Lan Hua and Ba Xia's faces darkened. Ten Xuan-level experts had suddenly appeared. The opponent was simply too strong.
"Just do it!"
Baxia's body swelled up, reverting to its dragon form, and it attacked those powerful figures.
It would occasionally howl.
Lan Hua summoned the Yuehua Bow, unleashing a barrage of invisible arrows, each strike stronger than the last.
Baxia is responsible for close-range attacks, while Lanhua is responsible for ranged attacks and support.
Although they worked together seamlessly, it took them nearly a week to kill all the powerful figures.
The reason why the two are so powerful is not only because they cooperate well, but more importantly, because they have greatly improved their cultivation levels through previous meditation.
Especially Lan Hua, although it is unknown how many years she has cultivated, she has managed to raise her cultivation level from the early stage of the Xuan rank to the middle stage.
Their strength has made a great leap forward.
Before the two could rest, more powerful figures appeared, this time, there were even more Xuan-level experts, a total of fifteen.
Baxia exclaimed, "Brother Hua, something's not right! Why are there more and more enemies the more we kill?"
Lan Hua also had this question, but she already knew the answer.
"It must be Senior Xiao's idea. He's just doing this to train us!"
The two fought continuously for half a month until Baxia, having exhausted his energy, retreated.
Without close-range support, Lan Hua is under much more pressure.
Among the enemies are many agile creatures, making it difficult for Lan Hua to create distance and continue using her sniping skills.
With a flash, the Yuehua Bow split in two, transforming into two curved blades.
Lan Hua attacked with both hands, charging towards the numerous powerful figures.
Lan Hua didn't know how long the battle had lasted. She felt numb, and her twin swords moved almost habitually until her energy was almost exhausted.
"retreat!"
Lan Hua gathered her last bit of Yuan Power and used the Heaven-Opening Strike to force back the group of powerful figures who were rushing towards her. Then, she flashed and retreated into the passage.
Inside the space, Baxia's spiritual energy surged wildly as he struggled to recover his Yuan Power.
Lan Hua plopped down and began circulating the Yin-Yang Heavenly Technique, frantically absorbing spiritual energy.
When Zi Yue saw that Lan Hua had returned safely, her heart calmed down a little. She took out a fine handkerchief and wiped the sweat from Lan Hua's forehead.
Several days later, Lan Hua finally recovered her Yuan Qi and, after sensing her surroundings, discovered that her cultivation had made a slight improvement.
Lan Hua exclaimed with delight, "Cultivating during battle really has miraculous effects!"
Zi Yue nodded with a smile and said, "Your two dantians are dry and completely empty. This is equivalent to the water in a pond being drained and even expanding a little."
When it comes to absorbing elemental energy again, it can naturally hold more!
Baxia had already finished recuperating and was waiting for Lan Hua. He said, "Brother Hua, stop dawdling and keep killing!"
Lan Hua was speechless. It turned out that this dragon prince was even more anxious than she was.
The two crossed the passage and continued their battle.
Despite facing numerous enemies, Lan Hua and Ba Xia cooperated well, and although they encountered several dangerous situations, they escaped unscathed each time.
Lan Hua and the other person fought like this for countless years, and their Yuan energy was exhausted countless times.
During this period, not only did his cultivation level increase significantly, but his combat experience also became richer.
However, the enemy's strength also increased, from the initial stage of the Xuan rank to the middle stage, and then to the late stage.
Killing the enemy is becoming increasingly difficult.
This day.
After Lan Hua and his companion killed the last powerful figure, more than ten Xuan-rank beings surged into the space again.
Baxia was already used to it, and wouldn't care even if there were twenty more.
Use all your strength and kill.
However, Lan Hua was stunned, staring intently at two of the creatures.
Baxia was about to make a move when he saw Lan Hua standing still and asked, "Brother Hua, what's wrong?"
Lan Hua pointed ahead and said in a deep voice, "I've seen those two powerful figures before!"
