Chapter 100: Chapter 85: Treasure Seal Demonstrates Its Power, Securing Treasures from the Demon’s Lair [Subscribe]
“Baibai, well done!”
In the mine tunnel, Zhou Chun, who had just abruptly ceased his meditation and got to his feet, praised the Silver Lightning Python Baibai in his heart as he watched the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast.
The forked lightning in the shape of a snake was indeed a Thunder Element Spell released by the Silver Lightning Python Baibai.
Among all spells, the Thunder Element Spells undoubtedly possessed the greatest power.
Although the Silver Lightning Python Baibai was currently only a mid-tier rank-one Demon Beast, its dominant and powerful Thunder Element Spells had successfully interrupted the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast’s escape, buying Zhou Chun crucial time.
While silently praising the Silver Lightning Python Baibai for its significant contribution, Zhou Chun didn’t hesitate to slap his Storage Pouch and summon the Moon Blade Meteor Wheel, slashing it fiercely towards the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast.
Faced with the aggressively spinning silver-black circular Magic Artifact, the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast didn’t show any sign of panic.
Its scales slightly tensed up, with golden light surging on its body surface, it directly lashed its tail towards the oncoming circular Magic Artifact.
The collision between the tail and the circular Magic Artifact in mid-air emitted a sound like the clashing of gold and iron, with countless sparks flying in the process.
The usually unbeatable Moon Blade Meteor Wheel, this time, finally met its match.
It couldn’t even tear a single scale of the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast!
After deflecting the circular Magic Artifact with the contest of strength, the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast immediately started excavating the ground beneath with golden light surging through its claws.
Its claws seemed to possess some magical power, as any soil or stone that came into contact with them quickly softened and was sliced into chunks and scraped out.
In just the span of a few breaths, it had dug a three-foot-deep hole in the hard mine tunnel floor, burrowing half its body into it, right in front of Zhou Chun.
Zhou Chun watched, both shocked and angry, hastily propelling his Magic Artifact to slash at the half of the beast’s body still visible outside the hole.
But it was as if there were eyes on the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast’s tail; every time the Moon Blade Meteor Wheel came slashing down, it was promptly swept away.
Seeing its exposed body diminishing quickly, Zhou Chun, intermingling fear and rage, eventually withdrew the Moon Blade Meteor Wheel and brought out another Magic Artifact that he hadn’t used in actual combat since acquiring it.
“Grow!”
Zhou Chun shouted, and a small, yellowish earthen seal in mid-air spun rapidly, expanding in size until it stopped, as big as a water jar.
“Fall!”
Zhou Chun shouted again, and the enormous seal, now like a water jar, slammed down, savagely crashing onto the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast about to completely disappear into the mine tunnel.
Boom!
A rumbling like an earthquake resounded through the mine tunnel, causing the entire vein to shake, and even causing a small-scale collapse in some areas.
Amidst this earth-shattering noise, a sharp and pitiful scream clearly reached Zhou Chun’s ears.
As the tremors gradually subsided, Zhou Chun scanned with his Divine Sense and saw a concave crater had appeared on the floor of the mine tunnel.
In the bottom of the pit, the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast lay spitting blood, with countless broken bones, shaking as it tried to stand up again to continue its escape.
But Zhou Chun would not give it that chance.
Zhou Chun’s thoughts stirred, ready to once again activate the Mini Thousand Hills Seal to deal a relentless blow to the beast, to thoroughly crush it to death.
Listening to the rustling sounds of falling rocks and soil, he suddenly realized that he absolutely couldn’t continue like this.
His last attack had already caused a quake; another one would not only be unbearable for the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast, but the mine tunnel would likely also not withstand it and would collapse.
Thus, he quickly changed his Magic Artifact, taking out the Locking Gold Ring that he had not used since obtaining it.
He cast the pale-golden circular Dharma Tool with a flick of his wrist, and it shot out, looping over the head of the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast.
Still in a dazed state, the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast was too slow to react and got easily ensnared by the circular Dharma Tool.
As Zhou Chun succeeded with his move, he immediately prompted the circular Dharma Tool to shrink and tightly clasp around the head of the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast, attempting to strangle it to death.
But the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast was after all a very powerful low-level Demon Beast, renowned for its defense.
When its life was threatened, the instinct to survive quickly triggered its innate Spell.
Dazzling golden light shone brightly from the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast, and the circular Dharma Tool, which had shrunk to less than the size of a human head, was forcibly stretched several sizes larger by the golden light, and eventually “pop!” it snapped, forcefully shooting out.
Then the Golden Armored Piercing Mountain Beast spat out the gourd Dharma Tool it had kept in its mouth, glaring at Zhou Chun with bloodshot eyes, and violently counterattacked.
As it opened its mouth a golden light shot forth, streaking towards Zhou Chun like a long spear.
Zhou Chun, seeing this, frantically launched the dark Iron Shield Dharma Tool to protect himself.
However, the power of the golden light long spear was unimaginably strong, shattering the dark Iron Shield Dharma Tool into several pieces.
Zhou Chun’s pupils contracted, and he quickly reached out to his waist for the Spirit Beast Pouch, releasing the Rock Earth Turtle.
He didn’t want the Rock Earth Turtle to join the battle in the mine tunnel, as in such narrow quarters, the already ungainly Rock Earth Turtle would be further hindered from moving freely.
