Hu!
With a light pinch, the Inferno Qilin caught the pill in its palm. It lowered its head to take a look, and its bewilderment deepened.
The pill looked no different from an ordinary Strength Accretion Pill. There was nothing special about it at all. Even though it harnessed sufficient spiritual energy, it was still useless to a massive beast like the Inferno Qilin. Help it achieve a breakthrough?
You must be joking!
Seeing the bizarre look on the Inferno Qilin's face, Zhang Xuan continued, "You'll be able to achieve a breakthrough after consuming it. There's no need to hesitate anymore. This is a rare opportunity!"
"I won't eat a pill of unknown origin. Who knows whether it's poisoned or not?"
The Inferno Qilin Beast tossed the pill back to Zhang Xuan.
It was not that it did not trust the other party, but even the Zhang family was unable to help it achieve a breakthrough. How could a twenty-year-old fellow be more formidable than them?
Besides, it had taken a closer look at the pill, and other than the slightly purer spiritual energy in it, there was nothing special about it. It would be a tragedy if it was poisoned.
"Poison?"
Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in indignation. "You dare to doubt my sincerity? I am only a Grand Dominion realm cultivator! Do you think that I would be able to poison you to death? Besides, what do I stand to gain from poisoning you to death? "
The Inferno Qilin fell silent.
It was true that the other party did not have the strength to poison it.
However, humans had always been despicable. In any case, it would not take the initiative to eat the other party's food.
"Since you don't believe me, I'll prove it to you!"
Seeing how the Inferno Qilin was looking as though it would go back to sleep at any moment, Zhang Xuan harrumphed coldly before flicking his wrist.
Hu la!
A massive Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast appeared before him.
"Master!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast nodded.
"Swallow this pill. I'll help you achieve a breakthrough!"
With a flick of his finger, the pill flew toward the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast.
"Yes!" The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast nodded before swallowing the pill without any hesitation.
Gugugu!
As soon as the pill entered its body, a look of enjoyment surfaced on the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's face. However, there was no change in its aura, as if the pill was ineffective.
"Master!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast turned to Zhang Xuan doubtfully.
"Don't worry."
As if expecting such a situation, Zhang Xuan chuckled softly before flicking his finger once more.
Hualala!
Over a hundred swords flew out and connected to each other, forming a straight line that resembled a long bridge.
"Lie on top!"
Zhang Xuan instructed.
Even though the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast had no idea why Zhang Xuan would do such a thing, it still decided to crawl over to him.
The Azure Dragon Beast's body was slender like a long snake. It lay on the long bridge formed by the long swords, like a sausage hanging on a bamboo stick.
"Yes!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, he bound the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast with a series of zhenqi ropes, ensuring that it would not fall to the ground. After which, he turned to the Inferno Qilin Beast and said, "This medicine of mine is difficult to assimilate. It requires the assistance of Qilin Flames in order to dissolve it. I might need to trouble you to lend me your flames."
Despite its confusion, the Fire Kirin Beast nodded.
Even though he didn't dare to eat the other party's medicine, it wasn't too difficult for him to borrow the other party's flame. This was a good opportunity for him to see if the medicine was effective or not.
The Inferno Qilin opened its mouth and spat out a burst of crimson flames. In the blink of an eye, the crimson flames swept toward Zhang Xuan.
"Right here, facing the Azure Dragon Beast will do!"
Zhang Xuan instructed.
Tzzzzzzzzz!
The flames burst forth, distorting even the air around it. As soon as the flames landed on the back of the Azure Dragon Beast, a crackling sound echoed in the air.
Zhang Xuan spun his sword around, as if he was roasting a piece of meat.
"…"
Outside the metal cage, Zhang Wuchen and the others glanced at one another in bewilderment.
Even a genius beast tamer like Zhang Jiang couldn't help but be perplexed.
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was clearly his tamed beast. It was already a huge blessing for a Grand Dominion realm pinnacle cultivator to be able to tame a Dimension Sundering realm pinnacle saint beast … But why was he burning it now?
The Qilin Flames of the Inferno Qilin Beast was far more powerful than earth flames, capable of melting even Saint high-tier artifacts easily. No matter how powerful the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was, there was no way it would be able to survive such flames!
"Is this what you mean by wielding a sword?"
Jian Qinsheng muttered in horror.
That fellow had just said that he knew how to wield a sword … He thought that he was going to use a sword to deal with this massive fellow, but who would have thought that he was going to skewer his tamed beast instead?
Did he have to be so conned?
Tzzzzzzz!
Under the searing heat of the flames, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's body began to ooze oil, and the aroma of roasted meat wafted into Jian Qinsheng's nose.
"Master …"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was on the verge of collapsing. Its slender body tried to convulse, but it was bound tightly by the sword, preventing it from moving at all.
"If you wish to achieve a breakthrough, you'll have to bear with it!"
Seeing that the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was on the verge of breaking free, Zhang Xuan sent a telepathic message over. "The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast cultivates the yin attribute of the Inferno Qilin, and the Qilin Flames is a natural counter to your cultivation. However, it happens to be able to clear the accumulation in your body and purify your bloodline, thus allowing you to push for a breakthrough!"
Zhang Xuan's pill had the ability to purify one's bloodline as well, but it was only effective on saint beasts of lower cultivation than him. It was practically impossible for it to work on saint beasts of the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's caliber.
The reason why he said that the pill would help the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast achieve a breakthrough was to make use of the Qilin Flames to purify its bloodline and push for a breakthrough to Saint 8-dan!
"Yes!"
Understanding the good intentions of its master, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast gritted its teeth and persisted.
The power of the flames drilled into the Azure Dragon Beast's body. The Azure Dragon Beast felt as if all the blood in its body was about to boil. Just as it was about to reach its limit, the pill that it had swallowed earlier immediately released a gentle energy, clearing many of the shackles in its body. Its turbid blood also became clearer and clearer.
"It's indeed effective …"
His eyes could not help but light up.
He had thought that his master's method was just a theory, but who would have thought that it would actually work? From the looks of it, he should be able to achieve a breakthrough soon!
Gritting his teeth, he persevered for three minutes, and as expected, cracks were starting to appear in the seal that had shackled his Saint 8-dan cultivation.
"Right now!"
While the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was still hesitating, its master's voice suddenly sounded by its ears. Without any hesitation, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast gritted its teeth and roared furiously.
Rumble!
The dragon's roar seemed to want to tear the entire iron cage apart.
Kacha! Kacha!
As the energy within the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast continued to accumulate, it couldn't hold itself back any longer. Its frenzied aura surged right into the clouds.
"He broke through … he actually broke through?"
The Inferno Qilin retracted its flames and froze on the spot.
The other party had said that it would be able to achieve a breakthrough within ten minutes after consuming the medicine, but it didn't believe him. However, from the looks of it now, the other party was right.
It seemed like the other party hadn't lied to it … the medicine was indeed effective!
It hurriedly turned its gaze toward the young man, only to see that the latter was currently trying his best to control his sword. The jade bottle that contained the medicine was placed on the ground not too far away, completely unprotected.
"Hehe, it's mine now!"
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's eyes gleamed as it clenched its fist.
Hu!
In the blink of an eye, the jade bottle appeared in its palm. Taking a closer look, it saw that there were seven pills inside. Without any hesitation, it opened its mouth and swallowed all of them.
