"What if we lose the bet?" Ouyang Shuang looked at Du Shaofu and asked.
Du Shaofu smiled embarrassedly and said, "If we lose the bet, everyone can run as fast as they can."
Hearing this, Dai Xingyu, Ouyang Shuang, Qing Luan and Xiao Qing rolled their eyes at Du Shaofu speechlessly.
After a while, Du Shaofu had Ouyang Shuang, Dai Xingyu, Qing Luan, and Xiao Qing stand in the distance. Hand seals were formed in his hands, and rays of light surged out, turning into talisman runes that flew out and sank into the ground before disappearing into the void.
"Sister Xingyu, what is Brother Shaofu doing? It doesn't look like he is setting up a formation …" Qing Luan Xiao Qing looked at Du Shaofu and was surprised. It didn't look like he was setting up a formation, nor did it look like he was setting up a seal. It was very strange.
"I don't know either." Dai Xingyu was also very surprised at this moment. As a talisman master, she also didn't know what Du Shaofu was doing at this moment, but she could see that it was very mysterious.
After a while, Du Shaofu retracted his hand seals and the rays of light disappeared. He stepped into the void and a slight smile appeared on his face.
"Black Ape, send out the news. Next, it will depend on luck." Du Shaofu said to Black Ape beside him, also a little nervous.
"Yes, master." Black Ape nodded. Rays of light quietly overflowed from his hand and dissipated into the void.
Looking into the distance, Du Shaofu's eyes flickered with some anticipation. If the unfortunate one was Lei Yang, there was nothing to be afraid of. At least he could test himself.
"What is brother Shaofu doing?" Qing Luan looked at Du Shaofu and Black Ape from afar and was very puzzled. She didn't know what he was trying to do mysteriously.
Ouyang Shuang faintly smiled as she looked at the tall and straight figure in the distance. Her red lips slightly parted as she opened her mouth to speak: "He let the Demonic Ape spread the news and purposely exposed himself. When the time comes, Lei Yang and the others will definitely split up to help. If the ones who come to help the Demonic Ape are Ground Wolf and Ice Toad, then they can be dealt with directly."
"So that's how it is. Brother Shaofu is really treacherous." Qing Luan and Xiao Qing clicked their tongues. That fellow looked so righteous, yet they didn't expect him to be so treacherous. He was basically inviting them into a trap.
"What if it's the Thunder Goat?" Qing Luan Xiao Qing raised her brows. She had just heard that the Thunder Goat was a Saint Beast Late Stage.
"Then let's run while it's still early." Dai Xingyu smiled faintly.
Du Shaofu stood quietly in the void, waiting.
"Master, if it's the Ground Wolf, you have to be careful. The Ground Wolf isn't simple. It's at the peak of Saint Beast Middle Stage, not far from the Saint Beast Late Stage."
The Demonic Ape said to Du Shaofu with respect and gentleness in his eyes. The Blood Soul Seal placed on him wouldn't affect his cultivation in the future, but it was enough to ensure that he would be sincere and would never betray him.
"It's fine as long as it's not the Thunder Goat. If it's the Thunder Goat, you don't have to care about me. You can leave with Xingyu and the others first." Du Shaofu said to the Demonic Ape. He had placed the Blood Soul Seal in the Demonic Ape's beast soul and laid down a beast-controlling technique. He was treating the Demonic Ape as one of his own. If they encountered the Thunder Goat, the Demonic Ape wouldn't be of any help with his strength.
"Master …"
Just when the Demonic Ape was about to continue speaking, Du Shaofu suddenly raised his eyes and looked into the distance. The corner of his mouth curled into a smile as he said: "Seems like our luck is not bad. They're here. Get ready …"
"Boom!"
Hearing Du Shaofu's words, the Demonic Ape's eyes suddenly moved. In an instant, his aura burst out.
"Ao!"
In an instant, the Demonic Ape reverted to his original form. A ferocious giant ape appeared. He was several hundred feet tall and was like a huge mountain. He was covered in thick gray scales and his eyes were red like two blood moons covered in thick fog. His aura was fierce and gloomy.
"Demonic Ape, is this the human?"
As the Demonic Ape reverted to his original form, a light broke through the void in the distance. It was as if the void had been torn apart. A figure descended and appeared beside the Demonic Ape.
The person who came was a middle-aged man. He was not very tall, and his white clothes were covered in layers of light. His eyes were slightly protruding, and his appearance was extremely eye-catching. However, there was an icy aura on his body. As he descended, the surrounding temperature suddenly plummeted, and frost appeared in the Void.
