Chapter 199 Void Beast: This Human Is So Dangerous, Run! (4000)
Chapter 199: Void Beast: This human is dangerous, run!
The Void Lizard Dragon was killed by Wang Xiu with three punches, its body shattered and turned into scattered crystals.
The crystals rained down, and a hazy radiance quietly floated in the air.
Shining with peculiar energy.
Wang Xiu reached out his hand and plunged it into the cluster of light, grasping its essence.
It was a broken sword.
Half of the blade was missing, with an ancient shape, engraved with runes that did not belong to this era, clearly showing signs of decay.
But it still retained an immensely terrifying killing intent.
Having lost the carrier of the Void Lizard Dragon.
Its murderous aura had nowhere to hide, spreading out and turning into a vast sea of killing intent, faintly revealing the remnants of ancient figures, battling within the sea.
The sound of battle cries shook the heavens, like thousands of troops and horses galloping.
"This is a Shura Sword, countless lost souls have died under its blade, even ancient Earth Immortals have been stained with blood under this sword, its master was once extremely glorious!"
Wang Xiu held the hilt of the sword, feeling the waves of Sword Intent emanating from it.
This sword, in its peak period, had an unimaginable strength. After enduring such a long time, the blade had decayed, with most of the runes worn away, yet its power remained unfathomable.
Wang Xiu's most relied-upon Law Treasure at the moment was still the Nether Blood Immortal Executing Sword, which had consumed a large number of pig souls and the blood of many fierce beasts in the ancient forest, gradually recovering to the level comparable to a Supreme Grade Spirit Weapon.
But this sword was different from the Nether Blood Immortal Executing Sword.
The Nether Blood Immortal Executing Sword had been refined by the experts of the Nine Dusks Grotto-Heaven, purging its demonic nature. Although it still relied on the blood of living beings as nourishment, its Sword Intent was pure, winning with sharpness.
The one in Wang Xiu's hand, however, contained the terrifying killing intent inherited from ancient battlefields, born for slaughter. From a certain perspective, its power surpassed that of the Nether Blood Immortal Executing Sword.
Of course, the Nether Blood Immortal Executing Sword had its potential. If Wang Xiu found an opportunity and let it consume enough blood, it could one day return to its peak and become a Saint Weapon.
As for the broken sword, it came from ancient times, with a forging method and runes on the blade that were vastly different from this era. Repairing it would be extremely difficult.
But this still couldn't change the fact that it was a great killing weapon!
...
However, even if this sword could never be repaired, it wasn't a big deal.
In this world of the Void Ancient Road, there should be more treasures like this!
"Although the Void Crystal Core is precious, it's not what I should pursue. These Void Beasts that hide treasures inside them are the most suitable prey!"
Wang Xiu's eyes gleamed as he put away the broken sword and found a secluded place to refine it, leaving his mark on it.
Then he stepped on the sword and flew away.
He had tasted success and had a clear goal, to find these Void Ancient Beasts that contained extraordinary items inside them.
But he soon realized that this method wouldn't work.
This ancient realm was too vast.
The number of Void Ancient Beasts that contained treasures was very small. Along the way, he had only encountered one.
Searching like this would take forever.
With a thought, he came up with an idea.
He found a Void Silver Fox nearby, slapped it to the ground, and set up a formation around it.
Then he had eight Earth Sha Guards hold it down together, struggling on the ground but unable to break free.
"Call out loudly, call your companions here!" Wang Xiu held the broken sword against the Void Silver Fox's body, threatening.
The Void Silver Fox couldn't understand human language and didn't understand Wang Xiu's intentions.
But instinct made it continuously howl, its voice getting louder and louder.
Especially when Wang Xiu used the broken sword to scratch at its vital points, it screamed even louder. If it could cry, it would have already burst into tears.
It could feel that although its physical body was powerful, it was no different from paper in front of that sword.
A single stab would turn it into mush!
The coordination of the Void Silver Fox made Wang Xiu very pleased.
Sure enough, after a while, a large number of Void Beasts surged out from all directions, with more than twenty of them, coming with great momentum and terrifying power.
They stared at Wang Xiu with extreme ferocity in their eyes, as if saying, "Release our people, or you'll regret it!"
Wang Xiu remained calm and snapped his fingers.
Golden figures that had already been ambushed jumped out from behind those Void Beasts.
Holding a big stick in their hands, they fiercely struck at these Void Beasts without saying a word.
They beat these Void Beasts so badly that they cried out in pain.
They wanted to escape.
But they had already entered Wang Xiu's formation, blindly crashing into it and being knocked back every time.
