In the eerie mountain range, Fang Chen explored carefully. The deeper he went, the more he could feel the lingering resentment in the Void, wailing in the wind.
They seemed to be recounting their past.
However, what surprised Fang Chen the most was that the Divine Beast Bloodline in his body was acting strangely.
Weng!
The Black Tortoise Bloodline circulated automatically, forming a layer of Black Tortoise Armor on the surface of his skin, protecting Fang Chen's physical body. The Vermillion Bird Bloodline was also flowing. The two Divine Beast Bloodlines intertwined and vibrated continuously, as though they were guiding Fang Chen forward.
"What exactly is it? Why can it cause the two Divine Beast Bloodlines to act strangely at the same time?"
Fang Chen frowned as he pondered. He sensed carefully and followed the guidance of the two Divine Beast Bloodlines.
Soon, Fang Chen came to the deepest part of the eerie mountain range.
Crash!
Suddenly, he felt a flash of black light in front of him. He looked around but saw nothing.
"Am I seeing things?"
Fang Chen thought quickly. There was a flash of black light, but the surroundings were dead silent. There was nothing.
"Did you discover something?" Princess Huang asked.
"There seems to be something around us."
Fang Chen took out the Sky-crushing Sword and the ultimate power in his body vibrated. With his feet as the center, the ultimate power continued to spread, forming a small Sword Territory around him.
Weng!
Indeed, the moment the Sword Territory was formed, the black light flashed again. However, in the next second, the black light fell into the Sword Territory and struggled desperately.
"Hmm?"
Fang Chen opened his eyes wide and looked ahead.
In the Sword Territory, a huge black demonic beast let out an angry roar.
"This is … Demon Shadow?"
Princess Phoenix's expression changed greatly. She had once followed her master and roamed the world. She had also read many ancient books. Those ancient books recorded some secrets of the Primal Chaos.
Among them, there were records about the core of the Death Cliff.
The ancient books mentioned that there was a terrifying demonic tribe in the core of the Death Cliff. They were called Demon Shadows. They could change their appearance and body shape at will.
The only thing that didn't change was the black fur all over his body.
Demon Shadow was the collective name given to this group of demons because they were as fast as the wind. They flew in the void without leaving a trace. Even a Sage of the Pinnacle could barely see their phantoms and could not really capture their tracks.
One could imagine how powerful Yao Ying was.
Roar!
The Demon Shadow was restricted by the Sword Domain. Its speed was reduced, and it was struggling.
Boom! Boom!
Demon Shadow began to bombard the Sword Domain. Fang Chen's Ultimate Power continued to surge out, supporting the Sword Domain.
Fang Chen wielded the Heaven-Destroying Sword and manipulated the Sword Territory to close in on the Demon Shadow.
Princess Phoenix reminded, "Yao Ying is very strong. He is most proficient in the Dao of Space."
"I know what I'm doing."
After Demon Shadow appeared, Fang Chen sensed that his real realm was probably at the peak of the Invincible Saint Realm. There was still some distance between him and the Ultimate Saint.
The current Fang Chen was more than enough to deal with it.
Swoosh!
Ultimate Power circled around and the Sword Domain expanded, completely enveloping Demon Shadow. At this moment, Demon Shadow also sensed that Fang Chen was approaching. It opened its mouth and spat out black light.
Dong! Dong!
Dong! The black light was blocked by Fang Chen's Heaven-Destroying Sword.
Boom!
Then, the battle broke out. Fang Chen used his absolute power to fight against Demon Shadow.
At the start, he only wanted to get rid of Demon Shadow. However, as they fought, he realized that Demon Shadow's Space Dao was incredible. He suddenly had an idea.
If he had Yao Ying as his mount, what would that be like?
With Demon Shadow's attainments in the Space Dao, his speed was unparalleled. He could pass through any dangerous place at will. This would greatly increase his competitiveness.
Bang!
After a while, Fang Chen slashed out with his Heaven-Destroying Sword and pierced Demon Shadow's body. Demon Shadow let out a blood-curdling scream. At the same time, Fang Chen activated his Sword Territory and suppressed Demon Shadow.
Demon Shadow was suppressed and it struggled with all its might. However, it was useless.
"Stop struggling. It's useless."
Fang Chen grinned. "You have two choices now. Die or submit to me and become my mount."
"Dream on."
Demon Shadow spoke in human language and it was furious.
As a Demon Shadow, it was actually suppressed by a human. It was filled with indignation and anger.
"Attack their Primordial Spirits," Princess Huang said.
She had read ancient books and had some understanding of Demon Shadow. Their speed was unparalleled and they were skilled in the Space Dao. However, their Soul Dao was their weakness. This was especially so for their Primordial Spirits. Once targeted, they would be completely paralyzed.
"You …"
Indeed, after hearing Princess Huang's words, Demon Shadow panicked.
Buzz!
A terrifying Soul Dao power suddenly descended. Lin Fan's Primordial Spirit, which was close to the Dao Manifestation Realm, released its strongest spiritual consciousness. The destructive aura invaded Demon Shadow's mind.
At the start, Demon Shadow was still struggling. However, as time passed, Demon Shadow's eyes turned blurry and it turned into a walking corpse.
When Fang Chen withdrew his spiritual consciousness, Demon Shadow's eyes were empty and it had lost its mind.
Fang Chen naturally controlled Demon Shadow and made it his mount.
This scene caused Princess Huang to exclaim.
That was Demon Shadow and it was actually suppressed by Fang Chen.
"After so many years, you are probably the first person to use Demon Shadow as a mount," Princess Huang said.
"This fellow's attainments in the Space Dao are extremely high. With it as a mount, we can avoid many dangers."
Fang Chen controlled Demon Shadow and made it smaller. Then, he sat on Demon Shadow's back with Princess Huang.
Crash!
Demon Shadow took off, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
"Let's continue forward."
Fang Chen sat on Demon Shadow's back and scanned the strange mountain range. The two Divine Beasts' bloodlines were still in an abnormal state. This meant that there was something in the depths of the mountain range that attracted the two Divine Beasts' bloodlines.
With Demon Shadow, he was very confident.
He wanted to go to the end and take a look. Even if he encountered danger, he could ride Demon Shadow and escape from the strange mountain range.
"Such fast speed."
Princess Huang touched her hair and couldn't help but sigh. The space around them kept changing and she was a little dazzled.
After seeing Demon Shadow with her own eyes, Princess Huang believed that the ancient records of Demon Shadow were wrong. The real Demon Shadow was much stronger than what was recorded in the ancient records.
Especially their attainments in the Space Dao. It was simply unimaginable.
Most likely, the Jialuo Race and the Primordial Race might not be able to catch up to them in the Space Dao.
At the end of the strange mountain range.
One after another, the figures of the beasts gathered at the spot.
"Our Demon Shadow Race is a noble race. How can we be trampled on by other races?"
The leading Demon Shadow said angrily.
"We swear to protect the glory of our race."
The other Demon Shadows let out deafening voices.
