Divine Brilliance - Chapter 825
Chapter 825: Animal animal
Driving that Royal Demon God Shuttle from Tianfang World to the place where the ships were hiding at only took an hour.
The moment Zong Shou got close he could sense the spiritual energy raging out from that direction.
His brow rose up, a look of worry flashed across his eyes.
“They seem to be fighting and their opponent doesn’t seem weak…”
From the spiritual wave fluctuation their enemy was at least Celestial Realm.
His eyebrows frowned. The strongest in the fleet were just Ruoshui and Shi Ruolan those two girls.
The former used the Jade Xuan Clear Purple Pill and was showing signs of breaking through to the Spirit Realm.
She had twenty percent spirit and martial arts merger completion which was enough to sweep people of the same grade.
The three hundred thousand soldiers on the ships were the top elites from Great Gan!
However the problem was that Ruoshui wasn’t good at army fighting and killing and was unable to utilise the power of the troops.
As for Shi Ruolan, she was till young…
He really didn’t dare imagine the tragic state over there.
Zong Shou was anxious, using all his soul power to accelerate his movement speed.
He also found it really weird, the place he chose was really hidden and secluded, it was something that he found about when he looked through the books at Common People Path.
It was the best spot to hide soldiers and there shouldn’t be Celestial Realm beasts who passed through here. So what happened?
In a few breaths he flew over. Zong Shou looked out in shock.
The place of the battle wasn’t where the ships were hidden but nearby within a world river.
those six hundred thousand feet long spaceships were in battle with a ten thousand feet long giant beast.
It looked like a Golden Fire Lion, its body covered in golden scales. Not only was it huge but it was light and nimble.
It dashed about within the void, frequently roaring out, its furious shouts shaking the void.
However this beast although looking really majestic, but at this moment it’s eyes were filled with exhaustion.
Those six spaceships were moving as fast as it, circling all around it to attack it together.
When the Fire Lion proceeded forwards, they would retreat. When it retreated they would head forwards to maintain enough distance between one another.
It was totally unable to break free and was slowly being withered down.
They would also shoot out Energy-Destroying Crossbows in unison, although it was unable to heavily injure the Celestial Grade Golden Scale Fire Lion but it was able to make it worry a little.
It covered the skies, with a sufficient amount and speed at which they were firing, it was unable to dodge at all.
Under the buffs from formations, those Grade Nine giant crossbows were able to forcefully break through the thick golden scales of the lion.
On the six ships, there seemed to each have Spirit Realm experts on board in case of danger to block the abilities of the Fire Lion.
Zong Shou was startled and then just stood at the side to quietly spectate.
In a short moment, there were many more wounds appearing on the body of the lion.
It wasn’t as nimble as light stepping on the void as preciously.
Zong Shou looked out from afar and saw that the six ships were advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. It pretty much predicted the actions and movements of the lion.
Even if the Golden Scale Fire Lion showed that it was weak, they didn’t let their guard down at all.
Carefully striking and slowly wittering it down.
“Six spaceships commanded like they were an arm and a leg, really not bad! Is that Ruolan? No wonder this brat could use a weak force to defeat the Night Demons and Great Yue. Is this the skill of an Unparalleled Famous General? She really deserves her fame…”
If not for Zong Shou, Shi Ruolan should be helping her Brother fight.
With a few broken ships to strike out to pillage and steal winter rations of the humans. She won all the battles she fought and gained strength quickly. Under the Cloud Ocean she was able to form the foundations of an Emperor Dynasty,
Today she commanded six spaceships to try to kill a Celestial Realm beast!
“However these Energy-Destroying Crossbows are pretty much a bottomless pit, their consumptions are huge. Where did she get so many Grade Nine beast crystals from…”
Naturally if she could kill this giant beast then everything would be earned back.
Even a scale on the beast would be far more expensive in value than what a Grade Nine beast could compare to.
Just as he was having nonsensical thoughts in his head, a giant ship got too eager and got closer and closer.
A bright light flashed in the eyes of the giant lion, a glow exploding from its body as its speed increased. It leapt right towards the boat.
Before it was able to reach, the fire red flames already swept over. The sharp claws broke through space as it struck.
Zong Shou slightly frowned, taking out the Nameless Sword and was prepared to hep out.
He didn’t understand how Ruolan would make such a mistake.
In the next instance hundreds of talismans shot out, cutting off the flames and using it to propel the ship’s speed to three times before.
By a millimeter it avoided the giant claw that broke through the air.
All around, hundreds, thousands of Energy-Destroying Crossbows shot in unison.
That Fire Lion was caught off guard and was unable to avoid. After crying out, many bloody holes exploded out around its body.
