Luo Mo Realized He Was Going to Die

On the ground, Luo Mo had just caught up with Xiao Wu when Erming suddenly charged over.

A terrifying roar erupted.

They had actually caught up!

Xiao Wu was grabbed by Luo Mo and, hearing Erming's roar from behind, endured the urge to look back and stared toward the front instead.

In the blink of an eye, Daming had already disappeared into the forest.

She tightly grabbed Luo Mo's hand and followed him as they ran wildly. She did not know whether Erming's sudden order had made her forget her fear, but Daming's roar had left her in complete panic.

"Roar!"

The earth shook.

Erming let out an angry roar, and the waves of air sent the jade-like branches around them flying.

Over the past few days, he had been following the direction where the Ghost King had disappeared. He had encountered a forest along the way, but he had not found the Black-Clad Man, nor had he heard even the slightest trace of the man's voice.

Unexpectedly, he learned that Xiao Wu had once stayed in a nearby village for some time.

After finding out that Xiao Wu's elder sister had been taken to Dingding City, he had immediately rushed after her toward Dingding City.

During the search, he learned that Xiao Wu's elder sister had entered the Soul Beast Forest. He had no choice but to sneak into the forest.

The two beasts entered the forest and searched for a long time, but found nothing. Erming suddenly sensed Luo Mo's aura nearby. Before he could approach, he saw the Black-Clad Man launch a sneak attack on a soul beast, then immediately flee.

Daming immediately rushed over after sensing the Black-Clad Man's presence, while Erming continued searching the forest.

However, it was only at that moment that he sensed Xiao Wu's aura nearby. Following the direction of the aura, he looked over and saw that it actually came from a human man.

He froze for a moment, then narrowed his eyes.

Could it be that Xiao Wu's elder sister had encountered misfortune, and her soul bone was now on that human boy?

"Roar!"

A furious roar shook the entire forest.

Erming forcefully swung his arms, hammering his fists against his chest. The immense force caused the earth beneath his feet to tremble, and he smashed the surrounding trees down as if they were nothing.

His huge eyes were filled with fury and murderous intent.

The murderous intent that had first appeared as anger suddenly became even more intense.

He stared at the human who had captured Xiao Wu.

The tears in his eyes transformed into rage. He swung his enormous fist and viciously smashed it toward the boy.

Tang San, who had been watching everything as a bystander, was filled with anxiety.

The jade-like Xiao Wu and Luo Mo were both swept into the attack.

"Stop!"

Just as Erming's fist was about to land, a black figure appeared before Tang San. A huge hammer materialized in his hand, and like a wall of iron, it blocked the giant beast's fist without retreating a single step.

Tang San stared blankly at the figure before him, overwhelmed by shock.

He noticed the hammer in the Black-Clad Man's hand. It looked almost exactly like the hammer he possessed, except that it was an enormous version.

Could this be... Father?

Tang San had yet to speak. If the Black-Clad Man truly was his father, then there had to be some reason for him to conceal his identity from everyone.

Xiao Wu stared at that hammer, unable to stop herself from trembling.

There was the Clear Sky Hammer, and there was such powerful strength. In addition, the person who had appeared to save Tang San was none other than Tang Chen.

The moment he realized that this man had taken his family heirloom, Tang San's heart filled with intense hatred.

Luo Mo noticed the hammer as well and secretly clenched his fist. He guessed that the person who had saved Tang San must have some connection with Daming, and that he had probably learned about the Clear Sky Hammer from Daming. He planned to return and report the matter to his ancestor.

At the same time, he swallowed nervously. Regardless of the man's identity, at least their lives were safe for now.

"Ha!"

A strange figure suddenly appeared behind them.

On the other side of the forest, Daming heard Erming's furious roar and realized that Erming had encountered danger. He immediately rushed over at full speed.

He arrived just in time to see Luo Mo strike Erming and watched in disbelief as Erming was sent flying.

Only then did he see the Black-Clad Man.

The child did not know whether this was the Black-Clad Man the Ghost King was looking for, but this was still good news. He did not understand why Daming was so furious that he was practically losing his mind.

"Roar..."

Soon, he sensed Xiao Wu's aura as well. However, the aura of the huge ape was not Xiao Wu's. In an instant, he thought of the only possibility. Fury erupted within him, and the imposing aura around his body surged.

"Roar!!!"

Tang Chen was stunned when he saw this scene. He could only feel his scalp go numb.

Why had this fellow suddenly become so angry?

Had he gone mad? Was he biting anyone he saw?

A ten-thousand-year soul beast had actually dared to provoke him. It seemed that this time he could finally vent his anger.

"Run!" Luo Mo shouted. "The enemy is attacking!"

The great ape suddenly raised its fist and charged at them. Tang Chen only had time to tell Tang San and the others one sentence before he turned and fled.

The three of them immediately fled toward the depths of the forest.

Behind them came the terrifying shock waves of the battle. The ground cracked inch by inch, and the trees were flattened one after another. Dust billowed everywhere.

The shock waves rolled forward, lifting enormous stones and smashing them against the three people's backs. They could only feel a scorching pain.

The commotion in the Soul Beast Forest immediately alarmed the forest's guards.

A sign bearing the words "No Entry" was quickly erected at the entrance.

At the same time, news spread upward.

The soul masters in the city who had no idea what was happening began to stir uneasily.

"What is going on? Why did the forest suddenly become so chaotic?"

"I finally managed to save up enough money. Why can't you just let me pass through?"

"What happened? Has something happened in the Soul Beast Forest?"

"White idiot! Why are you asking about the soul beasts? Run if you want to live!"

"I heard from my second wife's father that he saw two ten-thousand-year soul beasts fleeing out of the forest. One of them was the Titan Giant Ape, the king of the Star Dou Great Forest. Moreover, the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall had both sent people after them!"

"Damn! Then I won't wait here to die!"

Deep in the Soul Beast Forest.

Luo Mo and Xiao Wu had run a long distance, yet they could still feel the terrifying shock waves behind them.

"Whew... so dangerous!"

"Daming was caught in that forbidden soul skill and had already been sealed inside a void prison. After that, he had to forcefully break through it with his spiritual detection. Luo Mo could clearly see the danger and shouted, "Run toward the front. It should be safe now."

However, whether it was because Daming was enraged or because he had accidentally released the terrifying nature of his soul power...

Boom!

The center of the shock wave erupted again with a deafening explosion.

The shock waves scattered outward, and every place where they passed felt an intense tremor. The ground split open into huge cracks.

Luo Mo finally sensed that something was wrong. He poured more Soul Power into his spiritual detection, piercing through the earth.

Beneath Daming, there was actually a huge empty cavern.

"Damn!"

Because spiritual detection could not pass through solid matter without weakening, increasing its range required consuming more Soul Power. That was why, under normal circumstances, Luo Mo could only detect a radius of about three meters beneath the ground.

He had not expected danger to be hidden beyond those three meters.

Luo Mo had no time to hesitate. He pulled Xiao Wu and prepared to flee.

However, by then, it was already too late.

The ground beneath their feet collapsed, and the two of them fell with it.

"Ah! Help!"

Sensing the sudden loss of balance, Xiao Wu instinctively screamed. Her limbs wrapped around Luo Mo like an octopus.

It was obvious that she was not pretending.

"Damn it, let go! Are you trying to kill me?"

Luo Mo fell into the cavern, and Erming also fell in. At the same time, Daming's roar came from behind as he chased after Xiao Wu.