"Ice Toad!"
Du Shaofu looked at the middle-aged man in white. He didn't expect that after all his preparations, it would be Ice Toad who came. His cultivation level was similar to the Demonic Ape's. Although he wasn't weak, he didn't pose much of a threat to Du Shaofu.
"Be careful. This human is very strong. Why are you the only one here? Even when Lie Diao and I joined forces, we were still at a disadvantage!" the Demonic Ape asked Ice Toad with a grave expression.
"I'm with Lord Lei Yang. Lord Lei Yang went to support Lie Diao. I don't know where Di Lang is. He hasn't arrived yet."
Ice Toad's expression also became serious. He looked at Du Shaofu with an extremely gloomy gaze. He didn't dare to be careless. He had heard that this human had caused the Demonic Ape and Lie Diao to suffer a great loss. Moreover, his cultivation level was only a little lower than Lie Diao's.
"Let's join forces and stall for time until Lord Lei Yang arrives," the Demonic Ape said to Ice Toad.
"Okay!"
Ice Toad nodded. With a stomp of his foot, his figure pounced forward in an instant. Monstrous Profound Energy suddenly swept out from within his body. This Profound Energy was incomparably cold. Instantly, the entire sky darkened and was covered in frost. A bone-chilling aura covered the entire sky. Cold winds blew and whistled endlessly in the sky.
"Coo …"
The sound was like the ringing of a bell, shaking the heavens and the earth. As Ice Toad's figure pounced forward, he transformed into his huge body. A snow-white ice toad covered in layers of white scales, as if covered in an ice armor. It had a metallic texture and was suffused with light. Although it was large, it was much smaller than the Demonic Ape's body. It was only a few dozen feet in size. However, the aura from its body was definitely not inferior to the Demonic Ape's. The cold aura was even more bizarre, freezing the void wherever it passed.
Seeing the Ice Toad's aura, Du Shaofu's eyes inwardly raised. It was not inferior to the Demonic Ape. Among those with the same cultivation level, it could be considered as one of the top.
"Swish …"
However, the unforeseen event happened too quickly. Everything happened as fast as lightning. Just as the Ice Toad transformed into its original body, the Demonic Ape behind it showed no mercy. Its ferocious eyes blazed as it immediately attacked. Its huge hand moved and its blade-like fingertips tore through the void. Like an iron hook, it slightly curved as it grabbed towards the Ice Toad's back.
This claw seemed to want to completely envelop the Ice Toad's body. Its aura caused the void to explode. Talisman runes blazed and interweaved. It was incomparably violent!
"Demonic Ape, what are you doing …"
The sudden turn of events caused the Ice Toad's expression to drastically change as it sensed the Demonic Ape's attack from behind. With a loud roar, it instantly turned around and waved its claw downwards. An icy light pillar shot out, blocking the Demonic Ape's attack.
"Clang!" "Clang!"
The two attacks instantly collided. A muffled clang resounded as the sound of wind and thunder rang out. It was as if metal and stone had struck each other. It was deafening!
"Humph!" "Hmph!"
A muffled groan came from the Ice Toad's throat. Its body was directly pushed back. It had suffered a loss. Its cultivation and strength were about the same as the Demonic Ape's, but the Demonic Ape had long been prepared to attack. However, the Ice Toad had only fought back in a panic. There was a huge gap between them.
Then, the Ice Toad was pushed back. While its eyes were still in shock, Du Shaofu's figure had already appeared like a ghost. With a sweep of his purple robe and a wave of his palm, a golden light exploded in the sky. A bright golden talisman rune surged out like lightning and thunder, turning into a brilliant golden wave. Its aura was terrifying and monstrous. The golden light gushed out like a sun.
At this moment, the Ice Toad's eyes were filled with shock as it felt the aura of a Beast Sovereign. Frost erupted from its body and turned into a barrier. However, under the impact of the dazzling golden light, it was easily destroyed. The Ice Toad spat out a mouthful of blood. The Ice Scale Armor on its body was unable to withstand the domineering impact and cracked and bled. Its body felt as if it was being crushed by a hundred thousand mountains, and it fell from the sky involuntarily.
"Swish!" "Swish!"
However, this was not the end. Before its body, which was hundreds of feet long, had landed on the ground, a purple-robed figure wrapped in golden light had already appeared in front of it. An overbearing and ferocious aura swept over. A pair of sharp and intimidating eyes rippled with golden light as they grew larger and larger as its pupils shrunk in shock. Subsequently, a foot violently stomped on its body. The foot landed with a loud bang, causing the surrounding space to distort.
