Xiaoxiao.

Looking at the human before him, though he was already covered in wounds, a fierce fighting spirit still burned deep in his eyes.

He seemed to be born to fight; life and death were of no importance to him.

Lei Mang's defenses were breached once again upon seeing this.

"Good lad! As expected of that person's partner. Are all humans freaks? I admit, you fully deserve my respect and admiration!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he solemnly bowed deeply to the other person.

Lei Mang's actions resonated with most people, and sincere praise was heard everywhere.

"Wow! Look at our Lord Lei, what a man of integrity! So upright and honorable, a role model for us all!" Someone shouted excitedly, his face flushed.

"Absolutely! Lord Lei is absolutely amazing!" Another person waved their arms wildly to express their fervor.

"Lord Lei, I love you to death!" Some young women couldn't even contain their admiration and shouted in a high-pitched voice.

In an instant, praises and cheers rose and fell, echoing through the sky.

However, Lei Mang did not respond at all to the flood of praise.

His gaze was fixed on Wu Ren, and he said earnestly, "Brave warrior, please tell me your name. It would be such a pity if a hero like you were to die in obscurity. Your name should be remembered, and it deserves to be remembered! Remember, my name is Lei Mang, and I am the head of Leiji Mountain."

"Wu Ren!"

Influenced by the other person's emotions, Wu Ren also generously revealed his name.

"Okay. Those two are your close comrades-in-arms, right?"

One of the people you would risk your life to protect is someone I have been fortunate enough to witness firsthand – a true hero like yourself.

The other person, though we never met, must also be a rare young hero.

It's a real shame that I couldn't see it in person.

But that's alright; we're all here on the vast plains, and I believe we'll meet again someday.

Lei Mang gazed at the confident Wu Ren with a smile on his face and slowly began to speak.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ren revealed a meaningful smile: Oh? Lord Lei is so confident? Is it merely because you are one of the three great lords of the Wild Plains?

If that's the case, you're overestimating yourself.

Yes, you are very strong.

Not only are you very strong, but all three of you are very strong.

But to think that everyone is beyond your control based on this alone is far too arrogant.

However, you are right about one thing: you two will definitely meet again.

However, it wasn't you who forced them to show up.

Instead, they will come to us when the time is right!

Lei Mang didn't take Wu Ren's words seriously.

In his opinion, the other party was completely overconfident, so he chuckled and said, "Oh ho, look at your confident look. It seems you have blind confidence in them. Hehehe, but you don't know just how desperate the gap between the fifth and sixth levels is."

As he spoke, he pointed at Ling Qi and said, "You may or may not know this person. He is the youngest person in the history of Yekou Ridge to enter the fifth level, even earlier than their lord Zhu Xian."

But what was the result? Zhu Xian had already successfully advanced to the sixth level three thousand years ago.

But what about him? He's still going around in circles.

You might think he's terrible, but I'm here to tell you that even so, he's still a rare genius.

Although you have reached your current level in just a few years, do not forget that compared to us, your human lifespan is the biggest weakness.

Compared to our lifespan of tens of thousands of years, your human lifespan of a few hundred years is truly pathetic.

Although your lifespan has been greatly extended due to your cultivation.

But they still number only a few thousand, and their lifespan is still incomparable to ours.

Before reaching the sixth level, not only you, but all of us are also cultivating at an unprecedented speed.

But once you reach the fifth level, taking another step forward becomes as difficult as ascending to heaven.

For you humans to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm, which is similar to our sixth level, is ten thousand times more difficult than for us.

Although we cannot cultivate your human techniques, we still possess knowledge.

Otherwise, why would we beasts have been the rulers of Penglai Planet since ancient times?

Therefore, even if your two partners are highly talented, it is nothing short of wishful thinking for them to make a breakthrough in a short period of time.

If things are really as you suspect, I will personally go to your grave to tell you.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ren burst into laughter, "So, Lord Lei is sure he has me cornered?"

He was well aware of the difficulties in breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, but he firmly believed that Kuang Zheng would achieve it in a short time.

Although such a prediction had no basis, Wu Ren's confidence never wavered.

Lei Mang's eyes widened, and he roared angrily: "It's not that I've got you figured out, it's just the truth, the possibility of your companion Jiuwu achieving such a major breakthrough in such a short time."

As for you, from the very beginning, you were determined to die.

Because you know, if we don't do this, there's no way we can stop the three of us from continuing our pursuit.

Congratulations, your wish has come true.

Without us, no one could have caught your companion, so you won the gamble.

To show our respect for you, we will stop pursuing them and let them go.

A person who is determined to die will become fearless and dangerous.

Therefore, out of respect for your courage, I will fight with all my might today! Before he finished speaking, a loud bang was heard, and Lei Mang instantly revealed his true form.

A colossal, ten-thousand-meter-long, thunder-scaled serpent suddenly appeared, blotting out the sky.

The python was enormous, its body covered with scales that shimmered with lightning, giving it a mysterious appearance, and it exuded a terrifying aura that sent chills down one's spine.

Faced with such a colossal creature, all the onlookers turned pale with fright.

Wu Ren, who was at the very front, showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he burst into a hearty laugh, full of heroic spirit.

He gripped the Immortal Slayer Spear tightly in his hand, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy poured into the spear.

In an instant, the gun barrel burst into a dazzling golden light, its cold gleam radiating a terrifying aura, as if it were about to pierce the sky.

At the same time, a golden whirlwind suddenly swept up from Wu Ren's center, whistling and swirling in mid-air.

"Hahaha... You so-called peerless masters can never get rid of your pretentious bad habit, no matter when or where!"

"It's obvious that you're not strong enough to catch up, and you had no choice but to decide to kill me, yet you still put on an arrogant and condescending act, claiming that you deliberately let me go! It's laughable! Bah!" Wu Ren mocked mercilessly.
