The Pastoral Life of a Cultivation Master

Chapter 2949 King Beast

Just as Chen Mo was observing the black mist and the holes below the canyon, the black mist trembled and then gradually collapsed!

Just then, a series of roars came from the black mist, echoing throughout the valley!

What is this? Could something be about to emerge from this black mist?
Chen Mo looked at the black mist and immediately cast various talismans on himself so that if he encountered any strange beasts or couldn't defeat them, he could run away quickly.

Of course, since we don't know what's inside the black mist yet, we're a bit curious and want to see what it will turn into, so we're just staring at it and waiting.

Chen Mo didn't have to wait long before the black mist collapsed inward, transforming into a giant beast floating above the canyon.

This behemoth was no different from an enlarged version of the Beast Leader, who, after his second transformation, was the size of an elephant. This behemoth, however, was like a Tyrannosaurus Rex from ancient times, magnified to twice its size.

This behemoth can be called a kingly beast!
As soon as the mythical beast appeared, it stared at Chen Mo and roared, as if to show its powerful might.

Standing at the edge of the canyon, Chen Mo naturally felt the overwhelming power emanating from the king-like beast. From this power, he sensed that the beast's strength was almost equal to his own. He was quite surprised that it was so powerful.

I never imagined that the gaze I felt while crossing the canyon during the day was that of this king-like beast. But how could this king-like beast be hiding in the black mist? Especially since the black mist floats in the canyon for dozens of kilometers, I really don't know how it transformed into this king-like beast.

Just as Chen Mo was pondering, the king-like beast spat out streams of black mist, as if controlled by something, and flew towards the holes in the canyon.

Just then, the leader of the beasts, dragging his wounded body, emerged from a hole.

After the beast leader roared and then prostrated itself on the ground with a respectful expression, it was clear that the beast leader was submitting to this king-like beast.

The wisps of black mist drifted into the numerous holes and disappeared, while one of them reached the head of the beast leader, who immediately opened his mouth to devour it.

In that instant, the beast leader's wounds gradually healed, and its spirit returned to normal.

The beast leader immediately perked up, roaring loudly, its voice carrying far through the canyon. Roars echoed from within the canyon, as if in response. Then, countless beasts poured out of the holes in the canyon floor, filling the entire canyon with an overwhelming number of them.

'It seems those strange beasts were probably created by this king-level beast in front of me. Otherwise, so many beasts wouldn't have appeared again.' Chen Mo watched as the beasts ran out and stood on the canyon floor, each one roaring with its head raised, their aura truly overwhelming.

The king-like beast floated above the canyon, seemingly unaffected by the valley's no-fly zone. It listened quietly to the roars of the beasts in the canyon, and after a while, it let out a low growl.

Upon hearing this, the strange beasts on the canyon floor, including their leader, immediately turned around and disappeared into the hole.

Chen Mo was somewhat surprised to see this scene. Instead of coming to cause him trouble, these strange beasts turned around and burrowed into the hole. Did they not intend to fight him?

While he was still pondering, the king-like beast suddenly stood up, raised its head and roared, its eyes fixed on Chen Mo, filled with anger and contempt.

This king-like beast must possess extremely high intelligence, otherwise it wouldn't have such a gaze. Chen Mo thought to himself as he noticed its fixed gaze.

However, since this king-like beast possesses extraordinary intelligence, perhaps I can communicate with it.

So, Chen Mo was about to go up and say hello and chat with it when he didn't expect that this king-level beast would not communicate with him at all. It simply lowered its head, pointed its sharp horn at Chen Mo, and then its limbs flew up and charged towards him in an instant.

"What the hell? Is this even reasonable? Why are they just resorting to such drastic measures without saying a word?" Chen Mo grumbled, quickly and cautiously responding. There was no other way; this king-level beast was different from the other beast leader. This king-level beast was far more powerful.

The entire body of the mythical beast was suspended in the air above the canyon. However, as the beast's sharp, powerful, and robust limbs stepped through the void, dark clouds instantly appeared, supporting its strides and propelling it forward.

The sound of their footsteps echoed through the canyon, like the rumble of thunder in the sky as a thunderstorm was about to break.

"Boom! Boom!..." The sounds not only traveled far, but the entire canyon seemed to tremble.

Even the ground where Chen Mo stood was shaken by the vibrations from his footsteps, causing the dust and small stones on the ground to tremble.

