“Be careful?”
“This damn mist…”
…
Cries of astonishment echoed through the depths of the Deadwood Wetlands.
However, in that very instant, few people noticed a Spirit Flower silently heading towards the north.
*Swoosh…” Trailing a five-color streak of light, the Spirit Flower zoomed through the wetlands. In just a few breaths, it arrived at the periphery of the Deadwood Wetlands.
Just at that moment, as if discovering it, Humans and Mutant Beasts, those who had been waiting at the outskirts, suddenly had their eyes widened.
“The Spirit Flower, Spirit Flower…”
An abrupt cry shattered the deathly silence.
Immediately after, the entire crowd, including the Mutant Beasts, seemed to be seething.
*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Beastly roar shook the sky and the earth.
In the distance, the swarm of Mutant Locusts and even Mutant Bees, these seemingly weak but colonial mutant species, rushed over.
On the other side, the eyes of Humans observing the scene also flickered with greed, and they rushed over in succession.
For a moment, the outskirts of the Deadwood Wetlands had torrents of creatures rushing over.
At this moment, seemingly intentionally, the flying Spirit Flower began orbiting in the air.
Simultaneously, a strange fragrance silently permeated the surroundings.
*Roar, Roar, Roar…* Even more terrifying beastly roars shook the night sky.
In the distance, countless Mutant Beasts, even some that could not be named, had their eyes turned red. The allure of this strange fragrance was irresistibly strong for them.
Not to mention Tier-0 Mutant Beasts, even Northern Darkness Bird’s pair of glowing red eyes revealed a hint of fervor.
*Boom…* With a flap of its wings, creating a fearsome storm that uprooted countless trees, the massive Northern Darkness Bird dived down from the sky, its shadow shading the ground black. Adding to its dread, its menacing and formidable giant black claws reached down from the sky, aiming for the Spirit Flower hovering in the sky.
“A smelly bird like you also thinks that you can catch this Miss…” muttering in a resentful voice, the Spirit Flower stood calmly in the sky.
Because at this moment, she had already sensed a powerful aura no weaker than that of Northern Darkness Bird approaching.
“You dare…” With a thunderous shout, a spanning energy arc shot toward the sky.
“Schrrrr…” The next moment, accompanied by a sound akin to tearing silk, the energy arc left a gaping slash on the mighty Northern Darkness Bird, bringing forth a rain of blood.
The injury inflicted on Northern Darkness Bird’s wing this time was several times, even dozens of times more terrifying than the wound inflicted by Wang Hao’s ultimate move of White Emperor Sword, the Closing Scene.
*Screech…*
A mournful cry echoed through the expanse of the sky, imbuing the entire sky with a subtle hue of melancholy.
Everyone looked toward the sky, and saw that one of the colossal Northern Darkness Bird wings was almost severed. What was even more spine-chilling was that the glowing red eyes of Northern Darkness Bird were firmly fixed on a figure walking out of the vast expanse of mist.
The figure was dressed in white and held a three-foot-long blue sword. However, compared to the figure, the sword was even more awe-inspiring.
The sword’s material could not be discerned, but it was as thin as a cicada’s wing, glimmering with an inexplicable sheen. Faintly, a white glow was radiating from it. While on its hilt, there was an illustrious palace pattern, sparkling like white jade.
It was none other than the White Emperor–Wang Hao, and his sword of inheritance–the White Emperor Sword.
At this moment, looking at the Human whose sword intent was reaching the sky, the Northern Darkness Bird’s gaze turned ice-cold, enough to send chills down anyone.
After a moment, without a moment of hesitation, it flapped its wings, generating a powerful gust of wind that cleared the night sky a bit.
However, just at that moment, an extremely cold voice echoed through the world, “Human, China, I’ll remember this…”
As these words fell, before everyone’s face could show any reaction, the Northern Darkness Bird had already taken off with the wind.
“This stinky bird can’t help but boast…” Complaining, the Spirit Flower hovering in the sky wore an unusually serious expression, gazing at the figure emerging from the white mist.
There was no denying that Wang Hao’s current aura was overwhelmingly powerful, to the point where others did not even dare to look straight at him. From the distance, one could even see a sharp and fearsome Sword Intent soaring into the sky.
The current Wang Hao was even more powerful than the silver-haired General Li Yu Zi Yu had encountered before.
Of course, it was a given as General Li was just a Tier-1 Superhuman. If he was still alive, his strength would surely be immeasurable.
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly resounded in the Spirit Flower’s mind, “Take advantage of the chaos and leave quickly. I’ll try to delay this Human.”
Just as these words fell, vivid and lifelike purple fire snakes shot out from the vast expanse of the mist, one after another.
*Hisss, hisss…* Spewing scorching waves of flames, each snake craftily attacked Wang Hao.
What was even more terrifying was that hidden within this den of purple fire snakes was a white ribbon-like thing.
Upon closer inspection, this white ribbon turned out to be an illusory Silver Centipede, seemingly cast from silver, with each section gleaming and ferocious.
Silver Centipede–Back then, Qing Er had advanced to Tier-1 by devouring the soul of a Tier-2 Silver Centipede. At that time, she had successfully refined the Silver Centipede’s Soul into an ability that could be called a weapon.
And this was one of Qing Er’s rare trump cards.
Judging by the fact that she had revealed this trump card, one could imagine how much importance she attached to the current Wang Hao.
Her current Spiritual Energy, thanks to the Spirit Flower’s support, had climbed to a staggering 700,000, equivalent to a late stage Tier-2 Transcendent.
With such terrifying Spiritual Energy, combined with her fearsome skills, there were few people in the same tier who could compete with her. Yet, Wang Hao, who was just an intermediate stage Tier-2 Superhuman with a mere 400,000 Spiritual Energy, was able to make her pay great attention to.
As such, there was no denying that Wang Hao’s current state was indeed peculiar.
“Flame…Princess…” muttering, Wang Hao’s gaze turned icy-cold, enough to freeze someone.
“Anyone who stands in my way will die.”
The instant these words fell, a white energy arc, dozens of meters long, suddenly shot out. And right at that very moment, the white ribbon hidden within the purple fire snakes swiftly shot out, rushing straight toward the white energy arc.
*Boom…*
Accompanied by a deafening boom, a terrifying shockwave swept through the forest, under the astonished gazes of countless people.
Within this terrifying shockwave, even the formidable Tier-1 Superhumans felt as small as ants. More importantly, white energy arcs successively collided with the white ribbon.
*Bang, Bang, Bang…* For a moment, the periphery of the Deadwood Wetlands was shrouded in an astonishing momentum. Within a radius of a thousand meters, no one dared to approach.
Sharp energy arcs kept beaming through the forest.
Then, there was a ferocious and menacing white ribbon-like centipede.
These two young Humans, locked in a life and death struggle, were displaying the pinnacle of Human strength.
“Monsters…”
“Is this really a battle between Tier-2 Superhumans?”
Witnessing this horrifying battle, countless Humans fell into silence. Even the three Dragon Guards who had rushed over from afar could not help but exchange glances.
