286Chapter 285 Racing Against Time to Escape Entering at the Last Moment

Although the time spent killing the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolf was very short, the commotion it caused was truly enormous!

Not to mention the howl and roar of the bone-eating ghost wolf.

Even if it’s just the four of them casting spells with hand seals, the unique fluctuations of their cultivation that belong to the human race are enough to alarm a great number of demonic beasts!

Humans!

Their flesh and blood are far more attractive to demonic beasts than to other demonic beasts!

In the eyes of demonic beasts, the flesh and blood of humans are delicacies from land and sea! They are highly nourishing spiritual substances!

If there were any kind of feast among the demon beasts, human flesh and blood would definitely be a top-quality dish…

Clearly, the four of them had also realized this problem: monsters were coming from all directions to hunt them down!

Therefore, Hua Yuandu’s face was solemn. While concealing his aura, he fled with all his might towards his target point!

He believed that the inheritance site set up by such a powerful expert was definitely not something that demonic beasts could approach. As long as they reached their destination, the four of them would be temporarily safe.

Yu Xian, Wei Yun, and Shen Ce were all aware of the situation and fled with Hua Yuan.

roar……

Gaa gaa gaa…

Coo coo coo…

Faintly, the roars of various monsters could be heard, as if we were completely surrounded from all sides!

“I think we don’t need to hide our presence anymore.”

Yu Xian suddenly spoke up: “There are still less than nine hundred miles to go. Let’s fly at full speed, otherwise once the monsters surrounding us pass that inheritance site, we won’t be able to get out.”

The three of them were shocked upon hearing this.

Yes!

At this moment, these demonic beasts surrounded us, forming a large circle!

The four of them are now a point in the middle of the circle, while the location of the inheritance secret realm is a point in the distance, yet it is still contained within the circle.

The circle formed by the demonic beasts quickly shrank, and once they crossed the point of the inheritance secret realm, they formed an encirclement around that point.

Then they would have no chance to escape!

They had to race against time to defeat the surrounding monsters!

Hua Yuandu immediately shouted, “Brother Yu is right! We need to hurry! We can’t hide our presence anymore, follow me!”

After saying that, Hua Yuandu raised his hand, and a fourth-grade superior sword came out with a whoosh. He jumped directly onto it and flew away on the sword, his speed increasing by more than five times in an instant!

Yu Xian was naturally well prepared. With the Spirit Step and Purple Phoenix Cushion working together, his speed was not even half as fast as Hua Yuan’s!

Shen Ce and Wei Yun also hurriedly activated their escape techniques, and at the same time, they also activated their flying magic treasures.

The two pseudo-Dan level experts’ escape speed was no less than that of Yu Xian and Hua Yuandu.

After all, in terms of cultivation and magical power alone, they were far superior to Yu Xian and Hua Yuan.

In an instant, the four of them went all out and flew away at full speed, like four beams of light darting through the dense forest, rushing towards the place of inheritance.

The journey is nearly 900 li, and if the four of them exert all their strength, they can arrive in a maximum of one hour!

However, the faint roars of the demonic beasts all around became clearer and more frequent!

Countless demonic beasts, having determined their target direction, formed a circle and pounced on the four of them!

They flew frantically for half an hour. Along the way, Yu Xian and the others encountered three demonic beasts, but they were all ordinary second- or third-tier demonic beasts. In the territory of the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolves, they were considered food for the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolves, so they killed them without delay.

But after flying more than four hundred miles away, just after leaving the territory of the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolves, an excited roar rang out from afar ahead!

Rumble!

The ground shook violently, and a huge monster crashed through the dense forest, charging straight at the four of them!

The four people’s expressions changed on the spot!

This is a monster that resembles a toad, but is a full ten and a half feet in size, covered in disgusting bumps and scales, and has a mouthful of sharp teeth!

Yu Xian recognized what the monster was at a glance!

Green City Evil Toad!

Once it reaches adulthood, it will be a low-grade fifth-tier demonic beast! Its bloodline is no less than that of the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolf!

