Chapter 1198

Giant Beast

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

The instant Zhou Chang was pushed back by Zhuowen, Zhou Bin led the Great Zhou Institute to Zhou Chang's side. Zhou Bin's eyes narrowed slightly as he coldly stared at Zhuowen and said, "Zhuowen, what is the meaning of this?"

Zhuowen's eyes were filled with wariness as he looked at Zhou Bin standing beside Zhou Chang. Zhou Bin's aura was even stronger than the Great Cang Mansion's Cangjie. Zhuowen estimated that this person was at least a fifth level Emperor. Such an expert was not someone he could contend against at the moment.

Zhuowen indifferently retorted, "Nothing much. This Profound Soul Ice Butterfly is my mount. This Zhou Chang doesn't know what's good for him and actually has designs on my mount. He's simply courting death. Is there anything wrong with me stopping him?"

"Haha!

This Profound Soul Ice Butterfly appeared on the Profound Ice Path. Why do you claim that it's yours the moment you arrive?

Zhuowen, you can't be so shameless. "Zhou Chang coldly snorted and mocked.

Although he was extremely wary of Zhuowen's strength, he naturally did not place Zhuowen in his eyes with Zhou Bin's support.

"Since Zhou Chang has already said so, it's obvious that you're trying to snatch it from him. You're really bold."

Zhou Bin's eyes were eerily cold as he took a step forward. Terrifying Emperor pressure gushed out as a wisp of killing intent completely locked onto Zhuowen, causing Zhuowen's body to stiffen.

Zhuowen's eyelids twitched violently. Zhou Bin had completely locked onto him with killing intent without any hesitation. How could he not know the reason behind this? It was definitely because Zhuowen had helped the Great Cang Mansion gain the limelight during the Hero Competition, causing the Great Zhou Institute to lose the qualifications to be the victor. Therefore, Zhou Bin was targeting him like this.

"Haha!

Zhou Bin, you're already so old, yet you're bullying the young. Don't you feel ashamed? "

A long laugh sounded from behind the instant Zhou Bin's killing intent locked onto Zhuowen. Soon after, another group that was not any weaker than the Great Zhou Institute landed near Zhuowen. The leader of the group landed beside Zhuowen. With a wave of his sleeve, he immediately withdrew the Emperor pressure released by Zhou Bin.

"Palace master Cangjie!"

Looking at the imposing figure beside him, Zhuo Wenyi bowed and spoke respectfully.

Cangjie smiled and said to Zhuo Wen, "You don't have to do that. Zhuo Wen, you are also a member of the Great Cang Mansion. If Zhou Bin wants to avenge his personal grudge, I, Cangjie, will not let him succeed."

Sure enough, Zhou Bin's face turned slightly ugly when he heard that. Although his strength was considered to be extremely strong among the seven Mansion Masters, Cangjie of the Great Cang Mansion was not weak either. If Cangjie really wanted to protect Zhuo Wen, there was nothing he could do.

"Zhou!

Let's wait and see. "

Zhou Bin's eyes flickered. In the end, he gave up on the conflict with the Great Cang Manor. Their goal in entering the Great Demon Sect Ruins was to obtain the numerous treasures of the Great Demon Sect. If they started a war with the Great Cang Manor because of Zhuowen, it would undoubtedly be an extremely unwise action.

As he spoke, Zhou Bin led the group from the Great Zhou Institute and Great Cang Manor to the other side of the Mysterious Ice Path.

"Let's go too."

Cangjie shot a glance at the Black Soul Ice Butterfly squatting beside Zhuowen. He did not say anything and merely gave a shout before leading the group and following closely behind. Every second was a race against time. If one's actions were not fast enough, all the treasures would be snatched away.

Zhuowen knew that Cangjie should have also recognized the Black Soul Ice Butterfly. However, he did not say anything. Evidently, he did not have any improper thoughts about Zhuowen's Black Soul Ice Butterfly. This caused Zhuowen to have a much better impression of him.

The two groups from the Great Cang Manor and the Great Zhou Institute also arrived at the stone hall at the exit of the Mysterious Ice Path. Zhou Bin and Cangjie also noticed the teleportation array at the center of the stone hall. However, they lost interest when they discovered that the teleportation array could not be activated.

"There are four stone doors here. The eastern door has already been opened. Perhaps behind these four doors is the passageway that leads to the depths of the Great Demon Sect Ruins." Zhou Bin's gaze landed on the already opened eastern door as he spoke in an indifferent voice.

"Won't we know once we go in?" Cangjie smiled.

Zhou Bin nodded. Soon after, he said, "From the looks of it, the stairs can only accommodate ten people at most. We will each send four people to follow the two of us into the eastern door. If there really is a passageway, we will use the Communication Jade Token to inform them."

Cangjie naturally did not have any objections. Soon after, the two great manor heads began to select the people to enter. Cangjie turned around and smiled, "Cang Yang, Cang Fei, Cang Yong and Zhuowen. The four of you will follow me."

Upon hearing this, Cang Yang, Zhuowen and the other three naturally acknowledged. They all knew that there was an eighty percent chance that there would be a unique treasure on the stairs. Therefore, the first batch of people to enter would basically be able to obtain considerable benefits.

