The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"So the guy Ember was talking about who could give me so much fun was you!"

"Boom!"

The combined activation of the Evil Eye and the Divine Eye generated elemental power that even stained the young master's greyish-white suit black.

"Roar!"

Sensing that the human before him possessed an aura no less imposing than his own, the Golden King Beast roared and flew out completely from the dissolving spatial rift.

Its body was long and huge, and its sharp, raised scales exuded an aura of chaos and collapse, as if the legendary beast sealed away had come to life.

The Golden King Beast was vastly different from ordinary creatures; it resembled a wolf, yet moved with the agility of a snake. It coiled in the sky, making the already dim world even more gloomy, and casting a shadow of melancholy over the very light that enveloped all who beheld it.

"Woo——"

The howls of the wolves echoed above. When the young master looked up, he saw three floating, earthen-yellow wolf heads around the body of the Golden King Beast.

"Sususu!"

The moment the three wolf heads materialized, they set their sights on the young master below. As soon as they took shape, they eagerly opened their blood-red maws and lunged at the young master.

"Rock element?" The young master saw three wolf heads whistling overhead, and his elemental vision told him that they were creations of the rock element.

Realizing this, the young master decisively transformed his bow into a sword and slashed at the oncoming wolf head first.

"boom!"

When the twin blades imbued with abundant lightning element met the wolf's head formed from condensed rock element, the purple blade light flashed and the wolf's head disintegrated into fine sand.

"Shhhh!" Before the smoke from the shattered wolf head had dissipated, the sound of sand and gravel flying everywhere drowned out everything and reached the young master's ears.

The golden beast in the sky began to spin erratically, and under the influence of the rock element it emitted, the surrounding sand and stones spun along with its body.

In just a few breaths, a sandstorm appeared on the open plain, even more obscuring the view than the previous thick fog.

"Heh, you think you can hit me just because of the wide range?" With sand and dust about to engulf him, the young master leaped back step by step, quickly moving away from the flat ground.

If you can jump to the hillside next to the flat land, then the nearby low hills will be the best sand barrier.

The young master turned and retreated, rushing towards the hillside not far away. However, it was clear that the Golden King Beast wouldn't let him have his way.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that it unleashed the sandstorm precisely to await this moment.

"Whoosh!"

A flash of light appeared in the sandstorm where nothing could be seen, followed by a solid beam of yellow and white light that pierced through the sandstorm and headed straight for the young master.

"What a clever beast!" The young master's back stiffened, and he quickly turned around to look. The thick beam of light was already approaching his face.

"Humph!"

Seeing that there was no time to dodge, the young master crossed his arms and held his two swords in front of his arms, assuming a defensive posture.

"Om-"

The beam of light struck the young master with perfect accuracy. However, what puzzled the Golden King Beast was that the beam of light neither shot away into the distance after penetrating the young master's body, nor did it scatter into points of light because the young master's body was too tough.

The beam of light struck the young master, then vanished silently like a river flowing into the sea, without causing the slightest ripple.

"Hmm... I don't often use parrying as a technique, but that doesn't mean I'm not proficient in it."

The young master glanced down at the weapon in his hand, which was imbued with immense elemental power. The elemental power on it was so vast that it was constantly pulsating, as if it would lose control and go berserk at any moment.

"I prefer to take the initiative rather than wait for the enemy to give me an opportunity."

"Boom!"

With a flick of his arms, the young master completely lost control of the elemental power he had forcibly converted.

The massive lightning element burst forth in a fan shape, spreading uncontrollably into the distance like a flood that had burst its banks, destroying everything in its path.

While this attack method may not be as precise as other techniques in maximizing the power of each elemental force, its speed of release is undeniable.

It's so fast that the person being parried can't even react!

Chapter 482 Golden King Beast

2024-02-12

Although the Golden King Beast is not human, the sweeping waves of lightning element don't care about that.

The sandstorm that rose up was as fragile as paper in the face of the surging elemental power, and could not be stopped in the slightest.

"Zizzizi~"

The sound of lightning scorching solid rock came from within the sandstorm. Soon, the sandstorm, which had blotted out the sky, gradually dissipated as it lost its source of power.

Amidst the flying sand and stones, the golden beast, its body charred black, was revealed.

At this moment, the Golden King Beast's body was crisscrossed with grooves, and its once rock-hard scales were peeling away inch by inch, like sand and gravel that had been weathered for a long time.

Beneath the scales lay the Golden King Beast's constantly writhing and chaotic "flesh."

It seems that even the Golden King Beast would find it difficult to withstand the elemental power equivalent to its own beam.

While the Golden King Beast was covered in wounds, the young master was in no better shape. Forced conversion of a large amount of elemental power caused him excruciating pain all over his body.

