The dazzling sunlight pierced through the green leaves, creating coin-like patterns of light and shadow in the jungle.

The soil, bathed in light and shadow, was still slightly moist.

It seems like just a short while ago, a rainstorm swept through.

Two figures quickly crossed the jungle, leaving a trail of shadows behind.

"There's a Lightning-Attracting Wood on the cliff face. Whenever it rains heavily, the Thunder Roc will arrive!" Ye Haicheng's words echoed in Ye Jingcheng's mind.

Ye Jingcheng was taken aback when he heard this.

But he soon realized that drawing lightning might be Thunder Roc's cultivation method.

To deal with this late-stage Tier 3 Thunder Roc Demon, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng naturally couldn't enter its lair. Instead, they should form Array and wait for it to come to them.

A powerful demon in the late stage of the third tier possesses intelligence comparable to that of a normal cultivator.

However, their habits are still quite easy to counter.

This has nothing to do with Divine Sense. After all, whether it is a cultivator or Spirit Beast, they are most likely to make mistakes in the areas they are most familiar with.

"We can't go any further, or we'll enter Thunder Roc's detection range!" Ye Haicheng said.

Ye Jingcheng then took out the Stone Spirit Grotto-Heaven and put Ye Haicheng inside.

He then activated the Treasure-Linking Art, and with the blessing of the Spirit Treasure, Ye Jingcheng's aura was concealed to a minimum under his Divine Sense.

Donning the Five-Colored Dao Robe crafted by Chu Yanqing, he swiftly sped towards the cliff face.

After about half an hour, they finally reached the edge of the cliff. Ye Jingcheng then used Earth Escape Technique that allows one to escape into the mountaintop and find a shallow cave on the cliff face.)

This cave offers a perfect view of the blackened Lightning-Attracting Wood.

This Lightning-Attracting Wood is not a specific type of spiritual wood Cultivation World.

Rather, it refers to a general term for spirit trees that are frequently struck by lightning but never lose their vitality.

The one in front of us is only about ten feet tall and is very conspicuous on the cliff face.

Covered with a layer of dark bark, this spirit wood is also extremely suitable for forging Fire Spirit armor, or forging flying swords with lightning Wood Attribute.

In fact, if this spirit wood core were intact, it could be used as material for Ye Jingcheng's Blackwood Disk.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng couldn't possibly go forward to investigate at this moment, lest he alert the enemy!

After observing the surroundings, he began to take out the array flags and set them up one by one.

The commotion caused by these array flags was not significant; even if they landed in the void, they would disappear into the air.

This is a Fourth Stage low-grade array plate given to him by Ye Xuefan. Although it is only Fourth Stage low-grade Array, it can be used to trap Thunder Roc and then kill him when the opportunity arises.

Therefore, the requirements for Array are not particularly stringent.

After setting up the Array, Ye Jingcheng took out the Bronze Ancient Lamp and concealed his aura to a minimum before releasing Ye Haicheng.

Ye Haicheng was also struck by the eeriness of the Bronze Ancient Lamp, but remained silent.

The two do have a good understanding of each other.

Thunder Roc Valley is a windy place, and it is currently summer with lots of rain. Ye Jingcheng is not afraid of thunderstorms, so he avoids too many intervals, which would delay him for too long.

The next day, around 3 PM, the sky became darker than expected.

Dark Cloud began to gather in the sky, resembling an octopus spewing out a glob of ink.

The atmosphere in the air grew increasingly oppressive.

Birds flew by in the distance, their distinctive calls echoing through the air.

As the Lei Yun gathered in the sky to a certain extent, lightning began to strike.

A long cry rang out, followed by a large blue roc, accompanied by dazzling lightning, landing on the Lightning-Attracting Wood.

The Lightning-Attracting Wood suddenly became shaky, as if it would collapse at any moment under the pressure of the Thunder Roc.

Under Ye Jingcheng's perception, Thunder Roc also began a special breathing pattern, revealing that Thunder Roc could actually breathe.

As the breathing technique was activated, a surge of Thunder Attribute Spiritual Qi began to condense, and the thick Dark Cloud miraculously moved towards this direction.

