Under the pressure, Qin Shi grabbed Huo Dao and dodged to the left.
Boom!
In the next second, a bottomless pit was blasted open out of thin air where the two of them had just stood. Not only was the layer of the ground nearly a kilometer deep penetrated by the sudden burst of spiritual power, it even seeped thousands of meters into the ground.
The two of them stabilized their bodies and heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. It was fortunate that Qin Shi had reacted quickly. If he had been half a second slower, it would have been impossible for the two of them to escape unscathed. Forget about Huo Dao, even Qin Shi did not dare guarantee that he would be able to block the attack in such a sudden situation and come out unscathed.
"What a terrifying Spiritual Power …!"
Huo Dao guessed guiltily. "Could it be that there are some extraordinary fierce beasts in the center of the ground?"
Qin Shi was silent for a moment. What Huo Dao said was possible. There were fierce beasts in the depths of the ground, but they were extremely rare due to the harsh environment. Special fierce beasts like the Dragon Chimera and the Sand Beast could overcome the environment and even take advantage of the geographical advantage to capture fierce beasts that were much stronger than them.
However, after Qin Shi calmed down, he frowned and suddenly said, "No, this Spiritual Power isn't caused by a fierce beast. Even if it is, it's not a fierce beast."
"What do you mean?" Huo Dao didn't understand.
Qin Shi tentatively took a step forward. Seeing that the Spiritual Energy fluctuations had all dissipated, he made a grabbing motion and grabbed the remaining Spiritual Energy in the air.
"Break!"
Shortly after, he opened his palm, and a bolt of purple lightning shot out. The lightning shattered the molecules in the air, and the remaining spirit force in his palm quickly disintegrated, revealing more than a dozen colorful and different spirit lights.
"As expected!"
Staring at the spiritual lights, Qin Shi was even more certain. "The Spiritual Power just now was caused by many people. That's why there was such a huge fluctuation underground."
"So you mean that there are people fighting above us?" Huo Dao asked, not fully understanding.
Qin Shi nodded. "It might not be people, but there are definitely people fighting, and there are quite a lot of them."
"Then what should we do?" Hearing this, Huo Dao panicked. He said in a somewhat discouraged manner, "Could it be that we have to circle back?
There's a limited number of Beast Trapping Cages. We've already wasted a lot of time. If we go back, I'm afraid … I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to get a Beast Trapping Cage. "
"Go around?" Qin Shi was stunned for a moment before he smiled faintly. "How is that possible? That's not my style."
"What do you mean?" Huo Dao asked curiously.
Tilting his neck, Qin Shi said nonchalantly, "They can fight their own battles, and we'll go our own way. There's no conflict between us, so who cares?"
"Are you saying that we should continue to leave this place?" Huo Dao widened his eyes in disbelief. Wasn't this the same as sending sheep into a tiger's mouth?
There was no such thing as pity in this place.
"Senior, don't worry and just follow me."
Qin Shi was too lazy to say anything else. He calmed himself down and looked at the hole that had just been smashed by the spiritual force. He laughed. "Haha, this is convenient. I don't even have to make a hole myself."
Shortly after, he waved at Huo Dao and walked towards the giant hole.
Huo Dao was left alone in a dilemma. In the end, he could only follow Qin Shi, not knowing what to do.
The two of them walked a few hundred meters along the giant hole. The closer they were to the surface, the more intense the spiritual force ripples became. Just as they were about to break out, Qin Shi's black eyes turned solemn. He turned around and shouted at Huo Dao, "Senior, it might be a little too fast to catch me next."
Huo Dao nodded and grabbed Qin Shi with his withered hand.
Seeing that Huo Dao was ready, Qin Shi's black eyes flashed with purple lightning. Immediately, zigzagging lightning bolts appeared under his black robe. In an instant, his figure became illusory. The air above him was completely shattered, and an afterimage shot out of the giant hole.
Swoosh!
In the blink of an eye, he had traversed a distance of several thousand meters. Huo Dao followed behind him, and the scene in front of him became distorted. When he regained his senses, he had already left the depths of the ground and appeared in the sky above the crack of the Beast World. Below him were snow-white clouds.
He was instantly dumbfounded and trembled in shock. "What, what kind of speed is this?"
Qin Shi didn't explain. Ever since he had broken through to the fourth level of the Heaven Apex Realm, he had never displayed his full speed. Even he didn't expect to achieve such an effect. He nodded in satisfaction. "Senior, how is it?
Will there be any problems if I say so? "
"This is too unbelievable." Huo Dao shook his head. This was the fastest speed that he had ever seen, excluding the use of spatial energy.
Qin Shi smiled. Shortly after, he looked down and was stunned by the extraordinary power of his eyes. "Haha, my guess was right."
When Huo Dao saw Qin Shi's expression, he frowned slightly. He looked over curiously and saw a figure being surrounded by over a dozen figures. That person had already suffered significant injuries. When Huo Dao clearly saw the surrounded figure, he could not help but be stunned. He exclaimed, "It's him?
