"That's definitely the mountain forest from our old seclusion spot!"
Little Li recognized it right away after hearing that roar.
He recalled that sound clearly—it belonged to the Wind Beast, the mutant creature unique to Gale Plain.
"You're right, this is the mountain forest outside Gale Plain, where we hid away before," Lu Qing affirmed with a nod.
He had lingered in this area for a while, which allowed him to memorize the spatial coordinates and teleport them here without issue.
"Brother, have you visited this place earlier?" Little Yan inquired.
"Indeed, perfect timing—let's pay a visit to our old acquaintance,"
With a casual wave from Lu Qing, a surge of spatial power wrapped around the group, and they vanished from sight in an instant.
The very next moment, they materialized amid howling gales and swirling yellow dust.
Nearby, a massive silhouette thrashed its limbs, apparently striking at some target.
Just a thought from Lu Qing halted the fierce winds and sandstorm within a one-zhang radius completely.
Furthermore, they blended seamlessly into the environment, so even the enormous figure remained oblivious to their sudden appearance.
"Ah Qing, that's the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast we ran into previously!"
Little Li pointed it out the moment he spotted the hulking form.
As it happened, the earlier bellow came from this very Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast that had chased them across Gale Plain in the past.
"Yes, that's the one, which is why I referred to it as an old friend," Lu Qing replied with a slight nod.
He also observed that this Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast, his former opponent, had advanced noticeably in its cultivation.
The sand and rocks composing its frame had solidified remarkably, and its limb swings showed disciplined precision.
It was evident that it had fully entered the Primordial Spirit Realm, with its intelligence having sharpened considerably.
His attention shifted to the opposite side.
Facing the Wind Beast stood seven or eight Human Clan cultivators arranged in formation, channeling a magical treasure together to erect a protective barrier, barely fending off the beast's assaults.
Still, from the way the barrier trembled nonstop under the Wind Beast's blows, it was clear they couldn't last much longer.
"Senior Brother, this Wind Beast has fully attained the Primordial Spirit Realm, and its intelligence has surged, allowing perfect command over Gale Plain's wind laws. What do we do now?"
Inside the barrier, a female cultivator at the Golden Core Post Realm gazed worriedly at the wavering magical treasure shield.
She never imagined the Gale Plain Wind Beast would have genuinely reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, dominating the entire plain.
Far from the tales of it being only half-step into Primordial Spirit Realm with dim wits.
She and her Senior Brothers had rushed in too recklessly to hunt this Wind Beast.
Without the Middle Grade Spiritual Device Mystic Light Shield gifted by their master, they would likely have met their end already.
Yet even now, the Mystic Light Shield could only delay the inevitable for a short time. Soon enough, it would shatter completely.
"Stay calm, just hang in there a bit more. I'm charging up the Heaven-shocking Stab—it'll be ready in no more than twenty breaths. You have to hold out!"
The young man in white leading the formation declared through clenched teeth.
"Heaven-shocking Stab! Senior Brother, you can't do that!" another young man cried out. "Using it will drain all your mana, leaving you unable to fight back!"
The rest of them paled sharply too, knowing full well the peril of depleted mana in Gale Plain.
"We have no choice. This Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast's power exceeds what we anticipated. Only the Heaven-shocking Stab can wound it otherwise," the young man in white responded in haste.
"Keep this in mind: after I strike its body with the Heaven-shocking Stab, escape right away. The Wind Beast's Life Core intact means it won't die for real—even if its form breaks apart, it'll regenerate in at most ten breaths.
No matter if I manage to shatter the Wind Beast's Life Core or not, seize that instant to flee as far as you can and hurry out of Gale Plain!"
"But Senior Brother, what about you?" the woman pressed.
"Don't concern yourselves with me—this is our sole option. If not, we'll all perish here!" the young man in white bellowed.
At that point, a golden spear materialized before him, radiating a fearsome presence.
Detecting the menace from the golden spear, the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast grew even more savage in its onslaught.
Its enormous fists of compacted sand and stone, resembling colossal mountains, hammered relentlessly at the shield, intent on pulverizing the puny foes beneath.
Nevertheless, the Mystic Light Shield lived up to its status as a superior Middle Grade Spiritual Device for defense.
Despite the brutal barrage, it endured.
Though warped and quivering from the impacts, it held firm thanks to the desperate efforts of those within.
Breaths passed one by one, and the golden spear ahead of the young man in white intensified in brilliance.
Provoked to fury by the mounting danger, the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast ignored all else and vaulted upward, clasping both fists to deliver a devastating smash down onto the shield.
It aimed to obliterate the cluster of pests before the golden spear could finish forming!
"This is it!"
But right as the Primordial Spirit Realm Wind Beast launched into the air, the young man's eyes flared wide with fierce determination.
At the same time, the golden spear before him morphed into a blazing golden ray, hurtling at incredible velocity toward the detected spot—the Life Core.
"We've got it!"
The young man in white surged with exhilaration as he eyed the trajectory of the golden light.
In his perception, the Wind Beast's Life Core stayed exposed, on the verge of impact.
However, the following moment brought a sly glint flashing in the Wind Beast's eyes.
