209. Dark Forest 1.


Three kilometers later, Qing Ruo and his entourage began to feel exhausted, as the pressure that was oppressing them from moving on top of the trees grew stronger.


" Young master, if we continue moving on top of these trees, we will be completely exhausted," Long Chen said, changing his call to Qing Ruo.


" Elder Gong, we'd better move from below alone," Qing Ruo said as she moved down.


" Okay" said Yanshi Gong.


Ten kilometers later, they began to sense the presence of traces of the aura of ferocious beasts in that place.


" We're starting to enter the northern outermost frontier. The pressure in the forest will be stronger, it happens because of the difference in the flow of space and time in the divine land area with the ancient region" said Yanshi Gong.


" Long Chen, has every outer region border always been like this?" qing Ruo asked via telepathy.


" Not all places are like this. For example in the eastern region, we will enter a vast vacuum, then arrive at the outer region of the Divine land called the ancient region," Long Chen explained.


" So the outermost region of the divine land is called the ancient region?"


" Right," Long Chen replied.


" Young master, we are about to enter a very dangerous place. So be prepared." with a serious face.


" Alright," Qing Ruo replied, then moved into the forest.


" Swhus.. swhus." their figures darted, entering the forest quickly.


" This area is really strange, because the traces of the aura of a savage beast are so obvious, different in the outer area before," Qing Ruo said.


" Young master, it's because the territory we passed before is a forbidden area for them."


" Does that mean they can't leave this forest?"


" right. If they can do it, maybe Da Men city has long since vanished" Yanshi Gong replied.


At the moment when they continued to move, suddenly Yanshi Gong stopped their movements.


" Young master, eastward" he said slowly in a standby manner.


" It looks like that figure is indeed targeting us," Qing Ruo said.


" Semi immortal level eight," Long Chen said with a solemn face.


" It's only two kilo meters away, but there are already extremely powerful creatures, even deliberately targeting us," Qing Ruo said as he moved to avoid the alien figure.


From a distance of five hundred meters, they began to see flashes of blackish light, moving zig-zags approaching them to extremes.


" Young master, keep moving!" yanshi Gong said seriously.


" Older, block his movement with a silver shield, Long Chen and I will attack him from two opposing sides," Qing Ruo said as she moved spread out, leaving Yanshi Gong agape.


Yangshi Gong who had previously thought Qing Ruo would avoid the existence of the figure who taught them that, so wavered.


" Truly brave." His mind, while being alert.


On the other side.


Qing Ruo and Long Chen who had been in their positions prepared to attack immediately.


" Swhus..." The figure of a giant black lizard with pitch-black eyes appeared, lunging towards Yanshi Gong to the extreme.


" Dhuar's...." A powerful explosion shook the place, as the gigantic figure struck the silver shield made by Yanshi Gong.


" Swhus..." Yanshi Gong was thrown with extremes of up to hundreds of meters, smashing into a giant tree, while the black lizard was blown away by dozens of meters.


" Swhus...." Qing Ruo and Long Chen who had been in his position, moved while unleashing their peak attacks, attacking the vital point of the ferocious beast.


" Dhuar...." A fierce explosion resounded as two of Qing Ruo's seven Xue Luo swords struck the creature's eyes.


" Keep Attack!" qing Ruo said to Long Chen who continued to attack the chest of the savage beast.


" Older, Bracket him," Qing Ruo said as he created a giant wave of lightning.


" OK," Yanshi Gong replied immediately approaching the giant black lizard that was raging in pain.


" Trarch......" The ground moved, then gave rise to a giant silver cage and began to reduce the ferocious beast.


" Slash.." a wave of lightning moved, entered the silver cage and struck the body of the giant lizard.


" Roargh...." Shouts of pain rang out, changing with the sound of explosions constantly moving.


" Dhuar.." the silver dome was destroyed, throwing the figures of Yanshi Gong and Long Chen.


" Dhaur.dhuar.." The lightning spear shot smashed the lizard's legs, which made it even more furious."


" Older, brackets again!" said Qing Ruo.


" Well," replied Yanshi Gong who looked so in pain after enduring the backlash from the rampage of the giant lizard, scattering while making a hand seal.


" Swhus...." The silver dome reappeared, locking up the raging black lizard.


" Swhus ..." Long Chen appeared behind Yanshi Gong, channeling his strength to guard the silver shield dome.


" The people from the Qing clan are really reckless. Although this method was effective, but this strategy could not be used if this ferocious beast was more than one," Inner, looked at Qing Ruo who continued to make hand seals before him.


In a short time, the giant black lizard that was in the cage of the silver dome finally managed to be knocked down. Along with the disappearance of the sound of lightning explosion from inside the dome.


" Older," Qing Ruo said asking Yangshi Gong to open the silver dome.


" Swhuss..." The Silver Dome was opened, displaying the figure of a giant black lizard that had been sprawled.


" Long Chen," Qing Ruo said, as she drew Xue Luo's sword that was still stuck in the lizard's eyes and body.


" Good ruler," said Long Chen who immediately moved to retrieve the soul pearl of the ferocious beast.


After Long Chen took the giant black lizard soul pearl, Yanshi Gong, then brought them moving away from the place.


" It's too easy" Long Chen said.


" It was because the black lizard only relied on speed and physical attacks. It would be different if the lizard had a technical attack," Qing Ruo said.


" Young master, that giant black lizard is just the beginning. Let's hope we don't meet the immortal dark animal" Yanshi Gong said seriously, as he continued to move.


" Hopefully," said Qing Ruo who kept moving while drawing back her strength.

Somewhere else.


Three hundred meters away from where Qing Ruo and his entourage defeated the giant black lizard. Inside the illusion shield, the five elders cheered with the cultivation of the third and fifth level semi immortal swordsmen who were hunting in that place, standing with shuddering bodies.


" Sister, is it safe?"


" It seems so, let's check out the rest of the battle beforehand. Hopefully they don't destroy the giant lizard's body." 


" Good." Then move to check the remnants of the battle that occurred before.


" Sister look.  They've really killed this black lizard."


" A really strong group." While examining the body of the beast.


" Sister, how is this. The organs in this beast have been destroyed. Very dear to you." With a sad face.


" There is no other choice. We'll keep hunting, until we get the gall of this beast."


" But brother, what if that comes over one and is already at the eighth level again?"


The five figures were silent.


" I have an idea, but I'm not sure" said one of the elders with a serious face.


" Sister, what is it?"


" What if I join the previous group?"


" But brother, what if they find out that we've tricked them into baiting the giant black lizard."


" We have no choice."


" But brother, I'm not sure they'll accept us."


" We haven't tried, how can we know. Relax, I'll explain this."


" If so, fine." Then move away from that place.


" Swhuss...." The five figures then moved following Qing Ruo and his entourage.
