Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 563 - 561: Met a Familiar Person_1

The Deep Fire Blade instantly fell towards the sphere!

BANG!

In an instant, a massive light screen appeared around the Deep Fire Blade.

Then, the Deep Fire Blade plummeted directly towards the sphere.

This was the first time Wang Zhan had seen a level 1 demonic beast. It wasn't just him; even Old Mao had never seen such a demonic beast!

A wave of heat instantly spread outwards!

Wang Zhan took a few steps back, then felt a sharp pain in the web of his hand!

In an instant, Wang Zhan was sent flying backwards!

The Deep Fire Blade trembled continuously.

This...

Wang Zhan stared in shock at the sphere before him. Although this was his first time wielding the Deep Fire Blade's power, he could sense its terrifying force. Yet, it now seemed this level 1 demonic beast was far stronger than he had imagined.

Even after such an attack, it hadn't suffered any damage at all!

However, Wang Zhan quickly began to understand the sphere.

When he attacked, the sphere seemed to enter an automatic defensive state, returning to its original shape.

Its entire body offered no openings.

But while this immensely boosted its defense, it lost its offensive capabilities.

However, when it wanted to attack, the sphere would transform into another state, its body extending outwards before a massive, blood-red maw appeared!

That would be the best time to defeat it!

But Wang Zhan was keenly aware of the vast difference in their combat strength. He still couldn't directly confront this strange sphere.

Beside him, Old Mao clutched his severed arm. Clearly, he had lost his ability to fight as well.

If they continued to wear themselves out here, Wang Zhan and the others would gain no advantage.

Realizing this, Wang Zhan walked over to Old Mao. His voice grew heavy as he said, "Let's get out of here first."

"What about this thing?" Old Mao pointed at the sphere before them, his voice grave.

Hmm... Wang Zhan frowned slightly. He looked at the strange object and finally said in a low voice, "Let's ignore it for now."

Without waiting for Old Mao to reply, Wang Zhan pulled him along and they quickly retreated.

The sphere was still in its defensive state—the perfect opportunity for them to escape.

If the sphere began to attack, leaving would become much harder.

However, just as Wang Zhan and Old Mao started to run, Wang Zhan noticed Xiang Tian still standing in place, coldly watching the sphere.

Wang Zhan shouted sharply, "Hurry up and go!"

But Xiang Tian ignored Wang Zhan, his gaze fixed on the sphere. He had only one thought now: to avenge his family! It seemed this strange sphere was undoubtedly connected to the disappearance of the people from the camp. Xiang Tian couldn't think about anything else and, in the next instant, he charged towards the sphere!

Wang Zhan had planned to flee, but seeing Xiang Tian's actions, he could only shake his head helplessly.

In the next moment, he appeared before Xiang Tian, grabbed his arm, and said, "Come with me!"

"I refuse!" Xiang Tian roared, trying to wrench his arm free. But in the next instant, Wang Zhan was already dragging him rapidly away!

In moments, they were out of the sphere's range.

Seeing that the sphere didn't pursue them, Wang Zhan went to Old Mao and carefully examined his injuries. After observing Old Mao for a long moment, he finally asked, "Are you alright?"

Old Mao had already tended to his wound, but the pain was still evident on his face.

However, Old Mao didn't want to worry them, so he quickly waved his hand. "I'm fine." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Wang Zhan nodded. "Then you should rest for a bit."

After speaking, he walked over to Xiang Tian, who sat under a tree looking distraught, his mind still on his friends in the camp.

"What good are you like this?" Wang Zhan suddenly said.

"It's none of your business!" Xiang Tian shot Wang Zhan a cold glance, his expression hardening further as he stood up. "If it weren't for you..."

Before he could finish, Wang Zhan waved his hand dismissively. "Enough. Save your excuses. Have you ever considered it might be your own fault?"

"You've been here for so long, yet you've achieved nothing."

"Even if we hadn't disturbed those King-level beasts this time, didn't you hear what the Gold-Devouring Beast said?"

"Once their leader arrives, they won't need to guard Hundred Beast Mountain anymore. What will you do then?"

Xiang Tian remained silent. It was true. He just needed an outlet for his anger.

But dealing with so many King-level beasts was no simple task, was it? Heh. It was utterly ridiculous!

