Chapter 293
293 Stone beast advancement
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The five of them hurriedly rose into the air and looked down from the sky. Only then did they heave a sigh of relief.
But soon, his expression became serious again. Wherever the stone beast passed, it devoured a large area of the forest, turning it into a Stone Forest. The entire mountain was turned into a Stone Mountain at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“This is a Kasaya.”
Yunxiao’s face changed drastically as he said in horror, ” “Shit! It had devoured the entire mountain and evolved! The stone beast’s evolution should have started a long time ago, and it should have been interrupted by these five people. I’m afraid it’s almost done now.”
“In that case, let’s hurry up and leave,” yunshang said, her face pale. The aura down there is so strong that it’s suffocating.”
Unmoved, Yunxiao said sternly, ” “Even if he advances to the seventh step, even if I can’t take him down, it won’t be a problem for me to leave. Don’t be affected by the pressure in the demonic Qi. Watch it break through carefully. It’ll be very beneficial for you to break through to the martial King realm.”
Only then did yunshang feel relieved. She performed concealment of spirit and Qi and spread out her divine sense to sense the stone beast’s breakthrough.
“Boom boom boom!”
A huge tremor came from below, as if an earthquake had occurred. The entire space trembled.
“Everyone, what should we do?” One of the five men said with a pale face, ” “This stone beast seems to have gone mad from our attacks. The demonic Qi it’s emitting right now is making me extremely uneasy.”
“What’s wrong? Was he going to give up? Do you know how much that ‘heart of stone’ is worth?” Hmph! one of them snorted. such a huge stone beast, if we kill it, we’ll get at least one piece worth hundreds of millions of primeval stones each!
“It’s indeed not difficult to capture and kill this stone beast, but the difficult part is that everyone is not willing to work together and contribute. How do we fight this?”
“Ahem, that is indeed a problem. Since they had joined forces, they should be honest with each other. Everyone should be the proud sons of their own sects, the strength they displayed shouldn’t be so inferior, right?”
“Hmph, don’t you outsiders look down on the southern mountain range? Then you guys should perform well and charge down now!” The southern mountain range disciple sneered.
“Brother, I was wrong just now. Now, I’m officially apologizing to you. If the five of us still can’t sincerely join forces, then this fat meat that’s right in our mouths will really fly away!” The man from before apologized with a straight face, but the light in his eyes seemed a little demonic.
“Good! Since everyone had agreed, then let’s make an oath together! Whoever doesn’t put in some effort later will be a f * cking turtle and bastard, and their cultivation will be stagnant for the rest of their lives!”
After that person finished speaking, he pointed to the sky with one hand and made a serious oath.
The other four looked at each other, then also made an oath one by one, and then smiled one by one.
“Let’s take this stone beast’s life before it goes crazy!” One of them said.
“Hold on!” Another person stopped him and said,”this stone beast’s transformation is a little strange. Don’t act rashly.” I suggest we go down and investigate.”
“Investigate? Who’s going?”
The five of them immediately fell silent and turned their heads away.
One of them coughed twice and said, ” “Everyone, there’s no need to be so troubled. Isn’t there a ready-made spy over there?” He chuckled and shouted at Yunxiao’s Bluewolf chariot, ” “Brat, quickly come over and go down to find out what’s going on with that stone beast!”
Yunxiao was taken aback and speechless at the shamelessness of these people. brother, I’m only a martial Lord. I’ll die if I go down!
“What are you afraid of?” the man shouted angrily. With the five of us protecting you, it won’t be easy for you to die! I’m just checking out what’s going on with the stone beast, not asking you to subdue it! Besides, do you even have the ability to do so?”
no, no, ” Yunxiao hurriedly said. so, big brother, you should go down and take a look yourself.
“Do you want to die?” The man was furious. He didn’t expect that a mere martial Lord would dare to disobey him. He turned into a beam of light and dashed toward the chariot.
A beam of light spread out from the chariot, and yunshang slowly opened her clear eyes. At this critical moment, she had finally broken through the four symbols realm and entered the five elements realm.
The five elements in the sky gave off a five-colored light and merged into her body.
“Eh? Advanced? Hmph, he’s just a one-star martial King, and he’s still trash!” Standing on the chariot, the man pointed at Yunxiao and shouted, ” “The two of you, immediately go down and investigate the situation. Otherwise, there’s only one word for you-death!”
Yunxiao smiled when he saw that yunshang had successfully advanced. He turned around, raised his eyebrows, and said, ” “You want me to die?”
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
The man opened his mouth, but his voice was cut off all of a sudden, as if a Cork had been stuck in his throat. Cold sweat began to drip down his face, and his lips trembled as he said, ” “Y-y-you’re Yingluo?”
“BOOM!”
Suddenly, a huge tremor burst out from the ground. Monstrous Qi rushed up, and the entire sky instantly became demonic. The stone Mountain at the bottom rose up from the ground with a “Hua La La” sound and transformed into the appearance of a stone beast. It gradually grew bigger and was actually more than ten times bigger than before. It became a towering stone giant and grabbed at the place where the four people were with a palm!