The first participant to enter the crack of the Beast World? "
Qin Shi wasn't surprised and nodded. The figure that was surrounded was the Old King from the Forbidden Realm. "Yes, I've already said that the bird that pokes its head out will be shot. This is the inevitable result."
"But why are they doing this?
The second round is a competition of trapped beasts. It's not a competition of cultivation. "Huo Dao couldn't figure it out.
Qin Shi looked at Huo Dao strangely. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Huo Dao's naivety. He couldn't understand how Huo Dao had managed to survive for so many years. "Senior is right. The Talisman Demon Competition isn't a competition of cultivation. However, although it's not a competition of Spiritual Energy and there's no need to kill each other, what do you think is needed to win the competition?"
"Of course it's to refine a Transcendent Demon Talisman." Huo Dao was confused.
"Yes, but if you want to refine a Transcendent Demon Talisman, don't you think you need to capture a Transcendent Demon Beast as a base?"
"Of course!"
"That's right."
Qin Shi nodded and sneered. "Capturing a Transcendent Demon Beast requires a higher Spiritual Energy cultivation. When Old Wang revealed his strength in the outside world, it's obvious that his Spiritual Energy cultivation is higher than many of the participants. If that's the case, it's very likely that he will capture a Transcendent Demon Beast. Thus, his chances of winning will be higher and he will naturally become a thorn in the side of others."
Hearing this, Huo Dao understood. He suddenly thought of the reason why Qin Shi didn't make a move at the beginning and said, "So that's why you didn't take the initiative to attack at the beginning?"
Qin Shi nodded in agreement. So many years of training had allowed him to better understand how to hide his edge. Only in this way would he be able to stab out a sword that was impossible to dodge at the crucial moment.
Huo Dao had a whole new level of respect for Qin Shi.
"Let's go."
Qin Shi said calmly. He was already used to this kind of thing. Furthermore, they were competitors to begin with. There was no need for him to bring trouble to himself.
Huo Dao understood Qin Shi's meaning, so he nodded.
However, all of a sudden, as soon as Qin Shi took a step forward, an ear-piercing voice arose in his ears. His eyes turned cold and he stopped moving.
"Alright, brothers. Let's not waste time. Let's leave this damn place as soon as possible. That way, I can go to Wu Ning's place."
"Hehe, you think too highly of yourself. Wu Ning?
Wu Ning will let you get close to her? "
"Hehe, you don't know. Elder Chu Deyu promised me that as long as this plan goes smoothly, he will create a chance for me to expel Wu Ning from the Chaotic Lands. As long as Wu Ning is a disciple of the Chaotic Lands, it will be a piece of cake for me to get her."
"Is that true?"
"Of course. Why would I lie to you?"
"That's not bad. But don't forget that Wu Ning has Zhao Xin and Dong Qing with her. They are not easy to mess with."
"Hmph, what are you afraid of? If Zhao Xin and Dong Qing dare to say anything, I will kill them as well. With Elder Chu Deyu's support, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"Hahaha, you're right. Then, I wish you a happy night. Don't forget to share some with me. Wu Ning, that little girl, I had my eyes on her a few years ago. But back then, she was popular in the Inner Area. We couldn't get close to her."
"Don't worry. Back then, she was. Now, she is at most a phoenix whose feathers have been plucked. Won't we be able to trample on her however we want?" After surrounding Lao Wang, the 10 participants spoke one after another and laughed coldly in disdain.
In the sky, Huo Dao was surprised to see Qin Shi's strange behavior. He couldn't help but ask, "My young friend, what are you doing?"
"I'm not leaving!"
Qin Shi's voice was so cold that it made people shiver. His shadow flashed and disappeared in front of Huo Dao.
"You, what do you want?"
Surrounded by more than a dozen people, Old Wang was covered in wounds. Although he had achieved the Initial Domain Realm, even a fierce tiger couldn't defeat a pack of wolves. Moreover, he was not a fierce tiger.
Almost all the disciples from the Chaotic Lands were in the Domain Realm. Three of their leaders had reached the peak of the Initial Domain Realm and were only half a step away from the Advanced Domain Realm.
It was no wonder that the spiritual power created by the joint attack of more than a dozen people had made Qin Shi slightly afraid.
"What are we doing?
Haha, this is an interesting question. Just think of it as us getting rid of a pest for the people. "The leader of the Chaotic Lands, who was also the disciple who had just talked about Wu Ning, sneered.
"You, you've gone too far!"
Murderous intent shot out from Lao Wang's eyes. However, what made his heart chill the most was that there were many participants passing by not far from him. Among them, there was no lack of people who had followed him into the crack in the Beast World. However, no one was willing to help him.
"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for being too eye-catching. Is the Forbidden Lands worthy of first place?"
The disciple sneered disdainfully. Then, he waved his hand and grabbed at Old Wang. "Remember, first place will always belong to the Chaotic Lands."
All of a sudden, a suction force suppressed Lao Wang, causing his expression to turn into one of terror.
"The Chaotic Lands are really arrogant."
Suddenly, a calm voice came from the sky.
Boom!
