Chapter 126 - 123 Still, You Guys Go Out (4/4)
Zhou Heng sped off with all his might, his Swift Cloud Radiant Step was not pushed to its extreme yet, for he intended to blow away those three Land Cleaving Realm monsters. His confidence stemmed from the Four Yuan Returning Fiend Banner he had refined again, which, although only three were left, were just enough to deal with each one of the monsters.
However, he still did not know just how powerful the Four Yuan Returning Fiend Banner truly was. If it could severely injure the Dark Skin Monster with a single strike, he could follow up with a sword blow to finish it off. But if it only resulted in a slight injury, he would have wasted these three treasures.
After some thought, Zhou Heng decided not to take such a risk. The defense of these Dark Skin Monsters was infuriatingly strong. The Four Yuan Returning Fiend Banner might not be able to inflict a heavy blow as, after all, it was only a treasure that an Open Heaven Realm Expert had bestowed upon Zhang Zaiyun to suppress those at the Initial Separation Realm. It was quite a stretch to use it against Land Cleaving Realm Demon Beasts.
Given the situation, he chose to run!
Zhou Heng suddenly exerted more force, and the might of the Swift Cloud Radiant Step increased again. His figure truly became as fast as lightning, and, after just a few leaps, he had left the three Dark Skin Monsters far behind.
He slowed down, preparing to find a way to leave, but a pounding sound came from behind, and those three Dark Skin Monsters were actually still in pursuit!
Damn, these monsters have noses that are too keen!
Zhou Heng once again performed the Swift Cloud Radiant Step, sprinting forward. After three or four minutes, he saw several bodies of Dark Skin Monsters lying on the ground, clearly wounded by sharp blades rather than bitten or clawed to death.
He was initially startled, then realized that these must be the Dark Skin Monsters that had been chasing Nangong Yuerong and the others. They must have encountered a battle along the way and had been killed by them. Indeed, with their sensitive noses, even if they lost sight of their targets, they could track them by scent, a truly pesky ability, and the only solution was to kill them.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh. He moved as swiftly as flight, yet he didn’t dare to push the Swift Cloud Radiant Step to the limit any longer as it was too taxing. He maintained a speed just enough not to fall behind the Dark Skin Monsters, all the while observing the terrain to find a way to escape.
