Chapter 78: The Black Water Kui Bull
This creature was over ten meters long!
It looked like a giant buffalo, but it only had a single horn in the middle of its head. The horn was three meters long, shaped like a crescent moon, curved and sharp. Its color was like white jade, and it shined brightly!
The monster was completely black and had a strong, robust body. If you looked closely, it was covered in neat, fine scales. Even under the dark sky, they still glimmered! Each scale was the size of an adult’s palm, giving a fierce and powerful feeling.
“Roar!”
The monster let out a roar, and it sounded like muffled thunder!
The clouds in the sky gathered even faster. Above Phoenix Lake, dark clouds pressed down heavily. With the monster’s roar, a loud crack came from the rolling dark clouds. Following this thunder, a downpour of heavy rain poured down!
“What is that thing!”
Qin Li stared in shock. His heart was shaken. He never thought there really were animals in this world that could summon wind and rain. He originally thought it was just a legend.
Although the Tianyuan Continent was very different from the world he originally lived in, this scene still made Qin Li feel like he was in a dream.
“It’s the Black Water Kui Bull!”
Ahu’s voice trembled with great excitement. He spoke incoherently, “It really is the Black Water Kui Bull! The legendary Spirit Beast! I never thought it truly existed! Heavens… I am actually lucky enough to see the legendary Spirit Beast! It’s just so beautiful!”
Leng Yao also looked intently at the Black Water Kui Bull, which was dodging and weaving among the group of Heavenly Rank powerers. From time to time, it shot lightning from its white jade-like horn to injure its enemies. She said, “Legend says the Black Water Kui Bull is born with Earth Rank strength! This one is not yet an adult, but it already has at least high-level Heavenly Rank strength! But… it might not be a match for these people!”
Because in an instant, all seventeen of the Royal Family’s Celestial Rank Attendants had flown above the ruins, surrounding the Black Water Kui Bull. No one spoke. Everyone’s face showed extreme excitement. They threw their most refined moves at the Black Water Kui Bull as if they cost nothing!
The dark clouds in the sky pressed even lower!
The rain on the lake became heavier, connecting into a solid sheet! Qin Li and the others in the distance could only vaguely see the shadows within. Even Chen Yihan and the others themselves were somewhat affected.
Although they could use their Protective True Qi to block the heavy rain and keep themselves dry, the rain was too heavy. The figure of the Black Water Kui Bull became increasingly blurry.
“Lock onto it with your Spiritual Sense! We must not let it escape no matter what! This thing’s Mysterious Elixir can directly help me break through the Heavenly Rank! And its Essence Blood, refined into Alchemical Pills, can also allow each of you… to have breakthroughs!”
Chen Yihan’s low voice was like a shot of adrenaline, making this group of Royal Attendants instantly excited. Chen Yihan was originally a respected martial artist in their minds. Now, with such a huge temptation, they couldn’t help but fight with their lives!
As Royal Attendants, they lacked none of the worldly riches and honor. So, talk of competition was irrelevant. These people had almost only one goal: to train, train, and train more, and then—break through the Heavenly Rank!
Pursuing the ultimate state of the Martial Path… that was their ideal and… their lifelong wish!
For these Royal Attendants, being able to witness someone beside them break through the Heavenly Rank—this precious experience was countless times more captivating than all the wealth in the world!
“Kill!”
The martial artists supported their various Combat Techniques with their substantial Prime Force. In the heavy rain, colorful, sharp lights burst forth. With each flash, a new wound would appear on the Black Water Kui Bull’s body.
The Black Water Kui Bull roared repeatedly. Although its movements were agile enough, its huge size made it easy for these super strong martial artists to hit it. Although its scales were hard, it couldn’t withstand the overwhelming number of opponents. Countless minor injuries were slowly beginning to affect its performance.
The most obvious sign was that the rain in the sky… was getting lighter!
But the group of Royal Attendants weren’t having an easy time either. In just a short moment, three of them had already been injured. Although the injuries weren’t fatal, they had lost their combat ability and retreated to the side. They stood on the exposed part of the ruins above the water to tend their wounds and watch the battle.
