Chapter 13451: Unreasonable Demonic Soul Beast

The male warrior seemed to have sensed the impending danger. He retreated violently the moment the cold light flashed and escaped to a safe area hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.

He gasped for breath, his face full of relief and fear. He was relieved that he was cautious enough and did not blindly follow the female warrior to his death.

His eyes were empty as he looked in the direction where the female warrior fell, but he didn't have time to feel any sadness in his heart, and he didn't even have time to collect the body of his former companion. Fear was like a cold snake, wrapping around his heart, making him dare not stay for even a moment.

He turned around and ran with all his strength, each step expressing the struggle and desire on the brink of life and death. In the blink of an eye, his figure merged into the distant horizon and disappeared at the end of the sky, leaving only emptiness and dead silence.

At the moment he escaped, he clearly saw the scene of the female warrior's death. It was the male earth spirit's silent attack, like the god of death coming, taking away the life of the female warrior.

At that moment, the shock and fear in his heart reached its peak, and he truly understood how weak he was. Even the earth spirits guarding this area were so terrifying, and they actually wanted to challenge the demon soul beasts inside. This was simply ignorance and a mockery of strength.

His heart was filled with regret and self-blame, but he also became more determined to escape from this place.

……

At this time, Ling Xiao was in a dark and mysterious space. He was completely unaware of the changes in the outside world. However, even in this seemingly peaceful area, he encountered unprecedented troubles.

Right in front of him stood three monsters that looked like demon beasts but could walk upright. These monsters were huge, about six or seven meters tall, standing like giant towers, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Their bodies from the head down are quite similar to humans, with strong limbs and upright bodies, but the head looks like a real demon soul beast, hideous and terrifying, with eyes as dark as the abyss, flashing with bloodthirsty cold light.

The monster had a long tail dragging behind it, which sometimes curled up and sometimes swayed, as if it contained endless power and majesty.

Their skin is like that of a demon beast, covered with strange patterns and raised scales, making them look hideous and ferocious, making people feel afraid at first sight.

Ling Xiao frowned and looked back and forth at these monsters, trying to find a breakthrough.

At this moment, Jin Yan's low voice came to his ears:

"This should be the human form of the Demon Soul Beast! I heard Ah Dai mention that some powerful Demon Soul Beasts have the ability to transform their bodies. They change their images to make their appearance closer to that of the high and mighty Demon Lord, in order to demonstrate their status and power.

However, no matter how they change, they are still demon beasts in essence, and the evil and cruelty that comes from the depths of their blood can never be changed."

There was a hint of solemnity and awe in Jin Yan's words. Obviously, he was also full of caution and vigilance towards the human forms of these demon soul beasts.

"What are you mumbling about there? I'm asking you a question! Where did you two little bastards come from and how did you get in here?" A demon soul beast in the middle had a burly figure and a very loud voice, like a huge bell, shaking the air around it slightly.

Its eyes were like two burning flames, revealing unquestionable majesty and anger.

Ling Xiao and Jin Yan looked at each other, both secretly on guard.

Facing this sudden question, Ling Xiao took a deep breath and tried his best to make his tone sound calm and sincere:
"You three should be demon soul beasts, right? We came here because of a demon soul beast named Ah Dai. Ah Dai had done us a favor, so we came here to fulfill his request. As for how we got in, it was of course because of the two guardian statues at the door. They seemed to have shown mercy to us."

Ling Xiao's explanation was modest and polite, his eyes were clear and sincere, trying to convey his kindness and innocence. After all, he was full of gratitude towards Ah Dai, and therefore had some good feelings towards the Demon Soul Beast Clan, and was unwilling to make enemies easily.

However, his explanation did not receive the expected response. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the face of one of the demon soul beasts suddenly became extremely gloomy, and a violent look flashed in his eyes.

It took a sudden step forward, its body like a moving mountain, bringing with it a strong pressure.

"Bullshit!" The demon soul beast roared, and the sound was as loud as thunder, causing pain in Ling Xiao and Jin Yan's eardrums. Then, it slapped them directly, with a sharp palm wind and a whistling gust of wind, as if it wanted to smash Ling Xiao into a pulp.

Ling Xiao frowned tightly, with a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes: "Shameless things, I was polite to you because of Ah Dai, do you really think that I, Ling Xiao, am afraid of you?"

His voice was low and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight, shaking the air around them.

Immediately, he also slapped out with his palm, and the wind from his palm whistled, carrying a force that should not be underestimated.

However, at the moment when this palm was about to touch the Demon Soul Beast, Ling Xiao's wrist trembled slightly, and the power in his palm was miraculously restrained a lot.

He thought to himself that although these three demon soul beasts were arrogant, their strength was far inferior to his. If he used all his strength to slap them, he would probably smash the three demon soul beasts into pulp, which was not the result he wanted.

After all, no matter what, these demon soul beasts are also a force of the Demon Sect. Although Ling Xiao is extremely dissatisfied with their attitude at the moment, he still can't bear to kill them directly. In his opinion, it is enough to teach them a lesson, and there is no need to make too much noise.

Boom! With a loud noise, Ling Xiao remained motionless, like a towering mountain, standing tall. However, the Demon Soul Beast was like a leaf blown up by a strong wind. It was blasted hundreds of meters away by Ling Xiao's palm and fell heavily to the ground.

It vomited blood, and curled up into a ball, looking extremely miserable. The air around it seemed to freeze, and all the demon soul beasts stared at this scene with wide eyes in disbelief.

They had never seen such a powerful opponent, and had never thought that Ling Xiao could severely injure the strongest among them without using his full strength.

The Demon Soul Beast looked at Ling Xiao with some shock. It didn't understand how the human in front of it, who was so young, could possess such terrifying strength.

"Good boy, you have some skills, but don't think that just because you can fight, you can come here and act wildly."

The demon soul beast forced itself to stand up and roared viciously.

It was obvious that it had not been defeated yet. Perhaps Ling Xiao was still too kind.
