Chapter 247: Luck Species of Ferocious Beast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In vast mountain ranges, three figures were traveling at high speed. They were Lin Haotian, Jiang Jian, and Ping’an. All three of them had suffered varying degrees of injuries and were in a sorry state.
Behind them were torrential flames that drowned the mountain ranges behind them with an aura that could devour the world. The scorching heat even distorted space.
“Damn it, I knew it. How could a One Grotto-heaven realm ferocious beast live alone? I didn’t expect it to be a youngling!”
Jiang Jian gritted his teeth. He tightly held the three-pointed double-edged sword and continuously dodged the trees along the way.
Lin Haotian said helplessly, “Who knew that such a powerful and huge fellow was only a youngling? We’ve indeed suffered a setback.”
“This is my idea. Run first, I’ll restrain it!”
He suddenly turned around and punched out. His clothes fluttered and the terrifying wind from his fist pierced through the sea of fire. An incomparably huge and terrifying ferocious beast was flying towards him from the end of the earth. It was the enlarged version of the feathered black lizard. The difference between the size of the two was like heaven and earth.
The feathered black lizard’s wingspan was unknown as it covered the sky and the sun. Its four claws were larger than a mountain as it swooped down. The violent wind caused the mountains to tremble and the trees to fly.
Lin Haotian was brazen and fearless. He drew a circle with his hands in front of him and then punched out with both fists. The black and white gas condensed into a huge stone plate with patterns similar to the Tai Chi Painting on the surface. The Yin-Yang Fish pushed forward in a spiral and quickly enlarged, rolling up raging flames that shook the mountains and rivers. It was a magnificent sight.
The feathered black lizard narrowed its eyes and opened its abyss-like mouth. A long tongue as large as a mountain stretched out and directly scattered the black and white stone plate. Lin Haotian did not have the time to dodge and was sent flying, crashing into a nearby mountain.
Boom—
Within the rock, Lin Haotian felt as if his muscles and bones were broken. He fely was extreme pain. Even though his will was still strong, he could no longer control his body.
“Damn it… The difference is too great… Am I going to die…”
“Senior, come and save me!”
He opened his eyes and looked through the crack in the stone. He saw that terrifying long tongue attacking him again.
Oh no!
Boom!
A three-pointed double-edged sword shot over like an arrow and pierced through the tongue, nailing it to the ground. The pressure caused the mountains and rivers within dozens of miles to sink and cracks spread out like spiderwebs.
Lin Haotian heard a loud noise from the side. Soon after, a hand grabbed his neck and pulled him out.
He did not need to look to know who it was.
“Brother Pingan, can you be gentler?”
Lin Haotian forced a smile. He was moved. As expected, those two did not abandon him.
Ping’an did not answer him and looked at Jiang Jian.
Jiang Jian looked at his three-pointed double-edged sword in surprise and saw that it was emitting a faint golden light.
The black lizard immediately retracted its tongue in pain, leaving blood all over the ground.
“How did this sword become so powerful?”
Jiang Jian was surprised. After he sparred with Lin Haotian, he had asked Jiang Changsheng to help him increase the weight. Right now, the three-pointed double-edged sword weighed two million kilograms. It was extremely sharp, but it was just heavy.
Little did they know that the three-pointed double-edged sword had been refined into a magical weapon by Jiang Changsheng, and martial artists could not display its full strength. Therefore, Jiang Changsheng could only set up a restriction inside to seal a trace of his spiritual will and spiritual energy. At a critical moment, he could trigger the restriction and display Jiang Changsheng’s strength.
Under Jiang Jian’s gaze, a blue shadow appeared beside the three-pointed double-edged sword.
Divine Power, Dao Heart Divine Transformation!
Dao Heart Clone!
When Lin Haotian saw the Dao Heart Clone, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a smile.
The Dao Heart Clone held the three-pointed double-edged sword with one hand and easily pulled out the 2 million kilogram sword from the ground.
