Chapter 860: Collecting 'Immortal water'
Shun Long could sense that this leopard in front of him was actually no different from the previous white leopard he had killed since it was also emitting the aura of a middle rank 6 magic beast.
Waving his right hand, Shun Long then took out the black sword from the 'Stone of Time' and held it tightly with both hands, before he swung it downwards without any hesitation.
A thread of sword qi suddenly emerged from the edge of the black sword in the next moment before it headed straight for the white leopard's neck.
''ROOOOAARRRRR!''
The white leopard's figure that had just been condensed let out a threatening growl as soon as it sensed the terrifying thread of sword qi that was about to strike its neck, before it turned around and stared at Shun Long with its intelligent-looking eyes that seemed to be hiding hints of malice inside them.
Although the white leopard could sense that Shun Long was just a peak rank 3 Dao King and he should be nothing more than an ant against a middle rank 6 magic beast like itself, it could also sense clearly that this thread of sword qi wasn't something that it could ignore since it was capable of taking its life.
Kicking the ground with its 2 front legs, the white leopard's figure turned into a blur as it easily dodged the thread of sword qi that was heading for its neck, before it shot towards Shun Long like a white arrow that had just been released.
In fact, the white leopard was so fast, that most early-stage Dao Kings wouldn't even be able to follow it with their eyes and would have to rely on their soul sense if they wanted to stand a chance against it. Only middle or late-stage Dao Kings would be able to track it down with their own eyes and be able to react in time.
However, in this place where soul sense was completely restricted, the white leopard was an apex predator that could easily hunt down almost any prey.
Other than some extremely powerful late-stage Dao Kings or some peak sixth-stage body refinement cultivators, no one else would dare to take it lightly.
And yet, Shun Long didn't seem to be startled by the white leopard's speed, as his golden eyes stared calmly at the leopard's figure that had already crossed more than half the distance between them, while staring at him with its light-yellow eyes that were filled with cruelty and killing intent.
''Master... it seems that this 'Illusion oasis' is actually one enormous formation.''
Inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time' Little Black said after a few moments of silence, without paying the slightest bit of attention to the white leopard that had already arrived in front of Shun Long and was about to strike his chest with its massive claws.
Staring at the white leopard in front of him, Shun Long had a calm look in his eyes as he abruptly vanished from the spot he was standing on, appearing right behind the leopard, before he mumbled to himself in a low voice that quietly reverberated throughout the fog-filled forest
''Monarch's Domain.''
The invisible figure of an hourglass instantly expanded from his body, forcibly slowing down the flow of time around Shun Long.
Clutching the black sword with both hands, Shun Long swung it downwards at full strength as he chopped it straight towards the white leopard's unprotected neck.
The white leopard that had just missed its attack was about to turn around the moment it sensed Shun Long appearing behind it, but before it had enough time to react, a terrifying slash of black-colored sword qi effortlessly severed its head from the rest of its body, causing its figure to abruptly turn stiff before it collapsed on the ground with a 'thud'.
Moments later, Shun Long saw the white leopard's collapsed body that had started to turn back into white fog, before it quickly began to gather together, slowly turning into a single, translucent drop of water.
''ROOOOAAAARRRRRR!''
''ROOOOOOAAARRRRR!''
And yet, before Shun Long had enough time to collect this drop of 'Immortal water' in front of him 2 furious roars that were filled with killing intent suddenly sounded from his left and right respectively, as the auras of 2 middle rank 6 magic beasts assaulted him practically at the same time.
Hearing the 2 familiar-sounding roars that were almost identical to the white leopard's that he had just killed, Shun Long gave up on collecting the drop of 'Immortal water' that was floating in front of him and turned around to face the source of these roars.
Staring at the 2 white leopards that had just appeared and didn't look any different from the first one, Shun Long narrowed his eyes for a moment, before his body disappeared on the spot, as he used 'blink' once again to appear right in front of the first of the 2 leopards.
Less than a minute later, silence had once again filled the eerie, fog-filled forest, as Shun Long stared at the 3 drops of 'Immortal water' that he had just collected and placed them inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time', before he began to make his way deeper inside the forest.
The deeper into the forest he headed, the more powerful the pressure around him seemed to become, and the more white leopards seemed to be appearing.
And yet, these white leopards that could threaten even those rank 5 and rank 6 Dao Kings couldn't even last against a single slash of sword qi, before their bodies turned into drops of 'Immortal water' that Shun Long happily collected and stored inside the 'Stone of Time'.
As for the ever-growing pressure, Shun Long decided to completely ignore it as he made his way even deeper inside the 'Illusion oasis'.
Finally, a little more than half a day later, after hunting more than 200 white leopards, Shun Long's eyes suddenly lit up as he stared at the scene in front of him with a stunned look on his face.
