168: He killed Leopard Head in a fit of rage!

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed.

His Heavenly Thunder Light Falcon's vision also lost track of that faint purple shadow.

It was as if that leopard had truly evaporated from this world.

But he could clearly sense a faint presence of life, along with extremely subtle Source Power fluctuations, still lingering in a corner of the canyon.

However, this presence and these fluctuations were cleverly concealed by a layer of distorted spatial power, like looking through frosted glass, blurry and indistinct.

“Interesting…” Lu Yuan mused to himself.

The Frost Flame Power within him circulated quietly.

Ice-blue and crimson Source Power, like two intertwined dragons, spiraled and accelerated within his sea of Source Power.

A strange perceptive ability spread out from his glabella.

In the depths of his pupils, a hint of deep blue and a hint of blood-red bloomed silently, then vanished in an instant!

The surrounding world, in his eyes, seemed to have become somewhat different.

In a flash, the Source Power lingering in the void, those spatial folds invisible to the naked eye, were now revealed in minute detail, with nowhere to hide!

He “saw” it!

In the depths of the canyon, about fifty meters to the front left, was a seemingly unremarkable massive rock wall.

The surface of the rock wall was covered with an extremely thin film of spatial energy, almost fused with the rock itself.

Beneath that film was the Void Shadow Stealth Leopard!

It was curled up there, its body color perfectly blended with the rock, even its breathing becoming almost inaudible.

If Lu Yuan hadn't fully activated his perception and buffs, he would have had no way of discovering its existence!

“It’s there!”

Lu Yuan suddenly raised his hand, pointing at the rock wall, his voice resolute!

“Prepare to attack!”

Raimond and the others were startled by his words, all looking in the direction Lu Yuan pointed.

There, apart from a bare rock wall, there was nothing.

“Lu Yuan? Are you sure?”

“That… that’s just a rock!”

“Junior Schoolmate, could it be that you’re too nervous and saw wrong?”

Qin Feng even sensed carefully for a while, still shaking his head: “No discovery.”

Only Raimond’s gaze darted back and forth between Lu Yuan and that rock wall.

“Listen to him!” Raimond gritted his teeth, making a decision, “Everyone, focus your ultimate attacks on that rock wall!”

Although he also felt Lu Yuan’s judgment was a bit outlandish, at this moment, he chose to believe!

“Yes!”

Despite their minds being full of doubts, the team members immediately sprang into action.

Raimond took a deep breath, his lightning battle blade held high, as furious lightning-elemental Source Power rapidly gathered!

“Thunderous Nine Heavens, Myriad Jun Annihilation!”

“Thunderous Might!!!”

Shi Tai roared, throwing out a card, summoning a massive stone shield, and infusing it with Source Power, causing the shield's surface to glow with an earthy yellow light. He then slammed the shield into the rock wall like a battering ram!

Lin Wei drew her energy bow, and three emerald green energy arrows shot out in a triangular formation, aiming directly at the center of the rock wall!

Qin Feng and Liu Ying also threw out several cards, summoning their beast companions, which then moved towards the rock wall!

For a moment, all sorts of attacks poured down upon that rock wall!

“Boom—rumble—!”

A deafening explosion echoed through the canyon!

Shattered rocks flew, and smoke and dust filled the air!

Just as the attacks landed—

“Awooo Roar—!!!”

A roar full of fury suddenly erupted from the smoke and dust!

Immediately following, a faint purple, agile figure, looking utterly disheveled, darted out from behind the shattered rock wall!

It was precisely the Void Shadow Stealth Leopard!

At this moment, its fur was charred in several places, and a hideous wound extended from its back to its hind leg, bleeding profusely.

In its deep purple beast eyes, fear appeared for the first time!

It didn't understand!

How could its proud Void Mimicry stealth be exposed?!

That was clearly the most perfect camouflage!

“It’s really… it was really there!” Shi Tai was dumbfounded, looking at the revealed Void Shadow Stealth Leopard, feeling his mind was a bit overwhelmed.

Lin Wei and Qin Feng were also astonished.

Lu Yuan’s “intuition” was simply too heaven-defying!

“Good opportunity!” Raimond’s eyes burst with excited light, “It’s injured! Don’t let it escape!”

The injured Void Shadow Stealth Leopard let out an unwilling roar, and the void around its body distorted once more, ripples layering, as if it intended to repeat its old trick and vanish into nothingness!

However, just as it was about to disappear—

A figure, like a ghost, appeared without warning in its escape path!

It was Lu Yuan!

He seemed to have anticipated the Void Shadow Stealth Leopard's teleportation landing spot in advance!

“Trying to run?” Lu Yuan sneered.

“You damn beast, you wasted so much of my time!”

“You damn beast!!!”

He suddenly exerted force with his feet, and his fist, covered in Frost Flame Power, brought with it a tearing whistle through the air as it slammed heavily into the Void Shadow Stealth Leopard’s back!

Precisely where its old wound was located!

“Bang—!”

“Awoo—!”

“Bang—!” “Bang—!” “Bang—!”

“Awoo—!” “Awoo—!” “Awoo—!”

The Void Shadow Stealth Leopard let out a pained howl, its old spinal wound bursting with flesh and bone shards under these few punches, almost completely severed!

The spatial distortion collapsed!

Teleportation failed!

“Well done, Lu Yuan!” Raimond seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, his figure transforming into a flash of lightning, instantly catching up!

The lightning battle blade in his hand cut a dazzling arc!

“Thunder Dragon Suppressing Prison Slash!”

“Pfft—!”

The massive leopard head flew into the sky!

Hot beast blood splattered across the long sky!

That Tier 4 monstrous beast, the Void Shadow Stealth Leopard, which had given everyone such a headache, was finally slain!

“Phew…”

Raimond leaned on his battle blade, panting heavily, but his face was beaming with an excited smile.

“We… we won!” Shi Tai plopped down on the ground, laughing loudly, “Haha! We finally took down this beast!”

The others also let out a sigh of relief, relieved smiles appearing on their faces.

This battle was incredibly hard-won.

And incredibly unbelievable!

...Qin Feng quickly walked to Lu Yuan’s side, his face filled with awe.

“Lu Yuan Junior Schoolmate! Your perceptive ability… it’s simply divine!”

He reached out a large hand, gripping Lu Yuan’s arm tightly, his tone excited.

“I, Qin Feng, have been tracking monstrous beasts for so many years, and I consider myself to have some experience in perception, but compared to you, it’s like a firefly next to the bright moon!”

“Your subtle capture of spatial fluctuations, and your intuitive judgment of the enemy’s hiding spot, are too precise!”

Qin Feng’s eyes glowed, as if he had discovered a rare treasure.

“Junior Schoolmate, are you interested in specializing in perception and tracking in the future?”

“With your talent, your future achievements are absolutely limitless!”

“If you’re willing, I can personally introduce you to the top perception-Department instructors in our academy!”

“Those instructors are all true grandmaster-level figures!”
