Translator: 549690339
Inside the valley, a raging red tide swept forward like an ocean wave, instantly engulfing the entire valley. Following it, a demonic roar echoed, causing the boulders to collapse and dirt waves to foam.
Within this red tide, two young women showed terrified expressions as the powerful wave of force jolted them into wavering, their faces turning pale.
Amid the violent shaking of the valley, an enormous savage beast roared towards the sky, its crimson eyes locked onto the two women. Its body was alit with flames akin to hellfire, sending chills down one’s spine.
One of the women, who appeared to be around twenty years old, pushed her companion aside, her long sword suddenly emanating a dazzle of green light: “Junior Sister, watch out!”
Just as her words fell, she leapt into the air, her long sword brandishing with an imposing momentum, charging toward the beast.
“Senior Sister Ning!” The Junior Sister exclaimed in horror and also lunged toward the beast. Her staggering figure was swatted by the beast’s tail and she fell to the ground.
The beast was as ferocious as a wolf and a tiger combined, its terrifying body spanned thirty feet, emitting a cultivation of the Golden Core Stage, the frenzied surge of energy from the beast burnt the surrounding rocks into ashes.
“Damn!” Yang Zhen, who was lying on the hillside, was taken aback. He gazed in astonishment at the terrifying scene unfolding before him: “Why is there a beast present here?”
Roar!
The beast roared and bared its teeth, unleashing a wave of fire towards the two women, creating a massive pit blasted into the ground.
The duo quickly jumped to the side, the woman surnamed Ning gritted her teeth, a dash of desperation flashed in her eyes.
A beast of the Golden Core Stage was far more powerful than a human practitioner at the same stage.
Beasts inherently had physical advantages and coupled with their progress in cultivation being hard-won, they were often able to crush human practitioners on the same level.
The woman surnamed Ning obviously intended to let her junior sister escape alone. However, the difference in strength was too drastic. Presently, not to mention both of them leaving together, even if one of them got away, it wouldn’t be an easy feat.
Just when the woman surnamed Ning was on the brink of despair, she suddenly spotted Yang Zhen lying on the hillside and immediately shouted: “Young Master…”
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhen turned around and ran. He thought to himself, ‘what a joke, this is a beast of the Golden Core Stage! You two daring women provoked this creature and now you want to pull me into the mess?’
Run. He must run. And run immediately!
Yang Zhen instantly disappeared from the sight, which left the woman surnamed Ning dumbfounded.
The Junior Sister, who had been lying on the ground and only just managed to get up, opened her mouth in disbelief and stomped her foot angrily, “What is with this guy? Not only did he choose not to save us, but why would he run so fast?”
The woman named Ning gave a resigned smile and swiftly avoided a breath of fire from the beast, she said dejectedly: “Forget it, that young man was only at the Minor Mahayana Phase. Even if we joined hands, we wouldn’t be a match for this beast. It was understandable that he chose to escape.”
“What young master? He is nothing more than a coward. While we two women are fighting for our lives here; he had the audacity to refuse to help us! Ugh! Let’s not talk about this coward now. Senior Sister Ning, what shall we do? How could a beast of the Golden Core Stage be here?”
Roar!
The beast, growing impatient with its failure to bring down the two women, erupted another fire wave that covered half the sky. As it roared towards the sky, waves of fire rushed towards the two women.
“Not good!”
Various expressions crossed the face of woman surnamed Ning, turning pale. She gritted her teeth, put away her long sword, turned to her Junior Sister, and revealed a brilliant smile, saying, “Junior Sister, live to tell our story!”
“No!” The Junior Sister’s face changed dramatically as she hurriedly rushed towards the woman surnamed Ning, shouting, “Senior Sister, don’t!”
“Go now!”
With a stern face, the woman surnamed Ning started floating slowly. Waves of frenzied energy surged around her body. A curve of resolve appeared at the corner of her mouth.
“If I have to die under the forbidden technique of our sect, I, Ning Yiling, shall have no regrets!”
Buzz!
