Asura Continent

Sun Qinglong and the others flew south in the clear sky. In the blink of an eye, they were more than 100 kilometers away.

Sun Qingbo looked at the soul locking jade in his hand and said, "There are 15 points of light on the soul locking jade, two of them are the largest, one is thousands of kilometers away, and the other is only 100 kilometers away. Why go to that place first?" Moreover, who can be sure that the one with the densest blood essence and similar volume is Lu Yang? What if it's a demon beast? "

"Demonic beast?" Sun Qinglong shook his head and said, "What you said is not impossible, but it is unlikely." Don't tell me that Lu Yang found a demon beast that's about the same size as him and also threw more than half of his blood essence onto that person's body. Do you think that's possible? "

Sun Qingming coldly snorted and nodded, "Brother Long is right. Lu Yang isn't an idiot, how could he do such a thing? He will at most live for a thousand years. He sacrificed five hundred years of his blood essence, so even if he manages to escape, you can forget about breaking through to the Core Formation stage. It's not like you don't know how long it will take for us to break through. "

Sun Qingbo only felt that it was impossible for someone as intelligent as Lu Yang to make such a low-level mistake. Seeing that everyone was in disbelief, he couldn't be bothered to continue speaking. In any case, they would be heading to their destination soon. If they didn't find Lu Yang, they would have to listen to him if they had anything else to say.

If he could obtain the commanding authority and kill Lu Yang, it would also be a great merit.

Thinking of this, Sun Qingbo glanced at the crowd and snorted in his heart, "What a bunch of idiots. There's no reason for me to say such things to you."

A thousand kilometers would only take a few breaths of time for these Core Formation cultivators.

Moments later, everyone arrived at the top of a lush forest. With a flick of their consciousness, they discovered the location of the Soul-Sealing Jade. With a flash, they flew into the forest, immediately heading towards a dense patch of vines in front of them. The vine in front of him was simply too big. It was a circumference of ten li, and they had never seen it before. This made them feel out of place.

"Strange, why would a vine appear here?" Sun Qingbo frowned. He had the nagging feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.

Sun Qingming obviously stood up against him. He snorted and said, "This vine is not your family's grass. Does it have anything to do with you?"

"What Wavelet said makes sense. It's indeed strange that a vine appeared here, and it's a very hard Vajra Vine at that." Sun Qinglong said in a deep voice, "The Vajra Vine only grows in the southwest, and the Chen family resides in a large area. However, this place is close to the South Sea. The temperature is very hot and the ground is also very dry. It is not suitable for vines to grow here.

Sun Qingming didn't think so. He continued to retort, "What's so strange about that? There's nothing out of the ordinary in this boundless universe. Even a cultivator with supreme spiritual roots like Lu Yang is able to use ice attribute abilities. It is possible that that senior came here and deliberately planted the Vajra Vine, and that is not impossible. "

"That's right!" This possibility is not non-existent. " Sun Qinglong nodded, "Cut these vines, get ready to kill Lu Yang..."

Sun Qingbo slapped the bag of holding on his waist and took out an immortal sword. As he controlled the celestial sword to cut down the vine, he mocked, "There are many wonders in this world. You are absolutely right. "If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator could heavily injure a Core Formation stage cultivator …"

Just as he was about to get angry, he laughed and said: "That's because someone didn't meet Lu Yang, otherwise, they would have to die here. If you're afraid of dying, you can avoid coming to the front. We'll fight with Lu Yang first." Saying so, he threw a provocative look at Sun Qingbo.

That was what Sun Qingbo wanted to say. He immediately nodded and said, "I'm afraid of death. You have a high cultivation base. Just walk in front." After which, he intentionally walked to the back.

Everyone was chopping at the vine, but no one noticed. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the vine had been chopped off.

At this time, everyone spread out their divine sense to sense the situation inside the vine, but they found that there was a very strange energy deep inside it. This energy restricted the perception of the divine sense, so they could only vaguely see the situation inside, but they couldn't read it in great detail. Within the vine, there was indeed a human. That human seemed to be unaware of the situation outside and was currently sleeping on the ground.

Seeing this result, everyone was stunned. Sun Qinglong coldly said, "This Lu Yang, he knew he was going to die, yet he still purposely laid here to rest."

"Why would I sleep when I was alive? I would sleep forever after I died." Sun Qingming smiled and said, "Since he likes sleeping, then let him sleep for a while!"

An hour later, all the vines in the area were cut down and Lu Yang kept his celestial sword.

In the center of the vine, the vines were intertwined. It was extremely sturdy, like a huge birdcage.

Everyone felt the human stretching, and immediately stood up.

Sun Qinglong pointed at the vine and said, "Lu Yang, come out! Otherwise, we won't be polite. "

However, when Sun Qinglong's voice resounded, no one answered.

Sun Qinglong let out a cold snort and said to the crowd, "Sacrifice, kill …"

Everyone raised the celestial swords in their hands and performed a spell. The celestial swords floated in front of them and emitted buzzing sounds. Then, under their control, there was a swoosh sound as the celestial swords flew forward like lightning. The next moment, the sword went straight into the vine. When everyone thought that Lu Yang was definitely going to die, they heard a jingling sound from the vine.

