Divine War Pill Emperor

Jiang Chen wanted to stop the Celestial Brown Ridge Python, but he was too late.

WHOOSH!

In an instant, the Celestial Brown Ridge Python’s body blocked Yuan Xi’s path.

Yuan Xi’s eyes were filled with a cold light.

”Die, you beast!”

The Black Whip in her hand lashed out viciously at the Celestial Brown Ridge Python.

SWISH!

The shadow of the whip flashed by.

CRACK!

It struck the Celestial Brown Ridge Python with pinpoint accuracy.

The whip landed heavily on its body.

”HISSS... ROAR...”

The Celestial Brown Ridge Python’s massive body was sent flying, and it let out a series of miserable cries.

It crashed into the woods behind it.

CRUNCH...

One tree after another was snapped in two by the python’s body.

This showed just how terrifying the power behind Yuan Xi’s whip was.

Even though the Celestial Brown Ridge Python was at Martial Master Third Heaven, it was no match for Yuan Xi at all.

It then slammed onto the ground, looking utterly wretched.

Jiang Chen saw a gash on the Celestial Brown Ridge Python’s body so deep that the bone was visible—a wound from a single lash of Yuan Xi’s whip.

His expression instantly turned ice-cold.

The Celestial Brown Ridge Python had been subdued by him; it was his Spirit Pet.

How could he tolerate someone else harming it? Especially since the python had just been trying to protect him.

”You’re courting death. I don’t care if you’re a woman—I will kill you today.”

Jiang Chen was seething, his anger flaring.

With a flash of his hand, a porcelain vial appeared.

With a slight movement of his fingers, an almost transparent stream of air shot out from the vial’s opening, heading straight for Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi, however, was completely oblivious.

At that moment, she was charging toward Jiang Chen, whip in hand, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

”It’s your turn now, kid. Die!”

The next moment, she appeared in front of Jiang Chen.

”Hm?”

Just then, Yuan Xi suddenly felt a sharp pain stab through her soul.

It felt as if countless sharp needles were piercing her very soul.

”AHH...”

She cried out in alarm, her body coming to an abrupt halt. The excruciating pain in her soul made it impossible for her to launch any attack.

She didn’t even know what was happening.

That’s right. It was Jiang Chen’s Soul-Breaking Poison.

Although there wasn’t much left, it was still enough to kill a few people.

Yuan Xi had been struck by Jiang Chen’s Soul-Breaking Poison.

”You want to kill me? Do you really think you’re capable of it?”

Jiang Chen sneered. He was an Alchemist. Underestimating him because of his Cultivation was a mistake—a grave one.

”Kid, what did you do to me?”

Yuan Xi finally realized that Jiang Chen was behind this.

Her expression changed drastically.

She looked at Jiang Chen in horror. She never expected a mere Warrior Seventh Heaven kid to catch her so completely off guard.

She didn’t even know how she had fallen into his trap.

”Nothing much. Just giving you a taste of my power.”

”If you people from the Blood Light Mercenary Corps insist on provoking me, you’re destined to get your teeth knocked out.”

He stood there calmly, his hands behind his back.

Meanwhile, Yuan Xi only felt the pain in her soul intensify.

THUD!

The pain caused her to collapse directly onto the ground, the Black Whip slipping from her grasp.

She twitched uncontrollably on the ground.

A moment later, she was foaming at the mouth, completely dead.

”Hmph!”

”Many have wanted to kill me, but few have succeeded.”

Jiang Chen looked at Yuan Xi’s corpse, his expression serene.

He quickly returned to the Celestial Brown Ridge Python’s side, however, and fed it a Golden Healing Pill.

”Thank you, Master.”

The Celestial Brown Ridge Python knew Jiang Chen had given it a Golden Healing Pill and was instantly delighted.

It thanked Jiang Chen through their mental link.

Jiang Chen shook his head.

RUMBLE...

Just then, a deafening roar came from beneath the ground.

The tremor was so strong that both Jiang Chen and the Celestial Brown Ridge Python nearly fell over.

His expression changed, and he hurriedly looked at the ground.

CRACK...

RUMBLE...

He saw fissures appearing on the ground amidst the rumbling.

Right before his eyes, not far from where Yuan Xi’s corpse lay.

