"Hmm? Is he heading for the central region?"
As Su Han changed direction toward the central region, Di Yuan, who was in pursuit, also sensed the shift.
Di Yuan's lips curled into a mocking smile, like a cat toying with a mouse. Little mouse, you can run to the ends of the earth, but you'll never escape the palm of my hand.
WHOOSH!
His figure flickered, transforming into a brilliant rainbow as he continued to follow the blood trail in pursuit of Su Han.
Di Yuan was fast, but Su Han and Zhang Xiaowan were closer to the central region. A day later, the pair arrived.
Gazing into the distance, they saw what appeared to be a semi-transparent barrier suspended in the air, clearly dividing the outer and central regions. Standing in the outer region, Su Han looked toward the central region ahead, where the sky was dark and the atmosphere heavy.
"There's no danger in this barrier; we can go straight in," Zhang Xiaowan said. Although it was also her first ti entering the Dragon Palace Ruins, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had an extensive collection of ancient texts and secrets, so she had co fully prepared.
Su Han nodded. The two of them quickly crossed the barrier and entered the central region.
However, as he crossed the barrier, Su Han felt a sudden jolt in his heart, as if he were being spied on. The sensation was fleeting, and when he tried to locate its source, it had vanished completely.
It wasn't an illusion. Soone was definitely spying on . Could it be one of Di Yuan's techniques? Or so other mysterious entity? Su Han's brow furrowed, but for the mont, he couldn't find the source of the prying eyes.
Upon stepping into the central region, he felt the Dragon's Might grow far more intense. It was more than twice as strong as in the outer region, creating a constant sense of oppression. Fortunately, his powerful Sacred Body was only minimally affected. Zhang Xiaowan, however, was a different story. Her delicate body seed to sink slightly, and her movents grew a little stiff, showing she was significantly affected.
"Don't worry, Little Susu. I know this place like the back of my hand. Co on, I'll show you around!" Zhang Xiaowan patted her flat chest with a worldly air, as if she had everything under control. But just as the words left her mouth, a Dragon Qi Demon Beast shaped like an elephant suddenly appeared.
The massive, thick-skinned elephant beast made the very earth tremble with its every step. Moreover, it actually possessed the power of the Seventh Layer of the Divine Power Realm. They had only just entered the central region and had already encountered such a creature. It was clear that the central region was far more terrifying than the outer one.
"Little Susu, here's your chance to shine. Go on, take it down!" Seeing the Dragon Qi Demon Beast, Zhang Xiaowan's brows furrowed. A headache was coming on; her specialty, the Sound Wave Demonic Skill, was least effective against Dragon Qi Demon Beasts, so she had to let Su Han handle it.
Su Han shot her an exasperated look before stepping forward to et the challenge. His Black Blade flashed like lightning, imbued with the Bloodthirsty Demonic Fla and the might of thunderbolts as he boldly engaged the elephant beast in combat.
This elephant beast was truly extraordinary. Not only was it more powerful, but its Spiritual Wisdom was also higher, and it even knew so combat techniques, causing Su Han a fair bit of trouble. But Su Han's Sacred Body was formidable. Aided by his Bloodthirsty Demonic Fla, which specialized in vanquishing flesh and blood, his Great Luo Golden Bone, and various secret techniques, he ultimately brought the massive beast crashing to the ground.
A wisp of Dragon Qi as thick as a finger flew from the beast's corpse and into Su Han's hand.
The Dragon Qi Demon Beasts in the central region were stronger, and the quality of the Dragon Qi they produced upon death was higher. Without hesitation, Su Han consud and refined the wisp of Dragon Qi. His aura instantly strengthened, bringing him ever closer to the Second Layer of the Divine Power Realm.
"Well done, Little Susu! Co on, big sister will take you out for so fun!" Zhang Xiaowan praised him with a pretentious, worldly air, as if the entire success was due to her wise leadership.
Su Han felt a little helpless but decided not to dwell on it.
"Soone is tracking you. They are less than a hundred miles away!" the Great Majestic Demon King suddenly spoke, having sensed Di Yuan's presence.
Su Han's eyes narrowed. He's fast. It seed he needed to set up the Nine Palaces Bagua Formation as soon as possible to deal with this nuisance. Otherwise, he would be constantly on the run, forced to guard against hidden attacks no matter where he went.
"I need to find a place with strong Yang Energy!" Su Han told Zhang Xiaowan his requirent, and the two began to search together.
Su Han's perception was sharp thanks to his Nine Heavens Eye, while Zhang Xiaowan had her own unique thods. Soon, the pair discovered a basin brimming with vibrant Yang Energy and inhabited by nurous Dragon Qi Demon Beasts.
"I need you to lure them away while I set up the Great Formation!"
There were seven or eight Dragon Qi Demon Beasts in the basin. Although Su Han could handle them if he went all out, Di Yuan was less than a hundred miles behind them, making every second precious.
"Sigh, since you saved my life, I'll reluctantly agree just this once. But afterward, you have to tell the story about you and Sister Tongyan." Dark lines appeared on Zhang Xiaowan's forehead as she faced the Dragon Qi Demon Beasts she dreaded most. However, she understood the threat Di Yuan posed and did not refuse.
Her Sound Wave Demonic Skill might not inflict much damage on the beasts, but as the Ninth Sequence of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, her strength was undeniable. Luring them all away would not be too difficult.
anwhile, Su Han quickly retrieved Array Plates from his Bronze Ring and began to sketch Formation Patterns. After his breakthrough to the Divine Power Realm, his Demonic Qi was far more abundant and his Divine Sense had improved significantly, so he could set up formations much faster than before.
One Array Plate after another took shape in his hands before he buried them in various locations throughout the basin. Previously, it would have taken him three days to complete the forty-nine Array Plates, but with his current strength, he finished in less than half a day.
He still had 70,000 Supre Grade Spirit Stones on hand. He took out another 10,000 and fed them into the Great Formation as its energy source.
"Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, out!" Reaching out, he summoned the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda. It appeared once more, gleaming and radiating a powerful Holy Might. Without hesitation, Su Han placed it at the heart of the formation, flawlessly rging the pagoda with the entire Great Formation.
"Divine thod: Thunderous Eight Trigrams!"
Su Han made his next move. Phantoms of the Eight Trigrams materialized between heaven and earth, transforming into a massive Bagua Furnace that perfectly overlaid the entire basin.
With that, the Nine Palaces Bagua Formation was set. It was even more powerful than the one he had used to ambush Xuan Song. After all, Su Han's strength had grown imnsely, and all his abilities were significantly enhanced. Consequently, even though it was the sa formation, its power upon activation would be far greater.
"Little Susu, are you done yet? My legs are about to break from all this running!" Zhang Xiaowan's breathless voice called out. She was being chased by the Dragon Qi Demon Beasts and looked quite disheveled.
"Everything is prepared," Su Han replied with a confident smile. "Now we just wait for the east wind."
To dispel the enemy's suspicion, Su Han joined the battle, fighting alongside Zhang Xiaowan against the Dragon Qi Demon Beasts.
BOOM!
Half an hour later, a long rainbow streaked through the air.
Di Yuan had arrived.
