The Master of Beasts-Chapter 649 - 181:

"Stop flattering, as long as everything's fine."

Reaching out to gently stroke the token that emitted a continual sharp sword aura, Shen Buhai extinguished the fierce sword aura with his jade-like fingers.

Watching the remnants of the sword aura slightly seep out, the old servant trembled all over, fearing that his master might accidentally shatter the sword aura onto himself.

"Lou Boxuan's sword aura? No, the aura is slightly weaker, is it Chen Jiuge's rescue order?"

Shen Buhai frowned. Usually, when a rescue order is activated, it causes a huge commotion, but this time it was different.

The sword aura that emerged wasn't much, and its speed wasn't fast, more like a slow reminder.

Closing his eyes to slowly analyze the information within the sword aura, Shen Buhai's eyes suddenly opened, and a bright light sliced through the space, revealing the pitch-black void.

"Miao Family?"

"Interesting, that fallen Miao Family dares to trouble my Sect's disciple?"

With a cold laugh, Shen Buhai decided to take matters into his own hands. During this period of seclusion, have people forgotten his fame?

Of course, this also has to do with Lou Boxuan and Shen Boyi currently being on important missions and unable to return.

"Master, has the young master encountered trouble?"

"Hmm, I'll leave the matters at home to you."

"Yes, Master!"

It's important for a Daluo level to be cautious when leaving the Sect, especially when this time's outing might cause trouble for a family affiliated with the Sect.

"Let's leave it at that!" Liu Tai dismissed the report from a Heavenly Immortal Elder.

"I've understood the general situation. I'll send the Guardian Army over; tell them to hold on for a bit longer."

"Yes, Sect Master."

As the Heavenly Immortal Elder exited the great hall, Liu Tai turned his head to look around, his eyes brimming with spirit light piercing through the space to see Shen Buhai in the void.

"Why have you come out of seclusion?"

"Someone's troubling my disciple, of course I left seclusion!" Shen Buhai said flatly.

"Lou Boxuan?" Liu Tai frowned.

"It's Chen Jiuge!" Shen Buhai corrected.

"I thought other Sects were giving us trouble." Liu Tai breathed a sigh of relief.

Lou Boxuan being a Golden Immortal is not easily troubled by anyone, plus with the Underworld's invasion, the situation in the True Realm is indeed a bit delicate.

"Go ahead and take action, but since you're out, deal with those scattered evil ghosts in the territory while you're at it!" Liu Tai nodded.

"Hmm, alright, I'm off then."

........

Thunder God Temple

Due to the invasion of evil ghosts, the ancestral land of the Thunder God Temple now only had a few elders on duty and no other disciples.

The Thunder God's Eye above the thunderclouds occasionally opened, causing bursts of thunderstorms.

"I really don't understand why the Sect Master insists on us guarding this place." A younger-looking Liu You complained somewhat dissatisfied.

Liu Junwen glanced at this junior who just broke through to the Golden Immortal level and said indifferently, "It's just a few more years until it's the next shift, bear with it."

"You're right."

"By the way, Brother Liu, you were involved when the ancestral land changed last time, weren't you? Can you tell me about it?" Liu You asked with great curiosity.

Liu Junwen shook his head, "The Sect Master has issued a ban, don't probe too much."

Liu You pouted in dissatisfaction, then caught sight of a dark shadow from the corner of his eye and changed the subject, "Alright then, Brother Liu, I'll go have a little drink."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Liu You's love for drinking was well-known to Liu Junwen, and since the Thunder God's Eye was suppressing everything, nothing major would happen.

After giving his thanks, Liu You hurried off into the corner.

Liu Junwen saw this and shook his head helplessly.

In the corner, Liu You stared at a snow-white rabbit hugging some grass, shivering, with a peculiar expression, "A wild beast?"

"In this environment, why would there be a beast with no cultivation?"

"It's holding Thunder Spirit Grass, isn't it?"

"Strange, a high-rank Thunder Spirit Grass, yet an ordinary rabbit, how could it possibly pick Thunder Spirit Grass?"

The more Liu You thought about it, the stranger it seemed. His fingers glowed with spirit light, ready to end the strange rabbit directly.

"Roar!"

A ferocious roar erupted from the rabbit's mouth, and the formerly cute and sweet-looking rabbit suddenly turned extremely ferocious.

Fangs as tall as half a human body extended from its mouth, and its short, fluffy tail kept stretching, turning into a white tail with bone spurs.

Its aura surged directly to the Golden Immortal level.

"Whoosh"

The bone spurs swiftly shot out, sending Liu You flying.

"Rip"

The sound of friction between the soles and the ground echoed, as Liu You transformed into a Devil Muscle Man, revealing a sinister smile.