"Hit them hard!" Wang Xiu ordered.
Among this group of Void Beasts, there were none that contained rare items, so they were not his target.
The commotion became louder and louder.
Dozens of Void Beasts roared, running around, shaking the earth, and filling the air with dust and smoke, as if a large army was charging.
In the distance.
A group of cultivators stopped and listened to the commotion here, their faces turning pale. "What's going on?"
"We're done for, we took the wrong path and stumbled upon the lair of the Void Beasts!"
"Quick, let's go!"
"We're going to die, who led the way?"
"It's too terrifying!" A prodigy responsible for scouting flew back, with an exaggerated expression. "I took a distant look and saw a young man in white clothes surrounded by dozens of Void Beasts. It's so pitiful, he has no way to escape, neither to the sky nor to the ground!"
Everyone's faces showed sorrow. "Whose young man is he, so pitiful?"
The prodigy shook his head. "I don't know, the situation on the field is too chaotic, I can't see clearly. He looks quite elegant and appears weak among the group of beasts. He seems to be frightened and doesn't even know how to run away! Alas... I'm afraid he's going to die miserably under the feet of those Void Beasts!"
"Should we help him?" a beautiful female cultivator spoke up, feeling somewhat sympathetic.
The leading prodigy listened to the terrifying commotion from the other side of the mountain, and the thought that had just arisen in his heart instantly extinguished. "We can't help, there are so many Void Beasts, anyone who goes will be on a one-way road to death!"
Roar!
Suddenly, a roar shook the sky, and runes spread throughout the void.
Something big was coming, appearing and disappearing in the high places, covering the sky and blocking the sun. Its true appearance couldn't be seen clearly, but a terrifying aura descended upon this space.
"Run!" they exclaimed.
Their expressions changed, and they hurriedly fled. This place was too terrifying, they couldn't stay for even a moment.
...
"It's here!"
Wang Xiu looked towards the high place. It was a huge spider, weaving a dense and colorful web between heaven and earth, incredibly beautiful, but also full of danger.
Its body emitted a dazzling light, containing rare items.
As it moved its eight legs, ripples appeared in the void, and sparkling Mysterious Light continuously outlined, as if it wanted to crystallize the entire void and freeze it within its domain.
"Roar, roar, roar!"
The surrounding Void Beasts were chased by Wang Xiu's puppets and ran all over the ground.
If they could speak, they would surely be crying out for help!
The humans in front of them were too terrifying.
More terrifying than any humans they had ever encountered!
Wang Xiu raised his hand and the Earth Fiend Guards swung their sticks, knocking down one Void Beast after another. The Heaven Gant Guards, positioned in the distance, picked up their guns, firing in bursts, spewing dragon flames, and accurately hitting the vital points.
Dozens of Void Beasts instantly disintegrated, turning into piles of shattered crystals.
The world fell silent.
The majestic figure slowly descended from the sky, causing the giant spider, which seemed like a king, to freeze in place.
Something's not right!
It seems like it's been lured!
It instinctively sensed danger and tried to turn around.
Thirty-six puppets rushed forward, grabbing hold of its eight legs and forcefully restraining its movements.
Wang Xiu seized the opportunity.
The broken sword in his hand spun and shot out, its red light turning into a terrifying Sword Intent, capable of destroying anything. It pierced through the spider's abdomen.
The spider struggled desperately, countless runes appearing all over its body, but they were erased by the Sword Intent.
Wang Xiu arrived on the spider's back and stomped down.
The void collapsed, like a raging flood, crashing down with a deafening roar.
The spider, made entirely of mysterious crystals, shattered inch by inch. With a mournful cry, it turned into countless shards of crystal.
Only a ball of light remained.
"Hmm? It's a fan?" Wang Xiu took out the treasure from the ball of light. It was a feather fan, completely red, with each feather containing divinity and emitting a radiant light.
These feathers were not ordinary; ordinary birds and beasts did not possess such strong divinity.
At least it had to be a Vermilion Bird descendant with nearly pure blood. Each divine bird would only have a few feathers, which were related to their cultivation. Even for a pure-blood Vermilion Bird with heavenly cultivation, the number of feathers would not exceed five.
It's hard to imagine how many divine birds had to be hunted to create such a fan.
"Although this fan is still incomplete, it is better preserved than the broken sword. It should be an ancient artifact..." Wang Xiu held the fan and tried to wave it. Instantly, a dense mist rose in the world, countless runes surging out, burying the void.
The mist silently ignited, the wind extinguishing the flames without a sound.
Wang Xiu focused his gaze and saw that the vast mountain range below had completely disappeared, as if it had never existed.
