Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 167, Qingqiu Kingdom
Chapter 167: Chapter 167, Qingqiu Kingdom
"Damn it!"
Qing Yan’s face changed dramatically. Although his strength was remarkable, he could manage to deal with one Low Tier Sixth Level Demon Beast, but facing two was absolutely impossible.
Bang! Bang!
The Earth Bear and the Three-eyed Demon Ape stood up, their figures towering about seven to eight meters, every hair standing on end, exuding a desolate and wild aura. The Earth Bear’s eyes resembled two gigantic millstones, emitting a sinister gleam. The Three-eyed Demon Ape was even more terrifying; its third eye turned blood red, seemingly about to shed blood.
Swoosh!
Almost the moment the Earth Bear and the Three-eyed Demon Ape stood up, Qing Yan acted.
A blue beam shot out from his fingertip, splitting into thousands in mid-air, the sound of air bursting endlessly. Dense spiritual power vortices emerged in the sky.
His target was precisely Chu Ming. Clearly, he feared Chu Ming might escape in the chaos and wanted to capture him quickly and leave. Unfortunately, Chu Ming had already been on alert.
"Blood Killing Fist!"
Blood Qi surged wildly, blood light roared. Red and yellow glows interwove on Chu Ming’s fist. Without any hesitation, all fifty-one wisps of Fire Essence within his body surged into his fist. In an instant, the fist light intensified, faintly accompanied by the cries of dragons and tigers.
Bang bang bang...
The frenzied fist force collided with the blue beam, continuous explosions ensued. Red, yellow, and blue glows shattered, illuminating a space completely, like brilliant fireworks.
"So strong!"
Chu Ming felt a tremendous force from his fist, causing him to retreat ten steps back, growing more apprehensive of Qing Yan.
Qing Yan’s cultivation was just like Qinghao’s, at the Second Layer of True Dao, but their strength differed significantly. The cultivation techniques and martial techniques they trained were incomparable in level.
Little did he realize, while Chu Ming was astonished, Qing Yan was even more shocked. Although Qinghao had mentioned Chu Ming’s extraordinary strength, he had always dismissed it, simply because he was an Inner Sect Disciple of the Celestial Travel Sect, even though he was just at a middle-lower level among Inner Sect Disciples.
However, anyone who could enter the Celestial Travel Sect was a talent among talents. It was not easy for him to reach a middle-lower level within the sect. Moreover, he trained in the "Blue Flame Profound Technique," a High Tier Profound Level cultivation technique with seven layers. Although he hadn’t reached the pinnacle, he had cultivated the fifth layer, achieving some success. In the outside world, an ordinary Sixth Layer True Dao martial artist wouldn’t be his match.
Boom boom boom!
While the two were astonished, the Three-eyed Demon Ape and the Earth Bear had already appeared in front of several people, swinging their massive arms, sweeping fiercely towards the group.
"Retreat!"
Qing Yan’s eyes changed. He couldn’t bother trying to capture Chu Ming and urgently shouted to the green-robed martial artists behind him.
Bang bang bang...
The strength of the Three-eyed Demon Ape and the Earth Bear was immense. Trees and rocks around them were as fragile as tofu, smashing into powder. Two green-robed martial artists, slightly behind in avoidance, were instantly crushed into pieces, blood mist filled the air.
Swoosh!
Chu Ming’s eyes narrowed. In a leap, he transformed into nine white phantoms, flying in all directions at high speed, his white robe billowing, strong wind radiating.
The Three-eyed Demon Ape also noticed Chu Ming, becoming more furious, revealing sharp teeth. A yellow Demon Energy Bullet shot out from its mouth, instantly clearing the surrounding air waves, gray airflows surged back and forth.
Bang bang bang... novelbuddy.cσ๓
Five phantoms were consecutively shattered by the Three-eyed Demon Ape’s Demon Energy Bullet. The remaining four frantically fled in all directions, quickly reaching a hundred meters away. At this moment, the Earth Bear and Qing Yan were in an intense battle. Chu Ming glanced sideways, seeing their grand battle with sand flying, birds and beasts alarmed. Many demon beasts in the dense forest began to flee wildly.
"Good opportunity!"
Without any pause, Chu Ming sped up, transforming into a concentrated gust of wind, darting towards the deep mountains, moving at an astonishing speed.
Qing Yan wanted to disengage, but the Earth Bear would not allow it. With a swing of its paw, it easily held Qing Yan back. Meanwhile, the Three-eyed Demon Ape was chasing Chu Ming, occasionally shooting a Demon Energy Bullet, forcing Chu Ming to dodge quickly.
"You few, go after him!"
Qing Yan, having no choice, loudly instructed the green-robed martial artists hiding nearby.
The few green-robed martial artists hesitated briefly before quickly getting up to chase. They were unsure if pursuing would be dangerous but defying Qing Yan meant certain death.
Whoosh!
A frenzied airflow roved around, making even the surrounding spiritual power seem wild. Without turning his head, with a slight sense, Chu Ming instantly dodged to the left.
Boom!
A yellow Demon Energy Bullet exploded beside Chu Ming, creating a three to four meter deep pit, splattering debris. Such an attack, if hitting Chu Ming, would cause severe injury, if not death.
The Three-eyed Demon Ape was rather heavy, making its chase speed not too fast. Chu Ming unleashed all his spiritual power, forming a thick spiritual power shield around him, making his speed slightly faster than the Three-eyed Demon Ape.
The gap between them gradually widened. Glancing at the increasingly faint silhouette of the Three-eyed Demon Ape with the corner of his eye, Chu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, he did not slow down and continued to run several kilometers before gradually stopping.
After casually determining his direction, Chu Ming headed towards Qingqiu Kingdom. Within the thousand meters radius of the Earthfire Mountain Range, many martial artists from Celestial River Kingdom and Qingqiu Kingdom hunted demon beasts for cultivation resources.
Two days passed without encountering anyone from the Qing Family. Chu Ming knew he had finally escaped the Qing Family’s pursuit. After two days of continuous traveling, he was about to leave the Earthfire Mountain Range and enter the border of Qingqiu Kingdom.
Cultivating at night and traveling during the day, Chu Ming’s spiritual cultivation slightly improved, breaking through to the Middle Stage of the Ninth Layer of the Transcendence Realm.
Another day passed, and Chu Ming completely walked out of the Earthfire Mountain Range, feeling a great relief. Entering Qingqiu Kingdom, it would be almost impossible for the Qing Family to capture him. Moreover, throughout this journey, Chu Ming found that as he moved further from the Great Yan Kingdom, the concentration of spiritual power in the air gradually increased.
The increase in spiritual power also meant a higher probability of producing strong individuals. In contrast, the region around the Great Yan Kingdom was the most spiritually barren area in the Celestial Realm. Staying in the Great Yan Kingdom for long, even a genius would be worn down, becoming ordinary.
