Divine Beast Adventures
chapter-475

Edited by Aelryinth

The exception was none other than Zhang Che. While the mass of beastmasters were still either running along, or the more proactive ones were riding on their land mounts, Zhang Che had already summoned the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon out, flying on it together with the elemental queen directly towards the secret plane gateway.

In Zhang Che’s opinion, with his strength, there was nothing to be afraid of. Naturally it’d be more beneficial if he could enter the secret plane earlier!

“This brat…” Huang Juyun couldn’t help but shake his head and chuckle to himself when he saw Zhang Che flying on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon in such a high-profile manner. However, he agreed with Zhang Che’s actions in his heart.

As a beastmaster, one should show their strength when the time called for it. Since he possessed such great strength, why bother about how other people felt?

At the same time, the beastmasters from Hua Xia who were participating in this trip to the secret plane cast gazes of envy, jealousy, and hatred at Zhang Che, who had already flown a distance away.

“That Zhang Che is really brave. He actually dared to fly over!”

“This is the difference between us and him! As fellow mid-tier beastmasters, we’re miles behind Zhang Che when you compare us together. He can already easily stand against epic-quality exotic beasts, while we still have to loop around when we encounter a legend-quality exotic beast. Ai…”

“How dominating! Isn’t he afraid that in the off chance there is an exotic beast whose strength exceeds epic-quality in the mountains ahead? No matter how strong Zhang Che is, I don’t believe he can win against exotic beasts above epic-quality!”

“Are you for real? If there are really exotic beasts of that level, the alliance government would have eliminated them long ago, no matter the price! How could they possibly allow that kind of existence to remain on Mercury? If it went on a rampage, it could easily level a large city! That’s the kind of terrifying existence they are!”

—–

Discussions could be heard everywhere in the Hua Xia camp, while the beastmasters from other regions jumped in shock.

There was actually someone that arrogant around? Did he think he had lived too long a life and wanted to feed himself to the powerful exotic beasts here?

Since when did mid-tier beastmasters have this much guts?

Those who weren’t in the know all thought Zhang Che was acting too arrogantly, while those in the know had different thoughts in their hearts.

In the Nihong camp, the Miyazaki Clan’s members all had extremely ugly expressions on their faces as they watched Zhang Che flying on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon through the satellite’s surveillance feed.

Last time, it was precisely because Zhang Che had entrapped their descendent, leading to the series of incidents afterwards that caused the Miyazaki Clan to rapidly fall from grace as a first-rate faction. At present, they weren’t even in a stable position as a second-rate clan.

The Miyazaki Clan’s deep hatred for Zhang Che were apparent in their eyes. They wanted to command the powerful exotic beasts in the area ahead to surround Zhang Che and kill him. They wanted to see how was he going to keep acting so arrogantly!

In the Bei Mei camp, a middle-aged man with a general’s insignia on his shoulders was similarly showing a dark face. After pondering silently for a short while, he suddenly opened up his personal terminal and ordered: Tell the warriors entering the secret plane this time to kill that man, no matter what!

General Mihill originally thought that Zhang Che might not dare come to the secret plane this time. Unexpectedly, he actually showed up!

Since that was the case, he’d have him die inside the secret plane. The mid-tier beastmasters under him weren’t weak, either. If they were careful about not exposing themselves, they should be able to kill Zhang Che by ambushing him.

Naturally, the prerequisite was that his men had to run into Zhang Che in the secret plane. Otherwise, his plans, no matter how good they were, were useless.

Of course, General Mihill wasn’t worried, even if they failed. This minor loss was something he could endure.

At the same time, some of the beastmasters taken over by the supreme demon had taken notice of the flashy Zhang Che.

“This person is so strong. He’ll surely become a great threat to our demonic army in the future. Looks like we need to add another agenda to our plans on this journey into the secret plane; killing this man no matter what!”

A few clones of the supreme demon had come into contact and linked up with one another. They were now secretly preparing for the demonic army’s advance into the beast world. This trip into the secret plane was to increase their strength, and to bring more beastmasters under their control.

If they could bring more puppets under their control among the human beastmasters, the resistance from humanity would lessen when the demonic army arrived in the future.

