C1414 Sky-swallowing Mouse(1)
On the ancient bronze path, Xu Feng found a new trace. This time, the trace was different from the one caused by the White Zombie. Instead, it looked more like a trace left behind after the battle.
"Could it be that there are other people on the ancient bronze path?"
Xu Feng looked around and muttered softly.
However, it was somewhat difficult for Xu Feng to find an unknown enemy on this ancient bronze path that was filled with stars. Perhaps, just like before, he had already stepped into another barrier when he discovered these unusual things.
Walking further, the damage on the ancient bronze path became more and more serious. There were even some broken stones scattered on the ground. One look and one could tell that they had experienced a great battle.
Upon seeing this scene, Xu Feng was shocked in his heart. One should know that the White Zombie had only left a tiny mark on the ancient bronze path. How strong would someone who could destroy the ancient bronze path to such an extent be?
He didn't dare to think about it. The more he thought about it, the more numb his scalp became. His back also felt a wave of coldness.
"Hmm?"
In front of him, a white thing attracted Xu Feng's attention. He quickly walked forward. It was a white skeleton with broken clothes beside it. It looked like it had been there for a long time.
The skeleton's sternum had been penetrated by someone. It was obviously a fatal attack. The attack was very fierce.
Xu Feng frowned when he saw this. Anyone who could reach this place must be an expert. However, even an expert would not be able to escape death.
Besides, after such a long period of time, that fellow's strength must be even greater. It was imaginable how powerful the enemy Xu Feng was going to face this time was.
"Hopefully, after such a long time, he's already dead..."
Xu Feng prayed silently in his heart, but he also knew that the possibility of this happening was almost zero.
As they continued forward, Xu Feng did not see any bones, but there were quite a lot of broken clothes. On the ground, there were some ancient words written with fresh blood. Unfortunately, it was too long ago, so Xu Feng did not recognize these blood words.
Although he didn't know what was written on it, Xu Feng had already sensed the danger, so he didn't dare to relax.
"Wu..."
After an hour, Xu Feng stopped because he felt that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit strange.
"Wu..."
As soon as he stopped, a long voice sounded from the void, directly striking people's hearts, "After so many years, finally someone came to the ancient path again..."
"Who are you?"
The Sky Breaking Spell in his body was circulating, ready to fight at any time. Xu Feng was looking around and shouting loudly.
"Swoosh!"
No one answered Xu Feng's question. The void that was filled with stars suddenly cracked open, and a dark light shot towards Xu Feng. Sensing the danger, Xu Feng casted the Ghost Shadow Step and retreated far away.
A fist-sized hole was left in the place where he was standing just now.
"Hiss..."
Xu Feng was secretly shocked. If he hadn't dodged the attack just now, his body would have been pierced through.
To Xu Feng, the white-haired zombie was already a powerful warrior that was difficult to deal with. He didn't expect that someone stronger than him would come. Furthermore... The Ancient Road of Bronze was long, and there would definitely be someone stronger in the future. It was still a little uncertain whether they would be able to return to Southern Ridge alive.
However, since Xu Feng had already stepped onto the ancient bronze path, he naturally wouldn't give up. He had already passed through such a difficult place, what was there to be afraid of?
Those who starved to death were timid, and those who were bold enough to die would die. Xu Feng was that bold man. No matter how dangerous it was, he had to give it a try.
"Why is his strength so weak? However, his reaction speed is pretty fast..."
The voice sounded again, full of dissatisfaction towards Xu Feng.
Although he was belittling Xu Feng, Xu Feng wasn't unhappy at all. Instead, he became even more nervous. The more he reacted, the more powerful he was.
"Shua!"
With a flash, an old man with a mustache and a black robe was floating on the ancient bronze path. He looked at Xu Feng with a malicious gaze. Obviously, he was the one who spoke just now.
No! He wasn't a human!
This old man was a Demonic Beast that had already taken form. Furthermore, he had basically erased all the characteristics of the Demonic Beast!
"Senior, I wonder if I can borrow a Dao from this place? I can't thank you enough!"
This old man did not seem like a kind person at first glance. However, before the other party had even made a move, Xu Feng still politely greeted him.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person with your hand. He hoped that the old man would understand this principle and sit down to have a good chat with Xu Feng.
It was a pity that his dreams were full, but reality was full of bones. The old man sneered and said slowly, "It's not impossible to borrow the Dao, as long as you can defeat me. Of course I can pass, but if you can't defeat me, then you can only become my food! "
"Roar!"
With that, the old man's head suddenly turned into a mouse's head. He opened his mouth and revealed his mouth full of fangs. After letting out a roar, he immediately returned to his human appearance.
"Sky-swallowing Rat!"
Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat. Based on his intuition, he was able to guess the old man's identity.
When he was in an ancient book, he saw that this Sky-swallowing Rat was similar to the Circled Growing Wood, it was born in the void of the universe.
However, this Sky-swallowing Rat was much more powerful. Before it grew, it fed on the chaos of the void. After its cultivation increased, it could open its mouth and swallow stars...