This Green City Evil Toad is clearly an adult and an extremely troublesome fifth-tier low-level demon beast!

“We absolutely cannot let it stop us! We must kill it quickly!”

Hua Yuandu roared, “You guys hold it off for five breaths! I only need five breaths!”

“good!”

Yu Xian shouted loudly and landed with a thud, his body surging with blood and qi!

At this moment, he no longer needed to hide anything!

Regardless of Shen Ce’s decision, Wei Yun did what he did.

In any case, he had to do his best to buy Hua Yuandu five breaths, giving Hua Yuandu time to perform the unity of man and sword.

With the same combined sword and human killing move, this Green City Evil Toad, whose defense is much lower than that of the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolf, would definitely be killed in one strike!

However, its low defense means that the Green City Evil Toad is fast, has high killing power, and is covered in poison!

It’s even more dangerous than the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolf!

But no matter what, Yu Xian must buy Hua Yuan five breaths!

Because he doesn’t have Hua Yuandu’s killer move!

As for the power of the fusion of thunder magic, although it is much stronger than the unity of man and sword, it takes too long, so it is practically useless!

The Blood Suppression Technique was activated, and the Blood Burning Technique began to erupt!

Burning one’s essence and blood to gain greater physical strength is a method many body cultivators use to squeeze out their potential.

However, with the protection of the Blood Suppression Technique, Yu Xian activated the Blood Burning Technique. He only needed to burn five drops of essence blood and thirty drops of ordinary blood to push his physical body to its limit!

At this moment, his blood and qi surged, as if a blood-red aura surrounded Yu Xian, radiating a terrifying pressure!

His physical strength has temporarily reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment!

“Brother Yu! You are truly extraordinary! Hahaha!”

Hua Yuandu’s gaze sharpened, and he suddenly burst into a long laugh!

No wonder Yu Xian dared to accept his challenge back then!

After witnessing Yu Xian unleash his terrifying physical power, Hua Yuan had completely come to accept Yu Xian in his heart!

Yu Xian is a strong person whose strength is not much different from his own!

If the two of them had actually fought that day, with Yu Xian’s physical strength, if he had unleashed his full power, he wouldn’t even have had a chance to use his ultimate move of combining man and sword. There was a high probability that he would have been chased down and defeated by Yu Xian!

Wei Yun and Shen Ce were also secretly surprised, never expecting that Yu Xian’s physical cultivation strength was so terrifying!

Foundation Building Great Perfection Dharma Practice, Foundation Building Great Perfection Body Practice, and Dual Foundation Building Great Perfection of Body and Dharma!

This guy… is terrifying!

No wonder he could be on friendly terms with a sword genius like Hua Yuandu, a prodigy with a natural sword spirit root!

Because he’s also a genius and a prodigy!

Hua Yuandu stood still and began to perform the “Man and Sword as One” technique once again.

After landing, Yu Xian activated the Blood Burning Technique and charged towards the Green City Evil Toad!

The Green City Evil Toad’s intelligence is clearly no less than that of the Bone-Eating Ghost Wolf.

A hint of doubt appeared in its emerald eyes, then it suddenly flashed with a cold light, its gaze having already passed over Yu Xian and seen Hua Yuandu, whose whole body was radiating brilliant sword energy and whose finger was spinning the Tiandu Sword!

A mere Foundation Establishment Great Perfection Body Cultivator is at most a bit troublesome, but I can kill and devour him sooner or later!

But the human swordsman behind him, the sword he was preparing posed a much greater threat to me!

“Croak!”

With a roar, the Green Toad pressed down with its four claws and, using its rapid pace, leaped more than ten feet, intending to directly bypass Yu Xian and devour Hua Yuandu first!

Hua Yuandu’s expression changed, but he did not move, continuing to exert all his strength in the unity of man and sword!

He believed that Yu Xian could definitely stop this toad for five breaths!

Sure enough, upon seeing this, Yu Xian also suddenly squatted down, his muscles bulging, and with a loud thud, the ground trembled. He shot into the sky like an arrow, blocking the Green City Evil Toad’s lunge!

