331: I'd better go back and accompany my soft and sweet girlfriend!

At the same time, within the vast and boundless mountain range of Dragon Country, Wang Cao and Weng Qinghua displayed astonishing and unparalleled killing prowess!

The evil Yao Beasts within the mountain range, regardless of their size, could not escape their fate, all falling under their swords.

Wherever the sword light flashed, a bloody storm erupted, and dismembered limbs were scattered everywhere.

Their slaughter turned the entire mountain range into a grim and terrifying Forbidden Ground of death!

Their figures were elusive, like ghosts; their sword techniques were vicious and sharp, each swing of the sword raising a crimson rain of blood.

The mournful howls of the evil creatures echoed through the mountains and forests, lingering for a long time, but their figures moved freely through the blood-soaked scene, as if entering an uninhabited realm.

Their clothes were already dyed crimson with blood, and their faces and bodies were stained with the bloodstains of the evil creatures.

However, their eyes showed no signs of fatigue or fear, only an obsession with battle and a strong desire for victory.

Time flew by, and the once prosperous mountain range, where Yao Beasts roamed unchecked, was now utterly silent.

The former clamor and prosperity were gone, replaced by a scene of scattered remains and bloodstains everywhere.

Wang Cao and Weng Qinghua stood in the center of this crimson ocean, their heavy breathing accompanying their exhausted bodies, but their faces showed an inexpressible sense of satisfaction and pride.

Wang Cao moved like a gust of wind, rushing along the steep mountain path.

He tightly gripped the long sword in his hand, which gleamed with a cold light, and his sharp gaze, like an eagle's, scanned the surroundings, not missing any slight trace of Yao Beast activity.

Just then, a Yao Beast of astonishing size abruptly entered his sight.

This Yao Beast was covered in a layer of hard scales, it was a Yao Beast in the Mid Stage; its sharp fangs gleamed with a chilling light, revealing an endless brutal nature; its blood-red eyes were like burning flames, making people tremble with fear.

However, facing such a terrifying existence, Wang Cao showed no fear.

He flashed, rushing towards the Yao Beast with lightning speed, the long sword in his hand like a nimble venomous snake, dancing with brilliant sword light.

The Yao Beast was enraged; it opened its huge mouth, letting out a deafening roar, and then, like a small mountain, it lunged at Wang Cao.

Its power was overwhelming, each attack as fierce and merciless as a storm.

But Wang Cao, relying on his extraordinary agility and keen reaction speed, easily dodged the Yao Beast's fatal blow.

Immediately after, he quickly seized the opportunity, using all his might to unleash that fatal sword strike.

"A cold glint arrives first, then the sword comes out like a Dragon!"

"Heaven-Slaying Sword Art!"

"One-Sword Style: Oni Giri!"

This sword strike was as swift as lightning, precisely piercing the Yao Beast's vital point.

The Yao Beast was severely wounded, suffering immensely, and attacked even more furiously.

However, Wang Cao's movements were as agile and unpredictable as a ghost's.

He lightly leaped and nimbly spun through the mountains, skillfully avoiding the Yao Beast's fierce attacks again and again.

At the same time, he was constantly searching for the perfect opportunity to counterattack.

After a thrilling and intensely fierce battle, Wang Cao finally succeeded in discovering the Yao Beast's weakness.

He unhesitatingly poured all his strength into another sword strike, this one as sharp as a sudden storm, accurately hitting the Yao Beast's heart.

"Extreme Ghost Sword Art: Iron Cut Style!"

"Whoosh!"

With a mournful wail, the Yao Beast fell heavily to the ground, unable to move anymore.

Wang Cao's taut nerves finally relaxed, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Then, he stepped towards the Yao Beast's corpse, carefully taking out a faintly glowing Yao Core from its body.

Wang Cao carefully put the precious Yao Core into his pouch, a relieved and slightly tired smile on his face.

He had originally just come to the mountain to kill Yao Beasts, and he had never expected such an unexpected gain.

At this moment, his heart was filled with joy and satisfaction.

Not far from here, Weng Qinghua stood upright, his eyes burning like torches, firmly fixed on the caterpillar Yao Beast in front of him.

His figure was agile, like a leopard; he sidestepped, easily avoiding the Yao Beast's powerful blow.

Immediately after, the long sword in his hand flashed like lightning across the sky, striking instantly, and at the same time, time seemed to stop flowing; this was his unique skill, Time Stop.

This sword strike was incredibly precise, directly hitting the Yao Beast's fatal weakness.

The caterpillar Yao Beast let out a painful hiss, its body twisting violently, and finally collapsed weakly to the ground.

Weng Qinghua dared not slacken in the slightest; he carefully approached the Yao Beast, gently prying open its body with the tip of his sword, and a faintly glowing Yao Core appeared before his eyes.

A look of ecstatic joy flashed across Weng Qinghua's face; he carefully put the Yao Core into his pouch, then turned and left the Yao Beast's corpse, beginning to sense Wang Cao's location.

A moment later, the corners of his mouth turned slightly upwards, forming a confident smile.

"Haha, this victory will surely belong to me, ah hahaha!"

Before he finished speaking, Weng Qinghua, holding his long sword, sped towards Wang Cao's location like a ghost.

When he saw Wang Cao, the smug, arrogant smile on his face was simply impossible to hide.

He brazenly shouted: "My formidable opponent, today you are absolutely doomed to lose! Ah hahaha~"

Facing such an arrogant Wang Cao, he merely gave a dismissive scoff.

Wang Cao, seeing this, held his long sword and wiped the blood from the blade on the newly slain Yao Beast's corpse, while coldly responding: "That's not necessarily true. This Heavenly Venerate has been killing Yao Beasts without a moment's rest, and has now successfully obtained seven Refining Qi level Yao Beast Yao Cores. How many do you have, on the other hand?"

Hearing these words, Weng Qinghua was instantly stunned; his expression changed in an instant.

He had never expected that Wang Cao would be able to obtain seven Yao Cores.

One must know that although there were many Yao Beasts on the mountain, not every one of them possessed a Yao Core.

Wang Cao's luck was simply too good!!

Seeing the other party's expression change, Wang Cao secretly rejoiced, but on the surface, he remained calm, even feigning surprise and provoking: "No way, no way, there's no one who doesn't even have seven Yao Cores, right!"

Weng Qinghua: "..."

After hearing this, Weng Qinghua was naturally very unconvinced; he snorted coldly, then turned and left without looking back.

Wang Cao, seeing this, quickly asked: "Where are you going?"

However, Weng Qinghua didn't even look at him, merely replying indifferently: "It's boring, I'd rather go back and accompany my soft and sweet girlfriend!"

With that, he quickened his pace and soon disappeared from Wang Cao's sight.

Hearing Weng Qinghua's reply, Wang Cao's expression instantly became very ugly, his face directly stiffened...
