Therefore, Duan Gujin surmised that the Demon Stone had locked onto his location, and the Blood Snake had locked onto the Demon Stone's location.

As a result, the Blood Snake was able to keep up with him.

He didn't want this situation to persist, so he hastily consumed a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk. Once his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power were somewhat recovered, he continued to use the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps.

He executed the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps several times in succession, traversing kilometers across the Void.

Yet, despite this, he still couldn't shake off the tracking of the Demon Stone behind him.

"Good heavens! The capabilities of that Demon Stone are too terrifying!"

Duan Gujin was certain that the ability to track him definitely wasn't due to the Blood Snake behind him, but the Demon Stone.

"Stay where you are, devil in front!"

Suddenly, on his path, Duan Gujin heard an angry roar coming from ahead.

Following that, he saw a dazzling light suddenly illuminate the sky in front of him.

His complexion changed dramatically, immediately realizing that a master of the Martial Emperor Realm had made a move ahead.

From the previous roar, he deduced that the one who had spoken must be a master of the Human Clan's Martial Emperor Realm.

The next moment, he heard a huge Thunder Ball appear rapidly in the Void in front of him.

The Thunder Ball crackled and popped, and when it exploded, the entire sky above the abandoned mine shaft was lit up by the lightning arcs.

Duan Gujin's complexion changed drastically, and he hurriedly executed the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps, rapidly dodging the thunder and lightning ahead.

This time, he used the Heavenly Demon Nine Steps to escape down below the abandoned mine shaft.

Thus, when the thunder and lightning exploded in the Void, it did not affect him in the slightest.

"How powerful!"

Landing on the ground, Duan Gujin's complexion changed dramatically. He extended his Divine Sense, trying to find the Human Clan master who had released the Thunder Ball.

However, after a while, he still couldn't find the Human Clan master.

Meanwhile, the Demon Stone behind him was squarely hit by the Thunder Ball.

A loud boom echoed, and a deafening explosion resonated through the entire sky above the abandoned mine shaft.

Seeing the Demon Stone ahead being struck by the Thunder Ball, deep fear surged within the Blood Snake.

The fear that sprang from deep within it stemmed from its terror of lightning; it imagined if it had been hit by that Thunder Ball, it would definitely be writhing in agony right now.

"Luckily, the Thunder Ball didn't strike me!"

Thinking such, the Blood Snake extended its Divine Sense, looking around—it wanted to find the master who had released the Thunder Ball.

But even as it extended its Divine Sense, it could not find the Human Clan master, and its heart suddenly sank.

Duan Gujin locked his Divine Sense onto the Demon Stone above, wanting to see what would happen to it next.

After a while, he saw the Demon Stone standing still in the sky, motionless.

However, he didn't see any signs of the Demon Stone cracking apart.

Still, he couldn't determine whether the Demon Stone was afraid of lightning or not.

After a while, another huge Thunder Ball appeared in the distant sky.

The Thunder Ball, covered in constantly flickering arcs of electricity, quickly took shape on the spot.

Moments later, after the Thunder Ball had grown larger, it dove straight towards the Demon Stone.

After consuming a drop of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, Duan Gujin just waited on the ground for his Primordial Power and Spiritual Power to recover.

He could only stay put now, watching how the Thunder Ball would strike the Demon Stone; he no longer planned to run away.

"I'll just watch here a bit longer!"

With a thunderous boom, the Demon Stone was once again solidly hit by the Thunder Ball.

But the Demon Stone seemed unaffected, remaining stable and suspended in mid-air.

"Good heavens! What is that blood-red stone ahead? Why can it withstand my Thunderous Fury twice in a row?"

A martial expert from the Human Clan at the Martial Emperor Realm who was hiding in the void saw the immovable Demon Stone and couldn't help but feel some fear.

He was merely passing by this place, but he sensed a sudden emergence of three auras behind him.

He didn't know if the three auras were friends or foes, so he released his Divine Sense to probe those three auras.

Very soon, he discovered that the one leading the way was a Human Clan youth whose cultivation was at the Martial Sect Realm, followed by a blood-red bizarre stone, and behind the bizarre stone was a Blood Snake.

He had previously ventured deep into an abandoned ore vein, aware of the presence of Blood Snakes; he had even sneaked near their lair once.

But no sooner had he entered the lair of the Blood Snakes than he was discovered by them.

After a confrontation, he realized that not only were these Blood Snakes numerous, but each possessed formidable strength.

Even though his cultivation had reached the Sixth Level of Martial Sect, he knew it was unlikely that he could defeat those Blood Snakes.

This time, Duan Gujin followed the position from where the Thunder Ball had emitted and after some searching, he finally found the Human Clan expert who had released the Thunder Ball.

What shocked him was that he never expected the martial artist who made the move to be Shi Potian.

Seeing Shi Potian again, Duan Gujin's face changed slightly; he did not expect to encounter Shi Potian here.

"Brother Shi Potian, is that you?"

Thus, Duan Gujin began shouting loudly.

Upon hearing Duan Gujin's shout, Shi Potian, who was hiding in the void, slightly frowned, not expecting his real name to be recognized.

He immediately thought it must be the young man among the three figures ahead who was calling out to him.

So, he looked in the direction of the voice.

After a few glances, he recognized that the youth was Duan Gujin, whom he had met on the Fire Cloud Continent.

"Duan Gujin, I didn't expect us to meet again!"

Shi Potian said with a mix of shock and delight.

"Yes, Brother Shi, please make your move and take care of that Blood Snake, it's a villain!"

Duan Gujin spoke directly.

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, the Blood Snake was enraged to the point of bursting.

"You're the villain, your entire family are villains!"

The Blood Snake felt extremely depressed in its heart; it hadn't done anything but had been falsely accused by Duan Gujin, naturally, it was exceedingly grievous.

In its heart, Duan Gujin was the absolute villain.

Not only had he killed its subordinates and stolen its Spiritual Pearl Demon Fruit, but he had also 'enticed' away the Demon Stone.

Everything Duan Gujin had done was enough to justify its desire to kill him.

It couldn't believe that instead of repenting, Duan Gujin was turning the tables and calling it the villain.

It suddenly felt so furious it wanted to tear Duan Gujin into thousands of pieces, grinding his bones to dust.

After hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shi Potian knew that the other party was alright, his eyes flickered, and a question crossed his mind; he was very eager to know how Duan Gujin had entered the Jiuzhou Continent again.

"Brother Shi, please stop that Demon Stone!"

Duan Gujin shouted.

"Demon Stone?"

Hearing Duan Gujin's words, Shi Potian's pupils contracted sharply; he now recognized that the stone bombarded by his Thunder Balls was the Demon Stone.

A Demon Stone, that's a treasure!

Shi Potian's eyes suddenly gleamed with excitement.

The reason he had not recognized the stone as the Demon Stone was due to the distance between him and the stone, which was too far for him to see clearly what it was.
