Chapter 1802  Heavenly Beast Sect(8)

After delivering her powerful strike, Xi Meili gracefully leaped backward, creating some distance between herself and the Purple Scaled Long Tail. Although her attack had undoubtedly dealt a significant blow, Xi Meili knew it wasnʼt enough to defeat the beast.

As the dust and debris settled, the Purple Scaled Long Tail came into view, its massive body trembling as it struggled to rise. Its purple scales glistened with sweat and blood, and a large, jagged crack marred its back.

Despite its injuries, the beast let out a low, guttural growl, its red eyes burning with determination. It planted its claws firmly into the ground, lifting itself inch by inch, refusing to yield despite the pain wracking its body.

Hearing the Purple Scaled Long Tailʼs determined cry, the disciple clenched her fists tightly and quickly snapped out of her daze.

”Itʼs not over yet!” she shouted.

Without hesitation, the disciple began gathering her spiritual energy, the air around her rippling with power. Her hands glowed faintly as she focused her energy, directing it toward her beast. Threads of spiritual energy, vibrant and pulsing with life, flowed from her body to the Purple Scaled Long Tail, wrapping around it like shimmering ribbons.

The beast roared as it absorbed the energy, its cracked scales starting to shimmer faintly with a new vitality. Its injuries didnʼt fully heal, but its movements grew steadier, and its aura surged as it stood tall once more, defiance burning in its crimson eyes.

”No, this isnʼt enough!” The disciple gritted her teeth and continued to channel almost all of her spiritual energy into the beast, causing its aura to soar even further, surpassing its original strength.

However, after giving most of her spiritual energy to her beast, the disciple fell to her knees from exhaustion.

”Oh? You can do something like that? How interesting,” Xi Meili muttered in a somewhat surprised tone. This was her first time fighting a beast tamer, so she was still unfamiliar with their methods.

Despite her exhaustion, the disciple pushed herself to continue as she instructed the Purple Scaled Long Tail for their next move.

The beast let out a thunderous roar before leaping high into the sky. As it reached the peak of its jump, its crimson eyes locked onto Xi Meili.

Without hesitation, the Purple Scaled Long Tail opened its massive jaws, releasing a barrage of shimmering projectiles. Each projectile radiated with a faint, fiery glow, crackling with explosive energy as they rained down toward Xi Meili in rapid succession.

As the barrage of projectiles descended upon her, Xi Meili remained unfazed, standing her ground with unwavering confidence. She didnʼt even attempt to dodge the attack, allowing the fiery projectiles to collide directly with her body.

Each impact exploded with a resounding boom, sending shockwaves rippling through the arena. However, to Xi Meili, the force of the attacks felt no more harmful than mere ant bites. Her golden-scaled body easily absorbed the energy from the blasts, leaving her completely unscathed.

The discipleʼs eyes widened in disbelief as she watched Xi Meili stand unshaken amidst the barrage. ”Impossible… those projectiles have enough power to shatter mountains!”

Once the barrage ended, Xi Meili dusted off her golden scales with a casual motion, her expression calm yet filled with an air of dominance.

”Is that all?” Xi Meili asked, her calm yet sharp voice cutting through the tense atmosphere like a blade. Her golden gaze locked onto the Purple Scaled Long Tail as it landed heavily on the ground.

The beast growled lowly, its pride wounded by her words.

”Then I should end this soon.”

”Dragon transformation—50 percent.”

Xi Meiliʼs aura soared even higher, and her power doubled within the blink of an eye.

The Purple Scaled Long Tail trembled uncontrollably, caught between awe and fear as Xi Meiliʼs oppressive presence bore down on it like a towering mountain. Yet, it wasnʼt alone in its fear. The presence Xi Meili exuded extended far beyond their arena, affecting even the other magical beasts in the vicinity. Beasts with far higher cultivation than the Purple Scaled Long Tail were visibly shaken, their heads lowered, and their tails tucked in submission.

”Let me show you a real breath attack!” Xi Meili declared, her voice resonating with power as she swiftly gathered her spiritual energy.

The golden scales on her body began to glow brilliantly, radiating an overwhelming heat that caused the air around her to blur. A swirling orb of light began forming before her open mouth, small but intense, as if it were a condensed star ready to unleash its fury.

The Purple Scaled Long Tail froze, its instincts screaming at it to escape, but it was too afraid to move, keeping it rooted in place. The discipleʼs eyes widened in shock, her voice caught in her throat as she watched the scene unfold.

In a flash, the small orb transformed into a dazzling beam of golden light, roaring through the arena with unstoppable force. The ground beneath its trajectory cracked and burned, leaving a deep scar in its wake as it flew directly at the Purple Scaled Long Tail.

The beast tried to react, raising its tail as a shield. Upon contact, the golden light exploded, creating a shockwave that reverberated throughout the arena, sending dust and debris flying everywhere.

When the dust settled, the Purple Scaled Long Tail was sprawled on the ground, its tail scorched and its body motionless, overwhelmed by Xi Meiliʼs devastating attack.

”Chang Wei!” the disciple screamed in a terrified voice, her knees hitting the ground as she rushed to her partnerʼs side.

The beast, despite its battered and motionless appearance, let out a faint growl, signaling that it was still alive.

Xi Meili then spoke, ”Relax, I held back as much as I could. The damage will heal in a few days with some recovery pills.”

Her attack had been controlled, meant to incapacitate without causing permanent or grievous harm. Otherwise, the beast wouldʼve been erased from existence.

The disciple looked at Xi Meili with a thankful expression.

”T-Thank you!”

Xi Meili shook her head before clasping her hands together and bowing to them.

”I should be thanking you for the valuable experience. Thank you.”
