Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 684 - 447: The Terrifying Black Shadow (Part 3)
He forcefully suppressed the urge to act, but his gaze remained firmly locked on the shadow, with spiritual power in his right arm ready to unleash, maintaining highest vigilance.
In this suffocating dead silence, an elderly and hoarse voice directly echoed in Lin Chen and Lee Zhen’s hearts, though they hadn’t seen the shadow speak:
"That ox... is on you."
The moment these words were spoken, Lin Chen and Lee Zhen were taken aback, their eyes filled with incredulous bewilderment!
This way of communicating through thoughts without speaking, was somewhat like the Tree Ancestor.
Could it be that the other party isn’t human?
A Spirit Beast in human form?
"You’re talking about Xiaobai?"
Lin Chen instinctively responded, trying to confirm, but his heart was already in turmoil.
Since Xiaobai landed on the island, it had been in the Beast Taming Space sleeping, never revealing itself to anyone!
This person... can he even see through his Beast Taming Space at a glance?
Thinking of this, Lin Chen could only feel a chill surge from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!
"I do have an Ox-Type Spirit Beast..."
Lin Chen suppressed the horror in his heart, spoke cautiously, not daring to conceal anything.
He understood, before such an existence, playing any tricks would be foolish.
"I want to see it."
The elderly voice once again echoed in their minds, carrying an undeniable implication.
Lin Chen’s thoughts raced.
The other party couldn’t possibly be looking for Xiaobai, so it must be looking for the Demon Bull?
The Demon Bull was a being from the Ancient God-Demon Period, long since perished...
To recognize the true form of the Demon Bull...
Then this shadow’s identity...
An absurd and terrifying speculation involuntarily emerged in Lin Chen’s mind, causing his heart to skip a beat!
Could it be?!
Is this shadow... an ancient existence from the past, even from the same era as the Demon Bull?!
Though scared out of his wits, Lin Chen didn’t dare to delay.
With a thought, amidst the flickering light, Xiaobai, deeply asleep, appeared on the ground.
The shadow’s amber yellow eyes swept over Xiaobai, releasing a cold laugh whose meaning was difficult to fathom, the sound reverberating directly in Lin Chen and Lee Zhen’s minds:
"Who would’ve thought... to have fallen so low."
Before the voice faded, without any visible movement, a barely discernible faint light scattered from his hunched figure, gently brushing past Xiaobai.
The next moment, a sudden mutation occurred!
"Moo——!"
A bossy ox roar, as if from ancient wildlands, resonated fiercely from Xiaobai’s body!
Though it was just a moment, Lin Chen and Lee Zhen clearly saw, above Xiaobai, a gigantic Demon Bull phantom with monstrous Demonic Qi flash and vanish!
That terrifying presence, although existing for just an instant, seemed to shake the entire cave.
It was the Demon Bull!
Except the Demon Bull phantom vanished in an instant, the shadow seemed deep in thought, the distorted light around him subtly fluctuating.
Several breaths later, he slowly lifted his head, his icy yellow eyes once again focused on Lin Chen.
"Kid..." the elderly voice sounded, "Refining the Divine and Demonic Power of Ancestral Phoenix isn’t so simple."
"Go find some Ancestral Ox bones, brew it into a foundation-building medicinal soup, it can help stabilize its foundation, speed up fusion, otherwise... with your Spirit Beast’s bloodline foundation, wanting to fully digest it is as hard as reaching the sky, even risking backlash."
Ancestral Ox bones?
Lin Chen’s heart tightened.
Ancestral Ox, possessing an extremely thin ancient Divine Bull bloodline, is exceedingly rare, this isn’t an easy task to accomplish.
But the other party was clearly guiding him, directly pointing out Xiaobai’s current critical issue.
Lin Chen didn’t dare to neglect, hastily bowed respectfully: "Thank you, senior, for your guidance!"
The shadow did not respond further, just as abruptly as he appeared, his indistinct hunched figure seemed to meld into the shadows, flickering slightly, before completely vanishing from sight, leaving no trace as if never present.
In the cave, only Lin Chen, Lee Zhen, and Xiaobai, still asleep, remained.
The two exchanged glances, seeing the lingering shock and disbelief in each other’s eyes.
