Chapter 145
As long as one can obtain the Heavenly Sword, one has already obtained the world!
This feeling permeated Yang Jun's heart.
He plunged the Heavenly Sword back into the ragged junk used as a disguise.
Possessing a supreme treasure, the most important thing is to ensure one's own safety.
Yang Jun retrieved his horse, mounted it, headed outward from the autumn hunting grounds, then sped up, desperately riding away from the dangerous place — that was the proper course of action.
On Zhou Tian's side, the Beast King, under the siege of the crowd, was also retreating step by step.
The Beast King retreated quickly, while the crowd attacked even faster.
Everyone wanted to slay the Beast King and then obtain its young.
That way, they could also reap great benefits.
Precisely for this reason, then, all of this now is precisely what excites everyone the most.
At this moment, Zhou Tian was also the most excited, charging forward swiftly.
What he wanted was to be first, to obtain all of this himself.
However, Zhou Tian soon felt an immense pressure.
Simply because, at this time, the Beast King's counterattack power was also growing stronger.
As it turned out, this place was already getting closer and closer to the Beast King's lair.
At this time, these people were all pursuing the Beast King, each mounted on their steeds, so as to move faster.
The Beast King originally thought this group had stolen its offspring, but after searching, it found none.
And the nearer it got to the nest, the more it discovered that there was no trace of its young's scent.
Instead, it caught the scent of its offspring among these people.
This feeling made the Beast King very displeased.
The fellow right before him, who attacked most fiercely while mounted on a horse, arrogant in demeanor, had the strongest scent on him!
The Beast King seemed to have confirmed that some kind of danger existed nearby.
Thus, at this moment, after a few roars and angry howls, it swung its palm, slapping to death several would-be ambushers.
Seeing blood, the Beast King's ferocity was further aroused.
Again came roar after roar, howl after howl, issuing from the Beast King's mouth.
Having gained a brief respite, the Beast King lunged at Zhou Tian.
After all, the scent emanating from Zhou Tian's side was very familiar to the Beast King.
Zhou Tian, however, was clueless, merely feeling that the Beast King now harbored excessive hostility toward him.
Moreover, at this time the Beast King seemed intent on devouring him.
At this moment, the vicious light flashing from the Beast King's eyes was enough to devour everything.
It was this problem that made Zhou Tian feel extremely vexed.
Now, with so many people besieging the Beast King, why does it single me out for attack?
Such a situation left Zhou Tian feeling resentful.
Perhaps it's because my strength surpasses the others, so the Beast King fixates on me alone for its assault?
Isn't this somewhat inappropriate?
Precisely so, he had such thoughts.
Zhou Tian now was quite surprised.
Fortunately, his ability was not lacking, and his coordination with the horse was fairly close.
The Beast King struck again with a claw.
Fortunately, Zhou Tian reacted swiftly, controlling his horse, making another turn to dodge.
But, having just avoided that blow, the Beast King pursued again, leaving no room to spare Zhou Tian.
Damn it!
Zhou Tian cursed inwardly and had no choice but to dodge quickly.
Upon seeing this, the others were again shocked.
Such a thing was beyond their expectations.
Now, they all nocked arrows, drew bows, and shot long arrows forward.
Although the Beast King was formidable, it could still not block these arrows' attacks.
In a short while, the Beast King's body was bristling with arrows.
Wounded, the Beast King grew ever more frenzied.
However, the Beast King had already decided that everything was Zhou Tian's doing.
Thus, at this time, the Beast King's attacks remained simple and swift.
It merely focused on Zhou Tian alone, carrying out an utter annihilation.
Zhou Tian grew increasingly alarmed as he fought; the Beast King seemed resolved to deal with him.
Even though others' arrows struck its body, it felt nothing, instead turning around to attack him.
Such a problem left Zhou Tian unable to figure it out.
After several rounds of attacks, Zhou Tian swiftly retreated.
His posture there appeared somewhat flustered.
Amid increasing tension, Zhou Tian's control over his horse slightly faltered.
At that moment, as the horse brought Zhou Tian through another dodge, it tripped with a thump, sending both horse and rider crashing to the ground.
Zhou Tian, caught off guard, was thrown out.
Although Zhou Tian's strength was astonishing, he still rolled several times on the ground before getting up.
Just as Zhou Tian had just straightened his body, he saw a scene that shocked him immensely.
The Beast King struck down with one palm, and the horse was smashed to pieces by that blow.
Amidst the splashing blood, the Beast King did not pause at all.
Raising his head to look at Zhou Tian again, his eyes were blood-red.
With his fury raging, accompanied by a fishy wind, he charged again at Zhou Tian.
At this moment, his speed became even faster.
Seeing this, Zhou Tian was even more surprised.
His figure flickered, he tried his utmost to dodge.
The Beast King had arrows embedded in his body, and fresh blood was flowing.
However, its speed was not much affected.
The more injured it was, the more the Beast King went berserk, and the more frenzied it became.
Now, in this situation, all the influences that have formed are revealed at this moment.
Facing the Beast King's ferocious aura, Zhou Tian was extremely shocked and could only retreat quickly.
While fleeing, he also watched the Beast King.
Looking at the Beast King's bleeding state, he couldn't understand why the Beast King wouldn't let him go.
"Damn it, obviously so many people are beating you, why are you only targeting me?"
"What, do you think I'm easy to bully?"
"Damn it, you're stealing the young beast, I haven't even seen a hair of it."
"Protecting the calf, it shouldn't be like this, right?"
Zhou Tian felt stifled and also dissatisfied.
However, no matter how much indignation, the most important thing now is still to preserve his life.
If he can't even preserve his life, what's the point of obtaining both the Beast King and the young beast?
The Beast King didn't care what Zhou Tian was thinking; at that moment, he clenched his fists with both claws and struck down at Zhou Tian.
Seeing this, Zhou Tian widened his eyes and swiftly dodged.
He barely managed to escape, avoiding that blow.
However, the Beast King's powerful strike landed on the ground.
With a booming sound, Zhou Tian was too close, so his ears felt like they were about to be deafened; that intense pain came, and he could only roll on the spot to avoid it again.
At the same time, he increased the distance.
Flee, one must flee!
Nowadays, such a thought already exists in Zhou Tian's mind.
Retrieve the Heaven Sword; yes, only then can one deal with this frenzied Beast King, and avoid dying under its claws!
Otherwise, in the end, I can only die under the Beast King's claws!
Zhou Tian was unwilling, and was also struggling desperately.
