At the entrance of the valley, Tuoba Tao and Gu Kun descended from the sky, appearing before the Little Kui Snake, their eyes filled with surprise and excitement.
"Roar!" The Little Kui Snake let out a furious roar, but it was immediately suppressed by the powerful aura of the two.
"Boom!"
The terrifying pressure forced the Little Kui Snake to the ground instantly, rendering it unable to resist.
They were two peak-level experts, while the Little Kui Snake was only at the second stage. It had no power to resist.
"Little beast, you dare to resist us? Truly a piece of trash with no IQ," Tuoba Tao sneered.
"An unexpected harvest, haha, excellent, three Kui Snakes. This time, we two are destined to be among the strongest to gain the most from this world!" Gu Kun laughed heartily, extending a massive hand and patting the Little Kui Snake's head.
"Roar! Roar!"
In the valley, the two adult Kui Snakes roared upon seeing this, their eyes scarlet red, desperately resisting the suppression and wanting to break free.
Unfortunately, they were severely injured and could not break out.
"Heh, you two beasts are anxious? You chased us so fiercely before," Tuoba Tao said with a gleam of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Just trash with no IQ. I really don't know which despicable and shameless human snatched your exotic fruit. Your offspring are still alive, why did you two pieces of trash chase us so desperately before?"
Gu Kun also spoke, his eyes filled with unwillingness and anger. He continued,
"It's hateful that that shameless human didn't die, otherwise."
"Otherwise what?"
As Gu Kun's words trailed off, a voice suddenly sounded from the side. It was Li Xiaotian, who had emerged from the Little Kui Snake's Great Dao space.
Instantly, the valley fell silent. Tuoba Tao and Gu Kun froze, their eyes wide as they stared at Li Xiaotian, who had appeared out of nowhere. Their faces were filled with disbelief, quickly followed by terror.
"Otherwise what? Are you deaf when I'm asking you a question?" Li Xiaotian inquired, looking at the two with amusement. He was somewhat surprised to encounter these two enemies.
It seemed that everything had begun because of these two.
"You, you, this is impossible!!" Gu Kun's voice trembled, and cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead. He couldn't figure out how he could possibly encounter Li Xiaotian here.
Recalling the scene of Li Xiaotian's previous rampage, Gu Kun immediately felt a chill run through his body.
"Escape!"
Suddenly, Tuoba Tao turned and fled without the slightest hesitation. He was filled with regret, wishing he hadn't been so eager to separate from the main army.
Seeing this, Gu Kun also wanted to flee, but with a casual glance from Li Xiaotian, he became terrified, too scared to even move.
"Rumble!"
Watching Tuoba Tao, who had already fled over a thousand meters, Li Xiaotian reached out and grabbed.
Instantly, a colossal hand blotted out the sky, covering Tuoba Tao in the blink of an eye.
"No!!" Tuoba Tao roared to the sky, erupting with a terrifying aura. He wanted to resist, he wanted to live.
Unfortunately, Li Xiaotian was no longer what he used to be. Even divine race experts like Shen Yue were no match for him, let alone Tuoba Tao, a demon.
In an instant, a palm strike descended, and Tuoba Tao's body exploded.
Immediately after, Li Xiaotian scooped up Tuoba Tao's remains and brought them before him, allowing the latter to recover.
Seeing this, Gu Kun's heart sank to the bottom. He knew he was doomed!
"Teacher, thank you!" The Little Kui Snake's consciousness transmitted, filled with gratitude.
Hearing this, Gu Kun's eyes widened, and a storm of shock erupted within him. The Kui Snake could speak? Its intelligence had been awakened?
How was this possible?!
Gu Kun looked at Li Xiaotian in horror, as if he had seen a ghost. The news that a Kui Snake possessed intelligence was more shocking to him than the death of a divine race member.
After all, it had never been heard of for Kui Snakes to have intelligence since ancient times.
He instinctively looked at Li Xiaotian. Had he awakened the Kui Snake's intelligence? He thought of Li Xiaotian's heaven-defying Great Dao power, containing a strange devouring force that devoured everything, as well as his magical hiding abilities.
What was the identity of this human before him?
Unfortunately, he would never know the answer.
"Sir, spare our lives, we are willing to offer everything!" At this moment, the recovered Tuoba Tao said to Li Xiaotian, his intestines filled with regret.
Gu Kun also quickly begged for mercy, but Li Xiaotian ignored them.
Next, Li Xiaotian broke the seals on the two Kui Snakes. During this process, Tuoba Tao and the other remained motionless, quietly watching Li Xiaotian work.
"Roar! Roar!"
The two Kui Snakes broke free from their seals and madly charged at Tuoba Tao and Gu Kun. The latter two did not dare to resist, only pleading with Li Xiaotian for mercy, even offering to swear allegiance to Li Xiaotian as their master.
Unfortunately, for the current Li Xiaotian, these two were too weak; he didn't care about them.
In the blink of an eye, Tuoba Tao and Gu Kun were swallowed by the Kui Snakes. The unfortunate pair, who had thought they were coming here to seize opportunities by leaving the army, had instead lost their lives.
Li Xiaotian then left the area with the three Kui Snakes. With the Little Kui Snake present, the two adult Kui Snakes, despite their vigilance towards Li Xiaotian, ultimately had no match.
Of course, even if they had attacked, they would not have been a match for Li Xiaotian.
Li Xiaotian led the three Kui Snakes, continuously advancing in a direction away from the Great Dao Tree. Although he knew that Shen Yue and the others had suffered heavy losses, he did not want to face them yet.
After all, he was unsure if reinforcements would arrive.
