Chapter 671: Hands Up, Sword Lands!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ku Rong couldn’t help but feel a hint of confusion in his heart. If he couldn’t escape now, wouldn’t that mean death?
Ku Rong’s four ears trembled violently, as the vital energy of heaven and earth gathered. He shifted his body and dashed towards another direction.
Chen Fei’s figure vanished, once again blocking Ku Rong’s path, while his Qianyuan Sword slashed down directly.
The power of the Monster King erupted within Ku Rong’s body. In an impossible moment, he managed to evade Chen Fei’s attack, his body fluttering like a willow catkin as he continued to flee into the distance.
Chen Fei’s expression twitched slightly. Ku Rong’s use of the power of the Monster King far exceeded that of the one Chen Fei encountered in Wind Lake City before.
If Ku Rong fought Chen Fei with this power of the Monster King, Chen Fei would have to temporarily retreat and wait for the dissipation of the Monster King’s power before attempting to kill him again.
But evidently, Ku Rong’s temperament differed greatly from ordinary demons. He preferred to escape rather than contemplate using the power of the Monster King to perish alongside Chen Fei.
Or perhaps, in their first encounter just now, Chen Fei’s displayed strength had somewhat rattled Ku Rong, making him unwilling to face Chen Fei alone.
As Chen Fei shifted his figure, constantly blocking Ku Rong’s path, Ku Rong dodged left and right, narrowly slipping through a gap under Chen Fei’s sword. Compared to attacking with the power of the Monster King, simply using body technique to accelerate allows for much longer duration.
After tangling for a moment, they had already flown over hundreds of miles.
The fear in Ku Rong’s eyes grew heavier and heavier. It had already discerned that this human possessed a talent for teleportation, and controlled it extremely well. There was hardly any interval in short-distance teleportation.
A human with talents exclusive to beasts, and mastering them to such a high degree—this couldn’t just be an old monster’s possession, what else could it be?
Fear and panic surged in Ku Rong’s heart as it sensed the Monster King’s power within it about to dissipate, the fear deepening.
Ku Rong had initially wanted to charge towards those fleets to make Chen Fei wary, but in that direction, Chen Fei was completely on guard, almost striking Ku Rong several times.
Ku Rong could still escape now because it controlled the direction of flight itself.
But once it fixed the direction, its position would become easily predictable.
Ku Rong tried several times, but dared not fly towards the direction of the fleet, instead turning to fly towards other positions.
“Roar!”
A loud roar echoed in the distance, and a look of surprise appeared in Ku Rong’s single eye. There were four peak third-tier beasts ahead.
Though they weren’t descendants of the two Monster Kings, such power was already immensely formidable, surely enough to drive away this human.
No, if they laid out a formation to restrict this human’s talent for teleportation, they might even be able to slay him!
Ku Rong’s four ears trembled violently, and the four peak third-tier beasts in the distance paused for a moment before flying towards them.
When the descendants of the Monster Kings called, they had to obey. In the hierarchy of demon beasts, the status of the Monster King’s descendants far surpassed that of other demon beasts.
This was especially true among peers.
Chen Fei glanced ahead, his brows furrowing slightly. In the next moment, he disappeared and reappeared before the four peak third-tier beasts.
Seeing Chen Fei suddenly appear, the four beasts were momentarily startled, but in the next instant, they instinctively unleashed their attacks towards him.
No matter how many tricks you have, in the face of absolute strength, everything is futile!
A dazzling light radiated from Chen Fei’s brow, and the attacks of the four peak third-tier beasts slowed down under his Heavenly Eye. The flaws in each of their attacks gradually revealed themselves before Chen Fei.
However, these flaws were very minor. Despite the somewhat hasty attacks of the four beasts, their realm was evident.
Many instinctive attacks sometimes turned out to be the best choice. At most, the attacks of the four beasts were just accompanied by some flaws.
A phantom appeared behind Chen Fei, resembling a dragon with scales, six limbs beneath, treading through the void, and with the sun and moon overhead.
A tremendous force suddenly descended, and the four peak third-tier beasts felt their bodies tighten, as if they were about to be sealed directly in the void.
The four beasts instinctively struggled desperately, causing the void to tremble, and they broke free from the restraint.
But it was this momentary pause that made the gap in their attacks towards Chen Fei even larger.
Majestic force circulated within Chen Fei’s body as he swung his sword, colliding with the attack of the first beast.
“Boom!”
The resounding explosion echoed in all directions. Normally, the power possessed by beasts surpassed that of martial artists, but in this direct clash, the body of this beast was forced backward, and its dozen or so tentacles were crushed into a mist of blood.
Intense pain struck, causing the beast to roar loudly.
Chen Fei shifted his figure, dodging the attacks of the other three beasts and flashing behind the first beast. The Qianyuan Sword in his hand continued to slash out.
Compared to the first strike, the momentum of this sword was even stronger now, and much stronger indeed.
He borrowed force, suppressed, refined, and combined his own power into the strike.
This was the technique of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant!
“Boom!”
Chen Fei’s sword struck the head of the beast, causing its body to tremble. Before it could even recover from the first collision, it exploded into a shower of blood the next moment.
