Once the decision was made to proceed, Jiang Li unleashed his异火.
Simultaneously, the【Xing Chen Dui Ti Jue】activated. Jiang Li's body became entwined with starlight, and holding his spirit sword, he launched an assault on the ferocious beasts.
Although Jiang Li had not learned profound sword techniques, he relied on the power of his 异火 and the sharpness of his spirit sword.
Under Jiang Li's fierce onslaught, these ferocious beasts had virtually no power to resist.
Moreover, Jiang Li possessed the Innate Body, making his spiritual power recovery astonishingly fast. Coupled with the Saint-grade top-tier cultivation technique【Qian Kun Zao Hua Jue】, Jiang Li was like a tireless killing machine.
With his extraordinary mental power, every move of these ferocious beasts was easily controlled by Jiang Li, making it impossible for them to inflict any substantial damage.
Not to mention that Jiang Li was wearing the spirit armor obtained from Li Qin; a few attacks couldn't even break through his defenses.
Jiang Li's slaughter was like a waltz of sharp blades, a truly pleasing sight.
Despite the astonishing number of surrounding ferocious beasts, they were still killed by Jiang Li at an extremely rapid pace.
Not far away, Li Qin watched Jiang Li fighting ferociously, her eyes filled with admiration.
"I'll just watch, I'll just watch, I won't fall for him," Li Qin's cheeks flushed slightly.
"But Jiang Li is so handsome, and his strength is much greater than that of the disciples in our sect," Li Qin couldn't help but think.
Thinking of the disciples in her own sect who constantly fawned over her, Li Qin pouted. They lacked backbone; Jiang Li was much better.
Although Jiang Li's current realm was only at the fifth level of Dan Yuan, with the enhancement of various powers, the damage he casually dealt was no less than that of an ordinary seventh-level Dan Yuan expert.
Combined with such a terrifying 异火, even ninth-level Dan Yuan experts would have to be cautious.
The higher a cultivator's realm, the more difficult it became to fight across levels.
After all, the strength and quantity of spiritual power were fixed. Without the augmentation of powerful martial arts and various treasures, it was nearly impossible to fight across realms.
An hour later, all the ferocious beasts were slain by Jiang Li.
The scent of blood and burnt flesh permeated the entire valley.
The surroundings of the valley presented a scene akin to an Asura's hell.
Jiang Li breathed a heavy sigh of relief, then took out the spirit pills from his spatial ring to restore his spiritual power and stamina.
After recovering a considerable amount of spiritual power and stamina, the two continued towards the jungle on the other side of the valley.
"It's up to you next!" Jiang Li said, looking at the terrifying aura emanating from around the jungle.
At this moment, the jungle was filled with a deadly,肅殺 (sù shā -肅殺 meaning grim, murderous, or chilling) intent.
The surrounding plants and flowers had lost their vitality under the oppressive aura.
"Release my spiritual power!" Li Qin pouted.
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. Could this girl have deliberately chosen this place just to have him release her spiritual power?
"If you don't release my spiritual power, how can I break the formation?" Li Qin's eyes flashed with cunning, and she continued.
"If there are no treasures inside, I'll strip you and throw you into the beast pile!" Jiang Li snorted coldly, then released Li Qin's spiritual power.
Li Qin's face immediately turned glum. "Little devil, little devil, you're too wicked..."
Following this, Li Qin began to diligently break the formation.
Li Qin was indeed a formation genius. The terrifying aura surrounding them slowly dissipated under the impact of her spiritual power.
The two slowly walked deeper into the jungle.
The depths of the jungle were silent. The surrounding trees were lush and full of vitality.
Despite the scenery of blooming flowers, they could feel an extremely sharp aura emanating from the depths of the jungle.
That aura seemed capable of piercing through everything.
"That treasure should be a spirit treasure!" Li Qin said excitedly, her eyes full of anticipation.
Jiang Li narrowed his eyes. He also felt the sharp aura coming from afar.
It seemed to be a powerful spirit treasure.
"Let's go quickly, I wonder what grade of spirit treasure it is!" Li Qin urged, seeming even more anxious than Jiang Li.
The surroundings of the jungle remained eerily quiet, with a faint fragrance everywhere.
Yet, there was not a single sound of animal calls.
The silence was terrifying...
"Wait!" Jiang Li grabbed Li Qin's hand. The pervasive silence made Jiang Li feel that something was amiss.
It was too quiet.
Jiang Li... he, he's holding my hand...
Just as Li Qin was about to say something, she suddenly felt her body stiffen. It was as if something had locked onto her, and a chilling sensation spread throughout her entire body.
"Swish!!!"
With a sharp whistling sound.
From the nearby jungle, a dark shadow carrying a terrifying aura lunged out.
Jiang Li had no time to think. He hugged Li Qin and dodged to the side.
"Roar!!!"
The shadow that missed its target let out a fierce roar.
The sound solidified into waves of sonic energy, which instantly swept out, filling the entire jungle.
Li Qin's mind buzzed, her body trembling uncontrollably, as if she had suffered severe damage from the powerful sonic waves.
Holding Li Qin, Jiang Li's spiritual power surged. His face pale, he looked at a massive demon wolf with three eyes not far away.
Jiang Li had sensed the danger beforehand, but he was still stunned by the sudden sonic wave.
Fortunately, Jiang Li's mental power far surpassed that of ordinary people, so he wasn't paralyzed by the sonic wave like Li Qin.
It's a Three-Eyed Demon Wolf!!!
The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf was an elite among third-tier ferocious beasts, its swift steps and sharp claws its powerful weapons.
The third eye on its head could emit intense sonic waves in conjunction with its roar, making it extremely formidable.
Ordinary individuals with weak mental power would lose their combat ability upon the first sonic wave impact.
The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf now stared at Jiang Li and Li Qin, drool dripping from its mouth, its eyes filled with bloodthirsty scarlet hues.
"Swish!!!"
The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf attacked Jiang Li again, its sharp claws aimed directly at his body.
Jiang Li, holding Li Qin with his left hand and his spirit sword in his right, was enveloped in a ferocious aura.
The moment the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf charged, Jiang Li had already used【Ling She Bu】(Spirit Snake Step) to dodge.
At the same time, Jiang Li unleashed the Demonic Flame True Fire.
The Demonic Flame True Fire erupted from Jiang Li's body, directly blasting towards the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf.
The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf instantly let out a pained howl. A large patch of its black fur was scorched bare.
Jiang Li pressed his advantage, using his agile footwork to charge towards the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf.
"Roar!!!"
The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf let out another fierce roar. The powerful sonic wave swept through the entire jungle once more.
Furthermore, this sonic wave attack was even more ferocious than the previous one.
Under the terrifying sonic wave, Li Qin, held in Jiang Li's arms, directly lost consciousness.
