Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

The expert from Jiang Family shouted a few times, and after summoning a few people, he rushed towards the Colossal Ox King.    

    

However, just as they got close to the Ox King, it also saw them. It suddenly let out a desolate moo, and with a turn of its massive body and a swing of its long tail, the sword energy that was slashing towards it shattered into pieces.    

    

Rumbling sounds echoed out as the enormous bull galloped across the land, causing the entire valley to shake.    

    

The two warriors who were facing the direction it was heading towards quickly dodged. One of them was half a beat too slow, and half of his body was struck, causing him to immediately spit out blood and fall to the ground, his bones breaking as he let out a miserable groan.    

    

At this time, the two Royal Guards moved and rushed towards the injured warrior.    

    

The old man from the Jiang Family jumped up, the Spiritual Dipper circulated, using the Qi Manipulation Technique's ability, he chased up and slashed down.    

    

This saber strike was incomparably sharp, like a bolt of lightning streaking through the darkness before dawn; it was blinding without being seen.    

    

The saber aura had been refined to the extreme. Even though it was just a peek from afar, he felt his entire body turn cold, and was unable to block it.    

    

Chen Yu's eyes were burning with bloodlust. He secretly sighed that the experts of the aristocratic families were indeed extraordinary. Their strength was far beyond that of the warriors of the small families.    

    

With just the battle prowess of this old man, Chen Yu felt that he could be compared to Lin Xiaolang. The only thing that was inferior to Lin Xiaolang was perhaps the lack of a Divine Artifact.    

    

However, the blade intent struck the back of the Ox King like lightning, chopping off strands of its long hair. The Ox King, on the other hand, sunk into the ground, rolled once before it continued to run away. There was a long knife scar on its surface. In addition, the hair on its blade had been cut off, making it look ugly.    

    

After a single slash, the Giant Ox had already flown far away when the Jiang Family expert landed on the ground, but was unable to catch up.    

    

"This defensive power is too strong!" Lei Xiaoshan muttered.    

    

"If it runs, we won't be able to keep it even if we chase it!" Jiang Yuyang also frowned, "Sis, should we chase after them?"    

    

"We have to chase him, but there's no need to rush too much!" Jiang Yuzhen looked up at the endless canyon and said, "The next time we meet a monster like the Single Horned Giant Bull King, we have to surround it first!"    

    

The defense of the cow-type spirit beasts was stronger than that of other types of spirit beasts. Jiang Yuzhen didn't expect this to happen. Otherwise, the Ox King wouldn't have been given the chance to escape.    

    

"Look!" Chen Yu's eyes were flashing with bloodlust. At this moment, he saw that the Colossal Ox King had coincidentally charged towards the second location of the battle.    

    

At that place, more than ten warriors were besieging a third stage Saber-Toothed Tiger Ni, heavily injuring it. However, as the Great Ox King rushed forward, those martial artists were caught off guard and were sent flying.    

    

The Saber-Toothed Tiger Ni-Lions seized the opportunity to break free and flee in all directions.    

    

The two spirit beasts didn't clash with each other and split apart, running madly into the depths of the canyon.    

    

Hearing Chen Yu's reminder, everyone raised their heads and looked. However, they only saw that the two spirit beasts had escaped into the distance.    

    

"Let's go!" Jiang Yuzhen let out a low cry before leaping into the air and flying away.    

    

Everyone rushed over.    

    

Chen Yu did not move. Blood flashed in his eyes as he looked in the direction the Troll King ran in.    

    

In just ten seconds, Chen Yu had already determined that the giant bull king was heading towards another group of warriors that were fighting and surrounding them.    

    

Chen Yu's expression turned strange.    

    

No matter how you looked at it, the Ox King seemed to have gone out of his way to help the surrounding spirit beasts.    

    

"Mr Meng, what did you see?" A voice that sounded like a male duck's voice rang in Chen Yu's ears.    

    

Chen Yu turned around and saw Lei Xiaodao staring at him.    

