Chapter 2179: Pursuit and Escape!
On the other side.
At this moment, Zhou Yu was fleeing while simultaneously channeling the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder, trying to attack the Rhino Thunder behind him.
As six or seven arm-thick bolts of Thunder Light blasted out wildly—
The Rhino Thunder behind him instantly showed an excited expression.
It opened its mouth, and a streak of rainbow light sprayed out.
The Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder that Zhou Yu had blasted out was swallowed in an instant.
Immediately after, the Rhino Thunder revealed a look of satisfaction, and its gaze on Zhou Yu grew even more fervent.
Seeing this scene, the corner of Zhou Yu’s eye twitched.
He felt that he had just done something stupid.
Zhou Yu immediately gathered all the Power Of Thunder around his body back into himself, no longer giving that Rhino Thunder even the slightest temptation.
At the same time, he once again pushed his wings and the Thunder Banner to full power, fleeing madly.
In this period of time, Zhou Yu estimated that he had already fled hundreds of thousands of li.
But the Rhino Thunder still pursued relentlessly.
Of course, this Rhino Thunder wasn’t just blindly chasing.
Every time it closed in on Zhou Yu, the horn on its head would erupt with terrifying Thunder Light, blasting toward Zhou Yu.
However, these Thunder Skills might have enormous killing power against others.
But Zhou Yu himself also played with Thunder.
His control over Thunder far surpassed that of ordinary people.
Therefore, Zhou Yu could easily neutralize the Rhino Thunder’s attacks.
Like this, as long as it didn’t catch up to Zhou Yu, the Rhino Thunder seemed to have no good way to deal with him.
However, although Zhou Yu could easily neutralize the Rhino Thunder’s Power Of Thunder—
The Primordial Power contained within the Rhino Thunder’s attacks was something Zhou Yu could not dispel.
Thus, with every attack, Zhou Yu’s body endured an unimaginable burden.
If this went on for too long, his physical body might directly collapse.
So Zhou Yu’s current situation was actually growing more and more dangerous.
At this moment, Zhou Yu’s mind spun rapidly as he pondered a way to escape.
He went over all the methods he had on him.
The ones that might be useful were actually just three.
The first was the Fire-eyed Flying Ants.
At present, there were already tens of thousands of Fire-eyed Flying Ants in the Four Directions Realm.
And all of them had reached the level of Level 4 Demon Beast.
Every one of these Fire-eyed Flying Ants was carefully selected and kept by Zhou Yu.
Once tens of thousands of Fire-eyed Flying Ants swarmed out, even a Void Refinement Realm expert would likely find it hard to cope for a while.
But whether they would be effective against this Rhino Thunder, Zhou Yu had absolutely no confidence.
The second was the Nine Heavens Divine Spear Talisman he had refined.
This Talismanic Magic was something the Ghost Master had taught him.
The Ghost Master probably never imagined that Zhou Yu had already refined three talismans.
And Zhou Yu had roughly sensed that the power of this Nine Heavens Divine Spear Talisman was extremely terrifying.
If released, it likely wouldn’t be any weaker than a desperate blow from a Void Refinement Realm expert.
Of course, Zhou Yu also knew very clearly that these two methods could only serve to stall the Rhino Thunder for a bit.
He never thought he could kill the Rhino Thunder with just these.
After all, this Rhino Thunder was a存在 that even made those four Integration Realm old monsters feel fear.
Zhou Yu reckoned that the Rhino Thunder’s true strength had not yet been fully revealed.
Right now, it was probably chasing him with the mindset of toying with its prey.
Of course, Zhou Yu had a third method.
It was that Demon Blade growing out of the old tree root in the Four Directions Realm.
This Demon Blade had now completely taken shape.
Back before entering the Black Soul Abyss, Zhou Yu had already tried grabbing this blade.
That time, he had indeed managed to grasp it smoothly.
