Chapter 812: Heading Out to Slay the Old Wolf

A moment later, the massive creature that was about the size of an elephant dug itself out of the hole.

If anyone was present, they would’ve been able to clearly tell that the beast was a rat. More accurately, it was a massive creature that was about the size of a small hill.

This rat was completely unlike any other. It was purplish-red and covered in a layer of scales that could resist the assault of missiles.

There was an eerie spiritual glow in the rat’s giant eyes. as it said, “Is he dead? I can’t even find his corpse. He must have been pulverized by the blast!”

It was even speaking the official language of the Earth Federation.

Someone from the greater Indas region would’ve definitely been able to recognize this talking rat if they saw it. It was the overbearing Purple Rat King that occupied the Indas region’s river basin.

The Purple Rat King could do whatever it pleased in Indas as the people there were fervent believers of a rat deity. Countless people from that area who did not know better thought that it was the legendary rat deity when it appeared.

The Purple Rat King could get and do anything it wanted.

However, nobody knew why this Purple Rat King would come to the Midton region from the Indas river basin.

“I didn’t expect the thing that wanted to blast me to death from behind to be a stinking rat!”

Suddenly, a voice rang out behind the Purple Rat King. The voice instantly caused the rat’s fur to stand. It was as if it had just heard the voice of death.

It immediately turned around at a speed that did not fit its massive size and stared at the person behind it.

It was a handsome young man dressed in white. The extreme levels of radiation in the middle of the blast zone seemed like it did not affect him at all.

The Purple Rat King said in surprise, “Lu Xuan! You’re not dead?!”

It was hard to imagine a rat as large as an elephant standing in front of someone and letting out a shrill scream.

Anybody else would have been frightened to death by now, but Lu Xuan was no ordinary person. He had seen many strange creatures in his previous life. How could something like that still scare him?

The Purple Rat King was in disbelief. There was a barrier all around them; it might’ve had to dig a tunnel underground to enter the area.

How did Lu Xuan manage to avert the crisis in the nick of time?

Lu Xuan did not even look like he was injured at all. He snickered, “It looks like I was indeed the target of this trap?”

He could be certain that suddenly facing the deadly threat of a collective explosion of 20 nuclear bombs was no accident after he heard what the Purple Rat King had said. On the contrary, it was a scheme that was targeted at him.

Lu Xuan had fallen for someone else’s trap.

He had been ambushed!

The person behind the trap sure was smart to use nuclear bombs like landmines. At the very least, Lu Xuan had never encountered such an attack before.

However, it was clear that the other party had found out about Lu Xuan’s route and calculated that Lu Xuan would pass through this area. That was why he buried 20 nuclear bombs here.

Still, how could the other party have known that Lu Xuan would walk through this area?

It was obvious that the incident with the Lightning-Winged Wolf King was the beginning of this trap. The other party was certain that Lu Xuan would take the shortest route to East Midton to kill the wolf.

They calculated Lu Xuan’s every step with utmost precision, but there was something that they did not factor in. They underestimated Lu Xuan’s chances of winning.

Lu Xuan had protected himself with the Chaos Heaven Stabilizer Bell and entered the Sky Ocean Secret Realm in time to avoid the terrifying attack.

Otherwise, he would have been severely injured, if not killed, when he got blasted by the nuclear bombs at such a close distance. This was even with his born Taoist aptitude and extraordinary abilities.

He was pretty much dead at this point!

The other party had also thought that, but they could not have calculated just how many techniques Lu Xuan had at his disposal. Lu Xuan’s techniques have surpassed his imagination.

Even though the other party was intelligent for having come up with such a strange attack to fool even Lu Xuan, it was still a scheme. It was not a righteous attack.

The Purple Rat King cursed when it saw that Lu Xuan was uninjured. It had just come here to confirm if Lu Xuan was dead or not. If not, it would’ve dealt the finishing blow.

Who could have expected that Lu Xuan survived without a single scratch on him?

He must have used a technique to avoid the fatal attack.

The Purple Rat King bellowed and spewed out countless jets of water. The water jets blanketed the sky as they crashed toward Lu Xuan.

The Purple Rat King managed to do anything it pleased in the greater Indas region not just because it was revered by the locals as the rat deity. Its strength was also within the Three Flower Realm.

“To think that you would dare to use such cheap tricks in front of me!”

Lu Xuan grunted coldly, then waved his hand and turned the Purple Rat King’s attacks into nothing.

It was his magic ability, the Heaven and Earth Sleeve.

In the blink of an eye, the Purple Rat King turned toward the hole it had come out from and attempted to escape. It was the hole it had dug in preparation for escape!

It knew the limits to its capabilities. Even though it was also a Three Flower Realm monster king, the Purple Rat King was definitely amongst the weakest of the other Three Flower Realm monster kings.

Lu Xuan could defeat even the peacock king and the Dark Eagle King. Those two monster kings were not creatures that anyone could afford to offend.

They were all powerful creatures at the Three Flower Realm, but one had only just stepped into the realm while the other was at the summit of the realm. The difference between their abilities was far too wide to ignore.

It knew the circumstances leading to it reaching the Three Flower Realm. It had relied on the incense in the temples around the greater Indas region and advanced to the Three Flower Realm using a unique method.

It knew exactly how powerful it currently was. How would it dare to fight Lu Xuan here? All it wanted to do was spread the news of Lu Xuan still being alive out as soon as possible.

Lu coldly laughed and said, “You want to run? Do you have the power to do that?” He waved his hand and shot his Dragon-Snaring Lasso outward that hit the Purple Rat King.

The Dragon-Snaring Lasso also swept across the afterimage left behind by the purple Rat King. All of its subterfuge was useless against Lu Xuan.

The next instant, the elephant-sized Purple Rat King was pinned to the ground. It struggled with its massive body in an attempt to escape.

However, the Dragon-Snaring Lasso was the magic used by Lu Xuan to ensnare his enemies. It was top-notch binding magic in all the realms and would become more powerful as Lu Xuan’s cultivation increased.

At its highest level, the Dragon-Snaring Lasso could even trap a genuine dragon. That was how it got its name in the first place.

Lu Xuan’s current cultivation was far stronger than it was before. The Purple Rat King’s strength was unremarkable, but it would not be able to escape the Dragon-Snaring Lasso even if it was twice as strong.

“I do want to see who exactly is behind all of this, but the most important thing right now is to slay that old wolf!”
