In the blink of an eye, this five-meter-tall beast had already eaten half of a corpse. As if it had eaten its fill, it wiped its bloody mouth and raised its head to look at Qin Yin and the others. Although the Behemoth looked like a wild beast, it seemed to be far more intelligent than spiritual beasts of the same level. Its pair of dark eyes flickered with cunning.
"Hou!"
It stood up and retreated several steps, confronting Lin Muyu and Qin Yin. However, it did not attack, only roaring angrily.
"What … what is it doing?" Lu You asked in shock.
Qin Yin indifferently said, "It's probably … calling for companions. There should be other Behemoths here."
"Clang!"
Lin Muyu quickly pulled out the Stellar Sword and said, "Then let's finish this battle quickly. Don't give it the chance to call for companions."
"It's too late."
Qin Yin pointed into the distance. Trees were constantly being knocked down in the forest, accompanied by a faint roar. Another Behemoth appeared, and it was a 13,000-year-old Behemoth. It was much stronger than the 10,000-year-old Behemoth in front of them. Qin Yin didn't want to kill it.
… …
"It's over … it's over …"
The Behemoth's angry roars contained the pressure of a sacred beast. It immediately caused Zhang Laosi to dismount from his horse and kneel on the ground. His entire body trembled as he said, "Two ten thousand year sacred beasts, we're dead … dead … it's these ten thousand year sacred beasts that are guarding the Heavenly Tome Monolith Forest. This really is an ominous place. It's over, it's all over …"
If Zhang Laosi was like this, most of the other guards also lost their will to fight. One by one, they dismounted from their horses and stood there with their weapons hanging down. They did not even have the courage to raise their heads to look at the Behemoth.
"Hmph, these weak chickens …" Lin Muyu could not help but snicker to herself. In a clear voice, she said, "Xiao Yin, you deal with this ten thousand year old Behemoth. Leave the thirteen thousand year one to me. Let's see who gets rid of it first."
"Alright!" Qin Yin readily agreed.
Lin Muyu understood Qin Yin's strength all too well. She had the purest Qin bloodline flowing in her veins, and the power of the True Dragon God Binding Chains was not inferior to her own Star God Binding Chains in the slightest. In addition, after cultivating the Dragon Slaying Art, her strength had become even more tyrannical. A ten-thousand-year-old Saint Beast was completely no match for this Empire Empress.
Qin Yin's slender legs slightly parted as she stepped onto the grass. Both her hands gripped the hilt of her sword, and with a light shout, the God Binding Chains began to revolve around her body and the blade of her sword. She took the initiative to attack first. The blade of the sword suddenly shook, and with a 'ding', it actually transformed into a sound wave that rushed towards the ten thousand year old Behemoth. With a 'weng', it swept past, and the weeds on the ground were all pulverized. Meanwhile, the Behemoth let out a miserable howl as a small piece of the Spiritual Energy Astral Qi on the surface of its body was already shattered. In the forest of Heavenly Tome monoliths, it had probably rarely met a worthy opponent, so how could it endure such humiliation? With a furious roar, it charged straight at Qin Yin, but it also played right into Qin Yin's hands. A God Binding Chain burst out from the ground!
"Bang!"
The lower part of the Behemoth's body was struck by the golden energy, and with a miserable howl, it fell to the ground. Qin Yin's cold sword was coming straight at it!
On the other side, Lin Muyu flew out, charging straight at the other Behemoth. The stars on the surface of her body revolved, and the blade of her sword began to emit rays of light from the Starlight God Binding Chains. She faced it head-on with the First Appearance of Starlight, asking for directions first!
"Roar roar …"
This 13,000 year old Behemoth was clearly not that simple. Its two sharp claws were filled with astral winds, and it smashed towards Lin Muyu's longsword. With a 'peng', a heavy rebounding force came from the sword, causing Lin Muyu to be secretly shocked. A 13,000 year old spiritual beast was indeed very strong. In terms of strength, it was already completely not beneath her.
The Behemoth's speed was faster than Lin Muyu's imagination. With an angry roar, it leaped up like lightning and spread out its claws, looking like it was going to tear the tiny human Lin Muyu into pieces in one fell swoop.
However, Lin Muyu's speed was even faster, and her strength was also more dexterous. She raised her left palm lightly, and a ribbon of starlight slowly spread out. The power of the Starlight Chain lingered around it, and she used the Falling Star Steps to flash past the Behemoth's armpit. At the same time, the thick power of the Starlight Chain locked onto the Behemoth's waist!
"Peng, peng, peng …"
The power of the stars on the Starlight Ribbon continued to explode, and suddenly, the astral energy on the surface of the Behemoth's body was continuously blown to pieces. Blood gradually appeared on the hard skin of the Behemoth. It was completely unable to block Lin Muyu's current attack power!
Thinking about it, Lin Muyu's strength had already reached the advanced stage of the Divine Trace Realm. In addition to the support of the Twin Martial Souls, Star Arts, Seven Luminaries Profound Energy, and other peak martial arts, his current strength was roughly equivalent to a 18000 – 20000 year old Holy Beast. Therefore, he was naturally in an invincible position against this 13,000 year old Behemoth.
"Roar roar roar …"
With its whole body full of pain, the Behemoth felt even more ashamed. It turned around and opened its mouth wide to spit out a ball of raging flames.
However, there was no one in front of it. Instead, there was a sharp collision of energy coming from above. When the Behemoth raised its head, it saw Lin Muyu's sword with both hands falling down!
Five Mountains Descend from the Heavens!
"Bang!"
The Star Sword was so sharp that it forcibly cut into the Behemoth's face. With a "crack" sound, one of its left fangs was cut off. Blood splattered everywhere, and it was extremely embarrassing.
