Chapter 190 - 190: Beast Wave (2)
Leading the pack were the five Platinum Realm beasts and right behind them were the Gold Realm beasts.
When the young geniuses saw the beasts appear through the foliage, all of them suddenly became tense since Lin Fan had been right.
There were indeed five Platinum Realm beasts and plenty of Gold Realm beasts behind them.
They had been skeptical at first, but now they couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with looks of admiration. This man's scouting abilities really were too strong.
But thinking about how Lin Fan was the first to find Yu Wang, this didn't seem that surprising.
They had all overlooked this, but Yu Wang had been in a decently well hidden place, but Lin Fan had easily found him. This meant that Lin Fan definitely had some special scouting ability.
When Lin Fan saw the Platinum Realm beasts coming through the forest, he wasn't worried at all. Like Brainy had said, these were all low Platinum Realm beasts, they could be easily taken care of with a flip of his hand.
While Lin Fan was calm, the others couldn't remain as calm as him.
Once the Platinum Realm beasts were close enough, Yue Jin picked out one of the Platinum Realm beasts and drew back the string of his bow. He hadn't notched an arrow onto the string beforehand, but that wasn't a problem
As he pulled back on the string, wisps of wind gathered between the bowstring and the riser, creating an arrow made purely of wind laws. The arrow took form more and more until it was a complete arrow, at which point Yue Jin released the bowstring in his right hand.
With a large gust, the arrow of wind lays flew out at the Platinum Realm beast at the far right.
The arrow didn't falter at all as it created a perfect arc in the air, aimed right at the head of the Platinum Realm beast.
This was a rabbit type beast called a Gale Rabbit, so it was quite small compared to the other Platinum Realm beasts, but that didn't mean it was any weaker.
When the Gale Rabbit saw the arrow flying right for its head, it gradually slowed down before coming to a full stop.
The Gale Rabbit didn't hesitate as it faced the arrow of wind laws head on, gathering its own wind laws around its front fangs, creating a tornado around its teeth. It just waited for the wind law arrow to approach before chomping right down on it.
When the fang of the Gale Rabbit hit the arrowhead of the wind law arrow, there was a giant gust of wind that was created around it, pushing back the beasts around the Gale Rabbit. The fang and the arrow clashed for a few seconds before the fang completely bit right through the arrow, shattering it into tiny wisps of wind.
This result was one that no one was surprised about, but there was still something surprising about the behaviour of the Gale Rabbit.
When the Gale Rabbit had stopped to take Yue Jin's arrow, around two hundred beasts behind it had also stopped, waiting for the confrontation to finish. Those two hundred beasts just stood there and waited while the rest of the beast wave charged right at them, following the other four Platinum Realm beasts to charge at their group.
This showed that this wasn't just a normal beast wave, it was a beast wave that was led by five intelligent Platinum Realm beasts. What this meant was that this was an intentional beast wave and there was still a traitor among them.
They all looked around at each other, but they didn't have time to cast any doubts since the beast wave was already upon them.
Yue Jin immediately moved back with his sister Yue Yin guarding him from the Gold Realm beasts that approached. During all of this, Yue Jin continued to fire off arrows that kept the Gale Rabbit controlled portion of the beast wave at bay.
As for Lin Fan and Angela, they clashed directly with the four Platinum Realm beasts with the transformed Xiao Huo and Xiao Lei supporting them.
Lin Fan picked a bear type Platinum Realm beast called a Charge Bear which was famous for its mighty charges. However, that charge didn't work at all against Lin Fan and his law of power.
Lin Fan met the Charge Bear head first with a palm that was covered in golden glow.
The Charge Bear tried to push forward, but no matter how much it tried, it couldn't make Lin Fan take a single step back. The Charge Bear knew that this wouldn't work, so it pulled its head back as it brought its claws up off the ground.
The claws were also covered with a golden glow which was the law of power, slashing down right at Lin Fan.
