Chapter 453 (2/2)
Once again, they fought their way out of this territory. If it wasn't for the fact that each of them was at least a King of Kings, they wouldn't have been able to fight continuously for such a long time. In fact, they might have already died by now.
These devils that lived together in groups were extremely troublesome to deal with. Fortunately, each of them was tough and unyielding. An ordinary King would have given up by now, not willing to die just for a woman.
As for these geniuses, they had an entirely different mindset. Each of them was a powerful combatant in his own right, and n.o.body wanted to fall behind the others. Thus, they viewed this trip as a good opportunity to temper themselves and increase their combat prowess. In fact, this might even be a chance for them to break through into the Dragon Ascension Realm.
Xiang Shaoyun had been silently observing everyone. He concluded that Yu Caidie was the strongest in the group and that her strength was also the hardest for him to see through. Second to her in strength was Tang Longfei. There was also a swordsman called Jian Chen, who was also as outstanding as Tang Longfei.
The former had reached the very peak of King Realm, and his draconic aura was about 80 percent formed. The day his draconic aura reached completion would also be the day he entered the Emperor Realm. He was also extremely knowledgeable in terms of killing devilish beasts, as if he knew everything here very well.
As for the latter, he was an expert in the way of the sword. Each time he drew his sword, his sword was dyed with blood. Both Xiang Shaoyun and Huo Xudong suspected that he was the disciple of Li Juetian, the head of the Seven Villains. The strongest after them were the likes of Long Yunfei, Di Tong, Jin Shui, and Ruo Suifeng.
Xiang Shaoyun knew very well that apart from being able to deal with the weakest of that group of individuals, the most he could do when facing the others was to preserve his life. It was almost impossible for him to actually kill any of them. To be a threat to them, he would have to be at least a fifth-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator.
Time pa.s.sed, and as the group continued killing devilish beasts day in and day out, everyone now had a thick murderous intent about them. This was a result of all the slaughter they had gone through.
Amid the unending battles, Xiang Shaoyun had also gotten himself injured a few times, but he was always able to quickly recover. Everyone found it inconceivable. They no longer dared to look down on him as he was able to kill the devils as fast as they could.
The reason his offense was so effective was naturally all thanks to his gift of instincts. After all, he could clearly sense the devils' energy flow and easily kill them through their openings before they could even attack.
Through the continuous slaughter, Xiang Shaoyun's grasp on move prediction had also improved considerably. During this period, his cultivation level had also grown from early fourth-stage to mid fourth-stage. Apart from his freakish physique, him being able to absorb the devilish energy in the air had also contributed greatly to his rapid growth. n.o.body else knew about that.
”Alright, we will be able to reach the devil wind beast territory in a few days. Everyone, hang in there,” said Yu Caidie. As they neared their destination, her eyes were starting to fill with excitement.
Today, she was leading the way as usual, with everyone following behind her.
Suddenly, Xiang Shaoyun cried out, ”Caidie, we can't go that way. We need to take a detour.”
Everyone looked at him in confusion. Yu Caidie asked, ”Why?”
From the map, they were taking the correct route. Moreover, there wouldn't be powerful devils in their way.
”Listen to me, we need to leave now. Otherwise, it will be too late,” Xiang Shaoyun said solemnly. With his Nether Soul Domain, he had much sharper senses than the others. He had sensed some devils beyond the Devil King realm not far ahead of them.
