Chapter 132 Chapter 132

Should I run away immediately, or stay and observe the situation?

Xia Muqing was in a dilemma.

Reason warned her that what was emerging from the crack ahead must be a great terror, and she might not be able to handle it alone. However, there was another voice in her heart that shouted firmly: Just take a few more looks, just a few more looks!

If we could know what was coming out of the passage, it would definitely be an important intelligence clue!

Xia Muqing's heart pounded, and she subconsciously clutched Feng Luo Jun's shoulders. The blue parrot, nearly frightened to death by the thick air, used its beak and claws to pull her back tightly. "Chirp, chirp!"

Run, why are you still standing there?

Xia Muqing took a deep breath and wiped her face vigorously.

A look of determination shone in her light brown eyes. She grabbed the blue parrot and gently tossed it back. "I'm sorry, I can't leave yet. You should escape to a safer place first."

Blue Parrot Fighting Bird: “???”

"I'm a registered beast user with the association," Xia Muqing said softly, her tone growing increasingly resolute. "The association won't abandon us. If we can gather more intelligence now, we might be able to save even more people later."

And with Xiaofeng's ability to sense danger, Xia Muqing believed that even if she couldn't win, she could still escape without any problem.

She made her decision, and now the dilemma became that of the Blue Parrot.

It blinked its big eyes, looked at Xia Muqing in surprise, then turned its head to look at the earth in the distance that was swept by the storm. The whole bird was in a bad state.

It's very dangerous here, and other places may not be safe either!

It was very weak at the moment. Where could it go if it ran away alone?

There are space storms everywhere outside!

Blue Parrot Fighting Bird was in tears and tugged at Xia Muqing's collar, wanting to persuade her a few more times. Suddenly, a streak of light broke through the thick clouds from a distance and quickly approached their location.

As it got closer, Xia Muqing saw that it was a shadow. The black smoke dissipated, revealing Guan Yun's figure.

Guan Yun hadn't expected to see Xia Muqing here. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and waved at her: "Hi, are you okay?"

"It's okay," Xia Muqing was a little dazed, "Why are you here?"

The storm spread out from the snow forest as its core. When ordinary people observe this, shouldn't they hide away from the center?

Guan Yun landed beside her and smiled nonchalantly: "Yes, now that we've observed the core of the storm, shouldn't we come over and see what caused it?"

If this cause can be resolved, perhaps the space storm will stop and the crisis for the candidates can be eliminated!

"Don't look at me just being promoted. I'm still a Divine Beast Master after all. I'm receiving all the association's benefits and enjoying so many social resources. Isn't it all for this moment?"

Guan Yun said it as a matter of course, but Xia Muqing felt warm in her heart after hearing it.

A moment later, a massive figure rushed in from the other direction. The Chengtian Turtle used its maximum speed, its massive form now as light as a swallow, and rushed straight towards the heart of the storm.

Xue Yao leaped down from mid-air, his hearty voice stretching out in the air: "I knew you, crazy woman, would come. Don't try to get rid of me and play the hero—Oh, Xia Shen Beast Envoy is here too. Are we thinking the same thing?"

The wind howled all around, dark clouds gathered in the sky, sharp fragments of space drifted around, and the entire world was filled with a dangerous atmosphere. But at this moment, Xia Muqing looked at the two people who had arrived at the same time, and the corners of her lips could not help but rise.

The aura escaping from the end of the rift is terrifying, but so what?

She is not alone now, they have three beast masters!

Even if they are all newly promoted people - but three cobblers can still be better than Zhuge Liang, right?

Guan Yun and Xue Yao immediately noticed the spatial rift before them after landing. Blown by a deep, chilling wind that seemed to freeze even the bones, both of them wore serious expressions.

"What a terrifying fluctuation. What's on the other side?"

Xue Yao touched his arm and said, "I'm getting goosebumps... Ugh, be careful, it's coming!"

As soon as the words fell, a powerful wave finally exploded from the depths of the rift. The darkness swayed like mud, and it was as if a dark curtain was drawn back.

A huge figure appeared silently in front of the three people.

…

The wind was blowing coldly and there were bursts of phantom sounds, like the sound of muffled thunder.

Xia Muqing's pupils contracted violently, and Guan Yun and Xue Yao on the other side also subconsciously raised their right fists to block in front of them, taking a defensive stance.

“Snap, snap…”

A chimpanzee, roughly seven or eight meters tall, appeared before the three of them. Its hunched back took each step, and its landing felt like a heavy hill. The ground shook with each stride, and a massive shadow cast its shadow over them. Xia Muqing had to crane her head high to barely make out the chimpanzee's face.

Her pupils reflected the man's chin covered with wiry moustaches, his arms long enough to touch the ground, and his muscles bulging like rocks. She murmured softly, "Erosion... Erosion Mountain Ape?"

