266 Pressure, True Expert

“It’s a Holy Beast. It’s the aura of a Holy Beast just now, and it’s a powerful Holy Beast!” Nangong Shou floated in the air and looked around. He was sure that the Holy Beast was not dead. The greed in his red triangular eyes was undisguised. If there was a Holy Beast, he could tame it and increase the strength of his Nangong family’s training team. At that time, he would have a chance of winning against the Divine Hall of Judgment.

“There’s actually someone who can fight a Holy Beast alone. Eh, could it be that that person is also a Grandmaster Beast Tamer?” Dongfang Ao was puzzled. The human and Holy Beast had disappeared too cleanly, but they could actually escape under the mental lock of him and Nangong Shou. This person’s strength was too terrifying.

“How is that possible?” Nangong Shou sneered and said arrogantly, “There are only a handful of Grandmaster Beast Tamers on this continent. There’s me, the President of the Beast Tamer Master Guild, and one other person is the Chief Elder of the Divine Hall of Judgment.”

Dongfang Ao paid no attention to the old man’s arrogant attitude. His spiritual power covered the nearby forest. He did not find his target and was about to leave when an incomparably powerful pressure came from the horizon. Immediately after, an even more powerful spiritual attack struck down like a muffled thunder. If Dongfang Ao had not retracted his spiritual power in time, he would not only have fallen from the sky and kissed the ground, but he would have become a fool.

Nangong Shou’s situation was even worse than his. As a Grandmaster Beast Tamer, Nangong Shou’s mental strength was even stronger. All he cared about was the Holy Beast that had disappeared right under his nose. Caught off guard, he was attacked by a mental attack. He collapsed to the ground, his face pale. His clothes were drenched, and his entire body was drenched in sweat, as if he was a fish out of water.

What was so scary?

“Pfft!” Nangong Shou spat out a mouthful of blood. He no longer had the strength to think. Waves of pressure came. After the mental attack, the pressure felt like a huge mountain pressing on his chest. His lungs were all empty. He could stop breathing at any time and die.

Dongfang Ao was filled with regret. Curiosity killed the cat. He was right. The air in the entire world seemed to have been sucked out. His body was squeezed by this huge pressure until his abdomen caved in. The shadow of death lingered above his head. The moment when the pressure was at its strongest, it seemed to have descended directly from above. Just as Dongfang Ao thought that he was going to die, the pressure relaxed and blood spurted out of his throat. Dongfang Ao lay on the ground and coughed violently.

“So powerful!” He believed that when the pressure was extremely strong just now, that powerful existence had indeed flashed past their heads. This was the only feeling left in his heart: too powerful!

“This, this, what exactly is this? A Sacred Beast?” The shadow of fear shrouded his heart. After saving his life, Nangong Shou’s desire for the Sacred Beast was completely extinguished. He prostrated on the ground and mobilized the remaining elemental energy on his body. At this moment, Nangong Shou had the desire to escape.

It wasn’t the powerful clamor of a hurricane, nor was it the display of lightning-like power. It was just an aura that brought with it a silent pressure. It was as powerful as a huge hand that grabbed everyone’s hearts and controlled the lifeline of all living beings. This kind of power was truly terrifying.

“Maybe it’s a human in the heaven rank. Could it be that the one from Flame City has come?” Dongfang Ao guessed in his heart. Whether it was a Sacred Beast or a human in the heaven rank, they were both heaven-defying existences on this continent. To be able to survive today, their ancestors were really virtuous.
