Chapter 78: Who are you? The one who comes for your life!

Arriving in the Dan Region, Gu Fei brought Xiao Yixian and the others to a nearby city to rest for a while.

He glanced at the map; Luo Shen Jian was in the northern direction, and even at the current speed, it would take no more than a few days to arrive.

On the way to Luo Shen Jian, Gu Fei lingered for a while in several nearby cities.

Gu Fei only possessed three types of Exotic Fire, and the reward previously bestowed by Venerable Tian Huo, the Five Wheel Departure Fire Method, required gathering five types of flames.

Therefore, in order to gather the other two types of beast fire and enhance the power of the Five Wheel Departure Fire Method, Gu Fei chose to stay here for a moment.

The Dan Region is truly the center of the Central Plains and even the Dou Qi Continent; everything here is far easier to find than outside.

Beast fire, which in the outside world only appears fleetingly at auctions most of the time, was gathered by Gu Fei in just one day.

Although the cost was not small, Gu Fei did not care at all about those worldly possessions; his background gave him the capital to squander.

"Brother Gu Fei, are you done?"

Xiao Yixian watched Gu Fei walk out of the room and asked with a smile.

"Mm, we can set off!"

Gu Fei nodded.

"Call those two girls."

Xiao Yixian responded, then turned back and called out to Zi Yan and Qing Lin.

Zi Yan was currently holding a mouthful of medicinal pills; hearing this, she chewed unhurriedly, responded vaguely, and then pulled Qing Lin over.

"Brother Gu Fei! The Space Wormhole is really too boring. Next, can you let the Lion King carry us for a stretch?"

Zi Yan ran over quickly, wrapped both hands around Gu Fei's arm, and shook it back and forth.

Gu Fei lowered his eyes to look at Zi Yan; she was looking at him with an innocent face, her apricot eyes blinking, and her sharp little tiger teeth exposed.

Seeing that Gu Fei did not answer, Zi Yan shook his forearm again, her voice becoming even more coquettish.

"Brother Gu Fei, please~"

【Zi Yan produces a pleading emotion, Emotion Value +100】

Gu Fei pinched the space between his eyebrows and sighed helplessly.

He was truly curious how Xiao Yixian managed to handle this girl; after a bout of acting spoiled, even he could not help but give in.

"Fine, but you must be obedient on this journey."

【Zi Yan produces a surprised emotion, Emotion Value +100】

"Thank you, Brother Gu Fei!"

The corners of Zi Yan's eyes curved, and she pursed her lips into a big smile.

Gu Fei turned his head to give an order to the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and the Lion King backed away a little; on an open space, its figure flashed, and it immediately resumed its massive Amethyst Winged Lion King beast form.

Zi Yan laughed happily and quickly climbed onto the Lion King's back.

Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin also walked in front of Gu Fei, and the three of them got on one after another.

Luo Shen Jian is located in the northern part of the Dan Region, and the terrain there is extremely complex.

Gu Fei's group rode the Amethyst Winged Lion King to this place; he stood at a high point, looking into the distance, his expression calm.

Before him was a vast, boundless plain of rubble; the plain was covered with countless pitch-black cracks. These cracks, like the ferocious mouths of demons, emerged from the ground and extended into the distance, that eerie blackness making one feel a chill in their heart.

On the plain were scattered some extremely massive boulders; some of these giant rocks looked just like stone mountains, their entire bodies emitting a pitch-black color, and in the sky, some black mist also lingered year-round.

These were all poisonous mists rising from the mountain ravine, and after years of accumulation, they almost obscured the sky of this vast plain.

"Let's go in!"

Facing such a dangerous place, Gu Fei did not travel on the ground and still had the Lion King fly.

Inside Luo Shen Jian, poison runs rampant, and even the energy of heaven and earth here is mixed with some poison gas; ordinary experts would never dare to cultivate here, nor would they dare to fly in the sky.

However, Gu Fei possessed Exotic Fire; when that heaven and earth energy passed through the Exotic Fire protective shield, the poison gas mixed within it automatically dissipated under that terrifying high temperature.

Before long, the Lion King arrived in the depths of Luo Shen Jian, where poisonous mist swirled and the air even had a slightly fishy smell; if inhaled into the body, that would be quite troublesome.

But fortunately, with Gu Fei's protection, Xiao Yixian, Qing Lin, and the others were safe and sound.

"We're almost there; that is our target location."

Another few minutes passed, and Gu Fei gave a low shout, had the Lion King stop, pointed forward, and looked back.

Hidden under the dense poisonous mist, a massive white stone fortress appeared and disappeared from view.

Roar!

Just as the Lion King flew within a thousand meters of the stone fortress, this land suddenly shook violently, and immediately, a heaven-shaking dragon roar burst forth from within the stone fortress; this sound swept over like a gale, shaking all the rubble on the ground into the air!

"This aura, it's actually the Woeful Poison Body! Haha, I never expected that today I would have such great luck to run into this!"

The dragon roar resounded, and a loud laugh also rang out from the stone fortress like rolling thunder, then spread out like ripples.

As the laughter fell, only sharp whistling sounds were heard, and a blood-red figure flashed out from the stone fortress like lightning.

A pair of dragon wings, fully ten zhang wide, extended from behind that figure, and behind it was a blood-colored scorpion tail over ten meters long, the tip of which revealed a sharp, cold glint.

Even the Lion King's figure could not help but stiffen at this moment, its huge pupils revealing some fear.

This was the instinct of a Magical Beast; the figure opposite was far stronger than the Lion King, likely reaching the level of an Eight-Star Dou Zong.

That blood-red figure hovered in the sky, the huge dragon wings behind it flapping slowly, bringing up gusts of wind.

However, except for the wings on its back and that sharp scorpion tail, this Heaven Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast was almost indistinguishable from an ordinary human, and its appearance was also extremely handsome, faintly revealing a trace of evil charm.

"No need to panic."

Gu Fei said indifferently, set up a protective shield around the Lion King, then walked off the Lion King's back as if strolling in a courtyard, and in the void, walked step by step to the front of the Heaven Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast.

He did not restrain his own aura but released it forcefully.

Approaching step by step, Gu Fei's momentum also climbed steadily.

Gu Fei could see clearly in his eyes that as he drew closer, a trace of panic gradually appeared in the eyes of the Heaven Scorpion Poison Dragon Beast.

Compared to the arrogant appearance he had just now in front of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, he was simply like a different person.

【Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast experiences fear, Emotion Value +15】

But he was accustomed to being arrogant here in Luo Shen Jian, so even though the pressure on Gu Fei was terrifying, he would absolutely never admit defeat or soften his stance just like that.

"Who goes there?"

"Are you willing to yield the Woe Poison Body behind you? This king will surely offer a great gift in return!"

【Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast experiences wariness and greed, Emotion Value +15】

His gaze involuntarily drifted toward Xiao Yixian behind Gu Fei, greed flashing in his eyes.

"Hmph!"

Seeing that the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast still harbored evil intentions and actually dared to set its sights on Xiao Yixian, Gu Fei let out a cold snort, and the pressure on his body surged toward the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast like a mountain collapsing and the seas overturning.

"The person here to take your life!"
