Chapter 767: The Brutal Demon Ghoul!
“Roarrrr…”
In the distance, a bestial roar echoed through the air.
Above the ancient forest, from time to time, a massive creature with enormous wings would soar past, causing the air to whistle and the mountains to tremble. Fierce birds would occasionally fly by, their eyes as crimson as a blood moon.
Su Yi did not fear these demon beasts, but he was unwilling to waste time. If he could avoid them, he would simply choose to do so.
In the dark night, Su Yi had to reduce his speed.
Ahead lay an unnatural quiet without a single sound, and this silence made Su Yi even more alert.
“Boom!”
Just as Su Yi was intensely focused, a sudden tremor erupted ahead. With a muffled sound and a burst of light, a surge of energy exploded forth, and a figure swiftly emerged.
The figure appeared disheveled, wearing a flowing white robe, with wild hair and gleaming eyes. Upon seeing Su Yi, surprise flickered in their gaze, but without hesitation, they formed hand seals. A claw-like hand imprint materialized and reached directly toward Su Yi.
Su Yi’s expression shifted as he raised his arm and shook it. A fist imprint appeared and clashed directly with the incoming attack.
“Bang!”
With a muffled collision, energy erupted as both figures were pushed back amidst flying sand and rolling stones.
“Ah, you’re the real Yi Su, I made it out!”
As the figure stumbled backward, joy instantly lit up his face. A remarkably handsome countenance beamed with a curved smile, yet his complexion remained as pale as ashes. His disheveled hair enhanced his distressed appearance, and a faint trace of blood stained the corner of his lips.
“It’s you!”
Su Yi was startled, for who else could it be but Xu Chen? They had clashed merely two hours ago, and now they met again.
“Be careful, there’s a magical realm here that’s extremely dangerous. I barely escaped just now.”
Xu Chen swallowed a pill, warning Su Yi.
He had stumbled upon a magical realm that had proven extremely formidable, even wounding him. When he first saw Su Yi, he had mistaken him for an illusion.
Su Yi’s heart stirred as he observed Xu Chen’s disheveled state. He had already begun to understand the situation, having experienced such illusions before. Undoubtedly, the magical realm Xu Chen had just encountered must have been even more terrifying.
“Thank you.”
Su Yi expressed his gratitude for Xu Chen’s warning.
“Don’t mention it, though that dreamland was indeed treacherous.”
Xu Chen managed a weak smile, clearly exhausted and injured.
“Are you alright? Do you need to rest and recover for a while? I can assist you, Dharma Protector,” Su Yi offered.
“Very well, I shall make an effort. Just wait two hours for me.”
Xu Chen nodded without hesitation. After speaking, he immediately approached a nearby rock and sat cross-legged upon it. He smiled and nodded at Su Yi before gently closing his eyes. Then he began to focus on his breathing and meditate.
“I…”
Su Yi was taken aback. He had merely intended to exchange courtesies, but Xu Chen had proven truly presumptuous.
They were already pressed for time, needing to break through the Sanctified Martial Secret Realm as swiftly as possible. Now, however, they would need to wait another two hours.
Su Yi gazed at Xu Chen’s distant figure. Gradually, a white glow enveloped his body, merging with the shimmering moonlight. It emitted an ancient aura, carrying a sense of celestial pressure. Wisps of vital energy circulated around him, mysterious and profound.
There was no alternative. Su Yi felt helpless as he gathered his patience to speak. He reluctantly waited, knowing he had no other choice.
Observing Xu Chen closely, Su Yi watched as he regulated his breathing and inner energy, his aura appearing extraordinary. The cultivation method he practiced was clearly far from ordinary.
From this moment, as Xu Chen’s aura permeated the area, Su Yi sensed that the cultivation method Xu Chen practiced might surpass even the Divine Demonic Ancient Verse.
The overwhelming pressure of heaven and earth, combined with the ancient aura, was something ordinary cultivation methods could not possess.
“Phew!”