"Bang bang!" "Bang!"
Everything was done in one breath. The Ice Toad's body fell to the ground, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to shake. The ground cracked and debris flew into the sky. The scales on its body shattered and the talisman runes were shattered. Large mouthfuls of dark red blood directly spurted out from its mouth.
Falling head-on, the Ice Toad's beast soul emitted an aura of death. This kind of strength was simply not on the same level as the Ice Toad. There was no way it could resist. That stomp contained an astonishing domineering pressure. It was a supreme beast!
"I've been betrayed …"
The Ice Toad's ferocious eyes were filled with fear. It was suppressed like a hot knife through butter. Blood spurted out, and its expression was filled with disbelief and shock. At this moment, it realized that it had been betrayed by the Demonic Ape. The other party was waiting for it to take the bait.
"Coo …"
The Nightmare Ape had only attacked once before it stood in the distance. When it saw the ice toad being easily suppressed, it involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva. In this short period of time, compared to the last time it fought against its master, its master's strength had increased by several times. This rate of improvement was too frightening!
Qing Luan, Little Qing, Dai Xingyu, and Ouyang Shuang were watching from afar. At this moment, looking at the scene in front of them, they could not help but click their tongues.
"Brother Shaofu is so strong. He must have made a breakthrough!"
Qing Luan and Little Qing were stunned. The Ice Toad was at the peak of the Initial Saint Beast Realm. A dignified Saint Beast Realm expert could not withstand a single blow at this moment.
"Rumble …"
At this moment, Du Shaofu did not stop at all. His hand rapidly formed a seal, accompanied by a supreme pressure spreading out. His palm was covered with a mysterious seal.
"Boom!"
In the seal, the phantom of a golden-winged roc appeared. Its entire body was golden and dazzling, with silver-yellow electric arcs. A monstrous pressure spread out from it, accompanied by lightning and thunder, and the silver-yellow electric arcs suddenly erupted!
"Roar!" "Roar!"
All of a sudden, the roars of dragons and tigers, as well as the roars of lions and phoenixes, rang out from Du Shaofu's hand seals. A terrifying aura erupted as a towering pressure descended, containing a pressure that no beast could resist.
This kind of pressure came from the souls of all beasts, from within their bloodlines. It was as if a supreme beast had descended, enough to make all beasts submit, and it was difficult for them to resist.
When this terrifying pressure descended, the Ice Toad Beast Soul trembled, and its entire body trembled. It was completely suppressed.
"Chi la …"
In an instant, Du Shaofu's hand seal, accompanied by the roar of a dragon, phoenix, lion, and tiger, fell directly into the glabella of the Ice Toad, who was almost stunned and unable to resist.
The strange golden seal, accompanied by the supreme beast pressure, turned into a ball of golden lightning and disappeared into the glabella of the Ice Toad.
"Chi la la …"
Hand seals were still forming in Du Shaofu's hand, and there was a mysterious fluctuation of runes on his body. As the hand seals formed, an extremely strange light with a terrifying supreme pressure fell between the Ice Toad's glabella one after another.
Unknowingly, the Ice Toad's fierce eyes quietly closed.
This was the Blood Soul Seal, and this Ice Toad was not inferior to the Demonic Ape. He had more and more enemies in this fearsome land, and Du Shaofu intended to subdue the Ice Toad. Even if he could not bring it out of this fearsome land, at least for now, he could add a genuine Sacred Beast Realm cultivator to his side.
As the Blood Soul Seal was arranged, the beast soul in the Ice Toad's mind was still making its final struggle, constantly roaring. The beast soul was like a miniature version of its original body, resisting with all its strength, not wanting to be completely suppressed.
"Evil beast, it's too late! "
Du Shaofu's voice resounded in the Ice Toad's mind. Dazzling golden light burst out, and a hand seal like the shadow of a Golden-winged Roc appeared. Mighty electric arcs raged, and monstrous supreme pressure swept out, directly suppressing the Ice Toad's beast soul. No matter how fiercely the beast soul struggled and roared, it could not resist at all.
A beast soul of the Sacred Beast Realm was no small matter. The Ice Toad's cultivation was at the peak of the initial stage of the Sacred Beast Realm, and its beast soul was even more powerful. If it was another person with the same cultivation level as Du Shaofu, even if he also mastered the Blood Soul Seal, it would be absolutely impossible to suppress the Ice Toad so easily.
