Chapter 1143: Breaking Through the Encirclement (Please Subscribe)_1

Feeling the Divine Power surging within and the heat in his heart, the Cloud Devouring Beast panted and said, "This lord has felt it—the overwhelming force!"

It could transform into any Monster Beast, so as long as it changed into one with terrifyingly strong defensive abilities, it could easily block these Demon Cultivators in front of it…

Just as it closed its Beautiful Eyes to engrave the soon-to-be-transformed Monster Beast in its mind, the Demon Cultivators raised their voices and sneered, "Hmph! At death's door and still babbling! If you willingly disable your Spiritual Power now and come with us to the Tian Yin Sect, you might spare yourself a death sentence!"

"Exactly! If so many of us Demon Cultivators make our move, your end won't be so simple!"

"The appearance of those two women truly sets one's heart ablaze; I really want to taste just how delightful they are!"

"We warn you, don't even think about running, because aside from us, there are many more Demon Cultivators chasing you! If they catch you, heh heh heh!"

These Demon Cultivators were not hurrying to act but attempted to intimidate Xu Sheng and the others into disabling their Spiritual Power themselves, since among them there were a mixed bunch whose Cultivation Levels were not solid, and those at the Saint Realm could be counted on one hand!!

If they engaged in battle, it was possible that some of the weaker Demon Cultivators might be affected. Not to mention a fight at the Saint Realm level!

Zhou Qingruo coldly scolded, "Disgusting, you Demon Cultivators will sooner or later be exterminated!"

Duanmu Lian ridiculed them disdainfully, "With the likes of you, do we even need to flee? Unless…"

But before she could finish, Xu Sheng grabbed her arm and comforted her with a smile, "Let's go, Lian, there's no need to fight here; these Demon Cultivators are unending."

The sheer number of Demon Cultivators in Central State—if wave after wave came, they could drain Duanmu Lian and Zhou Qingruo's Spiritual Power just by attrition!

Most importantly, even if they killed all of them, there would be no benefit!

Duanmu Lian glanced over the Demon Cultivators with a deadly gaze, "Consider yourselves lucky! If we meet again, I'll ensure your bodies are separated from your heads."

If it weren't for Xu Sheng's persuasion, she would have indeed been unable to resist slaughtering all of them!

Zhou Qingruo remained silent, merely sheathing her Personal Sword that had been giving off a chilling gleam…

The next moment, the three, Xu Sheng included, abruptly unleashed their Spiritual Power and started fleeing towards the back…

Seeing this scene, how could the Demon Cultivators be willing to give up? They shouted furiously, "Damn it! They're escaping! Chase them, quickly!"

"Don't let them get away no matter what, otherwise we'll miss the chance to join the Tian Yin Sect!"

"Respect the kind offer, or endure the punishment! Today, we'll not only slaughter that man but also have our way with those two women!!!"

After these words, everyone turned their weapons towards Xu Sheng and his companions, who were getting further away, wanting to pursue them…

After all, how valuable could this monster looking like a monkey be? They were even too lazy to kill it!

But could things really go that smoothly?

Of course not!

The Cloud Devouring Beast suddenly opened its eyes, which burst into a blood-red hue as it spoke with a bloodthirsty tone, "Your opponent is none other than this lord!"

"Roar!!!!"

Amidst that massive roar, the Divine Power that had been accumulating inside him burst forth. His small body began to grow exponentially within a few seconds…

Dimly visible, a gigantic black Monster Beast, as large as a Rhinoceros, materialized from thin air, with terrifying might emanating from its being…

The Cloud Devouring Beast glanced at the Demon Cultivators below and ferociously lifted its forelimb—a good dozen meters thick—and stomped down thunderously…

In an instant, the ground around them crumbled away under the strike, creating pits without any regularity; numerous demon cultivators with weaker cultivation levels were engulfed.

At the same time, the path that would allow the pursuers to catch up to Xu Sheng and the others was completely sealed off!!

The demon cultivators who regained their senses all turned their gazes towards the instigator, and once they saw clearly who it was, they were all taken aback...

One of the demon cultivators widened his eyes, exclaiming in shock, "What... What kind of monster beast is this? It has such terrifying attack power!! A single strike caused the entire ground to collapse!"

Another demon cultivator swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he said, "This monster beast's cultivation level has reached the Saint Realm, but we hadn't noticed it before! When did it appear!"

"It's just a monster beast! Everyone, act quickly! After we slaughter it, we'll go and kill those three people!!"

"That's right! Even if it's a monster beast of the Saint Realm, under the attack of so many demon cultivators, it will definitely be smashed to smithereens!"

After the words fell, many demon cultivators released their martial techniques, one round after another aimed at the Cloud Devouring Beast, which had transformed into this terrifying monster beast, and bombarded it...

The Cloud Devouring Beast didn't make any attempt to defend itself, allowing the attacks to hit its scales that covered its entire body.

After completely defending against these attacks and not receiving a single effective hit, the beast's ugly mouth curled with derision, scoffing, "You think these weak attacks can take down your lord? Dream on!!"

Having said that, it violently stomped on the ground again; the intense shock wave it released instantly killed several demon cultivators...

"Damn it, this cursed monster beast dares to mock us! Does it really think its defenses are invincible?"

"We have Saint Realm demon cultivators on our side, breaking its defense is a piece of cake! Right? My lords!"

"This monster is too terrifying, it's killing so many people with just the impact of its collision waves, I can't take this anymore! I'm not playing anymore!"

"Quick, run, run! Forget about the damn reward!!"

In the midst of these frantic exclamations, the situation became extremely chaotic...

...

Duanmu Lian's Beautiful Eyes glanced behind her, and upon noticing that no demon cultivators were following, she let out a sigh of relief, saying, "We've finally managed to shake off those demon cultivators!"

Then, with a puzzled face, she turned to Xu Sheng and asked, "That Cloud Devouring Beast is alright, isn't it? Among those demon cultivators, there were quite a few Saint Realm experts!"

Zhou Qingruo also cast a questioning look...

Although she felt no pity for the Cloud Devouring Beast, the fact that it was acting as their rearguard at least showed that its nature wasn't bad!

Xu Sheng chuckled lightly, "Don't worry. Unless it encounters demon cultivators who can join forces and use a formation, it will be fine!"

Just then, a demon cultivator suddenly appeared in front of them; as soon as he clearly saw Xu Sheng and the other two, he opened his mouth to shout loudly, "These people are over here...."

Xu Sheng's dark eyes turned cold, and his figure vanished in an instant...

When he reappeared, he was already in front of the demon cultivator, swiftly sweeping his two fingers across the latter's neck...

Following that, only a "puchi" sound was heard as the cultivator's neck was neatly severed, and his head rolled down, his widened eyes still seemingly unclear about how he had died!

Xu Sheng then glanced at the corpse and said indifferently, "Noisy!"