"What a terrifying Law Treasure, capable of annihilating enemies invisibly!" Wang Xiu exclaimed in surprise.
Just a casual wave had such divine power.
Despite the runes being incomplete, it could still destroy the heavens and earth, comparable to a half-step Saint Weapon!
What a precious treasure!
Then, Wang Xiu noticed a few words engraved on the fan's handle: "Wind and Fire Five Bird Fan!"
Five birds? Could it be made from the feathers of five divine birds?
Wang Xiu speculated but didn't dwell on it too much.
The past is gone, and the era to which this fan belonged has already passed. Its owner...
Most likely, they had long fallen into the river of time.
Otherwise, this fan wouldn't have ended up here.
...
Once again, he obtained an ancient treasure.
Feeling great, Wang Xiu left the place and continued in the original direction, planning to use the same trick to obtain more treasures.
Not long after he left, a large group of people arrived, numbering in the hundreds.
"Is this the place?"
"Yes, it is!"
"The energy fluctuations in the world are intense here. There must have been a great battle!"
"The young man we just encountered was surrounded by a group of void beasts here. I wonder how he's doing now..." a talented individual frowned and said.
It was the few individuals who had just escaped from here. Unexpectedly, they encountered their sect's large force and immediately reported what they had witnessed. The leading talented individual expressed his intention to come and see.
The scattered few cultivators were prey here, needing to hide and avoid the void beasts, not daring to encounter them.
Becoming a cultivator of scale, here he is a hunter.
Encountering them, there is no reason to let them go.
Especially according to the descriptions of several people, there may have been a king-level void ancient beast here, containing a rare treasure and an inheritance!
However, at this moment, as they arrived here and looked around, it was completely empty, with nothing at all.
It was as if it had been burned by an invisible fire.
Only the chaos in the world proved that those things had just happened.
"What exactly happened?"
"There are indeed traces of a large number of void ancient beasts here, but... where did they all go?"
The leading genius scanned the area with his sharp gaze.
Suddenly, he focused on the ruins below, swiftly descended, and began searching.
The other geniuses followed suit and landed.
"Senior Lin, what are you looking for?" someone asked in confusion.
"Look!" Senior Lin, as he was called, pulled out a piece of broken crystal from the ruins and presented it to everyone.
"This... is the remains of a void beast after death!" one of the geniuses recognized it. "Several junior brothers and sisters said that there were a large number of void beasts here, besieging a young man. Perhaps that young man fought back before he died and replaced one of the void beasts?"
Senior Lin's expression became solemn as he shook his head. "Void beasts are not so easily replaced, unlike others. And I'm afraid there is more to it than just one dead void beast here..."
He had a strong premonition in his heart, but he dared not say it because it was too exaggerated.
Suddenly, he raised his hand and slapped it, causing runes to fill the sky, stirring up a strong wind that swept away the debris on the ground. Countless dust particles floated up, and the ground suddenly "shone."
A vast number of broken crystals covered the ground, reflecting colorful light, as if an immensely huge gem had shattered into pieces here.
As far as the eye could see, it looked like a starry sea had fallen to the ground, incredibly spectacular.
"Oh my god..."
"Wow, so many broken crystals!"
"How many void beasts died here?"
"Even though most void beasts are huge, like mountains, with so many broken crystals, it would take dozens of corpses to account for them..."
"Dozens are not enough, the quantity is too large! It's like being in a desert made of broken crystals!!!"
The geniuses' faces changed, and they exclaimed in astonishment.
This was too astonishing.
"Ordinary void beasts are certainly not enough..." Senior Lin's breathing became rapid, his face alternating between pale and green. The runes on his body were in chaos, and his state of mind was extremely unbalanced, as if he had thought of something incredibly terrifying. "There should be a fallen king-level void ancient beast here!"
As the name suggests, a king-level void ancient beast is also a king among void beasts, dominating a region and having its own territory.
It contains unique and rare items.
Its strength is terrifying.
It is also a tremendous opportunity. If it can be killed, it is enough to change one's destiny and soar to the sky.
However, this kind of existence is something ordinary cultivators simply cannot handle.
They must act together and give it their all.
Even so, there are still too many uncertainties, and a large number of geniuses could lose their lives at any moment, making people both love and fear it.
"Hiss..."
In the crowd, a beautiful female cultivator covered her mouth and took a sharp breath. "Could it be that the young man just now single-handedly killed dozens of void beasts and a king-level void ancient beast?"
Upon hearing this, the heads of all the geniuses felt as if they had exploded, and they felt dizzy.
This... is it possible?
