Deathly silence.
Everyone stared blankly at the sky.
"Why is the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast … listening to Zhang Shi's words?"
Luo Xuanqing's lips twitched as he snapped out of his daze.
He had seen this massive fellow from afar the first time he came here, and it was known to be incredibly ferocious. Even some Saint 8-dan experts would find it difficult to deal with it …
His initial plan was to use the Soulbinding Golden Bead to knock out the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast before sneaking into the cavern to search for the Dongxu Gourd. Who could have thought that Zhang Chun would appear instead?
Thus, he decided to go according to his original plan.
Before he could complete his plan, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast suddenly flew over, and from the looks of it, it didn't seem to be resisting Zhang Xuan's words at all!
Luo Xuanqing hurriedly turned his gaze to Yuan Xiao, only to see the others looking at him in bewilderment.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on either!"
Under the gazes of the crowd, Yuan Xiao looked as if he was on the verge of tears. He spread his arms apart, and the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably. "I entered the cavern to look for that fellow, intending to provoke it, but I didn't find anything at all. As soon as I came out, I saw it licking Zhang shi's pants … I didn't see what was going on!"
"Licking his pants?"
Luo Xuanqing's eyebrows shot up. "Could it be that … Zhang Shi has already tamed the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast?"
"Isn't that obvious? It's obvious! "
Yuan Xiao nodded.
"But …"
Luo Xuanqing still found it hard to believe. "It has only been twenty minutes, and a Leaving Aperture realm pinnacle cultivator managed to tame a Dimension Sundering realm saint beast?"
Setting up a formation, forging a pill, and curing a poison could be done quickly … but taming a beast required the accumulation of emotions and emotions. To make a saint beast submit to one's will … Are you sure you aren't joking?
Not even a Nine Star beast tamer would be capable of such a feat!
"Before meeting this fellow, do you believe that it's possible to set up an 8-star formation faster than activating a formation plate?"
Knowing that Luo Xuanqing was doubtful, Yuan Xiao asked.
"This …" Luo Xuanqing shook his head.
As a genius of the Luo Clan, he had seen many formidable formation masters, and he had even met more than one Nine Star master teacher, but even they couldn't set up formations as quickly as him!
Even his talented younger sister couldn't match up to him in terms of speed.
"Would you believe that someone would be completely fine after being bitten by the Crimson Tail Wasp King, and instead, the latter would be poisoned to death?"
Yuan Xiao then asked, "Do you believe that when someone transcends the lightning tribulation, they can scare away the lightning tribulation and never come back?"
Luo Xuanqing was rendered speechless.
All along, he had thought that he was a genius who was on par with his younger sister, and he had looked down on the heroes of the world. However, upon seeing this fellow, he realized that he was still a far cry from the other party.
They could not be mentioned in the same breath.
"Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, we made an agreement just now. What are you doing?"
While they were conversing in hushed tones, Zhang Chun, who had smashed a huge hole in the wall, flew out once more with a furious look on his face.
Obviously, he did not expect that this guy would suddenly change his mind.
"The agreement just now is invalid. My master told me to beat you up … Be good, don't resist!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast rolled its eyes and lashed out with its tail once more.
Previously, this fellow had promised him an extremely precious treasure. However, now that it had recognized him as its master, there was no way it would do anything that went against its master's words.
Ka-cha!
As a Dimension Sundering realm expert, the surrounding space seemed to have frozen in place. Zhang Chun was forced to retreat several steps before he was struck once more, crashing into the wall once more.
This time around, he was in an even more miserable state than before. His internal organs were displaced, and several of his bones were fractured. Before he could even climb out, fresh blood was already spurting from his mouth, and his face had already turned pale.
"You … have acknowledged this fellow as your master?"
Zhang Chun swallowed a pill and recovered a little. Crawling out of the hole, he gritted his teeth so hard that they nearly shattered.
In order to tame this huge fellow, he had prepared many things, and he had thought that he would be able to tame it easily. Yet, who could have thought that in just a few minutes, the saint beast would actually be tamed by someone else, and it was even pummeling him?
"How dare you insult my master? You are courting death!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast narrowed its eyes as it swept its tail over once more.
This attack was far more powerful than the previous two. As soon as it appeared, the space in the valley was on the verge of shattering. A pitch-black rift appeared right before Zhang Chun, threatening to tear him into shreds.
Knowing that it was impossible for him to withstand this attack with his current strength, Zhang Chun gritted his teeth and took out a jade token. He crushed it forcefully.
Weng!
A ripple appeared in the air, forming a barrier before Zhang Xuan. As soon as the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's attack landed on it, it disappeared without a trace.
"Grand Cosmos Amulet! How extravagant! "
Yuan Xiao exclaimed.
"Grand Cosmos Amulet?" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
"It's a protective amulet that only a Nine Star master teacher is capable of forging. Once activated, as long as one's cultivation is below Saint 9-dan, one will be able to withstand the attack easily!"
Yuan Xiao explained. "As expected of a genius from the Zhang clan, to think that they would even have such an artifact!"
Zhang Xuan was astonished.
Just from the fact that the amulet was able to withstand an attack below Saint 9-dan, it was clear that it was a valuable artifact. However, he did not think that it would be forged by a Nine Star master teacher!
"Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, don't think that I'm afraid of you! You might be powerful, but it won't be that easy for you to kill me!"
