Chapter Five: The Thunderclap of the Five Thunders

  Bi Fan's soul was still unsettled, and he felt a lingering fear. The demonic beast in the canyon might not be just an ordinary demonic beast; perhaps it had already become a yao beast.

  Although there were many precious spiritual medicines inside the canyon, Bi Fan temporarily suppressed his greed and began to walk out of the passage.

  Bi Fan's memory was astonishing. Just now, following the demonic leopard in, he had already memorized the road. When going out, he even more carefully remembered the route, making it convenient for him to come again in the future.

  There are too many rare and precious spiritual medicines inside the canyon. Bifan can't ignore them, he just needs to wait until his strength increases before entering the Grand Canyon again.

  Out of the secret passage, Bi Fan climbed up a tallest tree, carefully identified the direction and firmly remembered it in his heart.

  Everywhere are towering trees, it's hard to remember this place, Bi Fan walked around the surroundings and made some marks.

  Bi Fan made sure he had remembered the location of the Grand Canyon, took a last look at it, and reluctantly left.

  Fortunately, Long Diao had fallen into a deep sleep; otherwise, upon discovering so many spiritual herbs, she would have definitely been reluctant to leave.

  Just leaving the Grand Canyon not far away, Bi Fan met a human being.

  Three human youths treaded cautiously through the jungle. They were not weak, all of them being strong practitioners at the Innate Boundary.

  "This demonic realm is truly not a place for humans to stay, I really miss the wind, flowers, snow and moon outside." A young man in brocade clothes whispered.

  The burly youth said: "Ling Shao, as long as one can become an inner disciple, what's there to fear about not being able to taste beautiful women?"

  The young man in brocade clothes smiled and said, "That's natural. If we're lucky enough to meet the guy who killed Jiang Sheng, that would be great. A reward of 1,000 crystal stones is enough for us to go to Lichun Garden many times."

  "The demonic realm is too vast, I'm afraid it won't be easy to run into each other."

  "As long as we can meet him, we can easily take him down." The burly young man was full of confidence.

  Bi Fan hid in the distance, listening very clearly to their conversation, and knew that the person they were talking about was himself.

  "It seems that Jiang Sheng has offered a reward in order to avenge himself, and has suffered a great loss of blood." Bi Fan's expression changed slightly.

  However, those who enter the outer periphery of the Demon Realm for training are mostly powerful beings below the Spiritual Wisdom Realm, and Bi Fan is not afraid.

  No one knew where those three people came from, and Bi Fan didn't plan on making enemies, so he let them leave.

  But heaven did not follow human wishes. Behind Bi Fan, a black giant python as thick as a bucket suddenly appeared, and this guy was not easy to deal with.

  Bi Fan had previously taken Bì Luò Dān, and the medicine was still in effect. To be on the safe side, he took out another pill of Bì Luò Dān and put it in his mouth.

  The giant python of the jungle is not only incredibly powerful but also has a deadly venom as its most lethal weapon.

  A giant python appeared, Bi Fan couldn't continue hiding, quickly ran forward, first pulling open a distance then speaking.

  The three people who spoke earlier had not gone far and returned after hearing the noise.

  When they saw the giant python, they were shocked on the spot and immediately prepared to escape.

  "Look, the giant python is chasing that person, isn't he the one Jiang Sheng put a bounty on to kill?" the robust youth shouted loudly.

  "It really is, just like the portrait." The young man in brocade exclaimed in surprise.

  "What shall we do, Ling Shao?" The three of them looked at the young man in brocade clothes as the robust youth asked.

  The young man in brocade clothes flashed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and finally made up his mind: "We hide first, wait for that person to be injured by the giant python, and then take him down at once."

  "Ling Shao's brain is really fast, he can come up with such a brilliant idea." Another slightly chubby boy flattered.

  The three of them hid quietly in the bushes, silently watching the battle between Bi Fan and the giant python.

  The python was indeed formidable, its tail sweeping fiercely, and even small trees as thick as a bowl were about to break. Bi Fan didn't dare to confront it head-on at all.

  Moreover, the python's body was incredibly robust, and the Flowing Light Sword only left white marks on its surface, unable to cause any harm to the python.

