Eternal Sacred King
chapter-2497

Xie Qingcheng and the others felt their hairs stand on end from the monster's stare!

This monster seemed to be even more terrifying than the Asura race!

Although the Asura race was tall and burly like fiendcelestials, they did not look so terrifying at the very least.

The monster before them was like a malevolent ghost that appeared mysteriously and could even deceive everyone's senses!

Su Zimo stared at the monster thoughtfully.

For some unknown reason, when he saw that monster, the Rakshasa race appeared in his mind!

Although the two of them looked different, they were ugly and terrifying with menacing expressions like malevolent ghosts. Furthermore, their methods were extremely violent and their combat strength was shocking!

Even if the skinny cultivator was prepared, he would not have been able to defend against that attack earlier on.

However, that monster looked extremely different from the Rakshasa race.

Even the weakest Rakshasa had wings as sharp as scythes. However, the monster before him did not have wings.

"Yaksha!"

Xie Qingcheng exclaimed softly with a pale expression.

"So, this is the Yaksha race."

Su Zimo murmured softly in deep thought.

Previously, when he heard Xie Qingcheng describe the Yaksha race, he felt a sense of déjà vu.

Now that he saw the Yaksha race with his own eyes, the feeling was even more obvious.

In reality, apart from their appearances, there was a huge difference between the weapons, methods and techniques used by the Yaksha and Rakshasa races.

The connection between the Yaksha and Rakshasa races was merely a wild thought on Su Zimo's part without any basis.

Furthermore, he knew too little about the Yaksha race.

At the thought of the Rakshasa race, Su Zimo could not help but recall Rakshasa Yu of Tianhuang Mainland.

He heard that Rakshasa Yu had already ascended to the upper world and did not know how she was doing.

Right then, the Yaksha had already chewed the skinny cultivator's skull. After swallowing it, it suddenly grinned at Xie Qingcheng and the others, revealing a row of grisly red teeth!

Immediately after, the Yaksha vanished!

This was not teleportation.

The living beings in the Asura battlefield had died for many years. This Yaksha was controlled by the malevolent blood qi and could not release teleportation divine powers.

However, it had indeed vanished!

Just as Xie Qingcheng and the others were in a daze, Su Zimo's voice sounded.

"Watch out!"

Su Zimo stood beside Xie Qingcheng and his expression changed. Suddenly, he reached out and pulled Xie Qingcheng to the side.

Almost at the same time, the ground beneath Xie Qingcheng's feet tore open and a rusted iron fork broke out of the ground, almost piercing past his body by a hair's breadth!

If Su Zimo had been slightly slower, Xie Qingcheng would have been pierced from the bottom up by the iron fork!

Even if he did not die, he would have been severely injured.

Su Zimo saved Xie Qingcheng and strode forward without stopping. Gripping the incoming iron fork with his left hand, he stomped on the ground with his right foot!

Boom!

That stomp caused the ground to quake slightly.

The sound of bones cracking could even be heard!

Su Zimo gripped the iron fork in reverse and pulled it up.

A figure was pulled out from the cracked mud beneath his feet—it was the Yaksha from earlier on.

Although the Yaksha's hands were still gripping the iron fork tightly, its body was slumped on the ground and its head was ruptured—it could no longer fight!

Xie Qingcheng and the others broke out in cold sweat when they saw that.

This Yaksha was elusive and traveled underground without anyone noticing!

What was even more frightening was that this Yaksha was not a living being. It was controlled by the malevolent blood qi and relied on an instinctive combat technique.

Even so, it still had such powerful and terrifying killing methods!

If it was a living Yaksha, what sort of existence would it be?

"Brother Su, thank you for saving my life."

Xie Qingcheng expressed his thanks hurriedly with lingering fear.

"Let's hurry and leave this place."

Su Zimo said in a deep voice, "The commotion here should have alarmed some living beings on the battlefield."

Indeed, before Su Zimo's sentence was finished, a series of furious roars sounded from the depths of the blood fog in the distance.

Although he could not see their exact location, it was clear that other Asuras, powerful demon beasts and even Yakshas had awakened!

The roars intensified, as though terrifying living beings such as the Asuras were everywhere!

"What should we do?"

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying and the others panicked.

The enthusiasm everyone had when they first entered the Asura battlefield cooled down rapidly after seeing a few Heaven Immortal experts die one after another.

Everyone merely wanted to join in and obtain some opportunities. However, none of them wanted to lose their lives!

"Prince Qingcheng, we seem to have been surrounded!"

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying whispered, "Should we tear the teleportation talismans and leave this place? It's not a big deal to get the seal. If we lose our lives because of this, the gains won't make up for the losses."

Xie Qingcheng clenched his fists indignantly.

Was he going to retreat the moment he entered?

Right then, Su Zimo spoke, "Those who want to stay, follow me closely. Try not to be too far away from me and don't go beyond a radius of a hundred feet."

With that said, Su Zimo took the first step forward.

Xie Qingcheng was invigorated and hurried forward, walking shoulder to shoulder with Su Zimo.

Heaven Immortal Yue Ying and the others exchanged glances. After a moment of hesitation, they braced themselves and followed.

Indeed, everyone felt embarrassed to leave now.

Although they followed behind Su Zimo, everyone took out their teleportation talismans just in case. They gripped them in their palms, prepared to tear them at any moment and escape.

Su Zimo was headed in the right direction.

However, along the way, he would often deviate from his original trajectory. Occasionally, he would walk to the side and circle around once more, as though he was avoiding something.

There was no pattern to speak of. It was as though Su Zimo was doing everything casually.

Although everyone was puzzled, they did not dare to leave the group on their own.

Another Yaksha had just appeared.

This time round, the Yaksha suddenly broke through the blood fog and descended from the skies, lunging towards everyone.

However, before the Yaksha could touch everyone's bodies, its head was pierced by the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi released by Su Zimo's fingertip and it died completely.

This time round, everyone was still caught off guard.

This Yaksha was different from the one earlier on.

Although they were both menacing, this Yaksha had a pair of thin meat wings beneath its ribs that connected its arms and feet. Descending from the skies, it was like a gigantic bat!

After such a change, everyone chose to follow closely behind Su Zimo. Nobody dared to go beyond 50 feet, let alone a hundred."

Strangely enough, after half a day, the initially furious roars in the surroundings grew further and further away from everyone and gradually faded.

Although they encountered some ambushes along the way, there were not many living beings that stopped them—there were only one or two.

Furthermore, Su Zimo warned everyone in advance each time they were about to meet with danger.

If everyone was prepared and joined forces, they would be able to kill the danger before long and continue forward.

A day passed and everyone did not encounter any huge dangers along the way. There were no large-scale obstructions by many Asuras, demon beasts or Yakshas along the way.

It was as though everyone had escaped unscathed from the encirclement of powerful living beings such as the Asura race under Su Zimo's lead!