Two strikes, slaying a peak third-tier beast.
In the blink of an eye, while the attacks of the other three beasts were still crossing the void and landing on the sea with a deafening roar, one of their companions had already fallen.
The efficiency of this slaughter left the three beasts somewhat dazed, wondering if they had encountered a human at the level of the Mountain Sea Realm.
In the distance, Ku Rong, who had been charging towards them, saw this scene, and its eye widened almost to the point of popping out of its abdomen.
Watching Chen Fei’s slaughter from the sidelines was just as shocking as facing him head-on earlier for Ku Rong.
This human had almost fully utilized all the power at his disposal, and although he lacked the power of the Mountain Sea Realm, for the other peak third-tier beasts, the difference seemed insignificant.
It was death either way!
Even facing a human at the Mountain Sea Realm, they might not die, they still have a chance to survive.
Because as soon as they see a figure of that realm, they scatter and flee, not eagerly charging forward like now, seeking a fight.
Doubt flickered in Ku Rong’s single eye. At this moment, the distance to that side was less than twenty li. Though it wouldn’t take just an instant to cover this distance, it wouldn’t require much time either.
Although one peak third-tier beast had died now, there were still at least three left, plus Ku Rong itself. While it might not be able to slay Chen Fei, it should be able to protect itself.
After hesitating for a moment, Ku Rong decided to join the remaining three beasts to confront Chen Fei together.
But before Ku Rong could fly out a few li, the vital energy of heaven and earth in the distance trembled violently. Watching the scene over there, Ku Rong felt a surreal sense of entering a illusion.
The human on the other side directly broke through the defenses of the remaining three peak third-tier beasts with a single sword strike, then followed it up with another strike, killing one of the beasts that couldn’t react in time.
After losing one companion, the remaining three beasts understood the terror of the human before them and immediately shifted from attacking to complete defense.
While it could be argued that their previous attacks on Chen Fei appeared rushed due to his sudden appearance, now, with their minds tightly focused on defense, there was no question of whether their actions were rushed or not.
Yet even so, the defenses of the three beasts were still broken by the human’s single sword strike.
Several li away, Chen Fei’s body was surrounded by blood energy.
Extracting the essence of the first beast as power, Chen Fei catalyzed it, unleashing the most explosive strike.
The essence of a peak third-tier beast was unimaginably profound and incredibly rare. Yet Chen Fei directly used this essence as power for his strike.
This was undoubtedly an extremely wasteful move, squandering precious resources, to put it lightly.
However, the power of this strike was so incredible that it shattered the full defenses of three beasts in one move.
The chaotic and explosive power flowed within Chen Fei’s body. Blood beads oozed from his skin, and every organ, bone, muscle emitted a tearing sound.
The essence was too chaotic, and striking like this placed an immense burden on the body. No peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm expert dared to attempt such a move; it was likely that before the technique was halfway executed, their body would have already ruptured.
Even the beasts renowned for their robust physique dared not do such a thing. “Roar!”
The phantom of the dragon-elephant behind Chen Fei roared to the sky, its ivory horns soaring into the clouds as if to pierce through the firmament.
Chen Fei’s gaze shifted towards the other two peak third-tier beasts.
The bodies of the two beasts trembled violently, a chill running through them. Glancing towards Ku Rong again, they saw that Ku Rong had already changed direction, fleeing directly towards another direction.
The hearts of the two peak third-tier beasts sank instantly—they had been abandoned!
In less than a moment, with several deafening roars, the remaining two peak third-tier beasts were forcefully slain by Chen Fei.
The two beasts had thought of escape, but if even Ku Rong couldn’t flee, how could these beasts without special talents or the power of a Monster King escape Chen Fei’s pursuit?
Chen Fei stood in mid-air, the thick blood mist almost completely enveloping him. The remaining essence of the four peak third-tier beasts was thrown into the Concealment bell by Chen Fei.
With a sweep of his right hand, Chen Fei severed the bodies of the four beasts and erased their lingering aura. Then, with two consecutive flashes, he chased after Ku Rong.
The four beasts died too quickly, and Ku Rong had only just fled less than a hundred miles.
Using normal body technique to chase, this distance would have been nearly impossible to catch up to, but Chen Fei possessed the talent of teleportation, instantly erasing this distance.
Ku Rong stared with wide eyes at Chen Fei, his gaze filled with despair.
Just now, the Monster King’s power within Ku Rong had already been depleted, and controlling that power had severely drained Ku Rong’s mental energy.
As for the injuries inflicted by Chen Fei just now, they had been healed by the Monster King’s power.
But facing the unreasonable power of the human before him, Ku Rong didn’t know what he could use to resist.
Clearly, he had chosen to hunt in the open sea, which could be said to be extremely cautious, yet he still encountered such a situation.
Ku Rong was unwilling!
“Clang!”
Amidst the earth-shattering sword cry, Ku Rong’s field of vision was filled with only a blade slashing through the void, piercing towards him.
An hour later, Chen Fei dragged Ku Rong’s body to a deserted island..
