Chapter 264 Help
"Young friend, you have good potential. You actually managed to climb to the 500th step. It seems you've been training your body quite a bit."

The male cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage spoke.

Yunxi felt she was about to reach her limit, but she didn't push herself. Standing on the steps, she replied:

"I am a practitioner of both sword and body cultivation, and this is my limit. It seems that I can only stop here."

After she finished speaking, she was surrounded by a golden halo and disappeared on the steps under the gaze of the Nascent Soul cultivator.

Yunxi felt as if she had only been in a daze for a moment, and now she was in a dense primeval forest, surrounded by the chirping of insects and birds, occasionally mixed with the roars of beasts.

This immediately put Yunxi on high alert. She raised her hand and summoned the Nine Netherworld Dragon Umbrella from her hair bun, then tentatively walked toward the direction from which the roars of beasts were coming from.

As she moved forward, Yunxi also released her divine sense, and she discovered that her divine sense and spiritual power were no longer restricted.

Through her divine sense, she saw that five miles away, a group of people from a primitive tribe were attacking a huge black leopard with various stone weapons. The leopard was three meters long and more than one meter tall. When it raised its front paw to attack, it easily knocked a person away with one swipe, and the paw that landed smashed a deep pit in the mud.

The whip-like tail swept across, sending four or five more people flying. The remaining four, dressed in animal skin shorts, were desperately holding onto the rope around the black panther's neck, trying to control him.

One of the muscular men whistled, signaling for his companions to come to his aid, but Black Panther disliked the rope around his neck and was trying to free himself.

Black Panther found the four people a nuisance, so he revealed the sharp claws hidden in his paw pads and with a light slash, one of them was disemboweled and rolled to the side covered in blood.

Then Yunxi heard a scream, and a figure rushed over and fell onto the injured man. At the same time, the sound of crying reached Yunxi's ears.

Yunxi scanned the scene with her divine sense and found that the person crying was a young woman. She was wearing an animal skin skirt and a animal skin bodice, which showed off her good figure. She had healthy wheat-colored skin, but at this moment, she was already in tears and calling out to the injured man.

Because someone was injured, and because of the stimulation of blood, the black panther went berserk, and its sharp claws reached out to the others again.

This time, however, the black panther's attack failed. The man who had been whistling charged forward with a shout, wielding a stone hammer. Yunxi then noticed that his entire right arm was radiating golden light, which spread to the stone hammer.

When the stone hammer collided with the black panther's claws, it was the panther's sharp nails that broke off. A painful "howl" came from the panther's mouth, and it nimbly withdrew its claws.

The man holding the stone hammer also stepped back, panting heavily, seemingly having exhausted all his strength. But because he took the lead, the remaining men gripped their stone weapons and began to attack.

Through observation, Yunxi discovered that only attacks from men emitting golden light could truly injure the black panther. Attacks without special power were like tickling the panther. Such men were also more likely to be injured, just like the first man whose stomach was pierced.

The battle between the two sides had reached a fever pitch. Just then, Yunxi caught a glimpse of the girl who had been crying while hugging the man. She was now wielding a brown stone dagger and charging into the fray, aiming straight for the black panther's abdomen.

The girl moved nimbly; she slid to her knees and crawled under the black panther's belly, inserting the dagger into the panther's most vulnerable spot, and then roared.

The leading man seemed to understand the girl's intention. He commanded all his companions to pull desperately in one direction on the rope around the black panther's neck, hoping to help the girl deliver the fatal blow. Yunxi was also sweating for them; the attack was about to succeed when, unfortunately, the rope restraining the black panther suddenly snapped.

The leading man and his companions all fell in the opposite direction from the black panther, while only the girl was still struggling to cut open the black panther's belly.

The black panther, now free, leaped up and escaped the girl from its belly. However, the dagger remained embedded in its stomach, with blood flowing down its side. Enraged, it did not flee but instead used its uninjured paw to claw at the girl's head.

"what!!!"

The man's desperate voice echoed in the air, but the tragedy that was expected did not occur.

Yunxi finally made her move. She summoned her Nine Nether Dragon Umbrella, whose surface, crafted from dragon scales, easily blocked the black panther's claws and protected the girl who was clutching her head and waiting to die.

The next moment, Yunxi appeared beside the girl, summoned the Nine Netherworld Dragon Umbrella back into her hand, and shot the Frostbite Needle into the black panther's forehead.

After the attack was blocked, the black panther took two steps back. As the Xuanbing needle entered its forehead, it shook its head and finally collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, before closing its eyes in resentment.

Yunxi waved her sleeve and retrieved the Xuanbing Needle. Then, holding her umbrella, she approached the black panther. She wasn't sure if it was a spirit beast. Just as she was about to examine it carefully, the girl she had rescued suddenly pounced at her feet, pointing in the direction of the seriously injured man, and babbling in a language she couldn't understand.

Although she couldn't understand what the girl was saying, Yunxi could roughly guess that the girl wanted her help to save the man.

The girl seemed to sense Yunxi's hesitation. She looked around herself, pulled off a gold gem from her neck, and presented it to Yunxi with both hands, clearly intending to use it as payment.

The man with the stone hammer strode over, grabbed the girl's hand, and seemed unwilling to let her give the golden gem as payment to Yunxi.

Yunxi raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected any reward for saving the person; she just wanted to know where she was. But now it was clear that they couldn't communicate, and the other party didn't trust her, a stranger. She also had her suspicions about these people.

So she cast a spirit-detecting spell on the black panther and confirmed that there was no spiritual power on it. However, the panther's bones were very peculiar, with inscriptions that she couldn't understand. She wondered if only this black panther had them, or if other giant animals in the area had them as well.

Yunxi decided to go somewhere else to see if she could find some fellow disciples from the same sect. She turned around and took a step, instantly leaving the black panther's corpse. Just as she was about to disappear from the sight of the group of primitive people, the girl blocked her way again.

This time she didn't speak, but simply placed the golden gem into Yunxi's hand and looked at Yunxi with pleading eyes, her purpose self-evident.

The man with the stone hammer did not speak up to stop her this time, but remained wary of Yunxi.

Yunxi sensed the energy flowing within the golden gem in her hand and ultimately decided to save the person, intending to study it carefully after receiving the reward.

She stepped to the injured man's side. At this moment, the man's face had begun to turn blue, and he was clearly breathing more out than in, as if he would die at any moment.

She first released a burst of spiritual energy to protect the man's heart meridian, then looked at his lacerated belly and internal organs. She summoned the Xuanbing Needle from her dantian, made a hand seal to draw out a thin, hair-like ice thread from the end of the needle, and then began to stitch up the wound under the watchful eyes of the girl and the man.