    

Putting away the blood in his eyes, Chen Yu said, "Can't you see for yourself, Brother Lei?"    

    

"I can't see clearly!" Lei Xiaodao said, "I'm not like Mr Meng, who has an eye technique. I have already tried my best to overestimate you, but I didn't expect you to actually possess an eye technique or divine ability, you truly are an unprecedented genius! "    

    

Seeing his eye technique was discovered by Lei Xiaodao, Chen Yu did not mind and said, "Brother Lei, you flatter me." I saw that the route the huge bull took was filled with spirit beasts that had been attacked. Do you think this is a coincidence or something? "    

    

"What a coincidence! That giant bull fled in panic. It can't tell the direction!" Lei Xiaodao said.    

    

Chen Yu, on the other hand, did not feel the same way. The Ox King could only point out the direction in two or three times in a row, so he could not afford to ignore it.    

    

Chen Yu didn't interact much with spirit beasts, but he did interact a lot with Vicious Beast and Demonic Beast. With his current cultivation, Demonic Beast s were not even enough for him to kill with a single punch. But when he was still weak, he had personally experienced some of the Demonic Beast's craftiness.    

    

Especially the Black Scale Fox that changed Chen Yu's fate in the beginning, it could be said that Chen Yu was unable to forget it.    

    

The Black Scale Fox, on the other hand, was only a stage seven Demonic Beast. At that time, it already cunningly knew that it was waiting at the entrance of the cave.    

    

Furthermore, spirit beasts were at a much higher level than Demonic Beast, so their intelligence was not inferior to humans.    

    

"Let's go over and take a look!" Chen Yu called out and used his movement technique to rush forward.    

    

Lei Xiaodao quickly followed.    

    

After running for a few miles, Chen Yu looked out and saw that in a short period of time, all of the spirit beasts on the open ground had escaped along the canyon, with the exception of one that had been killed. The warriors who had been chased away by their prey were obviously not willing to give up. Most of them were crazily chasing after them, and many of them were flying in the air, hoping to catch up with the others before they could catch up with them.    

    

On the other hand, Jiang Yuzhen and the others suddenly slowed down after chasing for a while.    

    

Very quickly, Chen Yu and his group caught up to the Jiang Family practitioners.    

    

"Let's keep our distance!" Jiang Yuzhen didn't suspect that the Spiritual Beasts had intentionally lured Human Martial Cultivator into the depths of Eagle's Mouth Gorge. Instead, he instinctively maintained his vigilance and said, "It's not easy to kill Spiritual Beasts. Furthermore, there are three Rank 6 Spiritual Beasts within the depths of Eagle's Mouth Gorge!"    

    

Lei Xiaodao said, "Mr Meng thinks that those spirit beasts may be luring humans into the canyon on purpose!"    

    

"How is this possible?" Jiang Yuyang was surprised. "Why would Mr Meng think that?"    

    

"That's right. If these spirit beasts had such wisdom, would they have been captured alive by the imperial guards?" One of the Jiang Family warriors sneered: "Chairman Meng is exaggerating too much!"    

    

An expert from Lei Family said: "Spirit beasts are indeed very strong, but to say that they deliberately set a trap to lure Human Martial Cultivator in is a little too absurd. It is true that Chairman Meng is cautious and prudent, but he is still a joke if he exaggerates too much! "    

    

"Hehe, Chairman Meng came from the Wilderness, maybe he suffered from the Vicious Beast of the Wilderness before!" Another one sneered.    

    

Because of Chen Yu's performance in the Martial Competition in front of the palace and his relationship with Imperial Envoy and Gongyang Wu, the Jiang and Lei Families' experts were seemingly quite courteous. But only on the surface, in words and on the surface, this view of Chen Yu scoffed.    

    

"Meng Yang, why do you think that?" At this time, Jiang Yuzhen interrupted the others' questions with disdain. He looked at Chen Yu and asked, "The intelligence of the Spirit Beasts aren't low, but these Spirit Beasts are not of the same race. It's impossible for a unified order to appear, right?"    

