"A bunch of fake Jindan dare to be so arrogant."

Xiao Yan sneered and stood there with his arms folded.

The powerful pressure was released instantly, and the terrifying spiritual energy wave knocked down all the evil cultivators who rushed up. They vomited blood and fell to the ground.

Fan Li behind him was not affected at all, not even a hair of his moved.

Xiao Yan tilted his head and smiled mischievously: "Children, this is the true peak of the Golden Core."

Everyone present changed color.

The peak of golden elixir!

Xiao Yan is actually at the peak of the Golden Core stage!

This means that he had deliberately suppressed his strength before!

As soon as Xiao Yan took action, he directly dealt with all the evil cultivators.

Song Xixi lowered her eyes and bit her lip, her eyes full of unwillingness.

Just a little bit... just a little bit, and she would see Fan Li killed on the spot!

Damn it, why is Fan Li always so lucky!

When Xiao Yan appeared, Song Xixi knew that she would never have a chance to get the spiritual liquid. She was so angry that she had to give up the idea.

Xiao Yan didn't take this group of evil cultivators seriously at all. After dealing with them, he put away his frivolous smile, looked at the Tianji Sect disciples with a serious face, and said:

"The beast tide is coming, leave here quickly."

Zhou Ming was shocked: "What?!" It was a beast tide!

Ye Wushuang took a healing pill and stopped vomiting blood, but his face was still extremely pale.

Hearing the word "beast tide", she was surprised and asked, "Why is there a beast tide in the secret realm?"

The shaking became more severe and the cave seemed to be collapsing.

Xiao Yan shook his head: "I don't know."

Zhou Ming immediately thought of the Tianji Sect disciples who were still outside, and hurriedly contacted Wang Fa using the sound transmission jade slip.

Coincidentally, just as he took out the jade slip, Wang Fa was also looking for them.

"Big Brother, Third Sister, where have you been? Damn it! The beast tide is coming!"

The jade slips flashed wildly, and Wang Fa's voice was roared, and the anxious voice echoed throughout the cave.

Zhou Ming remained calm and responded, "We are fine, Junior Brother Wang, you are the leader now, listen carefully, you have to lead all the disciples away from the beast tide and protect them well, and don't leave anyone behind."

After a while, Wang Fa's voice became much calmer.

"Okay, I understand, Big Brother. What about you? Where do we meet?"

Zhou Ming looked at Su Muqing, asking for his opinion with his eyes.

Su Muqing said, "Let's go to Wangyue Valley. There is a big canyon there where we can hide from the beast tide."

Wang Fa heard Su Muqing's voice and responded, "Okay, I'll take my disciples there right away, you guys take care!"

The sound transmission jade slip went dark.

Xiao Yan said to them: "I will stay here, you guys go quickly."

He could see that Fan Li was not in an ordinary state of cultivation. If he guessed correctly, Fan Li was about to break through.

Every breakthrough for a cultivator is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this one, you don’t know how long you will have to wait for the next breakthrough.

The more it is at this time, the more we must not interrupt her, otherwise it will be more than just a simple matter of wasting all our efforts.

In addition to Fan Li, the little spirit beast beside her is also breaking through. Compared with cultivators, the breakthrough of spirit beasts is more rare.

I just don’t know whether Fan Li has broken through to the peak of foundation building or golden elixir.

If he were in their shoes, he would sincerely envy such an opportunity.

Xiao Yan did not tell anyone about his discovery.

Let this little girl secretly surprise them.

With the beast tide coming, this cave will collapse sooner or later. They all know that now is not the time to hesitate.

However, Zhou Ming was not confident in handing Fan Li over to an outsider, especially this Xiao Yan, whose origins were unknown and who exuded a mysterious and dangerous aura, and there were too many uncertainties.

But Ye Wushuang was injured again, and she had to be sent to a safe place as soon as possible.

Zhou Ming was a little confused about the decision.

At this time, Su Muqing's voice came from behind, and he urged: "Junior Brother Zhou, what are you still hesitating about? Let's go!"

Zhou Ming was slightly stunned, and turned around to see Su Muqing already standing in the passage, holding his junior sister in his arms, ready to run away at any time.

Zhou Ming couldn't believe it.

As Fan Li's senior brother, Su Muqing wasn't worried at all that Fan Li would die in the beast tide!

"You..." Zhou Ming was about to say the words of reprimand, but swallowed them back.

He realized that he was not in a position to blame Su Muqing.

Song Xixi clutched the man's clothes in fear and urged anxiously, "Brother Zhou, Sister Ye, it's not safe here, let's leave quickly. Sister Seven is protected by Fellow Daoist Xiao, so she will be fine!"

Su Muqing saw Zhou Ming still standing there and couldn't help but frowning.

