Chapter 921: The Green Pearl Beast

Spring breezes were formless and shapeless. They drove out the cold without realizing it.

The warm sun hung high in the sky, and it was very gentle. Peach blossoms by the roadside bloomed just like the cheeks of a woman who had fallen in love; they were pink and tender. Butterflies and bees flew around the peach blossoms, lingering around them and forgetting to return. Not far away, a jade green mountain stream flowed gently. The stream water was so clear that the bottom of the stream could be seen. The fish in the water made splashes with their fins, and they played happily at the bottom.

Ou Yangming listened to the crisp and melodious chirps of birds and hummed a little tune. He was feeling happy.

Big Yellow raised its eyebrows and asked with a smile, “Lil’ Ming, what are you so happy about?”

“The scenery along the way is great, so I’m in a good mood. Life is supposed to be calm and peaceful, less grand and magnificent. Humans usually have too strong desires. The more one desires, the more tired one will be.” His voice was very soft and seemed to carry a different charm. It spread far and wide.

The goshawk hurriedly flattered him, “Tsk tsk, this is a great principle. I have to remember it.”

“A great principle my *ss!” Ou Yangming cursed in a bad mood.

Goshawk smiled embarrassedly and dared not speak recklessly.

At this time, on a long bridge several kilometers in front of Ou Yangming.

A white-clothed woman walked over slowly. She looked delicate and pretty. Although she was not stunning enough, she was very pleasing to the eye and was the type of person who would become more interesting the more one looked at her.

Under the bridge, the water gurgled while blue waves rippled. A green-clothed man who was sitting on the stone beside the bridge stood up in a hurry. His eyes revealed a look of surprise and joy. In the depths of his eyes, it was difficult to notice that there was also a hint of love that was hidden very well.

The man took the initiative to put his hands together and said, “Greetings, Young Lady Guan Yue...” Deep down, he was moved because he did not expect Senior Brother Yue to be so powerful to invite an outer sect disciple from Reborn in Paradise. Moreover, Guan Yue was famous in the outer sect. She was not even 20 years old, but she had cultivated to become a Rudimentary Spiritualist. It would be fine if that was all but the key point was that in the path of formations, even an Intermediate Spiritualist could not compare to her. Rumors had it that as long as Guan Yue’s cultivation base was high enough, she would be able to step into the inner sect of Reborn in Paradise. This would be enough to glorify her ancestors, right?

Speaking of which, the green-clothed man was also a disciple from an influential sect.

The Seven Stars Sect was not much weaker than Reborn in Paradise. In some aspects, they were even stronger. Nonetheless, the man was only in the Extreme Grade boundary and was only a handyman, hence he could not be compared to Guan Yue, who was surrounded by a halo. Even so, after a fortuitous encounter with the young lady, the man remembered her well.

Guan Yue waved her hand gently and smiled. “There’s no need to be so polite.”

Following that, she looked around and frowned slightly. She asked again, “Where’s Big Brother Ling?”

The man in green looked into the distance and replied with a smile, “Big Brother Ling Yue went to investigate the situation.”

Guan Yue nodded slightly and flipped her long hair, revealing her fair neck as well as her exquisite collarbone.

Half a month ago, Ling Yue, who was a Seven Stars Sect outer sect disciple, left the sect to train. He originally planned to travel around the world, but he did not expect to chance upon a spirit grade when he passed by Mount Yuantu.

It would be fine if it was just an ordinary spirit beast, but it was an injured middle-grade spirit beast. If he could take it down, it would be a huge fortune.

Nevertheless, though Ling Yue was a disciple of a large sect, he was only a Rudimentary Spiritualist. Even if that spirit beast was injured, he was not confident that he could kill it. Furthermore, an injured spirit beast was unquestionably the most dangerous. If it were to explode before its death, he might even die on the spot.

After a few moments of consideration, Ling Yue asked someone to send this news to his good friend, Guan Yue, and asked her to lend him a helping hand. If he could get help from her formation, then it would be possible to capture the spirit beast alive. Despite that, Ling Yue was always worried that others would be ahead of him, so he kept scouting the environment.

As for the handyman, Cao Jiuming, he had deliberately stayed behind to wait for Guan Yue.

Not long after, a tall and imposing young man walked over. He was dressed in green, and his black hair was behind him, making him look a little more casual and carefree. He chuckled and said, “Since Young Lady Guan has arrived, let’s go quickly to avoid any complications. If we can capture a middle-grade spirit beast alive and bring it to the market, we’ll surely be able to sell it at a high price.” As he said that, he cupped his hands and uttered sincerely, “I’ll have to trouble you, Young Lady Guan!”

The smile on Guan Yue’s face was gentle. “Big Brother Ling, you’re being too polite. You can just call me Younger Sister Yue.” She put on a serious face after that on purpose, which made her look more playful.

After exchanging pleasantries, the 3 of them moved forward.

Not long after, they arrived at Mount Yuantu. The mountain was filled with gravel, barren soil, and low shrubs, making it seem desolate.

Guan Yue narrowed her eyes and looked dubious as she expressed in a deep voice, “Big Brother Ling, is this Green Pearl Beast really here? This place is so desolate and doesn’t have abundant spiritual Qi. According to the records from my sect, this kind of spirit beast should like places that are damp and filled with spiritual Qi.”

Ling Yue waved his sleeve and responded with a warm smile, “Little Sister Yue, don’t worry. I’ve already checked it out. The Green Pearl Beast is here, and there won’t be any mishaps.”

Guan Yue nodded slightly and did not say anything.

