Chapter 361 Looking Northwest, Shooting the Wolf in the Sky

Lu Zhou studied the mount . Where had he seen it before? Its aura felt very familiar .

Although Hua Yuexing was slightly ashamed of her skills, she was not discouraged when she saw Shan Yunzheng making such a huge effort to attack the mount . She pulled on her energy bow again and launched a fresh volley of arrows at the mount . When she first joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, Lu Zhou had trained her in the Quick Condensation method . Hence, she was exceptionally quick in firing her arrows . She was so fast that it made the hairs of the others stand on end . Perhaps, it was due to Shan Yunzheng’s presence and Shan Yunzheng banishing her from the sect, her competitive streak came out at this moment .

Han Yuexing’s eyes gleamed determinedly as she fired in succession . ‘Although I can’t compare to you in might and precision, or even the locking of aura, I’m sure that there’s something that I’m better at than you . ’

Energy arrows were clenched between her fingers . She pulled back on the bowstring…

Twang! Twang! Twang!

Her shots flew toward the mount in the skies . An archer’s advantage was not only in long-range attacks . The precision of an archer could add to their deadliness as well . They were not like the ballistae on castle walls or the ordinary bows used by soldiers . Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm cultivators could form energy bow and arrows . The bursts of energy arrows fired by an energy bow were much more powerful than pure energy blades . Arrows had a wider reach and a quicker speed .

Hua Yuexing could fire three energy arrows at once . She clenched them between her fingers and let loose . Three consecutive shots were the limit for her Two-leaf stage . In other words, she could fire nine energy arrows . However, having cultivated the Quick Condensation method, she could fire four to five consecutive shots in one breath within an extremely short span of time . Originally, this speed could only be achieved by Godly Archers at the Five-leaf stage and beyond .

Initially, Shan Yunzheng did not notice it . When she realized there seemed to be a display of fireworks beside her, she glanced in its direction . She felt shocked at the sight . ‘How can this young girl be this quick?’

The continuous shots were not completely useless . The mount was starting to wail in pain after taking multiple hits from the arrows on its thick hide . Its cries resounded throughout Golden Court Mountain .

Lu Zhou looked at the poisonous gas in the sky . He said, “Elder Hua, Six Compatible Seal . ”

Hua Wudao nodded and took a step forward… When his foot touched the ground, an Eight Trigrams appeared under his feet . Six scripts emerged from his body . Then, the remaining three scripts materialized out of thin air . The nine great scripts; heaven, earth, life, death, water, fire, being, non-being, and separation spread out . With Hua Wudao at the center, the Six Compatible Seal expanded outward . It immediately formed a thin screen that grew in size . This move was not used for defense . Instead, it was meant to scatter the poisonous gas .

Like an ever-expanding bubble, the poisonous purple gas was pushed by the Six Compatible Seal toward the horizons .

Roar!

The mount wailed in anger when it saw the poisonous gas being pushed away . Its frenzied state seemed to intensify . It did three laps in the air as it roared fiercely and blew out another wave of poisonous gas downward .

“Master, send Bi An out to deal with it!” Little Yuan’er who was nearby pointed at the mount with one hand while the other hand rested on her hip . It had to be said that her suggestion was a good one . Bi An should not have a problem dealing with that beast .

Lu Zhou was just about to summon Bi An when Shan Yunzheng shouted and leaped into the air . She hovered a few meters in the air with a sharp look in her eyes . “Livestock!” She conjured up an arrow . The bow in her hand was as thick as a city wall ballista . The tip of the energy arrow seemed to be glowing red with heat .

The others were also shocked when they saw this energy arrow .

This showed that her Six-leaf cultivation base was genuine since she could conjure up an energy arrow like that .

Shan Yunzheng loosened her fingers .

Boom!

The energy arrow sailed in the air…

Perhaps, the beast sensed the threat . It immediately stopped spewing the poisonous gas and turned around to flee . If the beast got far enough, no cultivator would be able to catch up to it .

Fortunately, the energy arrow was already upon it .

Bam!

The shot landed true on the mount .

Roar!

The mount felt a jolt of pain and began to howl . Its energy scattered . “Just how shocking is this mount’s defensive power?” Hua Wudao exclaimed in wonder .

Shan Yunzheng had practically placed all her power behind that energy arrow . Yet, all she managed to do was scratch the mount, not kill

it .

Shan Yunzheng was at her wit’s end . She knew that she had to kill the mount to prove that the Luo Sect did not set this up . She descended and cupped her fists at Lu Zhou and said, “Please lend me the weapon, Pavilion Master!” She was tactful and used the word ‘lend’ . Clearly, she wanted to borrow the Falling Moon Bow .

With the Falling Moon Bow, her range would be extended, and the might of her attacks would intensify . The speed of her arrows would become more terrifyingly fast as well .