“Croak!”

When Green City Evil Toad saw that this human body cultivator dared to forcibly stop him, his eyes were full of malice, but he could not let this human body cultivator waste his time!

With a roar, five of the hundreds of bulging bumps on its back suddenly burst open, spraying out white pus that formed a jet of liquid that shot towards Yu Xian!

At the same time, it did not slow down and continued to take Huayuandu.

This venom is so potent that even a typical fifth-tier demonic beast wouldn’t dare to withstand it head-on.

Could the physical body of a human cultivator be stronger than that of a fifth-order demon beast?

Unless he’s courting death, he’ll definitely avoid it.

Unfortunately, a monster is a monster. Although it is quite intelligent, it overlooked the most important point.

Humans…can use magical artifacts!

The fact that the human race was able to fight its way out of the weak and vulnerable era of ancient times and eventually stand at the top of all races is certainly due to its wisdom, perseverance, determination, and resilience.

But more importantly, humans know how to use tools.

This tool, from the simplest stone to swords, spears, halberds, and even incomparably powerful magical artifacts, is no exception!

Humans used these “tools” to completely transcend the ranks of beasts, monsters, and wild animals.

Yu Xian did not slow down, but his eyes revealed a strong killing intent.

Does this toad seem to look down on itself?

Does it think it can’t cause much harm?

White pus shot out, but Yu Xian’s mind raced, and the Spirit Shield instantly appeared in front of him, blocking the large mass of venom.

Sizzle!

The poison was no small matter; even a fifth-tier superior spirit shield was corroded by the poison and hissed, with small specks of ash appearing on its surface.

However, it wasn’t a big problem in the end. After the Spirit Shield blocked the venom, Yu Xian had already arrived in front of the Green City Evil Toad!

“Give me!”

A punch, accompanied by a piercing sonic boom, slammed into the Green Toad’s chin!

“Get down!”

Caw! ?

A look of shock appeared in the eyes of the Green City Evil Toad. It looked at the Spirit God Shield and suddenly remembered the great loss its ancestors had suffered from its bloodline inheritance.

This is a magical artifact! Cunning and treacherous humans know how to use magical artifacts!

Unlike the battles between demonic beasts, which are purely flesh-and-blood combat, they at most use innate spells!

They will use powerful magic weapons!

But it had no time to think, for Yu Xian had already arrived in front of it!

boom!

With his blood and qi surging, his physical strength, which had temporarily reached the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, made this punch almost as powerful as the Great Five Elements Hand Seal!

With a loud bang, Yu Xian’s fist seemed to have broken through a sandbag, smashing directly into the Green City Evil Toad’s chin, spraying blood and flesh all over Yu Xian!

Quack!!

The immense force instantly sent the Green City Evil Toad staggering backward and plummeting, while the pain caused it to roar and scream!

A hole the size of a washbasin was blasted into its chin, and blood was gushing out like water! The flesh around the wound was twisting and turning, trying to squeeze together to stop the bleeding.

Quack! Quack!

Suffering such severe injuries and excruciating pain, the Green City Evil Toad let out a frantic scream, and the hundreds of lumps on its back swelled up, emitting a green glow!

Yu Xian’s gaze sharpened, and he began to retreat in a flash!

Just five venomous spittles had already corroded the Spirit God Shield, revealing patches of gray stains. If hundreds of these spittles were unleashed simultaneously, one wrong move and he might melt on the spot!

You have to hide if you need to. This toad has completely focused its hatred on you. Anyway, you just need to buy time and run!

Quack!!

But how could the Green City Evil Toad let Yu Xian escape!?

I was careless and let this damned human inflict such injuries on me. I must devour him!

With a roar, the Green City Evil Toad pressed down with its four claws and leaped up, covering a distance of dozens of feet in a single bound, heading straight for Yu Xian!

Even with the speed of Yu Xian’s physical strength, which was only at the temporary peak of Foundation Establishment, it was still somewhat slower!

