Wang Hao was quite satisfied with this. Before coming to the River Styx, he never expected that he would be able to cultivate the four sword waves to the minor completion level in such a short time.
Having reached the minor completion stage, the sword wave's power increased several times over. Moreover, after refining the three-colored snake gall, Wang Hao felt that his martial arts cultivation had improved considerably, and he was already very close to the Great Perfection of the Earth Realm.
Unfortunately, his cultivation level is currently too difficult to improve. Using the Primordial Chaos Green Lotus as his Dao foundation means that his cultivation will improve much slower than that of ordinary people.
Of course, if he could activate the immortal veins and time-based immortal array beneath the Moon Ascension Platform, his cultivation would reach a terrifying level in a short period of time.
As his martial arts cultivation improved, even his eyesight, hearing, and mental strength also improved slightly. His five senses became more acute, and the whole world became clearer.
At midnight, Wang Hao suddenly woke up from his cultivation. His ears twitched slightly, and he muttered, "I'm surrounded. Which force is it that has been tracking me all this time?"
He could already hear the other party's footsteps, breathing, and even heartbeats. Although the enemy was still far away, Wang Hao already knew the group's whereabouts perfectly.
The enemies lurking in the darkness include several with formidable cultivation levels, even surpassing Wang Hao's current strength. Only by unleashing all their trump cards can they be defeated.
As the formidable enemy drew closer, Wang Hao remained remarkably calm, picking up branches from the ground and adding firewood to the fire.
"Slap! Slap!"
The firewood in the bonfire crackled softly, scattering sparks and flickering flames, like spirits in the night.
"rustle!"
A foot below the surface, a long metal whip covered in sharp barbs, like a metal snake, surged forward rapidly, rushing toward Wang Hao.
Just three meters away from Wang Hao, the metal whip burst forth from the ground with a "whoosh," carrying barbs that spun continuously, wrapping around his neck.
The tip of the metal whip was a three-inch-long spike that emitted a purple glow, clearly indicating that it was coated with a potent poison.
Wang Hao's lips curled into a smile. He grabbed a tree branch, held it between two fingers, and released pale yellow spiritual energy from his fingertips, completely enveloping the branch before striking the metal whip.
"bite!"
The tree branch, brimming with spiritual energy, struck the metal whip precisely four feet away, dispersing the true energy contained within it.
A moment later, the long metal whip flew up again, making a "whoosh" sound, and struck Wang Hao's back.
At the same time, the owner of the metal whip appeared and flew out of the darkness.
She was a woman who looked to be almost thirty years old. She was wearing golden armor that tightly covered her chest and hips, but revealed her slender, snow-white waist and legs.
She let out a delicate shout, like a phantom, constantly lashing out with her metal whip, displaying a set of exquisite whip techniques that completely enveloped Wang Hao within the range of her whip.
The entire valley was filled with constantly dancing golden light, which was particularly dazzling in the darkness of the night.
However, Wang Hao sat cross-legged on the ground, appearing very carefree and relaxed, constantly striking out with tree branches, each time accurately deflecting the metal whip.
"call out!"
Suddenly, a flaming arrow, carrying a phoenix's tail, flew out from the darkness in the distance. In the blink of an eye, the flaming arrow traversed more than ten miles, flew into the valley, and struck Wang Hao's forehead with unerring accuracy.
To shoot an arrow more than ten miles away and still maintain its power without diminishing it, the opponent must be a top-notch archery master. Not only is his arm strength amazing, but his eyesight is also unmatched by ordinary martial artists.
Wang Hao's eyes darkened, and he immediately grabbed the hilt of the Yin-Yang Profound Iron Sword Embryo.
"Whoosh!"
The sword embryo suddenly slashed out, leaving a dazzling sword light that formed a crescent-shaped sword aura more than ten meters in diameter in mid-air.
"boom!"
The flaming arrow carrying the phoenix's tail collided with the sword energy, producing a loud bang that shook the spiritual energy throughout the valley violently.
The phoenix feather arrow immediately exploded, turning into a large rain of fire that splashed in all directions. The woman holding the metal whip immediately retreated to avoid the impact of the fire rain.
The fiery rain naturally flew towards Wang Hao as well.
However, when it was still a meter away from Wang Hao, it was blocked by a layer of spiritual energy, so all the fire rain fell to the ground and turned into grains of iron sand.
"Whoosh!"
A man holding a large crimson bow and a quiver of arrows emerged from the darkness like a giant bird.
The man looked extremely burly, with arms as thick as Wang Hao's thighs, and muscles that looked like red-hot iron blocks.
"Bang!"
Another loud bang rang out in the air, shaking the entire valley and knocking almost all the leaves off the trees.
That was the sonic boom from when the Phoenix Feather Arrow was fired. Because the speed of the Phoenix Feather Arrow exceeded the speed of sound, the arrow arrived first, and the sound followed.
The fact that he could shoot an arrow at supersonic speeds demonstrates the man's exceptional archery skills and strength. With his skill, he could probably kill an enemy from tens of miles away.
Wang Hao glanced at them and suddenly asked, "Are you from the Li family?"
The woman wielding a long metal whip, her ample bosom prominent, her eyes cold, said in a deep voice, "We are members of the Red Moon Organization, and I am Liu Suyun, the woman of the Red Moon Patriarch."
Wang Hao raised an eyebrow, added more firewood to the fire, his expression completely natural. He then looked at the other person and asked, "So you're also a member of the Red Moon Organization?"
"I didn't expect that Ancestor Red Moon would value me so much. Not only did he send out his own woman, but he also sent out a martial arts legend at the Heavenly Realm."
Seeing that Wang Hao was still so calm even after knowing their identities, the two couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could it be that the Heavenly Realm has lost its power now, and he is not even afraid of a Foundation Establishment Realm kid?
Wang Hao said indifferently, "Although you two are both martial arts legends of the Heavenly Realm, with your strength, it won't be easy for you to kill me. Anyone else, show yourself!"
"Swish!"
In the darkness, figures appeared again, rushing into the valley at great speed. They were Li Lin, the former head steward of the Li family, and Liu Shi Si, the instructor who trained the secret guards.
This man was even more robust than Yang Di, the previous expert in archery from the Heavenly Realm. He carried a broad, heavy sword as if it were a huge metal door.
Because his sword was so heavy, it caused his feet to sink slightly into the ground.
Besides Liu Suyun, Yang Di, Li Lin, and the four Liu brothers, there seemed to be two more figures standing in the darkness in the distance, followed by a group of soldiers riding barbarian elephants.
The elephants were already giant beasts, each with a massive body nearly ten meters tall. The heavily armored soldiers standing on the elephants' backs, wielding long spears, looked like black ghost knights.
The entire valley had become a valley of death, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
