Chapter 64 The Enraged Chi Qiong, His Sword Technique of Greedy Wolf Slays Evil
Night Rain unconsciously clenched her fists, her knuckles turning white, and she said coldly:
"I will destroy your Xuanwu Sect sooner or later."
Although his words were harsh, the current situation did not allow him to continue entangled with the Xuanwu Sect.
Deep within the Black Wind Forest, the roar of the strange beast Chi Qiong shook the ancient trees.
The dense foliage fell in a rustling sound, and the ground could even feel a slight tremor.
The ferocious aura originating from the beast rushed towards us like a tidal wave, making it hard to breathe.
Chiqiong was entirely crimson, with limbs as thick as pillars, sharp claws deeply embedded in the soil, and the bony spikes at the tip of its tail gleaming with a cold light.
His eyes, as big as copper bells, held only pure killing intent and madness.
It shook its head, letting out a low growl, its eyes fixed on the crowd, ready to pounce at any moment.
Ye Tingyu slightly turned his body to avoid the strong wind that Chi Qiong was rushing towards him.
Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted Zuo Er holding a jade flute not far away. His brow furrowed, and he roared sharply, "Hey you, the one playing the flute, summon a strange beast for me right now!"
The second from the left is a disciple of the Xuanwu Sect who is skilled in summoning exotic beasts. He is currently holding a jade flute, and his expression is full of dissatisfaction.
Ao Han said, "Do as he says."
Suppressing his resentment, Zuo Er no longer hesitated and brought the jade flute to his lips.
The melodious yet alluring sound of a flute slowly rose into the air.
The flute music was unlike any other melody; it was deep and melodious, carrying a strange rhythm that seemed to penetrate the heart and reach the depths of the beast's soul.
From among the ancient trees in the distance came heavy footsteps, accompanied by a low growl, growing ever closer.
A huge one-legged rhinoceros slowly emerged from behind the dense ancient trees, its body even more robust than Chiqiong's.
Its entire body is dark brown, its skin is rough like rock, and its single horn on its head is straight and sharp, with a cold metallic luster. Only one thick hoof is firmly planted on the ground, and each step makes the ground tremble slightly.
The moment the one-legged rhinoceros appeared, Chi Qiong launched a sudden attack, his figure shooting towards Ye Tingyu like an arrow released from a bow.
The sharp claws carried a fierce wind, as if they wanted to tear Ye Tingyu to shreds.
Ye Tingyu's eyes sharpened, and she nimbly leaped to the side, narrowly avoiding Chi Qiong's sharp claws.
The claws grazed his robes, tearing a slit in the fabric and carving several deep furrows in the ground.
With a light step, Ye Tingyu leaped up like a swallow and landed steadily on the broad back of the one-legged rhinoceros.
Startled, the one-legged rhinoceros let out a low growl, trying to shake Ye Tingyu off.
But Ye Tingyu's hand was already firmly pressing down on its back.
He gathered a sharp burst of energy at his fingertips and plunged it into the spine of the one-legged rhinoceros without hesitation.
"Well--"
The one-legged rhinoceros let out a painful howl! Its body began to struggle violently!
But Ye Tingyu's hand remained motionless, his fingertips probing deeper and deeper, as if searching for something!
"【The One-Horned Rhinoceros Spinal Cord Sword】!"
Night Listening to the Rain's Low Cry
With his shout, the hand that had been inserted into the one-legged rhinoceros's spine suddenly pulled out, and a surge of silvery-white energy instantly flowed out from the one-legged rhinoceros's body, enveloping his arm.
Immediately afterwards, the one-legged rhinoceros's body began to undergo rapid changes. Its massive body shrank and condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its scales fell off.
The muscles dissolved, eventually transforming into a greatsword of pure, dark gray color!
The sword was covered with fine patterns, which were formed from the spinal cord of the one-legged rhinoceros. The blade was extremely sharp and gleamed with a cold light.
Ye Tingyu gripped the sword hilt firmly, feeling a surge of immense power flowing into her body through the hilt!
That was the life force of the one-legged rhinoceros, violent and powerful!
He flashed forward, wielding a greatsword, and swung it fiercely at Chi Qiong, who had just turned around.
The enormous sword energy, carrying immense bull-like force, slashed down at Chi Qiong like Mount Tai pressing down!
"Bang—"
With a deafening roar, the greatsword and Chi Qiong's claws collided violently!
The enormous impact spread out instantly, snapping the surrounding ancient trees in half and creating a huge shockwave that forced everyone present to retreat!
The man and the beast were locked in a fierce struggle!
The greatsword relentlessly suppressed Chi Qiong's claws. The immense power collided, producing a piercing metallic scraping sound, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood and dust.
"This is?!"
The second from the left was shocked.