With a furrowed brow, Yu Xian was about to activate the Hundred Steps Boots he had already donned.

With the combination of a low-grade fifth-tier magic weapon and physical strength, its speed should surpass that of this toad.

“Brother Yu! Retreat!”

Just then, Hua Yuandu’s loud shout came urgently!

Yu Xian’s heart stirred, and he immediately continued to retreat rapidly, but did not use the Hundred Steps Boots.

This slower pace compared to the Green City Evil Toad gave the toad confidence to kill it, preventing it from being distracted by other things.

In the distance, Hua Yuandu pointed at the Heavenly Capital Sword and roared, “Kill!”

The next moment, his body instantly merged into the sword!

The Heavenly Capital Sword once again unleashed an incredibly dazzling sword light, and in the blink of an eye, it thrust straight towards the Green Capital Evil Toad!

“go!”

“urgent!”

At this moment, Shen Ce and Wei Yun, who were extremely shocked, had just come to their senses, formed their hand seals, and raised their hands at the same time!

The Heavenly Capital Sword, the Water Spirit Crystal Arrow, and the Great Golden Light Slash attacked from two directions towards the Green Capital Evil Toad that was pouncing on Yu Xian in mid-air!

As Yu Xian retreated, he watched the Green City Evil Toad swooping down on him from the sky and calmly said, “Although it has some intelligence, it is still… a fool.”

boom!

With Hua Yuandu and his sword becoming one, the speed unleashed by the Tiandu Sword was indescribable. It instantly traversed a distance of tens of feet, then pierced through the Green Capital Evil Toad’s left ear and exited through its right ear, bringing with it a large clump of blood, brain matter, and venom.

Hua Yuandu was smarter this time. Instead of going head-on against the Green Toad’s head, he chose to attack its weakness and kill it with one blow.

Yu Xian stopped retreating and stood calmly. The Green City Evil Toad lost all its strength in mid-air and fell directly down, crashing to the ground. It slid to Yu Xian’s side by inertia and was then casually put into his storage bag.

There’s no time or opportunity left to divide the corpse of the Green City Evil Toad among others.

After putting away the corpse of the Green Capital Evil Toad, Yu Xian turned to Hua Yuandu, who had separated from the Heavenly Capital Sword, and said, “Fellow Daoist Hua, let’s go quickly.”

“Yes, hurry up, we can’t afford to be delayed!”

Hua Yuan took a deep breath, took out a pill and swallowed it, then used hand seals to escape into the void and continue his journey towards the inheritance site!

Although he used the technique of man and sword as one twice, his spiritual energy was greatly depleted and he was extremely tired.

But time is of the essence, and there is no time to waste!

Every moment wasted could be fatal!

Yu Xian raised his hand to dispel the Blood Suppression Technique and followed. He still had some residual power from the Blood Burning Technique, so he could run at a sufficient speed using only his physical body.

Wei Yun and Shen Ce were slightly taken aback, but quickly followed without asking about the corpse of the Green City Evil Toad.

Time was of the essence, and the two knew that now was not the time to dismember the body.

The Green City Evil Toad blocked their way, but was dealt with within five breaths. The four of them continued their frantic escape into the sky!

The roars from all around grew closer, and more first-, second-, and third-tier monsters began to appear and block the way.

Although they pose no real danger to the four of them, it will still take a little time to kill them.

“We’re almost there!”

After traveling for another half an hour, Hua Yuandu suddenly shouted, “It’s just ten miles ahead!”

Yu Xian and the other two simultaneously tensed up.

roar!

Gaa!

scare!

Guh!

But at the same time, the roars of various monsters were already very close!

It was as if they were right beside them, ready to burst through the dense forest and appear before the four of them at any moment!

“Fly at full speed!”

Hua Yuandu roared. Ten miles was not a short distance, and they could no longer hold back. The roaring sounds all around proved that those monsters were probably only three to five miles away from them!

Yu Xianling frantically activated his Body Steps and Hundred-Step Boots, channeling his spiritual energy, and used all his strength to escape.