"Spiritual Energy Shield?" The first thing that came to everyone's mind was that Lu Yang had used a powerful defensive skill. But then they realized that something was wrong. Even with Lu Yang's cultivation level, he shouldn't have been able to block the attack of the Immortal Sword!

Sun Qinglong felt it was strange, but he didn't think too much and said in a stern voice, "Withdraw, prepare for the second round of attacks."

Everyone began to cast incantation gestures. The Immortal swords that should have flown out did not fly out and had lost contact with them.

As everyone felt this result, their hearts thumped. They really couldn't understand just what was going on. If the celestial sword was destroyed, the owner of the treasure would be affected. They should also be severely injured by the sword. However, none of them were heavily injured, so why couldn't they contact the celestial sword?

What was even more strange was that the vine was emitting a powerful aura. Because of this aura, they were unable to sense what was going on inside the vine.

Sun Qinglong frowned as he had a bad premonition. He said, in a deep voice, "Be more alert. Be careful of Lu Yang's attacks …"

Everyone immediately became alert and focused on what was happening in front of them. The divine ability they had expected did not appear.

Time passed by, one breath at a time. Every breath felt very long to the cultivators of the Sun family. After an unknown period of time, footsteps came from within the vine. A patter sound could be heard as the incomparably hard Vajra Vine was forcefully torn apart by a pair of large hands. Everyone was stunned when they saw the pair of large hands.

Those two hands were pitch-black. They looked like human palms, but they were much larger than human palms.

"This …" Sun Qinglong took three steps back, unsure if the man in the vine was human or not.

If it wasn't, then why did he possess Lu Yang's blood essence? If it was, then this palm was obviously not Lu Yang's hands.

Just as everyone was puzzled, a huge crack appeared in the vine. A black figure appeared in their line of sight. The black shadow was almost three meters tall, seven feet wide. Its entire body was as black as ink, and its entire body was covered in dense black hair. It was simply not a human … no, it would be more accurate to say that it was a giant mountain ape that lived here.

There were many types of giant mountain apes, and most of them knew how to cultivate. One could even say that they were demon beasts.

Among these giant apes, there were three that were the most powerful. One was the Steel Arms Ape, and the other was the Copper Ape.

It was said that ordinary Steeled Arm Apes were able to tear apart black bear, tiger, and other fierce beasts. Those Steeled Arm Apes that cultivated beast cores were almost invincible existences at the same level. As for the Copper Apes, it wasn't that their heads were made of copper, but their entire bodies were incomparably hard. Even the sharpest teeth of a demon beast found it difficult to bite through the copper ape's fur.

One of the two giant mountain apes had extremely powerful attack and the other had amazing defense, but they were not the strongest existence among the two giant apes. Earlier, he said that the three giant apes were the most terrifying. If the first two made people tremble in fear, then the last one would be filled with despair and fear.

The Steeled Arm Copper Apes were the descendants of the first two great apes. Not only were their offensive capabilities shocking, their defensive capabilities had also increased by several levels. What was even more terrifying was that they looked silly and harmless, but they were also very bloodthirsty. Under normal circumstances, not to mention demon beasts, even birds wouldn't dare to appear within a hundred miles of the Steeled Arm Copper Ape.

Sure enough, this huge Steeled Arm Copper Ape was exactly the same as in the legends. It looked silly, and with a grin, it walked out of the vine. Only then did the crowd notice that the eight Immortal swords that the Steeled Arm Copper Ape was lying on had already been crushed into a lump of scrap and were thrown into a nearby corner.

When the crowd saw this scene, they all sucked in a breath of cold air, their eyes filled with terror. At this moment, they finally understood why the celestial sword remained unbroken and could no longer be controlled. One of their divine senses was still inside the sword, but the sword had become like this. The formation within it had been destroyed, so they weren't able to control it with their divine sense.

At this moment, everyone recognized the Steeled Arm Copper Ape and the fellow before them. They turned to look at Sun Qinglong.

They didn't say anything, nor did they dare to speak carelessly. Their eyes, however, were clearly saying, "What do we do now?"

Sun Qinglong didn't know what to do, but he knew that the Steeled Arm Copper Ape would attack whoever moved first.

The huge Steeled Arm Copper Ape looked like a child who wanted to play. It sat on the ground and waved to the others. Then, it patted the ground beside it, signaling Sun Qingming and the others to come over and sit beside it. With that casual pat, a palm print that was as deep as a fingernail was left on the ground. It could be seen that this slap contained a lot of power.

"Rank 4 beast!" Everyone's faces were ashen. A Rank 4 Demonic Beast was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse, how could they handle it?

The Steeled Arm Copper Ape saw that the other party did not come even after sitting down for a long time. It raised its head towards the sky and roared. Then, it immediately stood up.

This roar was unimaginably loud, and it contained a strong attack power. When everyone heard it, their bodies trembled, and the blood within them became chaotic. Sun Qingming and the others looked even more upset. With a roar, the Steeled Arm Copper Ape was able to launch such an attack. If it were to really attack, wouldn't that mean that they wouldn't even have a chance to fight back?

Sun Qingming's body could not help but tremble. However, he did not forget to curse in his heart, "Damn Lu Yang, where did you run off to? Why did a Steeled Arm Copper Ape suddenly appear here? "
