At the same time, Tie Ta's axe landed on the head of the other Class 9 Xuanhuang beast, but the result was the same as Jianchen's. His powerful attack failed to injure the Xuanhuang beast at all. It did not even break through its skin, only leaving behind a shallow mark.
Tie Ta frowned slightly at this sight. The Xuanhuang beast's defense had also exceeded his expectations, but he did not become dejected at all. He gripped his axe with both hands and raised it high above his head. It shone with a bright golden light as powerful battle intent revolved around him, fusing with the axe in his hand.
"Mysteries of War, Mortal-breaker!" Tie Ta let out a loud cry. His golden axe turned into a beam of golden light as he swung it down with all his might.
This time, Tie Ta had used his Mysteries of War. The attack was far more powerful than the attack from before.
Boom! The golden axe landed on the Xuanhuang beast and produced a heavy boom. Violent streams of energy swept out in all directions as storms of energy, kicking up dust from the ground. Sand and rocks were blown into the air as dust filled the air. Tie Ta and most of the Xuanhuang beast were covered by the yellow dust.
Tie Ta's strength had increased by quite a lot after cultivating in the vortex of energy for three months. He was far more powerful than when he fought against the experts of the Tao family. The Mysteries of War he used this time had even reached the level of the Holy Emperor's Eighth Heavenly Layer. It was even more powerful than Jianchen's.
However, his powerful Mysteries of War failed to break through the Xuanhuang beast's skin. It only left behind a white mark that was slightly larger than before.
Roar! The Class 9 Xuanhuang beast was enraged. It produced a deafening roar as it raised a huge hand and swung it at Tie Ta. The Xuanhuang beast clearly could not accept the fact that an ant-like person was attacking it time and time again. Although it did not possess intelligence, it possessed a sense of superiority due to its great strength. It could not allow any creature weaker than it to touch it.
Because the Xuanhuang beast was just too large, one of its feet was extremely large as well. It was twenty to thirty meters wide, much larger than a regular house.
The Xuanhuang beast's foot moved extremely quickly. Like a huge stamp, it descended from the sky and enveloped the entire region. Tie Ta immediately felt a tremendous pressure from above as he stood beneath the Xuanhuang beast's foot. Although the Class 9 Xuanhuang beast before him did not know any secret techniques, it was still an existence that possessed the power of the Holy Emperor. A casual strike from it possessed extremely great power, and the pressure it created was enough to restrain prey that were far weaker than it.
Tie Ta felt his body become heavier and heavier. His feet had already sunk into the ground, and they continued to sink. Above him, the Xuanhuang beast's huge foot rapidly descended. With every inch the foot descended, the pressure on Tie Ta increased.
It was tremendous.
"Mysteries of War, Celestial Chase!" Tie Ta called out and used the Mysteries of War once again. With a flash of golden light, he suddenly vanished from where he was, appearing on the Xuanhuang beast's back as if he had teleported.
"Mysteries of War, Destruction!" Tie Ta roared at the sky as he bathed in the golden light. His powerful battle intent permeated his surroundings once again, fusing with the axe as an invisible energy. The axe's power greatly increased, and a destructive energy erupted from it, as if it could destroy everything in the world.
Just from the aura, it could be seen that the Art of Annihilation was much more powerful than the Art of Mortalbreaker. One was a pure and powerful attack, while the other had a trace of destructive aura. It was indestructible and there was nothing it could not destroy.
The golden axe struck the Xuanhuang beast's back, creating a two-meter-long crack. Tie Ta's Destruction Arts had actually cut through the Xuanhuang beast's hide. Even though it was only an inch deep, not even a tenth of the Xuanhuang beast's hide, it was still quite shocking.
The Xuanhuang beast began to violently sway in an attempt to throw Tie Ta off its back. Tie Ta grabbed a protruding part of the Xuanhuang beast's back with one hand, keeping himself firmly on the beast's back. He continued to use the Destruction Arts with one hand to cut at the two-meter-long wound, causing it to rapidly deepen. Once he had completely cut through the thick hide, he would be able to harm the Xuanhuang beast.
The Xuanhuang beast immediately roared out in anger when it saw how it could not shake off the ant-like creature on its back no matter what. It constantly slammed its limbs against the ground, creating large holes in the tough earth. Its thick and powerful tail constantly swung at Tie Ta, but Tie Ta would be able to dodge it in time with the Celestial Chase before returning to his original position. He raised his axe and swung it at the rapidly deepening wound on the Xuanhuang beast's back.
One swing …
Two swings …
Three swings …
Tie Ta used the Destruction technique with a single hand, so its power was drastically reduced. However, even with that being the case, the Class 9 Xuanhuang beast was unable to endure Tie Ta's constant attacks. The wound on its back grew deeper and deeper, but there was still no blood. The Xuanhuang beast's skin was extremely thick. Tie Ta had not even cut through half of it.
