Chapter 236 - Escape
Two figures stumbled out of the primordial forest and descended before the sea of bones.
“Thank you for saving me, master.”
The Blood Crow King said with lingering fear.
If not for the Blood Crow Palace’s Lord, given its own strength, it would not have been able to make it out of the primordial forest.
The Palace Lord nodded and turned back to look at the remnant ferocious beasts that were gradually retreating in the forest before heaving a sigh of relief.
Even with his strength as a Void Reversion, he had to exercise caution while crossing that primordial forest.
If he had truly encountered the king of the forest, even he would have to retreat to protect himself.
“Master, are we still chasing? That lad’s only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Could he have truly made it out of that primordial forest?” The Blood Crow King’s tone was clearly filled with doubt.
There were only two possibilities now.
If the other party could cross the sea of bones, he would definitely die.
The second scenario was that the white boned ferocious beasts in the sea of bones would kill off all of his pursuers!
Su Zimo did not dare to take the gamble.
Looking at the rope that was tying him up, Su Zimo tried to budge but realized that it did not show signs of loosening.
Sneering internally, Su Zimo released his blood qi explosively.
Bang! Boom! Boom!
His bloodline churned within his body, letting out a rich demonic qi as blood filled his flesh while his tendons shook – Su Zimo’s body was expanding!
“Buzz!”
The Demon Suppressing Rope shone brightly, forming a resplendent atmosphere, before suppressing Su Zimo’s blood qi instantly!
“Ugh!”
Su Zimo’s expression changed as he grunted.
The Demon Suppressing Rope did not loosen. Instead, it dug deeper into Su Zimo’s flesh such that blood oozed out, staining his green robes.
Instantly, Su Zimo calmed his blood qi and allowed his body to return to normal.
The wounds that were inflicted on his body by the Demon Suppressing Rope were nothing but superficial wounds.
With Su Zimo’s immense healing powers, he would be able to recover very quickly.
However, how he should escape remained a tricky problem.
Su Zimo could not just wait foolishly for the gray robed cultivator to return and undo the Demon Suppressing Rope for him.
He would probably be a dead man by then.
A thought flashed through Su Zimo’s mind.
Since he was unable to break free from it directly, how about attempting Tendons Transformation?
A series of crackling sounds could be heard from Su Zimo’s body as his tendons and bones echoed at the same time.
Su Zimo’s figure shrank rapidly at a discernible pace.
In the blink of an eye, he had shrunk to a mere meter tall and was extremely short!
However, to Su Zimo’s shock, the Demon Suppressing Rope had changed along with him! It kept shrinking while remaining tightly wrapped around his body such that he couldn’t escape!
This was the reason why the Demon Suppressing Rope was so powerful.
After demon beasts manage to cultivate an Inner Core, they could alter their appearances and take on a human form, no matter what sort of massive beasts they originally were.
However, if they were bound by the Demon Suppressing Rope, they would not be able to escape no matter the sort of transformations they undertook!
Su Zimo was at his wit’s end.
Right then, Night Spirit came over and extended its sharp claws that flashed with a cold glint. It hooked onto the rope and tore it apart continuously!
Moments later, the Demon Suppressing Rope snapped!
The moment it snapped, the light on the Demon Suppressing Rope dimmed and it fell from Su Zimo’s body.
Su Zimo was elated.
“Heeya!”
With an urging cry, Night Spirit turned around and sprinted up the mountain.
Su Zimo followed hurriedly.
