Thunderous sounds erupted, and countless lightning balls surged out, instantly surrounding the Thunder-Fire Beast in the center.
Among the many spiritual energies, Wind and Thunder attributes are significantly faster than ordinary attacks. Wind spiritual energy is ethereal and agile, with the quickest changes. Thunder spiritual energy has the strongest burst and the fastest linear speed.
The Thunder-Fire Beast sensed danger, and the wounds it had just suffered throbbed faintly. Reacting a step too late, it was immediately in peril.
The beast howled, its long tail rapidly coiling several times, enveloping its entire body in place, forming a deep red ball of flame, seemingly trying to defend itself.
But then, numerous lightning balls crashed down with a deafening roar.
In an instant, the firelight intertwined with the ghostly blue spiritual light, and wherever it passed, violent spiritual energy scattered. Under the impact of this powerful spiritual energy, the nearby soil and rocks instantly turned into powder, and the ground was completely scraped away.
The area where the Thunder-Fire Beast was located was blasted into a huge pit.
A white light flashed, and Zhao Yunshan appeared above the pit. A black long whip shot out directly from his hand.
The sound of the whip cracking through the air echoed, transforming into countless black light traces, intertwining like a large net, covering the pit.
At the same time, a bright light flashed in the pit, and a thick line of fire shot into the sky. It was the Thunder-Fire Beast's long tail. This tail, like a red long sword, instantly pierced towards Zhao Yunshan, but it was precisely entangled by countless black light threads.
Zhao Yunshan immediately revealed a look of joy. The previous attacks were all for this strike. He quickly urged the long whip in his hand, and countless light threads condensed into a black light, directly pulling the Thunder-Fire Beast out of the pit.
Then, he quickly swung the long whip in his hand, and countless black lights shot out, wrapping around the Thunder-Fire Beast, trying to capture it.
Although the seventh-order Thunder-Fire Beast was powerful, Zhao Yunshan had lived for hundreds of years, had rich fighting experience, and was himself a peak Golden Core expert, proficient in thunder techniques. Suppressing a seventh-order demon beast was not difficult.
Countless light threads wrapped around most of the Thunder-Fire Beast's body, binding it like a dumpling. No matter how high the flames on its body rose, it could not break free.
In his eyes, the Thunder-Fire Beast was just a slightly stronger animal. If he didn't want to capture the beast alive, he wouldn't have wasted so much time.
Just as Zhao Yunshan thought he could solve the Thunder-Fire Beast, he suddenly felt a sharp sound of wind behind him. He immediately waved his hand backward, and a blue crystal shield appeared behind him, quickly enlarging to protect his entire body.
Then, two beams of light, one black and one white, shot straight at him, striking the shield. Although it blocked the attack, he was caught off guard and sent flying backward, falling towards the ground.
Before he could adjust his posture, a bright yellow light shone from the ground below, and a surge of earth and rocks shot out more than a dozen thick rock spikes, stabbing straight at him.
As a peak Golden Core expert, Zhao Yunshan had a powerful divine sense and immediately noticed the attack behind him. A layer of light blue protective罩 appeared on his body. At the same time, the black long whip in his hand quickly waved, forming a continuous black light shadow beneath him.
A loud cracking sound echoed, and instantly many stone cones were shattered in the large black light.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came. A mass of constantly flowing yellow sand rose from all around, sweeping towards him, seemingly trying to trap him in place.
Zhao Yunshan also reacted quickly, and two fist-sized, deep blue round beads were thrown out in his hand.
The thunder beads collided in the center, lighting up a deep blue light, and with a bang, they exploded, raising a mass of deep blue thunder-fire, covering the surrounding thirty to forty zhang of space. The surrounding yellow sand was immediately shattered into sand grains and scattered.
Zhang Ling frowned when he saw this scene. He sighed secretly at how strong this person was. With a thought, the yellow sand flickered with spiritual light, quickly condensing and turning into a large mass of quicksand.
However, it did not attack again, but returned to his side, flowing around his body, forming a layer of defense.
This yellow sand was refined from complete Celestial Star Sand and would not be easily destroyed.
Then, a white light flashed in the thunder-fire, and Zhao Yunshan rushed out. The old man's clothes were ragged, his hair was disheveled, and his image was extremely embarrassing, but he was not greatly injured.
As soon as the old man appeared, his eyes widened and he immediately locked onto Zhang Ling, shouting angrily, "Who are you?" But before he could finish his words, he turned to look at the other side. "It's you, girl from the Ding family. You're behind all this."
"Elder Zhao, Ruozhao has no intention of being an enemy of the Azure Thunder Sect, but only wants to retrieve my Ding family's spirit beast."
Ding Ruozhao was standing not far away, silver lightning flashing in her hand, and lightning bolts struck the Thunder-Fire Beast. The black spiritual light lines binding it were rapidly dissolving as if they had encountered a nemesis.
Woof woof!
The Thunder-Fire Beast also howled excitedly, struggling desperately, and broke free from its restraints. Seeing Ding Ruozhao, it showed a human-like joy.
"Since you have no intention of being an enemy, hand over the Thunder-Fire Beast, and this old man can pretend that this never happened. The Azure Thunder Sect will not pursue the matter afterward," Zhao Yunshan said with a frown.
"Elder Zhao, there's no need to say these false words. You supported Liu Yuan to become the head of my Ding family. Have you ever thought about the future of my Ding family?" Ding Ruozhao raised her head and stared directly at Zhao Yunshan, saying expressionlessly. "Today, I represent the Ding family in withdrawing from the Azure Thunder Sect."
"Hmph, want to withdraw from this sect? Do you know what you're saying?"
"The Ding family's Thunder-Fire Beast can only be handled by the Ding family. Even the Azure Thunder Sect has no right to interfere," Ding Ruozhao said again, unmoved.
"Hmph, does the small Ding family think it can defy the heavens?"
Zhao Yunshan's face turned gloomy when he heard this, and his spiritual power surged. Wielding the black long whip in his hand, he formed patches of black light. At the same time, the blue round bowl boiled again, immediately forming clusters of thunder light around him, intending to attack.
Seeing this, Ding Ruozhao also revealed her magic weapon. Two arcs of light, one white and one black, appeared. These were two crescent-shaped light blades. The white light blade condensed silver lightning, and the black light blade gently swayed, forming patches of wind blades.
Zhang Ling was also ready to attack at any time. With a wave of the long sword in his hand, the yellow sand flowing around him condensed into stone balls.
The Thunder-Fire Beast also glared angrily at Zhao Yunshan, its body flashing with fire, and red lightning constantly jumping on the horn on its head.
A late-stage Golden Core, a mid-stage Golden Core, and a seventh-order demon beast. This made Zhao Yunshan's face turn purple, as gloomy as an eggplant beaten by frost. Even with his cultivation at the peak of the Golden Core stage, he couldn't help but feel a sinking in his heart.
He was confident that he could take down one late-stage and one mid-stage opponent, but with the addition of a seventh-order demon beast, it was not something that could be solved in a short time. He might even be injured or even in danger of his life.
