An eighth level Refinement Stage martial cultivation was actually chasing a beast king. Even if a person saw this, they would be unable to stop themselves from wondering if they were seeing things.
Although the Thunder Elemental Lion had injuries on its body, its pure white fur was dyed a deep red. However, its aura was already extremely strong, which showed that its injuries had not harmed its vitality. Because of this, it was hard to understand. How could a beast king be chased to the point where it had to flee in panic by a 8th level Refinement Stage martial cultivation?
The ball of light that the Thunder Elemental Lion split out wrapped Ming Ruo within, causing her to float in the air and be carried around like a kite that was flying. Ming Ruo carried the little Thunder Elemental Lion in her arms. The pampered young miss had never seen anything like this before. She was so scared that she did not even dare open her eyes as she curled up and trembled.
Roar! The aura of the Thunder Elemental Lion's beast king was extremely tyrannical. All kinds of birds and beasts within miles all fled.
Han Chen chased closely behind it, his expression tense, his reddened eyes filled with anxiety and worry. Even though Han Chen had raised his speed to its fastest, the distance between him and the Thunder Elemental Lion was still widening rapidly.
"Ming Ruo, Big Brother will definitely not let anything happen to you." Han Chen clenched his teeth, he hated that he couldn't grow two more legs by growing a pair of wings.
"Heh heh, idiot. So what if you chase after him? "Isn't he just giving his life up?" An ear-piercing, strange laughter passed into his ears. Han Chen's body and mind violently shook, and the rhythm under his feet immediately became chaotic. He staggered, and almost fell over.
"Who's talking?"
"Oh? Brat, you forgot about me so quickly?" The sharp voice was filled with contempt.
Han Chen frowned, he could not help but feel that the voice was familiar. fiendish demon? It was the voice of the fiendish demon Primordial Spirit, which was sealed in the psychedelic forest. Han Chen's pupils contracted as he took out the Demon Sealing Ball from his bosom.
The fist-sized Demon Sealing Ball emitted a strange red light, flickering in and out of darkness. The dazzling red liquid within looked like fresh blood flowing through it.
Heh heh, you stinking brat, you must be surprised! Do you really think that Thunder Elemental Lion is afraid of you? To tell you the truth! It's afraid of me, not you at all. "He's so stupid."
"What did you say?" Han Chen stood in place, his face somewhat pale.
"Heh, that silly kid is pretty cute."
In fact, from the moment the Thunder Elemental Lion babies were lost, the Thunder Elemental Lion had already started going crazy in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. This led to some high-level magical beasts coming to the outskirts of the city, which led to a series of besieging magical beasts.
When the Thunder Elemental Lion found the location of the baby, she had originally wanted to kill Gongsun Lingfeng and the others before taking it back. But at that time, Han Chen, Qiao Feiyan's group of people, would once again gather with them.
As a beast king Thunder Elemental Lion, it relied on its keen perception. It had sensed the aura of a fiendish demon on Han Chen's body. This wayrannical aura that was many times more powerful than that of a beast king. The Thunder Elemental Lion felt fear in its heart, and did not dare to rashly attack.
For the next few days, it would be there every half day or every day. Just kill a high levelled beast and throw their bodies on the road that Han Chen and the others had to take. The reason was to give everyone a warning, immediately letting the baby go, and then letting the Thunder Elemental Lion not pursue the matter.
However, everyone treated the little beast as the cub of the Snow Mastiff, and no one even thought about the Thunder Elemental Lion. Until when Ke Yinye and Gongsun Lingfeng were about to duel due to a conflict, the Thunder Elemental Lion hiding in the darkness was worried that it would harm the baby, but in the end, it still couldn't help but reveal its real body.
As for why the Thunder Elemental Lion wanted to catch Ming Ruo, it was completely because Ming Ruo had been holding onto the infant without letting go. Furthermore, the Thunder Elemental Lion were afraid of the fiendish demon, which was why they were captured along with the beast.
"Hehe, have you gone stupid! "Stupid brat." The fiendish demon's laughter was filled with schadenfreude.
