Chapter 1716: Two
Han Li and Liu Shui'er saw this and looked at each other, stunned.
Shi Kun, who had fallen to the ground, finally crawled up slowly and sent a shocked and angry transmission to Han Li and the others:
"What is going on? How could a King-level Dark Beast appear here alone? What bad luck, to be accidentally bumped into by a King Beast!"
"Brother Shi, are you okay?" Liu Shui'er seemed very concerned and transmitted back.
"I'm fine, my body was just numb for a moment. I'm much better now," Shi Kun hummed, his voice gradually becoming louder, appearing to be truly unharmed.
Han Li heard this, but frowned, and just as he was about to ask something, another change occurred somewhere far ahead!
Suddenly, ten thousand beasts roared!
The roar was like thunder in the sky, rolling in, making people's ears buzz, and the nearby trees trembled, as if they had all come alive.
"What is this?" Liu Shui'er lost her voice.
Han Li and Shi Kun also revealed expressions of doubt.
But the next moment, the roar came to an abrupt end, but from the direction of the roar, countless astonishing auras emerged, approaching this side at an extremely fast speed.
A short while later, Han Li and the others heard the continuous sound of "sha-sha."
"Not good, hide quickly!"
This time, Han Li just turned his mind, and his face suddenly turned pale, and he whispered a transmission to Liu Shui'er and the others. Then his figure pounced toward a giant tree nearby, and with a flash of green light, his entire figure vanished inside.
Shi Kun and Liu Shui'er's movements were no slower.
Almost at the same time Han Li reminded them, the two also realized it.
One stepped fiercely on the ground nearby, and with a flash of yellow light, his whole person sank into the mud below. The other spat out a ball of blue light, and her whole person gradually became transparent in the light, finally vanishing into thin air.
Almost at the same time the three of them fled in different directions, black light flashed in the distant woods, and countless Dark Beasts surged out, dense and countless.
It was as if most of the Dark Beasts in the Dark Beast Forest had gathered here.
Han Li's magic power surged, and after a few flashes, he was already over a few miles away. He turned his head and stared into the distance, immediately discovering that many of these Dark Beasts were unusually large, and between their foreheads, there was a strange gray vertical eye.
They were actually those high-level Three-Eyed Dark Beasts!
On the previous journey, these high-level Dark Beasts hadn't been encountered at all, but they were all concentrated together.
As soon as these Dark Beasts surged out, countless spiritual senses swept in all directions, covering the area of hundreds of miles.
Seeing this, Han Li no longer had any fluke, black light flashed on his body, and a piece of black gauze appeared, wrapping his entire body.
He actually sacrificed the two mysterious black gauzes he had obtained from the Wuluo people.
Then the Dark Beast he transformed into opened its mouth, and a purple talisman shot out and was pasted onto his body.
After a "chi-la" sound, a puff of purple gas mixed with countless silver runes emerged, covering his figure.
The Dark Beast's body became void, but at the same time, its escape speed became unusually slow.
Seeing this, Han Li glanced at Shi Kun and Liu Shui'er again.
Unlike him, the two's escape speed hadn't stopped at all, and with almost invisible auras, they had already fled over ten miles away.
Clearly, unlike Han Li who chose to hide his figure first, these two intended to escape before being discovered by the high-level Dark Beasts.
These two methods naturally couldn't be said to be better than the other.
If those high-level Dark Beasts' spiritual sense couldn't see through the two's concealment for a while, it was naturally better to leave this place early.
But if the concealment effect was greatly reduced due to the high-speed flight, and the two were noticed by those Dark Beasts, it would be another dangerous scene.
Han Li chose to hide his figure first, mainly because he had treasures like the Taiyi Transformation Clear Talisman and black gauze, which could not be easily seen through.
The third vertical eyes of the many high-level Dark Beasts in the herd flashed, and dense spiritual senses fell from the sky, not only sweeping past Han Li one by one, but also not letting go of Shi Kun and the other two in the distance.
But these spiritual senses just swept past, and did not stay on the three at all. Clearly, they hadn't discovered the three's figures.
Han Li and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, Han Li's gaze turned, and he suddenly saw something in the herd, his face changed, and he gasped.
Only to see a golden shadow jumping out in the herd, its body shimmering with gold, and it was another King-level Dark Beast.
This King-level Dark Beast was clearly different from the previous one. Not only was its body slightly larger, but it was also closely followed by seven or eight other Three-Eyed Dark Beasts.
The third vertical eyes of these high-level Dark Beasts were not gray, but emitted faint silver light.