However, within the Great Cang Institute group, Yao Zhesheng's heart turned cold. Cangjie did not pick him, but Zhuowen. It was very obvious that in Cangjie's heart, Yao Zhesheng's importance was far inferior to Zhuowen. This caused Yao Zhesheng's resentment towards Zhuowen to grow even more.

Zhou Bin was also one of the four people selected from the Great Zhou Institute group. Naturally, the two great geniuses, Zhou Hui and Zhou Chang, were among them. The gazes that the two of them used to look at Zhuowen were filled with hostility. Because of Zhuowen, the two of them had lost all face during the Hero Gathering. How could they possibly give Zhuowen any face?

Zhuowen did not pay too much attention to the numerous hostile gazes around him. What he cared about was the identity of the person who had completely repaired the teleportation array and teleported it away. In particular, the demonic nature on Cang Die's body was just too terrifying. Even though Zhuowen had the experience of cultivating the demonic path, he still felt a throbbing sensation from Cang Die's body at that time.

What he was most puzzled about was who exactly Cang Die was. Back then, when Cang Die had planned to search the Extreme Demon Sect ruins with Ze, he had already felt that something was amiss. Everything that had happened now coincidentally confirmed Zhuowen's initial premonition.

"I feel that Cang Die is somewhat related to the Extreme Demon Sect. Moreover, their relationship should be quite deep. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to repair such a complicated teleportation array in the stone hall by himself."

Xiao Hei's grave voice sounded out in Zhuowen's mind, causing Zhuowen to repeatedly nod his head. Soon after, Zhuowen softly sighed and transmitted a message, "Only by first entering the core area of the Extreme Demon Sect will we perhaps be able to find out who Cang Die is?"

"Yes!

You should be careful from now on. It would be best if you follow behind the Great Cang Mansion and the Great Zhou Institute. After all, Cang Jie and Zhou Bin are not weak and can help you sweep away many obstacles ahead. "

After Xiao Hei finished speaking, his voice gradually quietened down.

"Since we have already chosen our people, let's go up and take a look."

Zhou Bin waved his sleeves and took the lead to step onto the stairs with Zhou Chang and the other three. Not to be outdone, Cangjie followed closely behind. The group of ten quickly passed through the heavy mist above. Through the crack in front of the mist, they saw the long white jade bridge across the void and the Treasure Pavilion at the end of the long bridge.

"Treasure Pavilion?

Don't tell me there are treasures inside? "Zhou Bin stared at the pavilion and muttered in a low voice. Light flickered in his eyes.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Cangjie was rather decisive in his actions. After speaking, he stepped onto the long white jade bridge. Zhou Bin was naturally not to be outdone and followed behind Cangjie. The geniuses from the two manors followed behind the two manor heads and silently walked onto the long white jade bridge.

Zhuo Wen, on the other hand, followed behind him silently. No one knew what he was thinking.

The instant the ten of them were about to reach the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion, the entire long white jade bridge suddenly trembled violently. Soon after, a deafening roar sounded from the endless abyss below the bridge.

Swoosh!

Soon after, a several hundred feet large black shadow dashed out from the bottom of the abyss.

"Be careful!"

Zhou Bin and Cangjie shouted at the same time. Soon after, two terrifying Emperor auras gushed out. The two of them rushed out and directly rushed towards the huge black shadow.

Boom boom boom!

The earth quaked and the mountains swayed. Even the Treasure Pavilion trembled because of this vibration. Standing on the long bridge, Cang Yang, Zhuowen and the rest revealed looks of astonishment. One after another, they leapt into the air and hovered in the air as they stared at the terrifying and intense battle not far away.

Only then did Zhuowen see the true appearance of the black shadow that had suddenly rushed out from the abyss. The beast was more than a hundred feet long and looked like a tadpole. It was pitch-black and had horns on its back. Its tail was dozens of feet long like a fish's tail.

"There is such a terrifying giant beast in the abyss. This giant beast's power is not weaker than an ordinary mid-level Emperor. Moreover, its physical body is extremely terrifying." Zhou Chang muttered with a slightly pale face.

The other seven did not look any better. The giant beast's power was indeed terrifying. If the eight of them were to face this giant beast, they would probably be in deep trouble.

Zhuo Wen heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, he hadn't rashly gone to the Treasure Pavilion alone. If he had to face this giant beast alone, his fate wouldn't have been good.

Zhou Bin and Cangjie's strength was considered quite powerful among mid-level Emperors. Although the giant beast was ferocious and had a thick skin, it was still no match for Zhou Bin and Cangjie's combined strength.

With a mournful cry, the giant beast exploded into a cloud of blood mist under Zhou Bin and Cangjie's attacks. Countless drops of blood turned into a rain of blood and sprinkled down.

Swoosh swoosh!

Zhou Bin and Cangjie returned to the long white jade bridge. They were slightly out of breath and their chests were heaving up and down. Obviously, it was not easy for them to deal with this giant beast.

"What kind of Meta Beast is this? Why is it so difficult to deal with?" Zhou Bin frowned and asked.

Cangjie shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I don't know. Fortunately, the two of us joined forces. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to deal with if we were to face it alone."

"Let's not talk about this. Let's enter the Treasure Pavilion and have a look. Perhaps there will be good things inside."