    

Chen Yu was also suspicious of this point, but he did not doubt the intelligence of the spirit beasts.    

    

"Maybe it's just an illusion!" Chen Yu didn't want to argue with these people as he said lightly.    

    

Jiang Yuzhen looked at Chen Yu for a while and said, "Meng Yang, if you have something to say, just say it!"    

    

Chen Yu shook his head, not wanting to waste any more words. In any case, with the Blood King Bow, he had the confidence to fight his way out even if he were to be caught in the beast tide: "It should only be a coincidence!"    

    

"Alright, then let's continue going deeper!" Jiang Yuzhen said.    

    

Everyone continued to move forward, but Jiang Yuzhen deliberately slowed down his pace. He fell behind Chen Yu and said, "Meng Yang, do you really think that this could be a trap?"    

    

"I just think so!" Chen Yu glanced at Jiang Yuzhen and was a little surprised by Jiang Yuzhen's persistence on this topic.    

    

"Tell me the reason!" Jiang Yuzhen said, "Actually, I feel uneasy too. The spirit beasts' behavior just now was indeed a little strange. They all escaped like a swarm of bees, as if they received some kind of instruction!"    

    

"There's no clear reason. I only know that the intelligence of a spirit beast isn't low!" Chen Yu said, "It's not wrong to prepare carefully!"    

    

"En!"    

    

Along the way, under Jiang Yuzhen's intentional control, the crowd had distanced themselves from the warriors who were chasing after the Spiritual Beasts.    

    

It was already dawn. There was only one more day left before the end of the hunt.    

    

Just as he was moving forward, a stream of light suddenly flashed by in the air as numerous silhouettes flew towards the depths of the gorge.    

    

"It's from Shangguan family!"    

    

The Shangguan family's experts left quickly.    

    

"Profound Dark Stage Warriors can fly, while Spirit Beasts can't do anything to them!" Jiang Yuzhen said.    

    

"That's right!" Chen Yu frowned.    

    

Chen Yu could not give a reasonable explanation for why the Spirit Beasts set this trap. However, for a long time, he had always believed in his perception of danger. This perception had already saved his life many times.    

    

After the warriors from the Shangguan family left, not long after, someone else came out from the ravine. Chen Yu was very familiar with the leader, but who else could it be other than Third Prince?    

    

Third Prince didn't pay attention to Chen Yu, who was walking in the canyon. He lowered his head to take a look and then quickly rushed over. It was obvious that he was eager to kill the highest ranked spirit beasts for a good result.    

    

The Hunt was undoubtedly a form of competition against the royal princes. The better the result, the better it would be for the Duke of Qin. It would be beneficial for the fight for the throne in the future.    

    

After that, there were countless other experts of the late stage and peak of the Profound Dark Stage who were flying through the air, heading towards the deepest part of the canyon.    

    

The experts of Jiang Family and Lei Family were a little unable to restrain themselves. They also wanted to increase their speed or fly into the sky, but they were suppressed by Jiang Yuzhen and Lei Xiaodao.    

    

As they continued forward, they would occasionally see the corpses of spirit beasts. However, not all the spirit beasts escaped under Human Martial Cultivator's pursuit. Some of them were even killed after being caught up to take away the Demon Crystal.    

    

"Roar ~ ~"    

    

"Roar! Roar!"    

    

Just as the Jiang Family and Lei Family of the practitioners were becoming more and more unable to restrain themselves, from the depths of the canyon, suddenly came the simultaneous roars of tens of thousands of beasts. Every single sound contained an endless savagery and brutality, and after they gathered together, the sound shook the heavens and shook the earth.    

    

At this moment, the Northern Mang Mountain seemed to be trembling, and the steep slopes on both sides of the canyon began to rustle as rocks and dirt began to fall.    

    

The group of people's faces changed at the same time.