  Bi Fan practiced both advancing and retreating, becoming more and more proficient in the Qingyang Fufeng Sword Technique.

  He had actually discovered those three people earlier and had already thought of a plan.

  "Bang!" In a split second, the giant python's tail whipped Bi Fan.

  Bi Fan spat out a mouthful of blood and borrowed momentum to fly far away.

  As soon as he landed, Bi Fan covered his chest, which had been punched, and stumbled towards the place where the three young men in brocade clothes were hiding.

  "Could it be that he discovered we were hiding here and intentionally lured the giant python over?" The young man in brocade frowned.

  "It can't be, looking at his appearance, he's heavily injured and has already become frantic." the robust youth said.

  "I hope so!" The young man in brocade sighed: "Fortunately, he's already injured, otherwise it would be a big trouble."

  The giant python made a successful strike and saw Bi Fan wanting to escape, so it chased after him tightly.

  The three young men in brocade clothes could no longer hide, suddenly bursting out and flying out, a series of attacks fell on the giant python.

  Actually, they wanted to get rid of Bi Fan first, but unfortunately, Bi Fan's escape route was some distance away from their hiding place, so they couldn't launch a sneak attack.

  The three men worked together seamlessly, with a series of precise and continuous strikes. Unfortunately, they did not inflict fatal injuries on the python, but only managed to slash open a large gash on its abdomen.

  "Hiss..." The giant python was enraged, its tail sweeping wildly, destroying all the small trees and bushes around it.

  The slightly chubby boy's movements were not agile enough and unfortunately got picked.

  He flew out and crashed into a big tree, falling to the ground.

  He has already breathed out more and inhaled less.

  "Little Fatty!" the robust youth shouted loudly.

  The young man in brocade clothes had no expression on his face, his eyes staring at the giant python, and he was already preparing to retreat.

  This giant python should have the strength of a brave warrior and is difficult to deal with.

  The slightly fat boy was seriously injured, and the pressure on the brocade boy and the fierce boy doubled, making their chances of winning even smaller.

  Bi Fan hid himself away. In fact, he had pretended to be injured earlier. He did it on purpose, in order to lower the vigilance of the three young men in brocade clothes towards him.

  Let's see who will reap the benefits in the end.

  The giant python spewed out a mouthful of toxic fog. The young man in brocade and the burly young man hastily took antidotes and continuously retreated.

  The python is even more ferocious, its thick tail like an iron rod, sweeping, chopping, smashing...

  The young man in brocade and the vigorous young man did not even have a chance to catch their breath, extremely disheveled.

  The young man in brocade clothes was furious, gritting his teeth and saying: "Go die!"

  All he saw was him throwing out a black, thumb-sized thing, and then quickly retreating.

  "Fall back!"

  In fact, without his reminder, the vigorous youth obviously knew the severity of that thing and retreated quickly.

  The slightly chubby boy was seriously injured and couldn't move at all, revealing a desperate look on his face.

  Bi Fan didn't know what that dark and slippery thing was, seeing how afraid they were, he conditionally retreated to a distant place.

  "Boom!" A loud explosion.

  A massive explosion shattered the towering trees around them, and the blast wave sent both the brocade-clad youth and the burly youth flying.

  The slightly fat boy was even more miserable, with countless wooden chips stuck in his body, and he had already died to the point where he couldn't die anymore.

  Bi Fan was blown farthest away, but also got a somersault from the air wave, his ears buzzing with sound, temporarily deafened.

  "This is... too fierce! Could it be the Five Thunderclap?" Bi Fan was shocked beyond measure.

  Wu Lei Hong is a skill cultivated by the Wu Lei Sect, one of the nine major sects in the world today. The power of the Wu Lei Hong varies depending on the individual's strength.

  Just now this Five Thunder Bomb, its power is probably equivalent to a full-force blow from a strong expert in the Giant Power Realm.

  Bai Fan didn't believe it at first when Jing Feng mentioned it, but now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he has to admit that it's indeed impressive.

  The python was in the very center of the explosion and probably didn't survive. At this time, the thick smoke had not yet dispersed, and the specific situation is unknown.

  "Cough, cough..." The young man in brocade and the robust young man helped each other up.

