Chapter 486
But for some reason, these demonic beasts had all disappeared now.
It was truly strange.
At this very moment, hundreds of miles away, several demonic beasts were shivering as they looked in Luo Tian's direction.
"Great King... what was that just now? Such a terrifying killing intent!" a demonic beast said in a low voice.
"I don't know, but no matter what it is, it's definitely not someone to be trifled with!" a demonic beast at the Return to Ruins Realm was also trembling all over.
Just now, when Luo Tian killed that demonic beast, he had accidentally released a bit of killing intent.
Although it was only a little, it had alarmed the demonic beasts within a hundred-mile radius.
Especially demonic beasts at the Mystic Penetration Realm or above.
The spiritual senses of these guys and their sensitivity to killing intent were far stronger than those of humans.
So almost in an instant, they had fled.
Soon, the night deepened.
Along the way, Luo Tian and the others hadn't encountered any demonic beasts, nor had they found any Grade Four spiritual herbs.
However, the youngest, Zhang Yun, couldn't hold on anymore.
So they decided to rest temporarily and set off again after dawn the next day.
Zhang Yun was young, and although she wasn't pampered at home, she rarely suffered the hardships of such long-distance travel.
Soon, she fell asleep by the campfire.
Instead, it was Zhang Qing who drew her sword by the campfire and began practicing sword techniques.
"She's just like this, a cultivation fanatic! Every day, aside from eating and sleeping, she's practicing sword techniques!" Zhao Xiong explained from the side.
Luo Tian glanced at Zhang Qing, and his heart stirred.
Sword techniques...
Come to think of it, aside from the Heavenly Dao cultivation method, he hadn't learned any other cultivation methods or martial arts.
On this trip to the Northern Territory's Shencheng, if he didn't want to expose his identity, it would be better to learn a few other martial arts to deal with things.
Just as Luo Tian was thinking, Zhang Qing had already sheathed her sword and returned to the campfire.
"Zhang Qing, what is the name of this sword technique of yours?" Luo Tian asked.
Hearing Luo Tian ask, Zhang Qing said proudly, "This sword technique of mine is called the Rainstorm Sword Technique!"
Luo Tian nodded and said, "I wonder if there is a sword manual; could I take a look?"
Hearing this, Zhang Qing was stunned.
She did indeed have the manual for the Rainstorm Sword Technique.
However, this manual was something she had saved money for a long time to buy through her father.
It had always been her proudest skill.
Now that Luo Tian was asking to borrow it, she felt a bit hesitant.
Luo Tian also saw her thoughts and smiled, "I was just asking casually."
He also knew that cultivation methods and martial arts were scarce resources.
It was reasonable for people not to want to pass them on.
And Zhang Qing, hearing this, blushed instantly.
"Damn it, Zhang Qing, oh Zhang Qing! Are you confused? He saved your life, and you're not even willing to let him see the manual? You're truly a jerk!"
Scolding herself in her heart, Zhang Qing immediately took out a sword manual from her spatial ring and handed it to Luo Tian with both hands.
"What are you saying, Brother Tian? You saved my life; this mere sword manual is a gift to you, Brother Tian!" Zhang Qing said.
Luo Tian smiled slightly and didn't decline, taking the manual, reading it ten lines at a glance, flipping through it roughly, and then returning it to Zhang Qing.
"Many thanks." Luo Tian smiled.
"Ah?"
Zhang Qing was stunned.
She had originally thought that even if Luo Tian didn't want her sword manual, he should at least study it for a while, right?
But, in the time it took to flip through it, it was only a few seconds, and he had already returned it to her?
Could it be that he was angry because of her hesitation just now?
Thinking of this, she felt even more self-reproach.
"Brother Tian, I have already memorized this sword manual; let me give this copy to you!" Zhang Qing said.
Luo Tian shook his head and said, "No need, I don't need it anymore."
Indeed, Luo Tian really didn't need it anymore.
It wasn't because he didn't like this Rainstorm Sword Technique.
It was because Luo Tian discovered that he had already learned it after flipping through the book.
In the time it took to talk, he had savored it once more and had already mastered it.
There was no helping it; with strong soul power, reading ability would also increase.
And because of the Nine Volumes of Heavenly Books, Luo Tian's comprehension was also terrifyingly high.
He used to think that he was just faster than others at practicing the Nine Volumes of Heavenly Books.
But now, he gradually understood that he was fast at learning everything.
However, how could Zhang Qing know all this?
She only thought that Luo Tian was angry.
Thinking this way, she gritted her teeth and took out another book from her spatial ring.
"Brother Tian, this 'Swift Wind and Shadow' is a powerful movement technique; it's a bit difficult to practice, and I haven't even figured it out myself. If you don't like the 'Rainstorm Sword Technique', Brother Tian, then let me give this to you!" Zhang Qing said, gritting her teeth.
"Zhang Qing, you..." Zhao Xiong beside her was shocked.
He knew that Zhang Qing had almost lost her life to obtain this "Swift Wind and Shadow."
Usually, when he wanted to borrow it for a look, Zhang Qing wouldn't be willing.
Who would have thought she would give it away now!
Luo Tian, seeing this, was slightly stunned, but he didn't decline and took the book.
Watching Luo Tian take it, Zhang Qing felt reluctant.
But at the same time, she felt a sense of relief.
That moment of hesitation just now had given her a sense of guilt.
Now, she finally felt much better.
On the other side, Luo Tian opened the book in his hand, read it ten lines at a glance, and then handed it back.
"Many thanks." Luo Tian said.
Zhang Qing was stunned and said, "What? You didn't like it, Brother Tian?"
Luo Tian shook his head and said, "No, the movement technique is good!"
He really wanted to say that he had already learned it.
And in the time it took to talk, he had also mastered it.
But he figured the other party wouldn't believe it, so Luo Tian didn't say it.
"This..." Zhang Qing took the book hesitantly, her mood extremely complex.
"Haha, Zhang Qing, you are too worried about gains and losses! You don't even think about who Brother Tian is?" Zhao Xiong said with a smile.
Zhang Qing was stunned, and only then did she feel relieved.
That's right, this Tianbei in front of her had killed a 9th stage Spirit Transformation Realm demonic beast in one strike.
The other party might have just been curious and wanted to look at the book.
It was all her, thinking too much.
"Alright, let's take turns keeping watch; I'll take the first shift, everyone else hurry and rest, we still have to continue searching tomorrow!" Zhao Xiong said.
"Okay!"
After the group finished speaking, they each rested.
Even Luo Tian closed his eyes and slept in his clothes.
