Chapter 373 - Killing Each Other
Chapter 373 Killing Each Other
The three humongous creatures halted and twitched their noses as though they were smelling something. It was a peculiar fragrance, which was transmitted into their seas of consciousness, and they could not resist the wonderful scent. Next, they looked away from the city walls and stared at the void.
Over there, an Earthly Dragon Beast was seen.
Nonetheless, the dragon beast was extremely different from them. Although it had a similar body size, its body was particularly enchanting.
For some reason, the three dragon beasts fixed their eyes on the Earthly Dragon Beasts when it appeared. Powerful energies began to stir in their bodies, and they almost could not hold back anymore.
All of a sudden, the newly-appeared Earth Dragon Beast turned around and was as agile as a hare. It chose a direction and swayed its body, then it ran into the distance.
As the dragon beast kept shaking its enormous butt, it was such a beautiful sight to the three Earthly Dragon Beasts that it drew their attention.
“Roar…”
With that, the three Earthly Dragon Beasts let out forceful and furious roars. Their eyes reddened, and they turned around to pursue the alluring dragon beast recklessly.
Given that the three Earthly Dragon Beasts were massive, the ground shook each time they moved.
When they turned around at the same time and ran toward the periphery instead, it was a disaster for numerous ferocious beasts.
Many ferocious beasts dared not get close when many Supreme Great Ancestors fought the three Earthly Dragon Beasts because they could not withstand the beasts’ threatening pressure and momentum. Similarly, when the dragon beasts went mad and charged around violently with their large feet, the ferocious beasts could not stop them.
Whenever the Earth Dragon Beasts stomped, numerous ferocious beasts were turned into meat pastes. Some other beasts were also sent flying away or were hurt, and ended tragically.
It took only a brief moment for the three crazy Earthly Dragon Beasts to leave three bloody paths on the battlefield.
On the other hand, Ou Yangming, who turned pale, uttered softly, “Take me away!” After inciting the two active skills on his arm guard[1], which was paired with the Spiritual First, Ou Yangming needed to fully focus without being distracted at all.
Wu Hanning wrapped her arm around Ou Yangming’s waist without any hesitation and took him to follow behind the Earthly Dragon Beasts.
Many Supreme Great Ancestors exchanged glances and had strange looks on their faces.
Seeing as how close the young lady is with Ou Yangming, could he have fallen in love with someone else?’ Those who were unaware of Wu Hanning’s identity could not help but glance at the Ni family’s Three Great Ancestors. As for Woo Lejia and the great ancestors from the capital, they were shocked because Her Royal Highness carried ou Yangming away despite being a princess. Though they knew the young fellow was the consort, they could not help but respect him.
“That young fella is amazing!’
Far away, the Eight-armed Giant Beast widened its eyes in disbelief at the Earthly Dragon Beasts, who were rampaging through the other ferocious beasts. It could not hold back its anger anymore. ‘How can they go mad? How can they go mad at this moment?’
“Haha, this is interesting. I’m about to die from laughing too much!” The little red bird rolled on the Eight-armed Giant Beast’s head as it burst out laughing. “This human is too interesting!” The Eight-armed Giant Beast asked after some thought, “Sir, what’s going on?”
“That human’s an Illusion Art powerhouse. He created a fake female Earthly Dragon Beast, and it’s quite similar to the real thing!” The little red bird then tilted its heart and muttered, “This can’t be right. There shouldn’t be such a powerful Illusion Art in this world…” The Eight-armed Giant Beast had a horrific look on its face, and it stood up abruptly. Following that, its muscles began to expand one by one.
It was then when the little bird stomped its foot on the beast’s head and reprimanded it, “What are you doing?” “I’m going to kill that human who released the Illusion Art!” The Eight-armed Giant Beast was startled.
“Pfft, things have just become interesting. Are you trying to diminish my interest?” The little bird was displeased.
“Ah! Sir, I dare not!” The Eight-armed Giant Beast shrunk its neck and curbed its aura, but it was unhappy with the outcome.
