of the great ways.
Let Spirit Leopard soul shadow help us fight, it's definitely not ready yet. This is a long-term training process, but the soul shadow has taken shape, and it's time to escape.
He came to the edge of the canopy and patiently waited for the opportunity. At the same time, he took out another magic weapon in Universe Bag - Obscuring Jade Slip and wore it on his body. This piece of jade was seized from Tianmu Mountain Second Young Master Lu, the younger brother of Lu Yuanlang. At that time, this piece of Obscuring Jade Slip was used to avoid Divine Sense patrolling the mountain of the Qingyu Sect. However, when he used it to try to escape last year, it did not escape the detection of Tree Demon. This time he wore it anyway, hoping that it could at least have some effect, even if it was Divine Sense that confused Tree Demon?
A thunder shook the mountains, and a long electric snake stretched out from southwest to northeast, piercing the sky. Liu Xiaolou, who had been preparing for a long time, saw the opportunity. The sharp sound of drums and flutes sounded, and Spirit Leopard soul shadow transformed from the flute and rushed wildly outside.
At the same time, Liu Xiaolou's true energy was flowing, tiptoeing, and rushing outward.
Qi Refining tenth layer's cultivation speed has reached a new level compared to the eighth level, at least 20% faster!
The soil shook, and several vines burst out of the ground, rolling towards Spirit Leopard soul shadow, entangling Soul Shadow's limbs and tail. The soul shadow burst into lightning, burning sparks on the vines, struggling hard. Unfortunately, this Spirit Leopard soul shadow was too weak and did not cause any damage to the vine. In the blink of an eye, it was tightly entangled and pulled back.
Liu Xiaolou originally had no intention of relying on the soul shadow to fight Tree Demon. What he wanted was for the soul shadow to attract Tree Demon's attention and gain opportunities for himself. For this, he could give up the soul shadow that had been refined for a year!
His body jumped out quickly. At this moment, he was extremely eager for the free world in front of him.
His ankles suddenly tightened, and a strong force surged in, pulling Liu Xiaolou back. Liu Xiaolou was in a hurry, Three Xuan Sword took action, and the three sword lights quickly turned into sword flowers and rolled towards the vines that entangled him.
The benefit of the great advancement in cultivation is that the sword rays are also stronger. Three limp sword rays quickly rotated and twisted, and finally broke a vine. This was the first time he had wrenched the tough vines, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, but the joy did not last for two breaths, as more vines wrapped around him. He tried to block it with Glazed Shield, but there were too many vines that wrapped around him, and they tied him tightly with Glazed Shield and dragged him back.
In a hurry, Liu Xiaolou took out the formation disk. This was a helpless move, but unexpectedly it had an effect.
The vines that tied him suddenly became chaotic. Some of them loosened and fluttered around him in confusion, appearing to be clueless. Others were tied tighter, as if they didn't realize that they had tied him up, and they became tighter and tighter, until his tongue came out.
More vines sprouted out of the ground, surrounding him outside the range of the formation, weaving tight fences one after another, trapping him within the fence.
If he strangled him again, he would be strangled to death. Liu Xiaolou had no choice but to withdraw the formation. As soon as the formation dispersed, the vines immediately found Liu Xiaolou, circled him countless times, like a silkworm chrysalis, dragged him back and hung him under the tree.
He hung like this for seven whole days. At a certain moment, the "Silkworm Chrysalis" suddenly let go, and the vines retracted. Liu Xiaolou fell head first and fell to the mud. After another moment, his mind gradually regained consciousness.
Thinking about this escape, he probably understood a few things:
First, Spirit Leopard soul shadow is valid. Tree Demon will also judge the soul shadow as a living thing and separate vines to block it;
Secondly, the formation is effective. Tree Demon's IQ is obviously higher than that of the Spirit Leopard, so he will be confused by the formation;
Thirdly, although Tree Demon punished himself severely, he still had no idea of killing or eating himself;
Fourth, this time it was definitely proven that Tree Demon not only relied on Divine Sense to detect movement, but also had "eyes" and could also rely on "eyes" to judge the movements of prey, so Obscuring Jade Slip did not play any role;
Fifth, my idea of escape is still effective. At least the distance to escape-the air distance is far greater than before. The biggest difficulty is how to deal with the large number of vines. If I can refine ten soul shadows, will I have a chance?
It's so difficult to refine just one soul shadow, but how easy is it to refine ten? Will it take ten years?
Not to mention the question of how long it will take and where to absorb the soul, this question makes people scratch their heads. Not all living beings can be used to ingest souls, not spirit beasts and spirit insects, and the ingested souls cannot be refined.
Liu Xiaolou carefully thought about the way out, but he couldn't think of any. He could only circle around these two acres of land, walking back and forth. For the next three months, he was still trapped here without any spiritual stones, and his progress in cultivation almost stopped. He could only rely on the berries and fat insects occasionally thrown over by Tree Demon to replenish his spiritual power. However, it would take less than thirty or fifty years to reach the tenth level. As for Foundation Establishment, he didn't even dare to think about it.
He still insists on practicing Spirit Leopard soul shadow once in the morning and evening. Although he can't see any big effect, it has become the only way to pass the boring time.
Although Hundred Thousand Great Mountains was in the south, the four seasons were not distinct, but as the weather became less hot, especially when the mornings and evenings gradually became cooler, he could still tell that the second winter he was trapped here was coming.
He didn't know how many times he kowtowed to Tree Demon and bowed down devoutly. He had reached the point of prostrating himself, but Tree Demon had no intention of letting him go. The spiritual fruits and spiritual insects that were fed to him increased a bit, allowing him to gain more or less Dian Dian improvement in his cultivation. Even so, after three months, this little increase in spiritual power did not even open up a single acupuncture point.
Until one afternoon, when he was sitting under a tree in a daze, his ears suddenly moved, as if he heard someone speaking.
At first he thought it was his hallucination, but soon, the voices got closer and closer, and two people walked out of the woods opposite.
One man and one woman!
Liu Xiaolou couldn't restrain his emotions and burst into tears!
