Chapter 586: Subduction? (I)
Caught in a large explosion, Long Haochen was violently shaken and couldn’t keep chasing. On the two sides, Wang Yuanyuan and Sima Xian were long since done dealing with the previous gorillas, but also sustained terrible after effects which stopped their advancing progress.
The three of them gasped at the same time, and as shock appeared in their eyes, they also became even more serious.
The deep purple radiance on Chen Hongyu’s body already disappeared after making its appearance. As that deep purple radiance was dispersing, the head of the Spiritual Temple was standing on a deep purple illumination.
That wasn’t a form of energy, but a tyrannical magical beast. The appearance of this magical beast alone shook the whole Fighting Beast Field.
This magical beast was extended over more than forty meters, its huge wings unfolded on its back. On its whole body were deep purple scales, and its slender, majestic figure let out an extremely tyrannical dragon might. From its neck came out four heads, all of which were dragon heads.
Every dragon head had different colored eyes of green, red, yellow and blue color.
Looking at this magical beast, Long Haochen couldn’t help but have a very queer feeling. Wasn’t this magical beast a bit like an enlarged version of Haoyue? It’s just that it only had four heads, but its atmosphere and cultivation were far above Haoyue’s. This was without a doubt a magical beast of the tenth step, and one controlling four different elements.
That was the contracted beast of the Spiritual Temple’s head, a four-headed chimera.
Chimeras are a kind of dragon, which can be called sub-dragons. But that’s for the two-headed ones. If they can get their third head, they will be as strong as a real gigantic dragon. And a four-headed chimera is a magical beast of the antique type, surely an existence of the tenth rank, and standing on the peak of this tenth rank.
Of course, four-headed chimeras wield totally different elements. The same went for this four-headed chimera of Chen Hongyu’s. Its four heads may not be peak masters in their own elements, but never forget that the four elements produce cumulative effects. Although the holy light element which is the greatest nemesis of darkness wasn’t present, there was no need to doubt this four-headed chimera’s power. And it had a pleasant name to hear, Xingxuan.
Chen Ying’er explained in advance the power of her grandfather’s four-headed chimera. Among all known magical beasts of the tenth rank in history, Chen Hongyu’s four-headed chimera was absolutely in the top ten, far more powerful than the Forest Boa King Long Haochen’s group encountered.
Even the Saw Skate King couldn’t rival it in terms of total strength.
Seated on his four-headed chimera, Chen Hongyu had a clear, unsightly complexion. He didn’t expect Long Haochen’s bunch to compel him into fielding his contracted beast in such a short time.
This loss of face naturally had to be retrieved. As he proceeded with a muffled chant, the four-headed chimera launched a blunt offense towards Long Haochen’s group.
Its immense tail swept across the land like a like a tsunami, aiming straight at Wang Yuanyuan and Sima Xian. That imposing power and force immediately horrified the three.
Simultaneously flapping their spiritual wings, the three of them flew without hesitation. Meet it head on? Don’t dream, even Sima Xian, who’s the most confident in his strength, wouldn’t commit such a foolish act! That’s a magical beast of the tenth rank which can eat whole bodies in a mouthful. That tail was about twenty meters long, with bulges growing all over and a sharp end point. One who would be swept by it would at least have his whole skin shred if not die.
At this time, the battle already entered an intensified point. Right as Long Haochen’s group of three rose up, the four-headed chimera’s four heads let out their simultaneous breaths, shot like hurricanes of four different elements engulfing the three of them. The terrible fluctuations of spiritual energy directly shook the whole Fighting Beasts Ground.
This wasn’t the first time for Long Haochen to be confronting a powerhouse of the ninth step. Facing such a situation, he didn’t show the slightest timidity, and once in midair, didn’t draw back, but, flapping his four wings, launched another Instant Burst Crosscut.
In an ear-piercing lacerating sound, that deep blue color appeared once again in the sky, unexpectedly forcibly tearing the four colored breaths of the chimera.
Wang Yuanyuan and Sima Xian took the advantage earlier to place themselves behind Long Haochen’s back, and drew back very rapidly. Long Haochen was left alone in front of the threat.
In a flash of golden light, Yating appeared that time behind Long Haochen’s back, and immediately, a gloss of whitish gold landed on the incantating Chen Hongyu.
Chen Hongyu felt an immense pulling force reach out abruptly. Even his spiritual energy’s cultivation was unable to stabilize his body, which was directly heading towards Long Haochen.
That was Pull, the enhanced version. Once before, even the Lich King ate a severe loss. The attack he just launched was at full force, not sparing any cost of spiritual energy. Aside from the importance of seizing the initiative, it was also important that he close with Hongyu. His evolved Pull ability was simply of too great use against mages. They have a weak body, so if they are at close range...heehee. And don’t forget that Chen Hongyu promised not to use any weapon or equipment.