Pain alone was not enough to make him care, after all, fighting always inevitably involves injury, and the young master's tolerance for physical pain had reached a level that ordinary people could not reach.

What truly caught the young master's attention was the wound he had sustained from the aftershocks of the beam of light.

"So it really isn't that simple?" The young master saw a wound on his arm, bleeding bright red blood. It was caused by the elemental power that had been accidentally leaked when he first switched the beams.

The wound was only an inch in size and no deeper than a superficial injury. Normally, the young master could recover from such a wound in just a few breaths.

But now, more than a few breaths have passed since the wound appeared, and the wound on the young master's arm is still unchanged.

Not only that, the small wound was still bleeding, staining the young master's entire arm a light red.

"Looks like we need to finish this quickly!" Taking a deep breath, the young master stopped worrying about the wound on his arm.

He could feel a special force dissolving the newly grown flesh, keeping the wound in its original state.

This power was unlike anything the young master had ever seen before. It shouldn't be difficult to get rid of it, but he didn't have the time right now, because the Golden King Beast in the distance wouldn't wait for him.

"call!"

A gust of wind pressure came from above, and the young master dodged it without thinking.

"boom!"

The long, powerful beast tail slammed into the ground like a heavy hammer, shattering the surrounding ground.

"Too slow!" The young master seized the opportunity and, with a burst of speed, transformed into a bolt of lightning, arriving just before the Golden King Beast's tail was about to retract.

Without much hesitation, the young master raised the sharp blade in his hand, causing the elemental power attached to it to rise to a new level.

"Crack!"

The shimmering purple blade paused only briefly on the rocky scales of the Golden King Beast's body before cutting straight in.

"Roar!"

The Golden Beast, in pain, suddenly exerted force with its tail, flinging the young master away.

With a roll to his feet, the young master saw a flashing purple light on the tail of the Golden King Beast—it was the blade he hadn't yet drawn.

"Haha, I never give away my weapons!" The young master couldn't help but laugh when he saw the Golden King Beast's pathetic tail-whipping movements in the air.

He then pulled his arm back, and the blade on the Golden King Beast's tail returned to his hand.

The blade flew out, and the Golden King Beast felt another pang of pain. It turned to look at the young master below and let out another loud wolf howl.

"hold head high--"

This time, the roar was completely devoid of the previous ferocity; on the contrary, it was filled with rage.

"No matter how loudly you howl, it's useless. There are no wolves here." The young master sneered as he saw the Golden King Beast raising its head and roaring.

However, the young master's smile soon faded.

Because wolves really did appear.

Suddenly, cracks appeared in the sky, and then the gray wolf head flew out of the cracks and landed on the ground.

"Why is it three again?" The young master raised an eyebrow as he noticed that the number of wolf heads that flew out was "three" again.

The wolf's head landed on the ground in a triangular shape, just like three nails driven firmly into the ground.

After the wolf beast was driven into the ground, the young master felt the elemental forces around him suddenly become disordered.

The elemental forces in the air were alright, but what truly surprised the young master was the elemental fluctuations underground.

The three wolf heads act like a valve, continuously supplying the elemental power from the earth's veins to the golden king beast in the sky.

The abundant elemental power even overflowed from the Golden King Beast's body, forming a thick elemental shield that resembled corundum.

It's unclear whether the Golden King Beast's inability to move was due to an excessive amount of elemental energy within its body. After the three wolf heads fell to the ground, only its tail remained wagging.

Even though it couldn't move, the Golden King Beast, possessing almost limitless elemental power, unleashed earth-shattering might.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The earth trembled, and elemental projectiles rained down from the sky, creating large craters in the ground.

The young master moved like a fish through the rain of elemental projectiles, and for a time, no attack could hit him.

"This can't go on any longer." The young master dodged the elemental blast flying overhead once again. As soon as the blast hit the ground, the elemental power inside burst out.

The chaotic and violent elemental forces have always been extremely powerful weapons, and the young master, who was caught in the middle, could hardly bear the aftershocks alone.

"Pfft! Flying in the air without moving, huh? Watch me shoot you down!!!"

After enduring several elemental bullets, the young master finally accumulated enough elemental power.

With a wave of his arm, a wide pool of water appeared on the ground. Then, a huge whale with a single horn leaped out of the pool.

Its sharp horn aimed at the body of the Golden King Beast, charging straight at it with unparalleled power.

"Boom!"

The collision between the giant whale and the wolf in the sky created a shockwave that gave people the illusion that the heavens and earth were trembling.

Real rain replaced the falling elemental projectiles, and amidst the cascading mist, the cracked Golden Beast plummeted from the sky to the ground.