He turned his face away, unwilling to speak further.

Wang Zhan leaned against a tree and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry. The people from your camp are just hiding."

SWISH!

Xiang Tian's expression changed instantly. He looked at Wang Zhan in shock and asked, "What do you mean?"

Heh. Wang Zhan chuckled coldly. "I carefully inspected the camp earlier. There wasn't a trace of blood. Do you know what that means? It proves everyone escaped."

"So, you don't need to worry. You'll have a chance to see them again eventually."

Wang Zhan wasn't just trying to comfort him; their personalities were simply different.

Xiang Tian seemed like a child, oblivious to such details, but Wang Zhan was different. He had assessed the situation in the camp at the earliest opportunity.

He had wanted to share his findings immediately, but Xiang Tian had paid him no mind. Naturally, Wang Zhan wasn't going to offer unsolicited kindness only to be rebuffed.

Xiang Tian stared at Wang Zhan in shock for a long moment, then suddenly grabbed his arm, his eyes shining with a strange light. He asked bluntly, "You're not joking with me, are you?"

"Joking?" Wang Zhan's gaze shifted to Old Mao. His only wish was to see Old Mao safe; he had no time for jokes. Such a childish mindset, indeed.

"That's great!" Xiang Tian leaped up. "I knew it! The people from the camp couldn't possibly be hurt!"

Wang Zhan ignored him, simply not wanting Xiang Tian to pester him further.

Since this place still wasn't completely safe, Wang Zhan and the others rested briefly before setting off again.

But they had only taken a few steps when they heard a sound. Could that be... people? Wang Zhan's eyes lit up.

Xiang Tian was also startled. He knew everyone in the fifth war zone very well. If he saw anyone, he might find out where his father was!

At this thought, Xiang Tian's expression brightened with hope. Before Wang Zhan could speak, he had already dashed into the forest!

Wang Zhan and Old Mao quickly followed.

However, as they approached, they saw several King-level beasts attacking a young man covered in blood. Could that be… Xiang Tian's face turned grim. "Xiao Bai!"

As he spoke, he rushed towards Xiao Bai. The King-level beasts heard him, locked onto Xiang Tian, and charged!

Although Xiang Tian had reached the Grandmaster realm, his combat prowess was far from impressive.

BANG!

With Xiang Tian's attention entirely on Xiao Bai, he failed to notice the King-level beasts' movements. By the time he reacted, a King-level beast was on either side of him, and he felt a wave of danger wash over him!

Immediately, a sharp pain shot through his chest, and he was sent flying!

The King-level beasts showed no signs of relenting and charged Xiang Tian again!

Wang Zhan, however, acted instantly. With the Deep Fire Blade in hand, enhanced by the Heavenly Dragon Armor, he had also stepped into the Grandmaster realm. In his eyes, these two King-level beasts were mere child's play!

In an instant, a burst of Fire Light descended, sending the two King-level beasts flying!

Knowing they were no match for Wang Zhan, the King-level beasts exchanged a glance and quickly retreated.

Meanwhile, Wang Zhan walked over to Xiao Bai. After carefully examining his wounds, he said nonchalantly, "You'll be alright. They're just superficial wounds."

"You... you're still alive?" Xiao Bai still remembered Wang Zhan's face. He was one of those who had previously plotted with Xiang Tian to send Wang Zhan to his death in the well.

Wang Zhan couldn't be bothered with him and walked aside.

Though injured, Xiang Tian scrambled up from the ground, rushed to Xiao Bai's side, and grabbed his arm, asking urgently, "Yes! We're all fine! But where is everyone else?"

"Why couldn't we find anyone at the camp when we returned?"

At this, Xiao Bai's expression darkened considerably. He lowered his head, frowning. "Is it because... because all those King-level beasts came down, so everyone..."

"Where's my dad?" Xiang Tian cut straight to what he cared about most.

"They're all hiding. They're safe now, so don't worry," Xiao Bai quickly replied.

"Then what were you doing out here?" Xiang Tian asked, puzzled. If everyone was hiding, Xiao Bai had no reason to be here.

Xiao Bai scratched his head awkwardly. After a moment, he said, "I... I was going back to the camp to get something..."

"Are you crazy?" Xiang Tian roared. "Don't you realize? If we hadn't shown up, you'd be dead by now!"
