Chapter 44: The Beast Fire Movement
Chapter 44: The Beast Fire Movement
One day later.
Xiao Ming stood at the top of a wasteland in the dense forest, a mist shining in his eyes as he looked at the scene in front of him.
And that was because the land in front of him did not seem to have been formed normally at all, the trees with broken trunk, the burnt ground and the stakes still smoldering were indications that there had been a fierce battle here.
And this wasteland was the result of this battle.
This was the truth, as in front of Xiao Ming's eyes lay dozens of corpses in a terrible state.
The blood of these corpses had been drained from their bodies, and all of them had become dried corpses.
'It's like this again, this is the fifteenth time I've encountered this situation.' Xiao Ming thought in his heart.
The first time he encountered it, he thought that there was something strange about the small field sucking blood.
The second time he found this kind of dried corpses in other places later, he thought it was some kind of weird thing, and there were more of these things.
But the third time he no longer thought so.
After killing a cultivator that had attacked him, he left the place and hid in the shadows to see what was feeding on the blood.
After waiting for a while, he didn't expect to see the strange thing, but he saw the blood flowing on the ground automatically.
Seeing this scene, he used his soul power to probe without result, but he could only feel the blood flowing deep in the ground.
This scene gave him a fright at the time.
He wondered if he should immediately leave the secret realm before he was in danger.
But after thinking that he had been in the secret realm for several days in the simulator and had not encountered anything dangerous or particularly deadly, he stayed back.
After all, it was too difficult to have a secret realm opened and he was a bit reluctant to leave like that.
He stayed, but every time he saw those dry bodies, a discomfort went through his heart and he always felt a pang in his heart.
The others also seemed to have discovered this problem, but they didn't seem to care in the least.
All they knew was to take the treasures.
Perhaps there was also a hint of fear in their hearts, but they only suppressed it at the opportunity.
With a sigh, an ethereal blue flame emerged from Xiao Ming's palm.
Xiao Ming threw it and set those dry bodies on fire, and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that the flame he had thrown flickered and tilted in a certain direction.
Xiao Ming's face changed slightly as he looked at the direction in which the flame tilted.
There was an extremely high mountain peak, and a wide pillar of white light towards the sky stood there, which was the center of this small mountain range.
At this moment, Xiao Ming's position was actually very close to the center, and he could clearly see that there was something strange about that pillar of light, the whole body of the pillar seemed to be shaking gently, and it looked like it might disappear at any moment.
'Could it be that the pillar of light is also going to disappear, won't another passage appear then? But, the appearance of a passageway also has nothing to do with the alteration of the beast flame, right?'
Xiao Ming rubbed his chin and pondered.
In his perception, only the most powerful flames could make other flames worship, and the most familiar one was Heavenly Flame.
But this space also didn't seem like a place that could produce a Heavenly Flame.
Xiao Ming, who felt a little puzzled, wanted to go to the center to check it out.
But two hours ago, he had once detected battle fluctuations of Dou King or higher powerhouses in the center.
This made him hesitate a little.
At that moment, Xiao Ming suddenly heard the sound of several footsteps.
He hurriedly hid.
A dozen seconds later, four figures passed by.
Those four figures were surprised to see the still burning corpses and, with a quick step, picked up their pace.
"Damn, what bad luck. There are actually a lot of corpses here."
"I don't know what kind of treasure they fought over, but a lot of people have died."
"Stop talking, hurry up and move, we are almost at the center, there must be something good there, when the time comes, we will join forces so we can take the treasure, otherwise we will end up like these corpses."
"Understood, but I warn you, don't think about making a sneak attack...."
...
The four of them quickly walked away, and Xiao Ming, who was hiding in the shadows, clearly heard their conversation.
'Forget it, it's now or never.'
Gritting his teeth, Xiao Ming made up his mind to take a chance.
He was only going to take a look anyway, and it wasn't like he was fighting against a powerhouse Dou King.
It would be nice to have a look, wouldn't it?
The abnormality of the light pillar had definitely been noticed by many people, and given the character of these desperate people of the Black-Corner Region, since they dared to enter, they would definitely dare to run towards the central point.
He didn't think that he would be so unlucky as to be found by a Dou King.
Thinking like this, Xiao Ming convinced himself and chased after the four people in the direction they had gone.
...
Half an hour later.
Xiao Ming had reached the top of the mountain in the center of the range.
The four men he was following were hiding in tree branches not far behind him, and Xiao Ming was likewise hiding in a tree branch.
Naturally, there was a reason for Xiao Ming and the others to do so.
Actually, the top of the highest peak of the mountain had been flattened and the entire top was planted with trees, only the center was left open and a jade area was built just like the one outside.
In the center of the jade area was the pillar of light, and there were several people with wings on their backs.
Tie Wu, Su Mei, Yuan Yi, the three Yao brothers and other powerful people Xiao Ming had seen were present, and several powerful people he had not seen before had also appeared.
And at this moment, Tie Wu and the others were not holding back.
Instead, they were combining their efforts to attack the pillar of light.
It was extraordinary when a Dou King and a Dou Emperor powerhouse attacked.
This was the first time Xiao Ming had seen a powerhouse above a Dou King strike formally.
Each of his attacks could provoke Dou Qi energy ripples of hundreds of meters.
The occasional aftershocks released from these made Xiao Ming's heart tremble. According to his calculations, just these leaked battle aftershocks alone could injure him in an instant if he was inadvertently hit.
If the specific target of these attacks was him, he would not have had time to react and would have died immediately.
Surprisingly, the pillar of light only trembled slightly under the terrifying attacks of these Dou King and Dou Emperor.
It also had to be said that it was quite tough, except that Su Mei and the others seemed to have been attacking for a long time.
The light from the pillar of light had already begun to dim, and Xiao Ming seemed to vaguely see some balls of light fluttering inside the pillar of light.
This was different from the pillar of light outside, but because the distance was too great, Xiao Ming could not see what it was.
However, he guessed that those things were the reason why Tie Wu and the others attacked the pillar of light.
Su Mei and the others also noticed that the pillar of light was getting dimmer and dimmer, and they all showed joyful faces.
Increasing the intensity of the attacks in their hands.
Watching their movements and feeling those energy storms, Xiao Ming felt that this world was too dangerous and that he had acted too recklessly in coming here.
'How about running away?'
Xiao Ming thought inwardly.
It wasn't that he was a coward, thanks to his strong soul power, apart from the Dou King and Dou Emperor above, he had sensed the breath of many people in the surrounding forests.
There was no lack of high-ranking Dou Spirit and Dou Grandmaster among them.
Most of these people were clustered in groups of three or two.
Xiao Ming felt that it was rather disadvantageous for him to stay here alone, and there was the risk of being slapped to death by the power aftershocks of a Dou King.
It seemed a bit impulsive to take such a big risk just to see what could make the beast fire move differently.
Just as Xiao Ming was about to slip away, the pillar of light finally failed to hold up under the attacks of Su Mei and the others.
After a shudder, the pillar of light shattered violently.
When the pillar of light shattered, its interior was exposed, with hundreds of balls of light floating in it, and a black channel emerged.
Those balls of light that lost the shackles of the pillar of light immediately shot out in all directions.
