Peerless War God

“Roar! Roar!”    

The angry scorpions were emitting red light from their eyes, and their bodies were emitting a shocking aura. They crazily pounced toward Wang Xiao. Some of the scorpions directly leaped into the air and jumped thousands of feet high, smashing down heavily.    

The scorpion swarm was extremely aggressive, and Wang Xiao was startled.    

“Your reaction is very fast. Run!”    

At this moment, he had no other thoughts except to run for his life. The Divine Speed Talisman on his body lit up, causing his movement speed to suddenly increase.    

He was almost sticking to the ground and quickly fleeing. The reason he didn’t dare to fly high up was because he was worried that he would attract the attention of other flying demonic beasts.    

Firstly, he was worried that he would attract the aggro of other flying demonic beasts if he made too much noise.    

Secondly, his goal was to lure away the scorpion swarm and share some of the pressure on Deng Tianxin. Sticking to the ground would make it easier for the scorpions to target him.    

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”    

The sound of the ground was like thunder, shaking the sky and the earth. A group of angry scorpions were desperately chasing after him.    

However, the scorpions were not good at speed. Even though Wang Xiao was only at the Tribulation Transcender Realm, his movement speed was not inferior to the scorpions. Therefore, he was able to easily hang on to the group of scorpions.    

Seeing this, Wang Xiao chuckled and said, “Animals are indeed animals. They are so slow. It seems that it won’t be difficult for Uncle Tianxin to succeed.”    

Thinking of this, he deliberately slowed down his footsteps and looked back. He saw a dense swarm of scorpions chasing after him like a black flood.    

"Come on, a mere scorpion demon. Eat another slash of mine."    

Wang Xiao shouted arrogantly. He raised the saber in his hand and brandished it repeatedly. Instantly, several long and narrow saber beams flew out, each measuring a thousand feet in height. They slashed towards the scorpion demons that were chasing after him.    

"Bang."    

The saber beams landed, producing loud booms. The yellow sand danced wildly, and another dozen scorpion demons were slashed into two by the saber beams. They fell to the ground.    

"Roar!"    

The remaining scorpion demons became even more furious. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they had already lost their rationality. They were chasing after Wang Xiao with all their might, and they no longer had any other thoughts.    

After all, they were only demon beasts, and their intelligence was limited.    

When Wang Xiao saw this, he did not act arrogantly. He hastened his movement technique and continued fleeing. However, the only thing that made him feel a bit of pity was that the strongest scorpion demon leader had not been attracted by him.    

In this way, the leader was still entrenched in his lair. To Deng Tianxin, this was not a good thing.    

Scorpion demons were good at burrowing. If the leader of the scorpion demons were to hide in the cave and refuse to come out, then even Deng Tianxin would have no way to deal with him.    

In other words, even if Deng Tianxin was confident that he could defeat the leader of the scorpion demons, it would not be that easy to kill him.    

"What a pity. The leader of the scorpion demons is still in his lair. I don't know if Uncle Tianxin can succeed."    

Wang Xiao thought to himself. He turned his head and glanced behind him. He saw that the scorpion demons that were chasing him were getting closer.    

Wang Xiao sneered, “Hmph, then come again.”    

As he spoke, a large handful of Fireball Talismans appeared in his left hand, and he prepared to throw them out.    

He’d already calculated in his heart that as long as he fled while attacking from afar, then it wouldn’t be long before he’d annihilate this swarm of scorpions.    

Even though the consumption of the Divine Speed Talismans was shocking and slightly painful, it was nothing compared to the fact that he’d obtained a spirit ore vein after annihilating the leader of the scorpions.    

“Go.”    

When he thought up to here, Wang Xiao didn’t hesitate any longer. His right hand shook, and then a few tens of Fireball Talismans smashed out like meteors descending from the sky, smashing towards the swarm of scorpions that were chasing after him.    

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!    

The Fireballs exploded right in front of the swarm of scorpions, causing smoke and dust to rise into the air, and the smell of burning spread out. In an instant, the entire swarm of scorpions was enveloped in a sea of flames, and it caused a great amount of damage.    

With this strike, another few hundred scorpions were burned to death.    

Wang Xiao was delighted when he saw this, and he said, “How delightful.”    

He’d used so many high-ranked talismans in an instant, yet he didn’t dare imagine it. He could only do this because he had the support of his clan, and only then did he have so many talismans and medicinal pills that he could use. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to be so extravagant.    

When he thought up to here, he withdrew a medicinal pill and swiftly stuffed it into his mouth to recover his exhausted magic.    

As he refined the medicinal strength, he muttered in his heart, “I don’t know why, but my magic actually loses so quickly in this secret realm. It’s truly strange. Fortunately, I brought sufficient medicinal pills with me.”    

Only then did he feel a little more at ease. He glanced at the group of scorpion demons that were chasing after him relentlessly, then he turned around and suddenly accelerated, wanting to escape.    

However, at this moment, an extremely inconspicuous, yet astonishing light flew over from the horizon and attacked him.    

“Hmm? This is?”    

Wang Xiao was greatly shocked, and he was scared out of his wits. His face turned pale, and he subconsciously trembled, causing his head to feel cold from the back.    

He was truly frightened, and only after his eyes widened fiercely did he confirm that this was a flying sword attack.    

He cried out loudly, “Not good.”    

He hurriedly raised his hand to resist and propped up a barrier of magical energy in front of him in an attempt to block it.    

This light came with a fierce momentum, and it came too quickly. In a flash, it had already arrived before him, and it didn’t give Wang Xiao any time to react at all. It hit him in an instant.    

Bang!    

The barrier of magical energy that Wang Xiao had hurriedly cast was shattered inch by inch. White cracks spread out like a spiderweb, and it finally completely shattered.    

As a result, Wang Xiao’s forward charge was directly stopped. In fact, the power of this sword attack was too great, and it even pushed him back a distance.    

Wang Xiao was still in a state of shock. He sent out his Divine Sense in an attempt to find the culprit who had launched the sneak attack.    

“Who is the one who launched the sneak attack? I…”    

However, before he could curse, he heard a rumbling sound from behind him.    

He turned his head around in horror, only to discover that the scorpion demons behind him were chasing after him.    

Just now, he had been ambushed by this sword and had been obstructed from advancing. As a result, the scorpion demons had caught up to him in an instant.    

“Damn it, you shameless scoundrel who ambushed me from behind! Don’t let me find you! Otherwise, I’ll tear you into a thousand pieces and slaughter your entire family!”    

Wang Xiao was a little flustered. He cursed as he took out a teleportation talisman, wanting to escape from this place. Escaping first was more important.    

At the same time, on a hill not far away, the Third Prince had a cold expression on his face. His gaze was as vicious as a poisonous snake.    

“You want to escape? Hmph, can you escape? Go.”    

He pointed with his right hand, and a sword light flew out. It was extremely fast, and with a flash, it crossed several kilometers and stabbed at the teleportation talisman in Wang Xiao’s hand, not giving him the chance to escape.    

Wang Xiao was furious when he saw this. His face contorted. “Bastard, you’re still coming?”    

He had no choice but to give up on using the teleportation talisman. After all, if he used the teleportation talisman, he had to stand still. This several breaths of time was enough for the enemy to heavily injure him.    

He hurriedly dodged and dodged the attack of the flying sword, narrowly avoiding this sword.    

Wang Xiao had been hit by the flying sword from a long-range attack because he had been completely unprepared. Now that he was prepared, it wouldn’t be so easy for the Third Prince’s sword to stab him.
