Chapter 517: Is That Demon Beast Your Relative?

Translator: Noodletown Translated  Editor: Noodletown Translated

Bang! It sounded like Su Han was fighting.

Suddenly, a dash of white light flew from the depth of the Demon Sea like a broken kite.

Hao Ren stepped on his sword energy as he rushed over to catch Su Han.

“GO!” Su Han grabbed onto Hao Ren’s arm and dragged him away rapidly.

She looked pale and was covering her stomach. It was evident that she was severely wounded.

Usually, there shouldn’t be level 10 demon beasts in the outskirts of the Demon Sea. If Su Han had bumped into level 8 or 9 demon beasts, she could still fight them off.

However, a level 10 demon beast was only one step away from transforming into a human. Even though it was still weaker than a Soul Formation Realm cultivator, it was still stronger than a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.

Su Han was a top-tier Qian-level cultivator, which was equivalent to a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. She was no match for a level 10 demon beast.

Su Han’s luck was terrible. The level 10 demon beast was cultivating, and Su Han was sneaking around its little ‘garden.’

This level 10 demon beast didn’t bother to attack her because it was crazier about cultivation than Su Han. It would use every second to absorb the nature essence around it to reach the Transformation Realm as soon as possible.

However, Su Han had picked three Black Dragon Bone Grasses from its ‘garden.’

This demon beast got mad, and Su Han’s stealth technique was useless in front of this demon beast.

Since this demon beast was like a natural black reef in the deep seas and didn’t have an aura at all, Su Han had no clue it was there.

While she was looking around for Snow Crystal Corals, it slammed its claws into her.

Even though Su Han reacted quickly, but it still hit her longsword and sent her flying.

Roar!

The level 10 demon beast roared to show its dominance. It didn’t come chasing, but the entire region shook, and huge waves appeared.

Hao Ren rushed to get out an essence replenishment pill and fed it to Su Han.

Su Han only concentrated on cultivating, so her real-life fighting experience was far behind Zhao Kuo. It was her first time risking her life to sneak into the Demon Sea, and she had already faced such obstacles.

She looked pale and didn’t have any energy. If it weren’t for Hao Ren holding on to her, she wouldn’t be able to swim at all.

The level 4 essence replenishment pill slid through Hao Ren’s fingers and into her mouth, and she was finally able to breathe normally again. If she weren’t at top-tier Qian-level, she would have died here at the Demon Sea from that hit.

“Hey, are you okay?” Hao Ren sounded worried as he supported her back with his arm.

Su Han turned her head to Hao Ren and was a bit touched. Hao Ren only came to help her distract the low-level demon beasts, and she never expected him to save her life.

“I’m ok.” Su Han returned to her usual self again. She used her fingers to flick Hao Ren’s hand on her back, and Hao Ren sensed the pain and quickly let her go from his arms.

Su Han then checked her items and realized that the three Black Dragon Bone Grasses, as well as her longsword, were lost.

As long as the natal dharma treasure wasn’t broken, there would be no effect on the body. However, she lost it in the Demon Sea, so it was something quite concerning.

“Where’s your sword?” Hao Ren didn’t care about the spiritual herbs, but he was worried about Su Han’s natal dharma treasure.

In this Demon Sea, there was no way that Su Han would out her natal dharma treasure back into her body during battle. That was why he thought she lost it while fighting off the level 10 demon beast.

The natal dharma treasure was connected to Su Han spiritually, so losing it was no joke. When Hao Ren got the Coil Dragon Golden Spear from Zeng Yitao, the latter was incredibly anxious.

For Qian-level cultivators like Su Han, she was fully connected with her natal dharma treasure. If a demon beast bit her longsword into halves, Su Han’s life would be in danger.

Su Han sensed the location of her longsword using her spiritual senses. She wanted to command the longsword to fly over, but her meridians were all in a mess, and the longsword only moved slightly in the sea; she could not control it and fly it back.

She frowned and looked incredibly nervous and anxious. Hao Ren felt sympathetic toward her, which was something that was unusual.

“I’ll go get it for you,” Hao Ren first helped Su Han to stand up straight in the sea and then said with an anxious expression.

“Hey. No!” Su Han rushed to grab Hao Ren’s hand.

“It’s OK.” Hao Ren smiled and suddenly decided that he was going to take this risk for Su Han.

When the level 8 and 9 demon beasts charged toward him at Purple Bamboo Island, Hao Ren saw the fear in their eyes. That was probably why they suddenly turned around and escaped.

When Hao Ren faced the level 8, spider-form demon beast at the West Ocean Dragon Palace, it was also scared and didn’t counterattack after Hao Ren pulled out his sword energies from its body.

Level 8 and level 9 demon beasts had intelligence, so there must be a reason behind their fears.

Hao Ren had never encountered a level 10 demon beast before, but he was still willing to gamble.

If it didn’t work out, he still had the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting so that he could escape with full power.

“Come back…” Su Han yelled as she watched Hao Ren go into the depths of the Demon Sea. However, she was wounded so that she couldn’t even stand up. All she could do was watch Hao Ren disappear into the black mist of the Demon Sea.

