Two days later, at night, the dark sky was filled with stars and the moonlight was beautiful.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were hidden in a lush tree in the woods. With the moonlight above, their eyes glanced back and forth around the spiritual field in the valley formation.
All around, the low-level cultivators of the Qing Family's Bone Forging Realm were patrolling back and forth around the spiritual field, scanning the surroundings with sharp eyes.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were hiding in the hidden big tree to observe the whereabouts of the soul-devouring rat that was hidden somewhere and often came to harm the spiritual plant.
This mission has rich rewards, and it is the first mission for him and Kang Tian to hunt monsters. Zhou Lei and Kang Tian don't want to give up so easily.
Therefore, the two of them could only wait and see if they could kill the soul-eating rat on the spot.
As for the low-level practitioners of the Qing family who were patrolling around, they were just maintaining the status quo to prevent the Soul-eating Rat from discovering the strange phenomenon.
According to Qingyong, he has been arranging clan members to patrol around the spiritual field in the past few days, but the damn soul-eating rat still ignores the patrol guards every night, wreaks havoc in the spiritual field and leaves safely.
There is no way, that damn soul-eating rat is too cunning.
The role of the guard is just to keep him from being too arrogant.
So Zhou Lei and Kang Tian planned to maintain the status quo, hide in the dark, observe secretly, and once the soul-devouring rat appears, they would give it a fatal blow from behind!
"I hope the Soul-eating Rat can appear today." Zhou Lei thought in his heart.
Yesterday, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian kept watch all day. I wonder if the soul-eating rat discovered some clues, but it didn't show up. I hope that damn soul-eating rat can get into the trap today.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were hiding in the huge and lush trees, both concentrating and looking around.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian also didn't dare to practice, fearing that their aura would leak out and frighten the soul-eating rat away.
Late at night, when Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were losing their spirits, suddenly, a guard from the Qing tribe who was patrolling around the Lingtian with a torch seemed to see the wavering of the Linggu seedlings in the Lingtian. I was dazzled by myself.
So I rubbed my eyes and took a closer look. It was indeed moving! It's the Soul-Eating Rat!
"The Soul-Eating Rat is coming!" the guard shouted, and in an instant, the originally quiet and silent night suddenly became boiling.
"where?!"
"Damn rat, kill it!"
The surrounding guards of the Qing clan held torches high and rushed over with weapons and shouts. There was a roar of people!
Then, I saw a commotion among the lush seedlings in the spiritual field. With a whooshing sound, the soul-eating rat quickly swooped out of the spiritual field, whipping up a gust of evil wind and flashing past like gray lightning. The speed was extremely fast. Almost beyond the limit of what the human eye can capture!
In the blink of an eye, a distance of five or six feet had passed by, and he was about to escape into the dense forest around him, and escape!
At this moment, the sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded on the other side. Zhou Lei and Kang Tian sprang out from the tree trunk. The powerful vitality in their bodies circulated, and they flew seven or eight meters in an instant. Immediately, they stepped on the landing point, and their bodies The form turned into an afterimage and flashed past, with a gust of wind blowing behind it.
Choking! The man was in mid-air, and the long sword in Zhou Lei's hand was already unsheathed.
A silver light flashed, like a poisonous dragon coming out of its cave. But he was the last to arrive, catching up with the gray afterimage in an instant!
The Qing family guards present felt as if a silver lightning flashed through the air, and heard the sound of breaking wind. Zhou Lei had already dodged several feet to catch up with the spirit-devouring rat, and the rat turned into a silver sword and escaped in an instant. Shadow penetrates!
The aftermath of the sharp sword energy penetrated the body, like a real sword, sweeping across, instantly cutting off a tree behind it, as if it was destroying dry matter!
With a click, the tree fell down along a diagonal line from the middle, and the cut was as smooth as a tree!