Shen Ce and Wei Yun may not seem particularly strong, but they are quite fast. Even with their full strength, they are still keeping up closely with Hua Yuandu, not falling behind at all.

Rumble!

After another dozen or so breaths, a series of booming sounds rang out, and no less than a dozen huge demonic beasts crashed through the dense forest, having completely caught up!

These demonic beasts can unleash their full power within the Southern Wilderness Swamp.

Moreover, the demonic beast’s physical body was powerful, and its running speed was much faster than that of the four of them!

Fortunately, none of these monsters came out from the front; they appeared from three sides, as if the area in front was a forbidden place for monsters.

Seeing more than a dozen low-grade fifth-rank demonic beasts on three sides, and even two terrifying mid-grade fifth-rank demonic beasts rapidly chasing after them, the four people had different expressions.

Hua Yuan gritted his teeth and flew wildly!

Yu Xian’s face was solemn, and he also fled frantically.

As Shen Ce and Wei Yun flew desperately, a deep fear was already showing in their eyes!

A mid-tier fifth-order demonic beast is definitely not something they can withstand!

“We’ve arrived!! Monsters, halt! All who come will perish!!”

Hua Yuandu suddenly let out a long roar.

But deep in the dense forest ahead, a huge mound of earth, spanning dozens of miles in circumference, suddenly appeared, looking like… a large tomb!

This mound is covered with giant trees, weeds, shrubs, and thorns, and has long since become one with the vast southern marshland.

But there wasn’t a single monster in this mound that covered dozens of miles.

Only wild beasts and birds can survive inside; even first-order demonic beasts don’t exist there!

roar!!

A two-headed green snake, about five zhang long, and a black-feathered pheasant, about one zhang in size, came chasing after them from the side.

As they approached the large mound, the two demonic beasts roared simultaneously and unleashed their innate spells.

The green snake spat out a long green rainbow.

The black-feathered pheasant then opened its mouth and spat out a black fireball!

A mid-level fifth-tier demon beast can already comprehend its own innate spells from its bloodline inheritance, whether it be one, several, or even dozens if its ancestral lineage is powerful!

The two spells were incredibly powerful. Even from about a mile away, the four of them could feel the terrifying killing power of the azure rainbow and the black fireball.

“Don’t panic! Don’t worry about it! We’re entering the land of inheritance, so we’ll be safe!”

Yu Xian, Shen Ce, and Wei Yun almost simultaneously changed their expressions and prepared to use hand seals to defend themselves.

However, Hua Yuandu shouted loudly, stopping the three of them.

If the three of them were to actually slow down their spellcasting in an attempt to resist, they would truly be courting death.

At this moment, our only chance of survival is to fly at full speed and dive into the place where the inheritance is passed down!

Upon hearing this, the three of them disregarded everything and desperately activated their spiritual energy, as well as their escape techniques and escape magic treasures.

Fifty zhang! Twenty zhang! Ten zhang!

Enter!

boom!!

The four of them stepped in and flew into the area of ​​the mound.

The next moment, the azure rainbow and the black fireball missed their target and collided, exploding into countless sparks and the shockwave shattering several towering trees in the vicinity!

Hua Yuandu, Yu Xian, Shen Ce, and Wei Yun have all disappeared without a trace.

The pursuing demonic beasts quickly stopped, staring at the silent mounds of earth stretching for dozens of miles, their eyes filled with fear, not daring to approach even a fraction of a second.

There is a terrifying formation there; any monster that enters will surely die!

This is the blood and tears evidence left behind by countless reckless monsters over the years.

Even now, let alone fifth-order demonic beasts, even sixth-order demonic beasts dare not offend them, and they don’t even want to come!

However, the two-headed green snake and the black-feathered pheasant, upon discovering each other, seemed to see their natural enemies. Their eyes ignited with fighting spirit, and they suddenly roared and charged at each other!

Since we can’t eat humans, let’s eat them instead! It’ll be a great tonic!