One of them was a huge strange beast, which looked like a giant lizard, but upon closer inspection it resembled a crocodile. Its body was covered with scales and its size exceeded one hundred feet.
If it's not Taotie, then who is it?
The other one was a humanoid creature with dark skin and two red horns on its head.
This creature is exactly the same as the emperor's corpse sealed beneath the underground palace of the Pill God Temple!
"How could this be? Why would these creatures appear in the River of Separation?" Lan Hua murmured.
Baxia sensed something was wrong; the usually decisive Lan Hua was definitely not like this.
"Brother Hua, is there something wrong with those two creatures?"
Just as Lan Hua was about to reply, the other party launched a full-scale attack, showing no emotion whatsoever.
After firing several arrows and forcing back several powerful figures, Lan Hua then said:
"Brother Ba, didn't I tell you before that there's a second level to the Heavenly Realm?"
"good!"
Baxia swung its sharp claws repeatedly, forcing the two powerful figures back.
"The two beings I just mentioned do not exist in the Heavenly Realm; they only exist in the second layer of the Heavenly Realm!"
Baxia exclaimed in alarm, realizing the seriousness of the situation.
Where did the beings on the second level of the Heavenly Realm come from? Why attack them? And why did they appear in the River of Separation? These questions need to be explained.
"Brother Hua, let's go back and ask that old man!"
"good!"
After retreating back into the passage, Lan Hua did not see Xiao Wubian. Baxia let out a dragon roar, summoning Xiao Wubian out.
The latter was still holding a snow ginseng fruit in his hand, chewing it slowly.
Zi Yue was also standing to the side, her cherry-like lips moving slightly, clearly also eating the fairy fruit.
Normally, Lan Hua would have rushed over and snatched the fairy fruit.
But this time, he didn't.
"Hmm? You all have abundant Yuan energy, why did you come out so quickly this time?" Zi Yue asked.
Xiao Wubian didn't speak, and stuffed the last bit of the immortal fruit into his mouth.
Lan Hua bowed respectfully and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "Senior, where do the creatures fighting us come from, and why are they attacking us?"
"Please tell the truth, senior!"
Xiao Wubian snorted, "Didn't I already say, no need to ask, just kill them? Why be so hesitant!"
Lan Hua clasped his hands in a fist salute again and said, "Just now, I discovered that there were two powerful individuals from the second level of the Heavenly Domain!"
"What?"
Zi Yue exclaimed in surprise and asked, "Xiao Hua Zi, are you sure?"
"I can't be mistaken!"
Xiao Wubian chuckled and said, "Good lad, you actually know the origins of those creatures, you've got some skills!"
Changing the subject, "That's right, those powerful figures all come from the second level of the Heavenly Domain, so you should be able to guess where the River of Separation leads!"
Even the most foolish among them knew the answer at this point.
Zi Yue slowly said, "Is the River of Separation connected to the second level of the Heavenly Realm?"
Xiao Wubian nodded slightly, "To be precise, the River of Separation flows through the second layer of the Heavenly Domain, and these beings enter the River of Separation space from the second layer of the river!"
Lan Hua thought to herself, "As expected," and then said, "So, behind this passage lies the location of the second level of the Heavenly Domain."
And the space we are in now flows through the celestial realm, is it like this?
Xiao Wubian revealed a hint of approval.
"That's right, the River of Separation actually flows through the edge of the Heavenly Domain, which is the depths of the Desolate Heaven!"
Zi Yue's pretty face changed slightly, and she asked in surprise, "Is the River of Separation really this long?"
Xiao Wubian laughed and said, "The wonders of the River of Separation are beyond your comprehension. This river is boundless and is the most mysterious place in the world!"
Lan Hua didn't want to know how mysterious the River of Separation was for the time being; she only wanted to know what was happening to the beings on the second level of the Heavenly Realm.
"Senior, why are those creatures attacking us?"
