Lu Qing used the Earth Vein Elemental Magnetic Domain to bind and restrict the nine-headed Golden Core Initial Stage Guardian Beast.
Then, he unleashed his overwhelming power, killing a monster with a single punch and quickly reaping the rewards.
Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of the powerful figures in the dense forest once again.
"Who would dare to break into the tower at night?"
"Or have those powerful forces already figured out the secrets of the guardian beasts and are planning to kill them again?"
"No, it seems to be that kid from earlier today, he's appeared again!"
At first, the group of powerful figures thought that some force had tried to break into the tower again, and wondered who was so foolish as to try to break into the tower in the middle of the night.
When they released their spiritual senses, they discovered that it was none other than the young man who had killed three black wolf beasts during the day.
"These guardian beasts must contain some secret, otherwise this kid wouldn't come to hunt them in the middle of the night!"
The guy who used to sneak into the forest and disappear without a trace is now coming out at night to hunt strange beasts.
Now, the powerful figures in the dense forest were completely certain that these guardian beasts must contain some powerful secret.
Otherwise, this cowardly brat wouldn't have been sneaking around hunting us one after another.
boom!
Lu Qing knew without a doubt that the commotion he had caused had attracted the attention of many powerful figures in the forest.
But he didn't care and continued to hunt down the guardian beasts on the outer perimeter at a rapid pace.
With another punch, he killed a massive wild boar-like beast, and then he also killed all nine guardian beasts at the early Golden Core stage on the outer perimeter.
This scene immediately surprised the powerful figures in the dense forest.
They had all personally experienced just how troublesome the guardian beasts outside the ancient tower were.
Even the nine beasts at the early stage of the Golden Core realm on the outer perimeter are incredibly powerful and have such tenacious vitality that they are a major headache for anyone.
Even a powerful expert in the late Golden Core stage might not be able to kill with a single blow if their Dao techniques are weakened.
But in Lu Qing's hands, those early-stage Golden Core beasts were like tofu, easily killed one by one with a single punch.
In the entire secret realm, only a handful of people can do this.
However, all the powerful figures could see that the reason why Lu Qing could kill alien beasts as easily as cutting melons and vegetables was largely due to his incredibly powerful physical body.
In this strange and mysterious realm, due to the scarcity of spiritual energy and the peculiar spatial rules, the power of Taoist arts and magical treasures will be greatly weakened.
Only pure physical strength will not be weakened.
Therefore, in the eyes of many powerful figures, Lu Qing's ability to kill the alien beast so easily was not because his realm and strength were so profound that they far surpassed his.
Rather, it was his powerful physical body that was perfectly suited to the environment of this secret realm, allowing him to unleash his full potential.
Of course, whatever the reason, Lu Qing's current combat strength is still highly valued by a group of powerful figures.
At least within this secret realm, none of them dared to say they could do anything to this mysterious young man.
"He has already killed all nine Golden Core stage early-stage beasts on the outer perimeter, and he hasn't left. What else is he going to do?"
The powerful figures in the dense forest were surprised to find that after Lu Qing killed the last Golden Core early-stage guardian beast, he did not leave as quickly as before.
Instead, they continued walking inside.
"He's going in. Could it be that he's going to try to climb the tower alone?"
Seeing this, all the powerful figures who had been watching the commotion were truly shocked.
It's important to know that, to date, no one has ever successfully climbed the tower alone.
All those who tried and became strong have died tragically.
Even the most powerful Daoist disciples and saintesses wouldn't dare say they could conquer the tower alone.
Among the eighteen guardian beasts, the three beasts at the late Golden Core stage located at the very back exuded an aura that was truly terrifying.
Let alone in the secret realm, even in the outside world, if their strength hadn't been weakened, they wouldn't dare say they could defeat those three terrifying beasts.
That's why everyone was so surprised when they saw Lu Qing actually daring to walk inside.
Lu Qing was naturally unaware of the thoughts of the powerful figures in the dense forest.
He stepped into the territory guarded by one of the Golden Core stage beasts.
The beast he chose was a mid-stage Golden Core ape, the same beast Chu Xiaojing had mentioned that had shattered their formation.
The moment Lu Qing stepped into the guarded area, the ape-like beasts had already awakened.
With a snap of his eyes, he vanished from his spot and appeared before Lu Qing in the next instant, his eyes flashing with ferocity and his body radiating a terrifying aura. He threw a punch at Lu Qing.
Not only was his speed extremely fast, but his punches were also exceptionally fierce, giving him the air of a martial arts master.
"That's interesting."
Feeling the power of the ape's punch, Lu Qing's face showed an amused expression.
He neither dodged nor evaded, nor even activated his Earth Vein Magnetic Domain. He simply lowered his shoulders and threw a punch, accompanied by a fierce tiger's roar and dragon's cry, to meet the ape's fist.
This scene evoked a completely different feeling in the eyes of the powerful figures in the dense forest.
The ape-like beast was over two zhang tall, with strong and long arms, and its fists were like a huge black millstone.
When it's swung, the resulting gale-force winds can obliterate even a Foundation Establishment cultivator with just a slight touch.
Lu Qing's fist was much smaller compared to theirs, and in their eyes, it was like throwing an egg against a rock.
It seemed as if he would be smashed to pieces by that ape-like beast with a single punch at any moment, turning into mincemeat.
However, when the two fists clashed, the eyes of all the strongmen widened in surprise.
Amidst the raging gale, the earth trembled, and a massive figure retreated continuously, each step causing the ground to shake.
It turned out that the ape, which was over two zhang tall, was forced to retreat repeatedly by Lu Qing's punch, and could not even maintain its balance.
Even the ape-like beast, whose eyes were originally full of ferocity, now showed an expression of disbelief.
It seemed unexpected that this little guy could knock him back with a single punch.
"Want a refund?"
Lu Qing's gaze sharpened, and with a stomp of his foot, he shot out like lightning, catching up with the retreating ape-like beast.
With a flick of his left hand, a yellow light flashed, and an invisible magnetic force from the earth's veins surged forth, binding the ape-like beast.
Then, with a pull and a push from Lu Qing, the ape-like beast instantly felt itself become a hundred times heavier. Coupled with the powerful pulling force, it couldn't help but fall forward, as it was already unsteady on its feet.
At this moment, Lu Qing unleashed a roar like a tiger and a cry like a dragon, and threw another punch with his right hand.
His punch was aimed at the head of the ape-like beast.
Having fought these guardian beasts many times, Lu Qing had long since figured out that their heads were their greatest weakness.
Once the head is blown apart, that formidable vitality becomes useless.
The ape-like beast made one wrong move, and then another. Lu Qing outmaneuvered it repeatedly, leaving it helpless as the jade-like fist drew ever closer to its forehead.
boom!
A cloud of blood mist exploded out, and the ape-like beast at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm was dead!
