Chapter 342: Unable to Block, Unable to Escape

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

After the group of Great Archmagi from the Beast Sect had activated their magical beast state, they had indeed salvaged some of their disadvantage, but… it was only for a short period of time.

As the battle between the two sides wore on, the battle situation returned to a state of before the Beast Sect mutated!

The Beast Sect could not stop the Nicholas family!!

…

The people from the Beast Sect had originally hoped that the Sect Master or the magical beast guarding the sect would be able to quickly eliminate the enemy and turn around to support them. However, as time passed, the battle between the two Divine Magi were still in a stalemate. There was no obvious advantage.

Moreover, in the chaotic battle between the Great Archmagi, there were casualties again from the Beast Sect!

The secret technique of the Beast Sect would seal a magical beast in the body of a Mage. As a host Mage, one could continuously absorb the energy of the magical beast when cultivating magical power. In combat, he could also temporarily use the powerful strength of the magical beast. However, when used, it was very easy to lose one’s mental state and become a magical beast completely.

When a Mage died and became a shell, the magical beast in his body that was still alive would break out and attack everyone indiscriminately.

Regarding the point that a beast would break out upon the death of the host, there was a caveat. If the attack suffered had exceeded the tolerance range, the host would die and the magical beast in his body would also die.

This meant that not all members of the Beast Sect would turn into magical beasts after they died.

For example, the Great Elder of the Beast Sect, who had been penetrated by the Formation-Breaking Spear earlier, did not have a magical beast break out of his dead body.

Of the Great Archmagi of the Beast Sect that had been killed one after another, more than half of the magical beasts had successfully broken through their bodies. However, the first to suffer the ravages of the magical beasts were not from the Nicholas family but from the Beast Sect.

A magical beast that had broken through the seal of a human body was even more terrifying than a ferocious beast. It would kill anyone it saw. Moreover, because this battlefield was originally the lair of the Beast Sect, most living creatures in the surroundings were naturally not a few Divine Magi and a group of Great Archmagi, but ordinary members of the Beast Sect!

As soon as the magical beasts broke out of the bodies and landed on the ground, the first to be killed were the members of the Beast Sect. They fought until it was chaos, and blood flowed like a river!

When Bourget, who was fighting with Norton, saw the tragic scene in the Beast Sect, the indignation in his heart became increasingly strong. He actually roared and transformed into a lizard-like magical beast. His battle aura suddenly increased!

“Roar—”

A roar no different from that of a magical beast came from Bourget’s mouth. The huge phantom of a magical beast behind him also roared loudly. Demonic aura and natural energy converged in its mouth, and it shot out an incomparably powerful laser at Norton!

Seeing that his opponent had been forced into such a situation, Norton’s expression turned solemn. He did not want to be outdone. He erupted the magical power in his body and activated the second transformation of the Skyfiend Three Transformations. He raised his hand and used the Demon Killing Chant for the second time!

“Boom—”

Amidst the earth-shaking collision, the powerful force of the collision between the two instantly swept out thousands of kilometers away. The battle group of Great Archmagi, which had originally been entangled together in a mess, had no choice but to split up and dodge. A magical beast that had just broken out did not dodge, and was instantly torn into pieces by the powerful force!

In front of Norton, there was a golden shell blocking him. He stood firmly in the midst of the violent sweeping force.

Opposite him, Bourget was pressed directly to the ground by the Demon-Killing Chant. A huge building in the Beast Sect was directly smashed into ruins!!

… . .

“The human race is indeed a little ingenious in creating magical power and mystic techniques…”

The man in white robe on the distant mountain muttered as he watched the earth-shaking battle from afar.

At this moment, the snow fox on his right shoulder suddenly arched its back and hissed at the front, as if it had discovered some enemy.

The man’s expression was still calm. He followed the snow fox’s hostile gaze and glanced at the foot of a mountain not far ahead.

The rock walls at the foot of the mountain suddenly moved a few times, and a stone cave leading deep into the mountain was revealed. Many figures rushed out from the cave.

In this group of fleeing people, the person at the front of the group was a thin gray-robed man. From the state he was in, the magical beast sealed in his body was probably a magical beast that could drill holes.

Looking at their behavior and the aura of magical power on their bodies, this group of people should be those from the Beast Sect who had fled!

Apart from the level-1 Great Archmage who was leading the team, the rest were all young people. They were either Great Magi or ordinary Magi… It looked like this should be the core of the younger generation of the Beast Sect being nurtured.

These young people were all trembling in fear. From time to time, they would look in the direction of the Beast Sect. When they saw the shockwaves in the sky, they were so frightened that they quickly retracted their gazes.

“Run! Don’t turn back…”

The gray-robed man at the front of the group reminded them as he ran. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks in shock!

The other young people who had been fleeing also stopped in their tracks. They looked at the front of the group in shock and saw a person in white standing there.

As their flight, they had suddenly been stopped by a stranger. Was he a friend or foe? He had come with ill intentions!

The magical power in the half-beast gray-robed man surged. He was shocked and wary. “Who are you?!”

The person in white glanced indifferently at the group of people in front of him and seemed to shake his head vaguely. No one knew what he meant.

There was no time to think now. A cold light flashed in the eyes of the gray-robed man. Just as he was about to make a move to find out the background of this man in white…

“Hmm? Why… Hmph…”

The gray-robed man’s expression froze, and then his eyes bulged. He was in so much fear and pain that his facial features twisted. After a muffled groan, he fell to the ground and trembled non-stop, as if he had gone berserk. At the same time, countless slightly protruding black patterns covered his face and all over his body!

In the next moment, countless fine cracks appeared on this person’s body, and he exploded into pieces of flesh and blood with a tragic and despairing wail. “Bang!”

Black light erupted from the flesh fragments. It was a huge black rat!

“Squeak”

The black rat magical beast let out a violent roar. A gust of wind, which carried the energy of a powerful magical beast, swept across the surroundings and knocked the group of young people down. Screams could be heard incessantly.

As if provoked by the screams, the magical beast’s eyes were bloodshot. It let out a cry and charged at the fleeing prey, pouncing on them and biting!!

After a series of tragic screams, the group members of the Beast Sect below the level of a Great Mage were instantly torn apart and bitten to pieces by the murderous magical beast!

These people did not release their magical beasts after they died. It seemed that only those who had reached the Great Archmage realm could obtain the special qualification to be inhabited by magical beasts.

“Squeak”

The berserk rat was covered in blood. After killing a wave of weak people, its originally red eyes became even redder. It let out a cry and charged at the only living person nearby—the person in white!

However, just as the huge beast exploded the beast energy in its body and was about to pounce on the other party and tear him apart again, its huge body suddenly exploded into a ball of blood mist with a bang!!

A faint trace of emotion seemed to appear in the eyes of the person in white, but it instantly returned to the calm and collected look from before. Even the inexplicable sigh became very calm. “Sigh…”

Then, he and his snow fox looked in a certain direction.

“Battle… Ended.”

“Boom!”

At the same time, a loud cry that shook the heavens and the earth could be heard in the distance. The violent aura of the low-level, level-8 humanoid demonic beast had vanished from the world!!

This was… The magical beast guarding the Beast Sect had died!
