Yao Ming did not escape.
Or rather, what escaped was not his true form.
The moment Su Yu's " Palm Abyss - World-Burying Mountains and Rivers " landed, the black-robed figure who had been standing with his hands behind his back on the giant ape's head Soundless disintegrated.
It transformed into dozens of charred, rotten logs, as if struck by lightning, which fell from mid-air and landed in the leveled forest below, mingling with the soil and losing all life.
A puppet controlled by a wisp of divine consciousness.
Su Yu hovered in mid-air, looking calmly at the two demon servants who were still twitching in the deep pit, their very essence severely damaged.
He didn't chase after them.
We can't catch up.
The fact that his Spirit Refinement cultivation was sealed and his divine sense could not leave his body to lock onto anything was ultimately his biggest weakness.
This Old Devil's escape techniques are unpredictable; he's determined to leave, and I can't stop him with my physical speed alone.
So be it.
Su Yu slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, suppressing the surging power of the Floating Pagoda Blood Fiend within his body.
The newly learned " Pagoda Blood Baleful Intent Art " has a recovery ability and berserk level that far exceed expectations, but it also consumes a huge amount of resources.
The series of hard impacts just now almost drained 30% of his vital energy.
The most urgent task is to harvest.
Use enough killing to level up the new technique!
Su Yu took out the animal hide map from his pocket again, his eyes quickly scanning it before finally landing on a red dot three hundred miles away called " Severed Dragon Cliff ".
The Demon God Cult, Qing Province Third Branch.
He put away the map, a flash of lightning appeared beneath his feet, and his figure transformed into a streak of light, tearing through the clouds and disappearing into the horizon.
at the same time.
In a dark canyon a hundred miles from the battlefield.
Space distorted, and a figure in black robes staggered out—it was Yao Ming.
At this moment, he no longer possessed any of his previous arrogant demeanor.
The black robe covering him was torn in many places, revealing skin as pale as paper, and his aura was extremely weak.
"Puff!"
He could no longer hold back, and suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, collapsing to his knees on one knee.
The demon servant suffered severe injuries; his divine consciousness was forcibly severed, and his physical body was also severely damaged.
"That Su Yu! What a monster who cultivates three elements simultaneously!"
Yao Ming gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and lingering fear.
Body Refinement, Qi Refinement, Spirit Refinement... every kind of power that kid displayed reached the high level of the Earth Realm, or even surpassed it!
Is this the Earth Realm Third Layer?
Just as he was about to find a place to heal his wounds, Yao Ming's expression suddenly changed.
He suddenly looked up and gazed at the eastern horizon.
Three powerful, chilling, and undisguised auras were rushing straight toward him at an astonishing speed.
One of the auras, chilling yet carrying a strong stench of blood, felt strangely familiar to him.
It's Zhou Tong from the Blood Baleful Intent Hall!
The other two auras were also at the Earth Realm Ninth Level, one of which was particularly powerful and domineering, faintly carrying the majesty of someone who had long held a superior position.
How did they end up here?
Alarm bells rang loudly in Yao Ming's mind.
He was seriously injured at the moment, and if these three people were to see him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Without the slightest hesitation, he forcefully suppressed his injuries, deliberately surging his demonic Yao Qi, which transformed into a thicker black mist than before, completely enveloping his figure and aura.
After doing all this, he did not hide, but instead slowly rose into the air and stood quietly above the canyon, as if waiting for someone.
In just a dozen or so breaths.
Three streaks of light pierced through the air and hovered a hundred feet in front of Yao Ming, subtly surrounding him in a triangular formation.
The person in the lead was none other than Zhou Tong, the master of the Blood Baleful Intent Hall.
Beside him, on his left was Attendant Li of the Duke's Residence, and on his right was a middle-aged man with a dignified and imposing face, dressed in a robe with four-clawed dragons.
Duke Chen, Chen Xiaotian!
Zhou Tong's gaze fell on Yao Ming, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
" Yao Ming?"
His voice was icy as he slowly spoke, "Many years have passed. How have you been? I wonder what brings you here, Elder?"
As a former powerful elder of the Demon God Cult, Yao Ming has been in seclusion for many years, but his reputation remains.
