Chapter 271 - Battle Erupted (1)
"Be careful. He's the peak Saint Profound Beast." Yun Lintian sent a message to Qin Yiran through sound transmission. At the same time, he was ready to activate the killing formation.
Qin Yiran's expression turned heavy. The strength of the Heaven Profound Beast and the Saint Profound Beast was a world apart. With her current strength, she was totally powerless against it.
"Hey, hey. Why are you so nervous? I haven't done anything yet." Abyssal Devourer spread his arms in a relaxed manner. His face was full of a friendly smile, as though he didn't treat Yun Lintian and Qin Yiran as his enemy.
"Are you the ruler of this place?" Yun Lintian asked while secretly scanning the vicinity in case there were others beside Abyssal Devourer nearby.
"Am I?" Abyssal Devourer chuckled playfully. He obviously noticed Yun Lintian's movement. "You don't have to peek around. There's no one except me here."
"I'll create a chance for you to escape. The surveillance formation in the outer area should be working fine. You can look for help from the academy." Yun Lintian sent another sound transmission to Qin Yiran.
"We can't. Once the spatial formation has been activated, it won't work again until the next month. Even if we successfully escaped from here, it's still useless. They couldn't come to rescue us." Qin Yiran explained.
"Oi! What are you two chitchatting about? Why don't you tell me too?" Abyssal Devourer clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
Yun Lintian's gaze never left Abyssal Devourer for all this time. He didn't react to Abyssal Devourer but asked Qin Yiran. "Are you ready? I'll activate the formation."
Qin Yiran said nothing, but the fighting spirit in her eyes was evident.
"Judging from your strength, you should be a high-level member of the Poison Valley, am I correct?" Yun Lintian asked while preparing to activate the formation's eyes.
"Oh? You know about us?" Abyssal Devourer was surprised slightly. He hadn't left this Fallen Dragon Forest for a thousand years. Hence, he didn't know much about the outside situation.
"Of course. Let me tell you how famous your Poison Valley is." Yun Lintian said with a mocking smile. "In these past years, your Poison Valley has done nothing but hide like a coward. Whenever they see us, they would either run away with their tails between their legs or kill themselves like a fool… I must say, why don't they just change the name to Fraidy-Cat Valley instead?"
A frown appeared on Abyssal Devourer's face. Obviously, he knew Yun Lintian tried to provoke him, but he believed there was some truth within his words… Has my Poison Valley fallen to this extent?
Seeing Abyssal Devourer distracted, Yun Lintian didn't hesitate to stomp his foot on the formation's eyes to activate it. Instantaneously, everything in this area was illuminated with white light, forming into a vast dome and covering Abyssal Devourer in the sky.
At the same time, countless profound lights appeared in the dome and transformed into a sword shape. With Yun Lintian's command, all of them promptly shot at Abyssal Devourer in a split second.
Abyssal Devourer's eyes narrowed as he looked at the incoming sword lights. The formation's power was exceeded his estimation. Without a doubt, any early level of Saint Profound Realm would fall under this formation's attack.
Abyssal Devourer quickly opened his mouth. The previous human's mouth suddenly transformed into a hideous giant beast's mouth with several sharp teeth. In the next moment, all the incoming sword lights were sucked into his mouth, wholly disappeared just like that.
Yun Lintian was stunned for a moment and swiftly reacted by sending another round of attack to Abyssal Devourer. "Second step!"
This time, the sword lights were even denser and sharper than before. They were also infused with the fire and lightning attributes. The destructive power had increased more than twice from the first step.
Once again, Abyssal Devourer exerted his strength, increasing the suction power, and entirely swallowed all the sword lights with no problem.
Qin Yiran did not stand idle. During this short period, she had gathered all of her power into a large Spiritual Sword Intent in front of her. If Yang Chen was here, he would be extremely shocked to see this scene. Qin Yiran's talent in the way of the sword wasn't inferior to him at all. She was well deserved to be the number one genius in this generation.
"I'll create a chance for you!" Yun Lintian activated the third step while gathering his profound energy on White Dragon Spear. In his opinion, there should be a limit on Abyssal Devourer's devour ability. He wanted to see whether Abyssal Devourer could devour his attack.
Yun Lintian unleashed his profound energy to the maximum. The sparks of fire and lightning suddenly appeared around his body and his spear. He took a deep breath, and his eyes overflowed with murderous intent.
Five Elements Spear Art, Lightning Blaze Dragon!
Yun Lintian mustered all of his strength into White Dragon Spear and threw it at Abyssal Devourer. The spear instantly turned into a giant fire and lightning dragon, accompanied by a ferocious dragon's cry, rushing straight at Abyssal Devourer's head while ignoring the powerful suction force.
"Not good." A sense of danger emerged within Abyssal Devourer's heart when he saw the fire and lightning dragon coming toward him. As the sword lights from the third step surrounded him, he was forced to retain his devouring power. Otherwise, he would definitely become a sieve in the next moment.
Abyssal Devourer turned his palm, and a small black ball appeared on it. The black ball went out of his palm with a flick and shot at the incoming fire and lightning dragon.
Boom!
The collision between the purest Abyssal Energy and Yun Lintian's fire and lightning dragon instantly turned all the surrounding trees and boulders into nothingness.
Yun Lintian had to conjure profound defense around himself and Qin Yiran to avoid being swept away by the impact. At this moment, he shouted. "Now!"
Qin Yiran quickly sent her Spiritual Sword Intent almost at the same time as Yun Lintian's shouting. The large sword shape flashed across the space in a split second and went straight to Abyssal Devourer's head!
