These were two male cultivators, both appearing to be middle-aged. At that moment, their bodies looked as though they had been slashed by countless sharp blades, with wounds visible across their flesh. One of them had even lost an entire arm.
The two men were in a sorry state as they fled through the air, their faces filled with panic, as though some terrifying creature were pursuing them.
"Quickly, save them!" The instant the two men flew out of the mist, Venerable Jie Mie's startled cry rang out.
As his voice sounded, a mass of azure light shot toward the two men in the distance like a bolt of lightning.
At the same time, Immortal Fairy Xu Ling also flashed into motion, a streak of blue-green light shooting toward the distant figures like lightning.
"It's Senior Jie! Senior, save us!"
Just as Venerable Jie Mie suddenly appeared before one of the cultivators, a cry of alarm rang out. The middle-aged man who had lost his right arm suddenly surged toward Venerable Jie Mie in delighted surprise.
Following closely behind the two fleeing men, a ferocious beast entirely wrapped in violet radiance suddenly shot out of the surging mist. With its claws bared and fangs exposed, it pounced toward the two cultivators.
It was a terrifying ferocious beast that no one recognized. Its body was three or four zhang long and shaped like a steed, but its four feet ended in sinister, razor-sharp claws. A layer of violet fur covered its entire body. Its head resembled that of a bear, and thick fur grew densely around its neck.
Its jaws opened and closed, revealing sharp beast fangs. As it snorted, masses of violet mist billowed from its nostrils.
"What kind of ferocious beast is this? Its breath actually carries Chaos aura."