Of course, the supreme demon’s clones had never thought of taking over someone as strong as Zhang Che. This kind of genius beastmaster usually had extremely strong mental strength. If they failed, the demon might lose one of their clones, and at the same time risk exposing themselves to the humans.

The supreme demon would never do something that was not worth it. As such, the best method was to kill off this kind of youth with great potential among the humans. That was the most optimal choice.

If the Miyazaki Clan knew about all this, they’d probably die from regret. So many people had the same objective, but the Miyazaki Clan wasn’t confident about it and didn’t dare to find trouble with Zhang Che. Perhaps they’d miss an opportunity to kill him, just like that!

——-

It went without saying that Zhang Che didn’t know all this. Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care. Those who could enter the secret plane were all mid-tier beastmasters. Who could be a threat to him?

A divine-quality subdued beast, maybe? Too bad; only high-tier beastmasters could employ them. Beastmasters below high-tier couldn’t employ them no matter how many divine-quality beasts were provided to them.

What about treasures like spiritual sword fragments?

Zhang Che would welcome them with open arms! He was thinking that the scarlet and white sword shouldn’t be at its strongest yet. If it could devour a few more spiritual sword fragments, his strength would increase greatly once more!

The Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon was extremely fast. Erupting with Mach 2 speed, Zhang Che only needed half an hour to reach the core area where the secret plane gateway was.

At that time, the other beastmasters had probably advanced a hundred kilometers or so? Zhang Che had originally thought his flying so arrogantly would provoke many powerful exotic beasts.

In the end, although he had sensed the auras of a few legend-quality exotic beasts below him, all of them pretended as if they didn’t see him, allowing Zhang Che to fly past them on the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon without resistance.

“Those spineless cowards. I wanted to kill a few high-quality exotic beasts on the way to accumulate some good materials. In the end those cowards didn’t even dare to come at me. Really…” Zhang Che sighed, shaking his head. Naturally he wouldn’t take the initiative to go hunt the powerful exotic beasts on the way. He wouldn’t do such kind deeds for others. If the powerful exotic beasts went at him, however, he wouldn’t mind killing them and earning a small fortune off of them.

(The legend-quality exotic beasts: -You freaking take us for idiots, or what? That dark blue dragon is clearly an epic-quality powerful existence! Will we be so stupid as to go find trouble with you, thinking we’ve lived too long a life or something?-)

The exotic beasts that had lived on Mercury for a long time had a much better understanding of humans than those in the beast worlds. They knew to determine whether they could afford to provoke their enemies. If they couldn’t win, they wouldn’t rush up stupidly.

If there really were those fearless exotic beasts, they would have died to other beastmasters long ago. They wouldn’t have lived until today, passing their days leisurely in the forests.

Zhang Che had flown more than half way through the one thousand kilometers distance. He thought to himself, -Looks like there wouldn’t be any troubles this time…-

Unexpectedly, just as he thought that, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from a mountain peak covered with rich vegetation ahead, spreading out to cover the surrounding dozens of kilometers.

“Hmm? There’s actually an epic-quality exotic beast here! Great!” Zhang Che wasn’t alarmed, but happy instead, immediately displaying an excited smile.

It really was a case of having a pillow sent to you just as you were feeling sleepy. He didn’t expect to have an epic-quality exotic beast on his flight route.

Despite his excitement, Zhang Che earnestly prayed inside, -But please don’t let the epic-quality exotic beast be above seven-stars, or I’ll have to run pathetically towards the secret plane gateway…-

Although Zhang Che could retreat safely even if he encountered an epic-quality exotic beast above seven-stars and enter the secret plane, he was being watched by everyone right now. It would be really embarrassing if he was sent scrambling for his life.

“Judging from the aura, the epic-quality exotic beast doesn’t seem to be above seven-stars.”

It wasn’t like Zhang Che had never seen a seven-star epic-quality exotic beast before. The seven-star epic-quality Demonic Energy Large Boar card was laying somewhere in his spatial storage. Comparing this aura, it was about on par with the Demonic Energy Large Boar’s.

In other words, this epic-quality exotic beast was around seven-stars. It was impossible for it to be eight-stars.

Zhang Che immediately relaxed, a look of anticipation on his face.

