Chapter 8, Fierce Battle with the Thunder Beast

On this day, while Li Chengzhu was resting on a large tree in the forest, he felt a rhythmic tremor in his body, as if some enormous entity was approaching from not far away, causing the ground to shake.

Although he could rely on the speed of his flying sword to escape the battlefield, Li Chengzhu was also set ablaze. He had always been the one to bully these celestial beasts; when had he ever been bullied so severely? Thus, while dodging the lightning, he pondered over a countermeasure.

Li Chengzhu was stunned by that roar, his mind in disarray. At the moment of shock, he did not have time to launch another attack before he saw a massive cow's claw coming at him. In a moment of desperation, he could only raise his cold light to block it in front of his chest

However, whether it is a celestial beast or a spiritual beast, there must be times when their spiritual power is exhausted

I have finally waited for the moment to unleash my power

No longer running, I deftly manipulate the spiritual decision, shooting out like a flash of cold light, directly piercing the eye of the African rhinoceros.

The African rhinoceros resembled a mobile artillery platform, with Li Chengzhu shooting wherever it flew. It unleashed lightning strikes as thick as a water bucket without hesitation. Before long, a great fire erupted around.

Li Chengzhu was sweating profusely, leaning to one side to take a look at the back of this spirit beast. He saw a massive tail restlessly swaying behind it, causing a tree as large as a person to shake unsteadily. In the center of the spirit beast's back was something resembling a herring, but Li Chengzhu did not believe that this herring was a real herring. Just looking at the glimmering sharp edge made him feel that being cut by this herring would be no less severe than being pierced by a sword of cold light. The spirit beast was at least 50 meters long and 30 meters high, not including the height of that herring.

As soon as Li Chengzhu stepped away, the African rhinoceros's lightning strike had already breached the interception, hitting the large tree and instantly splitting it in two, igniting a raging fire at the break.

After pondering for half a day, Li Chengzhu finally reached a conclusion: unless the African rhinoceros stops, he can only continue to run like this forever

In the blink of an eye, the massive footprint of the African rhinoceros landed on the Cold Light Sword, nearly sending Li Chengzhu flying with its tremendous force. Utilizing this power, he spun in mid-air and managed to roll onto another large tree, successfully dissipating the force.

With a crisp sound of "clang," the cold light sword struck the eyelid of the African rhinoceros but could not penetrate even a fraction. Li Chengzhu was greatly astonished; the cold light could not even break through its defenses. In a moment of urgency, he quickly changed his incantation.

Li Chengzhu was taken aback; just as he steadied himself on the tree, the second attack had already arrived. He immediately recited the incantation silently, extending his hand to point, and a bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, shot forth from his hand to meet the incoming strike. At the same time, he exerted force with his feet and flew towards another large tree.

As expected, after half a day's time, when Li Chengzhu was exhausted and panting, the attacks of the African rhinoceros finally began to weaken. Not only did the speed of the attacks slow down, but the thickness of the lightning also changed. It transformed from the thickness of a water barrel to that of a human thigh. Striking a large tree could no longer break it in one blow.

Li Chengzhu furrowed his brows and looked ahead, where several large trees were leaning at odd angles, suggesting that the creature this time was somewhat different from those in the past. Its size must be extraordinarily large, which excited Li Chengzhu, though he was uncertain about its strength. These days, he had been constantly bullying those spirit beasts that looked good but were ineffective, leaving him disinterested in taking action. Therefore, he was eagerly anticipating the chance to encounter a more formidable spirit beast this time, to test his own capabilities.

Li Chengzhu suppressed the surging blood in his heart while secretly feeling alarmed; the strength of this African rhinoceros was truly formidable. It was able to injure him to such an extent, and he had no idea what level of spirit beast it was.

However, when the spirit beast approached Li Chengzhu, he still stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the monster before him. Although he had long been mentally prepared, he was still taken aback by the enormous creature in front of him

Easily dodging the attack of the African rhinoceros, Li Chengzhu leered, "Little wild bull, let you experience the piercing of this immortal's spiritual sword." With a slight movement of his hand, he shouted, "Turn!"

Only the cold light spun rapidly on the eyelids of the African rhinoceros. The intense pain caused the African rhinoceros to cry out, its massive head shaking left and right in an attempt to shake off the assault of the cold light, but the cold light seemed to be glued to its eyes, continuously penetrating inward.

After dragging it out for nearly half a day, even the spiritual energy within Li Chengzhu had been completely exhausted. As he consumed the Mingling Pill, Li Chengzhu let out a lewd chuckle.

It is important to note that the trunk he is currently sitting on is at least twenty meters above the ground. Moreover, the creature before him is able to meet his gaze directly, which means that the creature's eyes are also at least twenty meters above the ground.

With a "pop!" sound, the steel eyelid of the African rhinoceros was pierced. A mixture of blood and a black-and-white substance shot out from its eye, splattering far away, causing Li Chengzhu to feel a wave of nausea.

Having evaded the first bolt of lightning, before Li Chengzhu could catch his breath, the second bolt struck right before him, prompting him to swiftly dart to the side. Immediately following, the third bolt of lightning arrived as expected

Resolute in his decision, Li Chengzhu took a low-grade Spirit Nourishing Pill from his storage ring and placed it in his mouth to prevent his spiritual energy from depleting. He was prepared to engage in a protracted battle with this African rhinoceros.

At this moment, Li Chengzhu truly found himself in a predicament that was difficult to articulate. Faced with the relentless barrage of lightning akin to a machine gun, Li Chengzhu could only push his agility to the limit. He no longer held the cold light sword in his hand, preparing for an attack; instead, he placed it under his feet to enable himself to fly a little faster. Li Chengzhu understood that with his small stature, enduring even a single bolt of lightning would surely lead to dire consequences.

Li Chengzhu looked at the long creature resembling the spiritual beast of the African rhinoceros, unable to suppress a gulp, contemplating whether he should make a run for it

Still recovering from the shock, the African rhinoceros opened its large mouth, and a bolt of lightning, as thick as a water barrel, shot out towards Li Chengzhu.

The African rhinoceros was also struck by this blow, opening its large mouth and letting out a loud roar, then raising its front paw and swatting at it.

Li Chengzhu knew that his opportunity was approaching soon

Seemingly very displeased with Li Chengzhu's demeanor, the African rhinoceros let out a snort, indicating its disdain

Li Chengzhu only felt a strong wind blowing past; had he not tightly grasped the tree trunk, he might have been blown away. After the hurricane passed, Li Chengzhu wiped the snot off his face and jumped up, shouting, "Damn it! Just because the tiger doesn't show its power, do you think I'm Hello Kitty?" After saying this, he summoned the Cold Light Sword, held the spiritual incantation, and with a sharp command, shouted, "Rush!" as he lunged towards the bull-sized eye.

With a resounding "clang," the cold light was blocked outside the eyelids. The other eye of the African rhinoceros, wide open, was filled with disdain, provocatively shooting another bolt of lightning at Li Chengzhu.
