Chapter 420: Crunch

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

A burst of white light suddenly rose up in the little yard, as if a sun had appeared there.

Waves of intense heat rippled through the area. Looking over from a distance, the air seemed illusory, rippling like a pot of boiling water due to the high temperature.

After a long time, the light dissipated, and Bei Feng looked over at the Cerberus urgently.

“Si! What a terrifying lightning tribulation!”

“This kind of might, even a Controlled Dan Heavenly Expert would not dare to say that they would be able to survive, right?”

A 20-something meters wide pit had appeared in the yard, causing all who looked at it to suck in a breath of cold air.

The might of the lightning bolt was not scattered, all gathered on the Cerberus. The pit was at least 10 meters deep, and even the sides of the pit showed signs of crystallizing. One could easily imagine how shocking the power released at the instant of explosion was!

As the dust settled, the charred figure of the Cerberus was revealed. Numerous terrible gashes had appeared on the Cerberus’s body, crisscrossing through fur and skin matted with blood. The gashes were so deep that one could even see the Cerberus’s innards!

“Under such a powerful blast, this Demonic Beast shouldn’t be able to endure it no matter what, right?”

“Shush, be careful of Lord Bei Feng.”

The surrounding cultivators could all feel that the Cerberus’s aura had already disappeared, and there were no signs of life coming from its body.

Bei Feng’s bountiful mental power surged out of his body and enveloped the Cerberus’s body. The Cerberus had been completely burnt black by the lightning strike, and even the blood in its body had been evaporated.

Although he didn’t want to believe it, Bei Feng could not imagine how it would be possible to survive through this kind of injuries!

“Badump! Badump!”

Just when Bei Feng was losing hope and preparing to retract his mental power, a powerful thump suddenly came from the Cerberus’s heart!

“Badump! Badump!”

The heartbeat like a drum, growing stronger and stronger. Bei Feng was not the only one who heard it. Even the audience several hundred meters away could hear the heartbeat!

“How can this be? Its aura is getting stronger and stronger!”

“What a powerful Demonic Beast. I finally understand why this beast would attract Heavenly Lightning tribulation just by breaking through to the Controlled Dan realm. The talent of this creature is exceptionally high; the moment it broke through to the Controlled Dan realm, I’m afraid its power was already not below mine!” the leader of the 12 Kunlun Devils said as a strange light gleamed in his eyes. This beast really caused on to feel astonished.

A powerful demonic Qi mixed with blood and Qi energy rose up into the sky. A red-and-green beam of light about five, six meters thick also shot upwards!

This light and aura rose several hundred meters into the sky, like a heavenly pillar supporting the sky!

Countless people raised their heads and gazed up at this extremely rare sight. Even on the next day, news of this strange phenomenon was still being passed around on the internet, giving rise to all kinds of rumors and speculations.

“Si-la!”

A large gash appeared on the Cerberus’s forehead. At the same time, black claw extended out from it. The claw was extremely sharp, and shone with a black light.

“Hou!”

The figure of the Cerberus crawled out from inside the skin of its body like a butterfly breaking out a cocoon. At the same time, it let out a terrifying roar, announcing its return to life!

If this was lightning formed by nature, the Cerberus would have died 10 times out of 10. Lightning formed by nature was something that contained pure destructive might to annihilate everything. But a tribulation lightning was different. Tribulation lightning contained the power of creation and life!

It was opportunity amidst danger. After the tribulation lightning passed, its destructive energy would turn into the power of creation and life!

Borrowing the might of creation and life, the Cerberus directly created a new body, and like a snake shedding its skin, it discarded its old and damaged body!

After passing through the baptism of the tribulation lightning, the Cerberus’s bloodline had actually improved, and turned even purer!

The Cerberus’s figure directly rose into the air. Then, it placed its paws forward and strutted through the air in a strangely graceful manner. It was as if there were some invisible steps under its feet.

At this time, the Cerberus’s body was around the same size as a normal street dog. However, no one dared to underestimate it. The aura seeping out of its body alone was enough to cause most Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts to feel a chill in their hearts.

The group of Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts exchanged glances and turned back around. It was as if they knew that they were not a match for this dog…

As it floated back down, the aura surrounding it began to become more and more tame. By the time it landed in front of Bei Feng, its aura had been retracted completely and controlled to perfection.

“Owner, I’m so hungry!”

“Owner, it’s so painful!”

“Don’t listen to them, just give this Lord Dog a few hundred of those spirit stones and let me replenish so energy.”

The Cerberus trotted over to Bei Feng. Insatiable and Black Hole was licking Bei Feng’s ankles cutely, while Indigestion acted as the boss, not bothering about the two fellows beside it.

“It’s good that you’re fine.”

Bei Feng stooped down and carefully examined the Cerberus’s body. When he discovered that they were fine, he finally loosed a sigh of relief. With a flick of his hands, several middle grade spirit stones appeared in his hand.

“Ka-cha, ka-cha!”

The spirit stones were placed in the center, and all three heads instantly turned over and snatched at them with loud crunching sounds. Bei Feng’s mouth twitched lightly when he looked at their greedy appearance.

These spirit stones were even harder than diamond but to the Cerberus, they were like candy that was slightly crunchier.

“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist!”

“Fellow Daoist, I haven’t expected that you’d hidden your cards so deeply!”

“Good brat, you’re almost taking up a tenth of the Controlled Dan experts in China!”

A group of Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts came up to offer their congratulations. Everyone’s attitude towards Bei Feng was abnormally friendly.

Powerful people could be found anywhere. Originally, as far as these experts were concerned, Bei Feng was only a slightly more powerful expert. But now, things were vastly different. Bei Feng’s group of four were unexpectedly all Controlled Dan Heavenly Experts!

This was an extremely frightening concept. Although all the Controlled Dan experts were behaving courteously on the surface, what kinds of thoughts they were hatching was something that only they knew.

There was only one constant in everyone’s thoughts. There had to be a huge secret around Bei Feng! How could it be that the people around him all managed to break through to the Controlled Dan realm in this era!

At this time, Jiang Tao’s group was still standing there stupefied, not having regained their senses yet.

Jiang Tao’s mobile phone rang. When he picked it up, an old and stern voice came out of it. “Jiang Tao, what happened on your side?”

Others might not know what was going on, and most of the people who saw the strange lights only thought it was a result of some rare weather phenomenon. But Liu Yingjie already knew what kind of people were inside the manor!

When the strange phenomenon was discovered, he immediately made the call to Jiang Tao to find out what’d happened.

“There’s a huge beast as big as a house that’d just finished going through a lightning tribulation. There are also people flying in the sky…”

Jiang Tao was lost for words for a moment before he managed to stammer those words out. Even he himself felt that the story sounded like something out of a fantasy story.

“Pu!”

Liu Yingjie who was prepared to calm his heart with some tea immediately spat it back out. After a moment’s silence, he finally replied as he instructed, “As long as they are not doing anything that’ll endanger the country and our national interests, just agree to whatever they want and cooperate with them without conditions.”

“Understood.”

Jiang Tao hung up the phone with a complicated feeling that couldn’t be put into words in his heart.

“Is that what martial cultivators are? When they reached a certain level, even the state would not dare to offend them,” Jiang Tao mumbled to himself.

“Looks like the beating I took wasn’t such an aggrieved matter…”

Zeng Siqing had now hidden himself at the back of the crowd. When he saw the might of the damned dog, he was already thanking the heavens and feeling very lucky to still be alive. Right now, he was only worried that the other party might bear a grudge…
