Beast Taming Immortal Clan

Chapter 675 Don't Say You Weren't Warning Me [Please Subscribe]

The phrase "I'll gladly oblige" perfectly showcases Zhou Chun's strong self-confidence.

This also caused the three dragon kings, Fire Dragon King, Thunder Dragon King, and Azure Dragon King, to frown slightly.

They certainly wouldn't think that Zhou Chun, who was able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, would be a blindly arrogant fool.

Therefore, Zhou Chun's strong confidence at this moment made them suspect that there might be some powerful figure backing him up.

Therefore, the Fire Dragon King's powerful divine sense immediately swept across the surrounding void, carefully examining the area within a radius of hundreds of miles several times.

However, even inside the Zhou family's mountain gate, which had already activated its protective array, it did not detect the aura of any fifth-tier being.

This made it somewhat suspicious, not understanding where Zhou Chun's confidence came from.

After a brief silence, it suddenly said in a deep voice, "Good, good courage!"

As he spoke, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice, "Since that's the case, let me see just how much you're capable of!"

Before it finished speaking, a beam of crimson fire shot out from its mouth and flew straight toward Zhou Chundong.

In an instant, Zhou Chun's mind went into a frenzy, and his heart seemed to stop beating.

Without a second thought, he immediately activated the Moon Toad Pearl with all his might, causing it to manifest and emit a rich white ice light to meet the crimson flame.

The clash between ice and fire had already taken place when he fought against Master Ziyang, and at that time it was a close contest.

However, this time, the white ice light was defeated by the crimson fire and quickly collapsed!

The crimson flame broke through the ice with unstoppable force, shattering the white ice light in its path, and finally collided with the [Moon Toad Pearl], the true form of the spiritual treasure.

Perhaps sensing the threat of the crimson flames, the spirit of the Moon Toad Pearl dared not hold back any longer at this dangerous moment, directly unleashing its primal power to forcefully clash with it, and then flew back to Zhou Chun's side with a mournful cry.

The crimson flames finally exhausted their power in this clash, revealing their true form: a long cone-shaped magical artifact forged from a dragon horn.

Judging from its aura, this treasure doesn't seem to be among the spiritual treasures, yet it directly overwhelmed the resistance of the spiritual treasure [Moon Toad Pearl] in the previous battle!

This clearly shows the huge gap between the late Nascent Soul stage and the early Nascent Soul stage!

However, Zhou Chun refused to back down despite losing the fight.

Despite his defenses being shattered in a single blow, he calmly remarked, "Is this the strength of a fifth-tier high-grade demon king? It's even weaker than I expected!"

Hearing his words, the Fire Dragon King was not angry at all. He simply nodded slightly and said, "Although you relied on the advantage of the spiritual treasure, you are not bad for being able to withstand one of my attacks with your early Nascent Soul cultivation."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "However, I only used sixty or seventy percent of my strength just now. If I were to use all my strength, I wonder if you could withstand it!"

As soon as the words were spoken, a bone whip wreathed in crimson flames appeared in its hand.

This bone whip has nine sections and exudes an extremely powerful aura, clearly indicating that it is a demonic treasure!

With the Fire Dragon King's cultivation level, coupled with this spiritual treasure that perfectly suits it, its strength is indeed much greater than when it activated the top-grade magic treasure earlier.

Therefore, Zhou Chun's mind tightened at this moment, and he felt immense pressure.

But his expression remained largely unchanged; he simply replied in a slightly grave voice, "So what if I can handle it? So what if I can't?"

"Good question!"

A sinister smile flashed across the Fire Dragon King's face as he said mockingly, "If you can withstand it, you'll live a little longer; if you can't, you'll die immediately!"

The moment it uttered the word "death," it threw down the nine-section bone whip in its hand.

The treasure immediately split into streaks of fiery red whip-like shadows in the air, striking fiercely towards Zhou Chun.

Faced with the fiery red whip shadows that swept across the sky, Zhou Chun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and a blue-red feather fan appeared in his hand.

He held the feather fan and waved it forward forcefully. Instantly, two powerful streams of spiritual light, one blue and one red, burst forth from the fan, merging together to form a blue-red destructive storm.

