As the massive body of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast crashed down, the entire earth seemed to tremble violently, as if an earthquake were occurring. Cracks as thick as arms spread from the point of impact… The force of its fall had gouged a huge, deep pit in the ground. The excruciating pain in its eyes caused the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast to emit continuous, agonized roars. Blood, like a stream, flowed from its ruptured eye socket. The punch from the Earth Demon Puppet earlier had given it a real taste of pain.
“Damn you, I will tear you all to pieces!” The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast bellowed to the sky, its voice brimming with unmatched killing intent and fury. Since it had transformed into a humanoid form, this was likely the most shameful moment it had ever experienced.
As the roar faded, the monstrous mouth of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast gaped open, rapidly gathering dense blood-colored energy. In mere moments, this energy condensed into a half-foot-wide blood-colored beam. The horrifying power contained within this beam caused the surrounding space to ripple violently.
“Whizz!”
With a snap of its monstrous head, the blood-colored beam whizzed through the air like a flash of lightning, streaking towards the heavens.
“Be careful!”
Seeing the incoming blood-colored beam, the Heavenly Fire Venerable’s face grew solemn. The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast was on the verge of madness, and such a full-strength attack would not be taken lightly by anyone who was hit.
Xiao Yan immediately sensed the danger of the beam. Before the Heavenly Fire Venerable could warn him, he swiftly activated the Three Thousand Lightning Movement. He left behind a trail of afterimages in the sky, while his body mysteriously vanished.
Facing the slippery Xiao Yan and others, despite the terrifying destructive power of the blood-colored beam, it felt like using a cannon to shoot a fly. Moreover, due to the severe pain, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast couldn’t control its aim precisely. Thus, the beam cut through space, shooting towards the distant horizon before disappearing from sight.
“Xiao Yan, I’ll hold it down. You have the Earth Demon Puppet attack its head!”
After dodging the fierce counterattack of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, the Heavenly Fire Venerable’s expression grew heavier. His voice was grave as he shouted.
“Alright.”
Xiao Yan nodded hurriedly. This Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast was indeed a tough opponent. Two powerful experts, both at the Eight Star Battle Sect level, had been unable to subdue it for a while. And this was with his assistance; had he not destroyed that poisonous cloud earlier, the current situation might have been drastically different.
The Heavenly Fire Venerable’s face was heavy, as boundless soul energy surged out from his body without reservation. As his hand seals changed, it transformed into an invisible, hundred-yard-wide net.
“Go!”
With a wave of his sleeve, the soul energy-formed net rushed down, enveloping the massive body of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast.
The moment the soul net touched the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast’s body, it emitted a series of hissing sounds. This soul net could ignore the latter’s formidable flesh and directly bind its soul.
The sudden binding startled the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, causing it to struggle frantically. But no matter how it fought, the soul net, like a parasite, clung to its body, trapping it tightly.
“Attack now!” The Heavenly Fire Venerable barked.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly. With a snap of his fingers, the Earth Demon Puppet leaped from midair, landing heavily on the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast’s large body with a force that caused the beast to crumple.
The terrifying force made the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast emit a furious roar. Its enormous scorpion tail whipped around, turning into a dark, cold shadow aimed at the Earth Demon Puppet on its back.
In the sky, Xiao Yan sneered. As his hand seals changed, the wolf spirit formed from the Glazed Lotus Heart Flame also dashed down, biting the scorpion tail fiercely before it could hit the Earth Demon Puppet, causing hissing sounds to erupt.
The pounce of the fire wolf caused a white mist to spread over the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, the intense heat making it feel a searing, painful burn.
BOOM!
Under the combined pressure of the soul net and the fire wolf, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, despite its enormous size, couldn’t move, only flailing wildly and causing the earth to tremble and crack.
SHINE!
A silver glow flashed and appeared on the head of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. A fist, radiating brilliant silver light, slammed down mercilessly, solidly striking its crown.
