The leopard pounced suddenly, swift like the wind, its fangs under the moonlight appeared terrifyingly sinister, as if a messenger of Hell had suddenly appeared.

Liu Zixuan slapped the tree trunk sharply, his whole body jumped directly down, and only after this shocking risk did the blue leopard strike empty!

Taking a big breath, Liu Zixuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "You beast, I originally wanted to spare your life, but seeing you so stubborn, I can only send you to the Western Heaven!"

As the words fell, a dazzling light appeared in Liu Zixuan's hand.

The Soul-Devouring Sword appeared directly in his hand. Dealing with such a beast didn't even require Liu Zixuan to use his Silver Needle Array!

With a call to the sword, Liu Zixuan's entire momentum suddenly surged, his whole aura was different from before.

The blue leopard landed on the ground, circled Liu Zixuan half a round, its senses told it that the human in front of it was angry!

But so what! It's still prey to be devoured!

Roar!

With a skyward roar, the blue leopard was like a bolt of thunder on a clear day, flashing directly in front of Liu Zixuan. It raised its giant paw and swung directly towards Liu Zixuan's neck.

"A beast is just a beast! Only knows brute force!"

Liu Zixuan snorted coldly, the Soul-Devouring Sword suddenly lifted, slashing towards that giant paw.

With a screech... splat!

A spark flashed as it collided with the paw, the sharp blade pierced directly into the blue leopard's paw!

A stream of blood flowed out, splashing into Liu Zixuan's eye!

Following that, he lifted his foot and kicked, flipping the leopard to the ground.

He maneuvered his body to ride on the leopard, thrusting the Soul-Devouring Sword towards its neck.

But who would have thought, at this moment, the blue leopard showed a human-like action.

The front two paws crouched on the ground as if kneeling like a human, its huge head also lay on the ground. It emitted a series of whimpering sounds!

Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow: "Does this guy have some intelligence?"

Cautiously he stepped off the leopard, pointing the Soul-Devouring Sword at it, tentatively kicked it, then punched, the leopard did not retaliate! Kept the same posture!

Well huh!

Liu Zixuan exclaimed in surprise: "Is this begging for mercy from me?"

The blue leopard let out a muffled sound, stretched out its tongue and licked its injured paw a couple of times. Then it looked at Liu Zixuan with a strange expression.

This made Liu Zixuan quite frustrated, just moments ago it was a majestic and murderous leopard, how come in a blink, it became like an injured little wild cat!

After probing twice, seeing the leopard no longer against him, he slowly walked over.

"Hey, big guy, let's coexist peacefully, you can't eat me, so how about I take care of your wound?"

Upon hearing his words, the blue leopard glanced at him, and then with its huge head, bumped his arm!

Damn!

This works too!

Liu Zixuan truly did not expect the leopard to change so quickly, but he still remained cautious, after all, such a wild beast might erupt with its beast nature at any time!

He fiddled with his already tattered clothes, wrapping the leopard's paw, said: "I'm going to find my treasure now, you go do what you need to do."

Seeing no reaction from the leopard, Liu Zixuan slowly retreated a few steps. As the leopard did not follow, he felt relieved and continued into the mountain, still searching for the cave.

Coincidentally, just after walking for a minute or two, he saw a glowing cave.

He chuckled: "Can't believe I found it so quickly after battling a silly leopard!"

He walked slowly towards the cave, the closer he got, the louder the noises inside became.

It sounded like crying, or was it wailing, but Liu Zixuan could distinguish that it was thunder reverberating in the cave, with the small space causing the sound's quality to change.

When he reached the entrance of the cave, he looked inside, and it was so bright it was blinding. Yet the cave seemed not very large, about three to four meters long, slightly more than a meter wide, in the middle of the cave, a Silver Needle was suspended, emitting streaks of lightning!

This principle intrigued Liu Zixuan immensely!

How exactly does the Profound Thunder Needle absorb the lightning of nature, and then preserve it?

But more importantly now, he had to consider how to obtain this Silver Needle, would he get struck dead by lightning if he rashly went in!

He didn't expect that after much effort to find the Profound Thunder Needle, he'd be halted by this issue!

Just as he was about to light a cigarette, unexpectedly, the blue leopard appeared.

It walked slowly to Liu Zixuan's side.

Liu Zixuan immediately drew the Soul-Devouring Sword: "You damn thing, still thinking of devouring me!"

The blue leopard glanced at him, yes, it glanced, the kind of glance people give when they despise another!

It means, Liu Zixuan was being despised by a leopard!

He took a sharp drag from his cigarette: "Stopping here, go ahead and despise me all you want."

He sat in place, and the blue leopard lay beside him.

This scene was very strange.

Imagine a scene, in front of a glowing cave, a man and a leopard coexisting harmoniously, such a scene... truly inscrutable!

Liu Zixuan pondered, how could he obtain the Profound Thunder Needle!

With lightning everywhere, probably could be fried to dust before reaching the Silver Needle!

He casually patted the blue leopard: "It would be great if you were human, so you could help me think of an idea, but you, besides wanting to eat people, seem to be capable of nothing else!"

Roar!

The blue leopard shook its big head, looked at him with disapproval, stood up, went to a corner of the cave entrance, and directly retrieved a pile of items.

Liu Zixuan looked closely, shocked, this guy brought out enough skeletal bones for four or five people!

He retreated a bit: "Are these all you've eaten?"

The blue leopard ignored him, but used its paw to push those skeletal bones into the cave.

Liu Zixuan frowned, "Are you telling me to test with these bones?"

He picked up a skeletal bone and tossed it inside!

A bizarre scene unfolded, those bones were immune to lightning!

The leopard then, from who knows where, found a freshly dead wild rabbit, and repeated its previous action.

Liu Zixuan again threw the rabbit inside, only for the smell of barbecue to waft right after, while the rabbit was left with only bones!

Liu Zixuan suddenly realized, the blue leopard was telling him that only skeletons could approach those bolts of lightning!

But the problem was, he, a living, flesh-and-blood person, how could he become a skeleton, if using these skeletons, they have no autonomy!

In the end, they still hadn't solved the problem of how to go inside!

No wonder, it indeed stumped Liu Zixuan!