"Roar roar …"
The Behemoth roared angrily and wanted to fight back. However, when it lowered its head, it saw Lin Muyu quietly standing in front of its belly, with mysterious Icy Spirit Star Power lingering around his left fist. In an instant, the Behemoth was filled with endless fear. This tiny human in front of it was actually so terrifying. He had been smiling since the beginning of the battle, and that was a calm smile. In other words, he did not take this Holy Beast seriously at all!
At this moment, what the Behemoth thought of was not anger after being humiliated, but fear. An inexplicable fear. This human's strength was enough to destroy it. At this moment, it had no choice but to believe it.
"Buzz …"
The Ice Spirit Star Power was fully charged in a second. Lin Muyu leaped into the air and punched the Beamon Beast's abdomen! It was the fifth form of the Star Arts — Icy Jade Snow!
"Bang!"
The heavy punch landed on the Behemoth's belly. Immediately, a dense chill spread in all directions. Endless frost turned the lush green grassland into a harsh winter. But Lin Muyu's control of power was getting better every day. The Icy Jade Snow only froze everything within a ten meter radius. It did not hurt Qin Yin, Lu You, and the others who were far away.
The Behemoth's roar had already stopped, and its huge body slowly turned into a huge ice brick.
Lin Muyu landed lightly on the ground. Her clothes fluttered in the wind, and she looked extremely ethereal. She held her sword upside down and lightly touched the Behemoth's thigh with the hilt. Immediately, the huge ice sculpture quickly scattered into pieces. Just like that, a 13,000 year old Holy Beast was slaughtered by Lin Muyu with just three moves of the Star Arts without being able to fight back!
Looking back at Qin Yin, she slowly pulled out the Heaven Suppressing Sword from the throat of the other Behemoth. The True Dragon God Binding Chains circled around her, extremely dazzling. She and Lin Muyu had actually finished off their opponents together.
For a moment, Lu You, Zhang Laosi, and the others wanted to die. They all knew how powerful the Behemoth was, but they could never have imagined that this young man and woman could so easily finish off two Behemoths that were over ten thousand years old!
Lu You looked at Qin Yin with even more respect. He could more or less confirm Qin Yin's identity. She had changed her name to Lin Yin, and Lin Muyu had changed her name to Lin Yan. Both of them had the God Binding Chains martial soul. Was this not enough to explain everything?
… …
Lin Muyu grabbed the two Behemoth's spirit stones and threw them into her Universe Pouch. She then raised her eyebrows and said, "The two Behemoths guarding the Heavenly Tome Monolith have already been taken care of. Lu You, quickly take your people to retrieve the monolith. If you're late, it will be too late."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Lu You recovered from his shock and urged his horse, "Brothers, follow me to retrieve the monolith inscriptions!"
The group of guards was especially excited as well. They followed Lu You and charged towards the small hill.
Lin Muyu and Qin Yin looked at each other and smiled. They had to be good people to the end, so they leaped onto their horses and followed. They had to protect this group of people, so that they wouldn't be killed by something at the last step.
The hill was overflowing with spring, and the small hill was littered with stone tablets. The inscriptions on the tablets were actually densely packed divine characters — Oracle Bone Script. There were about ten such stone tablets on the entire hill. Lin Muyu walked forward, and her gaze rested on the stone tablet in front of her. She began to read the inscriptions word by word — Frost. Monsters and demons run amok in the bitterly cold purgatory. The boundless chill devours all good conscience. Souls wail, heaven and earth weep. The endless cycle of reincarnation is about to be broken. The gates of purgatory open, and the chill of death freezes everything in the mortal world. Icy snowflakes dance on the ground — A biting cold winter!
…
Just as he finished reading the inscriptions, his spiritual sense seemed to be attracted to the stone tablet. In the blink of an eye, the divine characters were imprinted in his mind. With a "clang", it was as if some kind of restriction had been opened, and the stone tablet in front of him quickly crumbled into a pile of stone powder. The spiritual force contained in the stone tablet also dissipated rapidly!
"What's going on?!" Qin Yin asked with her mouth agape.
"I …" Lin Muyu took a few steps back. Her face was slightly pale, and she felt a little tired. She said, "I seem to have mastered the inscriptions in this Heavenly Tome … All the words are imprinted in my mind …"
"It's actually so magical?"
Qin Yin could not help but smile. "I want to learn too!"
"Mm, you just need to carefully read one of the stone tablets. When you understand all the divine characters, you should be able to master it."
At the side, Lu You hurriedly said, "Young Master Lin Yan, Miss Lin Yin, don't go and read the divine text. Once you read it, only one person can grasp it. The power of heaven and earth will circulate, and only you alone can write this divine text to activate the power of heaven and earth."
"Ah?"
Lin Muyu was aghast. "There's such a thing?"
"That's right. These Heavenly Tome inscriptions all have restrictions placed on them." Lu You seemed to know a lot.
Lin Muyu's brow furrowed. "How do you know?"
Lu You was somewhat helpless. "My ancestor was once a noble, so he collected an ancient book that vaguely recorded some matters regarding the Heavenly Tome Forest of Monoliths. This Heavenly Tome Forest of Monoliths was carved by God Emperor Fuxi and a hundred disciples in the White Leaves Forest. Every single stone tablet has been imbued with a divine power restriction. It's fine to copy and study, but if one reads it, the divine power will give the exclusive right to use the divine characters to the predestined person."
As he spoke, Lu You looked at the nearby stone tablets and said, "Unfortunately, the stone tablets here only record the inscriptions of spiritual books."
"Spiritual book level?"
