Wang Hao swung his sword to block, and his body was pushed back, sliding over ten meters. He stomped his foot to leverage himself and slashed the fire dragon apart.

The Flame Man twirled elegantly, casting dozens of small fire dragons that attacked Wang Hao from all directions.

Wang Hao, with his enhanced senses through Spiritual Power, easily dodged and used the Blade of Plunder to extinguish the small fire dragons.

Effortlessly.

The Flame Man was not idle either. Taking advantage of the gap, he raised his hands towards the sky, forming a fireball that grew larger and more solid.

The previous attacks were just to buy time; this was his real ultimate move.

Feeling the increasingly powerful energy waves, Wang Hao's heart sank.

His body moved like lightning, swiftly extinguishing all fire dragons, and he too began gathering power.

Waves of Spiritual Power converged towards the Blade of Plunder, which glowed with a purple light that grew brighter.

"Die!"

The Flame Man finished charging and hurled the massive fireball at Wang Hao.

The intense heat scorched everything, and even before the ball reached him, Wang Hao already felt the surging heat wave.

This move was incredibly powerful!

At this moment, his Blade of Plunder shone brilliantly.

"Cross Slash!"

He shouted dramatically, performing a vertical chop followed by a sweeping horizontal turn.

A gigantic purple-gold cross met the fireball.

The two clashed in the air, locked in a stalemate.

"Boom!"

There was a loud explosion, and a powerful shockwave swept all around.

Wang Hao and the Flame Man were both pushed back; this strike was evenly matched.

In truth, Wang Hao should have had a slight advantage.

The Flame Man's charging time was much longer than Wang Hao's!

After landing, Wang Hao didn't wait for the Flame Man to attack again. Instead, he dashed forward and swung his blade at the Flame Man.

Even the most honest person has a temper.

Wang Hao was truly fired up now.

"Isn't he a Superpower user who excels with firearms?"

Zhao Hu and Yang Tian exchanged a blow, both gasping for breath and watching Wang Hao's battle.

Both were greatly shocked.

How was Wang Hao's swordsmanship so impressive?

And what was that last strike called?

He could even contract a barrier and turn it into a slash?

This was unbelievably amazing!

Just what kind of person was he!

Their development of Superpowers was nowhere near his level!

Both of them broke out in cold sweat.

They had always thought Wang Hao was inferior to them.

Now it seems, Wang Hao's strength might even surpass theirs!

While Wang Hao was entangled with the Flame Man, the Short Flute Man was also busy.

The sound of the flute lingered in the air.

The first wave of monsters had already reached the scorched land.

Masses of Corpse Birds appeared in the sky.

Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, as if he had used some Secret Technique!

This made Wang Hao furrow his brow slightly.

Ordinary monsters weren't a concern; using trees and rocky walls to leverage, he could avoid them to the best extent.

But Corpse Birds could fly.

If they gathered in large numbers and acted together, it would affect his plan to descend the mountain.

He no longer wished to tangle with the Flame Man.

With a sharp gaze, Spiritual Power surged within him, and he unleashed a crescent-shaped Qi Blade in a purple-gold hue, sending the Flame Man flying.

In this strike, he showed some restraint.

The Flame Man was, after all, from the Second Settlement Camp, and from the looks of it, given his abilities as a natural-type Superpower User,

his status in the Second Settlement Camp should be quite high.

Wang Hao didn't want to make enemies with the Second Settlement Camp; after all, the official backing was still substantial.

After sending the Flame Man flying, he turned and fled.

"Trying to leave? Think again!"

The Flame Man, not appreciating the gesture, endured the attack, roared, and pursued.

"Useless!"

The Short Flute Man cast a disdainful glance at the Flame Man.

This jerk couldn't even hold Wang Hao.

Now, the monsters haven't surrounded Wang Hao completely, and thus, they couldn't fully unleash their power to stop him.

He could only continue playing the flute, blocking all escape routes, forcing Wang Hao further up the mountain, and simultaneously gathering Corpse Birds to form a tide.

"Run!"

Yang Tian spat venom at Zhao Hu and turned to flee.

The monsters were gathering more and more; if they didn't run now, they might not be able to.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Zhao Hu roared and chased after him.

However, the terrain here was complex, with chaotic trees everywhere. Although Zhao Hu's speed wasn't inferior to Yang Tian's, at full sprint, it could even surpass Yang Tian's.