However, this Ice Toad encountered Du Shaofu. When Du Shaofu was still at the initial stage of the Sacred Beast Realm, the abnormal power of his spirit, coupled with the Blood Soul Seal, which specialized in suppressing beast souls, even ten Demonic Apes' beast souls could not resist.
At this moment, Du Shaofu had made another breakthrough, and his spirit was even stronger, and his strength had reached a new level. This Ice Toad could not resist at all.
"Beast Control Technique. "
As Du Shaofu's hand seals continued to condense, a dazzling golden light finally sank into the Ice Toad's glabella.
"Ao …"
In the Ice Toad's mind, there were the roars of dragons and tigers, and the roars of phoenixes and lions. Under the monstrous pressure, a dazzling shadow of the Golden-winged Roc turned into a blazing golden light, and instantly entered the Ice Toad's beast soul.
This was a natural suppression, and there was no way to resist. After struggling for a while, the Ice Toad's beast soul gradually began to be tamed, and a moment later, it completely stopped struggling.
"Phew …"
In the outside world, Du Shaofu withdrew his hand seals, but at this moment, his expression suddenly froze, and his eyes were fixed on a certain void.
The Ice Toad's closed eyes opened, and its huge body rose, and turned into its original white-robed middle-aged man. Its body was dripping with blood, and there were pools of blood. The original fierce light in its eyes had quietly disappeared, and was replaced by awe. Facing Du Shaofu, it bowed its head and said, "Master!" "Master."
At this moment, Du Shaofu's expression was solemn, and he immediately transmitted his voice to the Ice Toad, the Nightmare Ape, and Ouyang Shuang in the distance, "Quickly retreat, quickly!" "Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
As Du Shaofu's voice fell, Ouyang Shuang, Dai Xingyu, Qing Luan, Xiao Qing, and the others did not hesitate, and turned to leave. It must be that Lei Yang had come, and they would only be a burden if they stayed, and would not be of any help.
The Nightmare Ape took the Ice Toad and also retreated in an instant. They had already agreed, and it also felt the aura of Lei Yang, so it would not be of any help if it stayed.
"Chi la la …"
The void fluctuated with electric arcs, and thunderclouds occupied the void. A void crack directly appeared in the sky, and a thin and withered figure appeared in the sky.
With the appearance of this figure, there were electric arcs fluctuating in the sky, and the whole space quietly solidified, and a destructive aura descended.
Du Shaofu raised his head and looked at the newcomer. Just the aura alone could cause a change in heaven and earth, and this kind of strength was unfathomable. This was not the first expert he had seen, but it was definitely the first expert he had faced with with such strength.
A thin and withered old man appeared in Du Shaofu's sight. He was thin and small, like a teenager, and his face seemed to be only skin and bones. There was no flesh on his face, and there were a few strands of white goatee on his chin that moved with the wind. A pair of deep eyes, flashing with lightning, made one's Primordial Spirit burn for no reason, as if it was about to be destroyed.
When the old man appeared, the surrounding void solidified. He looked around and saw the Nightmare Ape, the Ice Toad, Ouyang Shuang, and the others who were quickly leaving. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but he did not chase after them. Feeling the surrounding aura and the chaotic scene, it was not difficult to know that there had been a fight just now.
"You are the human who obtained the other half of the mystic bone?"
Lei Yang looked at Du Shaofu, and his voice was like thunder, which was extremely inconsistent with his thin and withered body.
"You are Lei Yang, right?"
Du Shaofu looked at the old man. Needless to say, from the aura on his body, this person was the Lei Yang that the Nightmare Ape had mentioned. As a Rogue Cultivator, he was so strong, which was really extraordinary. No wonder he had a place in this fearsome place, and made the Human Race and the Beast Alliance wary of him.
However, seeing Lei Yang, Du Shaofu could not help but think of his brother, Zhen Qingchun. Lei Yang's appearance gave people a wretched feeling, and he did not look like a good person. However, the degree of wretchedness was far inferior to his brother, Zhen Qingchun.
After that, Du Shaofu's lips curled into a bitter smile. What was supposed to come had finally come. Originally, he was a little regretful that only the Ice Toad had come. Who knew that Lei Yang would come right after.
"It seems like the other half of the mystic bone is indeed with you. Hand it over and become my battle servant. I can spare your life and give you endless benefits. It will not be difficult for you to improve further in the future."
