Chapter 285: Sudden Strike!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

Bei Feng continued towards the Nie ancestral mansion. After the sudden tragedy, the Nie Clan had suffered tremendous losses. Of their hundred-plus core clan members, over half were dead or heavily injured!

Fortunately, Maniac Nie was fine. With him around, the Nie Clan would not be in danger of being wiped out.

Cao Weizhuang had also managed to keep his life with the help of a Xiantian Lord elder from his clan. At this time, the Nie ancestral mansion was completely gone. Large batches of martial experts were also rushing over to this place.

Obviously, they were only here for the treasures in the underground crypt. These experts were hoping to pick up something good by luck since those below the Xiantian realm did not even have the qualifications to enter the crypt.

An entire day had already passed, and the powers located nearest to the mountain had already rushed over, including the Cao Clan.

The Cao Clan’s lineup was exceptionally grand. They had three Xiantian Lords, with one at the mid stage, and two at the primary stage!

Such a lineup would be considered a formidable force anywhere in the world. Cao Weizhuang was seated with the rest of his clan, still in a bit of shock at the events of that day. At the same time, he felt a somewhat frustrated.

“That little bastard should be dead already, right? What a pity that I couldn’t kill him myself.”

Cao Weizhuang snorted coldly. It was also good that the little bastard had died. He didn’t need to dirty his hands and incur Nie Qing Cheng’s hatred. The Nie Clan had also lost a great deal of power this time, so he could likely seize the opportunity to propose a marriage contract with them!

At this time, Bei Feng and Mystic Three had also arrived. He found a random place and sat down patiently to wait. There should still be some time until the four Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts arrived.

From a bird’s-eye view, the entire area looked incredibly lively. The place was filled with bobbing black heads, and it was hard to estimate how many people were there.

This could already be considered a Grand Martial Arts Meet with experts from all over the country. Normally, how would it be possible to see so many martial practitioners gathered together?

***

Within a large underground cave somewhere, a large black Demonic Beast was fast asleep. Two long streams of hot breath roiled out of its nostrils rhythmically.

“Too slow! Too slow!”

The black Demonic Beast opened its eyes and growled, its voice reverberating about the cave endlessly.

“Blood and flesh! I need more blood and flesh!”

The black Demonic Beast crawled up from its prone position. Its huge feet stepped on a large rock, directly crushing it to pieces. The sturdy rock was like a piece of tofu under the feet of the black Demonic Beast, not even capable of withstanding it for even a moment!

“Hou!”

The black Demonic Beast extended its wings and shot out of the cave. When it came in, it had forcefully collapsed the entrance of the cave. Now, it simply slashed at the rocks with its wings, easily blasting the cave entrance open again.

The moment it appeared, the black Demonic Beast set its sight on a certain direction. There was a large amount of living creatures gathered together there, and it could distinctly feel that the blood and Qi aura there was extremely heavy to the extent that it towered into the sky!

This phenomenon was definitely caused by a large gathering of strong beings with tasty blood and flesh. However, it hesitated slightly as it looked in that direction.

That was the place where it had been trapped for so many years! Its saliva dripped steadily into the ground as it considered, forming small pits the size of bowls.

“Hou!”

A metallic roar rang out in the air. In the end, its need for food still far surpassed the discomfort it felt in its heart. Without further hesitation, it flew rapidly towards the direction it had determined.

“The target has appeared!”

A shrill alarm rang out within a military base!

A large red dot could be seen on the radar, moving at a rapid pace. In an instant, everyone hurried to their posts and began to busy themselves.

“Quickly calculate that beast’s speed, as well as the direction it’s headed towards!” a general commanded swiftly.

“Heavens! Its speed is too fast! It’s already reached two times the speed of sound… no! It’s already at three times the speed of sound! It’s going towards Qing Ling Village!” An experienced soldier exclaimed. In that moment, the entire command room fell silent to a point where one could hear a pin drop.

“Quick! Tell everyone in that direction to withdraw! In addition, lock on the missiles and strike immediately!”

The general’s face had turned pale at this point. There were currently thousands of people residing in Qing Ling Village. These were all martial experts who had come for the underground crypt. Initially, they had assumed that there was nothing to worry about since the four Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts were on their way to the location. But they had not expected that the black Demonic Beast would perform such a sudden strike!

“It’s too late, its speed is too fast. Normal missiles will be useless against it, and the other missiles need time to be armed. There’s not enough time to strike!”

Another soldier shook his head with a bitter expression.

From this, one could tell why the country gave so much support and resources to the Martial Practitioners Control Department. Most of the time, the more powerful weapons were only there as a deterrence, or would only be used in special circumstances. In times such as this, the flexibility to mobilize powerful human experts was significantly more invaluable.

At this time, the mountains surrounding Mt Qing Ling were also filled with numerous experts who had traveled from all over the country. The instant they received the warning report from the Martial Practitioners Control Department, everyone’s faces paled.

The moment the news spread that a Super Demonic Beast was flying towards them, everyone began to flee as though their lives were on the line!

An even more hilarious scene ensued as the large group of people suddenly began to flee in all directions. Some people who had not received the news were looking about in confusion, not understanding why everyone was running.

The groups of experts were not all staying close to each other. Thus, it was impossible for everyone to get the news together. The result was that some groups remained in their spots, looking at everyone run.

Some of the cleverer ones also felt that something was definitely not right with the way everyone was fleeing in a hurry. Thus, without bothering to find out what was going on, they directly fled with the rest!

The spot Bei Feng had chosen to wait in was quieter. He had chosen this spot intentionally due to there being less people in this area. However, even as the crowd began to get restless, Bei Feng had already begun to flee!

The black Demonic Beast did not rein in its aura at all as it charged towards them. As such, Bei Feng had already sensed its approach from a great distance away. Without any hesitation, he escaped with all his might!

Truthfully, with so many experts gathered together, they could actually exhaust the Super Demonic Beast to death if everyone pooled their strengths together!

However, at least half of them would perish by the time they felled the beast!

No one dared to guarantee that they would be able to survive through such a high mortality probability. Thus, everyone began to flee with all their might! One need not outrun the Demonic Beast. They only needed to outrun the person next to them!

“Hou!”

Before some people could even figure out the reason for the sudden panic, a frosty roar suddenly sounded out from the sky!

Finally, these people were jolted awake from their shock. Without further hesitation, they also began to run!

At the same time, they were cursing vehemently as they fled. Those f*ckers who got the news early had not even bothered to give a shout of warning when they ran!

A tiny black dot could already be seen far away in he clear sky, becoming bigger and bigger with rapid speed as it neared!

In no time, a huge Demonic Beast fully clad in black scales appeared in everyone’s sights, blotting out the sky with its massive wings and suppressive aura!

The thick body of the creature was streamlined like a gazelle’s, and a pair of huge golden eyes looked on in interest as the tiny ants below it fled in all directions.

The black Demonic Beast turned its head in a random direction and suddenly drew in a large breath! Hundreds of black light beams shot out of its mouth, quickly enveloping the experts fleeing before it!

The black light beams looked like they would dissipate with the lightest breeze, but they were actually surprisingly stable!

The experts caught in the path of the black beams had cultivations which ranged from Light Jing to Evolved Jing. However, not a single one of them was able to free themselves from the black beams!

The black Demonic Beast grinned evilly, revealing rows of uneven teeth which seemed disproportionate with its body. They were only about ten centimeters long, and as thick as an infant’s wrists. However, there were actually three rows of such teeth filling its mouth!

Rough curved spikes filled the tongue of the beast, causing one to shudder with fear just looking at it!
