Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 361: Chapter 13 Black Demon Beast

“Thump, thump, thump…”

The old servant and the White Tiger had collided over a hundred times, and still, the White Tiger hadn’t been killed.

As expected of a high-level Dark Stage magic talisman, the White Tiger that was condensed indeed possessed formidable strength.

Off to the side, Zhangsun Wuji’s expression turned exceedingly dark; he could have pursued, but given the injuries he sustained and the lack of manpower on his side, he chose not to give chase.

“War King Fist!”

The old servant shouted coldly, unleashing nine consecutive punches! Each punch was more powerful than the last!

Nine punches bombarded the White Tiger’s body in succession.

With a loud boom, the White Tiger’s body burst apart.

“Young Master, it is the old servant’s negligence that allowed those two youngsters to escape.”

The old servant hurriedly apologized.

Although Zhangsun Wuji was extremely angry, he didn’t dare to lash out at the old servant recklessly.

This old servant… although he was an old servant of the Zhangsun Family, his unparalleled strength granted him a certain status within the family.

He said, “It is because those two were sly and cunning, and had many treasures on them that they were able to escape; you don’t need to blame yourself.”

“Young Master can rest assured, they won’t be able to run; they’re as good as dead. I, the old servant, have memorized their scents and can track them. The next time we encounter them, I will deliver a fatal blow that won’t even allow them a chance to fight back; they will die by my hand.” The old servant spoke with a sinister confidence about his abilities.

…

“Whoosh, whoosh…”

Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue were swiftly darting through the world of black fog.

After running wildly for more than an hour, they eventually stopped to rest for a moment.

The two exchanged glances and suddenly burst into laughter.

“To have battled with the Martial King and survived; truly exhilarating,” Lin Feng said with a smile.

“Indeed… this battle has also shown me just how fearsome the Martial King really is,” Sikong Zhaiyue nodded in agreement.

The pair seemed not only unafraid after the fact but excited, indeed the make of ‘madmen.’

Perhaps this was the very essence of cultivation? Without madness, one cannot truly grow.

And the more insane Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue became, the faster their progress.

Once they had recovered, the two continued on their journey.

That day, as they were passing through a jungle, they heard the sharp, piercing cries.

Immediately after, Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue found themselves under attack.

It was a dozen terrifying creatures, each the size of a fist, jet black in color, with bodies that looked like they were carved out of black rock.

At a glance, these things looked akin to a frightening bug, with sharp fangs and a scorpion-like tail.

“Black Demon Beasts… It’s these creatures!”

Sikong Zhaiyue was greatly surprised.

It was Lin Feng’s first encounter with these creatures called “Black Demon Beasts.”

They were not mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

For the creatures recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas were generally famous “exotic beasts” and “divine beasts.”

But with how vast the world was, how diverse could the species of fierce beasts be?

Naturally, they couldn’t be all documented.

“What is this?” Lin Feng inquired.

“Black Demon Beasts, a terrifying Dark Attribute creature. Their claws and sharp fangs can easily pierce a cultivator’s body, and they enjoy eating human brains!” Sikong Zhaiyue said gravely, “We must leave quickly; these creatures are impervious to blades and spears, and even magical treasures cannot break their defenses.”

Lin Feng nodded, and together with Sikong Zhaiyue, they quickly sped toward the distance.

But they were entangled by the Black Demon Beasts.

The Black Demon Beasts locked onto Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue, then pursued them relentlessly. Their speed was extremely fast and they simply couldn’t be thrown off.

“Screech”!

One of the Black Demon Beasts let out a piercing shriek.

Then it pounced toward Lin Feng with bared fangs, biting at him.

“Slash”.

Lin Feng, wielding the Black Dragon Sword, struck down on the body of the Black Demon Beast.

A loud clang resounded.

Although the strike sent the Black Demon Beast flying, the Black Dragon Sword failed to break through its defense.

The Black Demon Beast quickly pounced again.

“What a hard body.”

Lin Feng’s expression changed slightly, no wonder Sikong Zhaiyue had looked so uneasy upon seeing the Black Demon Beasts, now Lin Feng finally understood why these beasts were so terrifying.

Beast after beast let out sharp, piercing cries as they encircled and attacked Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue.

“Whoosh…”.

Lin Feng summoned the Xuanwu Shield, which floated in midair.

The Xuanwu Shield released a Defensive Light Shield, protecting Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue inside.

More than a dozen Black Demon Beasts were lying on top of the Defensive Light Shield, constantly gnawing at it. To Lin Feng’s alarm, the shield’s defensive power was rapidly declining.

“These Black Demon Beasts can even consume these energy shields?

Lin Feng’s expression grew solemn.

“Isn’t there anything they can’t devour?” Sikong Zhaiyue wondered aloud, “It is said that they can even swallow the mana of Yin Yang Realm Experts. This is troublesome. If these Black Demon Beasts cling to us and we don’t break free quickly, we will be in danger. These creatures are more troublesome than experts in the Martial King Realm.”

“Sikong Zhaiyue spoke with a serious look.

Indeed, as Sikong Zhaiyue said, they could outrun experts at the Martial King Realm, but against the Black Demon Beasts, escape was impossible.

“Crack crack…”.

The Black Demon Beasts continued to consume the Defensive Light Shield.

The Defense Light Shield, created by the Xuanwu Shield, was being devoured bit by bit by the Black Demon Beasts.

Once the Defensive Light Shield was completely consumed, Lin Feng and Sikong Zhaiyue would have to face the Black Demon Beasts’ attacks directly. At that time, they would be in grave danger, both furrowing their brows with heavy expressions.

Lin Feng asked, “Sikong, do these Black Demon Beasts have any weaknesses?”

“If you’re talking about a weakness, it’s their fear of flames. Although their bodies are tough, their souls are weak. Once exposed to high temperatures, the temperature rises rapidly, and their souls will soon be refined to death. However, we are trapped here by the Black Demon Beasts and have no way to find flames to counter them. Moreover, the most important thing is that ordinary flames hardly affect the Black Demon Beasts at all.”

Sikong Zhaiyue sighed.

“Afraid of flames, huh?”

Lin Feng’s lips curved into a faint smile.

“Whoosh”. The next moment, he flicked his finger.

A tuft of flames leaped out.

Like a joyful Flame Elf, it flickered and danced at the tip of Lin Feng’s fingers.

“What is this?” Sikong Zhaiyue’s pupils constricted sharply upon seeing the flames dancing on Lin Feng’s fingertips. Although he didn’t know what kind of flames they were, Sikong Zhaiyue instinctively felt they must be a terrifying kind.

“This is a flame I refined when I became an Alchemist,” Lin Feng explained.

Sikong Zhaiyue was secretly shocked, never expecting Lin Feng to be an Alchemist as well.

“Let’s see how effective this flame is…” As his words fell, Lin Feng summoned the Purple Flame Earth Core Fire.

Whoosh!

The Purple Flame Earth Core Fire swept across Heaven and Earth, engulfing the dozen or so Black Demon Beasts within it.

“Screech”. The Black Demon Beasts let out mournful cries, frantically trying to escape, but before they could flee from the Purple Flame Earth Core Fire, they were burned to death by the high temperature, and their bodies fell to the ground one after another.
