Strongest Soldier

"What you said is just one of them. Look, when you first started cultivating, " The true qi in your body is nothing. The true qi in your veins was so powerful. You can naturally gain sentience, so... In order to prevent being destroyed by humans, many Earth Veins chose to coexist with demonic beasts. Demon beasts would provide them with an unfixed residence, and the earth veins would provide demon beasts with strength far beyond their own kind. Therefore, you must be very careful next. After all, the earth veins that coexisted with the demon beasts... But it's very difficult to deal with."    

Lee Yuv fell into silence once again as he spoke.    

"So, it is like this..."    

Lee Hongtian muttered to himself. He immediately turned his attention to the demon beasts passing by. Unfortunately, he still found nothing.    

"Should I say that it would be strange if he was discovered so easily?"    

Lee Hongtian sighed and pinched his eyebrows helplessly.    

It had been about five hours since he parted ways with Zhuh Yan. During this period of time, Lee Hongtian had never stopped for even a second. He had been using up all of his remaining True Qi. He tried his best to maximize his senses, but in the end, he did not find anything.    

Lee Hongtian had also thought of giving up. After all, not to mention Liu Ying and the others who were waiting for him in Nightless City, even Zhuh Yan, who was also in this illusion, was very worried about his life.    

If Zhuh Yan died, wouldn't all his efforts go to waste?    

All kinds of thoughts lingered in his mind, making Lee Hongtian's heart beat a drum to retreat.    

"I can come to such a deep place this time. I'm sure I'll be able to do it next time."    

Lee Hongtian slowly turned around as he thought of this.    

Even if he failed to obtain the treasure and the ley line this time, he would not be able to do so. However, if Zhuh Yan were to lose his life because of this, Lee Hongtian would not have another chance.    

Thinking of this, Lee Hongtian sighed and turned back the way he came.    

However, at that moment, a surge of True Qi spread out, causing Lee Hongtian to stop in his tracks.    

"This aura is the earth vein!"    

Lee Hongtian's eyes lit up, and he quickly turned around. However, what happened next shocked him so much that he almost couldn't say anything.    

He saw that the spot where Lee Hongtian was just now suddenly seemed to have raised a small hill. The ground suddenly shattered, and the impact carried dust and dust to block Lee Hongtian's line of sight.    

Lee Hongtian covered his mouth and nose, trying his best to avoid the dust entering his nose. He opened his eyes with difficulty, and he could vaguely see a huge figure slowly crawling out of the collapsed ground.    

"Wh..."    

Before Lee Hongtian could finish speaking, he suddenly felt his waist being held by something. No matter how he struggled, he was unable to escape from that steel clamp like hand.    

"Damn it! What is this thing?!"    

Lee Hongtian muttered. He gritted his teeth and took out the medicinal Light Voice Swords. After that, he exerted all his strength and used his remaining arm, which could move freely, to clench the medicinal Lee Hongtians and chop down fiercely!    

However, what Lee Hongtian did not expect was that when the Longsword came into contact with the giant hand that was like a steel clamp, there was actually the sound of metal colliding!    

Only by forcefully suppressing the trembling of his arm did Lee Hongtian barely manage to control the medicinal Light Voice Sword to the extent that it would not leave his hand.    

"Damn it, what the hell is this?"    

Without any time to think, Lee Hongtian let out a muffled groan. True Qi surged out of his body and condensed into an invisible hand behind him, attempting to break apart the giant hand with the steel pincer.    

However, no matter how hard Lee Hongtian tried, he was unable to move it in the slightest.    

Most importantly, Lee Hongtian vaguely felt that the giant hand that was only holding onto his waist was continuously increasing its strength.    

"Lee Hongtian, quickly think about how to escape!"    

At this moment, Lee Hongtian's mind was spinning rapidly. He was trying to find a breakthrough that would allow him to escape from the shackles of the giant hand.    

Time passed little by little. The dust in the air gradually dispersed. Lee Hongtian finally saw the figure of the giant thing clearly.    

It was completely different from what Lee Yuv said. Where was the demon beast? It was clearly the essence of the earth vein!    

The one in front of him was actually a stone giant that was over four meters tall, and its entire body was flickering with an eerie dim light!    

"No wonder it felt this way. So it was me who hit the rock with an egg..."    

Lee Hongtian laughed at himself, but his smile looked a little forced.    

Lee Hongtian had always been the most helpless when it came to monsters like this. It was different from flesh and blood. No matter how strong his defense was, Lee Hongtian was confident that he could break through his defense and expose his weakness in the air.    

However, facing such a big rock lump, Lee Hongtian really couldn't do anything about it.    

Let's not talk about it anymore. Putting aside the fact that Lee Hongtian's weapon was a Longsword and not a big sword, using Light Voice Swords to attack this kind of rock would only make his arm unable to withstand the rebounding force. In the end, he would only let the weapon slip from his hand and put himself in an even more dangerous situation.    

Just that, even if he broke through his defense, And then? No matter how he attacked, the stone giant would neither bleed nor feel pain. In this way, what was the point of his attack?    

"Anyway, let's get out of here first!"    

Lee Hongtian clenched his teeth and clenched his right fist tightly. Then, he used all his strength to throw the stone giant down.    

Suddenly, with a loud bang, the giant hand trembled continuously. A small hole appeared on its finger.    

Lee Hongtian raised his eyebrows when he saw this scene. Finally, a smile appeared on his face. Seeing that the attack was effective, Lee Hongtian kept punching the giant hand that was as hard as steel.    

One punch, two punches...    

The continuous attacks made Lee Hongtian's right hand numb. After all, he was still a man of flesh and blood. His hand was cut open at any time. Blood flowed out as he spoke, and his arm flowed down.    

Even so, Lee Hongtian did not stop his attacks. Instead, he exerted more force, and spared no expense on the True Qi in his body that was as dry as a lamp.    

Boom!    

Finally!    

With a rumbling sound, the stone giant's fingers were all broken by Lee Hongtian. His fingers fell to the ground, and Lee Hongtian also broke free from his restraints.    

Perhaps not!    

The comfortable feeling in his imagination did not appear. Lee Hongtian's body was still tightly restrained! He could not move at all!    

Lowering his head, Lee Hongtian suddenly realized that even though he had broken the stone giant's finger, it did not have the slightest intention of letting him go. Instead, it tightened its grip on Lee Hongtian's waist.    

"Ugh!"    

All of a sudden, a strong force came. Lee Hongtian groaned. The pain almost made him faint.
