Chapter 904: Invincible Divine Language
Spirit controllers and beast tamers were two occupations that had extremely great upper and lower limits.
For beast tamers, the insignificant ones weren’t even able to tame ordinary ferocious beasts, let alone ancient beasts. The amazing ones would be people like Duanmu Li.
One had no idea how many battle pets he had. It was to the extent that he alone was an entire army.
The Four Symbols Life Ignition Great Formation’s prowess was fully unleashed.
Those who had serious injuries and were of lower cultivation tiers were quite weak and couldn’t resist. Right now, all of them exploded, releasing consecutive bangs. Then they started burning. They turned into a ball of spirit flames and were absorbed into the huge tortoise’s back. Serving as fuel, they caused this great formation’s prowess to be raised once again.
Murong Ye dashed toward the huge tortoise, wanting to kill it. However, before he could make a move, he was stopped by Duanmu Li.
Bang bang bang!
Both of them had another round of exchanges. The seething spirit qi was like bullets, hitting the floor and walls, sending fragments splattering.
“Duanmu Li, you’re really brutal!”
Murong Ye’s expression was savage.
At this moment, he finally realized that he was too arrogant and conceited. Duanmu Li had relied on true strength to become the Dark Dawn’s Starlord.
“Right back at you!”
Duanmu Li wasn’t having it easy either. His strength was in his battle pets and his actual strength was a little far off from Murong Ye. However, if his martial prowess wasn’t sufficient, he could make up for it with his brains.
After the great snake was done spurting out poisonous fog, its body turned fainter and it entered a state of concealing its body.
Leaving things in suspense without taking action would be better, able to take away Murong Ye’s attention. However, this secondary saint wasn’t someone easy to deal with either.
“Hmph!”
Murong Ye let out a cold snort and with a flash, appeared in front of Murong Mingyue. His right hand reached out, grabbing the venomous snake that had darted out toward his niece at the speed of lightning.
He channeled in spirit qi!
Bang!
The venomous snake exploded into pieces.
Murong Mingyue was Murong Ye’s ace. Only she would be able to control the Dragon Subduing Army. Therefore, Duanmu Li was attacking what Murong Ye would definitely save.
“You leave this place first!” Murong Ye instructed.
“Do you think that I don’t exist?” Duanmu Li’s lips curled up.
“You…”
Murong Ye was about to retaliate when a great warning rose in his heart. He wanted to dodge, but an arm had shot over like a sharp arrow, piercing through his chest.
It was Murong Mingyue.
“Let me teach you something. Never take on a beast tamer who possesses several battle pets head-on. It’s because you’ll never know how many hidden aces up his sleeves.”
Duanmu Li laughed softly.
(You think that I only have 2 kings? Sorry, I still have 4 aces and a bunch of twos [1]. I’m definitely winning!)
The huge tortoise’s responsibility was to maintain the Four Symbols Life Ignition Great Formation. The great snake’s was to spew poison and obstruct vision, laying low and waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack. The majestic eagle’s job was to quickly clear up the scene.
The white tiger might seem to be a battle pet that focused more on attack. But the truth was that its roar had the effect of befogging one’s mind.
When the beast king let out a battle cry, it could control humans’ hearts, treating humans as their battle pets as well as enslaving and controlling them.
Of course, if it wasn’t because Murong Mingyue was far too precious to Murong Ye, he wouldn’t have been so anxious to save her and thus fell for the trick.
“…”
Jiang Ji was bedazzled. He had always looked down on beast tamers, feeling that they always showed off by relying on their battle pets. But now, his mindset had changed.
“You think that you’re sure to win this?”
Blood flowed down from the corner of Murong Ye’s lips, and he stared at Duanmu Li with a savage expression. He then struck out a great skill toward the white tiger.
Windseek!
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Countless spirit qi blades erupted with a flash, suddenly appearing around the white tiger and slas.h.i.+ng onto its body.
This attack forced the white tiger to go on full defense and removed its control over Murong Mingyue.
