About three hundred thousand miles away from Jade Water City, there are no islands within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, only the ocean connecting the water and the sky.
And in this water area, powerful ferocious beasts are hidden. With the recovery of the origin of the Great Dao, the strength of the ferocious beasts is also growing rapidly. Compared with the intelligent races with spirituality, the overall strength of the ferocious beasts can be said to be the fastest growing.
Abandoning wisdom and possessing only primitive bestiality, the ferocious beasts are undoubtedly the fastest group to adapt to the environment of heaven and earth. Even saints dare not stay in this sea area for too long.
In a seabed canyon tens of thousands of miles away from the sea surface, there are no ordinary demon beasts here. Those who can survive here are at least extraordinary demon beasts and ferocious beasts.
At this moment, in an inconspicuous cave in the sea canyon, two figures are hidden here. One of the figures emits a faint divine light, forming a protective shield to protect the other person inside.
"Old Zhao, don't die. If you die, I won't be able to explain it to Zhang San when I go back." Lei Heng looked anxiously at Zhao Quan inside the protective shield. Even with his aura protecting him, Zhao Quan's vitality was gradually weakening.
Injured by the aura of a saint and damaging his origin, and they are still evading the other party's pursuit, even Lei Heng has no way to help.
"Old Lei... I'm dying, you should leave quickly..." Zhao Quan said weakly, opening his mouth with difficulty. His voice was very low. He could feel that his vitality was about to run out and didn't want to burden Lei Heng.
But Lei Heng is an extremely trustworthy person. When Zhao Quan and Zhang San were still very weak, they spent one million top-grade source crystals to hire him as a bodyguard. If it were someone else, they would have already been tempted by the money, killed them, and seized the treasure. But Lei Heng didn't have any such thoughts.
When leaving Jade Water City, he promised Zhang San to protect Zhao Quan, so how could he leave easily?
"No way!" Lei Heng refused decisively.
"You..." Zhao Quan didn't know what to say. He couldn't help but think of Zhang San's father.
"Don't talk!"
Lei Heng's face changed. He felt a powerful aura approaching and quickly restrained his aura, remaining silent.
"Looking for death!"
At this moment, a powerful energy fluctuation came from outside. Because it was at the bottom of the sea, the sound became extremely deep, like the whispers of ghosts and gods.
A strong smell of blood came from outside. Obviously, the person who came had killed the powerful ferocious beasts outside.
Lei Heng's forehead suddenly showed cold sweat. The person who came was very strong, very strong, much stronger than the person who was chasing them.
Could it be that the other party provoked an even stronger person?
A sense of despair rose in Lei Heng's heart.
Just then, a golden light shone in from outside the cave after being refracted by the water. When Lei Heng saw this, he immediately guarded the seriously injured Zhao Quan behind him, even though he knew it was useless, he still did it.
Even if he couldn't escape death, he would have to step over my Lei Heng's corpse!
"Bang!"
A muffled sound rang out, and the barrier that Lei Heng had set up in advance shattered. Lei Heng stared at the entrance of the cave with his eyes fixed, and the thought of self-destructing and dragging the other party down with him arose in his heart.
At this moment, a young man with extraordinary bearing walked in. His eyes were sharp like an eagle.
"Lei Heng, Zhao Quan?"
Tianpeng asked. (Some people say that Tianpeng Ancient Emperor's son has no name, but in fact, Tianpeng is his name. Hong Hong has always called him Tianpeng, not a nickname!)
"Who are you?"
Seeing that the other party's aura was peaceful and without any killing intent, Lei Heng didn't act.
"My young lady is Zhang San's martial aunt. I was entrusted by Zhang San to take you back."
Tianpeng said lightly, his attitude neither cold nor enthusiastic.
Lei Heng was stunned when he heard this, and he quickly said, "Please take action to save Old Zhao first, he can't hold on anymore."
After speaking, Lei Heng stepped aside to make it easier for Tianpeng to see Zhao Quan.
Tianpeng didn't talk nonsense. He came to Zhao Quan, looked down, and said softly, "The origin is broken, and the soul is damaged. Ordinary holy medicines or holy pills are useless."
"What?"
Lei Heng was shocked. Could it be that Zhao Quan was really beyond help?
Although Zhao Quan's cultivation was weaker than him, the two had been together in the City Lord's Mansion for three thousand years. Because of Zhang San, they often drank together and formed a deep friendship. He didn't want his friend to die in front of him.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet."
