Chapter 883: First Encounter with the Thunder Leopard
Tu Hongyi nodded: "Hmm, it’s good that you understand, I’m leaving now, let’s meet again if we have the chance."
As she spoke, Tu Hongyi’s figure disappeared in an instant, without a trace. Lin Kuang couldn’t even feel Tu Hongyi’s presence.
"What kind of speed is this? It’s too fast, isn’t it?"
Watching Tu Hongyi disappear, Lin Kuang thought in utter shock.
Since arriving on Xuanwu Continent, the things Lin Kuang had experienced were too shocking for him, making Lin Kuang a bit dizzy.
"Forget it, let’s not think too much for now. After all, I’ve just arrived on Xuanwu Continent, I’m unfamiliar with many things here.
I should first find a couple of monster beasts to fight with and familiarize myself with their combat methods."
Lin Kuang thought to himself, then began to no longer hide his presence, actively attracting prey.
The highest-level monster beast here is only at the Void Realm peak, so Lin Kuang doesn’t really care as it’s the same realm as him.
Unleashing his presence, Lin Kuang kept walking straight ahead, believing that he would definitely find his way out eventually.
Before Lin Kuang had walked far, around ten miles or so, he felt the presence of a monster beast.
This presence wasn’t very strong, seemingly at the Void Realm level.
"Finally encountered a monster beast, I thought there wouldn’t be any."
Lin Kuang thought to himself, his eyes filled with excitement and thrill.
After all, it’s his first time facing a monster beast in combat, and Lin Kuang couldn’t help but be a bit excited.
Standing quietly in place, soon enough, a monster beast appeared in Lin Kuang’s sight.
This monster beast wasn’t very big, about two meters long, resembling a leopard from Earth.
Except that this leopard had long, sharp fangs at the corners of its mouth, glinting brightly under the reflection of light, looking extremely sharp.
Meanwhile, Lin Kuang noticed its limbs were extremely sharp, and it had a tail more than a meter long swaying behind it.
Lin Kuang didn’t recognize this creature, but if it were a martial artist from Xuanwu Continent, they would.
This is a monster beast called Lei Bao, which is undoubtedly one of the trickiest foes for Void Realm fighters.
Because it’s extremely fast, and at crucial moments it can spit out lightning, making it very difficult to handle.
At this moment, the eyes of this Lei Bao flashed fiercely, its gaze locked on Lin Kuang, advancing step by step towards him.
When it was about ten meters away from Lin Kuang, Lei Bao stopped, its eyes filled with vigilance.
Evidently, this creature also possessed a great deal of spiritual wisdom.
Seeing the Lei Bao, Lin Kuang dared not act carelessly, as he was unaware of its methods and, given that this was Xuanwu Continent, who knew what kind of skills the monster beasts here had.
Thinking, Lin Kuang retrieved the Nameless Sword from the Blue Sea Bracelet, his gaze somewhat excited and cautious as he focused on the Lei Bao ahead, searching for its weaknesses.
Lin Kuang didn’t move, nor did the Lei Bao, the pair simply staring each other down.
At this moment, the atmosphere between Lin Kuang and the Lei Bao began to grow tense, with the surrounding trees gently shaking as a gentle breeze quietly blew through, breaking the stillness.
"Roar!"
The Lei Bao let out a loud roar, its sharp claws gripping the ground forcefully, its entire body rushing towards Lin Kuang at incredible speed, arriving right in front of him in an instant.
Seeing the speed of the Lei Bao, Lin Kuang was somewhat amazed; this creature’s speed was too fast, far exceeding Lin Kuang’s imagination.
"What incredible speed!"
Watching the Lei Bao rush at him, Lin Kuang thought to himself.
However, while Lei Bao’s speed was fast, Lin Kuang’s speed was not slow either.
In an instant, Extreme Shadow Illusion was activated, Lin Kuang’s figure swiftly retreated, with the Nameless Sword in his hand gleaming with Profound Qi as he slashed down hard.
At this moment, Lei Bao raised its paw, the sharp claw directly struck towards the Nameless Sword in Lin Kuang’s hand.
"Clang"
When the two collided, a sound of clashing metal rang out between the Nameless Sword and Lei Bao’s claw.
Lin Kuang felt a tremendous force surge forth, almost knocking him down.
Thankfully, Lin Kuang quickly regained control of his body and avoided embarrassment.
"What a formidable creature, this power almost matches eighty percent of my strength.
Moreover, these claws are so sharp that my Nameless Sword cannot even harm it."
Lin Kuang thought quickly to himself.
At this moment, Lei Bao’s other paw came smashing down again, directly targeting Lin Kuang’s head, seemingly intent on crushing it in one blow.
"What swift reaction speed, its combat experience is also quite formidable."
Lin Kuang thought, his body rapidly retreating, dodging this attack from Lei Bao.
Seeing Lin Kuang retreat, the Lei Bao was relentless, its four paws scraping the ground as it charged towards Lin Kuang once more.
Lin Kuang wasn’t in a hurry to attack; if he truly intended to kill, the Lei Bao would have been dealt with already.
Lin Kuang merely wanted to see what kind of attack methods this Lei Bao had, so that when he encountered this type of monster beast again, he could eliminate it with the least amount of effort.
The approaching Lei Bao roared, suddenly spewing a sphere from its mouth, a sphere entirely interwoven with thunder and lightning, containing terrifying power.
Feeling that power, Lin Kuang frowned: "What a powerful force, this is the power of lightning.
This monster beast can actually control the power of lightning? It’s truly impressive."
Lin Kuang thought in shock, as lightning is a force of nature, and the ability of this monster beast to wield it was indeed astounding to Lin Kuang.
Thinking, Lin Kuang directly attacked, the Nameless Sword in his hand bursting forth with a dazzling sword light, then slashing down fiercely!
The formidable sword light struck the lightning sphere.
With the collision of their powers, a strong wave instantly permeated outward.
Lin Kuang calmly watched, as such power couldn’t harm him; he just wanted to see what the Lei Bao would do next.
Within seconds, Lin Kuang’s expression sharpened as he sensed Lei Bao’s presence.
The presence was slightly weak, but it didn’t seem to have suffered much damage.
At this moment, Lei Bao dashed out from within that force, appearing in front of Lin Kuang once more.
Then, Lei Bao had its back facing Lin Kuang, with its tail that was over a meter long whipping fiercely towards Lin Kuang’s waist like a long whip.
The extremely fast speed brought with it the sound of breaking air, appearing at Lin Kuang’s waist in an instant.
If Lin Kuang were struck by this tail, he would be split in two, given the immense power contained within that tail.
In response, Lin Kuang leaped up instantly, narrowly evading Lei Bao’s tail.
Seeing Lin Kuang ascend, Lei Bao let out a furious roar, its four paws exerting force, leaping up, its long tail whipping towards Lin Kuang once more.
Seeing this, Lin Kuang smiled slightly; it seemed that Lei Bao had nearly exhausted its techniques, as for Lei Bao’s weakness, Lin Kuang seemed to have found it.
"Big guy, it’s time for me to take you down!"
Lin Kuang said, the Nameless Sword in his hand thrusting out like lightning.