Alas, Lu Zhou shook his head and said, “Someone’s controlling this mount . ”

The mount was circling above them in the sky . Since it had experienced that powerful attack . It seemed to realize the attack was not able to kill it . Therefore, it began spewing poisonous gas again from the distance .

The wind carried the poisonous gas toward the Evil Sky Pavilion again .

“No wonder it’s so cunning . As it turns out, someone’s controlling it!” Pan Zhong exclaimed in surprise .

Shan Yunzheng frowned and said, “Elder Lu, how’s that possible?”

“This mount’s name is Ba Wu . It’s the mount of the senior brother of the Lou Lan elite, Mo Li . I fought against it once on the Lotus Dais . ”

Mingshi Yin, Duanmu Sheng, and Little Yuan’er had some recollections of the deep growl they heard on the Lotus Dais . They were shocked by their master’s revelation .

Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he looked at the mount, Ba Wu, in the skies . This mount was capable of withstanding a blast from the Blue Lotus’s energy . Indeed, its defensive powers were shocking . It might not be the best idea to summon Bi An . With someone controlling it, Ba Wu was just like a human . It might even cast spells . “Pavilion Master, please lend me the weapon,” Shan Yunzheng said urgently .

Lu Zhou tossed the weapon over and said, “The Luo Sect should take care of its own mess . ” In truth, he wanted to see just how powerful Ba Wu’s defenses were . He wanted to determine just how much of the Heavenly Writing power he would need to use to kill it . If that was not feasible, he would consider using the Deadly Strike Card .

Shan Yunzheng was clearly more confident now that the Falling Moon Bow was in her hand . She shot into the air again, holding the Falling Moon Bow in her left hand . Layers of energy wrapped around the Falling Moon Bow . It seemed to be covered in a layer of golden light . With the golden light, the dainty Falling Moon Bow seemed to have increased in size . The energy bow that was superimposed on the physical bow was as tall as Shan Yunzheng .

Shortly after, the Falling Moon Bow buzzed .

Shan Yunzheng pulled on the bowstring with the fingers of her right hand . A more powerful energy arrow materialized . This was a Six-leaf Godly Archer .

Everyone’s attention was on her arrow .

Hua Yuexing was fixated on it as well . She gave up on firing her shots . No matter how great she performed, she could not compare to Shan Yunzheng with the Falling Moon Bow .

The atmosphere was tense .

Shan Yunzheng held her breath and focused . Her sharp eyes were locked on the circling Ba Wu . Her energy arrow was completely formed .

Bam!

She loosened her fingers .

The Falling Moon Bow gave a distinct twang .

As the bow sang, the energy arrow shot toward its target .

Ba Wu sensed a threat just like it had moments ago . It suddenly stopped and made a unique move . It curled up on itself like a porcupine . Its hairs stood on end .

Bam!

Energy scattered everywhere .

The energy arrow hit Ba Wu . A wail resounded across the skies .

The purple energy was visibly scattering from Ba Wu’s body .

“It’s hurt,” Pan Zhong said .

“Unfortunately, it’s not dead . It intends on running away!”

Ba Wu was frightened now . It did not expect a powerful Godly Archer to be present on Golden Court Mountain . Its master seemed to have changed his original plan . It turned tail and ran away at top speed .

Shan Yunzheng was dissatisfied with her shot . In her opinion, even if that shot did not kill Ba Wu, it should have dealt a heavy damage to it . She pulled on her bow again, firing another energy arrow .

Bam!

Ba Wu was too far away . When the arrow landed on its target again, it clearly packed less of a punch than the previous hit .

“Livestock!” Shan Yunzheng was feeling pressured . The more flustered she was, the more difficult it was for her to unleash her strength . Her aura and utilization of Primal Qi became chaotic and lost their rhythm .

“This is bad . It’s getting away . ”

Ba Wu was hurt . It was sprinting away wildly on purple clouds .

Shan Yunzheng shook her head helplessly . However, she felt slightly relieved as well . So long as the livestock stopped releasing poison and caused a commotion in the Evil Sky Pavilion, she still had a chance to salvage the situation . She looked at Ba Wu’s retreating back and said, “This mount is extraordinary . Please take that into consideration, Pavilion Master . ”

“Since when did the Luo Sect collude with the people of Lou Lan?” Lu Zhou raised his hand slightly . With a surge of energy, the Falling Moon Bow broke free of Shan Yunzheng’s grasp and returned to Lu Zhou’s hand .

Shan Yunzheng was, naturally, reluctant to part with it… At the same time, Lu Zhou flew into the air . His movements were not quick . In fact, they could be considered as insignificant .

“What’s the pavilion master trying to do?”

The others were looking at Lu Zhou with anticipation .

Lu Zhou wielded the Falling Moon Bow with his left hand . He looked in the northwestern direction…

The Falling Moon Bow shook .