The little bird tilted its head again and mumbled, “I recall that the Sky-devouring Evil Remnant likes residual conceptions on battlefields the most, and the evil remnant is the only one that can devour them. Hehe, as long as this battlefield expands and accumulates more residual conceptions in the air, that fella will definitely be attracted here, right?” It stomped its foot and shouted. “Yes, you’re extremely right. Sir, you’re incredibly clever and have a great plan!” The Eight-armed Giant Beast immediately agreed with the little bird, but it secretly complained, ‘This world isn’t extensive, but it’s a perfect world, after all. It’s easier said than done to release residual battle auras in a certain spot in this world to attract that fearsome fella.
‘Besides, even though that fella lost its physical body and is only a remaining soul, as long as it’s the Sky-devouring Evil Remnant, it’s not an easy opponent. If that fella’s drawn here, it’ll only ruin my plan to eliminate the Humans.’
Nevertheless, as displeased as the Eight-armed Giant Beast was, it could only agree to whatever the little bird said.
“The Humans’ reinforcements are here, and they’re not easy opponents at all! Since that’s the case, give them some time to recuperate and eliminate them in one stroke when they’re at the peak! Mm, when that happens, the drifting residual conceptions will surely attract it!” The little bird hopped on the Eight-armed Giant Beast’s head and was high-spirited. “I won’t let it go this time no matter what!”
“Yes, sir.” The Eight-armed Giant Beast responded with respect, then it lifted its head and let out an earth-shattering roar.
The three Earthly Dragon Beasts, who had been chasing their kind all over, had killed countless ferocious beasts along their way. Even so, they were unfeeling and were still running around crazily. The more the ferocious beasts around them, the more delighted they were.
Needless to say, everything was Ou Yangming’s doing. By using the Simulated Spiritual Fist with his Charm Arm Guard, the three Earthly Dragon Beasts were completely bewitched.
However, the three dragon beasts stopped when a deafening roar was heard. They shook their bodies in a daze as though they lost interest in the enticing, huge butt.
Ou Yangming’s face changed, and he inhaled deeply to increase his mental power to the
peak.
He channeled his essential Qi at the same time to direct them into his arm guard. Consequently, the arm guard faintly glowed, where the light enveloped him and Wu Hanning
As for the other Supreme Great Ancestors, they knew the situation was unfavorable, thus they surrounded the two of them without any hesitation.
The veins on Ou Yangming’s forehead bulged; it was the indicator of him fully unleashing his mental power.
When he completely released his energy, with the magic tool’s help, he finally overcame the violent roar’s threat toward the Earthly Dragon Beasts.
The three dragon beasts suddenly looked up and roared as well. Afterward, they turned around and attacked each other fiercely, where they stabbed their saber-like long horns into each other’s bodies. Though their bodies were tough, to the extent that magic tools could not cause fatal injuries, they could not resist the horns of their kind.
Deep and frightening wounds were seen on their bodies, causing blood to gush out non-stop. As a result, the ground was painted red.
That said, the dragon beasts were not going to stop at all. They kept crashing into one another as if they were determined to fight until the end, and they stabbed each other with brute force by using their horns. All in all, they were set on killing each other regardless of the costs.
Inside and outside the battlefield, everyone and everything fell silent.
The fact that three humongous creatures were fighting a life-or-death battle was a first in history.
Their movements were so intense that they were indescribable. Rocks and sand filled the air, by which the ferocious beasts around suffered fractures when they were hit, and they could not move anymore.
With bright eyes, Wu Hanning carried ou Yangming and wandered around the three giant beasts.
Her movements were unpredictable, but whether it was the outraged giant beasts or the flying rocks and sand, they could not get close to her.
The princess’s body technique was so profound that even the Supreme Great Ancestors, who were forced to stay away, were in awe.
Perhaps Wu Hanning was the only one who could help Ou Yangming stay in such a dangerous area.
After 15 minutes, one of the Earthly Dragon Beasts howled in grief and collapsed to the ground. Even then, the two other dragon beasts were indifferent, and they kept trying to kill each other.
At last, another dragon beast fell to the ground. Its body kept twitching, and it could not get up anymore.
As for the Earthly Dragon Beast that triumphed over them, it was already covered in wounds, and one of its horns was broken. Despite that, it screamed excitedly and dragged its bloody body toward a certain spot in the void. Subsequently, it pounced on the ground and looked up with an unexplainable look of daze in its eyes.
The dragon beast panted heavily, but the air that it breathed no longer contained surging spiritual power. Eventually, it lowered its head, but its eyes were still opened.