“Mingyue, what are you thinking? Take action!”
Murong Ye let out an explosive bellow.
(d.a.m.n it, why did you screw up at a time like this?)
“Oh!”
Murong Mingyue didn’t really want to fight. She even felt like dying. Otherwise, why would she be easily controlled by the white tiger?
If she were to put up some resistance, Murong Ye would have been able to notice it and protect her.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Murong Mingyue reached out both hands into her sleeves. When she took them out again, she was holding onto ten silver needles.
They pierced into Murong Ye’s body, and his spirit pressure immediately rose at an explosive rate. The few people who were injured couldn’t take it and their bodies exploded.
Pa!
Blood and pieces of flesh splattered everywhere.
The spirit qi in the Dragon Heart Great Hall also gushed over at a crazy rate, entering Murong Ye’s body.
Duanmu Li’s countenance changed. The other party was trying to use absolute power to crush him. He mustn’t drag this out anymore and must try to complete the Four Symbols Life Ignition Great Formation as soon as possible. With it, he could enslave the dragon soul and then use it to kill Murong Ye.
“It’s time to take a look at my performance!”
Murong Ye smiled savagely. Before the last note of his words ended, his body appeared in front of Duanmu Li and he launched out a punch.
Boom!
It looked like an ordinary-looking punch, but it seemed to have broken the obstacles of s.p.a.ce, hitting Duanmu Li’s chest directly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Murong Ye attacked furiously. The spirit qi on his body also turned into a myriad of swords, shooting out incessantly.
Duanmu Li found it hard to receive the attack and kept on backing off.
His muscles were torn and blood was splattering. His ribs were also being broken consecutively. The spirit qi on his body had turned into birds and ferocious beasts, gus.h.i.+ng out non-stop to stop those longswords.
The draconic puppets and the black-clothed men had stopped fighting. It was because being alive under such a strong spirit pressure was already a survival issue for cultivators.
Swoos.h.!.+
The great snake swung its tail and darted in front of Murong Mingyue. It bared its mouth widely and bit down fiercely.
With a swoosh, Murong Ye teleported in front of the great snake again. He grabbed out with his hand and tightened the grip.
“Die!”
Bang!
The great snake broke into two pieces as if it had been cut by a pair of invisible scissors.
Pffft!
A tremendous amount of purple fog gushed out from the broken point, engulfing Murong Ye. At the same time, they formed a strange formation.
Boom!
This purple fog started burning up.
Pffft!
Duanmu Li spewed out another mouthful of blood. He no longer wore a composed expression but was staring at Murong Ye with great hatred. It was because he had sacrificed his ‘azure dragon’ battle pet to kill Murong Ye.
The battle pet had only been feigning an attack on Murong Mingyue. Its actual objective was to trap Murong Ye, forcing him to retreat.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Murong Ye’s body exploded and flames were burning. He broke free from the purple fog’s restraints and appeared in front of Duanmu Li once again.
“Sun Mo, what are you still waiting for? Throw out the divine language!”
The dragon’s loud bellow rang out in Sun Mo’s mind.
“You’re asking me to kill myself!”
Sun Mo was speechless. If the two secondary saints were to notice his small actions, he’d definitely die a horrible death.
Moreover, given the duo’s current battle senses, Sun Mo would definitely be noticed if he were to throw out the divine language. Then, he’d just be attacked by them.
However, Sun Mow wasn’t an indecisive person either. He made a move without hesitation because he wouldn’t have a chance anymore if the victor was decided.
Hearing Sun Mo’s words, the dragon soul felt like it was going to be driven to death.
“You fool…”
However, the dragon soul had just said this when it felt a divine language hitting it.
Kacha! Kacha!
The soul contract chains that were bound around its soul showed cracks and then broke. When they fell off, they turned into dust and dissipated.
“I’m free!”
The dragon soul’s entire body trembled intensely as it let out a loud cry from its soul. It had been confined for so long that it forgot how many years it had been…
Right now, it had finally regained freedom!
