Chapter 225: Demon King Attacks

After waiting in place for a while, seeing that Song Qingming, who had taken the pill, had finally gradually adapted to his current physical condition, Huo Feng nodded with satisfaction and took him to continue walking forward swaggeringly.

The two of them running out without hiding their tracks soon attracted the attention of the demonic beasts in front of the valley. It was just that what made Song Qingming a bit strange was that those demonic beasts had clearly discovered the two of them, but they never came up to attack, just kept watching them closely.

Song Qingming had been in the secret realm for so many days and also knew that the demonic beasts in here basically fought to the death when they saw people. Now, the reason why this was the case was mostly because of Huo Feng.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the several second-grade demonic beasts in front, although he had already taken the elixir Huo Feng gave him, Song Qingming still felt a bit uneasy in his heart. One hand was tightly pressed against his storage bag, ready to deal with any sudden situation at any time.

What Song Qingming didn't expect was that when the two of them walked to a distance of more than ten feet away from the demonic beasts, those demonic beasts had already begun to retreat slowly, taking the initiative to clear the road in the middle.

Until the two passed through here, Song Qingming still couldn't believe the situation just now. They had simply dismissed those demonic beasts just like that.

Sure enough, no matter where the demonic beasts were, they would be suppressed by innate bloodlines. This point had never changed much. Facing a powerful demon race like Huo Feng, these second-grade demonic beasts didn't even have the courage to come up and test them.

After passing through this place smoothly, the two walked forward along the valley for two miles and soon walked into a relatively flat mountain col.

Just after walking in, Song Qingming soon discovered a mature second-grade Silver-Leaf Grass not far ahead and hurriedly stepped forward to pick it and put it into his storage bag.

Not long after putting away the spirit herb and walking forward, Song Qingming saw another second-grade spirit herb, and beside it was a red fruit tree with seven or eight spirit fruits. Having just entered the inner valley, there were so many harvests so quickly. Song Qingming's face suddenly blossomed with joy. He didn't expect that there were so many spirit items in here, not to mention that these things came so easily to him.

Thinking of the time he was in the outer valley a few days ago, when he and Huang Shengxin and the others were fighting to the death with the demonic beasts guarding the spirit herbs for a few second-grade spirit herbs, and also having to worry about being targeted by others in the secret realm, Song Qingming also gave a bitter smile in his heart.

Seeing Song Qingming sweeping up various spirit items in the mountain col like a locust crossing the border, Huo Feng couldn't help but frown and said sternly to him: "The place we are going to will have more good things. Don't waste your time here."

"Senior, a big person like you naturally doesn't lack the spirit items needed for cultivation. My cultivation is low, and I don't have many opportunities to obtain spirit items. Naturally, my days are a bit tight. I hope you can forgive me."

Hearing that Huo Feng's tone was a bit displeased, Song Qingming hurriedly nodded with a smile and stepped forward to catch up with her.

Huo Feng rolled her eyes at him and said: "If I didn't lack spirit items, why would I run here? Do you really think I'm bored and don't know how dangerous it is in here!"

"Senior, what exactly are you here for that is worth you taking such a big risk?"

"For something very important to me. But don't ask about what's below anymore. What you should know, I will naturally tell you." Huo Feng looked up and swept a cold glance at Song Qingming, dispelling his thought of wanting to open his mouth again.

Seeing her cold eyes, Song Qingming suddenly felt a chill coming from his body and couldn't help but pause and walk two steps slower.

Just like that, the two walked toward the depths of the inner valley. During this time, they encountered seven or eight waves of demonic beasts, but when they saw Huo Feng, they didn't dare to come up to attack them, allowing the two of them to walk into the depths of the inner valley easily.

Just when Song Qingming thought they could reach their destination safely, a fierce roar suddenly came from in front of the two, followed by violent vibrations on the ground.

Hearing this sound, Song Qingming felt that the situation was not good. Huo Feng, who was walking in front, also stopped and frowned.

"We have encountered trouble. Be careful yourself and don't run around." Huo Feng turned her head and gave a serious instruction to Song Qingming, preparing to step forward to face the enemy alone.

"Senior, I don't know what is coming yet. Should we avoid it first?" Song Qingming reminded her carefully.

"Those people earlier have already entered the inner valley one step ahead of us. We cannot delay any longer here." Huo Feng shook her head calmly and floated up from the ground, flying into mid-air.

Seeing that she had already made a decision, Song Qingming didn't dare to persuade her anymore and hurriedly retreated hundreds of steps, finding a large tree to hide behind.

Looking at Huo Feng's somewhat thin figure in the sky not far away, a bad premonition suddenly arose in Song Qingming's heart.

Along the way, no matter what they encountered, Huo Feng always maintained a confident look and never took those dangers to heart. This was the first time Song Qingming had seen her show such a cautious look.

Although she had extraordinary strength outside, now that she had entered this secret realm, her cultivation was definitely suppressed. Otherwise, with her strength, to enter the inner valley, why would she need to deliberately avoid those major sect cultivators?

The rumbling sound was getting closer and closer, and Song Qingming had already seen the sky full of dust being kicked up in the distance.

After getting closer, Song Qingming finally saw clearly that the one causing such a big commotion was actually a giant golden bull with a body height of more than three feet.

Looking at this huge figure, even though Song Qingming was hiding in the distance, he could very clearly feel a huge pressure coming from it.

That's right, the appearance of this demonic beast and the powerful aura it emitted should be a third-tier Demon King at the Golden Core stage.

Seeing this Golden Bull Demon King, Song Qingming was so shocked that he opened his mouth and pressed tightly behind the large tree. He really didn't expect that there would be a Demon King above the third tier in the inner valley of this secret realm. If he had known there would be such a powerful Demon King, he shouldn't have come in.

Although the demonic beasts in the secret realm would be three-tenths weaker than the same-tier demonic beasts outside, this demonic beast could be considered a third-tier Demon King no matter what. No wonder it wasn't suppressed by Huo Feng's innate bloodline like the other second-grade demonic beasts they had encountered earlier, and it came directly to kill the two of them.

After Huo Feng in mid-air saw this Golden Bull Demon King whose body size was more than a hundred times larger than hers, she didn't show a trace of fear on her face and flew calmly in front of it, shouting loudly at it.

"Get out of here!"