Taking a deep breath, Su Yi reluctantly settled down nearby, waiting for Xu Chen. After all, Xu Chen had placed such trust in him, remaining completely defenseless, and it would be improper to depart without a word.
The surroundings remained peaceful, occasionally stirred by the night breeze, as fierce birds passed through the dark sky.
Su Yi lost himself in thought. Throughout his journey, although his cultivation had advanced rapidly, it still proved insufficient.
The night deepened as time passed slowly.
At a certain moment, Su Yi’s eyes suddenly sharpened, fixing intently on the far side of a large rock.
The night was deep and mysterious, darkness lurking behind the rock.
Soon after, a crimson light appeared, gradually expanding into a pair of enormous malevolent eyes. In the depths of the dark night, they appeared chillingly eerie.
Under the gentle moonlight, Su Yi glimpsed the true form of these immense malevolent eyes.
A colossal ferocious beast, standing twenty feet tall, was covered in spiky fur. Its face appeared grotesque and hideous, with sharp, gleaming fangs. Its head resembled a wild boar’s, emitting a dim, eerie glow.
The ferocious beast fixed its malevolent eyes on Xu Chen, seemingly drawn to his aura. However, it also noticed Su Yi.
Somehow, as if sensing Su Yi’s aura, the ferocious beast experienced a hidden sense of unease and astonishment.
Yet although the ferocious beast stared at Su Yi, its gaze held not only fear and dread. Instead, a fierce and savage aura surged within it, causing its malevolent eyes to lock onto Su Yi without wavering.
“Brutal Demon Ghoul.”
Su Yi was quite surprised to encounter such a creature.
This type of demon beast, while not considered to possess a particularly high bloodline level, remained quite unique. It possessed naturally low intelligence but demonstrated tremendous power and viciousness in battle. It fought relentlessly, never yielding.
“Wah wah!”
Glaring at Su Yi with a challenging gaze, the Brutal Demon Ghoul appeared provoked. Instantly, a furious roar erupted from its throat, and with thunderous steps and its massive form, it charged toward Su Yi amidst flying sand and gravel. A ferocious aura immediately engulfed him.
“The First Level of the Demonic True Realm!”
Su Yi’s astonishment grew at this moment. It was already remarkable for a not-so-intelligent Brutal Demon Ghoul to reach the Demonic Spirit Realm. Yet this particular beast emitted the aura of the first level of the Demonic True Realm. It must have consumed some extraordinary celestial treasure or genius to achieve such cultivation.
At this moment, with Xu Chen nearby, Su Yi hesitated to unleash the true power of the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, making it difficult to completely subdue the demon beast.
However, even without utilizing the Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique, Su Yi’s current strength remained formidable.
The Brutal Demon Ghoul moved swiftly, but Su Yi proved swifter still.
As the massive form of the Brutal Demon Ghoul approached Su Yi, ready to crash into him, Su Yi deftly evaded, moving clear of its path.
Simultaneously, Su Yi’s figure leapt forward, his fist wrapped in crimson energy, striking heavily against the back of the Brutal Demon Ghoul.
The Brutal Demon Ghoul possessed the cultivation of the first stage of the Demonic True Realm, while Su Yi, though not yet at the Yuan True Realm, wielded true strength far surpassing an ordinary cultivator at the first stage of the Yuan True Realm. His merciless punch unleashed a ferocious burst of power, instantly sending the beast flying into a massive boulder.
“Bam!”
With a muffled impact, the enormous boulder shattered and crumbled to dust. The ground cracked as fissures spread outward.
“Waaah…”
The Brutal Demon Ghoul released a scream, immediately rising to its feet, its fierce gaze locked onto Su Yi. Its blood-red eyes widened, emitting an increasingly intimidating light. Its body exuded a monstrous and ferocious aura, disturbing the surrounding void. Its fangs gleamed as it unexpectedly expelled a blood-red sphere from its mouth, carrying a mighty and savage aura as it hurtled toward Su Yi.