The next moment, a deafening roar of lightning followed.

A long arc of electricity swept across the sky, striking Thunder Roc and the Lightning-Attracting Wood like a golden chain.

But all that could be seen were the dazzling spiritual light emanating from Thunder Roc's spirit feathers, and the black Lightning-Attracting Wood bark was also flashing with arcs of lightning, as if it would soon fall silent.

Thunder Roc let out a melodious chirp, clearly very excited.

And at this moment, the breathing technique has reached its most crucial stage.

"Grandpa, right now!" Ye Jingcheng shouted softly, and countless array flags stretched out into a single line, transforming into a golden spirit tower.

The very center of the spirit tower enveloped the Thunder Roc.

Ye Haicheng's body instantly condensed dazzling armor patterns, clearly indicating that he had immediately Spirit Control Turtle Ancestor.

As Body Cultivator, his primary goal was to get close, even if the opponent was a powerful Spirit Beast.

"Chirp~ Chirp!" The Thunder Roc was startled and chirped repeatedly.

Its wings flapped wildly.

It was very fast; according to Ye Jingcheng's perception, it was probably much faster than the Golden Falcon's normal flight.

They also used Lightning Release.

However, that Array was precisely designed to prevent Thunder Roc from escaping using his lightning escape technique.

Thunder Roc crashed into the tower of the Array, letting out a mournful cry.

The golden tower shadow also cracked upon impact.

Surprisingly, Thunder Roc's physical body was too strong, and he was somewhat unable to withstand it.

"Thunder Roc seems very weak!" Ye Jingcheng exclaimed excitedly.

At the same time, he also raised an Azure Spirit Mirror in his hand.

As the Azure Spirit Mirror emitted its azure light, Thunder Roc was instantly trapped within it.

However, as a late-stage third-tier demon, Thunder Roc's physical strength was naturally formidable. Even though he was injured, he was still swept by lightning, causing the azure light to shatter instantly as if a mirror had been broken.

But even this pause was enough for Ye Jingcheng. He had already turned his hand, and all four beasts— the Crimson Flame Fox, the Golden-Scaled Beast, the Golden Falcon Jade-Scale Flood Dragon— emerged!

As soon as the Golden-Scaled Beast appeared, the Earth-Scale Seal landed on Thunder Roc's head, and the yellow spiritual light caused Thunder Roc's body to fall downwards again.

The effect of this Earth-Scale Seal is the effect of gravity. The Thunder Roc is so large that it is naturally not light, and the gravity it experiences is also enormous.

That's why it feels so weightless.

As for the Golden-Scaled Beast, what it is skilled at is its continuous Golden Light Earth Spike Technique.

They had already formed a row, waiting as if ready to pierce Thunder Roc's demonic body at any moment.

At this moment, Thunder Roc's expression clearly became anxious. He spat out his demon core and began to activate the lightning feathers all over his body, which shot out in all directions as they were activated.

These lightning feathers were densely packed and extremely powerful.

Even when Ye Haicheng's condensed tortoise shell was struck by one of the lightning feathers, it was as if struck by a bolt of lightning, instantly spreading out a huge net of lightning, and the entire tortoise shell's Spirit Patterns turned black.

The Golden-Scaled Beast's Earth-Scale Seal was also blasted open by several of the lightning feathers, and the Earth-Scale Seal was blown apart.

Thunder Roc immediately let out a long cry, as if to declare its majesty.

However, Ye Jingcheng's attacks were far from over.

The Crimson Flame Fox transformed into eight spirit shadows, their eerie eyes glowing crimson, while the Jade Jade-Scale Flood Dragon in the distance unleashed its Water Dragon Technique.

Then, purple Purple Moon Heart Flame erupted all over Thunder Roc's body.

Thunder Roc cried out in pain, but when it came to its senses, it was met with the Silver Moon tail blade of the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon and the swooping sword of the Golden Falcon.

One piece of gold and one piece of white completely covered the entire void.

No matter how powerful Thunder Roc was, he was cut into three pieces by that single sword strike.