Tianpeng said again, then took out a bottle of pills, poured out one from it, flicked his finger, and it entered Zhao Quan's mouth.
Lei Heng watched this scene. In just an instant, he felt an incomparably majestic vitality in Zhao Quan's body repairing his origin and soul, and Zhao Quan's pale complexion visibly became ruddy.
"This is..."
"Nine Revolutions Life Renewal Pill!"
Tianpeng said.
"Hiss!"
Lei Heng gasped. For him, this thing was a legendary pill, only existing in various legends.
Soon, under the powerful medicinal power of the Nine Revolutions Life Renewal Pill, Zhao Quan's injuries healed, and even his cultivation broke through a small realm, which was considered a blessing in disguise.
"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Zhao Quan didn't know Tianpeng's name and could only call him Your Excellency.
"Let's go!" Tianpeng said.
"Buzz!"
But at this moment, an energy fluctuation came from outside, and then some low words followed.
"The smell of blood is so strong here, the ferocious beasts must have just been cleared. Search, they must be nearby."
"Yes!"
...
Lei Heng and Zhao Quan's faces changed slightly. The uninvited guests outside were obviously the ones who were chasing them.
Tianpeng seemed to see their worries and said, "They are just clowns, easily killed!"
"Can Your Excellency sense their strength?" Lei Heng asked.
Tianpeng nodded and said, "One Saint Realm peak, three Saint Realm seventh level, and the remaining five, Saint Realm fourth to sixth level."
One, three, five, a total of nine people, the same number as those chasing them.
"Your Excellency, can you please not rush to take action later? I want to find out who sent them," Lei Heng said.
Now that there is a strong helper here, Lei Heng naturally wanted to know who was attacking them. This was a hidden enemy.
"That's simple!"
Tianpeng's figure flashed. Lei Heng and Zhao Quan were stunned when they saw this, not knowing what Tianpeng wanted to do. But soon, they knew what Tianpeng wanted to do.
"Who are you?"
"Ah..."
"Don't come over, don't come over..."
"Bang!"
...
Powerful energy fluctuations accompanied by continuous screams. This deep sea canyon was completely turned into a deep sea basin, only the cave where Lei Heng and Zhao Quan were located was unaffected.
The energy fluctuations and screams quickly subsided. Lei Heng and Zhao Quan left the cave out of curiosity. What caught their eyes was Tianpeng pinching a person's neck, and asked, "Say, who sent you here?"
"..."
Lei Heng and Zhao Quan looked at each other. This man, who looked not fierce, was really simple and rude!
"Not saying?" Seeing that the other party was stubborn, with an appearance of 'just kill me if you have the guts', Tianpeng suddenly showed a sneer.
"Although this method is very cruel, I think the young lady will understand me."
Tianpeng showed a fierce light. The next moment, a huge divine thought poured into the other party's divine sea, wanting to forcibly search the soul.
"Ah..."
The man screamed in pain, but Tianpeng didn't care at all. His divine thought began to search the other party's memory in the other party's divine sea, but at this moment, a hazy light of chaos slashed towards his divine thought. Tianpeng was shocked. Without any defense, his divine thought was cut off.
Just as Tianpeng wanted to counterattack the other party with a stronger divine thought, he only heard the other party snort coldly: "It's you again, this big Peng bird, ruining my good deeds, hum!"
The next moment, with a "bang", the man's head exploded, and his soul also exploded, splashing Tianpeng's face with blood.
But Tianpeng didn't say a word. He just frowned deeply. He was a little familiar with that voice, but he couldn't remember it. However, the other party must know him, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a thing.
Who is it?
Tianpeng was puzzled, but obviously the puzzle could not be solved at this time, but the other party actually planted a restriction in the divine sea of these people, presumably to plot something.
I have to tell the young lady when I go back.
Tianpeng thought, wiped the blood from his face, and then took the confused Lei Heng and Zhao Quan back to Jade Water City.
Zhang San was relieved to see that Zhao Quan and Lei Heng were safe and sound.
But Tianpeng told everything he had seen and heard earlier.
When Ye Hongyi heard this, she said softly, "Recently, there seems to be a group of people on the Starry Sky Ancient Road who specialize in tomb raiding. I wonder if it has anything to do with this."
In the past hundred years, the ancestral graves of many major forces on the Starry Sky Ancient Road have been stolen. This force is very mysterious, and no one knows why they want to steal some dead people's graves.
(The final battle on the Starry Sky Ancient Road begins here)