The combat power of the Earth Demon Puppet mostly depended on its highly refined physical body. Even without using any Dou Qi, the destructive power of its sheer physical strength was extremely terrifying. Now, with just one punch, even the Eight Star Battle Sect-level strength of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast couldn’t withstand the blow, leading to a wail of agony. Its struggles became even more frenzied.
While struggling, a thick, corrosive blood mist began to surge out of its body. Under the influence of this eerie blood mist, the soul net of the Heavenly Fire Venerable also started to make hissing noises.
THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!
Seeing this, Xiao Yan’s face darkened. With a thought, the Earth Demon Puppet clenched its fists, punching harder and faster, like a pile driver, hitting the same spot on the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast’s head repeatedly!
As the bizarre blood mist touched the Earth Demon Puppet’s body, it also hissed. The surface of the puppet’s sturdy, dehydrated body began to crack under the corrosion.
Noticing the changes in the Earth Demon Puppet, Xiao Yan’s expression shifted slightly. He hadn’t expected the poison in the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast to be so potent, not even the puppet’s hardened body could resist it.
His eyes flickering, Xiao Yan’s gaze turned resolute. He didn’t believe that with their combined forces, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast could still turn the tables!
An order was sent from his mind, and within the Earth Demon Puppet, a burst of brilliant silver light erupted, barely resisting the blood mist. Its fists rained down like a deluge, crazily pummeling the creature’s head. The low, booming sounds were like drums, causing hearts to tighten with each blow.
With the brute physical force of the Earth Demon Puppet, a single punch could cause an ordinary Battle Sect to vomit blood. But the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, relying on its thick skin, managed to endure dozens of blows. Despite this, the shell on top of its head shattered, gushing blood, and the white, bony structures of its brain could be faintly seen…
Accompanied by this terrible pain, the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, in shock, felt a sense of powerless slowly spreading from its heart. Its vitality seemed to be rapidly ebbing away.
At this point, it finally became fearful. If things continued like this, it might truly be beyond hope today!
“Stop! What do you want? I am a member of the Scorpion Dragon Clan. If you kill me, they will never forgive you!” The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast roared, its solitary, blood-red eye filled with fear.
“We want your demon core,” Xiao Yan said with a faint smile, giving it no respite. He knew that when facing such a powerful magical beast, the slightest mistake could lead to a complete failure. They had invested so much effort to capture this creature; letting it escape now would be too costly.
Even as Xiao Yan spoke, the Earth Demon Puppet continued to strike, a relentless killing machine, each punch causing the space to shudder, waves of invisible force spreading out and shaking the outer layers of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast’s flesh to pieces.
Enduring so many heavy blows, even with the mighty resistance of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, it couldn’t take any more. A sensation of death enveloped its heart.
In this state of near-death, the eyes of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast, fixated on Xiao Yan, gleamed with a venomous light. After a long moment, it growled, “I, Mu Xie, swear by the blood of the Scorpion Dragon Clan that you will spend your entire life fleeing from our pursuit!”
As soon as it finished speaking, the other blood-red eye of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast detached and exploded, sending a tiny, blood-colored beam piercing through space at an astonishing speed, flashing into Xiao Yan’s body.
The speed of this blood beam was terrifying, leaving Xiao Yan, who could do nothing but watch, powerless to dodge.
“The Scorpion Dragon Clan will not let you go. You cannot escape…” The Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast laughed with venom, two streams of blood flowing from its large, empty eye sockets, an incredibly frightful sight.
Xiao Yan’s face turned icy, and with a shift in his hand seals, the Earth Demon Puppet’s body emitted a dazzling silver light, gathering all its strength, and then delivered a thunderous punch!
With this punch, the space around it crumbled, creating a half-foot-wide black hole!
BOOM!
A terrifying punch, filled with overwhelming power, landed on the head of the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. Under such a terrifying force, the beast’s large head exploded, turning into countless fragments of flesh and blood!
As the Heavenly Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast’s head exploded, the countless beasts in the distance stopped their restlessness and, after a brief moment, dispersed with a speed even greater than when they had arrived, leaving the area in disarray.