Seeing that the amulet had blocked the attack, Zhang Chun heaved a sigh of relief.
He had paid a heavy price in order to obtain this amulet, and it could be said to be the most valuable treasure he had on him. It was meant to be used to protect his life, but who could have thought that he would have to use it here?
Paying no heed to Zhang Chun's rage, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast continued lashing its tail forward, causing ripples in the air.
"You won't be able to shatter the amulet like that!"
Seeing that the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was attacking with brute force, Zhang Xuan shook his head and said, "Attack according to what I said. Focus your strength on your tail and stab at the intersection three chi below the ripples …"
"Yes!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast nodded before gathering all of its strength on its tail. Then, it aimed its tail at a certain point and stabbed it forward.
Kacha!
The sound of fabric ripping echoed in the air. As if a balloon being punctured by a needle, a massive crack appeared on the ripples in the air, and it began to split apart.
Pu!
Unable to withstand the might of the amulet, Zhang Chun's chest caved in, and he was sent flying once more. While he was still in midair, fresh blood spurted from his mouth.
"This …"
This time, it wasn't just Luo Xuanqing and the others who were shocked speechless. Even Zhang Chun and the others who had come with him widened their eyes in shock, as if they had seen a ghost.
They had been invited here to tame the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, so they knew how difficult it was to succeed. Yet, not only did the young man manage to tame the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast in less than twenty minutes, he was even able to see through the flaws of the Grand Cosmos Amulet with a single glance …
While an amulet could withstand an attack, it wasn't a perfect defense. After all, no matter how powerful an artifact was, it was still an external source of power. It wasn't the work of a true Nine Star master teacher …
However, an artifact forged by a Nine Star master teacher would be able to conceal its flaws to the extent that even those of the same cultivation realm wouldn't be able to see through it. How in the world did the young man see through it with a single glance?
"Who in the world are you? This is a grudge between me and Luo Xuanqing. Do you know what kind of price you'll have to pay for standing up for him? "
Zhang Chun roared furiously as he flew out from the cliff once more. Blood trickled down the corner of his lips.
Taming the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was a competition between him and Luo Xuanqing in the first place, and Luo Xuanqing was only invited here by the latter to help him. Why should he offend him and the Zhang Clan for Luo Xuanqing's sake?
"The price I'll have to pay? Of course I do! "
Zhang Xuan nodded before snapping his fingers once more. "Continue pummeling him! Beat him up until he can't speak anymore! "
"Yes!"
The massive head of the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast nodded. With a leap, it appeared right before Zhang Chun and swiped its sharp claws toward him.
Previously, it had only used its tail, not even its claws. However, this time around, its strength was enhanced significantly.
"You …"
Zhang Chun didn't think that the other party would be so obstinate. Even after he had said so, he still chose to make a move on him. Zhang Chun was so furious that he could spurt blood. With a flick of his wrist, he whipped out a sword and thrust it toward the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast.
His swordsmanship was completely different from the Sword Quintessence that Zhang Xuan had comprehended. It was simple, and there was nothing extravagant about it. Yet, it felt heavy and heavy. As soon as it appeared, it felt as if a comet was descending from the heavens, an unstoppable force to be reckoned with.
"Not bad. Not bad at all!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in approval.
The sword that the other party was wielding was a weapon that was on par with the Lingxu Sword. At the very least, it was a Saint high-tier artifact. On top of that, the other party's comprehension of swordsmanship seemed to be much deeper than Shui Qianrou's, reaching Half-Quintessence at the very least.
It was no wonder why he was able to fight to a draw with his brother-in-law, Luo Xuanqing.
However, as formidable as the other party's strength was, it was still nothing before the Saint 8-dan Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast.
Paying no heed to the sword qi in the air, the claw continued its advance.
Weng!
The sword qi dissipated into nothingness. Weng! Zhang Chun was sent flying into the cliff face. Blood spurted from his mouth once more. Eight of his ribs had been fractured, and his body was drenched in blood.
"Let's attack together! Help me stop it!"
Knowing that there was a good chance that he would lose his life here at this rate, Zhang Chun bellowed.
"Alright!"
The four young men who had come with him swiftly leaped into the air.
The four of them were around the same level as Yuan Xiao and the others, Saint 7-dan. If they were to work together, they would be able to put up a fight against the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast.
Hu!
With the combined might of the five experts, they swiftly gathered their zhenqi together to form a rope-like beam of light that fell toward the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's head.
"Zhenqi Rope? They really came prepared! "
Bi Hongyin harrumphed coldly upon seeing the ropes formed from the zhenqi of the crowd.
"What's a Zhenqi Rope?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"It's a method commonly used by high-tier beast tamers. They gather the strength of many people and form a rope using their zhenqi. Once caught, even a Saint 8-dan beast would find it hard to escape!"
Bi Hongyin said. "There are many high-tier beast tamers who use such a method to capture saint beasts and bring them back. After which, they find a way to tame them!"
Hula!
As they spoke, the Zhenqi Rope formed by the five experts fell on the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's head.
With a furious roar, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast raised its claws and tore them apart.
Peng!
The Zhenqi Rope exploded, and the five experts felt a stifling sensation in their chests. It was as if they had been struck by a massive hammer, and they plummeted from the sky.
Even with the five of them working together, they were still no match for the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast!