Initially, he thought that this was just a legend, but now, he actually encountered it.
"You know about me?"
The Sky-swallowing Rat saw Xu Feng's eyes and couldn't help but ask. Xu Feng, who was in a daze, seemed to have heard the call and nodded his head foolishly.
"That's right. You are the first person in so many years to know about me!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat smiled. His eyes were no longer as malicious as before. Obviously, being able to be known by others was something worth being happy about.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Feng hurriedly flattered, "Senior's great name is naturally known by everyone. In our continent, you are like a divine beast. Witnessing Senior's mighty manner just now has opened the eyes of the younger generation!"
"Kid, you sure know how to talk!"
Xu Feng's words made the Sky-swallowing Rat feel both physically and mentally happy.
Although this method of flattery was crude, for someone like the Sky-swallowing Rat who had faced the void for a long period of time and had never been praised before, it was the most enjoyable.
"How about this, since you respect me so much, I'll let you go..."
"Thank you, Senior!"
Xu Feng's heart was filled with excitement, and he hurriedly shouted out. However, he was frightened by the Sky-swallowing Rat's gaze, and he quickly shut his mouth.
"However, if you want to pass through this place peacefully, there must be a condition!"
After the Sky-swallowing Rat finished speaking, Xu Feng hurriedly asked. At this time, not to mention one condition, even if there were a hundred conditions, he wanted to agree. As long as the Sky-swallowing Rat was willing to let him pass, what was all of this considered?
"Three moves. As long as you can withstand three moves from me, I will let you go!"
Originally, Xu Feng thought that it was some kind of condition, but when he heard it, his face immediately darkened. Such a powerful opponent, not to mention three moves, even one move would not be able to withstand it.
It seemed that this Sky-swallowing Rat seemed to like Xu Feng's flattery on the surface, but in reality, it was not moved. It had been thinking about how to kill him in its heart.
"What's wrong? Not willing?"
The Sky-swallowing Rat asked back. Xu Feng waved his hand and smiled. "How can that be? Senior is so magnanimous, this junior will naturally be very grateful!"
Fists and feces were hard principles. If it was in the outside world, he could still run if he could not defeat the opponent. But now, it was related to his journey back to Southern Ridge, so he could only admit defeat for the time being.
"Those who achieve great things don't care about trifles. A true man knows when to yield and when to yield!"
Xu Feng tried to comfort himself. Otherwise, even he, himself, wouldn't be able to stand the current him, who was subservient and subservient to him.
"Kid, you're much more pleasing to the eye than those people who came before!"
Nodding his head in satisfaction, the Sky-swallowing Rat spoke slowly, and its attitude became much friendlier. Xu Feng also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
However, Xu Feng could also understand that even after so many years, the bones on the ancient bronze path still hadn't turned into ashes. Only the strong could do it.
Ordinary experts were proud and arrogant. When they saw the Sky-swallowing Rat, they wouldn't be able to recognize how powerful it was, so it wasn't strange for them to be killed.
Sometimes, being polite was still very important.
"Thank you for your praise, Senior!"
Xu Feng said in a low voice. He didn't care if the Sky-swallowing Rat heard him or not, he just had to pretend to be polite.
"It has begun!"
Without answering Xu Feng, the Sky-swallowing Rat closed its eyes. In the next moment, the stars above its head began to flow like flowing water, gathering in its hands.
Very quickly, the Sky-swallowing Rat was wrapped in starlight. The brilliant light made Xu Feng secretly admire the beauty of the void universe in his heart.
"You can't blame me if you die!"
Xu Feng, who was immersed in the starlight, was woken up by a sentence. He felt a chill in his heart. Finally, he realized that the star in front of him wasn't a scenery, but a sharp blade that wanted to take his life.
"Roar!"
Xu Feng did not dare to underestimate the attack of the Sky-swallowing Rat. His strength was definitely much greater than the strength of the white-furred zombie. He let out a furious roar, and the muscles all over Xu Feng's body began to swell.
"Hmm?"
Sensing the aura coming from Xu Feng's body, a trace of doubt flashed across the Sky-swallowing Rat's eyes. Soon, red fur grew out of Xu Feng's body, and his face gradually turned into a monkey.
Not long after, a red ape that was eight meters tall appeared in front of him. Its fist continuously pounded on the ancient bronze path, producing dull thuds.
"This kid... is actually a Demonic Beast?"
From the moment he saw Xu Feng, he had thought that Xu Feng was a human from the bottom of his heart. This was because he had never felt any demonic characteristics from Xu Feng. However, the situation in front of him had exceeded his expectations.
"Boom!"
The Sky Breaking Spell broke out of his body and hovered around his strong body. That overbearing aura caused the Sky-swallowing Rat to tremble. He was actually somewhat afraid of this power.
"Could it be... that he is the descendant of that person?"
The stars in his hand stopped flowing. The Sky-swallowing Rat stopped moving and looked at Xu Feng with a burning gaze. However, a huge storm was stirred in his heart.
