"Since this place is so big, and you were so far away from me back then, that guy must have been hard to find, right?"
That guy was naturally referring to the head guard.
According to Chen Qing, when he came to find him, he used a secret technique called Time Scale. Then, with time and space frozen, he rushed for half a year to find him and brought him back to the starting point.
The distance is more than two Jiangnan apart. With such a vast distance, it would be like finding a needle in a haystack for the captain of the guards to find him.
Chen Qing's second method was to rely on the head guard, because he guessed that the head guard's identity was not simple and that he could freely travel between the worlds, which was why he had the courage to pull himself to the Demonic Void Realm.
"He can find it," Chen Qing whispered. "According to the initial design of the fourth version, the four golems were the ones who opened up this situation at the beginning. The Bai Hua you saw earlier was one of them; it came to steal the luck. The thing that made a pact with you was also one of them; it came to steal faith. And I suspect that guy is the same one behind it."
"Do you know who it is?" Ziyue frowned.
" Blood Ancestor, you command a golem of the strongest warrior in the Ten Directions World; it has come to steal our life force!"
Blood Ancestor.
Ziyue looked at Chen Qing and felt that this time Chen Qing's information seemed much clearer.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm fairly confident." Chen Qing nodded and said, "I noticed it during our exchange just now. Its exaggerated burst of energy and speed mean that its direct combat strength is in no way inferior to the Emperor's. Moreover, in this world, with the elements in chaos, gravity is also chaotic. Bursting energy is extremely energy-consuming, but I feel that it doesn't seem to care about consuming that energy, so I need to confirm it."
"Just to confirm?"
"Do you know about Divine Movement?" Chen Qing suddenly asked.
"Of course I know that," Ziyue nodded. It's a movement technique invented by human warriors that compresses the body's qi and blood to the extreme for an explosive sprint. It's usually used to catch up with opponents. This ability consumes a lot of qi and blood, but the speed increase is extremely exaggerated. If used for traveling, it can cross a Liuzhou City in one or two breaths.
This speed is generally unsustainable for long periods because it is extremely energy-consuming. Otherwise, a skilled traveler could probably traverse the entire world from north to south in half an hour. Moreover, once used, it is difficult to maintain agility and one becomes quite rigid. Therefore, this thing is not very useful except for traveling short distances in a hurry.
"That guy should be able to pinpoint your location, but the distance is too great. If he can get here within 15 minutes, it will prove my guess."
"Half a quarter of an hour?" Ziyue swallowed hard. "Is that even possible?"
She had studied the Divine Movement Technique; the longer a martial artist used it, the greater the energy expenditure, and it increased exponentially. Half a quarter of an hour? Even King Level couldn't sustain that long, right?
"Possibly," Chen Qing nodded. " The Blood Ancestor's true form absorbed the life essence of countless worlds, making his blood and qi incredibly powerful. He could form a deformed star of flesh and blood on his own, making him an extremely terrifying existence. If he is one of the puppets, the amount of blood and qi he can store is absolutely beyond your imagination."
"I even suspect that the diverse levels of martial arts and bloodline techniques in this world are probably related to his instigation."
Just then, Ziyue suddenly sensed an ominous sign of danger approaching, and before she could react, she felt a powerful force coming towards her.
That force was like an ordinary person being locked onto by a falling star from outer space, unable to escape no matter how hard they tried.
And the visual effect is actually the same.
I saw it from a great distance—a beam of light, like the setting sun. I could see it clearly, but I knew I couldn't escape its range no matter how hard I ran.
With a deafening roar, immense power unleashed a terrifying storm, causing the chaotic elements to rage even more rampant, and the surrounding space to descend into chaos, forming a spatial torrent.
The sheer magnitude of this power even surpasses the level reached when the Xiao Household emperor unlocked the King Level.
Whether it's Chen Qing or Ziyue, even if they are touched directly, they will be reduced to ashes.
But in fact, there is none.
The figure that caused all this stopped in its tracks, its armor glowing red-hot like a branding iron. It was none other than the head guard that Chen Qing had predicted would arrive soon.
The head guard took a deep breath, his exhalation like a torrent of hot air. He stared coldly into the distance, his heart filled with doubt.
That guy seemed to have anticipated my arrival and used a spatial spell to escape beforehand. How did he manage to predict my background?
"Senior is indeed amazing!" Chen Qing exclaimed, holding Ziyue in the distance. "Your armor must have an extraordinary origin. It can withstand power beyond the King Level King Level without being unsealed. Hmm... Blood Demon Armor?"
"You also know about the Blood Demon Armor?" The head guard narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Chen Qing.
The Blood Demon Armor was made by the Blood Ancestor using the bones of top geniuses from different worlds. Only the cartilage from the spinal cord was used, and it was condensed with extremely high blood essence. Not only can it gently store blood essence, but it also has extremely high resistance. The Ancient Demon Clan all thought that they wore the armor to avoid revealing their identities. No one knew that the reason they did not take off the armor was because it allowed them to avoid all assassination attempts.
He thought no one in the world would recognize this armor, this guy.
"The reason I've survived until now is simply because I know a bit more," Chen Qing said with a smile.
"Do you even realize how much noise I made when I came over? Do you know that if you use forbidden magic now, that thing will definitely lock onto your location?"
"I roughly know," Chen Qing said with a smile. "I even know that it should be nearby. The reason it hasn't appeared is because if it did, you would kill it."
"Are you kidding me?" the captain of the guard laughed. "I can kill a monster like that?"
"To enter this world, one needs to be reduced in dimension. Since it's a reduction in dimension, it means being on the same level. No matter how terrifying a monster you were before, what can't you kill at the same level?" Chen Qing sneered, "Sir, haven't you done just that kind of thing?"
"What do you mean?" the head guard said coldly.
"I wasn't sure before, I thought you were just one of the puppets, but now I'm certain. The Blood Demon Armor is something that will never be bestowed upon any puppet. You defeated the Blood Ancestor, right?"
The head guard was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter.
The laughter was deep and resonant, and the vigorous energy caused the surrounding chaotic elements to churn.
He had been hiding for many years, and so many Ancient Demon elders hadn't discovered him, yet a junior had seen through him in a short time. This guy was indeed interesting.
"So, the reason you wanted to Bai Hua before wasn't some noble cause; you just wanted to kill Bai Hua, right?"
"Hehehe," the head guard sneered, "I'm getting more and more curious about you. If I didn't know that Pu Yunchuan could never have come to this world, I would really think you were him. But if you're not him, then who are you?"
The two exchanged sharp and pointed remarks, each revealing more significant information than the last, leaving Ziyue wide-eyed and speechless for a long time.
What stunned her most was the familiar voice that had just echoed in her mind.
"Dean, don't move! The Lord and I are coming to rescue you right away."