Only then did Jiang Jian recognize that the Dao Heart Clone’s figure was identical to the Dao Ancestor.
He revealed an awkward smile. Instead of feeling excited, he felt ashamed. He seemed to have troubled the old man again.
In the distance, the feathered black lizard flapped its wings and released an earth-shattering roar that shook the mountains.
The Dao Heart Clone leaped up with the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand. In an instant, lightning suddenly gathered on his body, causing the world to change color.
The feathered black lizard opened its mouth and spat out surging magma. It was even more terrifying than the previous flames as it swept across the sky.
The Dao Heart Clone threw out the three-pointed double-edged sword in his hand. The three-pointed double-edged sword that carried lightning condensed into the phantom of a longsword.
Divine Power!
Soul Sense Divine Sword!
The three-pointed double-edged sword directly cut through the torrent of magma and pierced through the throat of the feathered black lizard with unstoppable force. Then, it flew out of the surface of the lizard’s body in a perfect arc and arrived in front of Jiang Jian.
Jiang Jian was stunned.
The same divine weapon could only be smashed in his hands, but in the hands of the Dao Ancestor, it was so spectacular.
Lin Haotian, who was carried by Ping’an, also swallowed his saliva as he watched. He wanted to learn this trick.
Not only was it powerful, but it was also very handsome!
After the feathered black lizard’s throat was pierced, it fell into the mountain ranges. Its wings crushed the mountains, but it did not die immediately. Amid the dust, it opened its scarlet and terrifying eyes.
Boom!
The Dao Heart Clone descended from the sky and stepped on the feathered black lizard’s head, causing the ground to collapse and the cracks to extend hundreds of miles.
When the billowing dust dissipated, Jiang Jian and the other two looked over and noticed that there was another figure above the head of the feathered black lizard other than the Dao Heart Clone. It was Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng held the Classic of Mountains and Seas and began to absorb half of the feathered black lizard’s soul.
This big guy’s net worth had reached twenty million incense points, which had exceeded the Nine Grotto-heaven realm. It would be a pity if he did not accept it.
The feathered black lizard struggled in pain, but it discovered that it could not move. On the way here, Jiang Changsheng asked the Dao Heart Clone to attack first while he used the Taiyan Mountain Movement Technique to absorb many mountains. So, his weight was comparable to a hundred thousand mountains. Coupled with his spiritual energy, he suppressed the feathered black lizard to the extent it could not move.
After so many years, Jiang Changsheng had been getting stronger. Two years ago, his net worth had exceeded 100 million incense points. With so many Divine Powers, how could he not easily suppress this ferocious beast?
If not for the fact that he had to capture it alive, he could have killed it in seconds.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas emitted a strong light that was so dazzling surrounded by rolling dust.
“What’s that?” Lin Haotian widened his eyes and took a closer look.
Jiang Jian was also watching from afar.
Soon after, they saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives. A huge phantom emerged from the body of the feathered black lizard. It was identical to the feathered black lizard, but it was translucent.
That was…
The soul?
The two of them were shocked. In the world of martial arts, there had always been legends of reincarnation and souls. Many vengeful souls would even attach themselves to some artifact or living being and become evil, just like Yin Skeleton and the Head of Punishment. However, martial artists knew very little about souls, and those with low realms could not see the existence of souls.
The reason why they could see it was because of the uniqueness of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which allowed souls to appear.
Under their gazes, half of the soul of the feathered black lizard was split apart and stored into the ancient book in the Dao Ancestor’s hand before disappearing. The remaining half returned to the body of the feathered black lizard. He then stretched out his left index finger and used the Chen Family’s Qi Finger to pierce through its head and heart.
Jiang Changsheng did not leave it alive. As long as half of its soul was in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, he could summon its soul to fight. Keeping it alive would only increase the number of living beings in the Dao World. However, this fellow’s physique was too huge, so it was not good for him to be placed in the Dao World.
