Lingyun was about to head towards the Setting Sun Demon Ridge.
Suddenly, from the deepest part of the Demon Mountain Range of the Setting Sun, an earth-shaking explosion could be heard. Ripples swept across the entire Demon Mountain Range like gigantic waves.
"What happened!"
Ling Yun was shocked, and quickly looked towards that direction.
A huge mushroom cloud rose from the horizon as destructive power wreaked havoc, spreading to a radius of tens of miles. The entire ancient tree toppled over one after another, countless creatures, including a large number of top tier Vicious Beasts and even Earth-rank demons, were engulfed by the destructive power.
"What level of creature is this fighting at?" Just like the might of the heavens! "
Ling Yun's face paled. That kind of scene was too terrifying, it was as though the sky was being destroyed, and the explosion swept up tens of thousands of metres of sky, dispersing layers of dark clouds.
Although they were separated by several hundred miles, the fluctuations that came from such a distance still caused one's heart to palpitate.
"What is that!"
Ling Yun jumped up onto the treetop. Suddenly, his pupils shrank. In that direction, there were several colossal creatures moving like an ancient demon mountain.
Surrounding these giant creatures were a few long arcs flying around them at an extremely fast speed. They were impressively a group of human experts.
"Their bodies are comparable to mountains, possessing boundless power. Could these few creatures be the legendary Sky Demons? "Too powerful. In front of them, I'm just an ant right now …"
"Those human experts are actually able to contend against the Heavenly Demon. They should at least be Heavenly Yuan Stage experts …" "If an existence of this level was to make a move, how precious would the item that they are fighting for be …"
Seeing this scene, Ling Yun's chest violently heaved.
Suddenly, from the end of the horizon, a majestic voice resounded like thunder.
The several mountainous Sky Demons spoke up.
"Damn Huo Zhen, you've severely injured our demon clan. Do you still want to retrieve his treasure …?"
Soon after, there was another earth-shattering explosion. The earth had fallen and the void had been pierced through. The black fissure was like the scar of the earth, spreading for tens of miles.
"Damn it!" "Stop him …"
The Sky Demons were furious, something extremely important must have been snatched away.
If someone were to overlook the ground from above, they would notice that with that place as the center, countless human experts began to evacuate in all directions.
Even the weakest of these experts was at the Earth Origin Stage!
In the sky, the Heavenly Yuan Stage experts also began to retreat while the furious Heavenly Demons took human form and chased after them.
"..."
"This won't do, I have to hurry back and inform Ling Susu and the others. The Setting Sun Demon Ridge can't stay any longer. The furious Sky Demon will kill all the humans in the Demon Mountain!"
Lingyun did not dare to delay any longer. With a light leap, he landed on the ground and ran towards the ancient building.
"..."
After half a day, just as Lingyun was about to reach the periphery of the Demon Mountain Range of the Setting Sun, a human figure passed through layers of dense forest like a falling meteorite, and landed not far in front of Lingyun.
"Cough cough!"
A middle-aged man in black crawled out of the pit while clutching his chest, blood still flowing from his mouth.
"Young man, do me a favor!" Give this to the Huo Family! "
The middle-aged man who was heavily injured immediately noticed Ling Yun.
Trembling, he reached out his hand towards Ling Yun. Opening his tightly held palm, a palm sized jade quietly rested within.
The piece of jade was shaped like a yin yang fish. The yang fish were white, the yin fish were black, and in the middle was a "S" shaped split line.
The entire piece of jade resembled a taiji diagram.
"This is the remains of the Venerable Lord Huo Zhen, the Yin Yang Fish Talisman."
"Who are you? And why should you believe me? " Lingyun did not dare to act rashly. After all, he did not know where this person came from. He could not tell if this Yin Yang Fish Talisman was a blessing or a curse.
"Someone is chasing after me. I can't escape. I have no choice but to believe in you!"
"If Young Hero can pass this jade to the Huo Family members of Royal City, I will have no regrets even if I die!"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll keep the treasure for myself?" Ling Yun said.
The middle-aged man named Huo Zhong laughed miserably, "I am already at the end of my road. Even if you were to take the treasures away, it would be better than falling into the enemy's hands! Take your things and go! "
Huo Zhong threw the Yin Yang Fish Talisman at Lingyun.
Lingyun did not have any time to think, as he caught the Yin Yang Fish Talisman in his hand.
"Go!" Run! Get out of here! " Huo Zhong shouted anxiously.
"Heh heh, Huo Zhong, the treasures are in your hands. You Huo Family scoundrels must be trying to hide it from the world, you want to leave!? "No way!"
A cold voice that sounded like a poisonous snake came from the depths of the forest.
When the voice fell, a powerful expert with a terrifying aura had already landed in front of Ling Yun and Huo Zhong like a cannonball.
This person's age was about the same as Huo Zhong, but compared to Huo Zhong's loyalty and fearlessness, this person's expression was soft and ruthless. He was obviously not a good person.
"Oh no, an Earth Origin Stage cultivator!" Feeling the terrifying aura coming from this person, Ling Yun cursed in his heart. This person was much stronger than Patriarch Ling Xingye.
The moment he saw this person, Huo Zhong couldn't help but grind his teeth and say, "Wu Hanshan!"
"Youngster, you hurry up and go, I'll hold him back!" This thing will be up to you! "
Huo Zhong's face was filled with the tragic expression of one facing death. He had long since been mentally prepared that he would not walk out of the Demon Mountain Range of the Setting Sun. As long as this youth could bring out the Yin Yang Fish Talisman, he would die without any regrets.
"Hehe, you want to leave? Are you dreaming? None of you are leaving today! "You're already at the end of your tether and aren't a match for me at all. But that kid is just an ant in the Mortal Origin Stage. I can crush him with my little finger. Tell me, do you guys still have any chance of survival?"
The Earth Origin Stage cultivator called Wu Hanshan looked at Ling Yun and Huo Zhong with disdain.
Ling Yun was not scared. With a serious face, he quickly thought about it and weighed it in his mind.
If Huo Zhong could stall Wu Hanshan, that would be for the best. Lingyun would definitely choose to leave.
However, looking at the situation now, Huo Zhong could not hold Wu Hanshan back for too long. Once Wu Hanshan was free, then being hunted by an Earth Origin Stage cultivator, the odds were against Lingyun.
It was impossible for him to fight against an Earth Origin Stage cultivator with his strength. However, he still had a lot of ways to threaten them. If he worked well with Huo Zhong, he might have a chance to kill Wu Hanshan.
"Then let's go all out!" Lingyun's expression did not change, but he had already made his decision.
"We'll have to fight to find out if there's any hope. Young man, hurry up and leave!" Huo Zhong was still urging Ling Yun because, in his opinion, Ling Yun was too weak and could not help him at all.
Huo Zhong was right. After all, the gap between the Mortal Origin Stage and the Earth Origin Stage was like a natural chasm. Moreover, it seemed like Lingyun had only just entered the ninth level of the Mortal Origin Stage.