Han Chen was truly a little dazed. At that moment, he hated Gongsun Lingfeng and his group to the core, and now their danger had been resolved. In the end, Ming Ruo fell into a dangerous situation. In his anger, he blamed himself for his incompetence.
"Brat, I advise you not to chase them. That little girl is definitely not going to be able to be saved. "
"No." Han Chen's figure trembled violently, and chased after him.
"Aiyo, brat, why are you doing this? Wouldn't it bity if he lost his life for nothing? "Heh heh." The Demon Sealing Ball shined with a strange demonic light, as if it were the eye of a vicious beast.
"Our human emotions, you cold-blooded demon, will not understand."
"Oh? Is that so? Hehe, looks like you really want to save her. " The fiendish demon's voice paused for a second, then laughed strangely, and continued, "Hehe, I can help you deal with that Thunder Elemental Lion, do you believe me?"
What? Han Chen's feet paused, and his eyes were filled with disbelief as he stared at the Demon Sealing Ball in his hand. You can help me? "
"That's right, although I have escaped from my original body, dealing with a Thunder Elemental Lion is still not a big problem. But! "Hehe, you have to let me out."
"This won't do. If I let you out, you'll surely bring disaster to this world again." Han Chen flatly refused.
"Hey, it seems you're not stupid!" Whatever you decide is up to you. Let me out and I'll help you save that little girl. And I promise I won't hurair on your head. Is this a deal? " The fiendish demon began to tempt Han Chen, controlling his thoughts.
"I won't be tricked by you."
"Whatever you say. I'm looking forward to seeing the wonderful expression on that little girl's corpse when you see her later. Hahahaha."
"Shut up." Han Chen was so angry that his entire body was trembling, his fists tightly holding the Demon Sealing Ball. Gritting his teeth, he did not dare delay any further and rushed in the direction in which the Thunder Elemental Lion had escaped.
In the Magic Beast Mountain Range, the roars of all sorts of unknown beasts could be heard continuously.
In another place, Qiao Feiyan, Monte, Ke Yinye and the rest were looking for traces of Han Chen. Because the group was following him slowly, they had lost the target of their search.
The atmosphere between the crowd seemed somewhat stiff. Gongsun Lingfeng and Ke Yinye's faces were calm, the two of them did not like each other. Originally, Gongsun Lingfeng was not in favor of looking for Han Chen, but Qiao Feiyan and the rest were determined to not abandon him. Since he was forced to do so, he had no choice but to follow.
"If we keep going forward, we'll reach the center of the mountain range. There might be higher level magical beasts. Everyone, be careful." The Monte began to remind him.
Everyone nodded their heads, indicating that they understood. Gongsun Lingfeng squinted his eyes as he sneered in his heart, "Hmph, even if I find them, it would only be two corpses, it would be a waste of time."
In the dark cave.
The air around him seemed somewhat moist, but the interior of the cave was quite spacious. Ming Ruo shrank into a corner, his watery eyes filled with fear as he looked at the Thunder Elemental Lion that was not far away.
At this time, the Thunder Elemental Lion was lying on the ground, using its tongue to clean the wounds on its body. On the other hand, the Thunder Elemental Lion's cub quietly lied down on the dry grass and closed its eyes, dozing off.
"Big brother." Ming Ruo called out to Han Chen in a soft voice. He was even more afraid now, would he
not be able to see him again in the future? Thinking of this, the thirst in Ming Ruo's heart took the upper hand. He quietly stood up from the ground and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Even though she made sure she didn't make any sound, she couldn't escape the eyes of the Thunder Elemental Lion.
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion released a low roar and suddenly jumped up from the ground, staring straight at Ming Ruo fiercely with its eyes. Ming Ruo unconsciously shrank back, her delicate body trembling. "Don't come over, don't come over."
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion would never pity a weak human. It slowly approached Ming Ruo, easily taking her life.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Big brother, where are you? I'm so scared. " Ming Ruo was so frightened that tears continued to flow out of her eyes.
"Ming Ruo, don't be afraid, I'm here."
