Chapter 650 Instant KO of a Void State Beast King
A dragon covered in crystals was roaring as it made its way on the ground outside the wall.
That dragon was several hundred meters long and close to eighty meters high. The sharp crystals all over its body were like the spines of a hedgehog. Mixed with the crystals were dragon scales covered in stone grains.
Su Ping recognized it right away as a beast with a Void State bloodline called Crystal Earth Dragon!
That dragon was close to adulthood but was still at the Ocean State. A Void State bloodline didn’t necessarily guarantee reaching the Void State Poorly-trained, or “malnourished,” like this one, the dragon would never reach the Void State in its entire life.
The ground around the tentacles shook violently as the dragon roared. Many crystal walls emerged from the ground and surrounded the tentacles.
The ground was being crystallized.
Stones were gathered on six corners, becoming six crystal pillars which deeply took root, in case the wild beast would try to sneak away underground
“Go and hide!” a man shouted.
He was shouting to the commander-in-chief and the other titled battle pet warriors.
They were too weak to deal with a beast king. They had to find a place to hide.
“That…”
The commander-in-chief and the others were startled by the sudden strike. They had been caught off guard!
The Holy Light Base City had invested heavy money on building beast detectors but they had not alerted them at all. No one had sensed the presence of that beast king!
Since there were many beasts of the stone family, many base cities would be equipped with beast detectors, in case any of them tried infiltrating them through the underground.
The beast detectors used in the Holy Light Base City were among the best!
They should have been able to detect beast kings when they were hundreds of thousands of meters away! But that beast king had popped up too suddenly. It seemed that it had simply teleported to that spot!
But, what beast could teleport across such a long distance?!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The commander-in-chief and the others released their battle pets to cover them as they retreated. They had to find a secure spot and wait for Legend Riverside to handle the battle.
As soon as the commander-in-chief and the others left, Legend Riverside opened up the second swirl and the third without hesitation!
Roar!
Hiss!
Two battle pets came out. The second battle pet was a bird covered in flame feathers; it had fangs and its roar was sonorous. Yes, it was a roar, instead of the usual cry that most birds would utter.
The other battle pet was a python with dark scales and a sharp horn on its head. There were scales of a lighter color mixed with the dark ones. When looking from a distance, the lighter-colored scales were like grayish eyes, which made for a disturbing sight.
Legend Riverside had commanded the two beast kings to charge at the wild beast king as soon as they came out.
A ray of scorching light was shot toward one of the waving tentacles. It looked like the Blazing Ray, but that ray of light was even more destructive. The ray penetrated the tentacle, leaving a gaping hole.
The dark scaled python quickly slithered toward the beast king with tentacles.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The tentacles sensed the approaching enemies and stopped entangling with the pestering titled battle pet warriors and their battle pets; it turned over to face the dark scaled python.
In the meantime, a puff of dark mist oozed out from the ground.
The nearby battle pets that came into contact with the dark mist cried miserably. They were even shedding their fur.
“Poisonous mist!”
“Get away! Block the mist!”
Some titled battle pet warriors shouted and stepped back at once.
The others also stepped away, clearly frightened. They used some of their battle pets to erect wind walls and ice mist to block the toxins.
That mist didn’t seem to disturb the dark python; it continued attacking some tentacles and the ground was shaking as a result.
In the distance, many crystal spikes were coming into being on the Crystal Earth Dragon’s back. The dragon was preparing a major move.
“Damn it. How come that beast is here? Have our detectors failed? I don’t think so.”
“Teleportation? But the beast would have to be at least at the Void State. Not even Void State beast kings could have teleported across such a distance!”
“Didn’t that man say that he had killed twelve beast kings? What’s with this one?” “Do you still believe that? Do you understand what twelve beast kings represent? I will eat my own sh*t if he was able to kill them all by himself!”
The commander-in-chief was anxious. Many titled battle pet warriors and battle pets were unable to get away and they fell, one by one, victims to corrosion. Some of them who could not get out in time were melting like candles. The exposed bones were too horrifying to look at.
The sudden appearance of a beast king was a scary event.
The good thing was that the beast king was outside the wall. If it would have directly appeared inside the base city, the prospect of casualties would have gone beyond what they could even begin to imagine! After all, not many battle pet warriors were stationed inside the base city. The beast king would have ruined everything by the time the protectors of the outer wall were deployed to offer assistance inside the base city!
“Prepare the dark wave radiation missile!”
“Target the beast king’s body. Analyze the data and see if you can find a match in the database!”
“Keep an eye out. I’m worried that this thing is just a distraction and the strike is going to happen somewhere else. There can also be another beast king lurking about!”
The commander-in-chief was issuing orders. Although anxious, the old man was still in control.
The people present followed their respective orders, still afraid and nervous. Another one?
The Holy Light Base City would be doomed if there were another beast king!
Roar!!
While they were busy at work, they heard a dragon’s roar coming from the mist, but the dragon sounded in pain.
There was a bump on the ground. A tower-like behemoth had appeared.
The mist blurred people’s sights; they could only make out an outline.
That thing looked like… a conch!
The shell had a sharp tip, and several thick tentacles were waving. At that moment, there was an enormous strip of shadow cast over the tentacles. The shadow was the python with the dark scales.
