Xiao Yan's Misery
🕑 Added 2023-04-21 12:40:21 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 62 ---
ROOOOOARRR!!!
Xiao Yan shuddered when facing the monster before him. It's a humanoid beast with extreme muscle density, having a mist-like slaughter aura around its body.
A creepy-toothed grin appeared on the monster's face, inducing a nightmare in Xiao Yan.
"Xiao Yan, hurry!" Yao Chen took control of Xiao Yan's body and dodged the monster's attack.
BAM!
Yao Chen solemnly looked down and saw the ground having a massive hole with just a simple punch. Assessing the situation as dangerous, he summoned Bone Chilling Flame and pulled Heavy Xuan Ruler.
"This is going to be tough."
The black monster launched itself like a cannonball and chased after Yao Chen, having enough momentum to pulverize a mountain into a cloud of dust.
Yao Chen dodged skillfully with his movement and felt something weird about this monster. It was like a clump of squirming flesh, possessing a wild beast-like consciousness.
He suspected Mystic Cloud Sect and Nalan Clan, but they have no power to create something like this. He also never heard about such a creature.
Xiao Yan felt the creature was somewhat familiar with something he knew before reincarnating to this world. However, that's too far of a stretch because this thing isn't a Symbiote.
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
The ground around them cracked every time the monster threw a punch or stomp, changing the landscape drastically.
"Flame Mantra-!" Yao Chen wanted to counter, but he was too slow.
The monster suddenly became faster and pummeled Yao Chen in the chest, blowing him to a massive rock.
BOOM! CRACK!
Cough!
Xiao Yan and Yao Chen shared the pain, feeling their rib cages are "instantly." broken apart by that heavy punch.
"Uugh, Flame Burst!"
Yao Chen utilized his Dou Technique and sent a wave of White Flame, covering the area in extreme heat and cold. He watched the monster screaming, thinking it was effective.
Unfortunately, it's not.
BAM!
The monster stepped past Yao Chen's Bone Chilling Flame and kicked him like a ragdoll, sending him flying.
Like a broken kite, Yao Chen spurted another mouthful of blood and landed on a shallow river. He had a hard time breathing and stared at the monster grimly.
"Xiao Yan, hear me properly."
"I'll use a secret technique to raise your cultivation to Dou King. It would exhaust my Soul Power, but you'd be able to get away and run."
"Remember, grow stronger, and recover my soul."
"We have no time, so please remember my move because it will be helpful for your future."
Yao Chen struck Xiao Yan's acupoints with quick finger strikes and suppressed the injuries, walking out of the shallow river.
He looked at the muscular monster and lifted the Heavy Xuan Ruler high, changing the atmosphere into ice cold.
The monster maintained its toothy grin and grabbed a nearby tree, using it as a weapon as if it was mocking Yao Chen.
"Haha, this bastard." Yao Chen kicked the ground swiftly and increased Xiao Yan's cultivation by two major realms, smashing the Heavy Xuan Ruler at the monster.
The monster roared in amusement and accepted the strikes without moving, grabbing Yao Chen's right arm.
After that, the monster slammed Yao Chen left and right.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Yao Chen endured the pain and launched a palm strike, hitting the monster's stomach.
BOOM!
White flame exploded and wrapped the area in temperature disorder.
The monster shrieked in pain and released some fleshy tendrils from its body. The fleshy tendrils blackened and became sharp-like blades, making Yao Chen curse in disbelief.
"You gotta be kidding me!" Yao Chen heightened his spatial awareness to the max. He dodged the monster's attacks carefully, witnessing the tendrils cut anything around him.
The rock and three become dust, swaying around in the area like a tornado.
ROAR!
The monster unleashed a furious roar and increased its AGAIN!
Yao Chen was speechless.
Even though he couldn't sense any Dou Qi from this monster or could rank it based on the magical beast's standard, this thing should be on 6-rank without any question.
As a Dou King(temporarily), Yao Chen still has a horrible time fighting this monster. The monster kept raising its strength and speed, not allowing Yao Chen to gain an advantage.
Not only that, even Chilling Bone Flame, the 11th-ranked "Heavenly Flame." is ineffective against this monster.