Yellow sand filled the sky. All of a sudden, a muffled beast roar reverberated. The sound stirred up a storm, causing the space within a 3-meters radius to explode. The yellow sand in the sky was shaken and scattered in all directions. A 3-meters-long spirit beast was seen amidst the sandstorm. Its fur was gray and white, and its 2 huge fangs were like snow-white sickles. Especially its tail, it was as sharp as a long sword.

Guan Yue and Ling Yue looked at each other and saw the joy in each other’s eyes.

As for Cao Jiuming, he was only in the Extreme Grade boundary. He heard a sudden clap of thunder, causing the Qi and blood in his body to surge.

Ling Yue slowly walked forward and said with a dark and solemn expression, “Little Sister Yue, I’ll attack it head-on while you assist from the side by finding an opportunity to trap this spirit beast in your formation. After it’s trapped, things will be easier.”

“Okay!” Guan Yue’s brows trembled as she nodded heavily. She also had a solemn look on her face.

After all, this was a middle-grade spirit beast. Even if it was heavily injured, it was still not something that a Rudimentary Spiritualist could easily capture alive.

The Green Pearl Beast bared its teeth, and all the hair on its body stood up. Its limbs swelled up, and its blood-red pupils revealed a monstrous ferocity. At its lower abdomen, a bowl-sized wound was bubbling with blood, faintly emitting a black aura. Even the purest spiritual Qi might not be able to heal it. It was obvious that the wound was caused by a highly toxic weapon.

“Huff! Huff! Huff!” The Green Pearl Beast sucked in deep breaths. Its mouth seemed to have turned into a small black hole as it swallowed the spiritual Qi within 33 meters from it. It then compressed the spiritual Qi within its Dantian before exhaling.

A dozen green wind blades slashed towards Ling Yue like a dozen sharp flying swords. They whistled through the air and tore open a few holes in the yellow sand. With a mournful roar, it uttered, “Humans, ie!”

Just by hearing these words, one could feel strong resentment.

A grave expression appeared in Ling Yue’s eyes. He mobilized the spiritual power in his dantian and pounced forward. He took the initiative to meet the dozen green wind blades with a punch. It was then when a sudden change occurred. The dozen green wind blades seemed to be surrounded by an invisible spiritual power. They intersected with each other and turned into a dozen green whirlwinds, then they shot out countless thin threads with green lights that forced Ling Yue to retreat. They even cut open his clothes, such that 3 to 4 bloody grooves were cut from his lower abdomen to his chest. Fresh blood dripped from them, and his flesh turned inside out, which looked terrifying. The young man cried out in pain and hurriedly swallowed a healing pill.

Taking advantage of the time when the Green Pearl Beast spat out the wind blades, Guan Yue moved.

A light flashed from her slender and fair fingers flashed while a holy and pure expression appeared on her face. She raised her right hand and waved her sleeve forward as she leaned forward. Countless green arcs immediately spread out from the young lady’s hand. They were like meteors that streaked across the sky with their tails, and they lit up the surroundings with extreme brightness.

“Trap!” Her breathing quickened, and her face turned pale.

It was clear that setting up a trap in such a hurry was too difficult for her with her current strength.

Right at this moment, the green light began to collapse bit by bit. It was too late. At that moment, she bent down and squeezed her chest into an astonishing arc. As she pressed her palm down again, the speed of the green light’s spread increased once more and directly enveloped the spirit beast.

After doing all this, she staggered.

However, a happy smile appeared on her face.

Behind her, Cao Jiuyang’s expression darkened. He realized that he could not help at all. Just the aura from this spirit beast alone was enough to kill him numerous times.

Ling Yue’s face lit up with joy. He took out a 1-meter-long Green Edge Sword and said softly, “Little Sister Yue, I’m in admiration of your cultivation base in formations!”

“Big Brother Ling, you’re overpraising me. I was just lucky!” Having said that, the pride on Guan Yue’s face did not fade away. She was full of confidence in the path of formations, which was her pride.

“Let’s first restore our spiritual powers to the peak. As time passes, the injuries on this spirit beast will become more serious. In that case, we’ll definitely be able to capture it alive!” A bright light flashed in Ling Yue’s eyes. His heart was filled with boundless pride as he thought to himself, ‘How many cultivation resources could a middle-grade spirit beast be exchanged for?’

After 15 minutes, Ling Yue and Guan Yue exchanged glances.

Guan Yue took a step forward. Her body was graceful, and her gait was lithe. She was like a stream of white light as she entered the formation. Ling Yue was not willing to be outdone. His step technique was exquisite as he followed closely behind.

They either stabbed or slashed with their sword as they constantly moved around the border, only defending and not attacking.

The spiritual power in the spirit beast’s body was constantly being consumed, causing the injuries on its lower abdomen to become more severe.

“Shameless humans!” The Green Pearl Beast roared furiously. Its was agile as it darted out. With a swing of its tail, it descended from the sky like a large saber that flickered with a cold light.

That said, Guan Yue and Ling Yue were not slow, but they barely dodged the attack.

On the spot where the beast’s tail landed, sand and stones within 3 meters crumbled.

The spirit beast did not stop. Instead, its speed was even faster. Like a grey and white arc of lightning, it pounced toward the 2 of them. A special Qi momentum surrounded them. Although it was slightly weak, it was not something that a heavily injured spirit beast could release.

Ling Yue’s expression changed drastically as he screamed, “This spirit beast has been hiding its strength. Retreat! Retreat quickly!” However, they had already been enveloped by the Green Pearl Beast’s Qi momentum. Even if they wanted to retreat now, they would have to pay a huge price. With their cultivation bases, there was no way they could forcefully cut off the Qi momentum.