The fiery red whip shadows were quickly destroyed and annihilated by the destructive storm formed by the extreme power of wind and fire, leaving only the nine-section bone whip itself still burning brightly and stubbornly resisting.

After a standoff of more than ten breaths, the destructive storm finally ran out of steam and dissipated.

However, the Nine-Section Bone Whip had lost eight or nine tenths of its power in that destructive storm, making it impossible to continue its attack.

This result caused the Fire Dragon King's eyes to narrow, and he was quite surprised.

The Azure Dragon King looked on incredulously, his eyes filled with shock.

Clearly, Zhou Chun's strength had completely exceeded their expectations.

"Another spiritual treasure! Aren't you a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator? Where did you get so many spiritual treasures!"

The Fire Dragon King raised his hand and put the nine-section bone whip back into his hand, expressing his doubts with a surprised tone.

Lingbao is not something you can just get easily.

Even in the human cultivation world, there are cultivators who have reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage but do not possess any spiritual treasures.

If the Fire Dragon King were not a fifth-tier superior-grade dragon king, it would be very difficult for him to obtain a spiritual treasure that suited him.

Therefore, it was very surprised to see Zhou Chun bring out two different spiritual treasures one after another.

Even among late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, such things are rare.

Faced with the Fire Dragon King's surprise and doubt, Zhou Chun calmly replied, "It is true that I am a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator, but who says that a newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivator cannot possess multiple spiritual treasures?"

This answer left the Fire Dragon King speechless.

Meanwhile, the Azure Dragon King chimed in, adding fuel to the fire: "Brother Fire Dragon, why waste your breath on him? As long as we capture him, his magical treasures and secrets will all be ours!"

As it spoke, its gaze was fixed on the [Two Elements Wind and Fire Fan] in Zhou Chun's hand, its eyes filled with greed.

Although the dragon clan is wealthy, there are more fifth-order dragon kings. Only fifth-order high-grade dragon kings like the Fire Dragon King and some fifth-order mid-grade dragon kings can possess spiritual treasures.

If the Azure Dragon King wants to obtain a spiritual treasure that suits it from the Dragon Clan, it would only have a chance if it advanced to the middle grade of the fifth rank.

However, as long as Zhou Chun is killed, two spiritual treasures can be obtained, and the attributes of the [Two Elements Wind and Fire Fan] are quite compatible with it.

How could it not be tempted and filled with greed?

"Brother Qingjiao is right. What do you think, Brother Lei?"

The Fire Dragon King nodded first, then turned his gaze to the fifth-rank, mid-grade Thunder Dragon King.

The Thunder Dragon King hadn't uttered a word since its appearance, but now, when specifically questioned by the Fire Dragon King, it finally spoke in a low voice, "That wicked dragon isn't here. It seems he really has hidden it in another human territory!"

As the king of the Thunder Dragon Clan, it naturally possesses a secret method to sense its fellow clansmen with the same bloodline nearby.

It had already secretly used magic to sense that Lei Jiao Bai Bai had not used any method to hide or isolate its aura, and was indeed no longer in Jing Kingdom.

Upon hearing these words, the Fire Dragon King's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he couldn't help but look at Zhou Chun and say, "Since you sent that evil dragon away, why haven't you left yourself? Or do you think that if you die here, that evil dragon will come back to avenge you?"

Upon hearing this, the Thunder Dragon King looked at Zhou Chun with a puzzled expression.

Zhou Chun's actions were indeed unexpected and left them somewhat bewildered.

Facing the gazes of the three dragon kings, Zhou Chun calmly said, "Since I dared to stay, I naturally have my reasons. As for whether I will die here, I'm afraid the three of you alone are not capable of that!"

"Oh, you're that confident? Just based on these two magical treasures you possess?"

The Fire Dragon King frowned slightly, feeling that Zhou Chun's words were a bit too pretentious.

The huge gap in cultivation level cannot be erased by simply adding a spiritual treasure. It might be possible to replace it with a legendary heaven-reaching spiritual treasure.

However, the Fire Dragon King simply couldn't believe that Zhou Chun possessed a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure!

The Heavenly Treasure is not something that can be obtained so easily.

The Dragon Clan of Longyuanze has a long history, with several sixth-order demon saints appearing in the past, but only two of their Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures have survived to this day.

