The o stretched out in serene ess, its surface gently rippling uhe sun. Large fishes occasionally broke through the surface, their bodies glistening before they vanished into the depths.
Swoosh!
A shadow flew overhead at incredible speed, leaving a trail oer as it passed by.
Wuji g the creatures below before looking ahead. He had been flying for over a day without rest, he crossed more than half the o.
There were numerous instances where powerful beasts attacked him, but fortunately, he mao escape safely each time.
Calg the time, he would reach the Illusory Demon Realm in a day.
Spsh!
A massive bck serpent surged from the water beh Wuji, its gleaming scales, menag eyes, and bared sharp fangs creating a fearsome sight.
It exuded the terrifying might of a Sn Profound Realm creature.
It opes mouth, aiming to devour Wuji. The air, water, and even distant creatures were forcibly drawn in by its powerful pull.
Wuji couldn't resist the powerful pull and was dragged into its gaping mouth.
Crush!
The beast closed its mouth and submerged bato the water, feeling satisfied.
Meanwhile, a few thousand kilometers away, Wuji appeared.
The momeered the mouth of the beast, Wuji calmly teleported himself to another location. This recisely why he never exhausted all his energy in telep to far distances.
"This type of attack has beore frequent since I reached this area." He had been attacked dozens of times i few hours.
Holy, without overwhelming strength or exceptional escape abilities, no one would be able to cross this o.
Swoosh!
He resumed his flight again.
------
Boom!
Rumble!!
Roaaar!
High atop the mountain, the thunderous roars of a colossal beast echoed through the air, mingling with the crag of lightning and the reverberations of explosions. The chaotic sou shivers down the spines of all creatures nearby, filling them with a primal fear.
Boom!
The beast was struck by a massive sword, hurtling through the air until it crashed into a mountain rock, carving out a colossal crater upon impact.
The beast was a colossal white mo at 12 meters tall, its immense muscles ripplih a coat of hair that covered its entire body except its muscur chest.
It swiftly leaped out of the crater and charged towards the person who had sent it flying.
He was a handsome man with sharp features, bck hair, and pierg bck eyes, surrounded by a thin, transparent white membrane.
Who else would be but Yun Wuji would dare take our precious word t?
He watched the giant white monkey charging and swiftly sshed with his sword, sending tless beams of light casg through the air. The swords' brilliance was so intehat they formed a sea of sharp light, cutting down trees and rocks in their path.
The white monkey roared defiantly, beating its chest. Unafraid, it charged forward to meet the attack head-on.
Upon tact, tless injuries erupted across its body, causing it to roar in agony.
The monkey suddenly lifted its head, unleashing a deafening roar that echoed across the nd. The sheer power of its cry was so immehat creatures hundreds of kilometers away trembled and perished from the shockwaves reverberating through the air.
The sonic attack also affected the sword lights, scattering them in disarray. The white barrier enveloping Wuji showed signs of strain, with numerous ripples appearing across its surface, it was on the verge of breaking.
This white barrier was Wuji's first teique, designed not only to protect its user and heal injuries but also to passively absorb profound energy whi turn allows him to cultivate passively.
It was then that the monkey's eyes gleamed. With a soni, it charged and almost instantly appeared in front of Wuji. Before he could defend himself, a powerful punch hit the thin membrahe membraed slightly before breaking, scattering into tiny white dots.
He was sent flying crag into a faraway mountain rock.
"Argh, it hurts like hell!" Wuji gritted his teeth as he grabbed the rod pulled himself up.
He stood and dusted himself off.
"Hoo hoo hah ooh ha!"
The monkey roared and bas chest as if mog him.
"Damn monkey!" Wuji cursed as he ied his dition. His right arm and three ribs were broken. Fortunately, with his light profound energy, healing these injuries would be retively easy.
A few days ago, upon arriving in the Illusory Demon Realm, he had decided to rest for a while before tinuing his journey. However, when he sensed a nearby Rank 8 Overlord beast, he chose to front it.
He had several reasons for doing so. Lately, he had been researg a eique to boost his power, and he needed bat experieo perfect it. Additionally, he cked experien fighting oppos who were evenly matched or strohan him.
For the past five years, he had spent most of his time fleeing. Whenever faced with a tough oppo, he would retreat to avoid drawing attention from enemies. Usually, whe those who were weaker than him he would just crush them with one finger, and if he iably had to fight someorong, he would scheme against them. This led to his ck of direbat experience.
Lastly, the beast's meat and blood be used for pills.
Wuji lifted his heavy sword into the sky and roared, unleashing sword lights that verged with the previously scattered ones, f a colossal sword in the sky.
The sword was 100 meters tall, h above the monkey. With a powerful swing, Wuji brought the sword in his hand down, and the giant sword in the sky desded upon the beast.
The beast didn't try to dodge, it quickly raised its massive hands above its head to defend itself, brag for the impact of the desding colossal sword.
Boom!
The colossal sword crashed down, sending shockwaves through the air and shaking the grouh. Dust and debris exploded outward from the point of impact, filling the air.
"Roaar!"
The beast roared defiantly, its deferained against the impact. Its massive hands trembled uhe weight of the desding sword, and its feet sank into the earth
bang!
Finally, it couldn't hold on ao its knees, still struggling against the overwhelming force.
Wuji of course didn't miss this opportunity, rushed towards the monkey and sshed with his heavy sword.
The monkey exerted all its effort to stop the gigantic sword it didn't have the strength to stop Wuji.
Swosh!
The heavy sword struck its baearly breaking its spine.
""Roar!"
The monkey bellowed in pain, losing its strength to block the gigantic sword.
Boom!
Finally, the sword desded with a deafening crash, sying the beast.
Blood and flesh spttered all around.
After this fight, Yun Wuni uood some of his weaknesses.
"Gross, I'll need a shower!" He cried out in disgust. Blood and flesh spttered on him because he had been too close. He was used to having his white shield proteg him and fot to dodge.
He stored the monkey's body aed for a while.
----
Flying over the north, Wuji passed by Shiny Lake but he didn't stop to check it.
Shiny Lake was used by Huan Caiyi to suppress the fmes of the Golden Crow as the ke has threads and strands of cold energy that exist a thousaers below the ke.
Wuji wasn't ready to meet Huan Caiyi, although he had pns to meet this most beautiful woman on the ti and cooperate with her. But now wasn't the right time. Even if he were to meet her, he didn't have a way to vince her to work with him. He might even risk being attacked by her.
A woman like her, who has lost her father and husband and is surrounded by thieves vying to seize her throne, would uandably feel suspicious if a stranger appeared to help her.
Giving the ke o gnce, Wuji left.