He had never seen or heard of anyone being able to forcibly requisition the power of a strange beast in such a brutal way, or even turn the beast itself into a weapon!
"That's why the leader wanted to restrain him. Generally speaking, to control a beast, one needs to sign a beast contract with it and go through a long period of adjustment and nurturing before one can barely borrow some of its power. To completely control it is even more difficult than climbing to the sky."
Ao Han explained:
"However, he was able to disregard the contract and forcibly requisition all the power of the beast by 'contacting the core of the beast' on the condition that he could do so, and even refine the beast's body into a weapon."
This kind of supernatural power is completely beyond the realm of common sense.
The moment the words were spoken, the situation on the field changed.
Although Ye Tingyu relied on the power of the Unicorn Rhinoceros Spine Sword to fight Chi Qiong to a standstill.
But fine beads of sweat had already seeped from his forehead, and his arms were slightly numb.
He knew in his heart that this Chiqiong was an ancient ferocious beast with unfathomable strength.
Right now, this beast isn't using its true power at all; it's just testing him.
Chi Qiong seemed to have grown impatient and let out a deafening roar.
It suddenly pressed its four claws firmly against the ground, its massive body sinking slightly, and a strange and powerful force surged from its body, winding forward like a serpent.
Wherever it passed, the ground trembled slightly, and the soil began to soften.
Ye Tingyu felt a tightness in her chest, realizing something was wrong, and wanted to back away.
But the soil beneath their feet suddenly began to decompose and recombine.
Thick earthen pillars rose out of thin air, instantly trapping him inside and forming a sealed earthen prison!
The walls of the earthen prison were incredibly hard. Ye Tingyu, wielding the One-Horned Rhinoceros Spine Sword, slashed fiercely at the earthen walls.
No matter how hard he tried, the earthen wall would immediately rebuild itself after breaking, and after all that effort, not even a trace was left.
Ao Han observed the situation on the field and said in a deep voice, "Even if this kid has such talent, he's no match for Chi Qiong right now. Attack together!"
"It's the elemental power of Chi Qiong!" Ao Han exclaimed. "Xu San, make your move!"
The man called Xu San was burly with a face full of scars. Hearing this, he immediately responded and raised his right hand.
His contracted beast is named Iron Arm Ape, which possesses the throwing power to move mountains and rivers with ease.
Xu San took out three fist-sized iron balls from his waist.
The iron ball is entirely black, forged from refined iron, and contains immense power.
With a flick of his wrists, two iron balls, accompanied by a whistling wind, hurtled towards Chi Qiong, while the other was precisely thrown into the earthen cell that imprisoned Ye Tingyu.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three loud bangs rang out in succession!
Two iron balls slammed into Chi Qiong's back, and Chi Qiong let out a painful roar, his massive body staggering back a few steps.
The scales on its back were smashed off, and red blood seeped out.
Meanwhile, the other iron ball slammed into the wall of the earthen prison, and the enormous force instantly shattered the hard earthen prison, sending dirt flying everywhere.
Seizing the opportunity, Ye Tingyu flashed out from the ruins of the earthen prison.
He flicked his wrist, a hint of impatience on his face, and casually tossed out two words: "Thanks."
Roar! ! ! !
Xu San's two iron balls completely enraged Chi Qiong even more!
Chi Qiong raised his head and let out a roar that shook the heavens and the earth.
Immediately afterwards, a strong wind suddenly arose in Black Wind Forest, and the already dim sky became even more gloomy, with thick clouds covering the sky and blocking out all the light, leaving only pitch black.
Strands of crimson lightning weaved and rolled through the dark clouds, emitting a piercing roar, and the blinding crimson light illuminated the entire Black Wind Forest.
The next second, streaks of crimson lightning, like angry dragons, struck fiercely at Ye Tingyu, Ao Han, Zuo Er, Xu San, and the others on the field.
A pungent, burnt smell filled the air, and the shadow of death instantly enveloped everyone!
"You wretched woman, aren't you going to make a move?" Ye Tingyu roared at Ao Han.
Ao Han snorted coldly, made a hand seal, and ice-blue extreme cold birds appeared out of thin air.
The Arctic bird shot out like an arrow, colliding with the crimson lightning and freezing it solid!
"We succeeded!" Ao Han exclaimed with joy, but Ye Tingyu's anxious voice came through: "Watch out underground!"
Rumbling--
The ground beneath Ao Han's feet began to crack, and a gigantic beast suddenly charged out!
While everyone was dodging and dealing with the lightning, the giant Chiqiong actually burrowed into the ground and used earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or technique) to launch a sneak attack!
Ao Han was unable to dodge in time and was sent flying straight away, plummeting miserably like a kite with a broken string.
At the critical moment, Ye Tingyu leaped into the air and caught her with one hand.
