Chapter 86 In a Critical Moment, the King of Slaughter Enveloped in Killing Intent
The wind howled, and the footless bird flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
Tang San sat cross-legged on the back of the footless bird, holding Xiao Wu's hand, watching the changing scenery below with great curiosity.
Although he possessed the ability to fly using his soul bone, this was the first time he had ever used a mount to fly at such a height of thousands of meters.
"Brother Ye Ming, what kind of treasure is this?!"
Tang San used his soul power to resist the howling wind and asked curiously, "At this speed, even a Title Douluo probably can't match it!"
"If mass production can be achieved, it will surely change the course of the world."
Ye Ming smiled and shook his head. "This is a soul tool I obtained by chance. It can only be used once."
"I only have two left."
Hearing this, Tang San stopped asking questions.
Everyone has their own secrets. For example, he transmigrated to the Douluo Continent and possessed the secret techniques of the Tang Clan of Shu in his previous life, such as the Mysterious Heaven Skill, Ghost Shadow Tracking, and Crane Control and Dragon Capture...
He could sense that Ye Ming possessed quite a few secrets!
After all, no matter how talented someone is, it's impossible for them to break through from a Great Soul Master to a Soul Emperor in just two months on their own.
Even Tang San was alarmed by this terrifying speed of advancement.
However, no matter how many secrets Ye Ming has, Tang San will not covet them.
All he knew was that this was a cousin who was good to him and to Xiao Wu.
A person you can trust unconditionally!
As they got further and further away from Shrek Academy, Tang San looked into the distance, his heart surging with excitement.
He held Xiao Wu's hand, silently murmuring to himself, "It'll be soon, very soon."
"Xiao Wu, wait a little longer, and I will definitely bring you back to life."
Below the footless bird, Dai Mubai and the others pressed their faces against the window of the Dragon Abyss Boat, curiously looking at their surroundings, their hearts filled with anticipation.
Ye Ming also had high hopes.
"If the Vast Ocean Universe Cover refuses to acknowledge me as its master, then I wonder how many levels of difficulty the Sea God will lower in his assessment..."
He glanced at Tang San, who was sitting cross-legged, and thought to himself, "The remnant will of the Sea God is inside the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, which is a huge threat."
Ye Ming unfolded the nautical chart and looked at the huge blank area above, having already made up his mind.
The footless bird flew leisurely, and soon flew out of the territory of the Heavenly Dou Empire, heading towards the sea.
Now that Ye Ming possesses the Four-Turn Heavenly Yuan Treasure Lotus, and his True Essence has been upgraded to Golden True Essence, he can propel the Footless Bird to flight with almost no loss of True Essence.
Supporting a distance of thousands of miles is naturally not a problem for him.
Before noon, the footless bird successfully reached the seaside and, under Ye Ming's control, flew towards Poseidon Island.
Unlike the ever-changing mountains and grasslands on land, the air becomes salty and humid as soon as you enter the airspace above the sea.
Below is an endless blue ocean, and the sky is also a cloudless blue.
At that moment, it was as if the world had turned upside down, and the ocean was hanging overhead.
The footless bird is extremely fast. Apart from being careful of bird-type soul beasts flying towards it, it doesn't need to worry about other predatory soul beasts.
The footless bird, hailed as the number one flying mount below the fifth rank, surpasses most flying soul beasts on this continent.
Looking down, Ye Ming saw nothing but a deep blue expanse except for a few small islands that he occasionally spotted.
In such sea areas, it is extremely easy to lose one's way.
However, he had a nautical chart, so knowing a general flight direction was enough for him.
At this moment, Tang San, holding Xiao Wu's hand, looked at the ocean below and felt a strange sensation rising in his heart.
He felt waves of heat emanating from the Vast Ocean Universe Cover in his arms, slowly merging into his body.
His stagnant soul power actually increased slightly.
Tang San had a feeling that he was born to belong to this sea.
By this time, he was already quite eager to visit Poseidon Island.
"Brother, at our current speed, how long until we reach Poseidon Island?" he asked excitedly.
Ye Ming withstood the howling wind, his face calm and composed. "If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to reach the outer perimeter of Seagod Island by this afternoon."
Just as Tang San was about to speak, a sizzling sound suddenly came from behind him.
He turned his head and saw a thick cloud of blood mist chasing after the footless bird.
At the edge of this blood mist, occasionally, palm-sized blood-red bats would fly out.
Tang San looked at the scene in the distance, and his heart skipped a beat.
He sensed a strong killing intent within the crimson mist, somewhat similar to his God of Slaughter Domain, but far more malevolent.
Furthermore, this blood mist carries a highly corrosive and toxic substance!
Along the way, the air and clouds sizzled as they passed.
"Brother, speed up!" Tang San shouted suddenly, his mind racing with alarm bells.
The moment Ye Ming saw the blood-red mist, he immediately thought of the terrifying King of Slaughter.
Without Tang San urging him, he frantically channeled his true essence into the footless bird.
The legless bird flapped its skeletal wings suddenly, increasing its speed even further.
