Chapter 988 Brutal Rabbit~
Squeak!?
Having felt the dozens of terrifying auras no weaker than itself that suddenly appeared, the rabbit demon beast who had hidden away inside of the hidden pocket in his robe, poked its head out as it looked back towards the dozens of crystal fish emerging from the water as they dived into the rocky ground like it was the same as the water in the lake behind them.
Although slower than in the water, they did not lack speed when compared to the current Xuan Hao who couldn't use his movement technique.
However, compared to Xuan Hao, the crystal fish had one very clear advantage over him... And that was the fact that the qi left inside of Xuan Hao's dantian was far too low for him to continue escaping like this over an extended period of time with the spatial anomaly still present.
The only real chance he had to escape from the crystal fish who seemed bent on catching up to him, was to get out of the area covered by the spatial anomaly and start using his movement technique again. If he could do that, there would be no way for the colossal crystal fish to catch up with him. On the other hand, they would have to worry about him, as he would be able to easily attack them without them being able to do anything about it. NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
Squeak...?
Not understanding any of this, the rabbit demon beast calmed down after realizing that the crystal fish weren't able to catch them and instead began to curiously observe the strange almost completely transparent fish chasing after them.
Squeak...
After observing the approaching crystal fish, the rabbit demon beast could not stop its mouth from watering when it noticed a particular large shiny thing inside the body of the first colossal crystal fish to appear and also the one Xuan Hao had knocked away before escaping to the mountain range.
For some reason, in the eyes of the rabbit demon beast, the large shiny thing inside the body of the colossal crystal fish closest to them, seemed awfully a lot like one of the spirit stones that Xuan Hao had given to it in the past.
SQUEAK!
Not able to control itself when faced with such a large meal waiting to be eaten, the rabbit demon beast jumped out of Xuan Hao's robe before the latter had any time to react and flew towards the colossal crystal fish in the Third Tribulation of the Soul Ascension realm just behind them-
Ptsh!
And before the crystal fish had any time to notice the existence of the small rabbit demon beast whose cultivation base was rather hard to spot due to it having done its best to hide it, a loud sound of something sharp cutting through flesh echoed out, as the small rabbit demon beast easily pierced through the crystal fish's skin and entered its body.
R-Roar!?
Swish!
No matter what it was, Xuan Hao decided to store it inside one of his interspatial rings for now-
Squeak!?
Much to the dismay of the rabbit demon beast who had been planning to eat the strange object after safely returning to the hidden pocket inside Xuan Hao's robe. Only able to complain for a short moment before being stuffed inside Xuan Hao's sleeve.
Swish!
Over the next few seconds, Xuan Hao did his best to avoid the long distance of the crystal fish chasing after him, as he finally managed to reach the peak of the first mountain of the mountain range.
"Huh!? This... the fog covered mountain range!?"
However, after reaching the peak of the first mountain, he discovered that he was still inside the fog covered mountain range with the massive forest that he had found himself trapped inside of before entering the Third Celestial Gate.
To be more precise, he was located in the opposite direction of where he had first entered the fog covered mountain range, with the massive forest filled with Peak Soul Ascension Realm demon beast now directly in front of him, or what remained of the massive forest after the terrifying clash between the cloud demon beast and the guardian formation of the mystic realm came to an end.
In the end, it looked like only a small part of the once massive forest had managed to survive, with a few of the mountain peaks having directly melted into molten rock that now filled up a large part of the burnt down forest. No signs of the Peak Soul Ascension Realm demon beast or the cloud demon beast was present in the eerily quiet path of forest still left directly below him.
ROOOAR!
Hearing the loud roars of the crystal fish behind him, Xuan Hao didn't bother to think too much about what had ended up happening to the Peak Soul Ascension Realm demon beasts or the cloud demon beast, as he rapidly descended down towards the small part of the forest that had been left intact. Hoping that he would be able to escape that range of the spatial anomaly after reaching the forest, as he had never felt any kind of spatial anomaly preventing him from using his movement technique inside the massive forest.
Even if the formation surrounding the forest itself kept him from escaping, it didn't restrict his use of the Dao of Space inside of the formation itself. Not to mention, Xuan Hao doubted that the formation had managed to survive the clash between the guardian formation and the cloud demon beast, as the formation would have been standing in the way of the guardian formation and prevented its attack from easily reaching the cloud demon beast.
Although he felt like this should be the case, he had no way to be sure and had to risk possibly ending up trapped inside the formation again to be able to properly use his movement technique again.
In the worst case scenario, he would always be able to try and find the celestial gates again and use them to hide inside of until the crystal fish left.
