But in a critical moment.
Zhou Ming suddenly gave the Tianyi Sect Master a push.
The enormous claws of the demonic beast before them, carrying a faint power capable of tearing through the air, reached directly towards Sect Master Tianyi.
At the critical moment.
The Sect Master of Tianyi Sect directly used a teleportation artifact that his ancestor had given him.
He narrowly escaped the monster's claws, and with the help of the magical artifact, he successfully obtained the treasure they had originally wanted.
However, that magical artifact has a three-day cooling-off period after each use, and the Tianyi Sect Master originally intended to use it as a trump card to escape.
It was precisely under these circumstances that he was forced to expose himself, and was even forced to use the only time he could use it in three days.
The secret realm is fraught with danger, and this chance to escape gives the Tianyi Sect Master much more confidence.
After the Tianyi Sect Master obtained the treasure, the demonic beasts that had been guarding it charged towards him once again.
The Sect Master of Tianyi subconsciously pointed the treasure in his hand at the demonic beast in front of him.
A flash of red light, and the demonic beast vanished into nothingness.
Only its golden demon core remained, suspended in mid-air.
The Sect Master of Tianyi subconsciously raised his hand, and the demon core, still warm from its body, landed directly in his palm.
The Sect Master of Tianyi looked at the treasure in his hand in shock. He had not expected that this treasure would be so powerful.
When Zhou Ming saw this scene, he was filled with remorse.
He acted instinctively at that moment, pushing the person next to him out to shield himself from the knife, just to have a chance to survive.
But he never expected that the old bastard Tianyi Sect Master would have such a powerful magic weapon hidden away!
Moreover, the Tianyi Sect Master definitely took advantage of that magic artifact to steal the treasure.
But Zhou Ming had nothing to say at this moment.
His strength and realm are similar to that of the Tianyi Sect Master. He just pushed the Tianyi Sect Master out to take the blow, so the Tianyi Sect Master will definitely not let him go.
If he were to say now that this treasure should not have been obtained by the Tianyi Sect Master, the two of them would probably immediately turn against each other.
The monsters that had previously threatened their lives have been dealt with.
The Sect Master of Tianyi and Zhou Ming exchanged glances, and an awkward and stagnant atmosphere slowly spread between them.
The Sect Master of Tianyi was very angry.
Anyone who is pushed out to take the fall, facing a life-or-death crisis, and forced to use their trump card to escape, will be furious.
But the Sect Master of Tianyi Sect did not forget.
Zhou Ming was his ally, and their strengths were roughly equal.
He originally thought that there weren't many things that humans could use in the Demon Emperor's secret realm.
But so far, what they have gained has exceeded their expectations.
Therefore, the Sect Master of Tianyi did not want to break with Zhou Ming because of this matter.
However, the Sect Master of Tianyi could not swallow this insult and could only stare intently at Zhou Ming in front of him.
Zhou Ming immediately apologized: "Brother Xuanyuan, I was forced by circumstances just now. I originally wanted to push you away from the demon beast, but I didn't expect it. It was all my fault. This is a magic weapon that I made earlier that can teleport. Although it is a one-time use item, I wanted to make it up to you, Brother Xuanyuan."
When Zhou Ming took out this magical artifact, his heart was bleeding.
In the end, what happened just now was also his unethical act.
If he doesn't bring out something good to satisfy this old man, who knows what tricks the old man might secretly play.
The thought that the Sect Master of Tianyi had obtained such a powerful treasure filled Zhou Ming with both jealousy and apprehension.
The Sect Master of Tianyi narrowed his eyes, though he was still quite displeased.
Ultimately, however, he didn't want to completely break ties with Zhou Ming, so he accepted the magic weapon and didn't mention the matter again.
The two prepared to leave.
At that moment, two other demonic beasts lying in ambush nearby were eyeing the treasure that the Tianyi Sect Master was holding.
They ultimately chose to launch a sneak attack.
Both of them were burning with pent-up anger and had nowhere to vent it, and these two suddenly appearing demonic beasts became their best outlet.
The two looked at each other.
They worked together seamlessly, each taking down a monster.
Given their strength, they could have easily killed the two demonic beasts with a single slap, but they chose not to.
In order to vent their resentment towards each other, the two of them deliberately vented all their grievances on the two demonic beasts.
The two demonic beasts were brutally tortured by the two men until they were completely bruised and battered.
In his final moments, he was literally killed by excruciating pain.
Zhou Ming and the Tianyi Sect Master took out their respective demon cores with expressionless faces, only then feeling their anger subside slightly.
The birth of a treasure naturally involves fluctuations. In addition to the three demonic beasts that have already appeared, there are actually other demonic beasts nearby.
However, the first three monsters that appeared were the strongest.
Now, among the remaining demonic beasts, the three strongest of them have all been killed by these two terrifying humans.
Moreover, the two demonic beasts that went out later died in such a painful way that the other demonic beasts dared not come out to ambush them again.
However, the fact that these demonic beasts were unwilling to make a move did not mean that Zhou Ming and Sect Master Tianyi were willing to let them go.
Zhou Ming and the Tianyi Sect Master acted swiftly, subduing about half of the slower-moving demonic beasts.
Zhou Ming originally intended to kill these demonic beasts directly and extract their demon cores.
But the Sect Master of Tianyi hadn't forgotten that he chased after Xiao Feng into the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm because he wanted to use the secret realm as cover to cripple Xiao Feng directly.
He will use the things given to him by the ancestor to hide Xiao Feng. After leaving the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, he will immediately return to the Heavenly One Sect!
The Heavenly Sect Master's idea is wonderful.
Thanks to Xiao Feng's previous banditry, his reputation among the demon race in the secret realm has spread far and wide.
In fact, the place where Zhou Ming and the Tianyi Sect Master are currently located is not too far from Xiao Feng and the others.
If the Sect Master of Tianyi is patient and searches diligently, he will also be able to find Xiao Feng.
Unfortunately, the Sect Master of Tianyi Sect didn't have that patience.
After obtaining information about Xiao Feng's whereabouts from these demonic beasts, the Tianyi Sect Master snapped the necks of all the beasts and extracted their demon cores.
"Brother Xuanyuan, are you planning to capture Xiao Feng next?" Zhou Ming asked abruptly after seeing the Tianyi Sect Master's ruthless actions.
"Of course, Brother Zhou, won't you come with me?" The Tianyi Sect Master looked at Zhou Ming in front of him.
"I won't join in the fun, but I still want to remind Brother Xuanyuan that Wu Qi is not an easy opponent. If he finds out that you killed his people, it might not be easy for you to leave the Demon Realm smoothly."
Zhou Ming certainly wouldn't be so foolish as to offend Wu Qi.
He had lived in Mad Lion City for so long, and he had never seen Wu Qirang ride in a palanquin with any human!
Although Zhou Ming dislikes Xiao Feng, it doesn't mean he would actively seek death.
After understanding Zhou Ming's meaning, the Sect Master of Tianyi Sect did not force Zhou Ming.
Even if Zhou Ming hadn't brought it up, the Tianyi Sect Master would have found an opportunity to part ways with him.
He dared not keep a teammate who might push him out to take the fall at any moment by his side.
