Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 637 - 426: The Terror of the Great Success Celestial Spirit Body (Double-Length) (Part 2)

Chapter 637: Chapter 426: The Terror of the Great Success Celestial Spirit Body (Double-Length) (Part 2)

Gu Feng’s eyes were wild with madness as he and Gu Zheng, in perfect synchronization, issued their final command.

The colossal wings of the two Phoenixes fully extended, releasing a long, resounding cry as all of the ghostly purple flames furiously compressed inward, and compressed again, until they transformed into two spears honed to the utmost extreme, which shot instantaneously at Qin Shaoshao, who seemed too powerless to dodge.

In an instant, Qin Shaoshao raised a hand, and the Great Forest Bastion emerged once more, but shattered and disintegrated upon contact like paper.

The destructive flames utterly engulfed Qin Shaoshao’s figure.

"Hahaha! It’s done! The Celestial Spirit Body is finally dead!"

Gu Feng laughed maniacally, yet deep within his laughter lay a thread of exhaustion and dread that even he himself hadn’t realized.

Gu Zheng also exhaled deeply, his taut nerves finally relaxing. This battle was truly perilous, and the cost was horrific.

However, just as they relaxed their spirits, readying to turn around and deal with the aftermath at the Spirit Academy—

An overwhelming sense of crisis suddenly coiled around their hearts like a venomous snake, paralyzing them!

They whipped around, their pupils instantly contracting to the size of pinpoints!

They saw that amidst the still-dissipating energy shockwaves, at the center of the gradually fading light and flames, Qin Shaoshao still hovered quietly in place, the green light swirling around her, unharmed, not even a corner of her clothing disturbed.

Her calm gaze still rested upon them, as if it had never moved.

"No... impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

Gu Feng’s voice was distorted with utter terror.

Gu Zheng’s hair stood on end as he suddenly realized something, frantically looking down at the battlefield below...

What he saw chilled him to the bone, as if he had fallen into an ice cave!

The figures engaged in combat below, the explosions, the clashes of energy...

Everything was endlessly repeating the same actions and scenes!

It was like a predetermined illusion that was looping again and again!

Time seemed mired here, or rather, they had never truly escaped the cycle!

"We... we are still inside the Illusion Realm! From the very beginning!!"

Gu Feng finally realized, letting out a despairing scream.

Massive fear seized his heart at once, nearly suffocating him.

They had burned their Essence Blood, fought desperately, even thought they had succeeded...

Yet all of it was a solo act played within the dream woven by the opponent!

In reality, they had likely been standing motionless like puppets all along.

Just at that moment when their minds faltered and their perceptions were completely overturned...

"Pfft!"

A subtle but unbearably crisp sound of something sharp piercing flesh rang out abruptly.

Gu Zheng’s body suddenly stiffened, all movements and thoughts coming to a sudden halt.

He unbelievingly lowered his head.

There, a fresh green, tender as a new bud branch had silently pierced through his Protective Divine Light, accurately emerging from the center of his chest where his heart was.

A drop of red blood slowly dripped from the tip of the branch.

There was no intense pain, only a chilling and void sensation as if life was being swiftly withdrawn through that branch.

He struggled to raise his head, looking towards the distant always-calm green figure, his vision already starting to blur and scatter.

"The Great Success... Celestial Spirit Body..."

"Truly... terrifying... to this extent..."

Gu Feng was the same; their hearts were pierced through.

The horror and grimace on their faces were frozen, like evil spirits encased in ice.

They had roamed free all their lives, yet had never encountered such bizarre and unfathomable methods.

They were elders of the Divine Race, the pinnacle power of this world, yet were so effortlessly drawn into an illusion by the opponent?

Yes, an Illusion Realm!

From the moment Qin Shaoshao’s profound green eyes rippled slightly, perhaps they had already fallen into an invisible net.

The supposedly earth-shattering confrontation, the perilous evasions, the final "devouring" flames explosion of Qin Shaoshao...

All were illusions constructed to extreme realism by her magnificent Spiritual Power!

They had burned their Essence Blood, launched a life-and-death attack, thinking they had seized victory, yet were merely dancing in vain within the dream woven by the opponent, performing for the real audience—themselves alone.

"Hahaha..."

Their final thought, smothered in infinite regret and terror, completely submerged in eternal darkness.

Beside him, Gu Feng witnessed this horrifying scene, his guts wrenched with fear, attempting to cry out but finding he could no longer make a sound.