An anxious and worried voice suddenly sounded. Ming Ruo was ecstatic, she raised her head and looked around. Han Chen who was drenched in sweat and gasping for breath had rushed into the cave.
"Big brother." Ming Ruo looked as if she had seen her savior as tears started to fall from her eyes.
Seeing Han Chen's sudden appearance, the Thunder Elemental Lion's eyes revealed a human-like fear. To be more precise, it was fear towards the fiendish demon.
"I just want to take her away. I won't hurt your cub." Han Chen raised his right hand and tried to communicate with the Thunder Elemental Lion.
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion released a low growl from its throat, staring straight at Han Chen, its fur standing up, as though it was not willing to believe the other party.
"Heh heh, stupid boy, magical beasts don't believe in humans. In the eyes of magical beasts, you humans are a group of treacherous and cunning creatures. Of course, the truth is the same, hehe. "
Previously, it was worried that Ming Ruo would be killed by the Thunder Elemental Lion. If she wasn't dead, Han Chen would definitely think of a way to save her. In the end, he would inevitably beg her.
Han Chen did not pay attention to the sinister smile on the fiendish demon's face. Instead, he tried his best to look kind and honest, "Thunder Elemental Lion, I know what you're hearing makes me speak. I just want to take my sister and not hurt you and your cub. "Can you trust me?"
Han Chen tried to slowly move forward, but the closer he got to the other party, the wilder the Thunder Elemental Lion became. Ming Ruo didn't even dare to move, and cried out, "Big Brother, don't worry about me, hurry up and leave! Ming Ruo will not blame you. "
"No, don't worry, don't be afraid. Ming Ruo, Big Brother will definitely save you. " At that moment, Han Chen really wanted to exchange for Ming Ruo with him. Back then, he had personally said that he would not injure her in the slightest. To be loyal and righteous, this was Han Chen.
However, what he did not know was that, from the very beginning, the primordial spirit of the fiendish demon within the Demon Sealing Ball had been secretly stimulating the emotions of the Thunder Elemental Lion. Han Chen really thought that he wasn't sincere enough.
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion was finally unable to suppress the restlessness in its heart, and the tyrannical aura of a beast king instantly burst forth.
Han Chen was shocked, for Ming Ruo, he did not care anymore, "fiendish demon, I promise you, as long as you can save my sister."
"Hehe, deal."
Chapter 139 - Mysterious Small Monsters
"Hehe, deal."
Looking at the furious Beast King Thunder Elemental Lion, in order to protect Ming Ruo. Han Chen finally chose to compromise with the fiendish demon and channeled his martial spirit energy into the Demon Sealing Ball.
Buzz! Buzz! In the next moment, a violent and restless infernal energy filled the air. A bloody mist drifted out. The entire cave was filled with an endless, fiendish aura.
"Tsk tsk, I've finally come out." Accompanied by a sharp and shrill voice, a humanoid figure, completely blood-red, witair of vertical pupils appeared in front of Han Chen.
Ming Ruo's beautiful face paled. When had she ever seen such a disgusting and terrifying monster like this before? Moreover, she seemed to be on the verge of fainting due to the influence of the fiendish aura.
When the fiendish demon Primordial Spirit was released, the Thunder Elemental Lion became even more nervous, and all of the hairs on its body stood on end. It was a shock that could only be felt in the face of great danger.
"Hehe, what a sumptuous meal." The fiendish demon let out a strange laugh, following that, surging red blood light surged towards the Thunder Elemental Lion. It instantly enveloped him likuge red net.
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion struggled in its four limbs and resisted with all its might. Following that, the wounds on his body were torn apart, and fresh blood flowed out once more.
"Hehe, don't struggle. You will die comfortably."
The fiendish demon laughed crazily wantonly, the blood red light invading the Thunder Elemental Lion's body. Following that, strands of white light separated from the Thunder Elemental Lion's body and gathered in the air. This was the source energy of a magical beast, which could only be extracted from its blood essence and crystal core.
"Wahaha, this is too great." Looking at the source energy that was gathering, the fiendish demon was so excited that it screamed.
