Chapter 402 - Three Hundred and Ninety-Eight: Escape
With such a ruckus in the sky, would Tang Luo have overlooked it? However, as Master had said yesterday, the reason beasts are beasts is because their methods of attack are too predictable. Even the mighty Dragon Clan only has a few attack strategies. Compared to the countless variations and secret techniques of warriors, a beast’s attack is as straightforward as shouting the name of the move before executing it.
Facing the imminent giant wind blade, the silver giant made a move that left all observers astounded. He effortlessly pulled out his right arm that had been “bitten” by the monster. The golden-red beast, which seemed to be in an unbreakable stalemate with him, looked dazed and simply watched as the silver giant withdrew his hand from its mouth.
After pulling out his arm, the silver giant grabbed the tiger’s throat and pulled back. The beast, possessing mountainous strength, unexpectedly lost its balance and fell over. The silver giant squatted down, holding the tiger’s head in one hand and its hind limb in the other. He took a deep breath and shouted, “Lift!”
The enormous beast, resembling a mountain range, was lifted high above the ground by the silver giant’s majestic figure, directly facing the giant green wind blade descending upon them.
Even a hundred years later, everyone would remember this scene: the silver giant, expressionless, holding the golden-red tiger against Master Lu from afar. Just a moment ago this master had been excited, but now his face was deathly pale. The silver giant, like a true god, gazed down at everything below with an indifferent and calm expression.
The green wind blade crashed down on the tiger shield. The strong Spirit Art, capable of cleaving mountains and splitting rocks, split the ferocious body of the tiger as soon as they touched. The tremendous power passed through the tiger’s huge body and landed on the silver giant. Even Tang Luo, with the fifth-rate Undying Body empowered by the Great Mighty Dragon, was forced to bend his knees. Even the ground couldn’t withstand such a powerful force, and web-like cracks spread from beneath the giant’s feet.
The infinite force forced the silver giant’s arms to bend. The Red Moon Flame Tiger, initially held high above his head, was now supported on his shoulders. His legs even sank into a horse stance. But Tang Luo could already feel the most violent force of the wind blade subsiding. And being a possessor of the Great Mighty Dragon’s power, how could he be crushed by a spent force!
“Hold on!!!!!”
Majestic Spiritual Power suddenly flooded his entire body. If not for the god-given silver armor covering the giant’s body, everyone would see the undulating muscles beneath the silver-grey skin of the giant, covering his entirety like rolling hills.
Two large deltoids, resembling enormous longevity peaches, died hugely on his shoulders. The veins on his thigh-like arms bulged out, wrapped like countless steel bars and iron pipes..
The robust blocks of muscles on his abdomen were as clear as terraces. His upper body appeared like an extremely exaggerated giant inverted trapezium. The silver giant held up the tiger, withstanding the mighty force of the green wind blade. The giant beast, used as a shield, was in a pitiful state. It was cut open as if struck with a giant long knife. The torn flesh revealed its organs, and even the toughest tiger bones bore deep grooves cut by the wind blade.
The wind blade exerted with all its might by the aerial ruler, the Iron Wing Eagle, had almost severed the impervious Red Moon Flame Tiger in one strike. This ferocity was unprecedented. The beast’s blood flowed down like a waterfall, pulling up a curtain of blood for the silver giant, demonstrating the fierceness of Tang Luo.
Feeling that the force of the wind blade was completely extinguished, Tang Luo grabbed the tiger’s right leg and threw it forward with all his might. His target was the Ice Phoenix, for he had seen her preparing the second Ice Spear in her mouth.
The whirling tiger, accompanied by the flying blood and flesh, rushed towards the Ice Phoenix like a bloody wheel. The combined force of Tang Luo’s full burst and the Red Moon Flame Tiger’s weight made this almost-comical attack undeniably powerful. The close distance left no room for the Ice Phoenix to dodge. She could only direct her killing move, originally intended for the silver giant, towards the spinning incoming tiger.
Meanwhile, the silver figure was already in a fierce battle with the Iron-winged Hawk. And, like the Crimson Moon Flame Tiger, even the ruler of the sky seemed to be still, maintaining his high-altitude fighting posture, harshly hurtling to the ground and stirring up a cloud of dust.
For such a foolish beast that offered its head willingly, Tang Luo acted without a second thought. He unfolded the Yin-Yang Grinding in the empty space, watching as it careened into it, watching as its soul was crushed and its form helplessly plummeted to the ground.
“How is this possible?”
At this moment, the crowd that had been watching the skirmish could no longer suppress their surprise. Gasps of astonishment entwined together, sucking in the cool air in unison.
They could not figure out how Tang Luo, who had just obtained his Transcendent class abilities, managed to defeat two savage beasts belonging to Michu in such a short time. Could it be that he already had the battle strength of the Fierce Realm?
This was a direct challenge to the accepted abilities of these noblemen. Hence, they revealed an unfathomable fear in their eyes.
And if anyone was to be the most frightened, that would be Michu from Luanfeng, who could not understand how his three mighty savage beasts had proven so weak before the Silver Giant.
The Crimson Moon Flame Tiger, nearly split in half by Wind Blades, was turned into an ice statue when it collided with the Cold Spear. The extreme cold and the boiling blood from the Crimson Moon Flame Tiger collided, causing the collision area to be filled with crimson fog, creating a fog wall that separated the Giant from the Ice Phoenix and obstructing people’s sight.
Looking at the red fog in front of him, Michu’s will to fight had vanished. With the swift deaths of his two beasts, he had quickly realized that Tang Luo mastered some secret technique to killing souls quickly. As an owner of beast soul bloodline, how could he not understand the drawbacks of using the sacrifice technique to call forth savage beasts? However, he had always thought his luck wouldn’t be so bad and a general soul-aimed killing move would just gravely wound the beasts, not directly slay them. The counterattack of the injured beast carried the actual might of the Fierce Realm.
While the three incubated beasts had fragile souls, their combat power was no less than that of any beast that had advanced to the same level naturally. Therefore, even knowing the downsides of using the soul sacrifice to summon beasts, he still did it.
Now, the triumphant Michu who used to command three savage beasts was already engulfed with panic. After the Ice Phoenix managed to freeze the rotating Blood Wheel with a strike, he hastily ordered the Ice Phoenix beneath him to flee.
Upon a resounding phoenix’s cry, the Ice Phoenix flapped its wings, tore away from the ground and flew to the south. All the spectators were dumbfounded. Michu, the famous Noble from Xiling, was actually fleeing in a life-and-death battle?
For a moment, the crowd on the other side of the blood fog was in a stir. None of them had thought that Michu, a noble of the overbearing Xiling civilization, would turn out to be this sort of character. In a life-and-death match, he didn’t hesitate when the situation went south, escaping without even admitting defeat.
At this moment, the monument dedicated to Michu in the hearts of the people crumbled dramatically, and jeers echoed from every corner.