The cracks there were more numerous and densely packed.

’What’s happening?’

Jiang Chen stared in horror at this sudden development.

He knew it couldn’t be Yuan Xi; that woman wasn’t capable of causing such massive fissures.

The Celestial Brown Ridge Python suddenly began to tremble.

It stared in fear at the spot where the fissures were appearing.

It seemed to sense an aura that terrified it, making it afraid.

”What is it?”

Jiang Chen glanced suspiciously at the Celestial Brown Ridge Python. He could feel its terror, a fear so profound it even affected his own heart.

”I don’t know, but I can feel a terrifying aura about to emerge from underground.”

Jiang Chen quickly retreated with the Celestial Brown Ridge Python.

He stood at a safe distance, staring at the spot.

He too could feel a vast and ferocious aura rising from beneath the earth.

There was even a faint smell of fire.

This made him even more alarmed and uncertain.

CRACK! CRACK...

The fissures in the earth continued to widen.

Even the trees began to topple one after another as the cracks appeared.

After the fissures appeared, Yuan Xi’s body slowly tumbled into one of them.

ROOOOAR...

A dragon’s roar, all the more bizarre for coming from underground.

The sound was filled with majesty, spreading powerfully in all directions across Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

ROAR...

AWOOO...

In the wake of that dragon’s roar, every beast in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain began to cry out in unison.

Countless Demon Beasts were roaring.

They howled at the sky as if welcoming their king.

”A Beast King...”

In that instant, Jiang Chen almost stumbled and fell.

A Beast King was actually hidden beneath the ground that was about to split open.

Only a Beast King could make all the beasts of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain roar in unison.

”Yes, it’s a Beast King.”

The Celestial Brown Ridge Python also let out a trembling hiss.

It knew. That was a Beast King; it was the aura of a Beast King.

The fleeing Zhan Yang and the others heard the chorus of beasts.

They all turned their heads in horror.

”The beasts are roaring in unison! A Beast King is emerging!”

”Heavens, another Beast King is about to emerge in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.”

”Quick, let’s get out of here!”

At that, Zhan Yang and the others ran for their lives, fleeing toward the outskirts of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

If a Beast King took action, Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain would be thrown into complete chaos.

The emergence of a new Beast King would trigger a struggle for supremacy among all the Beast Kings in the mountain.

Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain would become a bloody battlefield.

Therefore, staying in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain now would be extremely dangerous.

Elsewhere, the members of the Blood Light Mercenary Corps also had their expressions change drastically upon hearing the dragon’s roar.

Even One-Eyed Wolf, a warrior at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens, felt his heart pound wildly.

Immediately after, the chorus of beasts began, their roars incessant.

”Dammit, we’ve run into the emergence of a Beast King.”

”This is big trouble.”

They had also accepted a mission, only to encounter the scene of a Beast King’s emergence.

”Boss, what do we do?”

”Yeah, with a Beast King emerging, Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is going to be in chaos. We’re in great danger.”

”If we run into a Beast King, we’re done for.”

A Beast King... even the weakest Beast King is at the Martial Arts Realm.

Powerful Beast Kings have Cultivation approaching the Martial Emperor Realm.

At this time, One-Eyed Wolf looked toward a young man in a white robe who stood somewhat apart from the group and asked, ”Young Master Jun, a Beast King is emerging. Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain is too dangerous now.”

”How about we temporarily withdraw?”

In fact, it was because they had accepted a mission from this very Young Master Jun that they had come to Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain.

But Young Master Jun replied coldly, ”I, Lord Wangu, paid ten million. You took the money, so you’d better do the job properly.”

”The emergence of a Beast King has nothing to do with me. I only want to obtain the Black Fire.”

”If I don’t get the Black Fire, I will make your Blood Light Mercenary Corps pay the price.”

Lord Wangu said with extreme gravity.

It seemed he was absolutely determined to obtain the Black Fire that had appeared in Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain this time.

Speaking of the Black Fire, an intense gleam flashed in Lord Wangu’s eyes.

One-Eyed Wolf gave a bitter smile.

For a Mercenary Team, keeping one’s word was the most important thing. Once they accepted a mission, they could never abandon it halfway.

A Mercenary Team with no credibility would be expelled from the Mercenary Castle.