The man's exposed chest was a muddy yellow, and his entire body was shrouded in profound energy as thick and heavy as loess. His cloudy eyes rolled slightly, aiming at the three young humans below him, and he sneered disdainfully, "Throat?"

[Are all the human adventurers dead? Only three little brats are left to stop me?]

The Eclipse Ape didn't take Xia Muqing and the other two seriously at all. His gaze only stayed on Lord Feng Luo for a brief moment before quickly drifting away in all directions.

It saw the scattered space storms, but as a dark beast king with strong defense, it was not too afraid of the scattered debris in the air. Instead, after sensing the breath of human beast masters scattered everywhere, it showed an excited look.

"throat!"

So many humans, so fresh! This is such a blessing! I love it!

【Fresh flesh and blood, here I come! 】

Hearing what Shishan Xing said, Guan Yun and Xue Yao were stunned for a moment.

"What do you mean?" Guan Yun asked, "Isn't this guy the one who messed with the space storm? Is he just a lucky find?"

Xia Muqing was in a state of panic. "It really wasn't caused by him. I guess this guy was just being used as a pawn... But it doesn't matter. Anyone who wants to attack the examinees is our enemy—Xiao Feng, expand!"

Lord Feng Luo roared towards the sky, and his body swelled up instantly!

It had just reached the ape's knees, but after using the skill, its body suddenly grew in size and was able to reach the ape's waist.

Immediately, Lord Feng Luo opened his huge mouth and spit out a ball of azure air.

Skill, blizzard!

The howling wind whipped up the surrounding snowflakes, quickly transforming them into a blanket of wind. The whirlwind surged, the cold air turning into a sharp blade. The distant mountains and the sky became blurred in this surging wave of snow.

The cyclone expanded in the air and slammed hard into the chest of the Mountain Ape!

“Boom!”

Air waves rippled in all directions, a deafening roar. After just a dozen seconds, the snow mist dissipated, revealing the gorilla's rock-hard fists. It held them in front of its chest, its body unscathed despite only a few scrapes of the black hair on the backs of its hands.

It even opened its mouth, showing a mocking smile to Lord Feng Luo, with a mouth full of yellow teeth.

"throat?"

[This little bit of wind and snow, is it trying to tickle me? ]

Lord Feng Luo took a half step back, a faint blue light flashed in his eyes, and a low roar escaped from his throat: "...Awoo!"

It knew that the mysterious beast in front of it was powerful, definitely surpassing ordinary divine beasts. Even the blizzard skill under the blessing of expansion would hardly cause substantial damage to it - but what if the wind brought more than just snow?

“Crash!”

A flash of light appeared, and a dark hole suddenly exploded in the air.

Lord Feng Luo's target from the beginning was not just the wind and snow, but the scattered space fragments floating in the air due to the space storm!

Even individually, those spatial fragments could inflict more damage than the sharpest blade, let alone now that they were gathered together by Lord Feng Luo. They squeezed and collided with each other, aided by the wind and snow, and suddenly exploded in the Erosion Ape's chest, instantly forming a small, black hole-like crack that almost drained away all the air.

The Eclipse Ape was grinning fiercely when he was caught off guard by the exploding space debris. A sharp flash of light exploded before his eyes, and he subconsciously yelled, "Throat!"

It clutched its chest, but it was too late. An unspeakable pain shot through its chest, and the eroding mountain ape frowned and looked down, only to see that half of its palm was covered in blood.

The storm that had just exploded had opened a deep scar in the center of its chest.

The mountain ape's hair stood up all over its body - you know, although it is strong, it also has weaknesses. If the storm just now had gone a little to the left and exploded its heart, it might really have been seriously injured!

"throat!"

The Mountain Erosion Ape jumped up in anger, stretched out its long arms suddenly, grabbed a huge rock as big as a small hill, and smashed it hard at Lord Feng Luo!

Damn it, they actually dared to hurt it, so it would deal with these little guys in front of it first!

The Wind Luo Lord's massive form swayed slightly, then shrank suddenly. It nimbly dodged the Mountain Erosion Ape's attack and nimbly leaped onto another rock. As it landed, its body swelled again, and it bit into a ball of green wind and spat it out again.

It had mastered the skill of enlargement to perfection, its body switching between large and small sizes, leaving even the Mountain Gorilla unable to react in time.

However, the Eclipse Ape was prepared for this second cyan wind. He grinned and roared, "Throat?"

[You want to use the same trick on me a second time? ]

Its arms were raised in front of it, its knees bent, its back arched high, its entire body shrouded in a murky, loess-colored aura. Its body instantly transformed into the hardness of diamond-like earth, its fur transformed into sharp needles. The raging wind and snow could not shake it in the slightest.

Skill, Panshan!

“Boom!!”

The wind exploded, and fine dust floated in the air, like raised mud and sand.

But this time, the exploding space force was not as strong as in the previous round, because the space rifts that were nearby were swept over by the blizzard last time, so of course there would be less left this time.

