In the depths of the vast forest, there was an ancient platform that wasn't very tall.
Xing Jue was standing straight in the center like a javelin. His eyes were tightly shut as though he was searching for something.
"What's going on? Why are there so many people here? "
After Xing Jue opened his eyes, he couldn't help but frown. Previously, he had spread out his soul spirit and sensed that there were at least a thousand people rushing towards him from all directions.
Most of those people's strength were at the level of Asura Wu Zun. Although they weren't a threat to Xing Jue, such an unforeseen event still made him feel uneasy.
Swoosh!
All of a sudden, Xing Jue turned into a ray of flowing light and disappeared into the forest in a flash.
After Xing Jue left, the ancient platform that was engraved with talismans also returned to its usual tranquility.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Xing Jue's speed was very fast. Like the wind and lightning, he shuttled through the vast forest like a phantom. Almost no one could discover his traces.
"This forest is so big. It seems like it has no end. It seems like the West Saint World is really vast!"
While running at high speed, Xing Jue's soul spirit maintained its extreme state. He had just arrived and didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble. Therefore, he wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
However, after running for a while, he realized that the vastness of this forest was far beyond his imagination.
At this moment, he was like a lone boat drifting in the vast ocean. He didn't know when he would reach the shore.
"This feeling, could it be a ferocious beast?!"
Suddenly, Xing Jue stopped running and swept his sharp eyes into the distance. He felt an aura that he had never felt before, but it was filled with killing power.
Before coming here, Xing Jue had heard from Hun Ming that in the vast Sacred Region, there were millions of races and many beasts. Apart from the Magical Beasts and Spiritual Beasts, there was another type of beast that was very powerful — the ferocious beasts.
The forms of the Vicious Beasts were far inferior to the Demonic Beasts and Spirit Beasts. Demonic Beasts and Spirit Beasts still had spiritual intelligence. As long as they were not restricted, they could transform into human forms. If they cultivated to the extreme, they could even become stronger than humans.
Although Direbeasts were equally powerful, their intelligence was very weak. Even the strongest Direbeast could not transform into a human, nor could it reach the intelligence of a human.
Ferocious beasts were simply tools of slaughter, products of slaughter left behind by nature. They could be considered a different kind of existence in the Sanctuary.
At this moment, a hundred miles away from Xing Jue, there was such a ferocious beast. It was fighting with humans and had the upper hand.
"This forest is boundless and a little strange. That person is clearly in danger. Why don't we save his life and ask him about everything?"
Xing Jue originally wanted to see the ferocious beast's elegance, but after thinking that it was his first time here and he needed to understand the situation here, he decided to save the person he did not know.
"Whoosh." Thinking up to here, Xing Jue didn't hesitate. As a gust of wind blew past, Xing Jue had already floated away like the wind.
… …
In the direction where Xing Jue sensed the ferocious beast, a young man was madly running with all his strength. His footsteps were very profound, and with each step he took, a gust of wind would rise. It could be seen that it was a movement Battle Skill.
But even so, he was still unable to shake off the ten-meter-long, rat-like ferocious beast behind him.
Although this ferocious beast looked like a rat, its skin was covered in black scales. The scales emitted light, giving people a feeling that it was indestructible.
Its watermelon-sized eyes emitted a sinister blood-red light, and its mouth was filled with fangs. It was a ghastly sight.
But the most shocking thing was that it was walking on air. It could be seen that this fellow could actually fly.
It was no wonder that the young man was running in the forest and not flying. Because with his size, he had an advantage in this forest.
"Save me!"
Turning his head to look, he discovered that the ferocious beast was actually getting closer and closer. The young man's nose was already full of snot and tears.
Although he and the ferocious beast were both high-tier Asura Wu Zun, and he had mastered many profound Battle Skills, he was completely at a disadvantage in front of that ferocious beast.
But in front of that Magical Beast, he was completely at a disadvantage and couldn't take advantage of it.
In fact, in this forest, ferocious beasts were definitely the nightmare of all Asura Wu Zun.
Ferocious beasts had fast attacks, great power, and high defenses. Although they did not have any special Battle Skills, their powerful physiques were the power of their bloodlines. Among those of the same level, almost no one could match them.
This young man had been attracted by the Space Gate that Xing Jue had opened earlier and wanted to go take a look. But he had not expected to run into a ferocious beast, which made him extremely regretful.
"You bunch of heartless things! How dare you leave me in the lurch! I curse you all …"
The young man was already close to despair. He began to loudly curse. He could sense that there were many experts hiding in the dark, but they were unwilling to help him.
But this could not be blamed on them. In this kind of place, no one was willing to provoke a ferocious beast, and no one would step forward for a stranger.
Whoosh!
