Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 570 - 362: The Celestial Bear Emerges

The closer to the city center, the more terrifying the pressure becomes.

Even Xu Pingzhi, preparing to enter the central city area, felt it was difficult to approach.

"What on earth is this pressure?" Xu Pingzhi swallowed hard.

There wasn’t just one source, but two.

At this moment, Liu Jin and others followed up, discovering many people and Spirit Beasts had directly fainted on the ground.

This scene made them even more alarmed.

Just the pressure could cause someone to pass out.

"I suggest you don’t go any further," a voice rang out, and the three turned their heads, realizing it was Qin Shaoshao.

"Senior, do you know what’s inside..." Xu Pingzhi inquired.

Qin Shaoshao’s spiritual power was far more potent than theirs, and his level was much higher too.

"I can’t perceive it, but it’s very dangerous inside—we can’t handle it," Qin Shaoshao stated bluntly.

The three swallowed hard.

Since Qin Shaoshao said that, they naturally dared not act recklessly.

Looking again at that place, it was where the Thunder Emperor resided.

Just as the four were watching, a bolt of black lightning suddenly streaked down, followed by a figure glowing with blue lightning soaring up into the sky. Its appearance made the whole sky seem to dim.

It seemed to be wholly composed of energy, flickering with black lightning, yet it gripped a massive skull in one hand, crushing it instantly.

"Bear!"

All four saw clearly.

That bear glanced at the four of them but didn’t strike; instead, it moved its bear claws, and with that, the massive skull vanished in an instant.

Meanwhile, the world also turned calm, and the suffocating aura that reached its peak disappeared.

"Celestial... Celestial Bear?!"

"Could it be..."

Numerous thoughts flashed across Xu Pingzhi’s mind, but at this moment, they all shared the same idea:

Bear King celestial tribulation!

But how many years ago was the tribulation immortal legend?

After waiting for nearly half a minute, they finally flew over and landed in the mansion, yet the mansion remained intact without any change.

It wasn’t until they approached the black water pool that they saw two bodies lying there.

It was Jack and Bruce.

Xu Pingzhi seemed to understand something at this moment. He glanced at the dark pool and then said to Liu Jin and the others: "Investigate this matter."

"Okay."

The two nodded, realizing that this matter concerned Thunder City and must not be neglected.

Xu Pingzhi then turned back to Qin Shaoshao, saying: "Senior, I hope this matter remains confidential."

Qin Shaoshao didn’t say much, just nodded and turned to leave.

Then Liu Jin asked: "Was that truly the tribulation immortal?"

"I don’t know." Xu Pingzhi frowned, puzzled, and said, "But in the Thunder City legend regarding immortals, there’s only that one..."

With these words, the three fell into silence.

.....

Xu Pingzhi instructed them to stay and investigate the matter while he returned to the venue to preside over the situation.

Even if it truly was the tribulation immortal, the matter must not be exposed.

Thunder City still harbors an Immortal Beast, which can elevate the city’s status, but it’s definitely not a good thing.

The appearance of an Immortal Beast could bring about dreadful turbulence.

Such a storm would be impossible for ordinary people to withstand, even for their three major families.

Xu Pingzhi felt anxious along the way, his intuition suggesting that was indeed the tribulation immortal.

Yet hadn’t the tribulation immortal long since assimilated into the Tao?

The books of Thunder City mention records of the tribulation immortal assimilating into the Tao.

Xu Pingzhi returned to the venue where discussions were buzzing below, and many sensed the commotion due to the large disturbance.

Though the distance was far, they might not see the battle scene.

Just after sitting down, some distinguished guests stood up to ask: "City Lord Xu, has something happened?"

Xu Pingzhi didn’t deny but replied:

"We’ve apprehended some foreigners causing trouble."

"Foreigners?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone believed it.

Yet Xu Pingzhi hadn’t lied; the scene suggests it must have been foreigners causing trouble.

Then Xu Pingzhi added: "Please continue to watch; I have people handling it. Apologies for the disturbance."

The crowd bowed and turned their attention back to the competition.

Nevertheless, Xu Pingzhi’s thoughts had already wandered afar...

Why did the vanished Immortal Beast suddenly appear?

And what was that enormous skull?

....

Lin Chen didn’t know what occurred outside, but he had deduced that the first round could be won effortlessly with his fishing strategy.

Yet for the second round, everyone had grown wise, and it wouldn’t be as easy.

For the second round, strength would likely be the key.

Lin Chen took out paper and pen, sketching a map and marking locations.

An X marked the places already visited.

The second round of lightning came quickly, only 18 hours apart.

"That was quick."

Lin Chen commented, gazing up at the sky.

He hadn’t expected a bolt of black lightning to strike afar, startling him.

"Is Thunder City’s lightning always this terrifying?" Lin Chen sweated.

Yet he didn’t know that Xu Pingzhi outside saw this scene and frowned slightly.

What’s going on?

His family’s three major clans often enter the balanced space, but they’ve never seen black lightning.

While pondering, the audience below started cheering.

Because the second round had begun.

The contestants on the field were also getting excited, rushing towards new areas left unexplored.

This time near Lin Chen was a female Beastmaster, in first place, rushing to a plain area and seeing dense clusters of lightning flowers, her eyes lighting up like bulbs.

"Struck gold!"

"I’ll just take some and leave quickly."

She had already planned her strategy, knowing she couldn’t fight, so she would steal and run.

She immediately moved forward, swiftly plucking one lightning flower after another without stopping.

The audience watched anxiously, knowing others were starting to approach.

Suddenly, someone shouted: "What is that?"

The crowd followed the gaze and saw a shocking scene.

They saw where the female beastmaster had plucked, the soil began to bulge up in clumps as if something was emerging.

This eerie scene made their skin crawl, and the next instant, a piercing scream echoed.

It was the female beastmaster!

"That bastard’s grabbing my leg! How disgusting!" the female beastmaster shouted while looking down; the next moment, she felt utter despair.

She saw a sharp claw resembling a scythe.

Ka~~

In almost no time, she saw her foot severing, spraying a torrent of blood, and she felt intense pain only then.

"Ah!!!"

Her screams resonated in the sky, echoing countless times.

The woman reacted swiftly, immediately pulling out a space token and crushing it.

However, the next moment brought despair as she was still in the same place.

Meanwhile, from the earth below, a series of bone-chilling figures began to emerge!