“Don’t mess around!” Hao Ren heard Su Han’s voice from the token as he entered the Demon Sea.

Su Han was worried about her natal dharma treasure, but she worried about Hao Ren more.

“What’s the position?” Hao Ren asked calmly through the inspector’s token.

“Come up. My sword will be fine. I’ll get it back when I recover,” Su Han said.

“Why are you nagging now?” Hao Ren asked again, “What’s the position?”

Su Han clenched her teeth and sensed her longsword and Hao Ren’s position.

“It’s in front of you to the left. You’re about two kilometers away from it. The level 10 demon beast is near there. You shouldn’t go.”

“I won’t do anything to it. I’ll just take the sword and come back.” Hao Ren moved his legs and swam to the location that Su Han mentioned.

It probably wasn’t a good idea to play tricks in front of the level 10 demon beast.

Hao Ren held onto two hundun sword energies in his hands and hid the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting in his sleeves. If anything happened, he was ready to escape.

Hao Ren was getting closer and closer. He didn’t dare to use spiritual senses, so he released dozens of small sword energies and used them to look for Su Han’s sword around him.

Roar… the level 10 demon beast moved its body.

It was like a large reef covering the bottom of the sea. When it moved by two meters, all the seaweed and dust moved.

“I’ll just take the dharma treasure and leave,” Hao Ren said.

The level 10 demon beast had intelligence already. Hao Ren didn’t know if this level 10 demon beast understood what he said, but he was sure that it had locked onto him as a target.

Roar… The level 10 demon beast gave another shout.

Since Hao Ren now had Little White for a while, he could tell that this demon beast wasn’t angry from its roar. He carefully walked on the bottom of the sea and tried to find Su Han’s longsword.

Dang… He felt something hard.

He hurried to pick it up and saw that it wasn’t Su Han’s longsword. Instead, it was a very ancient-looking bow. It seemed to be made of bronze, and it felt cold. However, there was no rust on it.

Hao Ren didn’t know archery, but he liked how this bow felt in his hands.

“Which unlucky cultivator dropped his dharma treasure here?” Hao Ren thought.

The level 10 demon beast was still looking at him, so Hao Ren had to gently put down this bow and continued to search for Su Han’s white sword.

Even though this dharma treasure was good, he couldn’t just take it. He was only here to find Su Han’s white jade sword, and that was the promise.

If he angered this demon beast, there would be severe consequences.

Ding… Hao Ren’s finger touched something cold and hard.

He picked it up and realized that it was Su Han’s white jade sword.

“Yes, this is it. Come back.” Su Han’s voice sounded in Hao Ren’s mind.

Hao Ren took the white jade sword and quietly retreated.

The demon beast’s spiritual senses were still locked onto Hao Ren.

Boom… The level 10 demon beast started moving again.

The entire bottom of the sea shook as this demon beast moved. The size of this demon beast was nothing that Hao Ren had expected! It was huge!

Hao Ren was about to throw out the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting to escape, but the demon beast’s claws were aiming at his chest.

“Damn. Cheating!”

Hao Ren threw out the two hundun sword energies that he had prepared.

The lightning energy hit the demon beast’s claws, and it let out a sizzling, burning sound.

Hao Ren stood on the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting and flew toward the surface.

It was similar to the traveling speed of a Soul Formation Realm cultivator.

“Hurry and come back!” Su Han’s voice resonated in Hao Ren’s mind, and she sounded incredibly nervous and worried.

Bam! Hao Ren didn’t know whether the level 10 demon beast was chasing him or not, but he still flew to the surface of the ocean with full power using the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting.

Peng… He returned to Su Han’s side and grabbed onto her to continue escaping.

Su Han was now in the territory of East Ocean, but no one could guarantee that the angered level 10 demon beast would not chase them out the Demon Sea.

Boundaries were nothing to these demon beasts!

Hao Ren injected his hundun energy into the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting and continued to escape. When he calmed down, he had already flown hundreds of kilometers on the River-Mountain Qian-Kun Painting. They were very close to land now.

He looked down at Su Han and saw that he had been hugging her tightly with his right arm.

She was in a wet silky black robe, and she looked extremely alluring. Hao Ren rushed to take his hand off Su Han’s waist.

“Hey… Your sword.” Hao Ren put the white jade sword in front of Su Han to try to divert the topic.

Su Han, who was all wet, inspected the white jade sword. She found that the sword was not at all damaged and hurried to put it back in her body.

She turned to Hao Ren and saw that behind him… there was an aquatic plant attached to his back. On that aquatic plant were three Black Dragon Bone Grasses, a Sky-Breaking Bow, and a thumb-size Blue Water Pearl.

Sky-Breaking Bow wasn’t a name Su Han made up; these characters were engraved on the body of this ancient bow.

When Su Han saw these things, she was shocked, and her beautiful eyes were wide open.

Hao Ren felt a bit scared when he saw Su Han staring at him with such widely-opened eyes. He couldn’t help but shake his body and maintain a reasonable distance from her.

When they were escaping, he had hugged Su Han tightly. Now that they were safe, Su Han would for sure take her revenge…

“Is that demon beast… your relative?” Su Han finally asked.
