CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 14: THE APPEARANCE OF A SIXTH-TIER DEMON BEAST

After the third wave of demon beasts appeared, Yun Ran and Zhuo Tingqiu did not go down, and Hua Shiyu also stayed on the city wall, watching Si Lin and the others slaughtering all directions. Although they were very excited, there was some regret because their cultivation was insufficient and they could not participate.

Compared to Zhuo Tingqiu and Yun Ran, Hua Shiyu thought of more.

He was a prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, his mother’s concubine was favored in front of the Emperor, and he himself had a significant position in front of the Emperor. To say he had no thoughts about the throne would definitely be a lie!

Over the years, with the help of his maternal family, he had met many capable people and specialists. Seeing Si Lin and the others being so powerful, he couldn’t help but develop a desire to make connections. If he could get to know Si Lin and the others and become friends with them, getting the throne would definitely be much simpler!

He glanced at Yun Ran and Zhuo Tingqiu, knowing that the two of them were acquainted with Si Lin and the others. He pursed his lips, resisted the urge to step forward, and told himself that now was not the time.

This time, Si Lin and the others took about the same time as before. Just after they returned to the city wall and rested for less than a quarter of an hour, the fourth wave of demon beasts arrived.

In addition to some low-level demon beasts, this time, the Fierce Cloud Leopard King and Blood Python also appeared.

As soon as the two sixth-level peak demon beasts appeared, the people on the city wall widened their eyes.

"What are those two demon beasts? It looks like the other demon beasts seem to listen to them!" Yun Ran asked softly, standing next to Gu Qingqing.

"Those are the Fierce Cloud Leopard King and Blood Python, the most powerful demon beasts in the Youyue Forest." Rong Ye, who happened to be standing on the other side of Gu Qingqing, explained upon hearing Yun Ran’s words.

"Sixth-level demon beasts!" Yun Ran widened his eyes and involuntarily exclaimed.

Standing next to Yun Ran, Zhuo Tingqiu was also in disbelief. It was known that sixth-level demon beasts were already among the top tier of demon beasts on the Xuantian Continent, generally not appearing easily. Moreover, ordinary people rarely encountered them, and even if they did, it would often result in bad outcomes.

Liuyue City didn’t know what kind of sin it had committed to not only be suddenly attacked by demon beasts but now even face two sixth-level peak demon beasts. If it weren’t for Gu Qingqing and the others being here, Liuyue City might really be doomed!

Due to limited space on the city wall, Hua Shiyu stood about five meters away from Gu Qingqing and the others, and he also heard the conversation between Yun Ran and Rong Ye. Upon learning that the two demon beasts at the far end were sixth-level, his pupils involuntarily contracted, and his breathing became rapid and tense.

Although the first three waves of demon beasts were relatively easy to deal with, sixth-level demon beasts were already top-tier on the Xuantian Continent. Hua Shiyu couldn’t help but look towards Si Lin and the others, wondering if they could handle these two demon beasts, though he doubted it. After all, even if Si Lin and the others were strong, they would at most have sixth-level peak cultivation, and dealing with sixth-level peak demon beasts should still be quite challenging!

Si Lin and the others’ expressions remained unchanged upon seeing the two demon beasts, as they had already sensed their presence. Comparatively speaking, they were more concerned about the situation within the Youyue Forest. Being able to command two sixth-level peak demon beasts, the things in the Youyue Forest were definitely not simple, very likely something that transcended the Xuantian Continent!

As the sky gradually brightened, Si Lin glanced at the other few people and slowly spoke, "These two sixth-level demon beasts... I’ll handle them with Nan Hua. Azhao, Mu Chen, and Xiao Wu, continue to assist Qingqing in attacking. Let’s resolve this quickly. I suspect there’s an even stronger existence in the Youyue Forest, which may contribute a bit of strength to Qingqing’s seal."

"I understand." Yue Zhao nodded, looked in the direction of the Youyue Forest, and immediately flew into the air, the piano sound filled with murderous intent reverberating once again.

Nan Hua nodded slightly, and the enlarged Glazed Frost Flower Fan returned to its previous size. With a tap of his toe, he charged towards the Fierce Cloud Leopard King, the pressure from his body increasing continuously, directly surpassing the sixth-level peak.

Mu Chen and Rong Ye exchanged glances and nodded. Mu Chen once again charged into the demon beast crowd, scattering the powder he had prepared, while Rong Ye returned to Yue Zhao’s side. The Heavenly Awakening Record floated in the air, talismans continuously flying out from it, heading towards the demon beast crowd below, creating explosions one after another.

Si Lin turned back, glanced at Gu Qingqing, lowered his head slightly, and tidied her slightly disheveled tassels, "Qingqing, take care of yourself. If you can’t handle it, retreat early. Don’t act recklessly!"

Gu Qingqing nodded, indicating she understood, then also descended from the city wall and charged into the demon beast crowd with the Mixed Immortal Silk in hand.

Si Lin brandished the Dragon Capturing Sword and rushed towards the Blood Python.

Compared to other demon beasts, the Blood Python’s body was the longest, roughly about fifty meters. At this moment, its snake head was raised high, a pair of green vertical pupils fixedly staring at Si Lin, snake tongue flicking incessantly, eyes filled with surprise and murderous intent.

The Blood Python had not expected the young man before it to have cultivation not inferior to the sixth-level peak and had even realized his own Dao to perfection. Encountering such a human, the Blood Python would typically avoid a direct confrontation, but remembering the nine-headed serpent within Youyue Forest waiting for it to bring back food, a flash of fear crossed its eyes, forcing it to bravely advance rather than retreat.

Si Lin faced the Blood Python quite calmly, despite the size disparity causing him no difficulty. This was because his movement technique was even more refined than Gu Qingqing’s, reaching a point of near perfection. To swiftly eliminate the Blood Python, he hardly suppressed his movement technique at all, making it almost impossible for the Blood Python to capture his position.

Conversely, he constantly appeared in unexpected places on the Blood Python’s body, leaving a mark each time. Before long, the Blood Python’s surface was covered with wounds, yet it couldn’t harm Si Lin at all, driving it into a frenzy.

For a demon beast like the Blood Python to cultivate to the sixth-level peak, it often possessed its own innate divine ability, which for the Blood Python was its poisonous liquid. This liquid not only had strong corrosive properties but also carried a peculiar scent. Anyone who smelled it would quickly become paralyzed and then eaten.

It spat out its poisonous liquid at Si Lin; naturally, Si Lin had to evade, but that peculiar scent quickly spread. Si Lin, constantly on guard against the Blood Python, blocked his sense of smell as it released its poison, rendering the effect entirely useless against him.

The demon beasts nearby, however, were neither as clever nor as lucky. When they smelled the Blood Python’s poison, their bodies soon lost all feeling and became immobilized, frozen in place.

Noticing this, Si Lin became even more cautious, his attack speed increasing by a few degrees.

With the Blood Python thoroughly enraged, beginning to rampage recklessly, disregarding everything, Si Lin finally reached its side. The Dragon Capturing Sword in his hand suddenly extended, piercing into the seven-inch point of the Blood Python. The frenzied Blood Python’s body stiffened and twitched twice. As Si Lin withdrew his sword, it collapsed onto the ground.
