"It’s that mountain-moving rat!"
"Damn thing, it’s really causing a lot of trouble!" Song Ping’an froze for a mont, then cursed under his breath.
"Let’s go." Song Changming shook his head, said nothing, and the group left once again.
Seemingly confirming what Li Jinyu said, not far away on an ancient road, the ground had collapsed into a large hole.
Undoubtedly, this was left by the mountain-moving rat, known for its burrowing skills, which they had all witnessed before.
"Following this path should lead to a human race town," Li Jinyu continued.
Song Changming urged the two dogs to speed up and hurried along the ancient road.
The ancient road twisted and turned, gradually presenting more diverging paths leading in different directions.
On the widest path, a cavalry unit escorted several carriages forward.
The cavalry team wore white cloud pattern armor and rode Qilin horses, each with horns protruding from their foreheads.
With swords at their waists and guns in their hands, they seed imposing, each possessing formidable combat prowess!
The leader, a towering middle-aged man, sat on his Qilin horse, standing nearly three ters tall, like a mighty iron tower.
His skin, exposed outside the armor, was covered with rough pores and bushy body hair, resembling a brown bear dressed in human race attire if not closely observed...
With a cold face, his sharp eyes swept around, suddenly holding up his hand.
The team halted imdiately.
"On alert," Chu Wantong said in a low voice, with a hint of murderous intent.
The team instantly raised their guns, turning their mounts towards the surroundings.
The next mont, a volley of long needles shot out from the wooded hills on both sides, piercing the air.
"Enemy attack!"
The cavalry shouted, waving their long spears, and waves of powerful inner qi swept out, knocking down all incoming long needles.
At this point, dozens of agile and ghostly figures suddenly erged from the woods, dashing straight toward the carriages.
"General! It’s the Flower Raccoon from the Thousand of forest!" a cavalry soldier shouted.
"Kill!" Chu Wantong snorted coldly, seemingly unsurprised, raised his long spear and ordered a fierce counterattack against the attackers.
In an instant, inner qi flowed wildly, and various spear techniques and sword techniques unfolded, confronting the attacking enemies!
On a cliff top not far from the ancient road, stood four people and two dogs.
"Those must be the Demon Race you ntioned, sir!" Song Ping’an exclaid lowly as he looked at the battlefield below.
"Hmm," Song Changming nodded, his attention also focused on those ghostly figures erging from the trees.
With his insight, he clearly saw the appearance of these figures.
Their limbs and torsos largely resembled humans, with slender and graceful physiques, both male and female.
The n were handso, the won were stunning.
Unlike humans, they had beast ears on their heads, sharp rows of teeth, and their bodies were covered in demon race fur.
With sharp claws extending from their hands, their feet were more like the large paws of demon beasts, complete with pads.
Undoubtedly, these were shape-shifted demons!
"Flower Raccoon..." he also heard the previous shout from a human race knight.
This was evidently the identity of these demon race mbers.
Soon, the human race knights were fiercely engaging with those demons, and the battle was intensely vivid.
Each knight possessed inner qi cultivation, and the leader, as burly as a brown bear, was a powerhouse in the Innate Realm.
The innate qi aura he unleashed was enough to intimidate those approaching ghostly demons.
It was his presence that acted like a Stabilizing Needle, protecting the carriages within his team.
"That person’s strength is formidable!" Su Qingqing exclaid as she watched the leader holding his ground against ten opponents.
After all, he was an innate powerhouse, and they had only experienced the might of innate qi aura from Song Changming before. Seeing this leader, the second innate powerhouse they had encountered, it was normal to be amazed by his strength.
"Indeed, very strong," Song Changming nodded.
He watched closely as the leader’s innate qi aura, disregarding the prowess and power of martial techniques, purely in intensity and depth, was far superior to his own.
It was certain he wasn’t soone who had just entered the Innate Realm!
"At least two paths of Earth Martial Vein must have been activated..." Song Changming estimated in his heart.
Among the attacking demon race group, many had the Innate Level strength, and only they could contend against the leader’s innate qi aura.
"Sir, should we assist?" Su Qingqing spoke at this mont.
During her years in Da Lai, she frequently intervened in injustice during her outside training, honing her cultivation and strength by consistently challenging strong enemies.
Now, with a chance to confront the legendary demon race, she was imdiately tempted.
Song Changming wasn’t in a rush, turning to Li Jinyu beside him, he asked, "Brother Jin Yu, what do you think?"
Having known each other for years, he understood Li Jinyu’s abilities. Although his powers to predict past and future had limitations in the Ancient Abyss Country, he still possessed unaffected abilities.
His opinions were quite significant to Song Changming.
Li Jinyu, on the other side, rubbed his nose and smooth chin, looking at the carriages below, and slowly said.
"The person in the carriage exudes noble aura, deserving of a duke, with grand righteousness, not a villain, worthy of rescue."
Evidently, through observing aura, Li Jinyu judged the group worth saving, implying no harm for Song Changming.
Song Changming nodded but didn’t rush to act.
The leader with innate cultivation was the strongest at the scene, not only stabilizing the situation but also capable of counterattacks.
At this rate, they didn’t need to intervene for rescue, as the escorting cavalry and leader could handle the demon race assault crisis.
However, Li Jinyu chuckled, holding a differing view.
The next mont, the earth began to tremble violently.
The familiar scene of ground collapse reappeared, and the mountain-moving rat erged from the ground at this critical mont.
The collapsed area was precisely beneath the carriages.
Seeing the carriages about to plunge into the ground pit, covered by stones and earth.
Chu Wantong’s dark face showed shock, losing composure for the first ti.
He abruptly reached out, activating his innate qi aura, and managed to hold up the descending carriages.
Yet, his opponent wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip.
"Chu Wantong, die for !"
A demon race mber laughed shrilly, slashing down with claws, directly smashing the armor on the leader’s back, leaving several deep bloody claw marks showing bone!
"He’s wounded!"
The remaining demons roared with excitent, aggressively pouncing, aiming to kill Chu Wantong.
Even if they couldn’t finish off those in the carriage, killing Chu Wantong would still be a gain!
"Die for !" Chu Wantong, enraged, glared with his large eyes, gripping the demon who wounded him.
However, before Chu Wantong could exert force, the demon decisively shed one of its arms, escaping and preserving life.
Other demons joined the fray, preventing Chu Wantong from sustaining his innate qi aura.
The carriages began to descend again, causing screams from inside.
Just as the carriages seed lost, another purple-gold innate qi aura appeared, supporting the carriages and placing them safely away from the collapse.
In a critical mont, Song Changming intervened, descending swiftly.
After rescuing those inside the carriages, he turned his attention to the wounded leader and the hole-digging mountain-moving rat.
At this mont, its controlled rocks were causing several knights to cough up blood.
Moreover, those rocks attached themselves like plague, forming ball-like teorites enclosing the knights, leaving their fate uncertain.
Song Changming unleashed his innate qi aura again, shattering the rocks and saving the knights within.
Then, he transford into a stream of light, appearing before the mountain-moving rat with cold eyes, suddenly drawing and slashing with his sword.
Previously, it managed to escape, but this ti, he didn’t intend to let it get away!