As expected, Chen Hongyu was greatly started by the Pull ability hitting, but the next one to suffer a loss wasn’t him but Long Haochen.
In a fierce collision of spiritual energy, Long Haochen was repelled and his dark green and reddish gold two-toned radiances only left two trails on the sky.
As expected, Long Haochen’s Pull ability indeed landed, but don’t forget that he still had his contracted beast at his side.
A contracted beast which was able to rise to the tenth rank of cultivation is not simply an aide in battle. Seeing Chen Hongyu about to enter Long Haochen’s attacking range, that huge chimera immediately glinted in purple color along with Chen Hongyu’s body. The next instant, a drizzling purple gloss appeared on Chen Hongyu’s body. When it clashed against Long Haochen, his body was sent flying over more than a hundred meters distance, which naturally stopped the effects of the ability Pull. The four-headed chimera bluntly spit another breath, but this time, the four colored breaths made one, turning into a tyrannical elemental storm rushing toward Long Haochen’s group. That was the full strike blow from a magical beast of the tenth rank.
“Gather!” Although Long Haochen was repelled, he hadn’t sustained any serious injury. Right after his shout, the others were already done gathering, and this time, a multicolored golden light spread out from the front of Long Haochen’s body.
The divine-tool-class Divine Snail Shield used the combination of Shield Wall and Divine Obstruction.
Bang!
An extremely violent explosion was discharged in the Beast Fighting Ground, and the surrounding walls shook intensely. All the defensive formations on the upper walls activated simultaneously as the terrifying fluctuations of spiritual energy reached the ultimate peak this time.
Chen Hongyu’s back was still dripping with cold sweat. The previous move was really close. If the four-headed chimera hadn’t responded so promptly, he would really have been pulled into Long Haochen’s attacking range. Although he’s a powerhouse of the ninth step, he’s still a mage! If Long Haochen’s sword strike had landed on him, he couldn’t have borne the damage. The terrifying sword intent accumulated into Long Haochen’s two swords was something he could feel deeply.
How could he use such a powerful pulling ability? Chen Hongyu was still gasping a bit for breath. The look he had became extremely vigilant, from this point onwards, he won’t look down on these seven opponents anymore. From the looks of it, Long Haochen’s group seemed to have suffered a loss, but in actual fact, Chen Hongyu wasn’t much better. Under the protection of the four-headed medusa, he was confident in suffering no attacks from Long Haochen’s group, so he went all out in his incantation. But Long Haochen’s Pull suddenly interrupted that incantation, causing a hard-to-bear magic backlash. If not for his high level of cultivation, he would have just been spitting blood.
The thin radiances were on the move in the sky, but the elemental storm could only pass through the two sides of the Divine Snail Shield. This kind of large area attack was the most inefficient against the Divine Snail Shield. Although Long Haochen’s spiritual energy was still depleted at a frantic speed, his group remained as safe as houses on the same ground.
Right at this time, Chen Ying’er’s incantation was terminated.
To a global deep shock, gates filled with immense life force emerged from Chen Ying’er’s back, forming a large row. The instant this magic completed, these gates of light formed another row in the Fighting Beast Ground. A total of eighteen gates had appeared in front of Chen Hongyu.
That’s Creature Summoning Gates? Chen Hongyu and Sanshui Popo on the viewing platform both became dumbstruck.
As powerful summoners, they were naturally able to use the Creature Summoning Gate. And with Chen Hongyu’s cultivation, he’s able to use simultaneously six of these Creature Summoning Gates to summon tides of beasts against the demons.
At the time of Chen Ying’er’s awakening as the Spiritual Saint Girl, although her cultivation was far from sufficient, this Creature Summoning Gate she could wield since she was young also evolved, enabling her to simultaneously wield six of them. But how could there appear eighteen of them? In all the records of the Spiritual Temple, there had never been a summoner able to display the terrifying sight of eighteen Creature Summoning Gates.
After completing her magic, Chen Ying’er visibly became extremely tired. Sitting cross-legged at her original location, she murmured some words. Then, the hundred and eight spiritual pellets on her Spiritual Saint Robe lit immediately, supplying back her previous consumption.
The greatest use of the Spiritual Saint Robe was as a supply of spiritual energy. In terms of efficiency, it was far beyond compare with Long Haochen’s Golden Foundation Armor.
Every spiritual pellet had a supply of 10,000 spiritual energy. In other words, Chen Ying’er’s Spiritual Saint Robe could supply 1,800,000 units of spiritual energy. But of course, this had limitations as well: no matter the massive supply of spiritual energy, she was only able to simultaneously wield the amount of her total cultivation.
