149: Encounter the King

Inside the cave!

Xiao Ruobai stood up and said to Xiao Pangzi, who was still in the corner counting his treasures and muttering about whether he had lost or gained this time: "It's getting late. We should prepare to set off for the former site of the Demon Heaven Sect."

Wang Xiaopang's movements suddenly paused when he heard this, and his face instantly fell. He shook his head like a rattle drum.

"The former site of the Demon Heaven Sect? No, no! Big Brother! I heard that place is a mess right now! The major Sects are practically tearing each other apart fighting for territory!

We just killed people from the Blood Demon Sect. If we go to such a dangerous place now, aren't we just walking into a trap?"

He pleaded with a long face, rubbing his hands, and urged anxiously: "How about... we find a safe place to lay low first?

I know a place that hides a great Opportunity, definitely some incredible Magic Treasure! It's just... that place isn't very easy to get into..."

Xiao Ruobai's eyebrows twitched slightly when he heard this, and a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes.

He scrutinized the seemingly cowardly Xiao Pangzi before him, thinking to himself: How could someone who can single-handedly offend top-tier Great Sects and Holy Lands, and still be alive today, be an ordinary person?

This fatty might seem unreliable, but he absolutely shouldn't be underestimated.

A place that even this guy finds "not very easy to get into" must hold hidden mysteries.

"We're not interested in the place you mentioned."

Xiao Ruobai said indifferently, "If you don't want to come along, we can part ways here."

Part ways?!

When Wang Xiaopang heard those words, all the fat on his body trembled!

Separate? What a joke!

He was currently being targeted by the Blood Demon Sect and Glazed Holy Land!

Without these two powerful figures, he, Wang Xiaopang, would have to hide everywhere!

"No, no, no! Big Brother! My dear brother! I'll go! Can't I just go?!"

He immediately jumped up, forcing a smile that was uglier than crying, "I was just... just making a suggestion! The former site of the Demon Heaven Sect is good! Lively! Many Opportunities! I just happen to need to expand my business there! Let's go together! Together!"

As he quickly swept the items on the ground into his arms, he pledged his loyalty: "Wherever Big Brother goes, I go! I, Wang Xiaopang, am the most loyal! I'll never abandon you in battle!"

Xiao Ruobai glanced at him and said nothing more, while Fang Hanyu had already silently walked to the cave entrance.

Wang Xiaopang quickly removed the Formation Plate that concealed the cave entrance, carefully wiping it before storing it back in his ring, clearly pained by its use.

The three walked out of the cave. Outside, the sky had already darkened, and mist permeated the mountains and forests, utterly silent.

However, just as they had walked less than a hundred miles...

Boom!!!

An indescribably terrifying pressure, like a solid mountain, suddenly descended from the sky! It instantly enveloped the entire mountain forest!

The air seemed to solidify, tree branches and leaves stood still, and even the chirping of insects completely vanished.

A chilling sensation of fear, as if originating from the depths of their Souls, seized the three of them!

King Realm!

It was definitely a true King Realm powerhouse who had descended, and not even an Early Stage King Realm one!

Moreover, this pressure contained a strong Blood Demon Qi, cold, violent, and full of destructive desire!

"!!!"

Wang Xiaopang's face instantly changed drastically. It was a King Realm expert; this was terrible!

He subconsciously tried to shrink behind Xiao Ruobai.

Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu's expressions also became incredibly solemn.

Xiao Ruobai took a step forward. Although his aura remained restrained, his eyes were sharp as blades, looking directly in the direction from which the pressure came.

Fang Hanyu's hand was already on the hilt of the Primordial Sword. The sword hummed faintly, its Chaos Sword Qi ready to be unleashed.

This pressure... was more than ten times stronger than the previous Late Stage Heavenly Human Realm Xue Li! And its aura, though of the same origin as the Blood Demon Sect, was purer and more terrifying!

"Hmph... A few hiding little rats, you certainly made this Venerable One search for a while!"

A cold, hoarse voice, like metal scraping, echoed in the sky, carrying a hint of cat-and-mouse playfulness and absolute indifference.

"Killing people of my Sect, and still daring to linger here... truly, you don't know your place!"

