Chapter 92: Left Profound Python, Right Fire Lin Beast, Who Can Compete with Me in This Life!
In the valley, the two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts were locked in a fierce battle.
Two immense forces clashed incessantly, the explosive energy waves shaking the entire valley, causing the surrounding mountains to tremble violently.
Countless stones tumbled down the mountainsides, dust kicked up everywhere.
The cultivators who had ventured in to scavenge were totally on edge.
A battle between Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts? Terrifying!
Xiao Yang was just standing by, waiting to pick up the spoils.
If he was going to scavenge, he was going for the biggest prize.
He had his eyes set on these two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts.
You see, the combat strength of a Ninth Level Spiritual Beast was comparable to the peak of the Divine Martial Realm.
Moreover, these two beasts had plenty of room for improvement.
If these two beasts could break through to the Tenth Level, even a presence of the Sacred Martial Realm would have to think twice before tangling with them.
At that moment, a dull roar echoed, and a burst of flame shot out from the valley.
“Boom!”
With a massive explosion, one of the peaks beside the valley was absolutely obliterated by the fire.
Dust shot into the sky as debris flew in all directions.
The Fire Lin Beast had been flung away by the Ice-Bound Profound Python.
“Roar!”
The Fire Lin Beast howled, charging out from the rubble, flames leaping up around it, melting nearby rocks into magma.
It shot upwards, treading the air, transforming into a fireball that dove back into the valley, opening its mouth to unleash a fireball at the Ice-Bound Profound Python.
The Ice-Bound Profound Python lifted its head suddenly, spouting out a torrent of icy blue light to counter it.
“Boom!”
The fireball and icy breath collided in an instant.
A visible ripple in the air spread out from the collision point.
The two powerful forces exploded, sending violent energy waves radiating outward.
The ground churned dramatically from the backlash, like waves in a stormy sea.
Cracks opened up in the mountains surrounding the valley, jagged and chaotic.
Countless stones rolled down from the cliffs.
The two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts were sent reeling back by the Rebound Force.
At this point, both beasts were severely injured, their vitality depleted from the fierce battle.
Their auras weakened considerably.
“Alright, it’s time to end this fight.”
Xiao Yang stretched and loosened his muscles, then stepped forward, appearing directly in the battlefield.
He wanted live Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts—damaged or dead ones wouldn’t do!
If these two kept fighting, it would be a matter of life or death.
“Roar!”
The Fire Lin Beast roared at Xiao Yang.
The Ice-Bound Profound Python also fixed its gaze on him.
If a normal Divine Martial Realm warrior were caught in the glare of two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts, they’d probably be quaking in their boots.
After all, the Gui Yijian was also a top-tier sword master of the Divine Martial Realm, and it had still suffered tremendously at the hands of the Fire Lin Beast.
But he was Xiao Yang.
“Come on, beat me, and I’ll let you go. Lose, and you’re my pet!”
Xiao Yang boldly beckoned the two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts with his fingers.
These beasts had long awakened their intelligence; their IQ was likely on par with humans.
Beasts generally focus on two paths in cultivation.
One keeps their beast form and never turns human.
The other transforms into human form.
Those that can transform become demons.
Right now, the Fire Lin Beast charged at Xiao Yang.
Its horns held the power to pierce gold and stone.
“Futian Sword Technique, Sword and Man United!”
Xiao Yang couldn’t afford to slack off; in the next moment, a surge of sword light enveloped him.
His flying sword fused instantly with his flesh and bone.
At this moment, he was the sword, and the sword was him.
This was the true unity of man and sword.
The Fire Lin Beast was now right in front of him, its sharp claws swiping at Xiao Yang.
The sound of metal scraping echoed, sparks flying everywhere.
The Fire Lin Beast’s claws, capable of piercing gold, merely tore a patch off Xiao Yang’s clothing without causing any harm.
With a furious roar, Xiao Yang launched a punch straight at the Fire Lin Beast’s head.
A violent surge of power erupted from his fist, visibly rippling the air around him.
The Fire Lin Beast let out a wail, sent flying away.
But then, in an instant, a cold, powerful body entwined around him.
The Ice-Bound Profound Python coiled around Xiao Yang like a block of ancient ice, instantly covering him in frost.
This giant python wrapped tightly around Xiao Yang’s torso, squeezing hard.
Xiao Yang felt as if all his bones were about to snap.
The massive head of the Ice-Bound Profound Python appeared right before him, crimson eyes fixated on him.
“Hiss!”