He didn't understand what Zhou Ming was still hesitating about. For the safety of his junior sister, he didn't plan to wait for them.

He injected spiritual energy into his feet, and without looking back, he disappeared into the cave with his junior sister in his arms.

Left without any regrets.

For the first time, Zhou Ming and Ye Wushuang realized so clearly how dire Fan Li's situation was at Xuanji Peak. Even if Fan Li was dying now, Su Muqing wouldn't be moved at all!

Ye Wushuang said, "You two bastards."

This time Zhou Ming did not blame her for being impolite.

Xiao Yan: "Alright, alright, you guys should leave too. Don't worry, as long as I'm alive, I will make sure she's safe."

Zhou Ming looked at him seriously and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Xiao. This is my ID card. I am Zhou Ming, the eldest disciple of Xiaoyao Sanren of Tianji Sect. Brother Xiao is willing to help. I, Zhou Ming, will definitely reward you handsomely in the future!"

Xiao Yan generously took the jade token from his hand and said with a smile, "Okay."

"I hope Brother Xiao will keep his word."

Zhou Ming took one last deep look at Fan Li, then left with Ye Wushuang.

Xiao Yan's strength is obvious to all. With him by Fan Li's side, Zhou Ming and Ye Wushuang can feel much more at ease.

......

After exiting the cave, they rushed all the way towards Wangyue Valley.

Only when they came outside did they realize the seriousness of the situation.

Strong winds and heat waves swept in, uprooting trees, raising dust and blurring vision in the distance.

The beast tide has reached the perimeter of the secret realm. Thunderous sounds can be heard from afar, and the earth seems to be cracking.

Ye Wushuang patted Zhou Ming on the back and shouted in horror: "Brother, what is that behind?!"

Zhou Ming carried her on his back and stopped.

His forehead was covered in sweat and his breath was hot.

He has reached the Golden Core stage of cultivation and can see scenes dozens of miles away.

I saw flames rising into the sky in the distance. At first glance, it looked like the whole mountain was on fire, but the two balls of flame hanging in the air seemed to be wrong.

Zhou Ming narrowed his eyes, trying to discern what the fire was from the gray wind.

Ye Wushuang said anxiously: "Brother, why is it getting closer and closer..."

Zhou Ming's pupils suddenly shrank and he couldn't help feeling frightened.

That wasn't a mountain at all, it was clearly the demon king in the secret realm! And those two burning flames were the demon king's eyes!

The Fire Demon King came slowly, looking down on all living beings, and the breath of death enveloped the entire secret realm.

Zhou Ming didn’t even bother to answer Ye Wushuang’s question. He mobilized all the spiritual power in his body and ran away for his life!

Even if the cultivators in the secret realm joined forces, they could not withstand the attack of the demon king.

Because the demon king’s strength has reached the Nascent Soul stage!

What worries Zhou Ming even more now is that the appearance of the Demon King may cause the collapse of the secret realm.

They couldn't leave, because once the secret realm collapsed, all the monks would be buried there.

Zhou Ming could only pray in his heart that the demon king just came out for a walk and would go back after the walk.

etc.

Zhou Ming suddenly realized something.

Junior Sister Fan is still in the cave. If the Demon King moves in the direction where Fan Li is, that would be terrible!

That Fire Elephant Demon King could crush the cave with one kick. Xiao Yan would definitely not be able to resist such a powerful demon with the strength of a Nascent Soul!

Zhou Ming's right eyelid twitched wildly.

The thing Zhou Ming least wanted to see happened.

The Fire Demon King turned his head and walked straight towards the cave.

Ye Wushuang also saw it and said in panic: "Brother! That big beast went to Xiao Lizi's place! What should we do!"

Zhou Ming pondered and said nothing.

After a moment, he seemed to have made a major decision.

He put Ye Wushuang down.

"Third Junior Sister, Moon-Watching Valley is just ahead. Go quickly. I'll ask Second Junior Brother to pick you up."

Ye Wushuang stood still: "No, what do you mean?"

Zhou Ming: "I'll go and lure away the demon king."

Ye Wushuang blurted out: "No!"

Zhou Ming still had that wooden face, and said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, I know what to do."

"You have no sense of propriety. Who do you think you are? Why do you always want to be a hero? What a bad habit you have!"

"But......"

"No buts, just shut up!"

Ye Wushuang stubbornly grabbed his arm and wanted to drag him to Wangyue Valley.

Ye Wushuang's eyes were red, and when he turned around, his face was already filled with tears.

She was also worried about Fan Li, but Zhou Ming was her senior brother, and she would never let her senior brother risk his life.

I'm sorry, little pear, you must live.

The other side.

Song Xixi stood on the Moon-Watching Valley, watching the Demon King gradually approaching where Fan Li was, with a look of gloating on her face.

"Seventh Senior Sister, I hope I can still see your whole body."