"This..." Ye Haicheng was the most surprised.

In all that fighting, the only thing he accomplished was acting as a human shield, taking a few hits.

The rest were killed by Ye Jingcheng's four Spirit Beast before he could even find an opportunity to attack.

"Grandpa, we might have struck it rich! This is a female Peng. The fact that she is so weak but has no wounds means she has probably just laid her spirit egg!" Ye Jingcheng said again.

His eyes were also full of excitement.

"Indeed!" Ye Haicheng didn't know what to say at that moment, so he could only nod.

Now he realizes that his arrival was completely unnecessary. With Ye Jingcheng's current strength, even a late-stage Purple Mansion from the Taiyi Sect would probably be no match for Ye Jingcheng.

After all, Ye Jingcheng still had three extremely powerful natal magic Law Treasure that he hadn't used yet.

It merely assisted in activating the Array.

Moreover, the Spirit Beast seemed unsatisfied, suggesting they still had many tricks up their sleeves.

Ye Jingcheng put Thunder Roc's corpse into his Storage Bag, and in front of Ye Haicheng, he tore off some Spirit Beast meat and fed it to several Spirit Beasts.

In fact, this kind of Thunder Roc meat is very precious. If it were Ye Haicheng, he might not be willing to give it to other types of Demon Beast.

Only Ye Jingcheng didn't think it was a big deal.

After feeding the Spirit Beast, Ye Jingcheng also fed some to the Turtle Ancestor beside him, and then went to collect the Lightning-Attracting Wood by the roots.

This Lightning-Attracting Wood is a thousand years old. He glanced at it and found that the core of the wood was relatively well preserved.

However, whether or not it can be refined still needs to be asked of Ye Haicheng.

But their most important task was to reach Thunder Roc 'Thunder Roc cave abode, find the treasures cave abode, and then escape.

This isn't Ye Family territory, and the Silver Moon Demon King isn't far away either.

Although Thunder Roc is not a member of the Silver Moon Demon King's clan, the appearance of human cultivators in a region would still enrage him.

Ye Jingcheng unleashed his Divine Sense without restraint at this moment.

He swiftly swept across all the caves in the valleys, found a Thunder Roc's lair, and then stepped directly onto the Golden Falcon, swooping down.

With a terrifying howling wind, they arrived at Thunder Roc's cave in an instant.

I also saw a Thunder Roc egg and quite a few Lei Yuan Grasses.

Ye Jingcheng was delighted to find the Lei Yuan Grass, as it was spirit medicine for refining second-tier Thunder Spirit Pills.

It's no longer very useful against the Hidden-Wing Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle, but it's a great benefit to his army of Thunder Rhinoceros Beetle.

Ye Jingcheng transplanted all the Lei Yuan Grass into the Grotto-Heaven.

The only drawback is that this Thunder Roc's spirit egg only has three chances to advance.

In other words, Thunder Roc's bloodline limit is at most the Golden Core Early Stage, and he still needs a lot of fortuitous opportunity.

Unless this Thunder Roc egg can also possess a breathing technique like the Thunder Roc that was slain.

Otherwise, its potential would be fixed, and it would be useless to Ye Jingcheng. However, there are people in his Ye Family who need it.

After Ye Jingcheng put away the Thunder Roc Egg, he and Ye Haicheng quickly retreated.

Halfway back, Ye Haicheng entered his Grotto-Heaven, while Ye Jingcheng was covered by One-Breath Blood Soul Pearl and wrapped in a Five-Colored Dao Robe.

Even with the Demon King roaring angrily behind him, he felt extremely calm.

In a cold, mountain lake, the reflection of the mountains and water remained perfectly still.

Like a smooth mirror, there was no major disturbance.

The entire lakeside area was extremely tranquil.

If you look out from Linghu Lake, you can see endless grasslands.

The area is abundant with medicinal herbs.

However, at this moment, a light mist rose above the spirit lake, and in the center of the mist, a spirit rat with large Jade Ring lay on the lake surface, gnawing on some spirit blood in its mouth.

The Jade Ring Rat didn't drink all of this spiritual blood at once, but instead drank and spat it out repeatedly, letting it fall onto a lotus leaf.

