Chapter 823: Aggrieved Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Rong Shengyi and Yu Zhenming’s confident smiles froze on their faces.
How could there be so many God-tier familiars?!
One couldn’t just breed God-tier familiars with resources. Of course, it was another matter if one had access to premium treasures, but those treasures were even rarer than breeding a God-tier familiar.
The most important factor for breeding a God-tier familiar was its gift. The familiar’s natural gift was critical.
Gao Peng turned his head and said cooly, “You two go, too.”
“Come!” Fatty Big Sea roared, stabbing its arms into the ground, then making a ripping motion. With a rumble, the sound of tearing came from the earth. The ground before them was instantly split in two, leaving a deep canyon between Rong Shengyi and Yu Zhenming.
Fatty Big Sea took a leap, its strong arms slamming down like two giant shooting stars.
Space was distorted, giving off a groan due to the heavy burden.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast raised its head. “Time Pivot.”
Everything within a hundred-yard radius of the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast was frozen, including Fatty Big Sea, who happened to be in the area. Fatty Big Sea kept its diving position in mid-air, each vein in its eyes especially vivid.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast vanished in place.
A sturdy fist struck Fatty Big Sea’s abdomen.
It didn’t make a sound, but Gao Peng clearly saw Fatty Big Sea’s abdominal muscles cave inwards before Fatty Big Sea flew backward!
With a series of booms, Fatty Big Sea crashed through a large part of the forest.
Gao Peng frowned. This time ability was crazy. He had seen the Grand Jade Heavenly Beast use this skill before and knew it could freeze everything within a large region, but the stronger the opponent, the more it depleted the user’s powers.
It couldn’t freeze time against an opponent that was too much stronger than itself.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast was the evolution of the Grand Jade Heavenly Beast. It perfectly inherited the Grand Jade Heavenly Beast’s time freezing abilities, but strengthened them further.
The most important change was that the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast could freely control the Time Pivot’s range, which was the most important thing.
Controlling the range of Time Pivot meant it had nearly infinite possibilities, allowing it to use this ability more nimbly and conveniently.
Gao Peng thought for a moment, then sent out Goldie to join Fatty Big Sea.
When fighting against this type of unsolvable assassin with time abilities, if there wasn’t a method to tackle the time skill, then the best method was to send a thick-skinned warrior to bear the force of the attacks.
“It’s fine if you punch me 100 times, but if you get punched by me once, then sorry, you will know what pain feels like,” thought Goldie determinedly.
“Get out!” The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast growled, looking at Goldie, who was charging at it with a giant axe. It sensed the strong Metal precept on it and didn’t dare to take the attack.
Its body flashed and appeared behind Goldie in the next second. Giant fists slammed down on Goldie’s bald head.
Goldie’s rigid head made the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast’s palms numb.
What a solid head!
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast groaned secretly, then took out its divine artifact spear.
“Your head might be tough, but I don’t believe it can be tougher than a divine artifact spear,” it thought viciously.
But at that moment, an ocean whirlpool condensed in the space behind it, its strong attraction pulling the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast backward. The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast staggered and could barely hold its ground.
“I think I found your weakness,” Fatty Big Sea sneered. Time Pivot could only freeze objects, not rules, which meant that as long as one stood outside the range of its precept, one’s attacks would be effective.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast turned around, expanding the region of Time Pivot so that it covered Fatty Big Sea as well.
The next moment, Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast vanished again. “Die!”
The tip of the platinum spear gave off a cold glint.
The slice was audible when the spear pierced through Fatty Big Sea’s head.
In a moment of crisis, the Engulfment Godhood in Fatty Big Sea’s brain radiated its divine rays. Fatty Big Sea was enveloped by a black hole.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast was bewildered; why couldn’t it pull out its weapon?
It tugged hard on the weapon, but the platinum spear was stuck in the black hole.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast cried out in rage.
It wanted to punch Fatty Big Sea, but looking at the black hole in front of it, a sense of danger prevented it from landing its fists.
It jumped aside, appearing behind Goldie.
Accompanied by a series of thumps, Goldie became a target.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast’s speed wasn’t much compared to others of the same tier, but because of its strong stature, each punch carried a heavy weight.
Goldie’s body gave off a purple light after receiving every two punches.
Then the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast could feel that when it landed the next punch, the duck seemed to have gotten harder…
Looking at its reddened fists, the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast fell into thought.
It stabbed Goldie’s eyes, kicked its butt, and attacked any possible weak spots on its body.
The result was that Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast’s hands hurt even more.
…
Compared to the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast, Rong Shengyi’s Tempered Sword Grass was even more aggrieved.
As a somewhat rare Flora God, Tempered Sword Grass was one of Rong Shengyi’s aces.
Countless air blades circled it, and it had super-strong offensive and destructive power, respectable at both offense and defense.
But at that moment, under the joint attack of Da Zi, Flowing Light, and Silly, it could only defend itself passively.
Flamy was still at the ancestral grounds of the Bi Fang Clan, while Dumby couldn’t come in such a short time and was still training under the Ghoul God Death Master.
Silly had broken through God-tier two days earlier.
This lazy guy could have broken through with Goldie and the rest long ago, but it had been slacking. It finally acquiesced to breaking through God-tier at Gao Peng’s urging.
Silly used Spatial Rule to transfer all of Tempered Sword Grass’s attacks, then used other spatial abilities to trap it. On the other side, Da Zi used Thunder Rule to attack the target to its heart’s content. As for Flowing Light… it was waiting for an opportunity on the sidelines.
Nine hundred ninety-nine air blades surrounded Tempered Sword Grass’s surface. They could be used to attack or defend.
However, they weren’t very effective under Thunder Rule’s blanket attacks.
Time passed second by second, and Tempered Sword Grass gradually withered, signs of charring appearing on its grass blades.
Another blast of low-rumbling thunder could be heard.
Tempered Sword Grass was injured to the point of bleeding sap.
Its stem was nearly cut in half!
Upon seeing the unfavorable situation, it was ready to escape, but the moment it showed signs of leaving, Silly transported it back with Spatial Rule. Tempered Sword Grass merely spun in place the entire time.
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast stopped punching, because it realized it seemed unable to continue hitting the guy in front of it…
It was too hard.
It didn’t remember the last time it had felt this feeling.
The last time it had faced such a strong opponent was before it became a God.
Silently withdrawing its right hand, the Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast lowered its head to look at its fists that were covered in cracks, then at the frozen duck before it. It took a long look, wanting to carve the duck’s face into its mind.
Then it tried to pull out its divine artifact spear, yet it still couldn’t…
The Jade Emperor Heavenly Beast took a deep breath, turned around, and left decisively.
All that ran through its mind was “I don’t want it anymore!”