In the next moment, the python opened its gaping maw filled with sharp teeth, aimed straight for Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang spread his arms wide, bracing himself against the beast’s mouth, a foul stench hitting him like a wall.
He almost gagged.
“Buzz!”
With a thought, Xiao Yang unleashed his sword intent, a sword’s cry resonating from him, sending out a storm of razor-sharp sword light that pierced through the Ice-Bound Profound Python’s body, shattering scales, blood spraying wildly.
Futian’s Sword Qi—indomitable.
How dare a mere Ice-Bound Profound Python get this close?
Wasn’t that just asking for a beating?
Despite the Ice-Bound Profound Python’s formidable scale defense, in the face of Futian’s Sword Qi, it was as flimsy as paper.
The python screamed in pain and reluctantly released its grip on Xiao Yang.
With all his might, Xiao Yang slammed the Ice-Bound Profound Python down into the ground.
The python, desperate to escape, rushed away.
“How dare you sneak attack me? I’ll capture you first!”
Xiao Yang flashed a grin, and in the next moment, he lunged after the Ice-Bound Profound Python, leaping high into the air and crashing down, stomping the giant head of the python into the ground.
“Boom!”
The earth erupted.
Xiao Yang’s kick buried the Ice-Bound Profound Python into the ground.
He performed a backflip and landed lightly on his feet.
The Ice-Bound Profound Python shakily lifted its head, unleashing an icy breath toward Xiao Yang.
“Hmph!”
Xiao Yang raised a hand to block the icy breath, instantly covered in frost.
With a violent shake of his right hand, a burst of sword light erupted, shattering the frost before pushing back inch by inch, forcing the icy breath back into the python’s maw.
“Bang!”
With a dull thud, the Ice-Bound Profound Python was sent flying, crashing to the ground, blood spilling as its head drooped weakly.
At that moment, the Fire Lin Beast charged at Xiao Yang again with a roar.
Xiao Yang reached out with his left hand, grabbing the horn on the approaching Fire Lin Beast’s head, and with his right fist, he struck down heavily on its skull, flipping the beast onto its back.
These two Ninth Level Spiritual Beasts were powerful, but after their earlier fierce battle, they’d exhausted a significant amount of energy.
And Xiao Yang? He’d conserved his strength. How could these two possibly stand a chance against him?
Xiao Yang seized the Fire Lin Beast by its horn and dragged it over to the Ice-Bound Profound Python.
Placing his left hand on the head of the Ice-Bound Profound Python and his right on the Fire Lin Beast’s forehead, he pinned both beasts to the ground.
“Futian Beast Control Technique…”
Having inherited the legacy of the Futian Emperor, Xiao Yang directly invoked this ancient beast control technique.
This was the Ancient Beast Control Technique, worlds apart from the current beast taming arts.
In the next instant, as Xiao Yang pressed down on the heads of both beasts, mysterious runes began to flow from his hands, enveloping the two spiritual beasts.
“Don’t resist, or face annihilation!”
Xiao Yang roared.
The Fire Lin Beast and Ice-Bound Profound Python writhed in distress.
They were terrified beyond belief.
Xiao Yang unleashed his full power.
Soon, all the runes enveloping the two beasts surged into their bodies.
Remarkable changes unfolded within both creatures.
Their bodies gradually became transparent, the massive forms shrinking until they transformed into two glowing beast shadows that were drawn into Xiao Yang’s palm.
“Roar!”
Xiao Yang clenched his fists tightly.
Veins bulged on his forehead, and it felt like dozens of things were writhing beneath his skin.
Two immense powers burst forth from his arms.
His left arm felt waves of chilling energy while his right was engulfed in fiery warmth.
Finally, the shadow of the Ice-Bound Profound Python appeared on the inside of his left arm, while the inner side of his right arm displayed the shadow of the Fire Lin Beast.
The powers of ice and fire concentrated on these two beast shadows.
The Ancient Beast Control Technique was incredibly wondrous.
Xiao Yang successfully absorbed the two giant beasts into his arms.
“Left for the Profound Python, right for the Fire Lin Beast. Who can rival me in this life?”
Xiao Yang was overjoyed, delivering a punch toward the opposite mountain peak in the valley.
“Bang!”
With a deafening roar, that mountain peak exploded from his punch.
“Qin Fei, how can you possibly challenge me in this life? Next stop, Black Wind City! I’ll make you feel the taste of living hell!”
Xiao Yang clenched his fists tightly, the phantom images of the Ice-Bound Profound Python and Fire Lin Beast flickering on his arms.