Han Chen was shocked, his intuition told him that something was wrong. Even though he was as strong as a beast king, he actually did not have any leeway to fight back against the fiendish demon. This was only its primordial spirit, and it had no idea how powerful it would become after merging with its true body. Thinking back to when psychedelic forest had captured him, then looking back at what had happened before them, he couldn't help but feel that it was a little unrealistic.
In fact, it was back in the psychedelic forest. Just as the fiendish demon's primordial spirit escaped from the seal, it was already severely injured. In addition, it had used up a lot of energy to control several hundred more magical beasts to attack Feng Village. In that extremely weak state, it was only then that it was sealed by Han Chen at the last moment.
"Ming Ruo, how is it? You're not hurt, right? " Taking advantage of this gap, Han Chen hurried over to the other party's side to check on the situation.
Ming Ruo held Han Chen's neck tightly and cried unrestrainedly, "Big Brother, you're finally here. I'm scared to death."
Han Chen also hugged her, and lightly patted Ming Ruo's back, "Alright, good girl, you're fine now right?"
"En!" Ming Ruo wiped her tears and nodded strongly.
"Hehe, everything is fine now. All of you will be in trouble soon."
What? Han Chen was shocked, he immediately pushed Ming Ruo away, and stared straight at the fiendish demon's strange face, "What do you mean? Didn't you promise not to hurt us? "
"Heh heh, stupid brat, you really are easy to fool. You have sealed me for so long that I cannot merge with myself. Do you think I'll let you off? "
"You?" Han Chen's expression changed, as he instantly understood the other party's words.
"Hehe, but I will leave you two with an intact corpse." The fiendish demon laughed unrestrainedly, as if she had everything under her control.
Han Chen steeled his heart, gritted his teeth, and said, "Bastard, I won't let you succeed."
After he finished speaking, Han Chen quickly took out the Demon Sealing Ball and rushed towards his opponent. The fiendish demon gave a disdainful laugh as its vertical pupils flashed with coldness. Two red beams of light shot out, straight towards Han Chen's chest.
Bang! Even beast king Thunder Elemental Lion could not withstand the fiendish demon's attack, let alone Han Chen who was only at the Refinement Realm. Qin Lie's blood surged upwards and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was then blasted away and slammed into the wall of the cave.
"Big brother." Ming Ruo was so frightened that her beautiful face paled, and she immediately ran over to check. " Brother, how are you? "
Anger, unwillingness, self-blame … All sorts of negative emotions swarmed his mind. In front of such a strong opponent, he did not have the slightest room to retaliate. Han Chen's thirst for power had reached a height that could only be found once before.
"Hehe, don't be in sucurry!" "After I finish enjoying this delicious meal, I'll take care of all of you."
The fiendish demon's eyes were shining as it stared at the ball of Thunder Elemental Lion's source energy in mid air. At this moment, the Thunder Elemental Lion's aura was extremely weak, and even its life force was rapidly decreasing. Losing his source energy meant losing his life.
Roar! The Thunder Elemental Lion let oueavy wail, then powerlessly collapsed onto the ground, unable to move. The number of light dots that separated from its body gradually decreased, but the formidable beast king was in such a miserable state.
"Haha, cool!" I'm going to enjoy my meal, haha. " The fiendish demon's voice was exceptionally ear-piercing as the red light wrapped around the ball of source energy. Han Chen also knew that there was no longer any hope for him to make a comeback.
But at that moment, something unexpected happened. In Han Chen's arms, a black scroll suddenly flew out, the scroll automatically opened, revealing a pair of strange pupils, those eyes revealing ripples.
"This is?" Han Chen was shocked, wasn't this the scroll that the Hidden Court City obtained from Wen Ya? From within the scroll, a pair of wavy pupils flew out with lightning speed and rushed into the Thunder Elemental Lion's source energy.
The fiendish demon that was caught off guard was extremely shocked, and had not had the chance to react. That ball of white source energy was devoured cleanly by the ripple pupils like a whale sucking in water, not even ashes remained.