But here, he couldn't speed up at all, making it almost impossible to catch up with Yang Tian in a short time.

However, Zhao Hu did not give up because of this; he kept tightly following Yang Tian with a stance of refusing to rest until Yang Tian was dead.

"Damn it!"

Yang Tian was so furious he almost spat blood.

This Zhao Hu really didn't care about his life anymore.

Now he was almost on the verge of death because of him.

Regret!

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have teamed up with Tang Rui to set up Zhao Hu.

Previously, teaming up with Zhao Hu wasn't too bad, actually.

At the same time, he also regretted not pursuing at that time.

At that time, he should have spared no effort to join Tang Rui in hunting Zhao Hu down to eliminate future troubles.

Which led to the current passive situation.

But there's no medicine for regret in this world.

Meanwhile, Wang Hao hurried towards the hiding place of Xiaoyueyue.

"Let's team up!"

The Short Flute Man played his flute, and sonic waves rippled out, enveloping the Flame Man.

"Fire Dragon Claw!"

The Flame Man's speed skyrocketed, and a giant fire claw formed in his right hand, reaching for Wang Hao.

Wang Hao paused and shouted Yueyue's name.

The next moment, his body vanished into thin air, and the Flame Man's attack missed.

Meanwhile, Wang Hao's figure appeared not far away.

"How is that possible?"

The two were utterly baffled; what kind of speed was that just now?

They couldn't even see clearly.

Taking advantage of their stunned moment, Wang Hao quickly reached Xiaoyueyue's hiding spot, picked her up, and moved towards the previous cableway direction.

Descending the mountain from this side wasn't an option; there were too many monsters congregated.

Fortunately, many monsters had come down from the mountain, making it much easier to ascend now.

Sticking to the previous plan, towards the cableway, then slide down along it.

There weren't many monsters on that side, and sliding down then breaking the cableway would completely shake them off.

"He's actually bringing a little girl?"

Both the Flame Man and the Short Flute Man were stunned at this point.

What's going on?

In such a dangerous place, he was actually bringing a burden?

Is he crazy?

The Short Flute Man was in a deep conflict at this moment.

Others might not know, but he knew Wang Hao was a Cultivator.

And his Spiritual Power seemed much more solid than before, indicating he was holding back his strength previously.

Plus, with his many mysterious techniques, he must have a powerful mentor or even a fearsome hidden sect or family behind him!

The Short Flute Man genuinely did not want to be enemies with Wang Hao.

Not only because he wasn't a match for him now, but even if he managed to overcome him and kill him, his mentor wouldn't let it go.

If he failed to kill him, it would be even worse.

He was merely a minor character, yet Wang Hao was a genuine Cultivator.

In this world where Spiritual Qi was gradually recovering.

People like Wang Hao would grow immensely strong over time.

It wouldn't be long before he would be nothing but an ant in Wang Hao's eyes.

If they turned into enemies and met again, Wang Hao could kill him with a mere wave.

"Damn it!"

He cursed the Flame Man in his heart.

If it wasn't for his interference, they might have gotten the Golden Bell and escaped by now.

And not ended up in such a dilemma.

However, regardless of how bright Wang Hao's future is or how strong he will become, or how solid his backing is.

Now, he must go all out nonetheless!

If he couldn't bring back the Golden Bell, his end would be worse than death, and even his family wouldn't be spared.

He took out a pill similar to the one used by the Sword Man and the others and swallowed it without hesitation.

The next moment, he felt a surge of power crazily bursting from his body.

His flute sounds spread further, and the effect on the monsters also increased.

A large number of Corpse Birds flew out from the woods, blocking out the sky as they chased after Wang Hao.

The Purple Gold Mountain was densely wooded, making it hard for a mass of corpses to form, and the monsters couldn't keep up with Wang Hao's speed, but the Corpse Birds were different.

They could fly, almost unaffected.

Soon, Wang Hao reached the cableway place.

However, the sky above was almost entirely covered by Corpse Birds.

Evidently, the Short Flute Man had guessed Wang Hao's intentions.

He had cut off his retreat in advance.

If he tried to slide down along the cableway now, he would surely face frenzied attacks from the Corpse Birds.

As for jumping down...

From such a height, unless he mastered the legendary Sword Flight, he would be severely injured if not dead from the fall.
