The 2-star beast tamer who had left him feeling frustrated just a moment ago, upon seeing that they were going to roast the Deerhorde Beast, tried to dissuade Zhang Xuan before leading the crowd away, fearing that they might get into trouble. Zhang Xuan thought that the fellow was just trying to scare him, but to think that he would really get into trouble.
Could it be that he had already foreseen that they would encounter the Soul Devouring Ants and predicted that the formation would be broken, resulting in the current situation?
"That's impossible! Soul Devouring Ants are extremely rare, and even I can't recall where they are at the moment. How could a 2-star beast tamer who isn't even twenty possibly know of them? "
Even though he thought that it was possible, he still found it hard to believe.
Soul Devouring Ants were the nemesis of the soul oracles in ancient times, and they had been missing for many years. As for their habitat and living environment...
How could the other party be able to deduce all of that in just a few minutes?
If the other party had such means, putting aside 2-star, he might even be a 4-star or 5-star beast!
These thoughts flashed across his mind, and even if he wanted to delve deeper into the matter, there wasn't enough time for him to do so. Straightening his back, he suppressed the stifled feeling in his chest and landed on the ground. Shaking the spear in his hand, he glared at the massive savage beast and said, "Brother Demon Cinque, you should know my temper well after knowing me for three years. I don't have any intention of harming you, so why don't we call it quits today... Let's continue to get along fairly... Y-you, stop!
Why are you still coming at me? "Before he could finish his words, the massive figure appeared before him once more and raised its claws.
Peng!
Deflecting the attack with his spear, Zhang Xuan retreated once more.
Even though they were both Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle cultivators, there was still a huge gap between their strength. He wasn't a match for the other party at all.
Feeling the stifling sensation in his chest, Hall Master Han bellowed furiously, "Don't force me! Do you think that I can tame you with that formation? What the heck!"
However, before he could finish his roar, he was struck by the Demon Cinque Beast's wing once more, and he was sent flying several times before crashing heavily onto the ground.
At this moment, Hall Master Han was stifled.
Honestly speaking, if he knew that roasting the Deerhorde Beast would attract the Soul Devouring Ants and destroy the formation, he would have never done so!
Now, not only had the Deerhorde Beast's meat been completely devoured, this fellow was also on the verge of going berserk. No matter what he said, it seemed like he wouldn't stop until he was beaten to death.
Turning his head to look at the 2-star beast tamer, Master Sai, and the others, he nearly spurted a mouthful of blood.
They saw a group of people standing several hundred meters away. The young man from before looked over leisurely as he spoke to the young men behind him.
"Do you see that? This is the consequence of not listening to others. In the future, when you go out to explore the world, you must pay attention and learn more from others. Don't be obstinate and self-opinionated … In short, don't learn from him!"
"Un. Also, even though his previous move might seem impressive, it's actually a mistake. If he had executed it half a breath earlier, the Demon Cinque Beast would surely have been distracted... To be able to execute such a move, it goes to show that his battle technique isn't anything impressive!"
"In the future, all of you must practice your martial skills properly. Don't think about taming this and that every day. Rather than wasting three years here, why not hone your own strength? That's more powerful than anything else …"
…
As the young man spoke, he commented.
After hearing those words, Hall Master Han's eyebrows twitched uncontrollably. At this moment, he even felt like pinching the other party to death.
The heck!
I am a Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle expert, the hall master of the Beast Hall. How can I be nothing in the eyes of a brat like you? Nothing at all?
But... what left him even more frustrated was that... after listening for a while, it seemed like the other party's words were all correct. Even if he wanted to refute them, he didn't know where to start.
"There's something weird about this fellow. After dealing with the Demon Cinque Beast, I'll ask Master Sai about it!"
At this moment, no matter how foolish he was, it was clear that the young man before him wasn't simple. The other party must have seen through something in advance for him to say those words.
However, this wasn't the time to be conflicted. Dodging the Demon Cinque Beast's attack, Hall Master Han raised his head.
"Brother Demon Cinque, since you don't agree to it, don't blame me for getting nasty!"
After which, Hall Master Han took in a deep breath and shook his arms.
At this moment, he was already standing before Elder Hu and the others, forming a unique formation with them.
Even though Elder Hu and the others were sent flying by the Demon Cinque Beast, they didn't sustain any severe injuries. After resting for a moment, they had already recovered from their injuries. Upon hearing Hall Master Han's words, they immediately got into position and whipped out their weapons. Huala! Their auras surged into the sky, and a collaborative formation was formed.
"It's the formation that those people used previously, but it's much more profound and powerful!"
From afar, Zhang Xuan took a glance and nodded his head in approval.
It just so happened that he had the opportunity to witness a battle between Transcendent Mortal 4-dan experts. Naturally, he had to explain it to Zhao Ya and the others. Otherwise, how could they possibly improve?
"Indeed. This formation is able to bring out the strengths of each individual, thus increasing their fighting prowess by more than twofold!" Jin Conghai nodded.
He had crossed blows with those few young men who used this formation previously. If not for his vast combat experience and superior cultivation, it would have been difficult for him to emerge victorious.
Given how formidable the juniors were, these elders had been immersed in the formation for an even longer period of time. On top of that, their fighting prowess was even greater!
