C1416 Acknowledged a Master
"What kind of power is this?"
The Gray Essence Strength was only a tiny bit tight, but the Sky-swallowing Rat's expression was extremely solemn.
He had been on the ancient bronze path for several thousand years. He had seen all kinds of Yuan Power, but he had never seen such a gloomy Yuan Power.
The void was originally the most overbearing power in the world. Apart from Great Sovereigns, no one else could withstand such power. But now, Xu Feng had swallowed a part of it in front of its eyes. Up until now, the Sky-swallowing Rat still couldn't accept it.
"This Yuan energy is not my original Yuan energy. It was obtained through martial arts cultivation!"
Xu Feng explained half of it, but didn't tell the whole story. After all, the Sky-swallowing Rat in front of him was his enemy. Xu Feng would never be so stupid as to tell everything he knew in front of his enemy.
"Is the name of this martial art called the Art of Death?"
Initially, he thought that the Sky-swallowing Rat would let him go just like that. Unexpectedly, the Sky-swallowing Rat seemed to have thought of something and called out the name of the Art of Death.
The name of the Art of Death made Xu Feng's heart tighten.
He had obtained the Art of Perish from the Pagoda of Demon Suppression, but who would have thought that someone would know about it on the ancient bronze path?
Did this Sky-swallowing Rat have some kind of relationship with Senior Human Demon's master?
Xu Feng didn't consider these questions for the time being. He paused for a moment, then shook his head and said apologetically, "Forgive this junior for not being able to answer this question."
"Putong!"
Seemingly seeing through Xu Feng's worries, the Sky-swallowing Rat did something that made Xu Feng dumbfounded. He immediately knelt in front of Xu Feng and said in a deep voice, "Greetings, Master."
"Senior, don't be like this. I don't dare to be your master!"
After saying that, Xu Feng quickly stepped forward and tried to help the Sky-swallowing Rat up. However, the Sky-swallowing Rat didn't move at all. It was as if its legs were rooted in the ancient bronze path, and it couldn't help it up at all.
"Let me finish speaking first!"
After persisting for a while, Xu Feng did not help the Sky-swallowing Rat up again. The Sky-swallowing Rat took a deep breath and slowly said, "In the ancient times, our Sky-swallowing Rat clan could only struggle to survive in this starry sky. Later on, with the help of a Great Sovereign, our Sky-swallowing Rat gradually became stronger. We ruled this world! "
"Even our ancestors didn't know the name of that Great Sovereign. They only knew that the Yuan energy in his body was gray, and that it was called the Great Destruction Spell!"
"Countless months have passed, and we've never seen that Martial Monarch again. Our ancestors have also died in the endless years, and now... I'm the only one left. According to my ancestors' teachings, if I meet a Great Emperor or someone who uses the Great Destruction Spell... We will follow him through life and death to repay his kindness!"
... ""
When Xu Feng heard this, he was speechless in his heart. It had been so many years. This Sky-swallowing Rat was actually so serious? He waved his hand. Senior, there's no need to repay my kindness. After all, it wasn't me who saved you all. Now, I just want to leave the Ancient Bronze Road... "
"No way!"
Unexpectedly, the Sky-swallowing Rat became excited in an instant, and said in a straightforward manner, "The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water. Besides, if it wasn't for that Emperor, our Sky-swallowing Rat Clan wouldn't have been able to live until now!"
"But these favors, they weren't given to you by me..."
While Xu Feng was helpless, he could not help but sigh at the seriousness of the Sky-swallowing Rat.
Perhaps it was because he had been in this ancient bronze path for a long time and didn't know how sinister people's hearts were. This kind of ancient mantra had been lost in this world for a long time. He was afraid that no one would remember it.
"No matter what, that Great Sovereign is finally related to you. Why don't you let me follow you?"
The Sky-swallowing Rat kept begging Xu Feng. Xu Feng kept shaking his head, unwilling to accept it.
Receiving rewards without merit was Xu Feng's principle. He wouldn't take advantage of others for nothing. Besides, given the strength of the Sky-swallowing Rat, the Southern Ridge wouldn't be able to withstand his strength once they returned to Southern Ridge. He was afraid that the entire continent would collapse because of it.
"If you don't accept me as your follower, then you can stay here forever!"
No matter how much Xu Feng begged, he still wouldn't agree. The Sky-swallowing Rat had a temper. It turned its head and disappeared into the void.
"Hey! Don't be like this!"
Xu Feng became anxious. He shouted at the starlight that filled the sky. This Sky-swallowing Rat was too scary. Seeing that he did not agree, it actually began to threaten him.
"You promise me, I will take you away!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat didn't show itself. His voice kept echoing in the void. Xu Feng sighed lightly, thought for a while, and said helplessly, "How about this, you take me away first. If I come back next time... Meeting you again is fate. I will let you leave with me. You can be considered a friend, how about that? "
"I don't believe you!"
In the starry sky, the illusory image of the Sky-swallowing Rat appeared. A huge rat was running around in the starry sky. "After so many years, no one has stepped onto the ancient bronze path twice. You are trying to trick me into letting you leave!"
When Xu Feng heard this, he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood. He was angered to death by the Sky-swallowing Rat.
Even he had never thought of this possibility, but the Sky-swallowing Rat had thought of it. Was it because he was smart, or was it because he was stupid and cute?