Right now, Tie Ta was stuck to the Xuanhuang beast's back like a piece of sticky candy. It could not chase him away no matter what. Although the Xuanhuang beast posed no threat to Tie Ta for now, killing it would not be easy because he had not even managed to pierce through its hide.
On the other side, Jianchen used the Illusory Flash to dodge the Xuanhuang beast's attacks. After trembling for a while, Jianchen had already gained a complete understanding of the Xuanhuang beast's attacks. It did not use any tricks, completely relying on the most primitive methods of a wild beast. Although it possessed the strength of a Holy Emperor, it was not even as threatening as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor aside from its thick hide.
Jianchen avoided the Xuanhuang beast's line of sight. He concealed his presence and silently arrived at the Xuanhuang beast's abdomen. He stabbed at the snow-white abdomen as hard as he could.
However, the attack failed to harm the Xuanhuang beast at all. Jianchen felt like he had stabbed into a ball of soft cotton, making him feel like he was unable to use his strength.
The abdomen was the weakest part of many magical beasts. It was a crucial point that connected to the internal organs of the body. Unfortunately, the weakest part of many magical beasts was strengthened the most in the Xuanhuang beasts.
"Looks like I can only attack the eyes, mouth, ears, and nostrils." Jianchen sighed inside. Out of all the battles he had fought in the past few years, this was the first time he felt the most helpless. It was not because his opponent was too powerful.
It was because his opponent's skin was just too thick.
Jianchen emerged from the Xuanhuang beast's abdomen in a flash and stood in front of its head without any disguise. He swung the Emperor Armament in his hand at the ground and immediately, a curved, black sword Qi cut through the soil. It moved through the soil and quickly shot toward the Xuanhuang beast.
Wherever the sword Qi passed, the soil was kicked into the air. Large amounts of sand and dust were kicked into the air, causing the sky to become hazy. Both Jianchen and the Xuanhuang beast's vision was affected in such an environment. They were unable to see ahead at all.
Jianchen closed his eyes and charged into the sand. At a time like this, he could no longer worry about the consumption of the senses of his soul. He enveloped a radius of a thousand meters with his soul as he observed his surroundings. He quickly approached the Xuanhuang beast and carefully concealed his presence, preventing it from sensing his location.
Jianchen arrived twenty meters away from the Xuanhuang beast's head very soon. Suddenly, his speed exploded as he used the Illusory Flash to cross that distance and arrive before the Xuanhuang beast's eyes. Powerful sword intent radiated from his body as the Emperor Armament in his hand shot out a three-meter-long black streak of light. The violent and destructive presence filled the Xuanhuang beast's eyes, causing it to feel a piercing pain.
Jianchen did not give the Xuanhuang beast any time to close its eyes.
The Emperor Armament turned into a black streak of light, stabbing into the Xuanhuang beast's eyeball with lightning-like speed. The Chaotic Force within the Emperor Armament immediately erupted, destroying one of the Xuanhuang beast's eyes in a single instance. At the same time, the remaining energy used the eye as an opening to spread toward the Xuanhuang beast's brain in an attempt to destroy its central nervous system.
The Xuanhuang beast shrieked out in pain. The intense pain caused its huge body to struggle on the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. The dust and sand in the air became denser as well.
It was so dark that it was impossible to see anything.
Jianchen originally wanted to use this opportunity to blind the Xuanhuang beast's other eye, but he could only give up helplessly when he saw how the Xuanhuang beast struggled without any pattern. He retreated.
The Xuanhuang beast's pain was not only because of the loss of its eye, but also because of the tiny strand of Chaotic Force that Jianchen had left in its eye. Wherever the Chaotic Force passed by, the surrounding flesh would be destroyed, and the strand of Chaotic Force would quickly spread toward the center of its brain.
The Xuanhuang beast seemed to sense the threat in its head as well. The energy within it immediately surged out like a flood, rapidly spreading toward its head. It then surrounded the tiny strand of Chaotic Force and slowly destroyed it.
As soon as the sliver of Chaotic Force within the Xuanhuang beast vanished, Jian Chen sensed it. He thought, "These Xuanhuang beasts must have absorbed some Xuanhuang Qi since they grew up in the Xuanhuang Microcosm. Xuanhuang Qi is equivalent to Chaotic Force, so they have enough power to resist it. The threat of my Chaotic Force to the Xuanhuang beasts has decreased by a lot. Only when I use it on Xuanhuang beasts that are weaker than me will I have an even greater advantage."
"My Chaotic Force can't even reach the central nervous system of the Xuanhuang beast before it's destroyed. Looks like with my current strength, I'll be able to break through its weak points.
Even with my current strength, it'll be very difficult to kill a Class 9 Xuanhuang beast. " Jianchen stared at the Xuanhuang beast that was still struggling in pain. The light in his eyes flickered, and he seemed to think of something. A gleam of light flashed through his eyes, and in the next moment, the saint artifact flew out from between his eyebrows. With a wave of his hand, he pulled out an item from the artifact space.
