As he sprinted, Lu Sheng dragged Pang Yuanjun with him. His figure flickered as he leaped through the forest.
Since he was too fast and had a special identity, nobody could react in time. He knocked Pang Yuanjun unconscious and dragged him away.
By the time the others reacted, the Northern Blade King attacked with all his might. He seized the opportunity to break out of the encirclement and turn the situation around. The other two Martial Emperors could only do their best to hold him back to prevent the battle from collapsing.
After sprinting for more than ten minutes, Lu Sheng leaped and tapped lightly on a tree branch. He dove and landed beside a lake.
"Who's there?" His gaze suddenly turned cold. He looked to his left and right.
He was surrounded by a dense sea of trees. Just now, he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him from the shadows.
It was an eerie feeling.
He carefully placed Pang Yuanjun on the ground. Lu Sheng stretched his neck. He looked around him, and his gaze fell on the small lake before him.
"Thud."
He took a step forward slowly and crushed a dried leaf.
"Splash!"
A huge wave of water more than ten meters tall surged into the sky. A huge pitch-black alligator charged out of the lake!
The alligator bared its scissor-like fangs and bit down at Lu Sheng at lightning speed.
"Hm?" Lu Sheng moved like lightning. He shifted to the right for some distance. Then, he clawed with all his might with his right hand.
"Bam!"
The eight meters long alligator's head was pressed down by his claw. His five nails pierced through the alligator like a knife piercing through tofu.
"Roar!"
The alligator roared. The scales on its body swiftly glowed red. Its entire body rolled, and its huge tail lashed at Lu Sheng like a whip.
"This guy's not weak! Isn't the head supposed to be a weak point? "Lu Sheng could clearly sense that the alligator's attacks were methodical. It did not seem like a wild creature. Moreover, its strength far surpassed that of an ordinary alligator. It was on par with a Martial Emperor.
He raised a hand to block the tail. There was a loud bang.
Lu Sheng retreated more than ten steps before he managed to stabilize himself.
"It's really effortless. I thought I'd have to wait for an opportunity." Two strange men, one tall and one short, slowly walked out from the left and right sides.
The two of them looked extremely similar. Both of them had two large lumps on their foreheads. Apart from their height, they seemed to be the same person with a different set of clothes.
"To think that the great Pang Yuanjun would be killed by a Little Fatty. How unsightly. "
"Cut the crap. Let's do it. A long night is fraught with trouble. "The other shorty said coldly.
Lu Sheng could faintly feel that the giant crocodile was also surrounding him in a triangular formation with the two of them. Obviously, this giant crocodile was most likely an ambush that they had laid here in advance.
"A crocodile at the Martial Emperor Realm. Interesting!" Lu Sheng licked his lips.
He had been caught off guard when he fought Pang Yuanjun earlier. Now that he was facing off against three Martial Emperors, he wanted to ask what his current cultivation base was.
"Kill Pang Yuanjun!"
With a low growl, the two men and the crocodile attacked at the same time. They charged at Lu Sheng from three directions.
They ignored Pang Yuanjun, who was lying on the side. Instead, they targeted Lu Sheng first. They understood that if they did not deal with Lu Sheng first, they would not be able to kill Pang Yuanjun.
The three shadows charged toward Lu Sheng viciously from three different directions, bringing with them an ear-piercing sonic boom that sounded like rockets shooting into the sky.
Lu Sheng had just forcefully extrapolated the Straggling Star Path Toad Method to the tenth stage. The Straggling Star Path Toad Method originally only had seven stages. The tenth stage was the limit of this cultivation method's theoretical framework. It could not be extrapolated any further.
After reaching the tenth stage, the improvement he received was far greater than the previous seven stages. Lu Sheng could vaguely feel a thin layer of tough, transparent skin growing on the surface of his body. His defenses were greatly increased.
"Dew of Dawn!"
"Dusk of Dawn!"
One of them was taller than the other, and the other was shorter. The short knives in their hands each drew two rainbow-like streaks of flowing light. They moved at a strange rhythm that would make one vomit blood. Suddenly, they stabbed at Lu Sheng's armpits.
The huge crocodile lunged at Lu Sheng. Its sharp claws and huge mouth attacked. The pungent stench could be smelled from several meters away.
"Instant Destruction, Thousand Layers!" Lu Sheng's palms turned into blades and met the attacks from both sides.
He turned to the side in front of him. His right leg rose into the air like a battle axe. It tore through the air with a terrifying sound and landed on the side of the crocodile's mouth.
"Rumble!"
The two silhouettes and the huge crocodile exploded on the spot. They staggered backward.
Blood splattered in midair. Lu Sheng grabbed a severed arm in each hand. He tossed it aside casually. He charged forward, and the reaction force under his feet exploded. A huge crater several meters in diameter appeared.
Using the reaction force, he appeared before the huge crocodile as if he had teleported. He joined his palms together and stabbed forward!
"Splat!"
The huge crocodile's stomach was pierced by his palms. Half of it was instantly buried.
"Roar!"
Lu Sheng was about to finish off this monster once and for all when two gusts of wind came at him from both sides.
He retreated calmly. He was about to attack again to kill these three fellows.
