Hearing Jiang Chuan's voice, Kang Bo did not hesitate. He directly took the Great Xia Type 60 Rocket Launcher off his back.

To avoid damaging the treasures earlier, only Song Zhiyi had used the Type 37 Anti-Materiel Sniper Rifle.

After swiftly aiming at the Wild Boar Demonic Beast, Kang Bo pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The 60-millimeter rocket shot straight toward the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

The leading Wild Boar Demonic Beast reacted quickly and dodged the rocket.

Boom!

The rocket exploded, shrapnel spraying out like a rainstorm.

Two wild boars, each two meters long, were pierced through by the shrapnel and collapsed to the ground.

Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat!

Meng Nanxi and Song Zhiyan drew their rifles and immediately opened fire.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Before the Wild Boar Demonic Beasts could even approach Jiang Chuan and the others, they fell one after another.

"ROAR!!!"

Seeing this, the leading Wild Boar Demonic Beast let out an enraged roar.

Green demonic aura rose from its massive body.

The aura emanating from the Wild Boar Demonic Beast suddenly surged.

"It increased that much? Is this Wild Boar Demonic Beast about to break through to the fourth realm?!" Song Zhiyan's expression changed drastically.

Third-realm demonic beasts and fourth-realm demonic beasts were worlds apart.

Song Zhiyi immediately pulled the trigger, and the bullet sped straight toward the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

Bang!

The green demonic aura, like a wall forged from steel, directly blocked the large-caliber sniper round.

Song Zhiyi's pupils contracted. "Its demonic aura can already resist modern weapons like spiritual power!"

"Let me blast it to the heavens with one shot."

As Kang Bo spoke, he fired another rocket.

Boom!

The rocket burst into smoke and flames, engulfing the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

When the aftershock faded, the Wild Boar Demonic Beast, shrouded in green demonic aura, was still standing there unscathed.

At the same time, its body was swelling at a visible rate.

"Retreat! Retreat, now! This boar demon's demonic aura has condensed into form. It's about to break through to the fourth realm! If we don't leave now, it'll be too late!" Meng Nanxi's eyes were full of panic.

Condensed demonic aura was like a cultivator's spiritual power.

Originally formless and intangible demonic aura transformed into something tangible and substantial.

Not only could it block small- and medium-caliber shells from firearms, but the power of the divine abilities it unleashed would also increase tenfold!

"With two legs, we can't possibly outrun a fourth-realm demonic beast with four legs. The only way now is to kill it!"

A flash of resolve appeared in Jiang Chuan's eyes as he charged straight at the Wild Boar Demonic Beast in the midst of its transformation.

Silver-white Falling Cloud Thunder surged from Jiang Chuan's body and coiled around his great spear.

"Jiang Chuan's right. All we can do now is stake our lives on this!"

The Crimson Treasure Sword at Song Zhiyan's waist shot from its sheath, turning into a streak of light as it flew toward the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

Ring!

Piercing Cloud Startling Thunder!

Facing the threat of death, Jiang Chuan thrust out his great spear. This thrust was the pinnacle he had never reached before.

It was as if a divine thunderbolt from beyond the nine heavens had truly blasted through the clouds and descended into his hands.

Empowered by Falling Cloud Thunder, the great spear pierced straight through the green demonic aura.

Clang!

After piercing the Wild Boar Demonic Beast's skull, Jiang Chuan felt as though he had struck a steel shield. The spearhead was forcibly stopped.

Hearing the sound behind him, Jiang Chuan hurriedly pulled out his great spear.

"ROAR!!!"

The agonized Wild Boar Demonic Beast ignored its transformation and was just about to attack Jiang Chuan when Song Zhiyan's crimson longsword arrived, slashing down at its head.

Sensing the dangerous aura, the Wild Boar Demonic Beast hurriedly dodged.

Splat!

Yet one of its ears was still cleaved off by the crimson longsword.

"Roar!"

One of the Wild Boar Demonic Beast's blade-like tusks, wrapped in green demonic aura, shot straight at the crimson Flying Sword.

Clang!

The crimson Flying Sword collided with the tusk and was sent flying back.

"Roar!"

