Chapter 694: The Pinnacle Beast King
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The White Bear Beast King’s eyes opened wide in bewilderment. It stared at the fuchsia bird as it flew towards it, unable to do anything.
Rumble!
The fuchsia bird released an unparalleled power, blasting the White Bear Beast King and sending it flying backward. The power swept past and everywhere it reached, all living creatures were killed. All plants within the diameter of a thousand meters were wiped out.
A hole the size of a washbasin appeared on the chest of the White Bear Beast King. The wound penetrated through its body and blood splashed everywhere. All its internal organs dropped out.
Mo Wen’s figure flashed and he appeared in front of the White Bear Beast King. The light of the Sacred Fire Sword flashed and the gigantic head of the White Bear Beast King fell to the ground with a thud.
Everything happened within an instant. From the moment Mo Wen took aim at his target, to him attacking and successfully killing it, had happened within the time it took to draw a few breaths.
The other Beast Kings responded. Their attacks all seemed to arrive at the same time smashing into Mo Wen.
Mo Wen had gone all out to kill the White Bear Beast King and did not have any remaining strength to dodge the attacks from the other Beast Kings.
In an instant, attacks from four Beast Kings landed on Mo Wen’s body. Even though his Indestructible Body of Vajrapani was powerful and his physical body was tough, he could not possibly withstand them.
A huge hole appeared in Mo Wen’s chest. His legs were also completely gone. Out of his four limbs, he was only left with the arm which was holding the Sacred Fire Sword. He looked pathetic, with no strength to recover.
However, the top-grade Healing Light, which Mo Wen had prepared earlier, flew out of his sleeve. It released streaks of brilliant red light, enveloping Mo Wen.
A bizarre scene occurred. Light shrouds coalesced in the places where Mo Wen’s legs and arm should be. The lights gradually took shape and Mo Wen’s limbs slowly regrew. The wound on his chest was also healing with a speed that the naked eye could follow.
After a moment, Mo Wen had recovered all his limbs and the huge wound in his chest had disappeared. His terrifying injuries had almost completely healed.
Mo Wen’s face was red. The effect of the top-grade Healing Light was remarkable. It was akin to those legendary panaceas.
Another wave of attacks came sweeping towards him. Mo Wen’s body distorted and disappeared from his original spot, dodging the attacks in the nick of time.
In the woods, starlight appeared. Then, the starlight increased and gushed towards Mo Wen.
As expected, the White Bear Beast King was completely dead. Mo Wen had successfully killed it.
A blue top-grade Recovery Light appeared in front of Mo Wen. This time, killing a Beast King had only yielded a top-grade light tool. Moreover, it was a Recovery Light instead of a Healing Light. Mo Wen was slightly disappointed.
What he needed the most right now was a top-grade Healing Light. However, getting a Recovery Light was better than nothing. He still had four top-grade Healing Lights in his hands. They should be enough.
Starlight streamed continuously into Mo Wen’s body. He felt that his cultivation was increasing at a terrifying speed, like a rising tide.
After a short while, his body emitted a quiet clicking sound. The next moment, the Inner Qi in his body circulated frenziedly. The Inner Qi circulated in the large vital energy circle and the small vital energy circle continuously, coalescing more and more Inner Qi.
Later stage Golden Elixir Realm!
Mo Wen could sense that right now, the Inner Qi in his body had reached a rather formidable stage.
When he reached later stage Golden Elixir realm cultivation, in terms of the richness of Inner Qi, his would definitely far surpass that of common pinnacle of Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioners. His Inner Qi would be infinitesimally closer to that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
In terms of cultivation, right now, Mo Wen’s power was most comparable to that of Nangong Mingzhu, who was ranked number one on the Leaderboard of strongest practitioners. His cultivation right now might even surpass hers.
At this moment, Mo Wen could be considered halfway towards becoming a Martial Arts Grandmaster strong practitioner. If he could advance one more step, reaching the pinnacle of Golden Elixir Realm, Mo Wen estimated that his Inner Qi cultivation would be higher than that of a common Martial Arts Grandmaster.
Flashes of power emanated from Mo Wen’s body. Even his vigor was different. His body twitched and without a sound or trace, he was able to dodge the attacks of the Beast Kings, one after another.
His body transformed into a gust of wind and easily escaped the siege of the Beast Kings. Right now, his cultivation was equivalent to that of half a Beast King. Even if ten Beast Kings surrounded and attacked him at the same time, they would most likely not pose a threat to Mo Wen if he was set on escaping.
Right after Mo Wen escaped the attack of the pack of Beast Kings, another group of Beast Kings surrounded him. Such was the situation in a Beast Wave. Everywhere he turned, there were Beast Kings around.
He took some time to look at the Light of Life in the sky. He discovered that in just a short while, another Light of Life had been extinguished.
Right now, there was still a long way to go to the end of the task. It was difficult to say whether there would be anyone alive at the end.
Mo Wen kept escaping the attacks of the Beast Kings on the Island. Wherever he went, from the forests to the lakes, and from the lakes to the desert, he was able to get away.
Just like that, half an hour passed. Mo Wen’s face portrayed a deep look of weariness. His nerves had been on edge for such a long time that even he could barely take it. If it wasn’t for the fact that he had accumulated enough Healing Lights and Recovery Lights, he would most likely be unable to withstand the pressure, even with his current cultivation.