Although they were Martial Emperors, the three of them were only mid-stage Martial Emperors while the other two were early-stage Martial Emperors. If it were not for the fact that Pang Yuanjun was unconscious, they would not have dared to ambush him.
When he thought about this, Lu Sheng turned and glanced behind him.
'Where's Pang Yuanjun?'
He was instantly stunned. There was nothing behind him. There was no sign of anyone. Pang Yuanjun, who had been lying unconscious here a moment ago, was nowhere to be seen.
"Kill him!"
The two men and the crocodile had noticed this as well. However, now that Lu Sheng had severed an arm each, their eyes were bloodshot. They decided to kill Lu Sheng first before anything else.
The three of them charged at Lu Sheng again.
A dozen breaths later.
All that was left around Lu Sheng was minced meat and tattered crocodile scales.
He stood alone amidst the flesh and blood. His expression was slightly sour. If it were not for the fact that this body's cultivation base had not been raised to its limit, he would not have been unable to sense Pang Yuanjun's whereabouts.
"I told you that we're going home to reunite. Father, did you turn a deaf ear to my words?"
He looked to his left and right. He immediately noticed a white spot on a nearby tree trunk. It seemed to be a footprint.
With a cold snort, Lu Sheng leaped into the air and leaped in that direction.
…
…
Pang Yuanjun leaped dizzily through the forest.
He was knocked unconscious and dragged away before he knew what was going on. When he woke up, he discovered that there were people fighting fiercely beside him.
The people fighting were his old enemies, the Two Elders of the North Distance and their Heavenly Pool Crocodile. He knew that the two of them were lying in ambush here. He had planned to deal with them later. He did not expect this move to save his life.
The person fighting them was the young man who resembled his son, Pang Sicheng.
While the three men and the crocodile were engaged in battle, he left the battlefield silently and hurried toward the Green Dew Altar's secret base nearby.
The military's main camp was occupied by the Northern Blade King. They could not guarantee his safety. However, aside from this, there was still a base that he had managed for a long time. It could definitely keep him safe.
However, he had built this base in secret as a backup plan in case he failed to unify the martial arts world in the future. Alas, he had to use it to deal with that detestable mysterious person first.
Pang Yuanjun sprinted through the forest. He was furious and aggrieved.
However, when he thought back to the person's strength, he knew that even if he were to defend himself with all his might, it would be difficult for him to survive that terrifying attack. He suspected that the person was a peak Martial Emperor elite in disguise.
After sprinting for about ten minutes, Pang Yuanjun landed lightly before a group of white buildings made of stone.
Men in green martial arts attire patrolled the area outside the buildings. When they saw him, they quickly approached him and knelt down respectfully.
"Greetings, Main Altar Master!"
"Where's Elder Xu and the others?" Pang Yuanjun asked quickly as he strode into the white stone buildings.
A few of them quickly stood up and answered, "Elder Xu has just arrived with his men. The Northern Bear King, Elder Su, has also arrived."
Pang Yuanjun felt slightly safer as he asked in a deep voice, "Is the Sand King here?"
"He should be here soon," the man had just replied.
Immediately, a sharp and hoarse male voice drifted over from the forest.
"I've been here for a long time. I've been waiting outside for you, Main Altar Master. I heard that you're attacking the Northern Blade King, Brother Pang. Why are you done so early? Why don't you come and wait for me? "This man was the ruler of the desert to the west, the Sand King Hong Quanguo.
"There's just an accident. I'm here early. You don't have to worry about anything else, Brother Hong, "Pang Yuanjun said coldly.
He was actually a member of a mysterious organization known as the Half Devil.
This organization would hold a meeting every year in a different place. This year, it happened to be at his place.
He had planned to attend the meeting and kill the Northern Blade King along the way. However, he did not expect this accident to happen just as he was about to succeed.
"Brother Pang, you look like you're in a hurry and your gait is unsightly. Did something happen? Did the Northern Blade King turn the tables? "the Sand King teased with a smile.
At the mention of this, Pang Yuanjun's expression changed slightly as well. He recalled the man just now.
He did not reply. With a single step, he quickly leaped into the stone forest. He turned left and right, and soon arrived before a small stone building with simple decorations.
The stone building had three floors. He could vaguely see people sitting opposite each other on the third floor. They were drinking and listening to music.
"Why are you in such a hurry, Brother Pang?" An old woman's voice came from the third floor.
Pang Yuanjun exhaled deeply and calmed himself down. He leaped and shot into the air. He landed on the balcony of the third floor of the stone building like an arrow.
"I've something important to attend to. I'm a little late. Please forgive me. I'm afraid that I'll need your help with something. "He stood on the balcony and solemnly cupped his fists. He bowed and bowed.
Two old men with white hair and beards were sitting in the living room on the third floor. They were eating and drinking as they listened to the singers and dancers perform beside them.
Suddenly, they heard that Pang Yuanjun, who had said he would be late, had arrived early. The moment he saw them, he asked for their help. This puzzled the two elites.
"Brother Pang, you're like the sun at high noon now. Your cultivation base might not be at the peak, but there are few in the martial world who can match you. Even if we fight you, we're only on par with you." The old woman had a strange expression on her face. She asked slowly, "May I know what's so important that you're asking for our help?"
