Taking the long path out, Xiang Shaoyun conveniently picked the golden flood snake flower as he left, along with several other old medicines. When he finally returned to where Little White was, he found that Little White's beast aura was already converging. Furthermore, Little White had a ferociousness that terrified people. Even Xiang Shaoyun found it hard to withstand.
”Little White, if you're able to suppress the power of the demonic core, please do so! The king kong giant ape is coming! If it senses our presence, we'll have to leave at once,” Xiang Shaoyun urgently pleaded Little White.
Little White understood what Xiang Shaoyun was saying. Almost at once, he retracted all his beast aura and shrunk in size, returning to his cute form.
”Let's go!” Xiang Shaoyun waited for Little White to leap onto his shoulder before escaping without a second thought. As he swiftly made his escape, he picked all the blood mushrooms on the way, not leaving a single one in the cave. In the past, he would not have cared one bit for these low-grade goods. Now, however, every single one of them was a great harvest. He had learned how to treasure every single item he came across. After plucking all the mushrooms, he and Little White exited the cave from where they had entered.
After exiting the cave, they started descending the mountain. However, Xiang Shaoyun had not run far when he felt an immense pressure at his back.
”Roar! Roar!”
It was the roar of the king kong giant ape! It had actually caught up to him by circling the whole way around!
”This can't be! It's actually caught up to us already?!” Xiang Shaoyun cried out in despair.
A Great Demon beast was comparable to a human Transformation Realm expert, an existence Xiang Shaoyun could not hope to contend with. That giant ape had probably sent even all the members of the Mad Lion Hunting Group running, much less him, who had just entered the Astral Realm!
The king kong giant ape was surprisingly agile, closing the gap between the two of them with just a few leaps. Xiang Shaoyun's heart was full of unwillingness. In that very moment, he thought to himself, I'm done for now! How can this young master die in the very prime of youth?
Just as Xiang Shaoyun was readying himself to meet his maker, several people leaped out of the bushes nearby and came rus.h.i.+ng over to the king kong giant ape.
”King kong giant ape, go to h.e.l.l!” The person leading the charge was none other than the leader of the group, Mad Lion himself.
It seemed that a victor had yet to be decided between the king kong giant ape and the Mad Lion Hunting Group, with neither side gaining a noticeable advantage. Aside from Mad Lion himself, several other vice-captains of the Mad Lion Hunting Group were also joining hands to take down the king kong giant ape.
To Transformation Realm experts such as them, the Earth Star Spring would not aid them in increasing their combat power. However, it did have the ability to cleanse their systems, which was why it was so highly sought after.
Most importantly, if they managed to get ahold of the Earth Star Spring, it would provide them a huge boost in training their successors. Aside from the Earth Star Spring, it was rumoured that a top-tier spirit medicine was growing in the king kong giant ape's territory, a piece of news that left all of them reeling.
Since that was the case, they were all prepared to fight the king kong giant ape to the very end. Xiang Shaoyun took the opportunity to escape as fast as he possibly could.
”Stop that brat! He must've gotten ahold of the spirit medicine! Otherwise, why would the king kong giant ape chase him so furiously?” Mad Lion's roar alerted his subordinates of Xiang Shaoyun.
”d.a.m.ned old man!” Xiang Shaoyun cursed to himself.