Yunxiao’s face flickered. Ignoring the martial Grandmaster, he quickly turned the chariot around and fled into the sky. He had originally hoped that he would be able to take advantage of the situation after the five of them dealt with the stone beast. Now that the stone beast had evolved into a seventh-rank Emperor-level existence, even if they all fought with their lives, they had no chance of winning.
“Heavens, quickly run!” One of the four cultivators looked at the huge hand and was so shocked that he turned into a ray of light and tried to escape.
“Everyone, don’t run! We’ll block them together! Did you forget the oath you made just now?” The southern mountain range disciple’s eyes widened in anger as he roared.
“Right! He’s right, let’s attack together!”
The other three immediately felt assured. They still had many ultimate moves and trump cards, so they might be able to defeat the enemy. This stone beast was only slightly bigger in size, it didn’t seem to be that powerful!
“Qian Yuan devil spear!”
“Primordial ghost palm!”
“Burning sun Emperor’s Hand!”
The three rays of light bombarded the falling big hand. From a distance, it looked extremely thin. The three attacks landed on the palm of the stone beast, making a few muffled sounds and shattering some stone chips, but it had no effect. The five fingers of the large hand bent, and it was about to grab down.
“Why is there one less person? Who didn’t make a move!” One of them roared in shock and anger. The stone beast’s five fingers were as thick as mountains, and it was able to lock these people down with just its pressure.
The other two were taken aback as well. When they looked over, they saw that the martial Grandmaster of the southern region, who had just shouted for them not to run and asked them to work together, had already turned into a beam of light and fled a thousand meters away, following Yunxiao’s Bluewolf chariot and flying into the sky.
“Pfft!”
A Wu Zong was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. He shouted, ” “Southern domain rats! I’ll definitely tear you to pieces!”
“BOOM!”
After he shouted this, he found that the world was dark.
The five fingers of the stone beast’s large hand clenched together, and a few people’s miserable screams were heard. Then, there were no more signs of life.
After the stone beast killed the five people with a single palm, it raised its head to look at the two small dots that had escaped and chased after them with large strides. His powerful demonic power directly locked onto the two black dots in front of him. With one step, he crossed a thousand meters and chased after them.
“The brother in front, wait for me!”
The southern mountain range disciple was shocked. The stone beast’s pace seemed slow, but with every step, the earth and mountains were pushed back. It actually contained spatial laws! In just a few moments, he had almost caught up to the southern mountain range disciple. He was scared out of his wits and hurriedly called for help. everyone, let’s escape together. At least we can look out for each other!
The martial arts Grandmaster on the Bluewolf chariot was also stunned by the stone beasts ‘power. He said anxiously, ” “Do not wait for him! As soon as he stops, the stone beasts will catch up. Waiting for him is just courting death!”
However, a martial arts Grandmaster’s flying speed was obviously faster than the Bluewolf chariot. The southern region martial arts Grandmaster caught up very quickly and jumped onto the Bluewolf chariot. He cursed, ” “You little brat, are you looking to die? I told you to wait, but you ran even faster!”
The other martial arts Grandmaster sneered and said, ” “Who can run as fast as you?”
The southern region martial arts Grandmaster’s face flashed with embarrassment and anger. He knew that he was referring to him abandoning the other three and escaping alone. But if he wasn’t quick-witted, he would’ve already become a pile of meat. The man’s cultivation was a four-stars martial Grandmaster, which was one level higher than his, so he didn’t dare to contradict him. Instead, he vented his anger on the other two martial Lords and said angrily, ” “I’m talking about you, are you all deaf? Give me a run, ah! Y-y-you are li Yunxiao?”
Bean-sized cold sweat rolled down the martial Grandmaster’s forehead. When he saw Yunxiao’s face clearly, his eyes turned as ugly as a dead fish’s, and he said obediently, ” “Yun … Lord cloud sky City Lord, I … I’m not talking about you, Yingluo. I … I’m talking about that person.” He trembled as he pointed at yunshang, his whole body drenched.
Yunxiao raised his head coldly and said, ” “She’s my teacher.”
ah! the Wu Zong’s legs almost turned to jelly as his body began to tremble.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came into his ear. brother, although this li Yunxiao has extraordinary strength, if you and I join forces, we can easily take him down and control this chariot. When the stone beasts caught up, he would throw these two out to block them. We’ll preserve our strength on the chariot so that we can escape with all our might.”
It was the other martial Grandmaster, his eyes flickering.
“Gulp!”
The southern mountain range disciple swallowed hard and his palms were sweating. He struggled for a second and suddenly shouted, ” “Cloud sky City Lord, this guy secretly sent me a message just now. He said that he would join forces to take you down and throw you out to resist the stone beasts!”
This martial Grandmaster was a disciple of a major sect in the southern region, and he knew Yunxiao much better than the other three regions. The other man had only seen Yunxiao’s power in Yanwu, and he thought that he was only relying on the power of the array. Otherwise, no matter how heaven-defying his cultivation base was, there would be a limit to it. Although he was wary of him, he was not afraid.
This southern region disciple was different. Before they came to Yanwu, their Masters had warned them not to fight Yunxiao head-on, as he was as strong as a Martial Emperor!