The stench of blood was still strong, carried on the breeze.

Ye Jingcheng, who was hiding under the lake and covered by the Bronze Ancient Lamp, sensed movement in the distant Green Wind Wolf Plain.

This made him frown.

Ye Jingcheng came here alone, naturally for the sake of the Azure Hidden Deer.

When not using its spiritual power, this Azure Hidden Deer demon is completely hidden in the forest.

It won't be easy for Ye Jingcheng to Azure Hidden Deer and obtain its blood.

Moreover, the Azure Hidden Deer is somewhat similar to the Four-Colored Cloud Deer, being omnivorous.

There was no particular spirit medicine or Spirit Beast meat that they craved.

Ye Jingcheng could only extract the blood from the Azure Deer.

The Azure Hidden Deer demon, having lost its offspring, must be sensitive to the aura of this blood.

At that very moment, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon lying beside him suddenly twitched its tail.

The next moment, it transformed into an arrow and shot out.

Its water escape technique reached its peak speed at this moment.

After all, the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's forte is water escape techniques.

As the Water Dragon Technique and the Silver Moon Blade Slash landed, a green-skinned spirit deer the size of a water buffalo appeared in the void.

This spirit deer has no antlers, but its ears are quite large, and it is extremely clever.

There is a large patch of dense wood grain on its forehead, which, like the Crimson Flame Beast, suggests that its forehead is anything but ordinary.

Even though the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon was so fast, the Azure Hidden Deer reacted just as quickly, instantly creating a wooden shield to block the water dragon technique and then using the thrust to escape out of the spirit lake.

He also managed to dodge the Silver Moon Blade's slash.

However, Ye Jingcheng had already anticipated this scene. As the array flags were activated, the golden spirit tower Array once again covered the Azure Hidden Deer.

Furthermore, Ye Jingcheng also simultaneously activated the Azure Spirit Mirror.

However, the azure beam of light did not restrain the Azure Hidden Deer at all. Instead, a green tree appeared around it, absorbing all the azure light, even the yellow gravity light of the Earth-Scale Seal.

After absorbing most of it, it transformed into an incredibly heavy wooden puppet, which went to defend against the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon.

And it was this delay that caused purple flames to fill the eyes of the Crimson Flame Fox, and the Azure Hidden Deer finally fell under the illusion.

At the same time, Ye Jingcheng played the Mystic Silver Jade Flute and threw out the third-grade mid-level Law Treasure, the Violet Gold Ring.

Once Xiao Yin and Zi Huo were together, the spiritual light of the Azure Hidden Deer immediately dissipated, but the intense pain made it quickly realize what was happening.

With two "yo-yo" sounds!

Her body also began to become transparent.

But at the last moment, he was bound by the Violet Gold Ring.

Ye Jingcheng then took out the Ice Spirit Pearl, and with a phoenix cry, froze the Azure Hidden Deer into an ice coffin.

At the same time, Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's Moon Slash finally landed.

The Azure Hidden Deer died instantly, beyond any doubt.

As soon as the Azure Hidden Deer died, Ye Jingcheng collected all of its spiritual blood.

Its Essence Blood can be used to refine the Four-Color Pill, while ordinary deer blood can be used to treat injuries.

It contains extremely rich Wood Attribute spiritual energy.

It is also quite valuable.

Although Ye Jingcheng has a lot of Spirit Stone now, he also has quite a few money-consuming beasts.

Naturally, not a single piece could be missed. After taking the blood and demon core, Ye Jingcheng did not take any more of the Spirit Beast meat this time, but instead put it all into the Grotto-Heaven.

Then, riding his Golden Falcon, he quickly flew into the sky.

The pack of Green Wind Wolf was chasing them from afar.

Although the Green Wind Wolf can also fly, its speed is naturally not as fast as the Golden Falcon. Ye Jingcheng also activated the Bronze Ancient Lamp to conceal his aura.

Only the scent of the Golden Falcon remained!

His current location is extremely close to Red Glow Ridge, and only here can he escape the domineering pack of Green Wind Wolves.
