Chapter 1700: Trust
The two circled back to the previous trap mechanism, then quickly left the cave.
The interior of the cave had been completely destroyed by them; restoring it to its original state was now impossible.
However, these matters were not important to Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying; they had already obtained what they wanted.
After leaving the cave, the two continued deeper into the heart of Jibei.
This place was no longer as desolate as before; some vegetation and creatures had appeared.
And Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying also discovered some powerful demonic beasts and ruins here.
They stayed here for several days before leaving.
In the heart of Jibei, Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying witnessed more unknowns and dangers, and also gained rich experience and treasures.
"Have we already left Jibei?" One day, Prince Di Luomi looked at the distant, rolling mountain ranges and said to Hearing Ming Ying beside him.
"It should be so; we should have already passed the edge of Jibei," Hearing Ming Ying said while looking ahead. "Where do we go next?"
"We are going to the Sky Demon Sea," Prince Di Luomi said calmly. "That is the only passage to other continents."
"The Sky Demon Sea? Isn't that very dangerous?" Hearing Ming Ying asked in confusion. "I remember it is a paradise for demonic beasts, where many powerful beasts gather."
"Yes, but only through the Sky Demon Sea can one reach other continents," Prince Di Luomi explained. "Moreover, we can also find some things useful to us within the Sky Demon Sea."
"Alright, then let us set off quickly." Hearing Ming Ying asked no more questions and directly agreed with Prince Di Luomi's decision.
The two continued to gallop, their direction already deviating from the edge of Jibei. Their next destination was the Sky Demon Sea, a place that made people turn pale at the mere mention of it.
The rolling mountain ranges drew closer; Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying also began to grow vigilant. Although their strength was not insignificant, one still needed to be careful in a place like the Sky Demon Sea.
"We must be careful; there are many powerful demonic beasts inside the Sky Demon Sea," Prince Di Luomi warned. "We had best try to avoid conflicts with those beasts."
"Alright, I will pay attention," Hearing Ming Ying nodded and said.
The two continued forward and soon entered a region of towering mountains and dense forests. The mountains here were steep, ancient trees reached the sky, and low beast roars sounded from time to time. Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying also began to climb, constantly searching for the path to the Sky Demon Sea within these mountains.
"Careful!" Suddenly, Prince Di Luomi shouted loudly, and at the same time his figure flashed, pulling Hearing Ming Ying aside.
A huge black shadow suddenly burst out from the spot where the two had just been. It was a giant wolf with a body entirely black and shiny, its mouth filled with sharp fangs, and its eyes glowing with a ghostly light.
"A Level Five demonic beast?" Prince Di Luomi recognized the identity of this giant wolf at a glance, and also detected a powerful aura emanating from its body.
"Sky Demon Wolf?" Hearing Ming Ying also recognized this demonic beast and unconsciously stepped back two paces.
Prince Di Luomi said nothing; he had already begun to circulate his true essence, ready for battle at any moment.
Although this Sky Demon Wolf was merely a Level Five demonic beast, its strength was in no way inferior to that of an ordinary Level Six demonic beast.
If Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying were even slightly careless, they might fall here.
The Sky Demon Wolf did not launch an attack; it stared at Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying, seemingly searching for a suitable moment to strike. Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying also watched this demonic beast tensely; they understood in their hearts that if they did not handle this carefully, they would likely perish here.
Suddenly, the Sky Demon Wolf moved. It leaped, transforming into a black shadow, and pounced toward Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying. Prince Di Luomi was prepared; his figure flashed, and he dodged the Sky Demon Wolf's attack. At the same time, he顺势 (顺势) punched the Sky Demon Wolf's body.
"Bang!" A dull thud sounded; Prince Di Luomi's fist left a deep indentation on the Sky Demon Wolf's body. However, the Sky Demon Wolf was unharmed and instead attacked Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying even more ferociously.
Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying joined forces, constantly dodging the Sky Demon Wolf's attacks while launching counterattacks. Although they also struck the Sky Demon Wolf, it seemed they did not inflict much damage.
"This beast's hide is too thick," Hearing Ming Ying said while dodging the Sky Demon Wolf's attacks.
"Hmm, we need to find its weak point," Prince Di Luomi thought about countermeasures while dodging the Sky Demon Wolf's attacks. Suddenly, he thought of his mysterious flame. "I will try using the mysterious flame to see if it can cause damage."
As Prince Di Luomi spoke, he activated his mysterious flame. A ball of scorching flame rose in his palm, then surged toward the Sky Demon Wolf. The flame burned on the Sky Demon Wolf's body, but the Sky Demon Wolf merely let out a roar and extinguished the flame.
"Still no good?" Hearing Ming Ying said upon seeing this scene.
"It seems this beast not only has a thick hide but can also resist my mysterious flame," Prince Di Luomi said helplessly. "We still need to find its weak point as soon as possible."
The two continued fighting as time slowly passed. Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying constantly probed the Sky Demon Wolf's strength and weak points, but they still failed to find an effective way to attack.
"It seems we can only clash with it head-on," finally, Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying made their decision. They no longer dodged but directly met the Sky Demon Wolf's attacks.
Prince Di Luomi and Hearing Ming Ying launched their strongest attacks directly; their figures crossed in the air, then they charged at the Sky Demon Wolf together. Finally, they successfully drove back the Sky Demon Wolf and killed it.
"This beast is indeed troublesome," Hearing Ming Ying said, leaning against a tree. "If our strength were not so great, we would truly have been killed by it."
"Yes, but we were lucky," Prince Di Luomi walked to the Sky Demon Wolf's corpse and removed its fang. "Once we return to the Human Realm, this fang should be worth a lot of money."
"You have already collected many such fangs, haven't you?" Hearing Ming Ying asked.
"Yes, I have already collected six fangs," Prince Di Luomi said proudly. "Once we return to the Human Realm, I must find a buyer to sell this fang."
After several months, the two finally broke through the mountains and exited the Sky Demon Sea region.
"The next stop is the Central Continent," Prince Di Luomi pointed into the distance. "We must go to the Central Continent to make our mark."
"The Central Continent?" Hearing Ming Ying asked in confusion. "What is fun about the Central Continent?"
"The Central Continent is the central region of all continents," Prince Di Luomi explained. "There, powerful experts gather, and there are many unknown dangers and opportunities."
"Moreover," Prince Di Luomi smiled mysteriously, "there we might also encounter some of our old acquaintances."
"Old acquaintances?" Hearing Ming Ying was somewhat puzzled. "Who?"
"I won't tell you," Prince Di Luomi laughed heartily and offered no explanation.
After the two entered the Central Continent, they found that it was indeed as Prince Di Luomi had said: powerful experts gathered, and opportunities and dangers coexisted. They met many experts from various continents here, including top-tier experts who made them feel threatened.
