Chapter 600 Pursuit

“Hush!”

Li Yuanfeng and Su Ping were on their way back. All of a sudden, Li Yuanfeng signaled Su Ping to keep quiet. Su Ping understood the signal right away. He held his breath and submerged into the wall with Li Yuanfeng.

Boom_!

A beast full of power and grandeur had crawled over from a fork in the road, leaving behind a foul smelling scent; Su Ping felt he was getting dizzy.

He quickly held his breath again and used astral powers to force the toxins out of his body.

The beasts wobbled away. Li Yuanfeng and Su Ping waited for a while before they resumed their journey.

“I think those beasts are getting more active,” Li Yuanfeng pointed that out with a grave look on his face.

Most of the beasts had been asleep when they first got into the Corridor. But by also counting the beast they had just met, they had encountered over a dozen beasts on the move as they made their way back.

They found four of the beasts which had been asleep when they got there in the beginning; they currently were also moving about.

When it came to beasts, their time would be spent either on finding food or resting, mostly the latter.

That was it.

But the beasts could remain full for half a month or even longer after each time they hunted; it was strange that all the beasts would come out to find food all of a sudden.

“I think we must leave as soon as possible,” Su Ping said.

He also felt something was off. He could not say what, but it felt as if something were watching them.

The beasts that were roaming about seemed more violent than before. He felt uneasy.

“Sure.”

Li Yuanfeng nodded.

They pressed along, following the marks they had left on their way in. The Corridor had a complicated structure, like a massive spider web where anyone could get lost. However, they were able to find their way back thanks to the marks left by the Dark Dragon Hound.

“Wait a moment.”

Li Yuanfeng made a sudden stop.

He pressed his ear on the wall. Something seemed to have frightened him a few seconds later, because he began to shout, “Run!”

Su Ping was confused. But Li Yuanfeng had begun to teleport, not even bothering to maintain his disguise. Su Ping quickly realized that it had to be some grave danger and immediately followed.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two of them quickly teleported from one spot to another in the Corridor.

Sometime later, a dark swirl suddenly appeared in the air right in front of them.

Wings reached out from that swirl and following the wings was a gigantic beast which resembled a lion. The beast had four black wings and its height reached over a dozen meters, while its length was at about thirty meters. The beast carried an overwhelming energy.

“I see the two tiny things now.”

The beast with four wings looked down at Su Ping and Li Yuanfeng from a height, flashing a terrifying grin.

The beast’s upper body didn’t resemble a lion, but a human being. It had four arms and each held different weapons, including a rod, an ax, a sword, and a piece of iron chain.

“It’s a Void State beast!”

Li Yuanfeng was scared. His instinct told him that it wasn’t an average Void State beast king. He was even getting goosebumps; he wouldn’t have felt that way when he was fought regular beast kings of that rank. After all, he had been fighting in the Deep Caves for eight hundred years; he had killed a lot of them.

Su Ping narrowed his eyes. He was also able to notice this before Li Yuanfeng cautioned him.

He was familiar with beast kings of all states because he had met many.

“Let’s get this over with!” Su Ping whispered to Li Yuanfeng.

A swirl opened up and the Little Skeleton came out.

Li Yuanfeng nodded. He opened up swirls of his own to let out his beast king battle pets as well.

He had opened up 12 swirls in an instant.

The 12 beast kings stood on the path. That was the most powerful ensemble he had.

Whoosh!

A dragon covered with sharp spikes bellowed. Just like a ray of light, the dragon vanished as it went into Li Yuanfeng. He merged with his dragon.

The old warrior grew in strength instantly; he had gone far beyond the Void State immediately!

The other battle pets didn’t stay idle while he went through the merging. They started to unleash their skills. Colorful wisps of energy were poured into Li Yuanfeng. He became a warrior wearing elegant armor the moment he finished with the merging. He looked like a god who had descended from heaven!

“Go to hell!”

Li Yuanfeng snarled. He absorbed the energy that his battle pets shared with him and instantly reached the four-winged beast. Li Yuanfeng extended his arm, which had turned into a dragon’s limb.

Space was twisted. A black claw mark appeared in the air. Space was wrapped into a cube from which many iron chains were shot out, tying up the flying beast.

Bang!

Li Yuanfeng slapped the winged beast. There was a bang and the vicious beast slipped backward for hundreds of meters. Li Yuanfeng then heard that the iron chains were breaking before he could strike again. The four-winged beast uttered a long cry into the air.

The beast’s violent energy was soon spread all across the Corridor.

The beast was covered in dust but the red glow from its eyes was still visible.

“You puny Void State insect. This is not a place for you
