Chapter 198 Xuanming Beast
Chapter 198 Xuanming Beast
As the saying goes, saying more is useless. Rather than asking for trouble, it is better to remain silent to avoid causing more unnecessary trouble and suspicion.
However, to everyone's surprise, as time passed by, things took an unexpected turn.
To everyone's astonishment, they realized an unbelievable fact—they were still inside this towering, mysterious building that seemed to reach the heavens.
Moreover, he didn't move an inch from beginning to end, remaining trapped in the same place, like a caged bird, unable to break free.
To make matters worse, it was precisely at this critical juncture, when life and death were at stake, that the situation came to a head.
Without any warning, the surrounding area was simultaneously subjected to a fierce attack from all directions, like a surging tide, unstoppable and overwhelming!
In an instant, the crowd, who were still immersed in the joy of defeating the remnant soul of the demon god, were suddenly thrown into a state of panic.
It should be noted that they had just fought a fierce battle with the powerful remnant soul of the demon god, which had already exhausted a great deal of their energy and strength.
At this moment, facing this sudden and fierce attack, like a storm,...
Everyone was momentarily at a loss, unsure of how to respond.
Huan Yuechu clenched her teeth, trying her best to steady her swaying body.
At the same time, Yu Chen, dressed in pure white, also had a furrowed brow.
His sharp eyes swept across the surroundings like lightning, trying to find a clue in the seemingly chaotic attack.
After careful observation, Yu Chen finally made a discovery—it turned out that although these attacks looked chaotic on the surface, they actually contained some kind of subtle pattern.
So he quickly moved closer to Huan Yuechu and whispered.
"I feel that there must be some unspeakable secret or strange thing hidden inside this tower."
Upon hearing this, Huan Yuechu nodded slightly in agreement.
Immediately afterwards, she closed her eyes and focused intently on sensing the subtle fluctuations of spiritual energy in the surrounding air.
Just then, Huan Yuechu, who had been keeping her eyes tightly closed, suddenly opened them.
His gaze was unwavering, fixed straight ahead, as fiery and bright as a burning torch, seemingly able to pierce through the thick fog and reach the distance.
Her brow furrowed, and she suddenly exclaimed, "They're here!"
The shout resounded like thunder in the air, carrying boundless determination and courage.
As Huan Yuechu shouted, everyone's hearts tightened, and their already taut nerves were stretched to the limit like a bowstring.
They gripped their weapons tightly, leaned forward slightly, and assumed a posture of readiness.
A solemn expression appeared on everyone's face, and their breathing became rapid.
Before long, a series of light footsteps approached from afar, and gradually, a group of strange-looking creatures slowly emerged from the darkness.
These creatures were large, covered in black scales that gleamed with a cold light.
Their heads resemble those of wolves, but they have blood-red eyes that radiate a chilling, ferocious light.
A sinister and chilling aura quietly permeated the area around these mysterious creatures.
The chill seemed to emanate from the depths of the deepest hell, seeping out in wisps that sent shivers down one's spine.
"What kind of strange monster is this?" Mu Yang asked, his face full of surprise.
His eyes widened as he stared intently at the creatures emanating an eerie aura, his heart filled with doubt and shock.
The group exchanged bewildered glances and, almost unanimously, shook their heads, indicating that they knew nothing about it.
For a moment, the scene fell into silence, with only the chilling aura still slowly flowing in the air.
Just then, Yu Chen, who had been observing silently, suddenly broke the silence, his voice steady and firm.
"This is a Xuanming Beast!"
"What? Could it be that all these creatures in front of us are actually the legendary Xuanming Beasts?" Mu Yang exclaimed in disbelief.
Yu Chen nodded slightly and answered affirmatively, "That's right."
Following the direction Yu Chen pointed, everyone saw that the leading Xuanming Beast was exceptionally large, standing like a towering hill.
Its thick, powerful limbs, like giant pillars supporting the sky, hold up its enormous body.
Its entire body is covered with a thick layer of black fur, shimmering with a cold luster, as if it can withstand any attack.
Sharp, pointed fangs protruded from the corners of their mouths, gleaming with a chilling light.
A pair of blood-red eyes, like burning flames, coldly swept across the surroundings, radiating an invisible pressure.
It opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp fangs, and let out a deep, deafening roar.
"You fools who don't know your own mortality, daring to trespass into this place and disturb its peace! Now that you're here, don't leave!"
Huan Yuechu took a deep breath, then took a step forward and said loudly.
“We have no intention of offending your territory; we are simply lost and stranded here.”
"If you can tell us how to leave, we will leave immediately and never disturb the peace of this place again."
Upon hearing this, the Xuanming Beast sneered, "Hmph! You think you can just leave so easily? There's no such thing as a free lunch!" After saying that, its blood-red eyes stared intently at the crowd, revealing undisguised killing intent.
Standing to the side, Yu Chen quietly leaned close to Huan Yuechu's ear and said something.
"Given the situation, further discussion is probably pointless; we have no choice but to take a gamble."
Huan Yuechu nodded helplessly, indicating her agreement.
In an instant, the battle broke out without warning.
Although everyone was exhausted, they gritted their teeth and charged forward to fight the Xuanming Beast to the death, despite the powerful enemy.
Surprisingly, despite the critical situation and the extremely unfavorable circumstances, the battle did not end.
But they never gave up, stubbornly resisting wave after wave of ferocious attacks from the Xuanming Beast...
Just as everyone was driven to the brink of despair by the Xuanming Beast, a sense of hopelessness gradually rose in their hearts.
Suddenly, a dazzling and intense light burst forth from Huan Yuechu's delicate body!
The light was like a blazing sun suddenly rising, so bright that it was almost impossible to open one's eyes. Even the ferocious and brutal Xuanming beasts were momentarily stunned by the light and stopped their attack.
Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Huan Yuechu dared not delay for the slightest.
She quickly moved her hands to form hand seals, while muttering a series of obscure and difficult-to-understand incantations.
As she moved and chanted incantations, powerful spiritual energy surged forth from her body.
They condensed into various tangible objects in mid-air, such as sharp arrows and huge shields, and charged fiercely towards the group of Xuanming beasts with overwhelming force.
