Chapter 526 - Step by Step
After stabilizing himself, Tang Huan did not stop and took his second step.
Indeed, it was as he expected. The deeper he went into the Demon Region, the stronger the suction force became. Even if he was only one step ahead, the suction force Tang Huan felt was a little stronger.
However, this power should only be effective against living beings or things that possess a soul. It's like the Bloodrose Sword had merged with the soul of the "Blood-eyed Fire Wolf", and it was immediately sucked into the Demon Area once it entered, while the Dragon and Phoenix Spear in Tang Huan's hands was not affected in the slightest.
Tang Huan calmed his mind and walked forward step by step. The suction force gradually became stronger and the Genuine Qi in his body also died out like water.
Unknowingly, Tang Huan had already moved forward more than twenty meters …
"Whoosh!"
A few hundred metres away, on the left side of the desert, a tall and sturdy figure was following the direction of the oasis. The person who had arrived was Cang Mo.
After walking for a while, Cang Mo's face lit up, and within his line of sight, a figure actually appeared.
Tang Huan!
Although they were very far away, Cang Mo still recognized his identity immediately.
However, in the next moment, his expression could not help but change, and his speed suddenly increased. However, the closer he got to that figure, the uglier his expression became.
After waiting outside the city for a while, he followed the walls of the city to the northwest side of the city. Finally, he saw the traces left behind by Ju Mo Sha in the north side of the city.
But that mark suddenly stopped near the Demon Area, and Tang Huan and Ju Mo Sha also disappeared without a trace.
After seeing the huge sandpit, he reckoned that Tang Huan must have killed Jiu Mo Sha and was on the way to look for the Demon Area, which made him worry.
If Tang Huan accidentally entered the vicinity of the Demon Area, then he would really be in danger.
Tang Huan had done a great favour to the group of people that he had killed. He did not want to see any accidents happen to Tang Huan, so he immediately rushed to the Demon Area to search around the Demon Area.
As expected, he found Tang Huan.
Fortunately, Tang Huan was still at the edge of the Infernal domain and had not been attracted away.
With Tang Huan's tyrannical strength, if he were to return at this moment, he should be able to leave the Demon Area safely.
"Tang …"
Cang Mo opened his mouth and was about to scream, but before he could even speak, he swallowed his words back. The cluster of gold that stood alone opposite him had already woken Cang Mo from his stupor. Why did Tang Huan want to enter the Demon Area?
He had only met Tang Huan today, but he could already tell that Tang Huan had an extremely deep relationship with that Spiritual Beast.
Since Tang Huan had already taken the first step, if he did not obtain the medicinal herb that could cure the Spiritual Beast's arrow wound, it would be impossible for him to leave the Infernal domain. If he suddenly spoke out now, not only would it not have any effect, it might even disturb Tang Huan. Once his attention was focused on something, it was very likely that he would be immediately sucked into the Demon Area.
Cang Mo took a deep breath. Even though he was extremely anxious, he could only forcefully suppress the anxiety in his chest.
Inside the Demon Area, Tang Huan's heart was as calm as still water, and he didn't in the slightest know that Cang Mo was right behind him in the desert. Xiao Budian sat on Tang Huan's neck with her two small claws holding onto Tang Huan's head.
The distance between Tang Huan and the "Blue Flame Emperor's Dragon Fragrance" had been reduced by about half, but the suction force had increased by at least fifty percent compared to when he had just entered the Demon Area.
If this trend continued, by the time he reached the 'Ashen Flames Emperor Dragon Aroma', the suction force would be twice as strong as it was before.
Walking in this kind of place, the speed at which the Genuine Qi was being drained had already reached an extremely frightening level. At first, Tang Huan was a little worried that he would not be able to last until the end. But now, he no longer thought about it further.
Thirty meters, forty meters, fifty meters …
Tang Huan advanced forward step by step.
In the center of the Gobi Desert outside of the Demon Region, Cang Mo was extremely anxious, yet his heart was filled with shock.
He had tried this Infernal domain ten years ago. With his strength at that time, he wouldn't dare to advance any further once he was within five meters of it. Of course, if he were to continue, he would probably be able to move another five meters. But as a result, there was only one result, and that was that he would never be able to get out of the demon realm.
Not only had he tried it, General Feng Wuye had also tried it all those years ago.
Feng Wu Ye's strength had naturally far surpassed the current him, but even so, he had only gone twenty meters deeper into the Infernal domain before he had no choice but to retreat. Even Feng Wuye, who was a Martial Saint of the Peak Stage Nine, was like this. An ordinary Stage Nine Martial Saint would probably only be able to take one or two steps in the Demon Area at most.
But right now, Tang Huan had already entered at least forty to fifty meters into the Demon Area.
Amongst the three clans, even Lord, who had lived for hundreds of years, and Demon Lord Fen Tian, who was known as the strongest of the three clans decades ago, might not be able to walk this far within the Demon Area like Tang Huan.
"How did he do it?"
Cang Mo was even more shocked, but other than feeling shocked, he was also more worried.
They had to travel several tens of meters deep into the Demon Area, and when they walked out, they had to cross the same distance. Inside the Demon Area, in order to resist that terrifying suction force, they had to exhaust a huge amount of energy at every second.
Time flew by bit by bit, Cang Mo clenched his fists tightly, his face tensed up as he stared unblinkingly at Tang Huan's back figure, his expression extremely tense.
Inside the Demon Area, Tang Huan still took one step after another.
"Hu!"
Suddenly, Tang Huan slowly hung the long spear on the lock on his back, and his hands quickly danced. A layer of jade-blue Qi quickly spread out from the surface of his body like a stream, covering both him and Xiao Budian's bodies. At almost the same time, the Genuine Qi barrier had already quietly disappeared.
After arriving here, Tang Huan's Genuine Qi was almost exhausted. Fortunately, Tang Huan still had the majestic and massive Mind Power. But even so, every step Tang Huan took forward was extremely difficult. Every time he took a step forward, his body would feel like it was about to float to fly, and he might not be able to control it at any time.
"There are only a few more meters left. I must hold on, I must not fall at the last moment!"
Tang Huan clenched his teeth, staring straight at the "Blue Flames Emperor's Dragon Fragrance". Compared to outside the Demon Area, the fragrance that rushed into his nose right now was already quite rich.
However, Tang Huan was no longer in the mood to savor that rich fragrance anymore. Step by step, step by step, step by step … The Mind Power in his body surged mightily, while the layer of dark blue aura on his body began to churn violently.
Within these short few meters, it seemed as if they were thousands of miles apart. But in the span of a few breaths, it seemed as if tens of thousands of years had passed …
After a few more steps, Tang Huan finally arrived in front of the "Blue Flame Emperor's Dragon Fragrance". His footsteps floated, and it was already difficult for him to stand stably.