Zhou Tong had dealt with him a few times.
"So it's Palace Master Zhou."
From within the black mist came Yao Ming's hoarse reply, "This is the territory of my Demon God Cult Sect. I don't seem to need to report to Palace Master Zhou for being here, do I?"
What a place the territory of the Demon God Cult is!
Upon hearing this, Attendant Li, who was standing next to Chen Xiaotian, frowned and was about to lash out.
Chen Xiaotian raised his hand slightly to stop him.
He calmly gazed at the black mist, his eyes deep and unreadable.
Zhou Tong remained expressionless and continued, "We were ordered to hunt down a traitor, and we've been tracking him all the way here, but the trail ends here. Elder, have you seen a young man around twenty years old?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Ming's eyes flashed in the black mist; he thought of Su Yu from earlier.
However, after a brief moment of thought, he did not reveal what had just happened.
"Young people?"
Yao Ming's voice carried a hint of amusement, "This place is teeming with demonic beasts and rarely visited by humans. Perhaps the 'traitor' that Palace Master Zhou spoke of has already become that beast's meal."
He paused, then changed the subject. "Since Palace Master Zhou has important matters to attend to, I will not disturb you any longer."
Having said that, he ignored the three of them completely, his black mist churning as he turned to leave.
"Stop!"
Attendant Li finally couldn't hold back any longer and let out a fierce shout, his aura of the Earth Realm Ninth Level crashing down.
However, the black mist only paused slightly before continuing its journey despite the oppressive force, and a cold voice echoed from afar:
" Li Chunfeng, are you provoking my Demon God Cult?"
Attendant Li's face stiffened, and he glanced at Chen Xiaotian beside him.
Chen Xiaotian slowly shook his head, his gaze still fixed on the departing black mist, and said in a low voice, "Let him go."
Their target is Su Yu, and it would be unwise to create further complications at this moment.
Once the Yao Ming's aura had completely vanished on the horizon, Zhou Tong coldly snorted, "That old ghost, still so ungrateful."
"The aura definitely disappeared here."
Attendant Li frowned and said, "The soul lamps of Ghost Hand and Blood Slaughter also went out in this area. Could it be that that little beast Su Yu ran into this old ghost?"
Chen Xiaotian remained silent.
He slowly closed his eyes, and his divine sense Earth Realm Ninth Level Peak, spread out like a tide, carefully exploring every inch of the land below.
A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes, a terrifying glint flashing within them.
He moved swiftly and instantly appeared beside the two deep pits blasted out by " Palm Abyss ".
Zhou Tong and Attendant Li followed closely behind, and when they saw the scene before them, they both gasped in shock.
Two bottomless, circular pits with smooth, mirror-like edges.
At the bottom of the pit were the remains of two enormous demon servants, no longer recognizable as human.
"This is..."
Zhou Tong's pupils contracted sharply. He could sense the lingering demonic Yao Qi of the Earth Realm Ninth Level on the wreckage, as well as... a pure intent of suppression and destruction that made his heart tremble.
"It was Su Yu's doing."
Chen Xiaotian's voice was as cold as ancient ice.
He slowly squatted down and picked up a handful of soil from the edge of the pit.
Three distinct forces remain in the soil.
One type is the cold, eerie Yao Qi of the Yao Ming.
One type is Su Yu's domineering and unparalleled physical body and blood energy.
The last one is the earth's suppressive power that crushes everything.
"They fought a battle here."
Chen Xiaotian stood up and said, word by word.
Zhou Tong and Attendant Li exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Yao Ming has faced off against Su Yu?
The result was... the Yao Ming retreated?!
This conclusion sent chills down their spines.
"Walk!"
Chen Xiaotian didn't say another word. He identified the direction of Su Yu's remaining blood and qi, then his figure transformed into a streak of light and shot out.
His murderous intent had reached its peak!
On the other side.
The Yao Ming, who had fled thousands of miles away, finally stopped behind a hidden waterfall.
He dispelled the black mist, his face even paler than before.
Having just forcefully withstood Li Chunfeng's imposing aura, he had only exacerbated his injuries.
But there was no sign of dejection in his eyes; instead, they shone with a morbid, excited light.