  The burly youth said: "Ling Shao, you used all five thunderclaps to save your life, this time you've lost big."

  "As long as I can kill Gang Seung and get the reward, or if there's a crystal core inside the giant python, then I'll be fully compensated." The young man in brocade said.

  The burly youth said: "I'll go take a look and see if that guy was blown to death or not. He was already injured earlier, maybe we won't even need to lift a hand."

  The two of them were now excited beyond compare, completely forgetting about their companions and not caring whether the slightly chubby youth was dead or alive.

  At this time, the dust has settled and the center of the explosion can be seen clearly.

  The giant python was gone, and all around were flesh and blood. At the center of the explosion, there was a large pit with a shining crystal nucleus lying inside.

  "The giant python is dead, and it actually has a crystal core!" The young man in brocade exclaimed with delight.

  The fierce young man didn't go find Bi Fan anymore, but instead followed Jin Yi young man and rushed towards the big pit.

  The crystal core is too precious. The giant python didn't fight for long, and the loss was not great. The crystal core was filled with spiritual energy. Getting this crystal core, Wu Lei's losses were all recovered, and he could also make a big profit.

  The young man in brocade was about to jump down and pick up the crystal nucleus himself.

  Bi Fan suddenly appeared inside the large pit and took away the Crystal Core.

  "You little brat, how dare you steal our crystal core? You're dead for sure!" The burly youth was furious.

  Bi Fan sneered: "Is that so? Even if I didn't snatch your crystal core, wouldn't you still want to kill me for the bounty?"

  "Now that you know, go die." The young man in brocade drew his sword and stabbed at Bi Fan.

  The fierce young man cooperated with Mò Qì (tacit understanding), launched an attack from the other side, and cut off Bì Fán's retreat.

  Bi Fan dodged with a flash of movement, avoiding the attack, then merged with his sword and charged towards the young man in brocade.

  Whirling Rain Flying Flower Sword!

  He unleashed his strongest move, showing no mercy.

  Bi Fan appeared and snatched the crystal core, having already made up his mind to kill him and silence him.

  The young man in brocade had previously fought a giant python, consuming more than half of his internal energy. Additionally, he was injured during the explosion of the Five Thunder Bomb.

  He drew his sword to block it, but unfortunately, his action was half a beat too slow.

  The sword slid across his neck, and the young man in brocade clothes opened his mouth wide, glaring with anger, his eyes filled with regret.

  "Despicable!" the robust young man shouted loudly: "You actually didn't get hurt, so everything was just your disguise, and you intentionally lured the giant python towards our hiding place."

  "Not bad, but unfortunately it's too late now." Bi Fan smiled lightly.

  Carefree Fairy Finger! Dragon and Tiger Roar Fist!

  Two consecutive fierce attacks went straight towards the vigorous young man.

  The burly youth was in a state of shock, his reaction not swift enough, and he took a blow from the carefree immortal's finger to his chest, adding another bloody hole, with bright red blood flowing out profusely.

  Immediately afterwards, Bi Fan's fist arrived again, attacking the Blood Cave and directly punching a big hole in the chest of the fierce young man.

  Bì Fán's speed was as fast as lightning, and with a flicker of his eye, the battle was settled.

  Three young men had nothing but the brocade-clad youth having a Qiankun bag, all of their items were taken away by Bi Fan.

  Bi Fan threw the three corpses into a large pit, covered them with some soil to bury them, so as not to be eaten by demons and beasts, and end up with no bones left.

  It's not out of benevolence, but rather a matter of principle. We can't just let their corpses be devoured by wild beasts.

  Having settled everything, Bifan quickly left.

  The commotion just now was too loud and might attract humans and magical beasts. In Bi Fan's current state, he must cultivate to recover his inner energy.

  The battle just now ended quite quickly, but the consumption was not small.

  Moreover, Bi Fan took a hit from the giant python to lower the guard of the three young masters in brocade clothes. He was prepared early on, but still suffered minor injuries and had to recover as soon as possible.

  In the demon realm, whether it's humans or demons, they are all full of threats. Only by maintaining one's peak strength can one cope with ease.

  Bi Fan quickly disappeared into the dense forest, found a secluded spot, and began to cultivate.
