252: Lei Yuan Zhong?! Dugu Litian?

Everyone understood.

At this moment, Xuan Hongxue's thoughts were entirely focused on Lu Hao, and she didn't care about the voices around her at all. She spoke to Hu Mingda in a hoarse voice:

"Attack together, break the Formation Restriction, kill Lu Hao, and take back the Medicinal Pill!"

Hu Mingda didn't say much and directly activated the Heavenly Source Spirit Gourd.

A beam of light shot into the gourd, causing the Heavenly Source Spirit Gourd to tremble violently. Then, the pitch-black mouth of the gourd began to condense an incredibly terrifying fluctuation.

It spread outwards in all directions like ripples in water.

At this very moment, both sides of the battle stopped, quickly splitting into two factions and retreating to a safe place.

Are you kidding? This was a joint strike from a Dao-grade Top-Quality Magic Treasure and a powerhouse in the Yang Solid Realm!

If they were caught in the aftermath, they would likely be reduced to ashes instantly and bid farewell to this world.

Still want to fight? Fight my foot!

Is your own life worthless?

Seeing that the Heavenly Source Spirit Gourd was being activated, Xuan Hongxue didn't idle either; she immediately channeled her most powerful Cultivation Technique.

"Fire Phoenix Sword Art!"

She saw Xuan Hongxue's blood-red robes begin to flutter without wind, and the surrounding temperature increased drastically!

Soon, patches of flames appeared, slowly covering Xuan Hongxue's entire body.

Xuan Hongxue raised her hands, directly above her head.

Then, the flames around her body frantically gathered onto her hands, before suddenly shooting into the sky, forming a massive flame sword that reached the heavens!

The giant sword pierced straight into the clouds, so massive that it was unimaginable. Lu Hao's figure beneath the giant sword looked as small as an ant.

"Slash!"

Xuan Hongxue roared, and the towering flame sword, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, slashed rapidly towards the remaining Formation Restriction!

At the same time, the Heavenly Source Spirit Gourd finished charging. From the mouth of the gourd, it spat out a thin, pitch-black beam of light.

Although it looked far less imposing than the giant flame sword, its power was by no means lower. This was merely the result of Hu Mingda, as a Cultivator, being unable to fully activate it.

From this, one could see the terrifying nature of a Dao Grade Magic Treasure!

To fully unleash the power of an Intermediate Dao Grade Magic Treasure, one would likely need to be a Cultivator at the Peak of the Yang Solid Realm.

Lu Hao looked up, calmly watching the two offensives rushing towards him, without a trace of panic in his eyes.

"Putting on an act! Let's see how long you can keep up the pretense!"

Xuan Hongxue said coldly.

Under the two earth-shattering offensives, the Formation Restriction outside Lu Hao was immediately broken at an extremely fast speed.

Fifty thousand layers!

Forty thousand layers!

Ten thousand layers!

... In just a short moment, only the last one hundred layers of the Formation Restriction remained!

Breaking the Formation would only take an instant. A smile even appeared on Xuan Hongxue's face as her figure vanished, and she rushed rapidly towards Lu Hao!

In her view, Lu Hao was at most a Cultivator at the sixth level of the Nascent Void, and crushing him to death would be as simple as crushing an ant.

Ding...

The last layer of the great Formation was broken.

Xuan Hongxue was ecstatic, but the very next instant, an expression of extreme disbelief appeared on her face!

Around Lu Hao, a huge protective barrier had appeared at some point, like a transparent ancient bell, covering him.

Her Fire Phoenix Sword Art slashed fiercely against the ancient bell, emitting a melodious bell chime that echoed throughout the world.

Subsequently, that pitch-black beam of light also shot onto the ancient bell.

"Clang..." A bell chime, even louder than the previous one, rang out.

"What!"

"This is impossible! What level of Magic Treasure is this! How could you possibly have a defensive treasure of this Rank!"

Hu Mingda also exclaimed:

"A Dao-grade Top-Quality Magic Treasure!!!"

The Thunder Origin Bell, a Dao-grade Top-Quality Magic Treasure.

It must be said that Lu Hao did spend some effort when searching for treasures.

Treasures that were too strong, like Immortal-grade Magic Treasures, definitely couldn't be used in this kind of place.

If they were too weak, he feared they wouldn't be able to block attacks, and it had to be a defensive Magic Treasure. After much selection, Lu Hao chose this Thunder Origin Bell. It seemed a bit more low-key.

With the treasure having acknowledged him as its master, although he was still at the Mahayana Perfection, he could still activate about thirty percent of the treasure's power.

However, thirty percent was enough. The two attacks outside had just barely reached the category of the Yang Solid Realm, so they definitely couldn't break it.

Taking a step back, even if it were broken, he could just find another Magic Treasure.

Lu Hao looked at the two people outside with a smile, but his hand movements did not stop.

"Lu Hao, this is what you forced me to do!"

Xuan Hongxue waved her hands, and a figure appeared in her grasp.

This person was already breathing faintly, covered in wounds from head to toe, and his black robes had been soaked in blood, presenting a filthy appearance.

When this person appeared, Xuan Hongxue slapped him hard to wake him up.

He looked up at his surroundings, feeling somewhat unfamiliar, but the severe pain throughout his body made it hard for him to think.

Suddenly, when he turned his head, he saw a figure he missed very much...

"Master..."

A low, murmuring voice came from his mouth. When facing torture from others, he hadn't shed a single tear, but the moment he saw Lu Hao, he choked up, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

This person was none other than Dugu Litian!

Why did he end up in such a state?

At the time, in order to find Lu Hao's whereabouts, he had gone to the Yun Ming Sect alone.

The Yun Ming Sect was the most powerful Grandmaster in the Tian Lan Great Domain and was one of the affiliated Sects under the Ancient Pill Sect.

At that time, the Ancient Pill Sect was doing its utmost to prevent Lu Hao from collecting Materials. Just then, a Cultivator arrived, claiming to be looking for Lu Hao, which immediately attracted Dan Ding's attention.

When Dugu Litian saw Dan Ding, he was naturally extremely polite. Through their conversation, Dan Ding learned the reason he had come here.

And he also learned his identity! Lu Hao's personal disciple!

Just at this moment! Pang Gaoming ordered Dan Ding to bring Dugu Litian to him, and Dan Ding, without thinking much, did as he was told.

Or perhaps it could be said that he didn't care about a Cultivator Undergoing Tribulation, even if he was Lu Hao's disciple!

That was how Dugu Litian fell into the hands of Pang Gaoming. In order to obtain more useful information, Pang Gaoming first treated Dugu Litian with a polite attitude.

However, Dugu Litian was also very vigilant. Sensing that the other party couldn't go three sentences without mentioning his Master, he realized that the other party was likely not a good person!

Pang Gaoming discovered that soft tactics didn't work, so he resorted to hard ones! Thus, he subjected him to inhumane torture!

But upon learning that this person was his Master's enemy, Dugu Litian never said another word.

His heart was filled with regret, worried that he would become a burden to his Master.

Seeing that all sorts of threats and torture were fruitless, Pang Gaoming was extremely furious. He directly planted a curse on him and then maintained a sliver of his vitality, keeping him for the future to see if he could be used to threaten Lu Hao.