Before the words finished, a giant blood-colored hand, covering the sky, had already condensed in the air, imbued with terrifying King Realm Law power, and mercilessly slammed down towards the area where the three were located!

Before the giant hand even arrived, the terrifying pressure had already caused the ground to crack, and the surrounding trees to turn into dust!

Wang Xiaopang subconsciously reached for the incredibly precious Small Void Teleportation Talisman.

Just at this critical moment!

Xiao Ruobai's eyes sharpened, and he let out a low cry: "Hanyu!"

Fang Hanyu understood. The Primordial Sword suddenly unsheathed half an inch!

It didn't attack the giant hand, but instead sharply slashed at a seemingly ordinary mountain wall to the side and behind the three!

Chii—!

A supremely sharp Sword Qi, yet carrying an aura of Chaos annihilation, tore through space. The mountain wall was easily ripped open as if it were an illusion, revealing a dark, narrow crack behind it that led to an unknown place!

This was clearly a secret passage that Fang Hanyu had sensed earlier with his keen Sword Intent!

"Go!"

At this critical moment, Xiao Ruobai let out a low cry. Without any hesitation, he grabbed Wang Xiaopang by the back of his collar, and his figure instantly transformed into a blurry golden stream of light, shooting towards the secret passage!

Fang Hanyu moved almost at the same time, his figure like a silver lightning bolt tearing through the night sky, following closely behind!

The two moved at extreme speed, leaving faint afterimages in their wake!

Boom!!!

The blood-colored giant hand slammed down, the earth trembled violently, dust soared into the sky, and a huge palm-shaped crater appeared, but the three had long since vanished from the spot!

"Hmm? Trying to run?"

In the sky, the King Realm figure shrouded in blood-light let out a disdainful cold snort. His figure flickered, pursuing as if teleporting, his speed incredibly fast. Each step he took seemed to cross space, rapidly closing the distance with the three streams of light ahead!

The terrifying King Realm pressure, like a maggot attached to bone, firmly locked onto the three. Wherever it passed, the mountains and forests fell silent, and all living things cowered!

"Too fast! Too fast! He's catching up!"

Wang Xiaopang, being carried by Xiao Ruobai, felt the terrifying aura rapidly approaching from behind like a primordial beast. He screamed in fright, flailing his arms and legs, wishing he could grow wings.

"Big Brother! Use the talisman! Use my Teleportation Talisman!"

"Shut up!"

Xiao Ruobai let out a low cry, activating Cant Catch Me, and his speed surged again. Faint Dragon roars echoed around him, battle Qi erupted, tearing through the air!

Fang Hanyu's eyes were cold. The Primordial Sword remained in its sheath, but an incomparably sharp Sword Intent emanated from his body, as if cleaving the air obstructing the two ahead, increasing their speed even further!

Seeing this, Wang Xiaopang gritted his teeth and desperately activated his Magic Treasure boots and life-saving secret techniques. His chubby body actually burst forth with astonishing speed, barely able to keep up with the pace of the two, though he was still being carried by Xiao Ruobai to conserve his energy.

Three streams of light in front, one blood-red shadow behind, like four meteors, they carved a breathtaking trajectory across the dim sky, moving too fast for the naked eye to discern!

At this moment, the Blood Demon Sect King Realm expert pursuing them from behind felt his surprise and doubt grow stronger.

'What is the origin of these two youngsters?'

'This speed... especially the subtle application of the power of heaven and earth in their movement technique, is so exquisite and experienced, far surpassing ordinary Heavenly Human Realm cultivators!'

'And that Sword Intent... so pure and sharp... definitely not something ordinary Sects can cultivate!'

The more he pursued, the more alarmed he became. He had initially thought they were mere ants to be easily captured, yet they were so slippery and difficult to deal with!

"Hmph! Let's see how long you can run!" The King Realm expert snorted coldly, increasing his speed by another third, suddenly closing in on the three.

Blood-light surged, and the sense of oppression grew stronger!

"Blood Prison Imprisonment! Stay for this Venerable One!"

The King Realm expert's cold voice echoed within his Domain.
