Chapter 69: Ultimate Attack
Above the heavenly curtain.
A chillingly sharp aura permeated the air.
Golden light condensed.
A projection filled with an ultimate sense of power emerged.
It was a dark gold giant bear standing upright, over a hundred meters tall, with muscles knotted like cast metal, full of explosive power.
Most striking were its forepaws, whose claws were like five gigantic, dark gold scimitars, over ten meters long, glinting coldly.
Just its projection made people feel as if their vision was being torn apart by that sharp aura.
Its scarlet eyes were filled with cruelty and a desire for destruction, and it let out a silent roar towards the sky.
Fine black cracks appeared in the surrounding space!
[soul beast power ranking list, Eleventh Place: Xiong Jun (Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear)!]
[Soul Beast Age: Approximately 450,000 years]
[Affiliation: Star Dou Great Forest]
[Assessment: King of the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear tribe, possesses a portion of Behemoth Bloodline, attribute is Ultimate Gold. Its pair of Dark Gold Dreadclaws possess the terrifying power to tear space, representing the ultimate physical attack among land Soul Beasts.]
[Reward: Soul Beast age increased by 40,000 years! Dark Gold Dreadclaw quality sublimated! Sky-Rending Claw Profound Truth power doubled!]
"450,000 years! Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear!"
"Tearing space? This attack power is too terrifying!"
"It's the Star Dou Great Forest again! How many of these monsters do they have?"
"Eleventh place! A 400,000-year-old Soul Beast is only eleventh?"
"…"
The various factions on the continent had just recovered from the Ice Empress's Ultimate Cold.
They were once again shaken by Xiong Jun's ultimate power and sharpness.
A cultivation of over 400,000 years, coupled with those Dark Gold Dreadclaws that seemed capable of tearing apart anything, its destructive power was chilling just to imagine.
Moreover, this Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear…
Was also an existence largely unheard of by most Soul Masters!
Star Dou Great Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life.
A low bear roar, filled with satisfaction, echoed.
Xiong Jun's projection solidified in space, its pair of Dark Gold Dreadclaws shimmering with a heart-palpitating light.
It accepted the baptism of golden light, and its age reached 490,000 years.
That pair of claws became even deeper and sharper.
It seemed to genuinely possess the Origin power to tear rules, and the Profound Truth of Sky-Rending Claw became even clearer in its mind.
"Old fellow Xiong Jun, his attack power is indeed undeniable."
The Red King's three heads swayed, a sign of approval.
Di Tian nodded slightly: "Xiong Jun's Sky-Rending Claw, in terms of pure attack, indeed ranks among the top of us."
Clear Sky Sect, on a mist-shrouded mountain peak.
Sect Master Tang Xiao and the Five Elders gathered, the atmosphere as heavy as an impending storm.
They looked at the Soul Beast projections on the heavenly curtain, each more terrifying than the last.
Feeling the oppressive force that could be transmitted across an infinite distance, everyone's faces were extremely grim.
"Bang!"
The Seventh Elder slammed the stone table, and the hard rock surface instantly cracked. He angrily said, "How is this possible? How can these Soul Beasts be so powerful?!"
"Four hundred thousand years! Among the Clear Sky Sect's ancestors, the Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beasts they hunted were few and far between!"
"But… these Soul Beasts are too terrifying!"
The Second Elder sighed, his voice full of helplessness: "Seventh Elder, calm down. The facts are before us; we have no choice but to believe them."
"Only now do I understand why Ancestor Tang Chen left a warning, saying that there was great terror deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, and one could not enter without being of Divine Rank…"
"It turns out he was referring to these existences."
Tang Xiao clenched his fists, his knuckles white. He said in a low voice, "My Clear Sky Sect has remained hidden, preserving our strength, striving for prosperity, only waiting for the right moment to return to the continent."
"But now… in front of these Soul Beasts that are hundreds of thousands of years old, what is our so-called 'Number One Sect in the World'?"
"I'm afraid even if we exert the full strength of our Sect, we might not be able to do anything to any one of them!"
The Elders exchanged glances, seeing the heaviness and urgency in each other's eyes.
The pride of the Clear Sky Hammer.