"I knew something was off, a possessed Evil Ghost? After possessing an ordinary creature, it still has Golden Immortal cultivation!"

"Your true form must at least be Daluo level!"

The rabbit that had undergone a dramatic change laughed coldly.

"Young one, just a newly promoted Golden Immortal, what can you do to me!"

The strange beastly roar mixed with a cold male voice echoed in the air.

"Divine Skill—Clear Thunder Eight Sounds!"

Bluish thunder coiled on the ground, forming eight Thunder Flood Dragons. In a unique and eerie manner, they coiled into a cage, trapping the rabbit inside.

The Thunder Flood Dragons, seemingly alive, trembled continuously, emitting bizarre sounds, and a stream of black energy was dispelled and melted by the clear sound emitted by the Thunder Dragons.

"What kind of Divine Skill is this?" Yi Qi's face changed.

The sound emitted by these Thunder Dragons doesn't come with a strong magic attack, but it's extremely effective at exorcism, especially against those using sinister powers.

Liu Junwen, who had just arrived upon hearing the commotion, sneered and said, "And you think that's why Junior Brother was promoted and came here to guard on purpose!"

Liu You is one of the newly promoted Golden Immortals in Thunder God Temple in thousands of years, assisted greatly in his promotion by his exorcism Divine Skill.

With the Clear Thunder Eight Sounds, countless ghosts dissipate; it's a rare Divine Skill specialized in restraining demons and evils.

That's why Thunder God Temple invested heavily in him, allowing him to directly promote to the Golden Immortal Realm in a short time.

"Ahem, Senior Brother, this is a big fish." Liu You said excitedly.

"I know, but Junior Brother, how long can your Divine Skill last?" Liu Junwen asked, looking at Yi Qi still lively in the cage, with a solemn expression.

Usually, a Heavenly Immortal Evil Ghost, once contained, would dissipate in just a few breaths even if it's a Golden Immortal Evil Ghost; it would only last for a short while, fading away.

But this Yi Qi seems off. Clearly, it's a Soul Fragment possession, and such fragments are fragile, supposed to be easily purified.

"It should be fine, right?" Feeling the consumption of immortal power in his body, Liu You said uncertainly.

The Clear Thunder Eight Sounds is a bit unique. Once it captures the target, as long as Liu You doesn't interrupt the flow of immortal power, it can persist indefinitely.

Of course, the power of the Divine Skill largely depends on the amount of immortal power Liu You outputs.

"Ahh ahh ahh" "Hee hee hee"

Originally wailing, Yi Qi suddenly showed a strange smile.

"So it's just the two of you!"

"You shouldn't be able to control that eye in the sky, otherwise, a single thunderbolt could defeat my avatar."

"Do you think you can break through my Clear Thunder Eight Sounds?"

Liu You's eyes were completely submerged by the Clear Thunder, rapidly depleting a large amount of immortal power within him, even causing his Golden Immortal Dao Fruit to wither slightly and imperceptibly.

"I told you before, just a trifling Golden Immortal, a mere junior, how could you understand the wonders of Daluo level?"

"Without Bounds"

"Boom"

The fragile body turned into a mist of blood, revealing a bright red pearl.

The pearl, like a living thing, throbbed slowly, its frequency matching that of a heartbeat.

"Thud thud thud"

Liu You and Liu Junwen's hearts unknowingly began to beat in sync with it.

"You only know about Evil Ghosts and Yin Ghosts, but the Underworld is as vast as the Yang World, why assume there are only two types of ghost monsters?"

Yi Qi's deep voice lingered in both their ears.

"Crack"

The blood pearl cracked open, revealing a pair of white, tender hands, followed by a small ghost with a rosy face and sharp teeth climbing out.

"What is this thing?"

Liu You trembled watching the Thunder Dragon being torn apart by the little ghost.

This was his most powerful Divine Skill, even those formidable among Golden Immortals couldn't tear it apart so easily!

Unless, unless this little ghost is not just an avatar!

But how is this possible? The Yang World shouldn't allow Daluo-level beings from the Underworld to appear!

"Fresh air, it's so nostalgic!"

Yi Qi expressed ecstasy, a hint of greed flashing across his rosy cheeks: "And fresh blood and flesh!"

"Watch out!"

Liu Junwen shouted angrily, a Thunder Dragon flew towards Yi Qi!

"Boom boom boom"

The thunder dispersed. Liu Junwen watched as Liu You's head appeared in the little ghost's hands.

A pair of round eyes popped wide open on Liu You's decapitated head as it was tossed and caught, glaring lifelessly at Liu Junwen!

"How could this be?"
