The sword energy struck the ground, raising clouds of dust!
Bang!
Zhang Xiaojiang swung his heavy sword to block the sword energy while retreating rapidly backward.
However, even with his incredible speed, he couldn't evade all attacks.
In an instant, he was struck by the sword energy seven or eight times.
Fresh blood kept gushing from the wound.
"No, we must leave here, or we'll surely die!"
"But right now, the demonic beasts are attacking the Demon King's cave, which is the place I most long to enter. What should I do?"
"What bad luck! Why am I so unlucky? I'm really reaping what I sowed."
Zhang Xiaojiang cursed inwardly.
If it weren't for this demonic tiger, he could have escaped safely.
But now, he can only hope that the Demon King's cave can protect him.
After all, while monsters may not be as intelligent as humans, they are incredibly powerful.
"No, we can't delay any longer."
Zhang Xiaojiang took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "I can't sit idly by and wait to die. I must fight back, I must fight back!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaojiang suddenly looked up, his gaze fixed firmly on the distant Demon King's cave.
His eyes were filled with madness!
Zhang Xiaojiang's heavy sword shot towards the cave like a meteor!
The heavy sword pierced through the cave entrance, and the scene inside the cave came into Zhang Xiaojiang's view.
This cave is magnificent and covers an area of several miles!
The interior is exquisitely decorated and breathtakingly beautiful!
"This is the Demon King's cave."
A glint of greed flashed in Zhang Xiaojiang's eyes.
He narrowed his eyes, a murderous intent flashing within them!
"Hmph, you beasts, how dare you block my way! Your crimes are unforgivable!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xiaojiang stepped into the Demon King's cave!
Upon entering the cave, a hazy light enveloped him, isolating him from the outside world.
Zhang Xiaojiang breathed a sigh of relief, but a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.
He stomped his right foot so hard that it shattered the floor, and he shot out like an arrow!
There is no danger inside the demon king's cave.
Because Zhang Xiaojiang doesn't need to hide; this is his territory!
Here, he is the true ruler!
His strength has reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.
Zhang Xiaojiang was incredibly fast, dashing a hundred meters in an instant! After another hundred meters of rapid movement, he finally escaped the danger.
"This demon king's cave should be relatively safe; let's cultivate here for a while."
Zhang Xiaojiang's eyes burned with intense fighting spirit.
The reason this monster reigns supreme in this territory is entirely due to its innate extraordinary abilities!
However, Zhang Xiaojiang was not only exceptionally intelligent, but also possessed astonishing physical strength!
He threw a powerful punch, and the air seemed to explode, creating a series of booming sounds.
Thanks to the nourishment of numerous spiritual herbs, Zhang Xiaojiang's physical body has reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage.
His physique is as strong as iron, indestructible!
Now that he is displaying such offensive power, even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator would not dare to easily resist!
"All of this is thanks to that Demon King Vine."
Zhang Xiaojiang muttered to himself.
Back then, he was severely injured by the Demon King Man, and his condition was critical. Fortunately, he was able to save his life thanks to Man's healing power!
Now, the Demon King Mane has grown strong and healthy, not only regaining its original power, but also helping Zhang Xiaojiang improve his strength by two levels, allowing his cultivation to reach two more levels.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaojiang's cultivation level has surpassed the third level of Qi Refining!
The difference between the ninth level of Qi Refining and the sixth level of Qi Refining is vast, but they are fearless in front of him.
In his eyes, these demonic beasts were nothing but ants, which he could wipe out with a single palm strike.
Zhang Xiaojiang's legs moved lightly across the ground at an astonishing speed.
In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to the core area of the Demon King's cave!
"Um?"
"What... is going on?"
The sight before him caused Zhang Xiaojiang's pupils to suddenly contract!
He saw five Demon King Vines scattered ahead, each as thick as a person's waist, pale red in color, like molten lava, radiating a scorching aura!
These five Demon King Vines are the five Demon King Fruits that Zhang Xiaojiang obtained from the river!
"Ha ha!"
"I'm so lucky!"
"I've always been lucky, and this time is no exception!"
"I will subdue these Demon King Fruits and then refine them into a powerful magic weapon!"
"Then, I can use these five Demon King Fruits to search for that mysterious being." Upon seeing the Demon King Fruits, Zhang Xiaojiang's face beamed with ecstatic joy!
He strode forward, grabbed a Demon King Vine, and frantically sucked the juice from the Demon King Fruit!
The juice from these Demon King Fruits has a tremendous effect on Zhang Xiaojiang.
At this moment, he felt incredibly comfortable all over, as if every inch of his skin was filled with boundless power!
Zhang Xiaojiang stuffed the demon king into his mouth and began to chew it heartily!
"It smells so good!"
"This feels so good!"
"This demon king is truly delicious!"
"I'm going to eat all five Demon King Fruits, and then go find that mysterious being!"
"These demon king vines are all mine, and no one can take them away from me!"
...
A fierce glint of greed flashed in Zhang Xiaojiang's eyes.
He suddenly leaped up and devoured the remaining four Demon King Vines!
Zhang Xiaojiang took a deep breath, savoring the sweet sensation flowing in his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, he sat cross-legged without hesitation, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.
Astonishing fluctuations of Yuan energy continuously surged around Zhang Xiaojiang, awe-inspiring and breathtaking!
Influenced by this Yuan energy, Zhang Xiaojiang's body became increasingly solid, as if it had materialized.
Soon, the fluctuations of his Yuan energy became stronger, and his skin became crystal clear, shimmering with a warm luster.
A blazing flame suddenly burst into flames on his body, instantly illuminating the surroundings!
A deafening roar!
Zhang Xiaojiang was surrounded by raging flames, like a raging sea of fire!
Sweat rolled down his forehead and splashed onto the ground.
His muscles tensed and began to swell, creating a magnificent sight!
Zhang Xiaojiang's skin was sometimes as white as a baby's, and sometimes as red as blood, changing unpredictably and appearing particularly frightening!
"Is this... a state of complete transformation?"
"No...that's not right..."
"Could it be that I have already advanced to the ninth level of Qi Refining?"
A flash of shock appeared in Zhang Xiaojiang's eyes.
Although it was only a minor improvement in his realm, it was a major transformation for him, causing a dramatic change in his state of mind.
He was once just an ordinary person who could have lived a simple life with just a kind heart.
However, he encountered Su Yuhan and Su Yuxin.