"Is your leader an idiot? He only sent a few of you to subdue the Chiqiong. He's either stupid or wicked."
Ao Han bit her lip. Before they came, they were only told that Chi Qiong was more difficult to deal with. The main purpose of this trip was to test Ye Tingyu's abilities. They never expected to fall into such a predicament.
"I'm leaving. This thing is tough and strong, and it can control the power of nature. If you insist on fighting, I'll put you down right now." Ye Tingyu turned and left quickly.
"But..." Before Ao Han could finish speaking, something strange suddenly happened ahead.
Dust billowed as a large number of winged humanoid monsters came rushing towards them.
"They are beast slaves under Yan Xiao's command," Zuo Erxi said.
Ye Tingyu sneered, "Does Ni Hai know that his subordinates are such a bunch of heartless beasts?"
Ao Han remained silent for a moment, then slowly said, "With so many beast slaves coming to help, even Chi Qiong will find it troublesome. We can take this opportunity to launch a sneak attack on it."
"Stupid women," Ye Tingyu cursed mercilessly. "Take a closer look. Your stupidity has completely enraged it."
Everyone looked over and were immediately taken aback.
The Crimson Beast, several tens of feet long, was constantly expanding, turning completely crimson, with its scarlet blood vessels conspicuously exposed to the air. At this moment, this ferocious beast resembled a volcano about to erupt!
"Do you know why it's so angry?" Ye Tingyu said as she desperately tried to escape the scene, "Because the meat your stupid leader fed to the beast slaves was its own child!"
Before the words were even finished, a massive firestorm engulfed the entire Black Wind Forest, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky!
……
……
the other side.
"The letter seems to have been read; it appears they have already arrived in Liuzhou."
Li Qingchen took out the child scroll of the mother-child scroll. He only needed to run the secret technique to reach Liuzhou in a very short time.
"There's no rush yet."
Li Qingchen opened the game as usual.
[Moon Bay hosted another grand banquet. Learning from the previous incident where demons infiltrated the area, the chef implemented strict security measures this time, requiring each attendee to present a unique meal ticket.]
[You, disguised in fox fur to conceal your presence, are stopped at the gate by the guards because you lack meal tickets and cannot enter.]
"Tsk, these damn things have actually gotten smarter."
[The "Strong Luck" talent has been triggered!]
[You linger near the banquet, unwilling to accept defeat.]
You stumble upon a one-eyed man, only half of his body remaining, in a secluded corner.
He was ragged and lifeless, only his single eye remained wide open, still holding onto resentment and obsession, and he seemed to be tightly clutching something in his hand.
You picked it up and saw that it was a book on swordsmanship.
You take out a revolving lantern and watch his/her life unfold.
The one-eyed man was originally a fool, but from a young age he was obsessed with martial arts, admiring those masters of unparalleled skill who slew demons and monsters, and always harboring the dream of becoming a strong person.
Driven by this dream, he spared no expense, exhausting his family's wealth to seek out renowned masters. He eventually became an apprentice of a swordsman who called himself the "God of Swords," from whom he obtained a seemingly ancient yet profoundly meaningful swordsmanship manual.
However, fate had other plans. Just as he was overjoyed, believing he had finally found a shortcut to becoming a powerful figure, someone exposed the swordsman's true identity.
This swordsman is not a "sword master" at all; he's just a fraudster!
That so-called swordsmanship manual was nothing but a fabrication, completely illogical and not some kind of peerless technique that could make one stronger!
The swordsman was driven away, but the one-eyed man refused to accept this fact and continued to practice diligently.
Day after day, year after year, the one-eyed man practiced for ten years without any improvement. He seemed obsessed with his sword practice, refusing to give up no matter how others tried to persuade him.
Someone told the one-eyed man that the city lord of Moon Bay possessed the extraordinary ability to turn stone into gold, which might guide him onto the right path.
[So the one-eyed man traveled a long way to Moon Bay and successfully met the city lord, who was still alive at the time.]
Moved by the one-eyed man's unwavering determination, the Lord of Moon Bay City truly transformed the sword technique manual into something extraordinary. The one-eyed man was overjoyed and knelt down to express his gratitude.
Unfortunately, on the way back, the one-eyed man, driven by unbearable hunger, happened upon a portable kitchen, where a crazed chef cut off half of his body and took it away.
[You're really lucky; you managed to snag this incredibly realistic sword technique from him: Greedy Wolf Slaying Evil.]
This sword technique is full of hidden secrets and possesses immense destructive power. Furthermore, it requires human martial artists to be free from any other martial arts besides swordsmanship.
[You realize with delight that this martial art was practically tailor-made for the Ghost General. Because ghost pets aren't human to begin with.]
Do you choose to slay the evil spirit and pass on the skills to the Ghost General?