But just as the young man was in despair, a gust of wind swept past in front of him, lifting up the fallen leaves. Xing Jue's figure appeared a thousand meters away from the man like a ghost.
"Hey, get out of the way!"
The man really hoped that someone would save him, but he did not want to implicate others. When he saw Xing Jue's thin and weak appearance, he thought that Xing Jue was a weakling.
And right now, the two of them were only a thousand meters apart. Under his rapid running, it was impossible for him to change directions. This made him feel that Xing Jue would very likely be trampled to death by the ferocious beast behind him.
"This is a ferocious beast. It doesn't look much different from a Magical Beast!"
Xing Jue did not care about the man's words at all. Instead, he stared at the ferocious beast behind him. However, it was clear that this ferocious beast had disappointed Xing Jue.
"Hey, get out of the way. Do you want to be trampled into a meat patty?"
In the blink of an eye, the man had already arrived beside Xing Jue. He did not stop, but he still activated his Asura power to engulf Xing Jue, wanting Xing Jue to avoid the ferocious beast behind him.
But at this moment, the man was greatly alarmed, because the Asura power that he thought was not weak, blew past Xing Jue like a gentle breeze, unable to move Xing Jue even half a step.
In the blink of an eye, the man had just run past Xing Jue when the ferocious beast had already swept over with a ruthless aura.
At this moment, Xing Jue could clearly feel the aura of the ferocious beast. It was ruthless, cold-blooded, and without a trace of emotion. It was the most primitive killing intent, and it only wanted to slaughter all the living beings in front of it.
"Fall for me!"
* boom *
Xing Jue attacked like lightning. With a punch, space trembled, and the ancient tree that was a hundred meters tall also swayed, unable to withstand the power of his punch.
* plop *
A thick cloud of smoke rose, and the ferocious beast collapsed at Xing Jue's feet. Its indestructible scales had been pierced by Xing Jue, and its sturdy skull had been shattered by Xing Jue. As for its soul, it had already been devoured by Xing Jue's soul.
After obtaining the inheritance of half a divine artifact, Xing Jue's bloodline power had been completely stimulated, and with its reminder, Xing Jue did not want to waste any more opportunities to increase his strength.
Therefore, Xing Jue would devour the souls of his opponents and use them for himself. Although this kind of absorption was insignificant, it was as easy as lifting a finger, so Xing Jue naturally would not waste it.
"Wow! Brother, you're an Asura Martial God? No, even an Asura Martial God wouldn't be this strong, right? Could you be a mid-stage Asura Martial God? Or are you a high-stage Asura Martial God? "
Right at this moment, the young man who had already run far away actually ran back.
His eyes darted back and forth between Xing Jue's figure, as if he was admiring a rare treasure. His face was filled with envy.
He had witnessed the entire process of Xing Jue's punch, which had deeply shocked him. He knew how terrifying the power of the punch was.
"Brother, it's very dangerous here. You should stay away from the ferocious beasts if you encounter them again."
Xing Jue smiled and scanned the surrounding forest. He knew that many pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness were watching him.
He was confused why there were so many people in this vast forest, and why their strength was below the Asura Martial God, and between the Asura Wu Zun. However, he could not ask about it now.
Xing Jue reminded the young man, before turning around and leaving. The truth was, he had no intention of leaving.
"Hey, Brother, you can't leave."
As Xing Jue had expected, as soon as he was about to leave, the young man that he had saved stopped in front of Xing Jue.
"What's the matter?" Xing Jue pretended to be confused.
"No … no … yes, Brother, you've saved my life. Although it's nothing for you, it's a life-saving favor for me."
"I can't repay you for saving my life, but I have to repay you. If you don't mind, why don't I treat you to a feast? Otherwise … I won't feel at ease, "the young man begged in a sincere tone.
Leaving aside the sincere look on the man's face, which made it hard for Xing Jue to reject, the truth was that Xing Jue had saved him to learn something from him.
Besides, after Xing Jue had activated the Space Gate, he had been in a daze for a long time before he arrived at this place.
At this moment, his stomach was already rumbling with hunger. When he heard the words "feast", Xing Jue replied without hesitation, "Sure!"
Xing Jue had thought that the man would bring Xing Jue to the most luxurious restaurant in the vicinity to eat to his heart's content in order to thank him for saving his life.
However, there was always a gap between reality and imagination. After the man carried the execution for a while, he found a flat piece of land and actually stopped just like that.
Moreover, the storage bracelet on his wrist glowed continuously. Tables, chairs, stools, bowls, and cutlery appeared.
Soon, specially brewed lamb leg, roasted chicken, roasted rabbit, and many other delicacies were brought out.
Xing Jue finally understood what the man meant by "feast". In the end, he had brought Xing Jue to the forest for a picnic.