Everyone in the Qing family around them was dumbfounded. Looking at Zhou Lei who slowly put away his sword in front of him, his expression calm and unchanged, they felt chills.
If the young man in front of me was not a helper but an enemy, he might not have been able to react before his head was cut off by the other party! At such a young age, he is already so powerful! He is indeed a young hero valued by the clan leader!
At this moment, everyone present couldn't help but feel a sense of joy in their hearts for surviving the disaster. Fortunately, they didn't offend the other party.
However, at this time, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian's expressions wrinkled slightly.
Because there was no body of the Soul-Eating Rat in front of him. Zhou Lei's sword just now did hit.
But Zhou Lei and Kang Tian clearly saw that the moment the sword penetrated the soul-eating rat's head, the figure of the soul-eating rat disappeared in an instant!
"Innate spell!" Kang Tian slightly gritted his teeth and spoke with his spiritual consciousness.
This cunning guy used his innate magic to create an afterimage clone, which deceived everyone, including Zhou Lei and Kang Tian!
His eyes quickly glanced around the spiritual field. The spiritual field was peaceful. Except for the newly fallen spiritual grain seedlings, there was no shadow of the spiritual eating rat anywhere!
Taking advantage of the confusion among everyone present, the soul-eating rat hiding in the spiritual field had already fled and disappeared without a trace.
"What should I do?" Zhou Lei asked via voice transmission from his spiritual consciousness.
"Let me ask the crane first." Kang Tian replied via voice transmission from his divine consciousness.
As early as two days ago, Kang Tian released the crane and has been monitoring everything in the sky and everything on the ground.
With the immortal crane's cultivation in the mortal bone realm, he would not lose track of the soul-eating rat.
Sure enough, the crane discovered the traces of the soul-eating rat. Under the guidance of the crane, he became Zhou Lei and Kang Tian's best guide to find the soul-eating rat!
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian raised their swords, jumped four to five feet in one step, and rushed into the forest, ignoring the phantom formation surrounding them, and followed the traces with several flashes in hot pursuit!
From then on, the few members of the Qing family who stayed nearby saw Zhou Lei and Kang Tian suddenly disappearing into the forest before they could react.
"Go find the clan leader!" After being stunned for a moment, a member of the Qing family holding a hoe quickly shouted.
In the lush deep forest, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian seemed to have turned into an afterimage, flickering in the forest. In between breaths, they had passed a distance of more than ten feet.
Following the Soul-Eating Rat, Zhou Lei, Kang Tian, and Xianhe went deep into the forest.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian pursued him relentlessly and ended up here, in the mountains and forests at least ten miles away from Qingshan Town.
However, as he continued to delve deeper, a trace of hesitation also emerged in his mind.
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian landed on the branches of a big tree and stopped.
Looking ahead at the traces that continued to extend into the depths of the forest, he frowned slightly and said, "Damn, it's almost ten miles away! How can that soul-eating rat escape so well!"
Although within the sphere of influence of the Black Turtle Sword Sect and Shiwandashan, all the powerful monsters were basically eliminated by the strong men of the sect.
But if you go deep into the mountains and forests, accidents might happen!
"No matter, it's just a soul-eating rat that can be killed head-on in the late Bone Forging Realm. What danger can it pose? Chase!" Gritting their teeth, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian decided to continue chasing.
This time, we must catch that guy! The figures flickered, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian even sped up!
However, as they went deeper, Zhou Lei and Kang Tian found nothing. Just when Zhou Lei and Kang Tian were thinking about whether to give up, their vision lit up, and an open space appeared in the woods.
The extended traces ended at the center of the open space. Found the lair of the soul-eating rat?
Zhou Lei and Kang Tian's eyes lit up, and he was about to fall from the tree, but at this moment, Zhou Lei suddenly discovered that the fallen leaves in the open space were a little messy, as if the soul-eating rat had struggled here.
At the same time, the surrounding dead leaves and soil seemed to be stained with a little blood.