All of a sudden, dazzling green light spread throughout the sky and earth. Ning Yiling took one last look at her Junior Sister, a sense of longing swirling in her eyes. As she turned around, her expressive eyes were filled with determination. Behind Ning Yiling, a magnificent green light emerged, creating the illusion of a Green Luan. The illusion slowly took form and with a roar towards the sky, it charged towards the beast.
Ning Yiling’s body, as if it had drained all its strength, fell from mid-air. Instead of running away, her Junior Sister cried out in shock and rushed forward to protect her.
“Senior Sister, you mustn’t die!”
Ning Yiling gave a bitter smile, laboriously glanced at her Junior Sister, and muttered to herself, “Junior Sister, why are you so foolish?”
“With Master gone and you leaving too, what’s the point of me living?”
Boom !
An earth-shattering sound echoed, a terrifying wave of energy blasted the surrounding rocks into pieces. Amidst the crumbling rocks, ferocious beasts roared and howled. An overwhelmingly wild wave of energy that changed the color of the world tore the clothing on Junior Sister’s back into shreds, revealing her blood-soaked back.
Roar!
The beast roared skyward, a terrifying wave of fire swept through the world, Ning Yiling and her Junior Sister’s faces turned pale.
Yang Zhen was running faster than a rabbit, he was genuinely swift!
It was a joke. Faced with a beast of the Golden Core Stage, not to mention him, even Yuan Kong or Luo Kun, those two fellows who always looked down on others, would also run. If they didn’t run, they would die.
Yang Zhen was not a fool who would become distracted when seeing a woman. Though the woman named Ning was indeed beautiful, even slightly more attractive than Hua Youyue.
Yet, there was no point in her looking good if she didn’t live long enough to admire it. Even if she was as beautiful as a fairy, once that beast killed her, she would still end up being eaten piece by piece.
Yang Zhen sighed regretfully. What a tragedy for a beauty like her.
As Yang Zhen was running, he suddenly felt odd. How could there be a beast here?
Let alone a beast, on his journey here, Yang Zhen didn’t even see a rabbit’s hair. Although there were some birdsong and fragrance of flowers, those were spiritual items, not living beings.
At that thought, Yang Zhen’s heart jolted. That beast might not be a real beast at all.
Being born spiritually and transforming into a beast after one hundred breakthroughs was to be a Mysterious Beast!
This was a Mysterious Beast, a beast that had passed the hundred-breakthrough stage.
On realizing this, Yang Zhen’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly turned his head to run back.
This was terrible! A Mysterious Beast appeared in the second layer of this world. If Yang Zhen guessed right, this Mysterious Beast should be the world treasure of the second layer.
Legend said that the crystal core of a Mysterious Beast could form a barrier in a practitioner’s dantian. Not only could it protect the practitioner’s life during a catastrophe, but it also had a certain chance of allowing the practitioner to break through and form a stronger dantian spirit root.
It could even coalesce into the legendary unique spirit roots. It was a treasure that was even more precious than the Creation Fruit.
How could Yang Zhen just stand by and see such a thing slip past his eyes?
Even if it meant risking his life, he had to try and get it.
When Yang Zhen arrived back at the valley, the two sisters were lying on the ground, looking in horror at the beast falling from the sky.
A violent wave of energy erupted from the body of the beast. As it flamed fiercely, the surrounding air became distorted with heat.
The sisters were in horror. Yang Zhen watched in admiration. Despite her desperation, Ning was still breathtakingly beautiful, looking ethereal and captivating. However, she was lying in an awkward position, spread-eagled on the ground.
But these did not matter to Yang Zhen. As he saw the beast pouncing towards the sisters, he shouted angrily, “Beast, let go of the girl!”
Upon hearing the voice, the two terrified and desperate women quickly looked up to see Yang Zhen.
In the afterglow, Yang Zhen rushed in, stepping on rainbow-like auspicious clouds, draped in the warm sunlight, looking devastatingly handsome!
“It’s him!” Ning Yiling’s face lit up: “He’s back!”
