The giant demon's two children's hollows were as deep as the endless void, but their gazes were fixed on the ancient old man Hei Ruiqing, who stood in mid-air with his hands behind his back.

Hei Ruiqing kept his eyes fixed on the enormous demonic giant and the blood-red battle-fire greatsword. He wanted to see what kind of skill this unknown expert, who had defeated his strongest demon general, possessed!

In the blink of an eye, the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword completed its transformation. As it slowly rose, pointing diagonally at the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword, it then slammed down fiercely. The demonic giant also transformed into the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword, throwing its fist at the black and sharp green dragon in the sky ahead!

Countless black wisps swirled around his massive fist, which was as large as a small mountain, and fiercely and ruthlessly followed the slash of the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword, striking towards Hei Ruiqing!

Chapter Forty-Eight: They've Been Caught Up

Boom!

The massive, sharp sword blade and the fist of the demonic giant struck the aged old man, Hei Ruiqing, together. Countless spaces shattered in front of him, and the powerful aura shook the surrounding area.

Seeing this powerful attack, Hei Ruiqing's heart tightened, and a terrifying aura that could shake the heavens and earth emanated from his body. He quickly formed hand seals, and the space in front of him collapsed, forming a dark void vortex.

"Before me, your strength is but a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

Hei Ruiqing smiled coldly, pushed his hands forward, and the dark void vortex rapidly expanded, becoming hundreds of feet in size. In one gulp, it swallowed the unstoppable sword edge of the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword and the fist of the Demon God Giant.

Rumble!

The Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword seemed to be trapped in a huge vortex swamp. Its fierce power was released, but it was like a mud ox entering the sea, completely swallowed up without any reaction.

Even the giant demon's fist, once inside that enormous dark vortex, was like hitting soft cotton, its brute force finding no outlet.

In an instant, Xiao Xuanyuan's Bloodthirsty God-Slaying Strike was actually neutralized by the dark void vortex conjured by the aged old man before him.

"Explode for me!"

Xiao Xuanyuan's face hardened, and in an instant he broke free from the sword core of the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword. Under his guidance, the massive Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword unleashed a terrifying power that shook the heavens and the earth, and continued to forcefully charge into the huge dark void vortex, and then began to self-destruct wildly!

Not only that, along with the self-destruction of the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword, the extremely large demon god giant also reached out and embraced the dark void vortex in front of him, and his body continued to explode with a rumble, engulfing Hei Ruiqing's ancient figure.

Rumble!

Bang bang bang!

Under this barrage of attacks, Hei Ruiqing's sinister face also showed a solemn expression. This Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword had condensed nearly 30% of Xiao Xuanyuan's terrifying power and was also equipped with purple-gold strange fire. It was used to unleash the Heaven-Rank Battle Skill Reverse Blood Godslayer, so the explosive damage was naturally unimaginable.

The massive explosion horrified the surrounding world, causing the sun and moon to lose their light, space to shatter, and countless void currents and hurricanes to rage forth. Even the blazing sunlight above was dimmed. The aftershocks spread across the land, annihilating countless lives. The towering mountains and peaks nearby were all blown to pieces, with rocks and vegetation flying everywhere.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xiao Xuanyuan endured the backlash from the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Giant Sword, suppressed the blood rushing to his throat, and used the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment movement technique to escape towards the distant horizon in the blink of an eye.

The ninth-tier magical beast, the Azure Blood King Eagle, was too powerful. He was gradually losing confidence. Moreover, he had fought a fierce battle with the eighth-tier peak magical beast, the Remnant Sun Demon Crying Eagle, and was not only severely injured, but also had very little strength left, less than 30% of his original strength.

So now, all we can do is run.

If you run too slowly, you'll definitely get caught and killed!

Even in his prime, Xiao Xuanyuan wasn't confident he could defeat the ninth-tier magical beast, the Azure Blood King Eagle. Now, with his strength greatly diminished, he had only one thought in his mind.

