Chapter 176: The Beast-Taming Mountain Patriarch
Chapter 176: The Beast-Taming Mountain Patriarch
Not far away, witnessing this scene, both Feng Xu and Elder Yun felt a shiver in their hearts. Without hesitation, they turned around and transformed into two streaks of light, fleeing.
If even the Thunder Lion can be pinned down and beaten, this is insane! They can't afford to provoke such a maniac!
It seems that the only option is to get the Patriarch to take action. The Patriarch is a Saint, and only he can subdue Su Zhan!
With this in mind, they headed towards the cave of the Patriarch within the Beast-taming Mountain.
At this moment, dozens of miles away, the hundreds of disciples from the Beast-taming Mountain who had been watching were dumbfounded.
"I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it myself. I actually saw our guardian spirit beast, the Thunder Lion, being pinned down and beaten by a human! I must be so confused from my cultivation that I'm having illusions!"
"But I saw it too, and it doesn't seem like an illusion Even the two Elders fled!"
"It's not an illusion. There really is a human in this world with such incredible physical strength, capable of pinning the Thunder Lion down and beating it?"
"Whether we believe it or not doesn't matter anymore. That person has indeed done it!"
"Damn it! Who said earlier that this person is a monster, and their most powerful method is using their eyes to kill others? Aren't these punches much more impressive than all those flashy things?"
"Exactly! In my opinion, this is clearly an extremely abnormal body cultivator!"
Sounds of shock rang out.
Thirty miles away, the disciples were filled with fear and astonishment. They retreated ten more miles before they dared to watch again.
At the entrance of the Patriarch's cave within the Beast-taming Mountain, Elder Yun and Feng Xu informed the young gatekeeper of their purpose.
After waiting for a moment, they followed the young disciple into the cave.
They entered a bright hall.
As soon as they saw the elderly man with white hair seated in the main position of the hall, both of them knelt down with great respect. "Greetings, Patriarch!"
"I heard you have important matters to discuss with me, involving the life and death of the Beast-taming Mountain?" The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch spoke indifferently. "Then speak up. If it's just trivial matters disturbing my cultivation, you know well what the consequences will be."
"We would never dare to trouble Patriarch without good reason!"
Both of them trembled inwardly.
Feng Xu took the lead and said, "Patriarch! Someone has come to our Beast-taming Mountain and killed our Elder at the Dragon-Fish Realm!"
"Oh? Such audacity?"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch appeared somewhat surprised.
"Not only that! This person, over a dozen days ago, also killed three other Elders of our Beast-taming Mountain! It can be said that he is the sworn enemy of our Beast-taming Mountain!" Feng Xu's face was filled with boundless resentment. However, he deliberately avoided mentioning the matter of his nephew Feng Yue and continued, "At the time, the Sect Master was wary of his strength and did not immediately take action against him. Unexpectedly, this person was so arrogant that he actually came to our doorstep today. Without saying a word, he killed one of our Elders!"
"This person has gone too far!"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch's expression turned cold. "What is his strength?"
"He's very powerful! Stronger than an average Half-Saint!"
"Stronger than an average Half-Saint? Then why didn't you use the guardian Thunder Lion against him?"
"We did!"
"And you still couldn't defeat him?"
"Patriarch, even the Thunder Lion was subdued by him!"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch's eyes widened slightly. "Is this person also a powerful beast tamer?"
"Well"
Feng Yue and Elder Yun exchanged a glance.
Finally, Elder Yun arched his hand and said, "Patriarch, to be precise, the Thunder Lion was overwhelmed."
Feng Xu also quickly added, "Yes, yes! This person's physical strength is extremely terrifying. He has cultivated a special body refining technique, and his body shines with starlight. With a single punch, not even the Thunder Lion could withstand it! He is undoubtedly a powerful body cultivator!"
"To achieve such power with a single punch"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch pondered for a moment, then said solemnly, "Has he achieved the Saint realm?"
"Absolutely not!"
"In fact, I sensed his realm, and it seems to be only the fourth transformation of the Dragon-Fish Realm!"
Both of them shook their heads.
"Just the fourth transformation of the Dragon-Fish Realm, and he can defeat the Thunder Lion"
A glint of astonishment flashed in the eyes of the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch. Such a genius was undoubtedly a rare find.
At present, there was no promising disciple among his followers. It might be a good idea to take this person as his only direct disciple. In the future, if the disciple became powerful, wouldn't he, as the master, also enjoy the benefits?
As for those Elders who had been killed
If he could truly take such a genius as his disciple, even if the Beast-taming Mountain's Sect Master died, it wouldn't matter much!
With a somewhat excited heart, the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch said, "Alright, since you speak so highly of this person, I will accompany you to meet him!"
"Thank you, Patriarch!" Feng Xu expressed his gratitude with excitement.
Although Elder Yun felt that Feng Xu might be provoking and intensifying hostility towards Su Zhan, considering that Su Zhan had indeed positioned himself against the Beast-taming Mountain, he refrained from saying much at the moment.
Soon, guided by the two, the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch headed towards Little Cloud Moutain.
After about half an hour.
Little Cloud Moutain.
Suddenly, a grand path of clouds and mist appeared in the sky!
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch trod on the path of clouds and mist. With each step, his body moved nearly a hundred meters forward, and beneath his feet, another hundred meters of the cloud and mist path appeared!
His entire presence exuded an aura that was completely otherworldly.
"It's the Saint Patriarch!"
"Oh my! I'm actually lucky enough to see the Patriarch!"
"If the Patriarch is taking action, then no matter how formidable that person is, it's pointless!"
"A Saint! The Patriarch is a Saint! Transcendent into the Saint realm, those who haven't reached this realm are mere mortals. How could mortals possibly contend with a Saint!"
Seeing the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch stepping on the path of clouds and mist and approaching, all the disciples of the Beast-taming Mountain were stirred!
Su Zhan's gaze also sharpened as he looked at the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch.
A Saint!
In the eastern region, such figures existed only in legends!
Beside him, the Thunder Lion was licking its wounds. Upon seeing the arrival of the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch, a look of joy appeared in its eyes, as if it believed that it would be rescued soon.
Ten seconds later.
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch stood on the path of clouds and mist above the plaza. His gaze swept over the scene below and finally landed on Su Zhan, "You're Su Zhan? You're the one who killed our Beast-taming Mountain Elders and injured our Guardian Beast?"
"Yes." Su Zhan nodded in acknowledgment.
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch's gaze narrowed, "Very well, you killed our Beast-taming Mountain Elders, injured our Guardian Beast, and you dare to admit it so openly"
Hearing the words of the Saint Patriarch, both Elder Yun and Feng Xu let out a sigh of relief. Especially Feng Xu, who had an expression of vindication.
Since the Patriarch spoke this way, the next line would probably be something like "You truly don't know your limits."
The Thunder Lion also grew more excited. Its tail swayed slightly, and tears welled up in its eyes.
Fantastic! The Patriarch is finally going to avenge me!
This human is so despicable. Should I suggest to the Patriarch not to be too lenient and just kill him? Or maybe I should just crush him under my paw! No, it's better to bite him to death! Perhaps I can use my claws to break his bones one by one!
As the Thunder Lion contemplated how to seek revenge and redress its grievances, it saw the Patriarch in the sky smiling and saying: "I appreciate your candor. How about becoming my one and only direct disciple? I will pass on all my lifelong skills to you!"
