Chapter 1289: Class 10 Xuanhuang Beast (Two)

The temperature surged as faint strands of yellow mist appeared around Jian Chen . He had entered the thick layer of clouds and his vision became obscured . Visibility was extremely low, and even the usage of his soul became more and more restricted .

At this moment, Jian Chen suddenly froze . He suddenly swayed and reappeared over ten meters away like he had teleported .

Bang! As soon as Jian Chen reappeared, a red blur landed where he was standing before, and with a violent sound, rocks were shattered and thrown into the air along with dust .

Jian Chen became extremely stern . He had failed to see what that red blur was, nor did he learn what had suddenly attacked him . If he had not maintained his vigilance and dodged instinctually, he probably would have suffered a lot just then .

However, before Jian Chen could think about it some more, his expression suddenly changed . All his muscles tightened as his eyes stared right before him . He felt a terrifyingly powerful presence lock onto him . Not only did Jian Chen find it suffocating, he felt his body become as heavy as a mountain . Even his movements became limited .

The presence was so tremendous that it basically froze every inch of space around him, almost trapping him through the control of space .

“Beyond Saint Emperor!” Jian Chen was shocked . Even though he had yet to see the appearance of the Xuanhuang beast, he had determined that it had reached the Origin realm just from its presence alone .

This was because he had slain many Class 9 Xuanhuang beasts already and understood their strength . It was impossible for a beast at that level to give off so much pressure .

“This Xuanhuang beast has already reached the level of Heavenly Immortals . Master, you’re not it’s opponent . Run!” The sword spirits’ voice rang out in Jian Chen’s head as well .

Jian Chen rapidly began to retreat without a second thought . He leaped down the mountain . The Origin realm and Sainthood were two major realms of cultivation, so the difference of strength was extremely great . Jian Chen was confident he could kill any Class 9 Xuanhuang beasts, but that confidence was not the same against Class 10 Xuanhuang beasts .

Jian Chen descended along a steep, curvy clifface, dropping several thousand meters in just a few seconds . He had left the thick layer of clouds in the sky and his visibility finally returned to him . However, he dared not to relax at all . Not only did the vast presence remain locked on him, but it was also growing stronger .

“Oh no, that Class 10 Xuanhuang beast’s chasing me right now, and it’s getting closer and closer,” Jian Chen could feel how bad the situation was inside . He suddenly kicked off a great tree beside him, immediately shooting off into the distance like a loose arrow .

Due to the restrictions of the mysterious force, flying was basically impossible in the Xuanhuang Microcosm, so Jian Chen could only glide like a bird while using the Illusory Flash .

Hiss! At this moment, an ear-piercing sound rang out from behind . A thousand-meter-long python emerged from the thick layer of clouds and appeared in front of Jian Chen . Its body radiated a red light, which seemed to fuse with the surroundings . It slithered forward as its tongue flickered in pursuit of Jian Chen . It was quite faster than him .

When the red python first came out, it was nine thousand meters away from Jian Chen, but that distance was reduced to six thousand in less than a minute before shrinking to three thousand . In the end, it was only a few hundred meters away from Jian Chen .

Jian Chen’s heart slightly sank . The terrain was complicated, which limited his strength . Meanwhile, the python behind him had lived here for many years already . It moved through the mountains and forests like a fish through water . It was impossible for Jian Chen to escape since the distance between them was decreasing .

Jian Chen ended up stopping . Chaotic Force surged from his right hand before condensing into a dark sword of energy . Resplendent and pure sword Qi was present in the Chaotic Force, mixing with it and, hence, increasing his strength . He had given up on the Emperor Armament long ago . After reaching Sword Origin, the Emperor Armament only became more damaged, and even if he used it, it would not increase his strength at all .

“Since I can’t shake off this Class 10 Xuanhuang beast, I’ll fight it . I may not be able to defeat it, but I can see just how terrifying existences that have surpassed Saint Emperors are and use this opportunity to gain a rough understanding of them,” Jian Chen thought . He was confident that killing this Class 10 Xuanhuang beast would not be easy .

At this moment, the giant python opened its mouth and a wave of flames surged out . They shot toward Jian Chen with extreme heat, burning all the vegetation that they came across to a crisp .