That means running as fast as you can and as far as you can go, ideally without that ninth-tier magical beast, the Azure Blood King Eagle, catching up, otherwise the situation will be very bad.

Thus, having broken free of the sword core of the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword, and after completely detonating the Battle Intent Heavenly Fire Greatsword, Xiao Xuanyuan turned around and used the life-saving Heavenly Rank movement technique, Golden Cicada Divine Concealment, increasing his speed to the maximum. He turned around and transformed into a golden streak of light, instantly running into the sky.

I wish my parents had two more legs so I could run even faster!

Rumble!

After a violent explosion, Hei Ruiqing was thrown out of the blast in a disheveled state. His gray robe was now tattered, his aged and gloomy face was covered in ash, and even his hands, which were as strong as an old tree, trembled slightly.

In the battle just now, although he managed to suppress the terrifying explosive force and crush it all into the dark void vortex, the power of the Heavenly Fire Sword's explosion was simply too strong. He was inevitably affected, not only looking disheveled but also suffering some minor injuries. He no longer possessed the calm and composed demeanor of a top-tier expert.

Hei Ruiqing's face was ashen as he stared at Xiao Xuanyuan's retreating figure, which was like a black dot about to disappear, his expression filled with gritted teeth.

"I never expected you to have such a way to escape. I underestimated you. However, you will not escape my grasp!"

Hei Ruiqing clenched his fist tightly, and in an instant it transformed into a gigantic, boundless Azure Blood King Eagle. It soared into the sky, and with a powerful flap of its giant wings, a gale arose, whipping up countless rocks and debris on the ground below, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere.

Looking again, its enormous form had vanished from its original spot and reappeared tens of thousands of feet away.

As the saying goes, the Kun transforms into the Peng, flapping its wings in the sky and soaring ninety thousand miles high. While the Azure Blood King Eagle before us is not quite as exaggerated, it still reaches a height of over ten thousand feet.

Sensing the massive figure approaching from behind, Xiao Xuanyuan's expression changed drastically. In addition to continuously consuming drugs, he recklessly activated the Heaven-rank movement technique of Golden Cicada Concealment, pushing this life-saving skill to the point of exhaustion.

His bones cracked and popped, a reaction to reaching the limit of his endurance. The metal meridians in his second dantian were burning red, and waves of intense pain kept coming from his body.

"Can you go any faster!"

Xiao Xuanyuan roared inwardly, his hands gripping a seventh-tier metal-type and a sixth-tier lightning-type energy core, frantically absorbing the metal-type energy to replenish the energy consumed in his second dantian.

With only a little over 30% of its power restored in its first dantian, where would it find enough fire battle qi to activate the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment, a Heaven-rank movement technique? The only option left is to absorb the energy from the demon core.

"Wow!"

Even though Xiao Xuanyuan was incredibly fast and had pushed the Golden Cicada Concealment technique to its limit, his body was already nearing its limit when that death-stricken cry still caught up and appeared behind him.

An extremely large shadow gradually approached, and in just two breaths, it finally touched Xiao Xuanyuan's fleeing figure. Xiao Xuanyuan's hair stood on end, and a shadow of death quietly rose in his heart.

Finally, the Azure Blood King Eagle let out another shriek, and its overwhelming shadow completely obscured the golden rainbow light that Xiao Xuanyuan had transformed into!

Chapter Forty-Nine: Procrastination

A strong aura of death swept over us!

With keen spiritual perception, Xiao Xuanyuan caught the aura of death descending from above. An extreme feeling filled his heart, and he could no longer care about fleeing for his life. He suddenly turned around and rolled like a lazy donkey in the air to the right.

Boom!

A streak of blood-red light pierced through countless spaces in an instant, blasting the space in front of Xiao Xuanyuan into pieces. That space was as fragile as paper before this streak of blood-red light, and was pulverized into dust.

Finally, it slammed into the earth, creating a huge, dark hole tens of thousands of feet deep and dozens of feet wide, which startled Xiao Xuanyuan, who had just narrowly escaped death, and sent chills down his spine.