Of these two heaven-reaching spiritual treasures, one, the Dragon God Pearl, is a treasure passed down through generations and has always been carried by the current Golden Horned Demon Saint.

The other item is a treasure used to suppress the Dragon Palace's secrets, and it is impossible to take it out of the Dragon Palace.

Even among humans who are skilled at crafting treasures, treasures of this level are extremely rare, possessed only by those at the Nascent Soul stage and by some top-tier forces with long-standing traditions.

In fact, the fact that the Moon Wheel Sect suddenly produced the [World-Destroying Moon Wheel], a supreme spiritual treasure, had already shocked the Flood Dragon Clan.

However, after the Golden Horned Demon Saint's explanation, the Fire Dragon King realized that it was not the fully realized Heavenly Treasure. Otherwise, even as a fifth-rank superior dragon king, it would have been difficult for it to survive the power of such a treasure!

To the Fire Dragon King's surprise, just as it was recalling that memory it didn't want to easily relive, Zhou Chun suddenly looked at it and said, "It is said that back then, outside the Moon Wheel Sect's mountain gate, a fifth-tier superior-grade dragon king survived an attack from a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure. That dragon king must be you, sir!"

Upon hearing this, the Fire Dragon King's expression immediately changed.

That experience was arguably the most humiliating and dangerous one it had ever faced since advancing to the fifth-tier superior-grade Flood Dragon King.

Now that Zhou Chun has exposed its shortcomings to its face, how could it possibly have a good attitude?

He immediately glared at Zhou Chun with a fierce look in his eyes and said, "Knowing this all along, you still dare to bring it up in front of me. It seems you really don't want to live!"

Zhou Chun, however, seemed oblivious to the fierce glint in its eyes, simply nodding slightly and saying, "Then it seems I'm right. I just wonder if you were able to escape unscathed last time, and whether you can do so again this time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and a dark blue stone jar suddenly appeared in his hand. Then, as he activated his magic, a profound and mysterious aura emanated from the stone jar.

"This aura..."

The Fire Dragon King's pupils contracted, and his expression instantly became extremely solemn.

Because of its extraordinary status, although it did not have the opportunity to possess the Heavenly Treasure, it had seen such treasures before.

The strange aura rising from the stone jar at this moment, filled with the calm and dignified feeling of time, seemed to be something it had also sensed from the Heavenly Treasure that suppressed the Dragon Palace's foundation.

It is said that the Heavenly Treasure is an ancient artifact that once shone brightly in the war between humans and demons.

Thinking of this, its heart began to pound, and it suddenly felt that it had been somewhat reckless to come here today.

Zhou Chun, holding the stone jar, said in a low voice, "Since I obtained this treasure, I have yet to test its true power due to the limitations of my cultivation. If the three of you wish to try it, I will have no choice but to risk my life to accompany you!"

Upon hearing this, the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King were somewhat bewildered, wondering where he got his confidence from and what nonsense he was spouting.

However, the Fire Dragon King became even more certain of his conjecture.

Then it felt a chill run down its back and immediately blurted out, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, please don't misunderstand, I have no intention of harming you!"

As soon as the words left its mouth, the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King looked at it with surprise, not understanding what it was saying.

However, the Fire Dragon King ignored both of them and looked at Zhou Chun with a smile, saying, "Fellow Daoist Zhou may have misunderstood me. It was I who reached a non-aggression pact with your Human Race Heavenly Spirit Alliance last time. How could I personally break the pact now? How could I explain that to your esteemed Yuan Yang Venerable Senior!"

After saying that, he changed the subject and continued, "The reason I came here this time is simply because I learned that the Thunder Flood Dragon that Fellow Daoist Zhou is cultivating has a pure bloodline and great potential. I would like to invite it back to our clan's sacred land to receive guidance from the Golden Horned Demon Saint, so as not to waste its talent!"

Then, without waiting for Zhou Chun's response, it immediately added, "However, since that Thunder Dragon's kin is not in Jing Kingdom, let's just forget about it. We'll meet again sometime."

"Is that so? It seems I misunderstood."