Although the description of this king-like beast's running was quite loud, in the blink of an eye, it was already in front of Chen Mo, its sharp horn on its forehead already at him. If Chen Mo couldn't dodge, he would definitely be torn to pieces by the king-like beast.

Fortunately, Chen Mo reacted quickly, dodging the impact in a flash. He then gripped the jade sword with both hands and swung it to attack the beast's hind leg joints.

The beast was incredibly tall, like a multi-story building, with thick, powerful, and long limbs. Compared to it, Chen Mo was like a tiny kitten; in terms of size, he was completely overwhelmed by this king-like beast, there was no comparison. Because of this, if Chen Mo didn't jump, he could only attack the joints of the beast's limbs, which was only within his reach when wielding his jade sword.

With a clang, sparks flew. The king-like beast's forelimb was struck by Chen Mo's longsword.

However, to Chen Mo's surprise, the longsword struck the beast as if it had hit a metal plate, producing a trail of sparks and lightning, but the beast's joints remained unharmed, only showing a white mark.

"How is this possible!" In an instant, Chen Mo's expression changed, and he immediately dodged backward.

The Azure Jade Sword was his natal magic weapon, and it was incredibly powerful. Later, he added treasures such as Heavenly Gold Sand and refined it a second time, making it exceptionally sharp. It was almost impossible for it not to cut or pierce anything.

Unexpectedly, when facing this king-level beast today, he couldn't even pierce its scales, which was beyond Chen Mo's imagination.

Chen Mo quickly retreated, but the king-level beast, though enormous, was extremely agile. Upon seeing him retreat, it abruptly stopped and charged towards Chen Mo again.

They were determined to kill Chen Mo.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mo seized the opportunity, pushed off with his legs, took a step, dodged, and then thrust his sword again, aiming for the beast's hind limbs.

But the result remained unchanged; it still failed to pierce the scales of this king-like beast, and apart from a burst of sparks, nothing else changed.

"Damn it, this beast's defense is so strong, it's not easy to deal with!" Chen Mo muttered, dodging the beast's attack once again.

To Chen Mo's surprise, the beast charged at him several times without hitting him, then stopped, its eyes glowing red as it stared at him.

"Don't look at me like that. If you attack me, I'll naturally dodge," Chen Mo said with a chuckle when he saw the king-level beast staring at him.

The mythical beast suddenly lowered its head, and just as Chen Mo thought it was about to charge again, a sharp spike flashing with dark light arrived in front of Chen Mo in an instant, like lightning.

The spikes emitted a foul stench, were entirely jet black and shiny, as thick as an adult man's forearm, yet over three meters long, with their tips radiating a deep blue light.

With a loud "boom," the spike struck Chen Mo, causing all his defensive talismans to collapse.

Fortunately, when Chen Mo was attacked, the golden arm guard that he had been nurturing above his dantian appeared instantly and blocked the spike.

The force of the spikes striking the golden arm guard sent him staggering back several dozen steps.

Although this king-level beast was not much weaker than Chen Mo, it was far larger than Chen Mo, so there was no need to say more about its strength; they were simply incomparable.

When Chen Mo saw the spikes' powerful and heavy attack, he knew that today was going to be a bit troublesome!

If it weren't for the golden arm guards protecting him, he might have been injured or even killed.

Therefore, the appearance of this strange beast made Chen Mo put away his previous arrogance and decide once again that he must be the sixth one in the family and not try to stand out, otherwise he might be defeated by something.

Damn beast.

Before Chen Mo could even complain, he immediately equipped his arms with the golden arm guards, then used his hands to protect his head, deflecting the three spikes that came his way one by one.

Although he was knocked back quite a distance by the impact of the force, the golden arm guards were powerful enough to deflect all three spikes without allowing them to hit his body.

These gold arm guards are wonderful. I'm so grateful for the gift from that Cambodian man named Zu Limin. Without his gift, I might have already been breached and injured!
Taking advantage of a lull in the spike attack, Chen Mo swung his jade sword and struck at one of the incoming spikes.

"Clang!" The two collided, producing another metallic clanging sound, and then nothing more!
The spike merely veered off course, and his hands trembled slightly from the force of the impact. The power attached to the spike was immense; if he were to chop down ten or so more spikes, he might completely deplete his true energy.

While complaining, Chen Mo protected himself with both hands to defend against the attacks of the sharp spikes, and his mind was racing, trying to figure out how to deal with the current situation.

A streak of dark light flashed, and the tail of the king-like beast came straight at Chen Mo's face like a rapidly flying javelin.