Before he could even catch his breath, a thick smell of death continued to envelop him, stimulating every nerve in Xiao Xuanyuan's body. His blood rushed to his head, and without thinking, his body instinctively sprinted forward, unleashing the Heaven-rank movement technique, Golden Cicada Concealment, to its fullest extent.

His metal meridians were burning hot, emitting a burnt smell, and he was convulsing and twitching. This had completely exceeded the limits of this Heaven-Rank Movement Technique, and his metal meridians were showing signs of collapse and breakage.

Fortunately, he managed to dodge it, but a blood-red streak suddenly pierced through the spot where he had just been. Just like last time, countless spaces shattered, and a series of loud booms echoed across the earth, revealing a dark abyss thousands of feet deep.

Having been dodged twice by Xiao Xuanyuan, the enormous Cangming Blood King Eagle hovering above Xiao Xuanyuan's head showed a hint of surprise in its eyes. Just now, it had sprayed out two deadly blood-red beams of light from its beak, which was the inheritance it had obtained by awakening a trace of the ancient Kunpeng's ancestral bloodline.

It's called the Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique. It's not just a magical beast cultivation technique it uses, but also a killing skill. Relying on this move, countless high-level magical beasts have died at its hands as it grew stronger.

The core area once only had about ten peak eighth-tier magical beasts. In order to compete for the position of Demon King, the Frost Mirror Moon Rabbit Bai Yuewu defeated five or six peak eighth-tier magical beasts. After that, the four demonesses under her command were the ones who submitted to her.

However, the number of enemies defeated and killed by the Azure Blood King Eagle Hei Ruiqing far exceeded that of Bai Yuewu. In the early days, the four demonesses had already been defeated by Hei Ruiqing. Later, the remaining seven or eight peak eighth-order magical beasts, and even Bai Yuewu herself, were defeated by this guy. He even fought two peak eighth-order magical beasts with the strength of a single beast and defeated them using the Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique. In the end, the two peak eighth-order magical beasts refused to submit and were killed by Hei Ruiqing.

In any case, apart from the four demonesses who surrendered to Bai Yuewu, all the eighth-tier peak magical beasts who were unwilling to submit to him or wanted to join Bai Yuewu's camp were killed by Hei Ruiqing. In the end, only three of his demon generals were willing to acknowledge him as their master, which is why they were spared.

If Hei Ruiqing hadn't harbored feelings for Bai Yuewu, whose true form was the Frost Mirror Moon Rabbit, he probably would have already taken action and eliminated her. There wouldn't be any Primordial Continent or two top-tier magical beast forces!

However, as Bai Yuewu had already taken a half-step into the ninth-tier magical beast level, his restless mind calmed down a bit, and he temporarily had no intention of fighting Bai Yuewu to the death. However, the two of them often had conflicts and friction.

Recalling his proud Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique, which had slain many peak eighth-tier magical beasts of the same level without ever failing, a hint of pride flashed across the Black-Eyed Blue-Eyed Child's face, but he couldn't help but feel a touch of surprise. He was curious about what kind of supernatural power this unknown expert had used to dodge his attacks twice in a row!

"If you are willing to submit to me and hand over the supernatural powers inherited from your bloodline, I am willing to spare your lives!"

Curiosity stirred within him, Hei Ruiqing refrained from attacking again for a moment. Instead, his massive form loomed over Xiao Xuanyuan's head, preventing him from escaping his grasp.

Upon hearing the conditions of the Azure Blood King Eagle, Xiao Xuanyuan frowned deeply. Those two blood-red streaks were simply too fast and too powerful. If he had been even slightly slower, he would probably have been reduced to dust.

Having twice narrowly escaped death, Xiao Xuanyuan was still filled with lingering fear and trepidation! He didn't want to go through that again; he only had one life, and if he made a mistake, he would be finished.

Moreover, the Golden Cicada Concealment technique has now been used beyond its limits, and the aftereffects are constantly flaring up. The metal meridians in the body are convulsing and spasming terribly. If this happens a few more times, this Heaven-Rank movement technique will probably be ruined, and all the metal meridians will be completely severed due to the use beyond its limits.