The python was being entangled by some tentacles and it was struggling.
The python tried to fight back but nothing had been enough to crack that shell. “Damn it!”
Legend Riverside bit his teeth.
The moment the beast came out, he then noticed its Void State rank!
He wasn’t confident of fighting against a Void State beast, but he was the only legendary battle pet warrior in the base city, so he had to face the challenge! It was just that he didn’t expect that his old friend, the python, would be routed so quickly!
“Merge!”
Legend Riverside quickly merged with the bird. The bird instantly transformed into heavy flames that surrounded him.
After the flames disappeared, a majestic man appeared. Legend Riverside was three times as large as before; he had a pair of red wings with feathers on his body; his hands had turned into claws.
“Go to hell!”
Legend Riverside charged toward the mist.
His whole body was ignited with raging flames; he forcibly blazed a path in the poisonous mist, directly intent on attacking the conch-like beast king
Moo!!
The conch-like beast king sensed that Legend Riverside was approaching. The beast king raised its body and uttered a cry similar to a cow’s moo; the call was echoing in the area.
The titled battle pet warriors who had not yet been freed from the toxic mist covered up their ears and raised shields. And yet, the shields had soon been broken. Soon, some titled battle pet warriors began to bleed through their eyes or noses.
Legend Riverside was flaring up. Ignoring his discomfort, he made a ball of fire and threw it at the beast king.
The ball of fire was murky, albeit destructive.
Bang!
The next second, the fireball disappeared. However, the wall on the other side suddenly trembled.
There was a mushroom cloud.
Legend Riverside narrowed his eyes; his heart was racing
That was the power of a Void State beast king!
He was just one state below, but a beast king of that rank had already mastered spatial techniques. The beast king was practically bullying the weaker Legend Riverside.
Squeak!
The beast king uttered a noise like a squeaking mouse. It seemed that the beast king was openly laughing at Legend Riverside.
The next second, a swirl suddenly appeared in front of him and would soon suck him in.
Legend Riverside knew that he would find turbulent currents in there; stepping into the swirl would mean nothing other than doom for him!
Run!
Legend Riverside turned around at once but another swirl appeared behind him and he almost fell.
“Crystal!”
Affected by fear, Legend Riverside summoned his battle pet.
The Crystal Earth Dragon roared; killing intent was being radiated by the dragon. The thick crystal spike that the dragon had been building was launched.
Whoosh!
It seemed that even the air began to twist. The crystal spike penetrated the toxic mist and landed on the conch-like beast.
Bang. The wild, shelled beast king didn’t see that coming. The spike landed on the shell and the beast king tilted to a side.
Squeak!
The beast king was enraged.
Over a dozen swirls appeared around Legend Riverside. The beast king was determined to pull Legend Riverside in.
Legend Riverside was burning in more intense flames. He wanted to destroy the swirls with the power of fire but the swirls just kept sucking the flames in.
“Oh crap!”
Legend Riverside’s face was clouded. When he was about to take out another artifact to protect his life… The swirls around him suddenly began to collapse and disappear.
A man arrived and pulled Legend Riverside back.
Legend Riverside was caught unprepared. He was thrown back; the last thing he saw was a young man standing in front of the beast.
“You, escaping fish. You should have found a place to hide and live a little longer, instead of coming here.”
“Go to hell!”
Su Ping gazed at the beast king coldly. It was a Six Swirls Conch with a Void State rank, a rare beast born to be skilled with six elements. That type of beast king didn’t have a powerful bloodline; it would only reach the Void State after growing up.
There was a small chance that a Six Swirls Conch could evolve to a Nine Swirls Conch. Su Ping took out his word.
Slay!
Void Sword!
Space was split up in front of Su Ping. A ray of sword light appeared, hundreds of meters long; it silently vanished into the ground.
After the ray of sword light went into the soil, the ground behind the Six Swirls Conch was cracked with a bang.
At the same time, the Six Swirls Conch was frozen on the spot. The next second, the beast was split into two; green blood gushed out, along with the spilling of some internal organs.
The dark scaled python was finally able to get away; it looked at Su Ping in fear. Once there was some distance between them, the snake lowered its head and touched the ground to show its appreciation.
Su Ping darted a glance and put away his sword. That Six Swirls Conch was at the Void State; he was able to tell that the creature was skilled in the stone, darkness and poison elements. He had probably failed to notice the beast king because it had been using strong concealing skills to hide somewhere.
Hiss!
Su Ping suddenly took a deep breath and sucked in the dark mist.
The toxic mist flowed into Su Ping’s mouth, soon taking it all in.
Burp
Su Ping belched and patted his belly. He felt he could skip dinner that day.
He wasn’t immune to toxins, but he was highly resistant.
Su Ping had become used to all kinds of harsh environments in the cultivation sites, including toxic environments. After all, toxic beats were pretty hard to deal with.
In the distance, those who had been busy preparing missiles and plans stopped and gazed at Su Ping while dumbstruck. Did Su Ping just suck in that mist? Did he?
Legend Riverside, who had been thrown back by dozens of meters, stared at Su Ping with a dull look in his face.
It seemed unreal.
Was the Void State beast king cut to death?