Despair became the last color in his consciousness.

....

The entire process of Gu Zheng and Gu Feng’s death was silent, yet more heart-stopping than any earth-shattering explosion.

There was a moment of dead silence on the battlefield.

Whether it was the frenzied attacking Ancient Clan warriors or the Spirit Academy disciples and allies desperately resisting, they couldn’t help but stop their actions, staring in shock at the sky.

Two elders of the Demi Immortal realm of the Divine Race... just died like that?

Died in such a strange, utterly inexplicable way!

They didn’t even see how Qin Shaoshao made her move.

This was completely beyond their comprehension.

Their pupils were filled with fear and confusion.

"Wha... what’s going on?" 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"The elders... have died?"

In the Ancient Clan camp, panic spread rapidly like a plague, and morale instantly plummeted to the bottom.

Many Ancient Clan People had wandering eyes, already harboring thoughts of retreat.

The sudden collapse of their backbone made them lose all fighting spirit and courage.

In stark contrast to their panic-stricken bewilderment was the surging excitement and enlightenment in the hearts of those informed on the Spirit Academy side.

Great Elder and Lin Chen saw clearly, to a certain extent, Qin Shaoshao was truly unrivaled among her peers.

She obtained the Tree Ancestor’s Dao fruit, stepping into the Half-Immortal Realm, and at this level, Spiritual Power must be extremely terrifying.

This kind of killing without trace, playing opponents in the palm of her hand, is what truly despairing power domination is about!

Lin Chen looked distantly at the lone green figure in the sky, yet felt no joy.

Although Gu Feng and the others were dead, the Tree Ancestor was also gone.

Just as panic spread among the Ancient Clan army, formations began to loosen, and some were even quietly retreating, a powerful voice rang out:

"Spirit Academy disciples! Warriors of Thunder City! Guild Hunters!"

Great Elder Yu Xiu’s roar filled with Divine Power and endless hatred exploded like thunder, instantly spreading across the battlefield.

"The elders of the Ancient Clan have been slayed!"

"Today, do not let a single one escape! Avenge the fallen souls!"

"Kill!!!"

The final cry of "Kill", imbued with all suppressed humiliation, anger, and bloodlust, completely ignited the fighting spirit of all survivors!

"Avenge the fallen!"

"Kill them all!"

The brief silence was shattered, replaced by the storm-like shouts of the Spirit Academy and its allies!

The defense line that had been struggling to sustain itself instantly transformed into an unstoppable torrent of revenge, launching a full-scale counterattack against the Ancient Clan army whose morale was collapsing and filled with panic!

Beat the drowning dog!

At this moment, the Ancient Clan, having lost their highest command, were scattered in mind, only thinking of escaping, with not a hint of fighting spirit remaining?

Instantly they were beaten to retreat step by step, suffering heavy losses.

It was a one-sided chase and reckoning.

Above the sky, Qin Shaoshao quietly overlooked the below’s brutal chase, extending her hand to directly throw down countless leaves.

These leaves flew towards the Ancient Clan People like phantoms, toppling them wherever they went.

Her gaze, instead, fleetingly swept over the blood-soaked ground below, pausing slightly where the Phoenix Blood still emitted faint energy, her delicate brows discreetly furrowing.

But at this moment, no one noticed her subtle change in expression.

All attention was focused on pursuing the remaining Ancient Clan soldiers.

The battle continued for almost another half-hour.

Finally, when the last of the resistant Ancient Clan elders was personally slain by Great Elder and President Chen Ming, this unexpected invasion war concluded with the Spirit Academy and its allies’ bloody victory.

The setting sun slashed with blood, illuminating the field of corpses and shattered mountains and rivers.

Spirit Academy disciples collapsed to the ground, many embracing and crying, filled with both the joy of victory and the sorrow of losing friends and family.

Great Elder Yu Xiu looked at the devastated homeland, tears in his aged eyes, yet he forced himself to begin directing the aid of the wounded and accounting for the losses.

However, just as everyone thought it was finally over and they could breathe a little.

Suspended in mid-air, Qin Shaoshao’s face suddenly changed, lowering her head to look sharply at a certain battlefield wreckage below and said, "Great Elder, could you let the others disperse first?"

Great Elder and Lin Chen paused, looking at Qin Shaoshao in confusion.

But out of trust in Qin Shaoshao, they still waved their hands to have the others leave first, leaving only Xu Pingzhi and Chen Ming.
