Chapter 396
Chapter 396 Giant Tail
“It’s your turn . ” Zai Feng said dismissively while he pocketed the fire beast core . It was not the best time to target the fire beasts that were far from the bank . But Zai Feng didn’t care .
Everyone looked at each other cautiously . Finally, the woman from the ancient city of Dunhuang strode forth, ” Well, if no one else will act, then I won’t stand on ceremony . ”
She walked to the side of Magma River . There were only a few fire beasts that could be seen and they were far from the riverbank . fire beasts were so fast that even perfect experts had to expend some effort to catch them . If you couldn’t correctly judge the timing in advance, it would be hard to capture a fire beast . But the expression on her face showed that she was confident .
After a while, a fire beast leaped out from the river on the woman’s right side . The woman swung her whip and bound it before pulling it from the Magma river with ease and killing it, grabbing its core .
It seemed that they had an agreement that everyone could only kill one fire beast each time . The old Taoist from Longhu Mountain entwined one with a Buddha duster . The Taoist from Mao mountain killed one with his strong palm . Master Purdue drew one into a Jade bowl . The Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag speared one with his sword energy .
At this point, Mu Yi knew that it had become a performance to show off their strength .
Zai Feng looked at Niu Ben with an expression of disdain . Niu Ben was lucky to get a fire beast core using a long stick and a net .
Now, the only people who hadn’t gone yet were Mu Yi and Qiu Yuetong .
Mu Yi looked at Qiu Yuetong and nodded . She took a deep breath and came to the riverbank . She grasped the hilt of her sword tightly .
When a fire beast eventually leaped out of the Magma River, Qiu Yuetong brandished her sword and killed the fire beast . Then, a thin rope flew out of her hand and pulled the fire beast back .
When Mu Yi readied himself for his turn, a voice suddenly called out .
“Wait . ”
Mu Yi looked around and his face darkened when his eyes landed on Zai Feng .
“What’s wrong?” Mu Yi said .
“You and Qiu Yuetong were in a group, so only one of your groupgets a turn . ” Zai Feng smiled . Actually, no one had agreed on the rule that one group only gets one fire beast core . Zai Feng just wanted to embarrass Mu Yi . No one wanted to get involved so they didn’t lend a hand . After all, if Zai Feng fought with Mu Yi, the others would get more benefits .
The woman from the ancient city of Dunhuang stood there watching events unfold with interest .

Qiu Yuetong tightly gripped the hilt of her sword once more, preparing to help Mu Yi .
“What if I say that I must take a fire beast core?” Mu Yi said slowly .
“Then I will enact justice for the sake of fairness . ” Zai Feng said . At the same time, Fan Yuan took a step forward to force Mu Yi to submit .
However, just when a fight was about to break out, the earth shook . The Magma River tossed up and roiled, attracting everyone’s attention . Any intent to fight was abruptly quenched .
Many fire beasts were jumping out of the river in a panicked state . Everyone took position in preparation to kill the fire beasts .
Mu Yi took a look at Zai Feng and saw that Fan Yuan and another had gone to kill the fire beasts . The old eunuch had left as well .
Mu Yi sighed . Without the old eunuch there, it would have been a good chance to kill Zai Feng . What’s more, it seemed that the woman from the ancient city of Dunhuang planned to gain fire beast core first . But, circumstances being what they were, Mu Yi and Qiu Yuetong could only begin to kill the fire beasts .
As it was, everyone tried their best to fight the fire beasts . Mu Yi called out the Xin lamp which offset the rolling heat he had been feeling .
When the Xin lamp appeared, several people saw it . Fan Yuan was one of them . It seemed that he knew of the artifact . Actually, Mu Yi had wanted to work with Fan Yuan, who intended to enter Yellow River’s ancient road, before .

Mu Yi had guessed the Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag and the woman from the ancient city of Dunhuang would look at him upon bringing out the Xin lamp . But what attracted Mu Yi’s attention the most was the look of deep contemplation that came from the old Taoist .
Despite these looks however, no one came to trouble him . Not even Zai Feng . Because of this, Mu Yi was able to give his all in killing the fire beasts .
Under the control of Mu Yi, two fire dragons flew out and twisted lightly, killing a fire beast and collecting its core .
After killing a fire beast, the lamp oil also increased a little and the Xin lamp showed a strong desire to devour the core .
With a little hesitation, Mu Yi threw the core to the Xin lamp . He knew the core could be exchanged for treasures, but his main purpose was to recover the Xin lamp . As long as the Xin lamp recovered, his strength would greatly increase . For Mu Yi, it was more important to recover the Xin lamp than to exchange the cores for treasures .
After devouring the fire beast core, Mu Yi felt that the fragmentary symbols recovered quickly, but a single fire beast core was not enough . Mu Yi began to speed up, increasing the number of cores he gained . All of them were devoured by the Xin lamp .
After devouring seven cores, the Xin lamp quivered and a fragmentary symbol recovered, increasing the power of the Xin lamp .
Mu Yi continued to kill the fire beasts and recover the Xin lamp . He could feel a strength rising in the Xin lamp . The last fragmentary symbol recovered slowly as it required more energy to fully repair . The Xin lamp devoured more than ten cores, but it still couldn’t completely recover . What’s more, the fire beasts were becoming more and more difficult to kill, which slowed down his efficiency . At the same time, Mu Yi felt something dangerous coming from the deep river .
“Shoot!”

Suddenly, the river burst and a giant fire dragon came out . The Taoist from Mao mountain was the first one to turn and fight . His right hand turned into jade as he fiercely rushed at the fire dragon at full strength .
“Boom!”
His right hand collided against the giant fire dragon . Then a figure flew out . It was the Taoist . He molten shell covering the giant fire dragon and revealed its giant tail .
The Taoist obstructed the huge tail for a bit, but then the tail continued to attack . The old Taoist from Longhu mountain, Fan Yuan, and the Envoy of the White Tiger’s Flag were in range of its attack . They had no choice but to fight back .
The white silks, sword of light, and evil spirits collided with the giant tail at the same time, making the earth tremble once again . Then three figures flew back .
After that, the giant tail continued its arc and smashed the rocks before coming to rest in the magma river .
Seeing this, everyone chose to retreat . The giant tail was so terrifying that the strongest experts there could only barely resist . If the giant tail attacked wildly, no one could stop it .
Mu Yi was upset and cast a regretful look at the fire beasts in the distance . The Xin lamp was close to recovery, but in the current situation, it was impossible to continue gathering their cores . That giant tail had proved to be more powerful than any fire beast .
Suddenly, Qiu Yuetong put something round in Mu Yi’s hand . Mu Yi looked and was stunned for a moment before looking at Qiu Yuetong .
