The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

"Wait, Chentian, there is a fourth-grade, top-grade phantom grass in front, which can enhance your mental strength."

"But there's a fourth-rank mid-grade demon beast, the Shadow Leopard, guarding it. What do you think? Are you up for it?"

As Zhang Chentian was walking cautiously, Xiaota said.

"Fourth-grade, top-grade Phantom Spirit Grass? Will it be useful to me?"

After hearing Xiaota's words, Zhang Chentian asked.

"Your current mental strength is only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary Danhua realm cultivator. It is certainly useful to you," Xiaota explained.

"In that case, I naturally can't let it go."

Then, Zhang Chentian followed the guidance of the small tower and came to the lair of the shadow leopard.

"It's in that cave. It's all up to you from now on." After saying that, Xiaota stopped talking.

Zhang Chentian restrained his breath and walked out of the cave carefully. He observed his surroundings carefully, fearing that he would disturb the resting shadow leopard.

When he came out of the cave, Zhang Chentian found the figure of the shadow leopard. He saw it lying quietly on the ground, as if it was resting.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Chentian was secretly happy, but at the same time he did not dare to be careless at all.

He took out the Cold Shadow Ice-Breaking Sword and continuously injected spiritual power into the sword. The long sword in his hand emitted bursts of cold light.

Immediately afterwards, he used the second move of Taixuan Sword Technique - Taixuan Breaking the Sky Slash!

This sword condensed all his strength and speed, and slashed towards the shadow leopard like lightning.

He wanted to use this trick to get rid of his opponent to avoid any more trouble.

However, things did not go as planned. Just when the sword blade was one meter away from the Shadow Leopard, the Shadow Leopard, which was originally resting, suddenly opened its eyes, and a cold light flashed in its eyes.

The next moment, the Shadow Leopard's body turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared instantly.

"No success?"

He muttered to himself with a bitter smile on his face.

However, this was also within Zhang Chentian's expectations.

After all, this is a mid-level fourth-order shadow leopard. It would be strange if it could be killed so easily.

Zhang Chentian gripped the hilt of the sword tightly in his hand, staring intently at the front, not daring to relax at all.

Suddenly, he felt a strong air current approaching rapidly from behind, as if a ferocious beast was pouncing at him with its fangs bared.

His heart tightened and he quickly dodged to the side, but he was still a step too slow.

The shadow leopard's sharp claws flashed like lightning, just missing Zhang Chentian's cheek by a millimeter.

Although he dodged in time, he was still scratched by the claws, and several bloody marks appeared on his face instantly.

The blood trickled down his cheek, causing him to feel a stinging pain.

Zhang Chentian was shocked and realized that the speed of this shadow leopard was much faster than he had imagined.

Facing the powerful enemy in front of him, Zhang Chentian did not dare to take it lightly. This was his first time facing a demon beast in the middle stage of Danhua.

He turned quickly, swung the sword in his hand, and a thrilling battle broke out between the man and the beast in the dark cave.

Their figures intertwined, and their swords and claws collided, making a crisp and harsh sound of collision.

He concentrated his mind and gathered all his strength into the sword in his hand. Then, he shouted loudly:

"The third form of Taixuan Sword Technique - Taixuan Star Sword!"

As he roared, the sword shone with dazzling light, like a falling star, and rushed towards the shadow leopard with a fierce momentum.

The blow finally hit the Shadow Leopard, and it fell to the ground injured.

Zhang Chentian took the opportunity to rush forward, ready to give it the final blow.

However, the Shadow Leopard turned into black mist again and disappeared.

"Damn it!" Zhang Chentian cursed inwardly. He knew that the shadow leopard would not leave because the Phantom Grass was still here.

"This is the Shadow Leopard's innate skill—Mist Transformation. With its current strength, it can only be used twice."

The small tower reminded Zhang Chentian in his mind.

"Twice? Okay!"

Zhang Chentian looked around vigilantly, watching for any movement.

A moment later, he sensed a wisp of black mist surging on the right, and immediately turned around and stabbed out with a sword.

However, this was just a feint by the Shadow Leopard, and its real target was Zhang Chentian's left side.

When Zhang Chentian realized this, it was too late.

The shadow leopard's sharp claws attacked him suddenly, and he narrowly avoided the vital parts, but a deep cut was still made on his arm, and blood gushed out.

Zhang Chentian gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and retreated using the Shadowless Step.

"It seems that it is still a bit difficult for me to kill a demon beast in the middle stage of Danhua with my current strength, but there is still a chance."

Zhang Chentian thought to himself. Although he had suffered a severe blow, he was not discouraged.

On the contrary, he had a clearer understanding of his own strength.

"Hmph! Evil beast! Your mist transformation skill can't be used anymore, right? Then... you can go die!"

Zhang Chentian said coldly, his eyes gleaming with determination. He knew that this moment was the perfect time for him to strike back.

Then, Zhang Chentian shouted:

"Xuantian Sword Shadow!"

As he shouted, the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth quickly gathered together to form a huge spiritual sword.

The spirit sword exuded a heart-pounding aura, as if it could tear through the void. It roared and rushed towards the shadow leopard with endless power and murderous intent.

The Shadow Leopard, which had used its innate skill twice, obviously no longer had the ability to resist this move and was instantly cut in half by the spirit sword.

"Huh~Finally dead!" Zhang Chentian, who killed the Shadow Leopard, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Being able to kill a Phantom Leopard in the middle stage of the Danhua Realm while at the peak of Qi Condensation is not bad. Once you comprehend the sword intent, basically no one in the Danhua Realm will be able to threaten you."

Xiaota rarely praised Zhang Chentian.

"Hehehe, this is all thanks to your reminder. If you hadn't told me it can only use the Mist skill twice, I would have already run away by now."

Hearing Xiaota's praise, Zhang Chentian also laughed.

After saying that, Zhang Chentian froze the Shadow Leopard's body with ice and put it into the Jiuxuan Star Tower, preparing to keep it for Xiaobai to eat.

Then Zhang Chentian searched the cave and said:

"This Shadow Leopard is so poor! All they have is a single Phantom Spirit Grass. I'm truly impressed!"

"Just be content. Hurry up and put away the Phantom Spirit Grass and go into the tower to absorb it. Perhaps your spiritual power can break through to the peak of the Danhua Realm. With the power of the Ice God Technique, it won't take long."

"This is the territory of the Shadow Leopard. No other monsters will come here in the short term." Xiaota reminded.

"it is good!"

After hearing Xiaota's words, Zhang Chentian replied.

Zhang Chentian walked to the side of the phantom grass, squatted down, and picked it carefully.

He felt the rich spiritual power contained in the Phantom Grass and his heart was full of anticipation.

Afterwards, he entered the Jiuxuan Star Tower to absorb the medicinal power of the Phantom Grass.

He adjusted his breathing, calmed his mind, and then practiced the Ice Divine Art.

As the technique was practiced, the spiritual power of the Phantom Grass was gradually guided into the body.

Zhang Chentian could feel his mental strength growing stronger and stronger, and this wonderful feeling made him immersed in it.
