Chapter Thirty-Eighth: Taking Personal Risks, Killing the Real Peak
"Coming!"
Qi Hao and Zhao Tiezhu looked at each other and concentrated their attention.
Qi Hao even activated the power of flames, ready to shoot out at any time.
"Junior brother, wait until the demon cultivator enters the formation before taking action."
Zhao Tiezhu was deep in the formation, holding the hammer tightly.
"Senior brother, don't worry, hunting in secret is what I'm best at." Qi Hao responded.
These are all hunting skills given to him by his grandfather.
"Xiao Hao, hunting also requires skills. If you have a head-on conflict with your prey, you are not a good hunter.
A good hunter will never put himself in danger. He will set up the trap first and wait for the prey to sneak into it.
A good hunter is the one who catches the most powerful prey at the minimum cost.
Grandpa believes you will become a good hunter."
Qi Hao's grandfather's words appeared in his mind. He knew that his grandfather was worried about his safety, but his grandfather's words made sense.
Qi Hao also always kept it in mind.
Years of hunting have also made him develop the habit of hunting in secret.
Soon, a figure appeared in Qi Hao's sight.
The figure was extremely fast, almost floating over.
In a few breaths, he stepped into the formation from dozens of meters away.
The demon cultivator was very cautious and kept vigilantly paying attention to the slightest sign of trouble, but did not notice the presence of Qi Hao and the others.
It wasn't until he stepped into the formation that the demon cultivator noticed something unusual.
"kill!"
Zhao Tiezhu suddenly rose up, turned the big hammer, and smashed it.
Before Zhao Tiezhu spoke, Qi Hao's arrow had already been shot.
"There is actually a formation!"
The demon cultivator realized something was wrong and did not retreat, but faced Zhao Tiezhu's hammer.
At the same time, a metal shield appeared in front of his demon cultivator.
The hammer hit the metal shield, and a burst of sparks erupted.
Zhao Tiezhu, who was also shocked, took two steps back and almost dropped the hammer in his hand.
At some point a long sword appeared in the demon cultivator's hand and stabbed towards Zhao Tiezhu's lower body.
The speed was so fast that it was invisible.
Zhao Tiezhu saw a flash of light and hurriedly activated his protective armor.
The long sword easily pierced Zhao Tiezhu's armor and penetrated his thigh.
Zhao Tiezhu grimaced in pain and almost screamed.
"A mere Jade Bone Realm dares to... huh?"
The demon cultivator moved his body instantly, but the flying rocket still pierced his left shoulder, burning a large area of flesh and blood, which was very terrifying.
But even so, it did not harm the demon cultivator.
The demon cultivator quickly pulled out the rocket and threw it in the direction of Qi Hao, hitting the second arrow shot by Qi Hao.
Bang!
The two arrows collided in the air and shattered at the same time.
This made Qi Hao very distressed. One arrow was worth five merit points.
"Senior brother, we must kill him!"
Qi Hao's eyes flashed with anger, and he put three arrows on his bow at the same time.
"You kid, you are really not afraid that I will die here."
Zhao Tiezhu complained.
This demon cultivator is much more powerful than the previous one, both in terms of speed and strength.
Although he was injured, he still felt that he had not used his full strength.
But even so, after hearing Qi Hao's words, Zhao Tiezhu still turned the hammer and smashed it.
The demonic cultivator still did not dodge and let the hammer fall. At the moment when the hammer was about to fall, he used his feet hard and jumped out suddenly.
His body rolled down the mountain road and went straight to where Qi Hao was hiding.
Although Zhao Tiezhu's formation can slow down the speed of the demon cultivator, it cannot completely imprison it.
Moreover, this demon cultivator had obviously seen something. Even while rolling, he had avoided several formations arranged by Qi Hao.
"The cunning prey is able to avoid all my traps."
Qi Hao sighed in his heart, fully understanding that he had underestimated the power of the True Bone Realm monks.
This is why Hong Gu and the other two confused him, making him think that all demonic cultivators in the True Bone Realm have such strength.
But compared to the one in front of me, it is a world of difference.
If Hong Gu and the two join forces, they may not be this person's opponent.
But even so, Qi Hao still didn't take a step back and stared at the demon cultivator coldly.
In fact, the reason he spoke just now was to lure the demon cultivator over. As long as he stepped into a trap, Qi Hao would be sure to kill him.
But now, if Qi Hao retreats, Zhao Tiezhu will be in danger.
Not only Zhao Tiezhu was injured, there were more demon cultivators coming down from the mountain.
Once he fails to kill the demon cultivator, Zhao Tiezhu will be surrounded and must die.
Therefore, this demonic cultivator must be killed.
"There is one last trap, I hope he can't detect it!"
Unknowingly, Qi Hao's palms were covered with sweat, and in this breath, the demon cultivator was less than twenty meters away from Qi Hao.
But at this moment, the demon cultivator stepped on a huge boulder, stepped on a trap, and stepped on a trap.
"shoot!"
At this moment, Qi Hao released three arrows.
Qi Hao did not trigger the flames for these three arrows, and the target was the demon cultivator's head.
There is no need for flames. If he is not sure at such a close distance, there will be no need to use bows and arrows in the future.
Seeing this, the demon cultivator quickly slashed a cross in mid-air with his sword.
Black Demon Kill!
This is a secret method of the Demon Sect, which attaches sword energy and murderous energy to the true energy to kill people from a distance.
In less than a second, Qi Hao and the demon cultivator were seriously injured at the same time.
The demon cultivator couldn't avoid it, and Qi Hao couldn't avoid it either.
At such a close distance, there was no time to escape.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Qi Hao used the Ziyang Breast Mirror to save his life.
However, the Ziyang Breast Guard was shattered and lost its luster.
The demon cultivator was pierced through the head by an arrow and fell into the trap.
"Qi Hao, are you okay?"
Zhao Tiezhu quickly came forward and hit the demon cultivator on the head with a hammer, finishing the blow.
"He was slightly injured, but his life is not in danger. Senior brother, it's time for us to withdraw."
Qi Hao took out his bone flute and summoned two nearby yellow sheep.
At the same time, angry shouts came from the mountain.
"Two little beasts, you actually killed Senior Brother Hantan. I will cut you two into pieces."
Following the sound, several figures came quickly.
It was other demon cultivators who got rid of their opponents and ran down.
"Huh? Those two little guys actually killed a demon cultivator at the peak level of true bones? What is that? A yellow sheep? Or a monster?"
Only then did Elder Taixuan notice it and looked over.
I saw Zhao Tiezhu holding a hammer in one hand and grabbing the yellow sheep in the other. He and Qi Hao jumped on the yellow sheep at the same time and ran down the mountain.
Elder Taixuan exclaimed: "Not bad, not bad. I actually left a way out in advance. I thought the two of them were dead. Now it seems that they are brave and resourceful, and they are two good prospects. It's a pity that I didn't notice it just now.
, I don’t know what method the two of them used to kill the demon cultivator.”
He originally planned to rescue him, but gave up the idea and continued to watch the battle.