Jian Chen was shocked inside . He could feel that the fire from the python was even more powerful than Hong Lian’s flames . Although Hong Lian was a Scorching Divine Phoenix and held supreme power over fire, the python’s flames were much more terrifying than her flames due to such a great disparity in strength .

Jian Chen used the Illusory Flash to safely avoid the flames despite his surprise . He felt that he was rather fortunate that he was only facing a Class 10 Xuanhuang beast who lacked any abilities . If it was a true Origin realm expert, he would not be able to counterattack at all .

Jian Chen quickly approached the python after dodging its flames . Leaping over ten meters into the air, he arrived above the python’s head and stabbed down as hard as he could with the sword he had condensed .

The next moment, Jian Chen’s eyes silently narrowed, because his full-powered attack only managed to leave an insignificant scratch a finger deep . It could not even be counted as a wound .

“What a terrifying body . It’s probably more than ten times tougher than the bodies of Class 9 Xuanhuang beasts . Probably only Origin realm experts can heavily injure it,” Jian Chen was astounded . The toughness of the Class 10 Xuanhuang beast had greatly exceeded anything he had expected . Even with his mental preparations, he was still shocked .

At this moment, a terrifying force appeared . The python viciously shook its head, flinging Jian Chen far off into the distance . He crashed into a dozen thick trees .

Jian Chen immediately felt like all his bones had become dislocated with just that . Every inch of his body throbbed painfully . If it were not for his Chaotic Body, he would have been reduced to a smear of flesh .

Jian Chen only managed to stabilize himself after flying for many kilometers . He then began to flee without even looking back . From just that momentary contact, he had already gained a rough understanding of the strength of Class 10 Xuanhuang beasts . They were undefeatable .

However, Jian Chen was still unable to move faster than the python due to the terrain . He was caught again without long .

“Master, you can’t move in a straight line, or there’s no way you’ll move faster than it . At the same time, all the Xuanhuang beats in the elemental mountains have their own territories . This Heavenly Immortal Xuanhuang beast is probably the supreme ruler in the fire-attribute region, so master won’t be able to break away successfully if you stay here . We just happen to be quite close to the earth-attribute region . Let’s go over there . That’s the only way we can escape this Xuanhuang beast,” Zi Ying’s voice materialized in Jian Chen’s head . Raising his head to look, there just happened to be the yellow, earth-attribute region several dozen kilometers away, so he immediately changed direction and ran toward it in a zig-zagging fashion .

The distance took Jian Chen less than a minute to traverse . He arrived at the boundary of the fire-attribute region very quickly and was about to cross over .

The python in pursuit immediately became flustered when it saw that Jian Chen was about to flee from its territory . It spat out streams of fire, clearly not planning to let Jian Chen off easily . This was because the presence of Chaotic Force on Jian Chen made it drool . It was on the same level as the Xuanhuang beast, so it had a vague feeling that its strength would increase a lot if it managed to consume the insignificant existence .

Several dozen streams of fire formed a great net in front of Jian Chen . Although Jian Chen had managed to avoid most of the streams, he was still struck by one . The unimaginable heat immediately turned his clothes to ash . Even with his fourth layer Chaotic Body, he found it difficult to endure, having become bright-red from the heat . He shed an entire layer of his skin, which was excruciating .

Jian Chen gritted his teeth as he bitterly endured . He used the Illusory Flash to avoid the net of fire and finally made it out of the fire-attribute region and into the earth-attribute region .

The python did not follow him over . It stopped at the boundary and stared at Jian Chen, unwilling to give up on its prey . Its tongue flickered constantly as it produced ear-piercing hisses .

Although the python did not follow him over, Jian Chen did not stop . He endured the burning pain all over him as he quickly fled into a forest .

The python remained at the boundary for quite some time, but it did not cross it in the end . It returned in gloom and full of regret .

At this moment, Jian Chen currently sat beneath a large tree . His burnt skin was being shed part by part before being replaced by new skin . Although he was severely burned, it was nothing that the terrifying recovery of the Chaotic Force couldn’t handle .

Ten minutes later, Jian Chen stood up full of vitality . He pulled a new set of clothes from his Space Ring and changed into them . He had already made a full recovery from his wounds, but he was as bald as an egg . His flowing, long hair had all been burnt to a crisp .
