Now, the two of them didn't dare to breathe, fearing that they might alert the terrifying beast. Therefore, Wang Long couldn't ask Song Shuping about the specific name of this creature. However, just from Song Shuping's expression as an Ancient Deity, Wang Long could tell that its terror far exceeded his imagination.
After a long time, they finally saw its tail disappear into the distance. Song Shuping let out a long sigh of relief, while the gentle Shunshen was already drenched in cold sweat.
"What on earth is that thing? How can there be such a gigantic python in the world? I can sense a powerful Spiritual Essence emanating from it."
"That is Death Abyss. According to the records of the divine race, it has existed since Pangu the Giant God opened up the heavens and the earth. Legend has it that it once fought against Pangu the Giant God and was nearly killed by him, yet it managed to escape. Just think about it; if that's the case, how many years has this beast existed? And back then, it was already capable of battling Pangu the Giant God. Although it allied with other Ancient Beasts, it still shows how formidable its current strength must be."
Wang Long couldn't help but gasp in disbelief. "But this makes me very curious. Since it possesses such immense power, why does it need to sneak around instead of flying directly? Its speed would be slower this way, and its movements would be affected."
Song Shuping pondered for a moment and recalled what he had read about it: "Perhaps it's because it's getting close to its target now, so it's afraid of being discovered by others or scaring away its prey, which is why it's being so cautious. Don't be fooled by its enormous size; in fact, its Spiritual Essence grants it a strong ability to conceal itself. Most people wouldn't sense its malice or Spiritual Essence, and they might not even see such a massive creature with their naked eyes. By the time it decides to attack, it'll already be too late!"
Wang Long shivered at the thought. "Is its target nearby? Could it be after that Extraordinary Treasure that's about to emerge?"
"That's very likely. This will be quite chaotic; both the divine race and the Demon Clan see themselves as true hunters. But now they might not even have a grasp on how close they are to their prey or whether they'll end up breaking their own hunting nets."
Wang Long smiled wryly. "Right now, let's not even talk about them; I have no confidence either. There should be more than just this one Ancient Beast coming this time."
Song Shuping nodded. "If we've encountered such a creature upon our arrival here, there must be others approaching from different directions as well. Alas, it's a pity that this place has such beautiful scenery; before long, when the great battle begins, it'll likely turn into scorched earth. Wang Long, should we continue heading there?"
"Of course we should," Wang Long insisted. "If we need to confront them head-on, we wouldn't stand a chance against them anyway. But in this chaotic situation, they might not have time to pay attention to us small fries. Who knows what unexpected events might occur?"
Song Shuping could only smile bitterly; his biggest difference from Wang Long was that he couldn't imagine why Wang Long remained so optimistic and confident under any circumstances.
"However, you're right; as the situation becomes more complex, our plans must change accordingly. Given our current circumstances, even with your Instant Flash Technique, charging in like this would be too conspicuous and could easily make us targets for them. So it's better to follow behind that Death Abyss. With this Ancient Beast clearing the way ahead, who would notice us trailing behind?"
"Brilliant!" Song Shuping couldn't help but brighten up and had to admit that Wang Long's plan was indeed clever; it took advantage of people's psychological blind spots.
At this moment, in Regretless Forest, Brahma Demon King coldly listened to the reports from Demon Lord of the Great Blade and Iron War Demon Lord.
Having dispatched four precious Ancient Demon Lords to chase after a few insignificant characters only resulted in losing two Ancient Demon Lords without killing any of them!
In the Demon Clan, anyone who brought such a record to meet the Brahma Demon King would likely be so frightened that they could hardly speak.
This was indeed the case; the Iron War Demon Lord's tone during the report revealed his deep-seated fear, worried that he might be killed on the spot by the Brahma Demon King, leaving him with no chance to plead his case.
"The situation is as follows: in the end, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade decided to ignore those four enemies and return to report to Lord Brahma Demon King first before making further plans."
At this moment, the Iron War Demon Lord dared not mention that the Demon Lord of the Great Blade intended to regroup for defense; if he did, he couldn't guarantee that he would live long enough to finish speaking before the Brahma Demon King.