What surprised him was that in the sky above, there still remained three Lights of Life. That meant that there were still two other human ancient martial art practitioners who had also endured for half an hour. Who were they?
Mo Wen immediately thought of two people: Nangong Mingzhu and Chu Yuan. The two of them came from special backgrounds, and they were also immortal cultivators. Their chances of survival were much greater than those of average ancient martial art practitioners. Also, they certainly had extraordinary treasures on them. The chances of them being able to last until now were very high.
Roar! Roar!
In the sky above, an astonishing beast roar suddenly sounded.
A terrifying aura that covered heaven and earth swept down from the sky above. Mo Wen’s figure froze as he looked at the sky with a pale expression.
A huge creature had appeared in the sky above. It was more than seventy meters long and had a pair of wings like dark clouds. With a slight flap from its wings, it stirred up a gale.
It was a flying monster with black scales and a dragon’s head.
“Wyvern.”
Mo Wen pouted. There were many kinds of Dragon Clan monstrous beasts. Aside from the Earth Dragons, Flying Dragons were also a major part of the Dragon Clan.
Flying Dragons had a pair of wings and a head similar to that of the Earth Dragons. They were similar to the Scaled Dragon Clan but were not Scaled Dragons.
The huge black scaled creature in the sky was not a true Flying Dragon, but instead had the bloodline of Flying Dragons. It was known as a Wyvern.
The Wyvern’s cultivation shocked Mo Wen. It was a top-ranked beast king, almost reaching the pinnacle realm of Beast Kings. If it was a human ancient martial art practitioner, it would be a Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm Realm of Wisdom absolute strong practitioner.
The black Wyvern remained in the sky. A pair of crimson eyes stared coldly at Mo Wen.
Once the Wyvern appeared, the surrounding Beast King pack immediately ceased attacking. They gradually retreated, showing reverence to this Wyvern.
Mo Wen’s mouth was dry. What sort of luck did he have to encounter such a terrifying Beast King?
The fact that there were only Beast Kings on Beast King Island was a ridiculous arrangement. Now, an incredibly powerful Beast King had appeared. The Tower Spirit didn’t want the human ancient martial art practitioners to complete the task, did it?
Roar!
The Wyvern suddenly opened its mouth. A beam of black light shot out, surging downwards like a black waterfall descending from the sky. The black light contained a terrifying power without equal within.
Mo Wen was as white as a sheet. He had no intention of resisting the attack. He activated the Glory of Wind to its limit. With a twist, his figure appeared a hundred meters away.
The black light descended from the sky, sweeping down on the ground. It did not make a sound, but Mo Wen saw that a deep trench had appeared at the place the light had landed. It was tens of meters deep and hundreds of meters long and wide.
“What sort of thing is that? Is it Dragon Breath?”
Mo Wen felt a chill down his spine. The attack power of the black light could instantly kill even a Beast King.
The legendary Dragon Breath was rather frightening. This beam of black light was similar to Dragon Breath. However, it should have been impossible for the Wyvern to unleash it. Only pure bloodline members of the Dragon Clan could master the power of Dragon Breath.
Of course, if the Wyvern had Sky Dragon or Divine Dragon bloodline, it would be possible for it to master the power of the Dragon Breath, but that seemed unlikely.
Mo Wen did not hesitate at all, turning to flee. Going against such a terrifying Beast King would certainly lead to his death.
“Where are you going?” The black Wyvern’s crimson eyes stared at Mo Wen. Seeing that Mo Wen wanted to escape, it spoke calmly. Then, spreading out its wings, it became a flash of black light, furiously chasing after Mo Wen.
Although the Wyvern’s figure was huge, its speed was astonishing beyond compare. It was even faster than Mo Wen.
Mo Wen cried out bitterly inside. This was a really bad day for him. Being marked by such a creature was terrifying. He suspected that this Wyvern was one of the most powerful Beast Kings on the Island.
After a short while, Mo Wen’s despair increased. He realized that he had no chance of escaping the Wyvern.
“You won’t escape.”
The Wyvern chased Mo Wen casually. It was like a cat toying with a mouse and was in no rush to make a move.
Once the Wyvern locked on to Mo Wen, the other Beast Kings did not dare to attack Mo Wen. However, Mo Wen would rather have been surrounded by a pack of Beast Kings than be targeted by one powerful Beast King.
Just as Mo Wen felt that he had run out of options, a unique wave suddenly came from ahead of him. It seemed as though something was flying over to him at a high speed. There was a strange expression on Mo Wen’s face.
The Wyvern in the sky also tilted its head slightly. Its crimson eyes looked towards the nearby dense forest.
In a short while, a light flashed in the dense forest ahead of Mo Wen. The silhouette of a person emerged. The person was dressed in black robes which enveloped his entire figure, It was as if he did not want to be seen.
This person was none other than the leader of the Ghost Lair, Chu Yuan.
Mo Wen had a strange look because Chu Yuan, the ignorant fool, had voluntarily come to seek death.
“Mo Wen.”
Once Chu Yuan flew out from the dense forest, he immediately noticed Mo Wen. His face turned sullen in an instant. A sinister look flashed in his eyes. Before this, Mo Wen was already on his list of people he must kill. In fact, he was certainly ranked among the top three.