Feeling that the power of the attack was not as strong as before, the Eclipse Ape smiled excitedly: "Throat!"

[What? That's all? The mythical beasts raised by humans are so weak!]

On the other side, Lord Feng Luo landed in front of Xia Muqing, with a breeze surrounding him.

Xia Muqing looked at the Eclipse Ape coldly and whispered, "Yes, the Dark Beast King that grew wildly in another dimension is indeed powerful... but don't forget, we are not alone!"

Before he finished speaking, two balls of hot energy shot out from the left and right sides, hitting the slightly hunched back of the Mountain Ape like cannonballs!

High in the sky on the left, the Witch Shadow Beast held Guan Yun's body, and the Light Realm Frog squatted on her shoulder, spitting out a dazzling beam of light from its mouth: "Skill, Light Thermal Cannon!"

On the right, Xue Yao stood on a small hillside, with Canglang Jiao climbing on the rock wall in front of him. There were shadows all around him, like a forest of reefs, surging waves, or like a sea of ​​clouds and endless rain.

"Skill, Izumokai!"

With the help of Lord Fengluo's body shape and skills, the two divine beasts launched attacks one after another. Although it was the first time for them to fight together, under the tacit command of the three beastmasters, they actually cooperated with extraordinary power.

The "Photothermal Cannon" and "Izumo Sea" landed on the back of the ape at the same time. The high heat caused the water vapor to evaporate suddenly, resulting in high temperature and air pressure that almost sucked out all the air. Coupled with the outer layer of defense broken by the "Blizzard", a layer of skin on the ape's back was broken in almost an instant.

In pain and anger, it put its hands behind its back, trying to cover its bloody back with its palms, and its roar almost shook the world: "Throat! Throat! Throat!"

Kill, kill you all! I’m going to kill you all!

On the other side, Guan Yun fell from mid-air, staring at the Eclipse Ape with a slightly fixed look in his eyes.

"Our attacks have all hit it, why hasn't it lost its ability to move yet?"

Xia Muqing said in a serious tone, "...It's not that simple. The Mountain Gorilla already possesses extremely strong defenses. Our attacks just now only broke its skin, and it's far from causing serious injuries."

"I'm afraid this will be a long battle—be careful!"

The Mountain Ape broke off a piece of the mountain with his hands, crushed it hard, and then threw it towards the three of them!

Its body was too tall, and its palms were like huge palm-leaf fans. Every piece of rock that flew towards it was like a meteorite falling from the sky. As it passed through the sky, it rubbed violently with the air and emitted a crackling fire.

There was a gleam in Lord Feng Luo's eyes, and his danger perception ability was activated. He instantly pulled Xia Muqing and jumped down the hill on the left.

At the same time, it let out a low growl, alerting the other two to hide in a safe place.

The eroding mountain apes scattered rocks as densely as rain. Some were as big as basketballs, while the largest were taller than a person. Furthermore, the rocks were coated in yellow profound energy. Xia Muqing had no doubt that anyone struck by these rocks would be seriously injured, if not killed.

Fortunately, Lord Fengluo was reliable, and he used his characteristics to the extreme - under such intensive and continuous group attacks, he was able to protect the three people and dodge them easily without being hit by any stones.

Xue Yao looked at this scene, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

"What a powerful trait," he exclaimed sincerely. "By hiding like this, can we hide until the gorilla is exhausted, and then defeat it in one fell swoop?"

Hearing this, Xia Muqing frowned while dodging the rain of stones.

To be honest, she felt that Xue Yao's idea was unlikely to be realized.

Not to mention that the ape in front was still howling and throwing stones without any signs of exhaustion, Xia Muqing still felt that the ape's strength had not been fully exerted.

It is a powerful dark beast king. At this moment, it only showed its defense that can withstand blows and its arm strength to throw stones everywhere, but would a real dark beast king be capable of only this?

The rain of rocks had been going on for a while, and none of the three of them were injured, but the eroding ape hadn't changed its attack method. Couldn't it see that this hurling of rocks was useless against Xia Muqing and the others?

unless……

Xia Muqing's heart trembled suddenly!

She turned around and stared at the deep crack that had been getting closer and closer to her. Her pupils contracted violently: "...No, that crack is wrong, get out of the way!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the crack suddenly fluctuated violently, and the darkness was like a huge curtain, which was blown up by the strong wind.

A terrifying aura enveloped the heavens and the earth, and the three men, along with the mysterious beasts, were all startled. Their chests pounded as if they had been struck by a heavy fist, the impact truly terrifying.

Something else is about to come out from the depths of the rift before the space is completely closed!

Not far away, the mountain orangutan, who had grabbed a handful of gravel, tilted his head, scratched his ear with his free hand, and grinned fiercely, baring his terrifying yellow fangs.

"throat?"

[Hahahaha, stupid human beastmaster. Do you think I don't have any companions?]
