Chapter 573

After crossing three ancient barriers continually, Shi Yan felt exhausted . As he was about to use the pellets to recover, his eyes suddenly brightened .
Ye Xiong, Zhu Yi, Yue Ying, and Yun Xiu arrived one by one, their faces eager . They too looked ahead with surprise .
There was no ferocious energy fluctuation . The ground there was deep red, without a single grass . Cold gusts blew, as if they wanted to chase all the clouds away, fluttering distantly .
It was a huge broken tomb . White bones piled up, such that they couldn’t even see where it ended . That area was covered in an ash-gray mist, which was thin but filled with a cold aura .
Many killing formations in this graveyard were completely broken . The incomplete formations had lost their effects .
Lightning crossed the space through the astral wind . It was the incomparably pure thunder and lightning power, which could destroy souls . It seemed there was a strong beast hiding and dozing off inside the lightning strikes, and sometimes, it breathed out lightning, shooting towards the lightning clouds next to it .
The beast stayed in the middle of an immense area, where cold gust chilled people to the bone . The chaotic energy was constantly moving and wrecking havoc .
Shi Yan’s team was standing safely in a spot that didn’t have any barrier .
"Is that beast the Heaven Thunder Beast?" Shi Yan cracked a silent smile . "Well, seems like we have arrived . "
"Yeah, even though this isn’t the center of the Shady Firmament Old Mound, the Heaven Thunder Beast lives here . " Ye Xiong said with a happy expression . Pointing at the surroundings, he explained, "It should be a bigger ancient barrier right where we’re standing . But, its existence consumes a lot of energy . After so many years, the energy to maintain the formation has drained . That’s why we can stand here unharmed . "
Following Ye Xiong's direction, people paid attention and found many formations set up around them .
Shi Yan’s eyes lit up . He observed for a while and then exclaimed in awe, "So dangerous . This is a compound ancient formation formed by ten other formations . After each ancient formation is activated, it will boost up the whole formation . This is really terrific . The one who built this ancient formation was absolutely a genius . "
The shabby formation around them had pieces combined with pieces . Many materials used to build the formations were taken away . The formation they saw now was incomplete, but its area was vast, around hundreds of mu (unit of area equal to one-fifteenth of a hectare- TL . ) It should be much more dangerous than the barriers they had met before . And, it wasn’t something a regular formation master could build .
"True, it’s a compound formation . " Zhu Yi observed for a while . He was amazed too . "We’re lucky that this ancient formation couldn’t be maintained . Otherwise, it would be really tough to deal with . "
Shi Yan nodded .
From the present vestige, when this ancient formation was still intact, it should be pretty huge .
The light tunnel the Sky Breaking Shuttle could create had a limit . In such a vast barrier, perhaps the light tunnel created by the Sky Breaking Shuttle couldn't reach its boundary . If they wanted to use the Sky Breaking Shuttle to get out, it would be much more complicated .
"Heaven Thunder Beast’s here . Even if it doesn’t have a barrier, this place’s still very dangerous . " Ye Xiong hesitated for a while and said, "The strong astral wind and lightning surrounding the beast isn’t caused by any formation… It seems natural . Last time I came here, my Soul Consciousness got chaotic when I got into the affected zone of the cold wind . My spirit almost collapsed . "
Shi Yan was overwhelmed with shock .
"That astral wind’s extreme . I think it’s the upgraded version of the cold gust . It can enter the deep place in our soul directly . " Ye Xiong took a deep breath . "We should lure the Heaven Thunder Beast out of there . "
"Where’s the Ancient Cave Mansion you said?" Yue Ying frowned .
She cared about this matter more . She came here for the Ancient Cave Mansion and the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame . These two were more attractive!
Although the Heaven Thunder Beast’s demon crystal was precious, Yue Ying didn’t need it . Her martial techniques and power weren’t related to thunder and lightning power, which meant she didn’t need to use the beast’s demon crystal to enhance her power .
"As long as we get Heaven Thunder Beast, the Ancient Cave Mansion will appear . " Ye Xiong laughed cheerily . "Be patient . We should seal the main business first . Yeah, I think even though the warriors of the Martial Spirit Palace and the Heaven Temple have met troubles, they would still get here . We should hurry up . "
Zhu Yi nodded, "Right, as fast as we can . They aren’t easy to deal with, either . "
"Alright . First, we need to lure the Heaven Thunder Beast . We’ll leave it to you," Shi Yan nodded to Ye Xiong .
Ye Xiong didn't talk useless words . He sent his Soul Consciousness into the Storage Ring and took out a potted spiritual herb, which was planted in a glass pot . This grass had seven green, dewy leaves, as if it were real emerald, with a strange aroma that lingered around without dispersing .
"This is the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass . Its fragrance is quite thick, and it’s the most efficacious medicine to the Heaven Thunder Beast . " Ye Xiong put the potted spiritual grass on the deep red ground ahead of them, then poured three flows of his aura into the grass .
The thick aroma permeated the space quietly towards the Heaven Thunder Beast .
The Heaven Thunder Beast looked like a lion with snow-white fur . When the sweet fragrance got into its nostrils, its dark green pupils sparkled . Lightning strikes were dancing indefinitely in its eyes .
The beast got up . Its fur fluttered in the cold gust as it walked towards the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass .
"Level 8 demonic beasts have intelligence . Can we entice it with only that grass?" Shi Yan didn’t feel relieved .