Furthermore, Lin Haotian and the other two had killed its offspring, so the seed of hatred had been planted. If it were allowed to grow, even if it was loyal to Jiang Changsheng, it would leave behind future troubles.
In the Great Wilderness, the strong preyed on the weak. Jiang Changsheng did not have the intention to criticize Lin Haotian and the other two. After all, the feathered black lizard had hunted countless young ferocious beasts. There was no morality here.
Jiang Changsheng retracted the Dao Heart Clone and the Classic of Mountains and Seas. After checking that the strongest expert in a radius of tens of millions of miles other than him was only around worth 10 million incense points, he was immediately relieved.
Jiang Jian and the other two flew to Jiang Changsheng.
“Grandmaster, I’m sorry to have asked you to take action again…”
Jiang Jian scratched his head and did not dare to look at Jiang Changsheng.
Lin Haotian, who was on the verge of death, said, “It’s all my fault. I didn’t expect that the guy I killed was only a cub.”
Lin Haotian still had lingering fears as he looked at the corpse of the feathered black lizard that was as huge as a mountain. Even though he had the memories of an ancient Martial Emperor, he had never seen the feathered black lizard in that memory.
Jiang Changsheng said, “The Great Wilderness is very dangerous. Be careful. I can’t always arrive on time.”
As soon as his voice fell, he disappeared into thin air.
Before he left, he cut off one of the feathered black lizard’s claws and disappeared together with it.
Jiang Jian and Lin Haotian finally relaxed.
“Grandmaster is so powerful. He easily dealt with such a powerful ferocious beast. And the last bit…” Jiang Jian sighed. Towards the end, he did not know how to describe it.
Lin Haotian said, “Don’t think about it. Pretend you didn’t see it. After all, he is the Immortal God. Brother Ping’an, you can let go now.”
Ping’an immediately released his grip, and Lin Haotian collapsed to the ground with his legs twisted.
Lin Haotian began to circulate his energy to absorb the blood and qi of this ferocious beast.
Jiang Jian was not idle either. He picked up the rare treasures that were in the feathered black lizard with his three-pointed double-edged sword.
Ever since the demon calamity started, the martial artists of Great Jing had begun to master the method to pick apart demon beast corpses. The stronger the demon beast, the more treasures its corpse contained, and the same applied to ferocious beasts.
Jiang Jian came to the eyes of the feathered black lizard. In front of it, he was like a piece of sand floating in front of it, no, he was even smaller than sand. Just as Jiang Jian was checking, the third eye between his eyebrows suddenly opened and released a powerful suction force that set off waves.
“This is…”
Jiang Jian was surprised. He could sense boundless luck from this ferocious beast. This was something that had not happened when he hunted other ferocious beasts.
“In the 22nd year of the Taihe Ea, Lin Haotian, Jiang Jian, and Ping’an were chased by an adult Great Wilderness Qilin Flood Dragon for hunting its youngling. The Great Wilderness Qilin Flood Dragon is a luck species of ferocious beast that can control volcanoes of the world and bring calamity to the earth. They are good at engulfing all living beings in the world with the power of volcanoes before eating. You took action in time and cut off this karma to obtain a survival reward—Divine Power, Great Ice Seal Divine Skill.”
Just as Jiang Changsheng returned to the courtyard, this notification appeared before his eyes.
Luck species of ferocious beast?
There were such ferocious beasts?
Jiang Changsheng walked to the Earth Spirit Tree and sat down. He asked, “Miss Ji, do you know what is a luck species?
Ji Wujun opened his eyes and said, “According to the records of the Sacred Dynasty, a luck species is a species of creatures born with a certain degree of heaven and earth power. It often appears among ancient ferocious beasts. Some ferocious beasts have the ability to bring benefits to the human world, so they are called auspicious beasts. Others bring bad luck, so they are called calamity beasts. It is said that the ferocious beast of luck itself contains a huge amount of providence that will emerge from the body after death and spread to all parts of the world, waiting to give birth to descendants..”