But because the Demon Blade had not yet fully taken shape back then, Zhou Yu did not pull it out.
Now, however, Zhou Yu was certain that as long as he was willing, he could definitely pull out the Demon Blade.
However, the origin of this Demon Blade was extremely bizarre, and the way it had appeared was even more unheard of.
Just that old tree root alone had been growing in the Four Directions Realm for nearly ten million years.
It was easy to imagine how terrifying the might of this Demon Blade would be once it emerged into the world.
Zhou Yu believed that if he could wield the power of the Demon Blade, killing this Rhino Thunder should be no problem at all.
But he could not guarantee that he would be able to control the Demon Blade, nor could he guarantee how great a commotion the Demon Blade’s emergence would cause.
If it alerted those four old monsters, or the Ant Clan entrenched here—
Zhou Yu himself would be unable to control what consequences might follow.
That was the reason for his hesitation.
After struggling inwardly for a while, Zhou Yu still decided to take the safer approach.
Which was to use the Fire-eyed Flying Ants and the Nine Heavens Divine Spear Talisman to stall for time first and see if he could shake off the Rhino Thunder.
With that thought, Zhou Yu immediately sank his Heart Spirit into the Four Directions Realm.
The next moment, Zhou Yu waved his hand, and a streak of blood light shot out.
This streak of blood light was precisely a torrent of a thousand Fire-eyed Flying Ants.
At this moment, seeing Zhou Yu make a move, the Rhino Thunder instinctively fired a bolt of Thunder Light toward this blood light.
Bang!
The instant the Thunder Light struck the torrent of Fire-eyed Flying Ants, the torrent was directly scattered.
Thousands of Fire-eyed Flying Ants fell from the sky one after another.
The Rhino Thunder revealed a mocking expression.
It didn’t even spare them a glance and continued its pursuit of Zhou Yu.
However, at this moment, a cold sneer suddenly flashed across Zhou Yu’s eyes.
He quietly formed a spell seal.
Those Fire-eyed Flying Ants that had been knocked down actually recovered very quickly, then rapidly took flight again, swarming toward the Rhino Thunder.
These Fire-eyed Flying Ants had all been carefully screened by Zhou Yu.
The screening process included being bombarded by the Heavenly Punishment Divine Thunder.
Therefore, any that managed to remain all possessed extremely strong resistance; ordinary Power Of Thunder was basically ineffective against them.
The Rhino Thunder was tightly locking its gaze on Zhou Yu when suddenly a thousand Fire-eyed Flying Ants came swarming toward it.
A look of surprise immediately surfaced in the Rhino Thunder’s eyes.
It was clear that the Rhino Thunder’s Spiritual Wisdom was very high.
It noticed the extraordinariness of these Fire-eyed Flying Ants at the first moment.
It lifted a hoof and stomped viciously toward the Fire-eyed Flying Ant nearest its head.
In an instant, the void trembled.
Streaks of distorted Spatial Force swept toward the thousand Fire-eyed Flying Ants.
Seeing this scene, the Rhino Thunder’s face showed utter confidence.
In its eyes, these hateful Flying Ants could never withstand the shredding of spatial distortion.
However, in the next instant, it was stunned.
Those Fire-eyed Flying Ants all had flames flickering in their eyes.
Facing the incoming distorted spatial force, they were almost unaffected and continued to charge forward.
This time, the Rhino Thunder was completely enraged.
It opened its mouth wide, and with a surge of rainbow light—
Hundreds of Fire-eyed Flying Ants were directly swallowed by it.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zhou Yu had already widened the distance between himself and the Rhino Thunder by nearly ten thousand li.
The Rhino Thunder naturally did not forget Zhou Yu.
It swallowed the remaining Fire-eyed Flying Ants in a single gulp, then Thunder roared beneath its four hooves.
Immediately after, the Rhino Thunder instantly accelerated and once again gave chase, rapidly closing the distance to Zhou Yu...
