1546 Snatching Food from the Tiger’s Mouth (1)
However, no matter what the people outside thought, Lu Zijia and the others still went to the inner area of the Firerock Forest, preparing to snatch food from the tiger’s mouth.

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the guards brought out this time were all above the Foundation Establishment realm.

“Roar, roar, roar…”

Along the way, in order not to alarm the high-level spirit beasts inside, Lu Zijia and the others avoided the range of the spirit beasts and successfully sneaked into the inner area of the Firerock Forest.

However, before they got close, they heard deafening warning roars.

Liang Yingjun and the others thought that they had been discovered and their expressions couldn’t help changing abruptly.

“Don’t move!”

Lu Zijia pressed Liang Yingjun, who was about to show his spiritual weapon, down and said via voice transmission, “We weren’t discovered.”

After a pause, Lu Zijia glanced at Duanmu Heng and said, “Cousin, take them to the tree and hide. If the situation is bad, we can retreat unscathed.”

The people Lu Zijia was talking about were the Liang siblings and the other Foundation Establishment guards.

After knowing Lu Zijia’s identity, Liang Zongxing and the others were even more convinced of her.

After all, Lu Zijia was a Golden Core Patriarch in her previous life and a mighty figure who almost advanced to the Nascent Soul realm.

Hearing Lu Zijia’s instructions now, Duanmu Heng and the others did as they were told quickly even though they were a bit worried.

“Jia’er, what’s going on inside?” After Duanmu Heng and the others hid, Liang Zongxing asked via voice transmission.

Even though Lu Zijia’s current cultivation level was only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm, her soul power was above Liang Zongxing’s.

So, the range of her soul power was naturally wider than Liang Zongxing’s.

“The Earth Fire Nether Bamboo is about to mature. The spirit beasts guarding the surroundings are showing signs of stirring,” Lu Zijia replied.

“We can’t wait for the Earth Fire Nether Bamboo to mature.”

Mu Tianyan looked in the direction of the beast roars and a few cold glints flashed through his deep eyes.

Lu Zijia immediately understood what he meant and nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Spirit beasts aren’t humans. Once the spirit beast gets the thing and senses danger, it will definitely swallow it immediately.”

In the world of spirit beasts, there was no concept of taking pills after refining spiritual plants into pills.

Unless the spirit beast felt that it couldn’t withstand the medicinal power of the spiritual plant, it would immediately swallow it.

So, there was a saying in the cultivation world: You want to snatch food from the mouth of a spirit beast? Dream on!

“Let’s set up the illusion array first according to what we discussed before and think of a way to lure those spiritual beasts into the array formation. How about that?” Lu Zijia asked the two of them.

Mu Tianyan and Liang Zongxing naturally agreed. The next moment, the three of them quickly dispersed.

Two hours later.

A small illusion array that fused with the killing array was completed jointly by Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan.

“I’ll go attract the spirit beasts. Be careful.”

Seeing that the array formation was set up, Liang Zongxing, who had been paying attention to the situation of the spiritual beasts in the inner area, sent a voice transmission to the two of them.

Lu Zijia nodded. “Uncle, be careful too.”

“Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar!”
Not long after Liang Zongxing left, Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan, who were also hiding, felt a violent earthquake, as if the ground was about to collapse.

Even though Liang Zongxing was a new Golden Core cultivator, he was still a genuine Golden Core cultivator. It was naturally not a problem for him to leave a group of Foundation Establishment spirit beasts behind.

Looking at the group of peak Foundation Establishment spirit beasts that were twice as many as they expected, Lu Zijia immediately broke out in cold sweat for Liang Zongxing.