After knocking away Song Zhiyan's Flying Sword, the Wild Boar Demonic Beast launched its other tusk as well. The two tusks shot toward Jiang Chuan one after the other.

Jiang Chuan thrust out his great spear to meet the first tusk.

Riiip!

Silver-white lightning shot forth, and the spearhead was split in two by the tusk.

"It's actually that sharp!"

Jiang Chuan shuddered in alarm, immediately abandoning the great spear and dodging the tusk with a flash.

Seeing this, Meng Nanxi shouted, "Jiang Chuan! Run!"

"It's too late. I can only fight it head-on!"

Watching the tusk curve around and fly back toward him, Jiang Chuan directly unleashed the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Jiang Chuan used his Divine Sense to create high and low pressure within his dantian. Milky-white spiritual power spun madly, and a howling sound rose from within his dantian.

As he watched the tusk fly at him again, Jiang Chuan struck out with his palm. The Heavenly Lament Divine Wind howled out from his dantian and surged along his arm.

The pure-white Astral Wind formed from spiritual power, like dozens or hundreds of blades, met the tusk head-on.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The two tusks wrapped in green demonic aura were sent flying by the pure-white Astral Wind, which then continued onward without losing momentum and slashed toward the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

The Heavenly Lament Divine Wind, which could easily tear apart several Iron Men cast from steel, sliced through the green demonic aura and struck the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

Splat! Splat! Splat!

Bright red blood sprayed out, exposing stark white bones, and the Wild Boar Demonic Beast let out a cry of agony.

"What kind of divine ability is that?!" Meng Nanxi was stunned.

Song Zhiyan, Song Zhiyi, and the others looked as though they had been turned to stone.

A third-realm cultivator seriously injuring a fourth-realm demonic beast with one move was simply the stuff of fantasy, yet it had appeared vividly before their eyes!

The impact it gave them was immense!

Not only Song Zhiyan and the others—even Jiang Chuan was stunned by the might of the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind.

He had known that the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind was his strongest divine ability, but he had estimated that it should not be much stronger than Falling Cloud Thunder.

The Wild Boar Demonic Beast that he had failed to seriously injure with his great spear and Falling Cloud Thunder had now been grievously wounded with ease by the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind.

This greatly exceeded Jiang Chuan's expectations!

Could it be that I still haven't cultivated Falling Cloud Thunder to Completion? Or perhaps the Falling Cloud Thunder I cultivated has only reached Minor Accomplishment?

Before Jiang Chuan could think further, the heavily wounded Wild Boar Demonic Beast charged at him in a frenzy.

Clang!

The Next Moment, under Song Zhiyan's control, the crimson longsword flew over once more.

Following the wounds carved out by the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind, it stabbed straight into the Wild Boar Demonic Beast's body.

The excruciating pain brought the Wild Boar Demonic Beast to a halt.

Seizing the opportunity, Jiang Chuan unleashed the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind again.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The pure-white Astral Wind slashed straight down at the Wild Boar Demonic Beast.

Splat! Splat! Splat!

The Wild Boar Demonic Beast's head instantly burst into pieces, and its massive body crashed to the ground.

Taking in the scent of blood in the air, Jiang Chuan let out a long breath.

The Wild Boar Demonic Beast was the strongest opponent he had encountered since becoming a cultivator.

If the Heavenly Lament Divine Wind's power had not exceeded his expectations and inflicted heavy damage on the Wild Boar Demonic Beast, the outcome would have been hard to say.

"Jiang Chuan, are you all right?!"

Meng Nanxi, Song Zhiyi, and the others ran over and asked anxiously.

"I'm fine." Jiang Chuan shook his head.

"What divine ability did you cultivate for it to have such immense power?" Meng Nanxi asked curiously.

"It's the second divine ability, Heavenly Lament Divine Wind, from the Wrath of the Firmament you gave me." Jiang Chuan did not hide it.

"The Heavenly Lament Divine Wind wielded by a third-realm cultivator is already this terrifyingly powerful!"

Meng Nanxi looked astonished. Then her dark eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Strange! Didn't Grandfather say that there was no cultivation technique in his library that could compare to my Nine Tribulations Immortal Canon? Yet even its second divine ability has such horrifying power. Could Grandfather have lied to me?"