"I swear a Heavenly Dao Oath, alright?"
Helpless, Xu Feng could only extend three fingers and point at the void. Just as he was about to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao, the Sky-swallowing Rat appeared in front of him.
"How can I make Master swear a Heavenly Dao Oath? I will take master and leave now!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat had an obedient appearance. It was no longer as sinister as it was at the beginning. Looking at his face with a mustache, Xu Feng could not help but smile bitterly. Such a beast was really cute!
Along the way, Xu Feng couldn't help but ask, "Why is there danger in this ancient bronze path? Shouldn't the almighty expert who opened the ancient bronze path sweep away all the dangers?"
"That's right. In the beginning, the ancient bronze path was peaceful. However, after a long period of time, the void became unstable. Some of the Demonic Beast in the void flowed into the ancient bronze path, and my ancestors were among them."
"From that time on, the ancient path of bronze was filled with slaughter. Each Demonic Beast was fighting for territory, constantly fighting. After a long period of time, the current situation was formed!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat's eyes flickered with memories. Obviously, he had also experienced a bitter battle, and that was why he had seized a piece of land on the ancient bronze path.
There were also fights in the void, and the fights between the Demonic Beast were even more bloody.
"How many Demonic Beast are there on the ancient bronze path?"
Xu Feng nodded and asked.
The ancient bronze path was so long that it was definitely not monopolized by the Sky-swallowing Rat alone. Therefore, Xu Feng was very curious about the Demonic Beast on the ancient bronze path. What kind of Demonic Beast were they?
"Get rid of the flying zombie you defeated earlier. There are twelve great demons on the ancient bronze path!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat said faintly. However, Xu Feng sucked in a breath of cold air. If it was not for the Gray Essence Strength, even the Sky-swallowing Rat would not have been able to pass the twelve great demons, let alone the other eleven...
"Why is the white haired flying zombies not counted among them?"
Xu Feng asked doubtfully. What he got in return was a laugh from the Sky-swallowing Rat, "His strength is too weak. Keeping him alive is to help us close the door..."
It took a long time for the Sky-swallowing Rat to explain everything that happened on the ancient bronze path to Xu Feng. Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh once more. Even with the strength of the White Zombie, he was actually disdained. These great demons were really too powerful.
It was no wonder that Lu Heng said that the ancient bronze path was dangerous and unwilling to open it. After all, it wasn't an easy task to face so many powerful spatial Demonic Beast.
"Will the other Demon Cultivator agree to take me out of the ancient bronze path?"
Suddenly, Xu Feng thought of another problem. The Sky-swallowing Rat waved its hand. It indicated that Xu Feng did not need to worry. "In a way, you are my prey. They have no right to ask how to deal with their prey!"
... ""1
The feeling of being called prey is very bad. However, Xu Feng had no way to refute it. In fact, if they really fought, he was indeed no match for the Sky-swallowing Rat. After all, the Sky-swallowing Rat was the legendary Demonic Beast. It was very powerful.
"We're about to reach the next region. Don't say anything. If there's anything, just leave it to me!"
The Sky-swallowing Rat said again. Xu Feng nodded his head and remained silent. Now that he was the big brother, he would naturally listen to everything he said.
They were speechless along the way. After walking for about an hour, a gloomy aura suddenly surged from all directions and pressed down on Xu Feng's body.
Xu Feng gritted his teeth and held on. Soon, he was covered in sweat from the pressure. The Sky-swallowing Rat looked around and said in a deep voice, "Greedy Wolf King, please show some respect to my friend. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk... The Sky-swallowing Rat, who always uses food as the sky, actually wants to be friends with humans? This is really funny!"
The voice of the Wolf King sounded in the void. Without saying another word, the Sky-swallowing Rat unleashed all of its violent Demon Essence Strength. It carried a chaotic and overbearing aura that swept across the entire void.
The pressure on Xu Feng's body was also reduced by more than half by the aura of the Sky-swallowing Rat, causing him to feel much more relaxed.
This kind of pressure... A battle of this level was no longer something Xu Feng could control. Just like what the Sky-swallowing Rat had said earlier, he wouldn't say anything. He just needed to wait for the Sky-swallowing Rat to finish dealing with it.
"I'm angry now. This is really boring. Hurry up and get lost!"
The Greed Wolf King seemed to be somewhat afraid of the Sky-swallowing Rat. When he saw that the Sky-swallowing Rat was about to attack, he immediately gave in. After his voice faded, the pressure disappeared, and the Greed Wolf King didn't speak anymore.
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, the wolf king continued to lead Xu Feng forward. After walking for a few days, they finally encountered the next Void Demonic Beast.
This time, the situation was similar to the last time. The Sky-swallowing Rat once again forced him to retreat, and the two of them continued forward.
With the protection of the Sky-swallowing Rat, they could even chat from time to time. This kind of journey was simply too comfortable.
"You can't be the boss of this ancient bronze path, right?"
After seeing the two Void Demonic Beast, Xu Feng also discovered that the status of the Sky-swallowing Rat was not ordinary. He couldn't help but ask tentatively.
"I would like to, but unfortunately, the time for the war isn't here yet. It won't be long before the war begins..."
The Sky-swallowing Rat smiled and shook his head. He did not continue speaking, but from his tone, Xu Feng could clearly feel some danger. He could not help but feel guilty in his heart.