"Um, is what the Demon Lord of the Great Blade said true?" The expression on the Brahma Demon King's face was neither happy nor sad, but this only made it harder for others to discern what he was thinking.
More importantly, the Brahma Demon King often wore such an expression when he intended to kill!
Thus, everyone present dared not speak further, fearing they might become collateral damage.
The only one present who felt no fear of the Brahma Demon King was the Demon Lord of the Great Blade: "Indeed, Iron War Demon Lord has always been low-key and honest. Even if what he said isn't entirely true, over ninety percent of it is fact."
"Well, I didn't expect you to admit it directly. Do you think I need to expend a lot of effort to kill you?" This statement was filled with an overt threat of death. The Brahma Demon King's gaze grew colder, as if at that moment, the Demon Lord of the Great Blade was no longer a living person.
"Of course not. Moreover, if Lord Brahma Demon King were to take action, I would not resist in any way. However, before being executed, I have one thing I do not understand and hope to ask you about before I die."
"Unaware of your own fate!" Hearing that he was about to confess and die, the Giant Blade Demon King feigned calmness while another Ancient Demon Lord, who had always been at odds with him, couldn't help but scoff.
"Um?" The Brahma Demon King shot him a cold glance, causing him to lower his head immediately as cold sweat broke out.
Once everyone was subdued by his presence, the Brahma Demon King calmly said, "Speak. No matter what you have to say, considering you are nearly dead, I will grant you this request. After all, you have served me diligently for so many years."
"Thank you, Lord Brahma Demon King. My question is what unforgivable act I have committed that would lead you to want to execute me?"
"Uh, what is he saying?"
"This is too shameless! What does he think those fallen elite demon warriors are? What does he think about the deceased Water Crossing Demon Lord and Flying Spirit Demon Lord?"
At this moment, even the intimidation of the Brahma Demon King could not prevent these Ancient Demon Lords from becoming enraged. One by one, they pointed at the Demon Lord of the Great Blade, nearly spitting in his face.
"Hahaha, that's quite a good question!" The Brahma Demon King was actually amused by the Demon Lord of the Great Blade's anger. "Just now you asked me why I should execute you? Do you think you have achieved great merit this time? Have you forgotten what I once told you? Do not underestimate the enemy, do not be careless. This time, as long as you can force them away from here, that would be considered a success! But what about you? I thought among everyone here, your temperament was the most stable, yet you brought back the corpses of the Flying Spirit Demon Lord and Water Crossing Demon Lord as a report to me!"
Boom!
As the Brahma Demon King's tone grew increasingly furious, the entire sky showed signs of anomaly. A thunderclap sounded, shattering a distant stone tablet into pieces, causing those Demon Lords to feel even more anxious. They wished they could kill the Demon Lord of the Great Blade to prevent him from saying anything else that might provoke the Brahma Demon King.
—Would his wrath next time strike down someone present?
This thought crossed more than just one or two minds; at least the Iron War Demon Lord standing alongside the Demon Lord of the Great Blade was thinking this way.
"It is true that I have failed to complete Lord Brahma Demon King's task and should be punished. However, I believe this time it is an unjust fault, and I am not to blame." What was even more astonishing was that the face of the Demon Lord of the Great Blade was so thick-skinned; even if he was not afraid of death or provoking the Brahma Demon King further, he shouldn't be so shameless.
This time, instead of rushing to kill him, the Brahma Demon King waved his hand and said, "Then today let you speak freely. Explain how this is an unjust fault? I assigned three Ancient Demon Lords to you; is such strength not enough for you to suppress those three? Oh wait, it later became four; are you saying that your failure was due to your opponent being too strong?"
"On this point, I dare not argue. However, I want to remind Lord Brahma Demon King that first, the cunning of Wang Long from Zero Realm far exceeds anyone in our divine realm. Although I have been defeated by him, I feel that this loss is fair and justifiable. Moreover, the death of the Flying Spirit Demon Lord was a result of his own seeking death and has nothing to do with me. Secondly, only I could return while maintaining my current strength. If anyone other than Lord Brahma Demon King had gone in my place, it would not have merely resulted in losing two generals; perhaps it would have led to total annihilation! Therefore, I believe that Lord Brahma Demon King should not kill me."