"This is the blood-red figure that drove away those ferocious beasts at the Haotian Sect back then," Ye Ming explained, then murmured, feigning ignorance:
"Wasn't he chasing those ferocious beasts? How did he end up here!"
"This is terrible!"
Ye Ming glanced at Tang San discreetly, then frantically urged the footless bird to accelerate.
Tang San touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little uneasy.
He sensed a familiar aura within the blood mist and was certain that this was likely the King of Slaughter from the City of Slaughter.
As for why the King of Slaughter would appear here?
Tang San guessed that this was probably because he had thrown a celestial herb into the Path of Hell, which completely destroyed the City of Slaughter.
The legless bird was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye it had reached the skies above the deep sea.
But the blood mist behind them clung on relentlessly, rapidly approaching them at an alarming speed.
"We can't escape!"
Ye Ming frowned. "High-altitude combat is extremely disadvantageous for us. Once the Bird Without Feet is destroyed, we'll be at their mercy!"
Tang San put Xiao Wu directly into his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch, stood up and stared at the blood mist behind him, his Blue Silver Grass in his hand itching to be used.
"Brother, you control this giant bird and find an island to land on. I'll hold off this King of Slaughter!"
He glanced down at his feet, his expression full of worry, and said, "Otherwise, if they crash from a great height, Mu Bai and the others will be in real trouble!"
Ye Ming nodded, looking at the place so close on the sea chart, and frantically urged the footless bird to gallop away.
Just then, the blood mist behind them rapidly contracted, and countless palm-sized bats merged into a figure wearing a blood-red robe.
"Hehehe, I finally caught you, you damned brat!"
"You lowly life dared to destroy the City of Slaughter! Even tearing you to pieces wouldn't make up for the loss to the City of Slaughter!"
"How dare you poison the great River of Blood! What kind of poison is it?! Hand over the antidote now, or I'll drink your blood, tear your bones apart, and boil them into soup piece by piece!!"
The King of Slaughter's crimson wings flapped behind him as he followed closely behind the footless bird, his sinister eyes fixed on the crowd.
His wings flapped behind him, and he rapidly approached the group with an intense aura of power.
Tang San watched the approaching King of Slaughter and chuckled, "Has the City of Slaughter been destroyed?"
"Hehehe, good that it's destroyed! At least my immortal herb wasn't wasted!"
"That's right, it was me who poisoned it! Actually, it wasn't really a poison, but rather a Snow Swan Kiss plant. It only had one effect: to activate..."
"Bloody Mary from Killing City contains a slow-acting toxin that can subtly alter a person's mind and body. I added this herb, which amplifies its effects a thousandfold."
Tang San looked at the approaching King of Slaughter in the distance, a smug look flashing across his face.
"It seems my judgment on the drugs was correct. I am honored to be the destroyer of the Killing City."
"That disgusting and wicked place doesn't deserve to exist in this world!"
Listening to their conversation, Ye Ming sighed silently and frantically mobilized his true energy.
He thought Tang San was really asking for trouble.
That was his great-grandfather, a near-god-level powerhouse. Even if he was parasitized by the Bat King, he was still someone they couldn't afford to mess with.
Tang San's arrogant words only angered the other party.
He looked at the blank area on the nautical chart and thought to himself, "We're almost there!"
If Tang San can stall for a little longer, this stalemate will surely be broken!
Upon hearing Tang San's words, the King of Slaughter was on the verge of going berserk. Suppressing his anger and bloodlust, he urgently asked:
"Damn it, where's the antidote?"
"Give me the antidote!!"
"Antidote?" Tang San frowned. "Wait while I look for it."
His mind searched through the moonlit night of the Twenty-Four Bridges, then he suddenly pulled out a jade box, threw it downwards, and roared:
"Want the antidote? Go get it yourself!"
The King of Slaughter's body suddenly transformed into a streak of blood-red light, flying abruptly towards the direction where the jade box had fallen.
Seeing that he had temporarily escaped the King of Slaughter, Tang San's composure vanished, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother, is there any way to resolve this?"
Ye Ming sighed, "That's a powerhouse nearing their peak; even I would struggle to withstand them!"
"Right now, we probably have no choice but to find an island and fight to the death!"
Tang San frowned, sighed, and nodded: "Alright! In that case, let's fight to the death, brothers!"
"Let's see just how powerful this giant Sumeru hammer that Father taught us really is!"
At this moment, Tang San looked at a huge island in the distance that resembled a whale and said intently, "Brother, land over there. We can't avoid it, so let's fight!"
In fact, without Tang San saying anything, Ye Ming had already urged the footless bird to fly towards the island below.
This place was one he specifically chose!
At this moment, the King of Slaughter opened the jade box and found it empty, realizing that Tang San had been playing a trick on him!
"Bastard!! I'll kill you!!"
His eyes flashed with bloodlust, clearly his bloodlust had been completely ignited.
Ignoring the injuries he had sustained from Di Tian, he unleashed a burst of bloody light and forcefully channeled his soul power to traverse countless distances, arriving behind Tang San.
His two hands, covered in long, blood-red nails that resembled claws, pierced straight towards Tang San's chest!