When Lin Fan felt the Charge Bear retreat back, he could already guess what it was planning to do. As the Charge Bear reared back, standing up on two feet, preparing to smash its claws right down on Lin Fan, he also brought his fists back.
The Charge Bear was more than over three meters tall, which was a whole meter taller than Lin Fan, so its claws came down as it tried to smash Lin Fan with them.
As the claws fell down, Lin Fan punched upwards with both hands covered in a golden glow aimed right at the claws of the Charge Bear.
The fists met the pads of the paw and after a few seconds of even clashing, the claws of the Charge Bear were actually pushed back and the Charge Bear went down. The main deciding factor in this was the suction force that Lin Fan naturally had which absorbed part of the Charge Bear's law of power and supplemented it to his own.
However, the Charge Bear was surprisingly agile even with its large figure, using the momentum of this pushback to fall into a backflip.
After the backflip, the Charge Bear landed once again on two feet, raising its claws in front of it in a martial arts stance.
During this entire process, there was another Platinum Realm beast that was backing the Charge Bear up.
This was a fire red lizard with a transparent red crystal on its back that had a flame inside of it. This fire red lizard was a Drake Lizard, which was said to be descendant from the legendary Fire Dragons.
This Drake Lizard actually did have a trace of the dragon bloodline in it, as evident by the flame that was inside the crystal on its back.
This Drake Lizard tried to follow up on the Charge Bear, blowing out a breath of flames right at Lin Fan after the Charge Bear had been sent flying.
These flames contained the power of the dragon bloodline, making them much stronger than normal flames, but that didn't matter since they never reached Lin Fan.
Xiao Huo was already prepared as it also breathed out flames that clashed against the flames of the Drake Lizard.
The flames of the Drake Lizard only contained a trace of the dragon bloodline, while Xiao Huo's flames contained the power of the full phoenix bloodline. The phoenix bloodline was one of the legendary bloodlines that could match the dragon bloodline, but there was a large difference in bloodline concentration between the two.
Xiao Huo's flames easily dispersed the flames of the Drake Lizard, but it didn't continue to attack the Drake Lizard as Xiao Huo had held back based on Lin Fan's instructions.
Both Lin Fan and Xiao Huo had only used strength equal to the low Platinum Realm, but both of them had their innate qualities that made their attacks stronger than their enemies, giving them the upper hand.
On the other side, Angela and Xiao Lei were both dealing with their own matches.
Angela was currently fighting a bird type Platinum Realm beast called the Cyclone Condor.
This was a Platinum Realm beast that could fly naturally, but it became even faster since it utilized the power of the wind laws. But even if that was the case, it still couldn't keep up to Angela when it came to speed.
The Cyclone Condor threw wind blades one after the other which Angela kept dodging with ease before sending out her own wind blades which the Cyclone Condor couldn't dodge at all. But of course, Angela also held back her power, so each of these wind blades only dealt minor injuries to the Cyclone Condor, covering it with small cuts all over its body.
The main difference between the two of them was naturally their control of wind laws. Angela was just at a much higher level of comprehension compared to the Cyclone Condor.
Finally Xiao Lei was fighting a Volt Volpi, which was an electric fox type beast.
Both of them summoned their lightning to send bolts at each other, but Xiao Lei's lightning easily crushed the lightning of the Volt Volpi since there was a large disparity in bloodlines between them.
As for the rest of the Gold Realm beasts that came with the Platinum Realm beasts, most of the stronger ones stayed with the Platinum Realm beasts and provided support. While the weaker Gold Realm beasts led the Silver, Bronze, and Iron Realm beasts to attack the young geniuses.
The young geniuses didn't have much trouble fighting them since most of the peak and high Gold Realm beasts were being occupied by Lin Fan's group of four, so most of them were only fighting mid Gold Realm Beasts with a few high Gold Realm Beasts. As geniuses, naturally they were much stronger than enemies with the same realm of cultivation, so they had no problem with their enemies.
They also summoned their pets and auxiliary pets to deal with the other scattered beasts around them.
Just like this, the two sides clashed and surprisingly an equilibrium was formed.