Although he wouldn’t get beast cards from killing exotic beasts on Mercury, obtaining the corpse of a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast wasn’t a bad reward, either. The value of materials from a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast wasn’t any lower than a mid-tier legend-quality beast card. They could be sold for a million purple crystal points, at the very least!

A loud, furious roar rose from the mountain forest. Immediately after, a large wolf with purplish-brown fur all over its body flew up from the dense woods below, riding the wild wind. Its deep green eyes stared at Zhang Che and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon he was riding.

As fellow epic-quality exotic beasts, how could the large wolf not display its rage when its territory was being invaded?

“Hanming, Extreme Yin Ray!” Although they were still a thousand meters apart, Zhang Che gave the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon the order to attack without hesitation.

The dragon’s powerful single-target skill, Extreme Yin Ray, could attack enemies from a thousand meters away. Zhang Che naturally wouldn’t waste such an advantage.

Upon receiving the order, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon opened its mouth and shot out a deep blue ray. In the next moment, it struck the large wolf riding on the winds, dying the fur on its body in a faint layer of deep blue.

As a fellow seven-star epic-quality exotic beast, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s single-target skill was able to cause severe damage to the large wolf. It had suffered an injury before even coming face-to-face with them.

The various factions who were observing this through the satellite were all astonished at seeing this. Since when did the attack power of this kid’s blue dragon become so strong?

Could it be that this kid has a powerful advanced beast card cultivator behind him, helping him upgrade the blue dragon’s level and quality?

As Zhang Che’s signature “subdued beast”, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s attributes were closely studied by the various factions. Everyone knew it was probably only at mid-tier legend-quality.

As a result, seeing the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s skill had surprised all of them.

He actually had another powerful epic-quality subdued beast, in addition to the three epic-quality subdued beasts Zhang Che had revealed during the arena deathmatch back then!

This young man was simply heaven-defying!

However, what was even more heaven-defying came afterwards…

After the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s Extreme Yin Ray struck the large wolf, stunning it for a moment, the dragon brought out his fastest speed and immediately arrived a hundred meters away from it in the blink of an eye.

After coming within a hundred meters of this large wolf, Zhang Che could clearly feel the surrounding air had become berserk. Invisible blades of wind slashed at them, trying to shred him and the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to pieces.

However, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s Darkfiend Cold Force Field was a defensive False Domain to begin with, in addition to his innate gift of being able to neutralize the wind resistance around him. The large wolf’s False Domain was unable to hurt Zhang Che at all.

“Slash!” Zhang Che immediately shouted calmly. A scarlet and white ray of light shot out from his brow. The scarlet and white sword light flew forth, directly streaking pass the neck of the large wolf riding the berserk wind.

The pitiful seven-star epic-quality large wolf didn’t have a great defense. Its nimbleness and speed was greatly reduced after being struck by the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon’s Extreme Yin Ray. It actually wasn’t able to dodge Zhang Che’s slash at all!

“Ao…!” a miserable howl faded away. A wide, savage wound appeared on the large wolf’s neck. Fresh crimson red blood gushed out like a fountain, raining blood in the sky.

Everyone watching this revealed astonishment on their faces. A mid-tier beastmaster was actually able to cut down a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast! What kind of terrifying combat ability was that!?

Many people felt like their views had been overturned.

Wasn’t it said that no one under high-tier beastmaster could be considered a real expert? What was it with this young man? He was actually able to inflict such a heavy injury on a high-tier epic-quality exotic beast!

Some of the people who were in the know were even more terrified. Since when could spiritual sword fragments turn into a ray of light, and their powers increase to such a terrifying degree?

This young man, who wasn’t even twenty yet, actually had multiple epic-quality subdued beasts and an extraordinary spiritual sword fragment! Could this be the legendary son of the heavens?

In Bei Mei camp, General Mihill couldn’t resist raising his eyebrows at the sight of this. Afterwards, he quickly opened up his personal terminal and changed his prior orders: This man is very powerful. Tell them to play it by ear after entering the secret plane. If it’s deemed undoable, don’t try to force it. It will be very hard for ordinary mid-tier beastmasters to have a chance at killing such a powerful person.
