Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas-Chapter 476 - 422: Nirvana Slays the Demon Spirit
Chu Chen listened to the conversation between the two beasts and couldn’t help but show a bitter smile. Ever since the four little guys learned to talk, he had ranked them.
The eldest was naturally Lei Yao, the second was Nirvana, the third was Shadow Kill, and the fourth was Cage.
Their speaking styles also differed. Lei Yao indeed had the demeanor of an elder, speaking and acting with stability.
Nirvana was the good-natured one, Shadow Kill was more cold, and as for Cage, it was simply a disgrace to the Dragon Race, as it turned out to be a chatterbox.
To allow Nirvana to fight peacefully, Chu Chen directly took Lei Yao back.
The Shadow Demon was naturally furious at this, but as Nirvana held on relentlessly, it could only fight against Nirvana.
Despite the broken pincers, Nirvana was unfazed and continued to charge at the Shadow Demon.
But what greeted it was a whip tail, followed by a dull "thud" sound.
Nirvana was sent flying back dozens of feet, its thick insect armor shattered, leaving a huge wound on its body.
The Shadow Demon glanced at Nirvana dismissively and once again charged towards Chu Chen.
In the eyes of the Shadow Demon, Nirvana, being only at King Level Second Rank, was not worthy of being its opponent.
Su Zixuan frowned slightly as she watched the Shadow Demon charge again.
If not for Chu Chen’s instructions, she would have already killed this clueless Star Beast.
Chu Chen, however, was unbothered. He raised his hand and took out a broken horn from the Spatial Ring.
This broken horn was something he had exchanged from the Alliance’s treasury, and after having someone appraise it, he discovered that it was actually a fragment of a Divine Treasure.
This time, it was the perfect opportunity to test the power of this broken horn against the Shadow Demon.
Chu Chen infused the horn with his own Soul Power, immediately sensing a vast space within it.
The space was filled with thick thunder slurry, which slowly surged out under the guidance of the Soul Power.
In an instant, the broken horn became enveloped in a dense Power of Thunder, with Thunder Serpents coiling around it.
Upon seeing this, the Shadow Demon’s gaze turned solemn, clearly sensing the dangerous aura emanating from the broken horn.
Chu Chen aimed the horn at the sky, and a bolt of thunder shot straight towards the Yunxiao, followed by a thunderous "boom".
A massive bolt of thunder, a meter thick, came crashing down towards the Shadow Demon.
The Shadow Demon dared not take it lightly and immediately gathered a pitch-black, semi-circular Defense Shield above its head.
The thunder heavily struck the Defense Shield, producing a crisp cracking sound.
The semi-circular Defense Shield shattered instantly, and most of the thunder’s power was dissipated, yet streaks of thunder surged directly into the Shadow Demon. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
"Roar!"
The Shadow Demon let out a cry of pain as the Thunder Serpents crawled over its body, relentlessly tormenting it.
Moreover, it was paralyzed, unable to move an inch.
Chu Chen nodded with satisfaction. This attack had consumed twenty percent of his Soul Power, with a power comparable to that of a Star Beast at Emperor Level Second Rank.
If he used the horn’s full potential, its power would rival a full-strength attack from a Star Beast at Late Stage Emperor Level.
Such power was enough to be one of Chu Chen’s trump cards.
At this moment, Nirvana had completed its second Limb Regeneration, and its aura surged directly to King Level Five.
Seeing the paralyzed Shadow Demon, Nirvana didn’t hesitate and charged forward.
The pincers opened wide, clamping down on the Shadow Demon’s hind leg.
The Shadow Demon felt a stabbing pain from its hind leg and forcefully broke free from its paralyzed state.
The tiger claw struck fiercely, hitting Nirvana’s head. The Triple Defense absorbed eighty percent of the attack, but the remaining twenty percent was still formidable.
The insect armor on its head shattered instantly, and the pair of hard pincers was broken again.
Nirvana endured the searing pain and rolled to the side, creating dozens of feet of distance from the Shadow Demon.
The Shadow Demon didn’t pursue Nirvana; instead, it turned to look at its hind leg.
There, the broken pincers were still tightly clamped onto its hind leg.
The Shadow Demon gathered the Dark Element and shattered the pincers.
However, its injuries were severe, with the pincers having reached its bones. If given more time, its hind leg would have been broken.
Nonetheless, the injuries to its hind leg severely limited its mobility.
At this moment, Nirvana completed its third Limb Regeneration, its aura rising again, reaching King Level Six.
The Shadow Demon finally realized the extraordinary nature of Nirvana, as it attacked at an ever-quickening pace, with increasing power.
However, Nirvana was like an indestructible cockroach, recovering instantly each time it was heavily injured, and with each recovery, its strength increased significantly.
Nirvana’s rapid growth in strength was not only due to The More You Fight, the Braver You Get, but also the Talent of Life Battle.
Each time Nirvana used Limb Regeneration, it consumed a portion of its Life Force, and with Life Battle, the lower the Life Force, the stronger the strength.
In other words, every time Nirvana was injured, its strength was augmented twice.
After Nirvana completed its sixth Limb Regeneration, its aura soared directly to King-level Peak.
At this point, Nirvana’s Life Force had been depleted by eighty percent, allowing it to execute Limb Regeneration one more time at most.
Seeing Nirvana restored again, the Shadow Demon now showed a trace of panic.
Nirvana’s repeated full recovery continuously battered the Shadow Demon’s psychological defenses, and it had lost the will to fight, wanting only to escape and stay far away from this opponent who never seemed to fall.
But due to the severe injury to its hind leg, it couldn’t shake off its pursuer.
As Nirvana’s strength escalated, the Shadow Demon found it increasingly difficult to land a heavy blow on its opponent, let alone defeat it instantly—a sheer fantasy at this point.
The opponent not only had Triple Defense but also exhibited highly refined combat skills, rendering the impact of a full-strength blow to only about thirty percent after being deflected.
Compared to the fearful Shadow Demon, Su Zixuan was utterly shocked.
The Combat Power displayed by Lei Yao had already amazed her greatly.
But given that the opponent’s master was the Divine Son, she could barely accept it. After all, as the top prodigy of the entire Alliance, having such a monstrous Guardian Beast wasn’t so far-fetched.
However, Nirvana’s performance far exceeded her expectations, especially since she had personally taught its Defense techniques, and knew it also possessed the ability to command an Undead Army.
In her view, Nirvana’s incredible Defense capabilities combined with mastering the Power of the Undead was terrifying enough.
Yet, what she witnessed today—a defense and Power of the Undead that seemed trivial compared to the real ability of growing stronger in battle—was truly astonishing.
She was very curious to find out just how far Nirvana could push its limits.
A minute later, the Shadow Demon once again inflicted severe injury on Nirvana, but its own condition was barely any better.
Having expended over eighty percent of its stamina and Star Power, its body was also riddled with wounds of varying depths.
The loss of blood made it even weaker.
The Shadow Demon panted heavily, eyes fixed on Nirvana, silently praying that it would not get back up.
But contrary to its wishes, Nirvana rose once more, and its aura had reached Emperor Level.
Seeing this, the Shadow Demon immediately showed a look of despair. Faced with an opponent sharing the same Realm, it was utterly unable to continue the battle.
A few seconds later, the Shadow Demon roared unwillingly before its life force extinguished completely.
Nirvana gleefully wiggled its antennae and absorbed the Shadow Demon’s corpse into the Spatial Bracelet.