Now that the ninth-tier magical beast, the Azure Blood King Eagle, has reached out to take his movement technique, he has a little time to process it. However, he is absolutely unwilling to make Xiao Xuanyuan submit to him and work for him.

Why not deliberately delay, allowing more strength to be recovered before delivering a fatal blow?

Gradually, Xiao Xuanyuan's thoughts became clearer.

"I am truly in awe of the Demon King's abilities and skills. I believe that if the Demon King really wants to kill me, I will definitely not be able to escape."

Xiao Xuanyuan showered the ninth-tier magical beast, the Azure Blood King Eagle, with compliments and praise, extolling its supernatural abilities.

"Of course, on this vast and boundless primordial continent, apart from that woman Bai Yuewu who has some skill, there is not a single magical beast that can rival me. Countless peak eighth-tier magical beasts have died at my hands at the hands of others of the same tier."

When the Azure Blood King Eagle spoke of his past, a look of reminiscence appeared in his huge eyes. "If I count, I think I killed five or six peak eighth-tier magical beasts back then."

"Then what supernatural power did the Demon King just use?"

Xiao Xuanyuan was also curious, and with the aim of continuing to stall for time, he chatted casually. Of course, this was still during his escape using the Golden Cicada Divine Concealment technique. He was really afraid that if he stopped, this ninth-order magical beast would immediately change its mind and kill him.

"The bloodline of the ancient Kunpeng divine beast resides within me. This is the inheritance of bloodline awakening, called the Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique. Many peak eighth-tier magical beasts of the same level died because of this divine power. I ask you, how could you dodge my Netherworld Blood Rainbow Technique twice? What kind of divine power and movement technique did you use?"

Chapter Fifty: Recovering Half of His Strength

"He has recovered nearly 10% of his strength!"

Xiao Xuanyuan was secretly delighted. During this time of delay, he secretly swallowed a few more high-grade sixth-rank pills, accelerated the circulation of the Burning Technique, absorbed the immense medicinal power, and restored the fire battle qi in his body.

After battling Shadow Xiao Xuanyuan on the sixth floor of the Divine Medicine Pavilion, consuming countless pills, and then rushing across the Primordial Continent for several days, as well as fighting a great battle against the eighth-tier peak demonic beast, Remnant Sun Demon Li Diao, he was finally chased and killed by the ninth-tier demon king, Azure Nether Blood King Eagle.

Xiao Xuanyuan's storage rings, which originally contained a rich collection of high-grade sixth-rank pills, have been gradually emptied. After this batch, all that's left are fifth-rank and lower-rank pills.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuanyuan frowned even more deeply. If he couldn't escape from this ninth-tier demon king, he was probably really going to die this time. He couldn't help but feel a sense of racing against death!

"To be honest, what I cultivate is a Heaven-rank movement technique called Golden Cicada Concealment. However, this movement technique is extremely difficult to cultivate and is probably not suitable for Your Majesty, Demon King."

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Xuanyuan told the truth.

"Then bring them here for me to see."

The Azure Blood King Eagle continued to open its mouth and speak in human language. Although it didn't understand what movement techniques and combat skills were, it didn't hinder its cultivation. As long as it could cultivate, it didn't care about the Heavenly or Earthly ranks. That was its thought.

"This"

Xiao Xuanyuan hesitated for a moment, but the Azure Blood King Eagle above his head did not give him a chance to refute. A vast and boundless demonic aura pressed down on Xiao Xuanyuan.

"Hmph, no magical beast has ever dared to refuse what I want!"

Feeling the pressure emanating from a powerful figure akin to a Dou Sheng, Xiao Xuanyuan desperately circulated his internal fire Dou Qi, struggling to resist. He unconsciously swallowed, but said, "Give it to me, right away!"

"Give it to me!"

The Ninth-Order Demon King, Cangming Blood King Eagle, let out another cold shout.
