A master of the Heavenly Realm, a legend in martial arts, died just like that, and died with great resentment. So, after the flame of her life was extinguished, her eyes remained fixed on the sky, her eyelids still open.
"Whoosh!"
After Wang Hao killed the last barbarian elephant soldier with his sword, he immediately rushed over, took out a healing pill, handed it to Han Shuo, and hurriedly said, "Take this quickly."
The exchange between Han Shuo and Liu Su just now happened in the blink of an eye. By the time Wang Hao arrived, Liu Su had already died under Han Shuo's sword.
Han Shuo glanced at the pills, shook his head, and said, "I don't need healing. The cultivation method I practice is quite special. The more serious the injury, the faster my martial arts cultivation will improve."
Wang Hao was somewhat surprised. He had heard of similar techniques before, but he never expected that someone would actually practice them.
Han Shuo clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood, but he still insisted on not taking any healing pills. Instead, he used his hands to support himself on the ground and resolutely stood up.
Even if one is injured by this technique, one cannot deliberately seek medical treatment; one must rely on the physical body and internal energy to heal on their own. Only in this way can one's cultivation level increase.
This is a tremendous test of a martial artist's willpower! A timid and cowardly person cannot even succeed in cultivating the first level, let alone cultivate the technique to the Great Perfection.
Han Shuo bid a hasty farewell to Wang Hao, and dragged his heavily injured body away quickly, returning to the black market.
Wang Hao, on the other hand, headed in another direction, continuing his journey to the City of Death.
Half an hour later, Yinshan, Li Xu, and Liu Shi arrived with fifty barbarian elephant soldiers, and a thick aura of blood permeated the forest.
Nearby, some savage beasts, attracted by the smell of blood, were gnawing on the corpses. Fifty savage elephant soldiers rushed out and killed all the beasts that were eating the corpses.
"A small squad of the barbarian elephant army has been completely wiped out!" Liu Shisi gripped his heavy sword tightly, his eyes revealing a cold and angry expression.
"Sister-in-law Liu Suyun's body is here." A barbarian soldier searched the forest and found Liu Suyun lying in a pool of blood.
Li Xu said with a sinister look in his eyes, "Wang Hao is too cunning, Senior Yinshan, we must avenge our sister-in-law!"
Yinshan roared, and a powerful gust of wind burst from his mouth, like a hurricane, shaking all the leaves in the forest to the ground, making a rustling sound as they flew through the air.
Within a radius of a thousand feet, all the trees became completely bare, without a single leaf in sight, and all the birds and beasts in the forest were also killed by the shock.
Liu Suyun was Yinshan's adopted daughter. At this moment, he was extremely saddened. Although they were not biological father and daughter, their relationship was better than that of biological father and daughter.
"Chase after him! You must catch Wang Hao! I want to personally tear him to pieces!" Yinshan roared.
The Styx River basin is the territory of ferocious water beasts and a forbidden land for humans.
In order to cleanse the River Styx, the human race built a city called the City of the Dead, only a hundred miles away from the dead section of the River Styx.
Here, armies from various factions are stationed, numbering in the millions. Almost every month, human soldiers pilot arrayed warships into the waters to wipe out ferocious beasts.
Every year, a large-scale battle is held, with ferocious beasts and human armies fighting fiercely, causing huge casualties on both sides.
Besides the army, many martial artists from various factions also came to the City of Death, hoping to hunt ferocious beasts and find treasures in the River Styx.
There are more cultivation treasures in the water than on land, and even finding just one can greatly improve a martial artist's cultivation level.
Because it is profitable, despite knowing that the River Styx is fraught with danger, a large number of warriors still flock to the City of Death every day to join the ranks of adventurers.
Some people did lose their lives, their bodies sinking to the bottom of the water, while others obtained cultivation treasures and became martial arts masters.
This is a place full of opportunities and dangers, where legend and death coexist.
When Wang Hao arrived at the City of Death, he saw high city walls, countless warships anchored in the harbor, and a constant stream of martial artists coming and going.
"I heard that Mei Shi'an dug up a blood coral in the River Styx and exchanged it for a lot of cultivation resources. He made a fortune."
"Another martial arts battle broke out in Caoshi Street. It is said that more than sixty people died, and blood flowed like a river. Among them were martial arts experts at the Earth Realm."
"This morning, the army of the City of Death dispatched thirteen warships into the River of Death, supposedly to hunt down the fourth-tier mid-level ferocious beast, the 'Mystic Frost Octopus.' I wonder if they will succeed?"
"Ten more beautiful and charming young women have arrived at the Vermilion Bird Tower. Tonight, their virginity will be auctioned off. I wonder who will be the first to win?"
Walking down the bustling street, Wang Hao heard all sorts of news: news of some kind of treasure appearing, news of some important figure arriving in the City of Death, and news of some powerful ferocious beast being born...
The City of Death is truly a place where all sorts of people mingle.
Suddenly, Wang Hao seemed to sense something, raised his head, and looked towards a restaurant in the distance, where he seemed to see a familiar figure.
"It was her."
Wang Hao narrowed his eyes, staring at the woman in purple standing on the third floor of an ancient building next to the street.
The woman in purple stood gracefully, with a beautiful face and a slender figure. She appeared delicate, but her martial arts cultivation was very high. Moreover, her five senses were sharp, and she seemed to have noticed that someone was watching her.
So she turned around and looked in the direction from which the gaze came, and saw Wang Hao standing in the middle of the street.
Xia Xiaoyi thought she was seeing things and quickly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, Wang Hao was still standing there, smiling slightly at her and nodding gently.
"How did he end up here?"
After a while, Xia Xiaoyi, wearing a purple veil, came down from the restaurant, walked through the crowd, found Wang Hao, and quickly pulled him into the restaurant.
The two entered a house, closed the doors and windows, and then she removed the purple veil from her face, revealing a beautiful face.
"Why are you here? The black market people in the City of Death all want to kill you."
Wang Hao calmly said, "The people from the black market came here not primarily to kill me, but mainly to follow Yin Yi to the underwater dragon palace, right?"
Xia Xiaoyi was slightly surprised and said, "You know this? Do you have informants in the black market?"
"Don't ask that. I was going to have Qiqi go to the Burning Lamp Academy to call you. Now it's perfect. I said before that you would have a part in the Underwater Dragon Palace. Since that's the case, then you can come with me."
Xia Xiaoyi rolled her eyes at him, then said seriously, "At least half of the experts in the black market have come to the banks of the River Styx, and people from the six major financial groups have also appeared in the City of Death."
Wang Hao laughed and said, "Your black market has caused such a commotion, and the six major financial groups have also shown up. They definitely don't have the energy to deal with me. Don't worry, I won't force my way in. I'll contact you when we go to the Dragon Palace."