"If they were the ones who executed it, even if there were four or eight of us, we would still be helpless before them!" Hall Master Sai couldn't help but exclaim after taking a glance at the situation.
The reason why the two of them were able to suppress the young men wasn't due to the formation itself but because they were far stronger than the other party. On top of that, they weren't too familiar with collaborative formations.
On the other hand, Hall Master Han, Elder Hu, and the others were different. Clearly, they had immersed themselves in the field of formations for several years. Every single movement of theirs was intricate, and their coordination with one another was even more ingenious. From the very start of the formation, they were able to exert immense pressure on the charging Demon Cinque Beast.
"So this is his true trump card! Most probably, after failing to tame it three years ago, he started practicing it. That's why he was able to achieve such incredible results! "Hall Master Sai continued.
Even though the Confinement Formation was formidable, what if the other party refused to submit to it? Honestly speaking, even if he wanted to tame it, he didn't dare to kill it.
He had been wondering if Hall Master Han had any trump cards up his sleeves, and from the looks of it now, it seemed like this was the case.
The formation formed by the collaboration of the few of them was extremely powerful. Even a Transcendent Mortal 5-dan primary stage expert would be a match for them. Naturally, it wouldn't be a problem for them to deal with a Demon Cinque Beast which was only at Transcendent Mortal 4-dan pinnacle.
"Do you think that... they can win?"
Seemingly seeing through Zhang Xuan's thoughts, Zhang Xuan chuckled lightly.
"They must have practiced this formation innumerable times, and they should be able to suppress the Demon Cinque Beast!" Master Sai said.
As a Transcendent Mortal 4-dan expert, he was well aware of the fighting prowess of a person of their caliber.
This collaborative formation was extremely profound, and it was able to bring out the strengths of the group. No matter how powerful the Demon Cinque Beast was, it wouldn't be easy for it to triumph.
"Should?" Zhang Xuan shook his head. "He might have a trump card, but does that mean that the Demon Cinque Beast doesn't have one as well? If a joint attack formation could suppress them, they would have been killed by the League of Nations long ago! "
Back then, the alliance had sent several experts to deal with Zhang Xuan, but none of them succeeded. Yet, Hall Master Han thought that he could succeed with a single formation. He was really underestimating that fellow.
"Moreover, this is actually a killing formation, able to kill the people or creatures within it. He wholeheartedly wants to tame it, not daring to kill it. He is restricted at every turn, so how can he display the greatest power?"
After learning the Heaven's Path Formation Art, Zhang Xuan's understanding of formations had reached an incredible level.
Although Zhang Xuan did not know the name of the joint offensive formation, he could clearly tell that it was a killing formation used to kill enemies.
Currently, Hall Master Han was only focused on taming the Demon Cinque Beast, so he chose to use the Killing Formation as a Confinement Formation instead... As such, the might of the Killing Formation was greatly reduced. It was just a matter of time before he failed.
Just as Zhang Xuan had said, Hall Master Han and the others still held the upper hand initially. However, as the Demon Cinque Beast charged forward without any regard for defense, they began to retreat.
Pu pu pu pu!
A few minutes later, the old men were swept by the wings. Blood sprayed everywhere as they suffered serious injuries.
Bang!
Under the other party's attack, Hall Master Han's spear flew out of his hands and fell heavily to the ground.
Hu!
After destroying the formation, the Demon Cinque Beast grew even more furious. Raising its massive hoof, it stomped down on Hall Master Han.
This stomp was as powerful as a mountain. If Hall Master Han were to be stepped on, no matter how powerful he was, it would be difficult for him to survive.
"You..."
Facing such a ferocious move, Hall Master Han forcefully endured the pain and stood up. Zhenqi gushed forth from his palms as he faced the attack.
Peng!
The hoof clashed with his palms, and the two were locked in a stalemate.
Just as Hall Master Han felt that the strength of the other party's hoof was growing stronger and stronger, and he felt as though he would be crushed into a meat patty at any moment, an anxious voice sounded.
"Zhang Shi, I beseech you to save Hall Master Han!"
The one who spoke was Master Sai.
Having known each other for so many years, he didn't wish for his old friend to die before him. However, he was well aware of his own strength. If he couldn't even match up to his old friend, how could he possibly defeat this monster before him?
At this point, he could only plead with Zhang Shi to save him.
Even though Zhang Xuan's strength was far beneath his, after the past few days of interaction, he had learned that the other party possessed incredible means. Perhaps, there might be a way for him to save Hall Master Han.
"I'm not a match for this Demon Cinque Beast, how can I save him?"
Following which, the voice of the young man sounded.
Hearing those words, despair filled Hall Master Han's eyes.
He thought that after three years together, the Demon Cinque Beast had made several preparations for him. Yet, never in his dreams did he expect that this fellow would be so powerful that he wouldn't be able to stop it!
"You must have a way... Otherwise, once the Demon Cinque Beast kills Hall Master Han, it will surely make a move on us..." Master Sai said anxiously.
"Oh, I do have a way!" The impassive voice of the young man sounded.
"What way?" Master Sai asked agitatedly.
Hall Master Han's body tensed up, and he seemed to have regained his motivation. Pricking up his ears, he wanted to hear what the other party had to say.
"Simple, we just have to get that fellow to let him go!" the young man said.
Pu!
Hall Master Han spurted a mouthful of blood.