As far as he was concerned, the King of Demonic Insects and the Devouring Gold Silkworm were both high-intellect creatures with common sense . The Heaven Thunder Beast was also a level 8 demonic beast, so it shouldn’t be lured simply like that .
"Of course the Heaven Thunder Beast won’t be trapped that easy," Ye Xiong nodded, "Look . "
After the Heaven Thunder Beast got out of the astral wind area, its nose sniffed for a while . Flashes of lightning covered its body, changing quickly .
Not long after that, Heaven Thunder Beast shrank in the lightning, transforming into a middle-aged man with white hair draped on his shoulder . Cold light sparkled cautiously in his eyes . He turned around to watch here and there, then shouted loudly . "You again!"
Lightning flashed in Heaven Thunder Beast’s eyes . Thunder echoed in his body as he was walking through the astral wind, looking at them coldly .
The power of the chaotic, cold wind hindered his vision . He looked to his left and then his right, as if he didn’t spot his target . Gradually, he approached the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass .
When he was around ten meters away from the grass, Heaven Thunder Beast waved his hand and the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass seemed to be grabbed by some force, falling directly into his palm .
The Heaven Thunder Beast didn’t try to be polite, swallowing the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass directly . While chewing, it shouted, "What do you want?"
Ye Xiong didn’t answer it .
"Ye-ge, how are you going to deal with him?" Zhu Yi was a bit suspicious now . "With only the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass? The Heaven Thunder Beast’s a level 8 demonic beast . It’s not afraid of toxins . You know that beasts have different body structures compared to humans . Their anti-poison ability is far beyond us . If you want to use poisons to deal with beasts, it won’t work unless it’s the poison that can kill True God Realm warriors . Heaven Thunder Beast can sense poisons . If it dares to eat the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass, sure it knows that the grass isn’t poisoned . What’s your plan?"
Shi Yan had doubts but he was puzzled .
Demonic Beasts had a special physique, with poison resistance ability way better than that of humans . A level 8 beast could be compared with a True God Real expert in this aspect .
Warriors who had reached the True God Realm were almost unaffected by all poisons in this world . Unless, it was a True God realm expert specialized in poisonous technique, who could enter the Poison God level in refining poisons .
No one had ever reached the True God Realm using poisonous techniques in the entire Divine Great Land .
"It’s not poisonous," Ye Xiong grinned as a trace of contentment flashed in his eyes . "It’s not the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass . It’s the Seven-leaflet Soul Cutting Grass . I got it from an old vestige . The Seven-leaflet Soul Cutting Grass and the Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass can be planted together, but the success rate’s low . The vestige I found was special . The Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass grew there had a branch of the Seven-leaflet Cutting Soul Grass growing together . These two species of grass have the same aroma, but their natural characteristics are opposite . The Seven-leaflet Jadeite Grass nurtures the soul, and the Seven-leaflet Cutting Soul Grass cuts the souls . "
"Seven-leaflet Cutting Soul Grass?" Zhu Yi was amazed . "I have never heard about this spiritual grass . "
"I got its features from an ancient book," smiled Ye Xiong . "Any creatures with souls that eat this Seven-leaflet Cutting Soul Grass will be affected . Its soul will be cut off piece by piece . Gradually, its soul will be in chaos . Human warriors who eat it will have their Sea of Consciousness broken . The spirit and the mortal soul of the host soul will be detached . At that time, they will go crazy . When beasts eat it, their intelligence will reduce, and their souls will be disordered . At that time, only their ferocious beast instinct remains . "
Shi Yan changed his countenance slightly .
"The Seven-leaflet Soul Cutting Grass isn’t poisonous . It can affect the soul of a life to bring out the real nature . " Ye Xiong laughed arrogantly . "The natures of the beasts can’t be changed . Greedy, brutal, and bloodthirsty . . . As long as its nature stirs it up, the Heaven Thunder Beast can’t keep its mind clear and sound enough . At that time, we can do anything to it, right?"
While Ye Xiong was talking, the Heaven Thunder Beast suddenly roared ferociously .
After the deafening roar, the white-haired man transformed . Amidst rumbling thunder, the Heaven Thunder Beast turned back to its original form, a snow-white furry lion .
The pupils that once were filled with wisdom had now become bloodthirsty . The beast cried and roared wildly, jumping out of the wind to attack the enemy .
It didn’t remember the cold astral wind behind . To the beast, the wind now was its natural shield .
Heaven Thunder Beast moved slightly . Thunder rumbled and electric snakes danced . Brutal force shot out everywhere . Its imposing manners were too ominous and crazy .
Ye Xiong was scared, but cheered up . He screamed happily . "It got out . Be careful . We’re about to catch it . "
What people were afraid of was the terrible land that the Heaven Thunder Beast was hiding in, where the natural cold gust was moving fiercely . Now that the beast had got out of its habitat, they didn't need to worry more .
Even if the Heaven Thunder Beast was stronger, it was just a level 8 demonic beast . Ye Xiong, Zhu Yi, and Yue Ying were at the Third Sky of Spirit Realm . Together with Yun Xiu and XY, it was enough to deal with a level 8 beast .
Shi Yan squinted . He didn’t call the War Devil but the Sky Destroyer, ready to support the others .
All of a sudden, a strong energy surged, shooting out from the place next to Heaven Thunder Beast .
A gray light cave broke down . A group of experts that had been hiding for many days appeared . They stormed towards the Heaven Thunder Beast like wolves and tigers .
Lei Mo and Ai Po .
