Immortal Venerable of the Beast Race-Chapter 71 - 67 Xiaobi_2

71: 67 Xiaobi_2

71: 67 Xiaobi_2

The colossal fireball smashed onto the white shield, instantly bursting apart, engulfing a dozen or so zhangs in rolling flames.

Even behind the white glowing screen, the woman in the white dress could feel an intense heat.

Before the flames had dissipated, another massive fireball came crashing down, boosting the fire’s intensity.

The Ice Crystal Scorpion was entangled in battle with the Fire Rock Beast and the Iron Tail Scorpion, while the Green Giant Crane released streaks of green Wind Blades towards Shen Long, unable to break through the Xuan Water Shield.

It circled high in the sky before diving down, its sharp claws aiming straight for Shen Long at great speed.

Shen Long raised his right hand and sent a gigantic fireball flying out, smashing towards the Green Giant Crane.

The Green Giant Crane flapped its wings, sending out over a dozen green Wind Blades to slice the gigantic fireball to pieces.

The fireball burst apart, transforming into raging flames that enveloped the Green Giant Crane.

With a swift turn, the Giant Crane avoided the fierce flames.

A two-foot-long white Ice Cone shot forth.

With no way to dodge, the Giant Crane flapped its wings and sent out over a dozen Wind Blades to shatter the white Ice Cone into pieces.

Seizing the opportunity, another massive fireball smashed towards the woman in the white dress, the fire’s intensity growing as the rolling flames engulfed her figure, turning the ground beneath her red.

The flames had yet to disperse when yet another house-sized colossal fireball came hurtling down.

The Green Giant Crane tried to provide support, but a thick scarlet flame shot forth.

The Fire Rock Beast and Iron Tail Scorpion, working together, had injured the Ice Crystal Scorpion.

Its body was scorched black, its breath feeble, with several bloody holes on its back.

It’s prohibited to inflict lethal damage during sparring among fellow disciples, but there’s no issue with Spirit Beasts, Insects, or Birds; otherwise, real competition would be impossible.

This is also why Sun Furong doesn’t participate in the minor competition.

Her chances of entering the top fifty were slim.

Her Spirit Beasts and Insects were not of a high grade.

If she joined the minor competition, there was a risk her Spirit Beasts, Insects could be killed.

Such incidents weren’t uncommon in previous competitions, and while one’s own life might not be in danger, losing years of nurtured Spirit Beasts, Insects could drastically reduce one’s strength.

The Green Giant Crane dared not face the attack head-on, hastily dodging to the side.

As it flapped its wings, over a dozen Wind Blades successively struck the Fire Rock Beast’s body, producing a muffled clang like that of metal on metal, leaving shallow cuts on the Fire Rock Beast’s surface.

Shen Long withdrew the Iron Tail Scorpion to prevent it from being severely injured by the Green Giant Crane.

With the Fire Rock Beast restraining the Giant Crane, it wasn’t a problem.

The Green Giant Crane circled uncertainly in the sky, launching spells at Shen Long that were intercepted by the Fire Rock Beast.

It tried to move in close to attack Shen Long, who countered with a massive fireball with a mere flick of his hand.

Shen Long’s spellcasting speed was incredibly fast, attacking both the Green Giant Crane and the woman in the white dress simultaneously.

A bead flashing with green light shot out from within the flames toward Shen Long.

Shen Long, with his rich battle experience, quickly took out two talismans sparkling with Spiritual Light, slapped them onto his body, and added a green and a golden gleaming screen to his defenses.

As the green bead reached Shen Long, one could clearly see the tiny arcs of green electricity flickering on its surface, emitting a terrifying energy fluctuation.

The green bead exploded, transforming into a massive burst of green lightning, engulfing Shen Long’s figure.

The Green Giant Crane dived from the sky, aiming straight for the burst of green lightning.

Four yellow-glowing flying daggers shot out, slicing towards the Green Giant Crane.

The Green Giant Crane flapped its wings, sending out over a dozen green Wind Blades which were then shattered by the four yellow flying daggers.

By this time, the flames had also dissipated, and the white glowing screen around the woman in the white dress was flickering in and out of visibility, with scorch marks visible on the white shield.

“Mother-Child Blade!”

The woman in the white dress exclaimed in surprise.

She saw the Ice Crystal Scorpion at its last gasp, her brows knit tightly as she withdrew the Ice Crystal Scorpion back into her Spirit Beast bag.

Shen Long had already shown mercy.

Even if he had gone ahead and killed the Ice Crystal Scorpion, it wouldn’t have violated the rules of the competition.

Four Mother-Child Blades headed straight for the woman in the white dress, followed closely by a house-sized colossal fireball, smashing toward her.

The woman in the white dress slapped two defensive talismans onto her body, and at the same time, she raised a foot-long white jade ruler, waving it gently as over a dozen white Ice Cones shot out to meet the massive fireball.

With a thunderous boom, the colossal fireball exploded, turning into a sea of rolling flames that swallowed the woman in the white dress.

Shen Long continuously launched massive fireballs at the woman in the white dress.

The Green Giant Crane was blocked by the Fire Rock Beast and couldn’t provide support, and Shen Long’s speed of spellcasting was too fast.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the woman in the white dress conceded defeat.

Shen Long claimed victory, advancing to the second round, eliminating fifty Qi Refining Cultivators in the first round.

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Shen.”

Qian Dafu congratulated Shen Long.

“It’s just one round,” Shen Long replied, his gaze turning towards a green stone platform in the distance.

Ye Yuqing was battling a burly man in a golden shirt, who had released a Scarlet Flame Tiger and a Galewind Wolf, both in the Late Stage of first level.

Ye Yuqing, on the other hand, had released a Green Wind Tiger and a Green Thunder Eagle, with the Green Wind Tiger in the Late Stage and the Green Thunder Eagle in the Middle Stage of the first level.

They were entangled in a closely matched combat.

She cast more than ten Fire Serpent Talismans that turned into several zhang-long scarlet fire snakes, darting towards the man in the golden shirt.

The man in the golden shirt, with green luminous boots beneath his feet, retreated to dodge the scarlet fire snakes, but soon he found himself under attack by countless green Wind Blades.

As he was about to dodge, the ground beneath him shattered and two yellow hands appeared, grabbing his ankles.

With no room to evade, he could only conjure up a golden shield to block the incoming green Wind Blades.

The twenty or so scarlet fire snakes struck the golden shield in succession.