“So it was a trap, a plan within a plan? Interesting…”
Zong Shou’s eyes flashed. He smiled as he kept the sword and continued to look on quietly.
What happened next was really safe and expected, it was really stale and uninteresting.
However due to that Zong Shou was able to notice what was extraordinary within.
It was like each step the six spaceships took were precisely planned, excluding all possibilities of accidents.
They stuck to the plan, calmly and orderly proceeding. The process was really smooth and there wasn’t much of a fight at all.
The six ships and the beast battled for half a day just like that.
In the end the fire lion really ran out of energy.
Only then did they toss out a huge net to restrict the giant beast.
Then hundreds of talismans that looked like Energy Destroying Spirit Upheaval Talismans to prevent the Golden Scale Fire Lion to explode its own beast pellet in despair.
Another four hours passed until the giant beast was totally silent.
Zong Shou’s body turned into a light and charged into one of the giant ships.
This boat was his flagship and was also called Gantian.
It was crafted from the giant piece of wood he got from the hands of Jia Mingluo.
Using it as a dragon bone, crafting precisely by the Kongqi Sect, it was not only the strongest of the six, its outer shell was also the toughest.
He entered the ship and only until he reached the small sized palace specially built for him did someone notice.
After which the faces of the guards were all filled with joy.
As expected Shi Ruolan was here, sitting beside his throne and giving off orders to command the ships.
At this moment the Gantian Ship was filled with thunderous cheers.
Not only did no one die during this hunt, they also gained huge amounts of profits.
A Celestial Realm Golden Scale Fire Lion, just one beast pellet from it was more than enough to cover their consumption from this battle.
Not to mention the other parts of it being rare treasures. Those tens of thousands of scales could also be made into thousands of Grade Nine Magical Treasures.
At the start Ruolan was totally focused on the battle outside. Ruoshui held up her chin, her eyes are a little lazy, while also interestingly looking at her actions and arrangements.
Moments later did they finally notice the change in atmosphere as they rose their heads. Only then did they notice that Zong Shou was already in front of them.
“Brother Shou, Senior Master!”
Shi Ruolan was first delighted and then she thought about something, grumbling, “Senior Master you should have arrived long ago? Why were you watching the show from the outside?”
Zong Shou’s face turned bitter. Being too senior was actually not that good, being called like that made him feel really old.
He patted her head, “There are no one else here, you are my Sister so call me Brother or King Brother! Our Common People Path doesn’t care much about this seniority, as long as you know how to respect each other then it is fine…”
If Zhao Yanran was here she would definitely scold out and expose Zong Shou for his hypocritical ways.
At the start who was it that forced her to call him Great Great Great Great Great Senior Master? That she couldn’t even miss out a single one?
Shi Ruolan was really happy, enjoying the closeness and love from Zong Shou. She smiled and moaned in satisfaction like a cat meowing.
Zong Shou instantly felt his heart jump, why did his body heat up, his beastly instincts growing.
Was he really an animal?
Although Shi Ruolan was a little taller, but like the Snow Lion of the Palm like her title suggests she looked like a twelve year old kid.
Ruoshui didn’t speak, using pure and clear eyes to look at Zong Shou.
It was filled with emotions like she was asking him how was it these few months? Did you meet any danger?
His body instantly stiffened. His eyes showed a weird expression filled with disdain.
The current her wasn’t as ignorant and uninterested about male and female matters like months ago.
He felt his face burning up, awkwardly retracting his hand. He then coughed and started to change the topic.
“This is weird, I don’t remember bringing so many beast crystals. What is up with this Golden Scale Fire Lion?”
Changing the topic and shifting their attention. This technique was something that Zong Shou was really familiar and skilled with.
From his tone, it was also something that he was really curious about.
“A portion came from Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction as well as Common People Path. A portion was obtained by Miss Ruolan along the way from hunting. She said that there was no harm being prepared, as expected we really had use for it today…”
that voice was really stable and calm while filled with some sharpness.
Zong Shou turned around in shock, his eyes filled with surprise.
The person in front of him was Feng Taiji who was regarded as one of the Six Pinnacle Swords, whose name suppressed the other five.
He remembered that when they first met he felt that this person seemed really innate but loved to flaunt, looked really humble and polite but was actually really arrogant.
Now looking at him, he seemed to have totally changed.
Calm and humble, gentle like a jade, giving one a good impression of him.
Speaking of which Sword Sect and Buddhist Faction both participated in his conquering of the outer region.
A few of them, especially the former placed a lot of importance on it.
So the one leading the Sword Sect was Feng Taiji?
Zong Shou was admiring that Ten Thousand Sword Vast Habitat Head Lingchen’s teaching methods while feeling curious about why they would send him over.