Was shattered in the face of an absolute power gap.
Shrek Academy.
The atmosphere was even more oppressive.
Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the other teachers looked at the heavenly curtain, no longer even having the strength to exclaim.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and the others were even paler!
They had previously been smug about being on the genius ranking.
Now they felt that accomplishment was like child's play in front of these ancient existences that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years.
And Master Yu Xiaogang was the most severely struck.
He slumped in his chair, his eyes vacant.
His lips trembled incessantly, muttering repeatedly.
"Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear, 400,000-year-old Soul Beast, impossible, this is impossible!"
"My theories… my ten core competencies…"
Flender worriedly supported his shoulder: "Xiaogang, cheer up! These Soul Beasts are unheard of; maybe this heavenly curtain made a mistake?"
"Made a mistake?"
Yu Xiaogang suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot, and roared hoarsely: "Flender, look at that projection, that power that tears space, is this something that can be mistaken?!"
"My theories… the theories I've researched for half my life are simply a joke in front of these true top-tier Soul Beasts!"
"I don't even know of their existence, so what research can I talk about? What core competencies?"
He suddenly grabbed Flender's arm with such force that Flender felt pain: "Flender! Tell me, am I ridiculous? I always thought I had glimpsed the truth of Martial Souls and Soul Beasts."
"But now I realize I haven't even seen the true face of this World!"
"I… I'm simply a frog in a well!"
Liu Erlong looked at Yu Xiaogang's pained expression, her heart aching, and quickly comforted him: "Xiaogang, this isn't your fault!"
"These Soul Beasts are hidden too deeply; hardly anyone on the entire continent knows of their existence!"
Watching Yu Xiaogang, who was on the verge of deep self-doubt and collapse, everyone at Shrek fell silent.
What the heavenly curtain brought was not just a shock of strength.
But also a complete subversion of the established cognitive system… Before everyone could recover from the shock of Xiong Jun's ultimate offensive.
The golden light on the heavenly curtain changed again.
This time, what was projected was not a specific beast form.
Instead, it was a distorted, eerie, ancient forest phantom emitting a rich life aura and Spiritual fluctuations.
In the center of the forest, an enormous, strangely purple tree slowly emerged.
The trunk of this strange tree was as thick as a mountain, with countless purple branches wriggling like tentacles.
A blurry and eerie human face appeared on the trunk, and a pair of strange eyes, composed entirely of purple light, seemed to be able to pierce through people's hearts and control their Souls.
[soul beast power ranking list, Tenth Place: Myriad Demon King (Demonic Eye Demon Tree)!]
[Soul Beast Age: Approximately 500,000 years]
[Affiliation: Star Dou Great Forest]
[Assessment: The strongest plant-type Soul Beast, once transformed by devouring an Immortal Spiritual Plant, rules a large area of the outer Star Dou region. Possesses attributes close to Ultimate Wood, and simultaneously has various strange abilities such as Spiritual, poison, and time. Its comprehensive abilities are extremely strong.]
[Reward: Soul Beast age increased by 40,000 years! Spiritual Origin and Life Origin greatly enhanced! Bloodline Power increased by ten percent! Domain skill 'A Moment, A Millennium' effect enhanced!]
"Five… 500,000 years! A plant-type Soul Beast!"
"Demonic Eye Demon Tree? Can it also control time and Spiritual Power?"
"This ability is too strange! It's impossible to guard against!"
"Tenth place! A 500,000-year-old Soul Beast is only tenth?"
"…"
If Xiong Jun represented ultimate physical destruction.
Then the Myriad Demon King brought an unpredictable comprehensive threat.
A 500,000-year-old plant-type Soul Beast!
This had completely overturned Soul Masters' inherent impression of plant-type Soul Beasts being weak and slow-growing.
Its possessed Spiritual, poison, and even time abilities.
Made people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
Within the hidden space.
The phantom of an eerie purple tree swayed, and a mysterious smile seemed to appear on the Myriad Demon King's blurry human face.
It absorbed the rewards, and its age reached 540,000 years.
Its Spiritual Power and Life Origin surged like a tide, and the 'A Moment, A Millennium' skill, which involved the Domain of time, became even more difficult to resist.
