Outside the cave.
A burly man with thick, fiery red hair like a lion's mane, bare-chested and muscular, was relentlessly punching the defensive barrier of the cave's formation.
This burly man was known as the Fire Lion King in the Ten Thousand Mountains, and his true form was a raging crimson lion.
Huff! Huff!
Just as the Fire Lion King was launching its attack, two more transformed demons broke through the air and arrived. One of them had vertical pupils and was covered with dark blue scales. He was called the Azure Dragon King, whose true form was a blue-blooded azure dragon. The other had eyes like a hawk and was covered with lightning patterns. He was called the Thunder Falcon King, whose true form was a lightning falcon.
"Fire Lion, you've found the person but haven't summoned us. Are you trying to hog the spoils?"
Thunder Falcon King's voice was sharp as he looked at Fire Lion King with great displeasure.
"That's so unfair! We found her together, and we agreed to each have a share, but you're trying to eat her all by yourself!"
The Azure Dragon King also had some complaints.
"Hmph, you don't want to eat it all by yourself? This woman possesses a Saint-level body and her cultivation is extremely high. If we can devour her whole, any one of us can easily advance in cultivation. But if we divide her into three parts, whether we can advance in cultivation after eating her is another matter."
The Fire Lion King had already stopped and glanced at the two demons, snorting coldly.
Upon hearing this, the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Falcon King grinned. What they said made sense. Who wouldn't want to have it all to themselves? They were both at the peak of the Transformation Realm, just one step away from advancing. Whoever ate this woman alone would be guaranteed to advance, and their bloodline power would also increase greatly under the nourishment of her precious body, gaining even greater potential for advancement. Who would be willing to share such benefits with other demons?
However, it was the Fire Lion King who found the woman first. If they hadn't followed the Fire Lion King's aura, they wouldn't have been able to find her location at all. So, they couldn't let the Fire Lion King enjoy the opportunity all to himself.
"Fire Lion, we agreed that whoever finds her first will share her with the other two. Don't go back on your word."
The Azure Dragon King's tone was subtly unfriendly.
"You found the person first, so according to the rules you should get 40%, and Lao Jiao and I should each take 30%. That's not unreasonable, is it?"
Thunder Falcon King spoke sharply, its falcon eyes, fixed on Fire Lion King, also revealing a threatening intent.
"Sure, but you'll have to give me some other benefits afterwards."
The Fire Lion King bargained, saying that although he wanted to have the food all to himself, he didn't really expect to be able to. After all, these two demons were not easy to deal with, and if they joined forces to deal with him, he would not be able to keep this opportunity.
"Okay, whatever you say."
"I will grant your request."
Both Thunder Falcon King and Azure Dragon King readily agreed.
"Then let's stop talking nonsense and break this barrier together, lest that woman destroy her own body."
After saying this, the three great demons immediately attacked together, bombarding the protective shield of the formation.
Inside the cave.
Sensing that the formation was on the verge of collapse, An Yuxi said urgently, "Don't be stubborn. You're only at the first level of the Spirit King realm. How can you hold out until our sect's reinforcements arrive? You'd better listen to me, or we'll both die!"
"Please try not to get in my way from now on."
Chi Yuan ignored the advice. In this life-or-death situation, he couldn't care less about anything else. He forcibly picked An Yuxi up and, in the instant the formation broke, he used the Xingzi Secret Technique, transforming into a golden light while holding An Yuxi, and sped past the three great demons.
"How dare you!"
"Chase!"
"He's just a mere Spirit King; he can't escape!"
The three great demons immediately gave chase to the golden light at top speed.
On the other side.
The moment he escaped the cave, Chi Yuan unleashed the full power of the "Travel" technique he had mastered. Even with someone in his arms, his speed reached the level of an ordinary mid-level Spirit Master.
But Chi Yuan knew that this was far from enough. The opponents were three peak Spirit Sect masters, and his speed was simply not enough. Right now, his only chance to help An Yuxi escape the pursuit was to combine his understanding of spatial power with the Xingzi Secret Technique to further increase his speed.
At that moment, Chi Yuan's mind raced, integrating his understanding of spatial power, which he had gained from his previous spatial traversal, into the Xingzi Secret Technique.
laugh!
The moment the two combined, Chi Yuan's speed suddenly surged. With a single step into the void, he appeared several miles away as if by teleportation, his speed so fast that his figure was no longer visible.
"So fast!"
"How can this kid be so fast?"
"He's only a first-tier Spirit King, yet his speed surpasses mine?!"
The three great demons chasing behind were shocked. They never expected that a Spirit King could unleash a speed comparable to their peak Spirit Sect level. This was too outrageous!
"This speed... how is that possible?"
An Yuxi, lying in Chi Yuan's arms, was utterly shocked. It was too fast. Chi Yuan's speed had shattered her understanding. Even she might not be able to outrun Chi Yuan!
Is Chi Yuan really only at the first level of the Spirit King realm? How could he have reached such a high level of cultivation?
An Yuxi was deeply shocked.
"The power of space can indeed bring about a qualitative change in speed!"
A glint flashed in Chi Yuan's eyes. After he integrated his understanding of spatial power into the Xingzi Secret, he touched upon a trace of the profound meaning of spatial power. Combining it with the Xingzi Secret not only instantly boosted his speed to a new level, but also deepened his understanding of the Xingzi Secret, far exceeding the superficial understanding he had previously grasped.
However, this combination placed too much strain on him. In just a few breaths, it consumed more than half of his soul power, and his spiritual power was also greatly depleted. He could manage using the Word Movement Secret alone, but as soon as he used the power of space, a large proportion of his spiritual power disappeared from his dantian, making it impossible to use it continuously.
Left with no other choice, Chi Yuan had to slow down.
"Floating Wind, open your mouth."
Seeing the predicament Chi Yuan was facing, An Yuxi took out a high-grade fifth-rank recovery pill, held it to Chi Yuan's lips, and said.
