Chapter 51: Xiao Chen Takes Action! This Isn’t What We Expected
“Kill!!!”
The sound of battle cries filled the air around the gates of the Yushou Sect, with flames soaring into the sky.
Elite disciples from various sects fought ferociously against the tide of ferocious beasts. Fortunately, these were all elite disciples from nearby sects, their combat power was extraordinary.
Various magical abilities, divine powers, and spiritual weapons were unleashed!
The ground was littered with the corpses of various demonic beasts, and the thick scent of blood permeated the air.
“These damn beasts, coming here to die on their own!”
“They’re nothing special!”
Morale was high among the disciples, their bodies covered in blood, driven by a fierce fighting spirit. But just then, a gigantic beast descended from the sky!
Boom!
A loud explosion shook the area, with a storm of dust and wind spreading out for hundreds of meters.
The beast was completely crimson, with a dragon’s body and a serpent’s tail. It had nine heads!
Each head seemed to have its own consciousness, twisting like water snakes. An ancient ferocious beast, Jiuying!
It could breathe fire and water and loved to eat humans, making it the leader of these beasts.
“It’s Jiuying? Kill it!”
“Everyone, today is the day we eliminate this threat once and for all!”
The cultivators’ eyes were red with fury. This detestable beast had eaten countless people, and many disciples’ bones were never recovered.
If they couldn’t kill it today, their hatred would never be quenched.
“Roar!!” With a beastly roar, the nine heads began to glow with blinding light.
Nine pillars of fire shot out from different directions, turning the entire sky red with flames!
The screams of human cultivators echoed through the air. The weak were instantly engulfed by the flames, while the strong retreated, struggling to fend off the fire.
“Such strong flames… No wonder it’s a ferocious beast!”
Under the leadership of Jiuying, the beast tide surged again, a black mass sweeping forward.
“Everyone, do not fear, buy time for Brother Xiao!”
“If we do not uproot them today, the future will be disastrous!”
They had no idea that Xiao Chen didn’t need any preparation. He was merely observing in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to subdue the Jiuying.
“Sorry, but to ensure my success, your sacrifices are necessary,” he murmured to himself.
The battle was incredibly fierce! The casualties among the cultivators kept rising, with the Beast Taming Sect suffering the most, losing at least sixty percent of their disciples.
None of the bodies were intact, all gnawed by the hungry beasts.
“We can’t go on… These beasts are endless, and our numbers are dwindling!”
“Where is Xiao Chen?”
“Retreat! If this continues, we will be annihilated.”
Just as retreat seemed inevitable, Xiao Chen appeared! The protagonist always appears at the most critical moment, turning the tide of battle.
“Everyone, sorry for the wait, preparing the spiritual treasure took me some time. Leave the rest to me!”
Xiao Chen’s eyes were bloodshot as he clenched his fists: “I, Xiao Chen, will avenge my fallen brothers!”
“Brother Xiao, you alone?”
“I alone am enough!”
Under the blazing night sky, Xiao Chen stood at the forefront, facing the overwhelming beast tide and the ferocious Jiuying. He exuded a heroic aura, standing alone against all odds.
“Beast Suppression Scroll, go!” A scroll glowing with golden light flew out from Xiao Chen’s hand.
This was the core of his luck. No matter what kind of beast, it could suppress them! Once suppressed, he could absorb the beast’s power from the Beast Suppression Scroll.
Jiuying had always been his target.
“Open!”
The scroll unfolded in the sky, almost covering the entire heavens. On the scroll were depictions of countless rare beasts, radiating golden light and divine power!
The first target was the Jiuying.
“Suppress it!”
Countless golden beams shot down from the scroll, enveloping Jiuying. Its howls echoed through the heavens!
With the Beast Suppression Scroll, as long as the owner’s realm was sufficient, even a Taotie or Qiongqi could be suppressed, let alone a Jiuying.
(TL: Just search up the beast looks and stuff on google it doesn’t have an English name since it’s all this beasts are Chinese mythologies.)
Amidst the golden light, Jiuying fell to the ground, turning into a shadow, absorbed into the scroll.
“It’s done!” Xiao Chen rejoiced.
The Beast Suppression Scroll could only be used once a day, so he had meticulously prepared. Now, he could gain the power of Jiuying.
Driving away the beast tide would be a piece of cake. Behind him, the cultivators were all in shock.
“Brother Xiao subdued Jiuying?”
“Indeed, it’s a spiritual treasure, finally resolved!”
“Xiao Chen! Xiao Chen!”
Their cheers grew louder and more excited.
Xiao Chen excitedly retrieved the scroll, but his pupils suddenly contracted upon noticing something wrong.
“It’s not there! Why?”
Suddenly, an ethereal voice echoed, “If I hadn’t been prepared, I really would have fallen into your hands today!”
In front, a tiger beast’s belly suddenly split open, and a graceful woman stepped out.
“You… Who are you?” Xiao Chen was shocked, his whole body tensing up.
Indeed, she was the real Jiuying! The one just now was a fake, created by cutting off one of her heads.
“Let you insignificant humans witness my true power!”
Crimson light exploded. With a dragon’s body and serpent’s tail, the giant beast covered the sky! At this moment, Jiuying was more than twice the size of the previous one!
The massive shadow loomed over Xiao Chen’s pale face and eight fierce heads glared menacingly.
A Transcendent realm ancient ferocious beast revealed its true form!