The Black Water Kui Bull probably also sensed its disadvantage. It let out another roar, and the rolling muffled thunder in the sky seemed to respond. Then, the heavy rain, centered on the Black Water Kui Bull, intensified within a thousand-meter radius around it. In the end, the downpour connected into lines. The lake surface was stirred up with spray and mist, and the shadow of the Black Water Kui Bull could no longer be seen.
However, in the eyes of this group of Heavenly Rank Royal Attendants, this was merely a bit troublesome. Killing this creature was only a matter of time!
Qin Li said in a low voice, “Let’s go down to the lake shore. I feel the Black Water Kui Bull is no match for these Royal powerhouses. It will be killed sooner or later. Most of them will certainly enter these ruins immediately. And these ruins span ten thousand meters, almost the size of a small town. They won’t be able to cover it all in a short while. So, our chance is after they go in!”
Ahu nodded. The opportunity was right before their eyes. There was no room for hesitation now! Perhaps one step leads to the heavens, perhaps one step leads to hell. No matter what, this kind of opportunity comes once in a lifetime. No one would miss it.
Watching the four of them descend the steep cliff, the White Fox gazed at the center of Phoenix Lake with her gem-like eyes and hesitated. In her view, that place was full of danger. Besides the powerful Black Water Kui Bull, there might be other things! Just one Black Water Kui Bull wasn’t enough to make her this afraid!
But she had no way to tell these humans who saved her. She could only watch helplessly as they moved step by step toward the dangerous place. And she herself, her injuries were not yet healed.
The White Fox was caught in a dilemma.
From the moment she was born, the inheritance of the Spirit Beast told her: if you receive a drop of kindness from someone, you must repay it with a spring! Not to mention that human saved her life!
At worst, it meant death! The White Fox closed her eyes. The next moment, a naked girl of about seventeen or eighteen appeared in her place! Her skin was whiter than snow, her figure was excellent, with a slender waist you could almost encircle with one hand, a perky bottom, and full breasts. Two pink tips were like budding flower buds! Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her alluring eyes were like silk, and her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall. She was truly a peerless beauty in the human world!
The only discordant note was a frightening wound running across the girl’s chest and breasts. The neat stitches now looked like a centipede lying there, fierce and terrifying.
The girl’s voice was like an oriole’s. She said to herself, “Being human is so troublesome. You even have to wear clothes!” As she spoke, a yellow dress appeared out of nowhere in her hand. She tilted her head and thought, and then a white tube top appeared in her hand.
A moment later, a stunningly beautiful and radiant girl, like a fairy descending to earth, drifted down the cliff. The little White Fox had only recovered twenty to thirty percent of her injuries. To repay the life-saving grace, she was throwing caution to the wind!
Meanwhile, Qin Li, Ahu, and the others had already appeared on the shore of Phoenix Lake. Qin Li looked at the still extremely fierce battle in the distance and said softly, “I’m afraid we aren’t the only ones watching them. So many people have heard the news and come, especially the people from the Three Great Families of Huangsha City. We haven’t seen a single one of them! I don’t believe they couldn’t get in! So, everyone must be careful later. If we enter the ruins, we will split up. If you encounter enemies, don’t panic. If you can’t win, just give them what you have. Preserving your life is the most important thing!”
The others nodded silently, all feeling somewhat dejected. Compared to those Heavenly Rank powerhouses, they… were just too weak! So weak that the others could crush them with a single finger. To get any benefit from the ruins, they needed to be extremely careful and cautious.
“Damn, hide quickly, conceal your presence!” Qin Li hissed and immediately ducked into a dense thicket. Ahu and the others quickly followed him in.
Because right then, feeling it was outmatched, the Black Water Kui Bull actually rode the clouds and mist, bringing the heavy downpour with it, and charged towards their direction!
Following closely behind it was a large group of super strong… experts with Heavenly Rank strength
