Chapter 284: Chapter 242: Heavenly Corpse
As Sìxiàng arrived, he merely glanced at the gigantic sandworm from afar.
Perhaps finding it too noisy, he made a throwing gesture with his right hand.
Chen Xing caught a glimpse of an afterimage as the Thunder Spear was drawn from the void, and almost synchronously with the throwing motion, the massive body of the sandworm stiffened, and its head burst open.
The body then crashed to the ground.
The people who had been fighting desperately for half a day:
Turns out we had an actor among us!
"Is this the true challenge of passing the Inheritance Tower…"
Song Yanming bitterly smiled to himself, realizing in a flash that many things had become clear to him. Read exclusive content at empire
From beginning to end, Chen Xing probably never cared about the petty power struggles in the class.
Because it was unnecessary.
He remembered something his father once told him.
He had said that he was too cunning and complicated, which made him forget the essence of being a Beast Tamer, and this would lead to serious repercussions in the future.
Indeed... no matter how much you fight for power, ultimately, the method by which a Beast Tamer truly resolves problems is by seeing whose "fists" are bigger.
...
After dealing with the noisy little creature,
Sìxiàng looked back towards a distant hill some ten thousand meters away, where a figure stood with a red python coiled in front of him,
The red python, approximately as tall as a human, stared back malevolently with its bright red eyes.
A glint of murderous intent flashed in Sìxiàng's eyes.
It was those people over there who had attacked his master.
"Found them?" Chen Xing took out the bamboo leaf from his pocket.
The originally white bamboo leaf looked like faded glass, its surface color extremely pale.
He had obtained this leaf a long time ago.
It had never been triggered until it was activated passively this time.
"Master, I have found them."
"Pull them into the Dark Realm, then we'll deal with them," said Chen Xing, contemplating that enemies at the Advanced Beast Tamer level might have some special lifesaving measures.
If they escaped, it might be difficult to locate them again.
But if they were pulled into the Dark Realm, even if they managed to escape, they would still be within the Dark Realm.
As long as they couldn't find the exit, they would be trapped there for life.
The Dark Realm was like a natural prison.
"Yes." Sìxiàng's body flickered, transforming into several entwining arcs of lightning and disappearing from the spot.
Thunder Assault!
During flight, a spear, faster than the rest, instantly crossed thousands of meters to strike the red python.
"Hiss~"
The head of the red python exploded in an instant.
But the next moment, the shattered head, as if time had reversed, regenerated, becoming whole again.
What incredible speed!
Chi Xue broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead, grateful that he had used the Burning Feather on his Beast Tamer before.
Otherwise, his Red Kui Monocle Python might have been killed instantly due to carelessness.
However, he still had a chance.
The Burning Feather was a treasure given to him by his father on his hundredth birthday. Although it was only a derivative of a divine item, it still possessed part of the divine item's power.
It was considered a minor divine item.
When the Burning Feather was activated, the power of the Fire Attribute Beast Tamers increased significantly for a brief period, and the Fire Attribute skills released possessed an undying burning effect.
As long as the opponent had flesh, the flames would continue to burn until all the flesh was completely incinerated.
Damn it...if it hadn't been for the Jin Ye Guard causing him to lose his two strongest Beast Tamers, he wouldn't have used the Burning Feather on the Red Kui Monocle Python, a beast at only the Fourth Layers of Transcendence.
"Use Great Fire Blaster," Chi Xue commanded.
Facing such a fast opponent, it was unwise to use single-target skills.
Only a widespread attack could secure a victory.
A fierce red glint flashed through the pupils of the Red Kui Monocle Python.
The next second, the python's mouth opened.
Initially prepared to charge towards them and drag them into the Dark Realm, Sìxiàng sensed an immense threat the moment the opponent's mouth opened.
Without the slightest hesitation, Sìxiàng forcibly changed direction, deploying Thunder Flash with the swiftness of lightning.
Leaving behind an avatar at the original spot.
From the gaping mouth of the Red Mangler Python, flames burst forth suddenly, like a Fire Dragon soaring to the heavens.
Half of the sky was dyed with raging flames, as brilliant as blood, as if the entire sky was engulfed by a sea of fire.
The avatar of Sìxiàng was instantly engulfed by the flames.
In the distance, the school camp.
Gazing at the brilliant flames in the sky.
The faces of the students were filled with terror.
In the distant sky, those endless flames seemed to dye the entire sky red.
Even from such a distance, they could feel the heat wave hitting their faces.
"How terrifying..."
Someone muttered.
Song Yanming turned his head sharply towards Chen Xing, then looked in shock towards the distance.
He had clearly seen the Snow Bamboo that appeared on Chen Xing's body.
It was some kind of protective measure, and then Chen Xing summoned a two-winged Beast Taming creature, which flew directly towards the distance.
Then, an intense confrontation erupted.
That... must be a battle at the Transcendent Level, right?!
Song Yanming felt an indescribable suffocation, as if seeing an insurmountable mountain.
A wry smile appeared on his face.
Transcendence... it is his ultimate goal during university.
His dream was to transcend his Beast Taming by the time he graduated from college, graduate as an outstanding graduate, then enlist in the military and finally make a name for himself in the upcoming large-scale war.
But this vision he cherished was easily within reach for others, already effortlessly achieved.
Could the gap between people really be this big?
It turns out that during the high school cup was the closest I ever got to you...
On the distant battlefield, watching Sìxiàng being burned to ashes in the flames, Chi Xue narrowed his eyes, a smile playing on his lips.
This is Magic Transcendence!
Though its physical body is weak and its soul will has not transcended, its magic power, after several transformations, had already undergone a drastic metamorphosis, becoming a walking artillery on the earth!
Compared to other paths, the destructive power of Magic Transcendence is most evident.
"No, wait..." Chi Xue, observing Sìxiàng turning to ash in the inferno, wondered if it was all too simple...
Suddenly, a claw landed on top of his head from behind.
The moment it was about to crush his head, a profoundly mysterious force transferred the damage to the Red Mangler Python.
Bang!
The head of the Red Mangler Python cracked open, revealing four cavities.
At the same time, the surrounding environment abruptly changed—the bright sky darkened!
The moment its master was attacked, the Red Mangler Python viciously twisted its head and spat out a Flame Crossbow Exploding Arrow towards the master's back.
Having anticipated this, Sìxiàng flapped its wings once and soared high into the sky, narrowly avoiding the strike.
"Where is this?"
Chi Xue looked around, his expression somewhat discomfited.
The terrain was identical to before, but the colors of the surrounding heavens and earth had reversed.
The ground was desolate, thick cracks running across the plain, and from these fissures, dense black fog poured out, spreading across the plain.
In the distance, at the end of the plain, a colossal human-shaped body floated in the sky like an island suspended in the air.
This giant corpse's face was downward, and its thick black hair, like a waterfall, obscured its face.
There was a fatal penetrating wound in its chest, the heart gone, yet a rusty bronze chain had pierced through its body, one end disappearing into the heavens, and the other protruding from its chest, then coiling several times around its body.
This was the first time Sìxiàng had seen this spectacle.
Feeling an unprecedented horror emanating from the giant corpse, its soul was fortified, greatly enhancing its sense of danger.
Because of this, it felt a strong threat from the giant corpse floating in the sky.