This monster seems to exist to counter Heavenly Flame's Wielder, which is ridiculous.
"Kekeke!" The monster laughed, making Yao Chen irritate physically and spiritually.
'If I possess a physical body and my cultivation, I'd have destroyed you to pieces a million times!' Yao Chen hatefully stared at the monster.
Heaving his chest up and down, Yao Chen gathered his soul power and increased Xiao Yan's cultivation by another great realm. This action will damage Xiao Yan's foundation and body, but his student's survival is the number 1 priority.
"HAAAAAAAAA!!!"
Yao Chen powered up, gritting his teeth because Xiao Yan's body wasn't ready for Dou Emperor's power.
He leaped and dragged the monster with his right hand, "Frost Flame Blast."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
A massive explosion occurred as Yao Chan floated in the sky with wings made of Dou Qi. He quickly consumed some pills to maintain enough Dou Qi for battle, seeing the monster was doing just fine.
The monster fell from the sky and wriggled its skin, creating a pair of bat-like wings on its back.
"Tch, this thing is still alive..." Yao Chen clicked his tongue in annoyance.
Left with no choices, Yao Chen summoned Xiao Yan's beast flames and combined them with his Chilling Bone Flame.
"Teacher, are you going to use my technique?" Xiao Yan hurriedly asked.
Yao Chen smiled and replied, "We have no choices left."
"I'm not much of a fighter, Xiao Yan."
"Even if I used a powerful technique, your body wouldn't be able to handle it."
"That's why your technique. I'll perfect it here." Yao Chen condensed the flames with both hands, forming a beautiful white lotus with brownish-red leaves.
The monster noticed this and roared at the sky, causing a black miasma to appear out of nowhere. A reddish-black aura exploded from the monster's body and changed the atmosphere.
Yao Chen clasped his hand and lifted the flame lotus, searing the air around him.
He stared at the monster and said, "COME, YOU UGLY BASTARD!"
ROOOOAARRRR!!
The monster waved its muscular arm and created a shockwave made of black gas.
"ANGRY BUDDHA LOTUS FLAME!"
"DIE!!!"
Their attacks met and reacted violently, burning and decaying the surrounding area.
SWOOOOOOOOOOOS! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Yao Chen's attack burned half of the lush forest, turning it into an ashen land.
Meanwhile, the monster's attack decayed life from the lush forest, turning it into a dead land.
Yao Chen fell to the ground and flew away immediately before the monster could chase him. However, running wouldn't be so easy.
The monster lost half its body, roaring in pain because of Yao Chen's attack. It's resistant to fire elements, but the force generated from Angry Buddha Lotus Flame is so dangerous.
Still, the monster is not wanting to die just like this.
The monster transformed into a kind of artillery, morphing the remaining of its body into sharp spikes.
ROAARRR!!!!
Yao Chen's instinct rang, but it was too late.
BOOM! STABS!
The flesh and bones spikes flew beyond the speed of sound and struck Xiao Yan's chest, crotch, and right arm, erasing them from existence. It missed his heart but still dealt fatal damage.
"ARRGHH!" Yao Chen screamed in pain and forced himself to fly away from the area, sealing the hole with the remaining arm.
The monster slowly crumbled into dust, leaving a wisp of golden flame, which died down after a few seconds.
Miles away from the destroyed forest, Baek Ain whistled and amusingly commented, "Not bad."
"Good job, Reaper. You're doing amazing as my first masterpiece."
[Ding! You have finished "Traumatize Xiao Yan." quest]
[I thought you were going to kill Xiao Yan for a second there, host]
"If I kill Xiao Yan. My goal to find the 1st Singularity will be harder." Baek Ain replied with a shrug. "Also, I've given him a fate worse than death."
[You did him dirty] Alicia sounds amused.
[That last attack will cause emotional damage...]
[No Descendant for the protagonist]
Baek Ain stretched his body in satisfaction and said, "Ah, that was a great showcase of my Parasitic Suit and Fire Avatar."
"I wonder how far I can push these things."
"Haha..."
"Hahaha."
[You're starting to enter a dark path, host]
"I'm not a good guy in the first place. And being antagonist doesn't sounds bad."
"Well then, let's go back."
