Yao Lao's soul power was far beyond what Yang Fan could compare to.
However, while he was still preparing to ponder where this powerful force originated from...
Yang Fan had already started running with him!
Although Yang Fan didn't know, Yao Lao had already sensed the terror of this aura.
It was more terrifying than any Soul Master he had encountered on the Douluo Continent.
We're going to die!
We're going to die!
Before taking action, Yang Fan had actually anticipated this situation, so he didn't waste any time.
However...
He completely didn't expect the Titan Giant Ape to arrive so quickly.
His body had only run a hundred meters away when an incredibly thick aura descended upon his head.
The moment this aura landed, his Martial Soul was instantly forced out.
Solidified, suffocated!
Let alone continuing to run, even taking a step forward became incredibly difficult for him now.
Was this the Titan Giant Ape's strength?
He hadn't even seen that massive body yet, but he already felt pressure greater than a Soul Saint.
"Brat, you go first."
"Master will stay behind to block him."
Yao Lao had now also detected the newcomer's strength, and it was even stronger than he had previously imagined.
"Master, be careful!"
At this moment, Yang Fan had no nonsense, nor did he yield.
He knew!
In this kind of clash between experts, staying behind would only make him a burden for Yao Lao.
"Pu—"
The pale white flame swarmed out from within Yao Lao's soul.
In just an instant...
Yang Fan felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
He knew!
This was Yao Lao holding back all the pressure for him.
"Master, I'll wait for you ahead."
Yang Fan said.
"Don't wait for me."
"And don't look back."
Yang Fan heard an unprecedented heaviness in Yao Lao's tone.
The escape continued...
Yang Fan used his peripheral vision to see trees as thick as water tanks snapped in half, sand and stones flying around.
The only thing he couldn't feel was the powerful pressure previously exerted on him.
His Dou Shi strength allowed him to run over a thousand meters away in just a few seconds.
At this moment...
He couldn't help but take a look behind him.
Thunder rolling, dark clouds dense!
A lightning tornado formed by the terrifying aura seemed as if it wanted to tear the entire sky apart.
Within the thunder clouds, he vaguely saw a dark black shadow like a hill, and also saw a dazzling white dot.
"Master!"
Yang Fan gritted his teeth, resolutely turned around, and continued to run wildly.
Yang Fan secretly cursed himself for being useless!
Because now the only thing he could do was run.
Only if he escaped to a safe place would Yao Lao have a way to escape.
Otherwise...
"Eh... Master?"
In the blink of an eye, Yao Lao actually appeared beside him.
Yang Fan was both surprised and happy!
His mood at this moment could not be described in words.
"Master can't win."
Although he had painstakingly refined a pill to repair his soul before, in the end, it only allowed his soul to improve, not reach its peak.
The reason was still because there was no physical body support!
A creature like the Titan Giant Ape didn't require high intelligence when attacking, but he, in a soul state, was difficult to exert his original strength in the storm turbulence.
One waned while the other waxed...
The gap between the two had already revealed itself.
"Brat, lend me your body!"
Yao Lao had no extra nonsense.
Now, to escape this Soul Beast Forest, the master and disciple had to be of one mind.
The fusion of master and disciple was not the first time.
Yang Fan relaxed, and Yao Lao entered directly.
"Bang—"
Yao Lao, controlling Yang Fan's body, turned back with a lightning spin and threw a punch at the chasing Titan Giant Ape.
Yao Lao wasn't trying to fight back on the spot.
Although he now had physical body support, Yang Fan's body strength was ultimately only stronger than a Dou Shi.
The collision of powerful auras would make this kid never wake up again.
Yao Lao punched into the wild wind released by the Titan Giant Ape, using the recoil force to send the master and disciple thousands of meters away.
At this moment...
Yao Lao unleashed his most proficient movement Dou Skill — Sky Net Technique!
Sky Net Technique!
The Yao family's inherited Dou Skill, possessing a total of twelve layers.
After cultivating to the tenth layer, one could conjure Sky Net Wings with Dou Qi.
Yao Lao soared straight up...
Only when appearing two thousand meters high did he feel the gravity exerted by the Titan Giant Ape gradually weaken.
Fortunately!
Luckily, before this, he had used a pill to repair his soul, allowing his strength to increase by a level.
If not...
Today, the master and disciple would both become a pile of dung in the Star Dou Forest.
"Whew—"
"Master, that was close."
Even though they were thousands of meters high, Yang Fan still had lingering fears.
That was the Titan Giant Ape!
Just a carelessness earlier could have turned him into a pool of mincemeat.
However, this calamity today also made him recognize the power of strength.
If a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast was already like this, then how strong would a level 99 Titled Douluo be?
Then what about a God...?
"Cultivation is never smooth sailing."
"Opportunity and risk always coexist!"
Yang Fan deeply agreed!
If he hadn't encountered this calamity, how would he have obtained a Hundred Thousand Year left arm soul bone?
"Was that the Titan Giant Ape you told Master about just now?"
Indeed very strong!
He had to admit the Titan Giant Ape was already equivalent to a high-quality sixth-tier Magical Beast on the Dou Qi Continent.
"Mm!"
This was also Yang Fan's first time seeing the Titan Giant Ape.
The shock it brought him was incomparable to human Titled Douluos.
...
Morning.
The master and disciple appeared at Qingfeng Town on the outskirts of the Soul Beast Forest.
As soon as he entered the town, Yang Fan received a message.
There was a powerful Soul Beast of unknown age and unspecified breed going crazy on the outskirts of the Soul Beast Forest.
This news was brought back by a powerful Soul Saint who tumbled and crawled out of the Star Dou Forest.
Just think about it...
A simp suddenly seeing the goddess he had secretly loved for tens of thousands of years having her brains splattered.
This f*cking situation would be unbearable for anyone!
"Brother, are you also preparing to go to the Star Dou Forest to hunt for soul rings?"
"Don't go!"
"The Star Dou Forest doesn't know what madness it caught recently; a powerful Soul Beast suddenly appeared on the outskirts."
"From last night until now, only one Soul Master ran back out of those who went in."
If it weren't for this Soul Saint who ran back, the Soul Masters in the entire outer town would still be in the dark until now.
"Brother, turn back!"
Listening to advice ensures a full belly!
Yang Fan, like most Soul Masters, was successfully persuaded to turn back after arriving in the town.
He didn't even dare to stay for a moment.
He had no choice but to leave!
Let alone the Soul Masters in the outer town, the merchants living in the town were now preparing to flee with their families.
In the long river of history on the Douluo Continent, the appearance of Beast Tides was not lacking, and every time a Beast Tide occurred, the outer towns of the Soul Beast Forest were definitely the first to suffer.
Of course!
There were also a very small number of Soul Masters preparing to seek wealth in danger.
As for their subsequent fate, Yang Fan really couldn't comment.