As soon as the golden Dark Beast appeared, except for the few silver-eyed Dark Beasts that followed closely, the other Dark Beasts nearby respectfully retreated to over ten feet away, leaving a large, empty area for this beast.
The entire herd stopped consciously, some standing on trees, some staying on the ground, looking at the golden Dark Beast with awe.
And this King-level Dark Beast swept its cold gaze around, then a powerful aura radiated from its body, actually suppressing the spiritual sense fluctuations of other high-level Dark Beasts with an irresistible momentum, sweeping toward the nearby area.
Seeing this, Han Li's heart sank slightly, and he simply stopped flying, hiding quietly in a giant tree, not moving at all.
In the distance, Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun, feeling the giant movement sweeping over, were also shocked and stopped their escape light, hiding their breath, hoping to hide from the opponent's spiritual sense.
But this time, it was clearly impossible.
Han Li was fine, this powerful spiritual sense also swept past, but didn't see through his virtual body. But when it fell on Liu Shui'er and the other two, it paused, and then became unusually cold.
"Run!" Shi Kun felt the change in spiritual sense, and drank low in shock. Yellow light flashed, and he flew out as a yellow rainbow without any concealment.
Liu Shui'er also knew things were looking bad. Without a word, the white jade mouse beneath her feet flashed and appeared, transforming into a mass of light that abruptly enveloped her, and she likewise shot away.
This time, not only the other golden Dark Beasts, but also other ordinary and high-level Dark Beasts discovered the two's figures, and the herd was in a commotion.
That golden Dark Beast's black eyes flashed with cold light, and a murderous intent appeared on its face. With a move of its mouth, it seemed to be ordering something.
But the next moment, the beast's expression changed, and it turned its head toward the direction where the previous golden Dark Beast fled, raising its head and letting out a long roar that pierced the sky.
The roar was not only clear, but also seemed to carry an incredible power.
The Dark Beasts that heard it, the ordinary ones, fell to the ground with weak limbs. The high-level ones also swayed, as if they couldn't stand firm.
And almost the moment the roar sounded, another long roar sounded from another place far away.
Listening to it, it was unusually similar, but full of endless rage.
Hearing this roar, the golden Dark Beast in the herd revealed a ferocious expression, and at the same time, a low, giant roar erupted from its mouth.
The originally stopped herd surged and galloped forward again.
Looking at their direction, it was exactly where the golden Dark Beast in front was.
However, the King-level Dark Beast leading the herd didn't mean to ignore Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun.
It twisted its body and roared a few times at the silver-eyed Dark Beasts surrounding it.
Immediately, those silver-eyed Dark Beasts roared respectfully, moved their bodies, turned into several silver streaks of light, and shot after Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun.
And the King-level Dark Beast itself jumped and sank into the herd, chasing after the other golden Dark Beast.
In the blink of an eye, the herd swept past like a hurricane, and those silver-eyed Dark Beasts also ran away without a trace, one after another with Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun.
Han Li stayed in the giant tree without moving, and until an hour later, after confirming that there were indeed no other Dark Beasts nearby, he moved and lifted the effect of the Taiyi Transformation Clear Talisman, and put away the black gauze.
The Taiyi Transformation Clear Talisman naturally had a time limit, and the black gauze, although light and thin, consumed a lot of magic power.
He naturally couldn't keep sacrificing these two things without retracting them.
Green light flashed, and the Dark Beast transformed by Han Li appeared from the giant tree.
He turned his head and stared coldly at the direction where the herd and Liu Shui'er and the others vanished, thought for a moment, and sighed.
Opening his mouth, a green sword flew out, circled, and turned into a piece of green light that rolled back.
Then a green rainbow several feet long shot out, chasing after the latter.
At the beginning, the escape light was dazzling, but a moment later it became dim, finally turning into a faint green shadow.
Han Li's escape light was unusually fast, but he chased for half a day in one breath without seeing the target at all.
If it weren't for the secret treasure they each refined when they set off that could vaguely determine the position of the three, he would have really thought he had lost Liu Shui'er and the others.
It seems that Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun used all their strength to escape in order to get rid of the pursuers, and even with his sword light escape speed, he couldn't shorten the distance at all.
And those silver-eyed Dark Beasts could also follow closely at this escape speed. Also not to be underestimated!
Han Li's mind turned rapidly, and after biting his teeth, his figure suddenly flashed with silver light, and he transformed into a human form again.
He put away the beast skin covering his body and formed seals with one hand.
With a low thunderous sound of "boom," a pair of crystal-clear wings appeared on his back.