Zhou Chun smiled faintly, then gazed at the Fire Dragon King and said, "As for the origins of the Silver Dragon King, I think I don't need to elaborate. It grew from a silver lightning python to its current state and has never received any benefit from your dragon clan. In every respect, it has nothing to do with your dragon clan!"

"Therefore, unless it is willing to go to Dragon Abyss Marsh to communicate with other dragons, I, Zhou, do not wish for your dragon clan to use this as an excuse to harass me or the Zhou family again. Otherwise, do not blame me for not warning you!"

Zhou Chun spoke these words with unwavering resolve and an extremely firm tone, revealing immense confidence.

Upon hearing his words, both the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King showed expressions of disbelief.

No one understood where Zhou Chun got the audacity to say such things to them.

What made them even more incredulous was that, after hearing Zhou Chun's forceful words, the Fire Dragon King, though his eyes twitched slightly, still said, "Upon careful consideration, there were indeed many misunderstandings before. After returning to my clan, I will discuss this matter with my fellow clansmen and report to the Demon Saint for a judgment!"

Although this answer did not directly agree with Zhou Chun's words, it was clearly a sign of weakness.

The Fire Dragon King seemed to know this as well. After speaking, he immediately turned to the Azure Dragon King and Thunder Dragon King, who were already somewhat dazed, and said, "My two brothers, since Fellow Daoist Zhou doesn't welcome us, let's not disturb his cultivation any longer. Let's return to the Dragon Palace first!"

So, the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King were completely bewildered as they were practically forced away from the Azure Lotus Mountains by its gaze.

After witnessing the three dragon kings depart and completely disappear from his sight, Zhou Chun finally felt relieved.

He knew in his heart that he had made the right move by taking a risky step.

After today, the threat from the Flood Dragon Clan should be basically eliminated.

Unless the Golden Horned Demon Saint of the Flood Dragon Clan is willing to personally take action and bully him, he will be at a disadvantage.

Otherwise, once that Fire Dragon King brings the news back to the Dragon Clan, few Dragon Kings would dare to risk their lives to cause him trouble.

After all, the fact that the Flood Dragon Clan dared to cause him trouble earlier meant that they were certain he had no means to threaten them.

Even if he escapes from Jingguo, the Jiaolong clan can still annihilate the Zhou family in retaliation.

Would he dare to venture alone into the Dragon Abyss, where a sixth-order demon saint is stationed?

However, if Zhou Chun possesses the trump card and strength to threaten a fifth-tier high-grade dragon king, then these dragon kings of the dragon clan will have to think twice before acting.

Is it really worth risking their lives to cause trouble for a human cultivator in Jing Kingdom just for a fifth-order thunder dragon and some so-called face?

As for the Azure Dragon King's concern that the Thunder Dragon might become a sixth-tier demon saint in the future, I'm afraid no fifth-tier superior dragon king would care.

After all, although four-clawed, four-toed dragons are rare in the dragon clan, they have almost never been extinct.

However, there are very few dragon kings in history who have actually broken through to the sixth-order demon saint!

Even the Golden Horned Dragon King was able to break through, not only because of his own exceptional talent and aptitude, but also because of the support of the Dragon Clan's resources and the Heaven-Reaching Treasure, the Dragon God Pearl.

Even if Lei Jiao Bai Bai, who has been wandering outside, has good aptitude and talent, his limit is that he can be promoted to the fifth-level high-grade demon king. It is impossible for him to break through to the sixth level!

Of course, Zhou Chun took this risky step out of desperation.

If possible, he certainly didn't want to reveal the [Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Jar]. If this item failed to intimidate the Fire Dragon King, his fate would be extremely tragic!

But can he really abandon his family?

If the entire Zhou family is wiped out by the Fire Dragon King and his forces because of him, how can Zhou Chun live with himself in peace afterward!

He was not a carefree rogue cultivator; his family was his root, and he would do everything in his power to protect it as long as there was a sliver of hope.

"So much time has passed, the ancient human sacrificial object, the [Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Jar], should be forgotten by almost everyone now."

"Moreover, this item is most famous for its [Purifying Heaven Divine Water] effect. As long as the number of Nascent Soul stage cultivators among the human race doesn't increase significantly because of it, no alien race should remember this ancient divine artifact!"

"Never mind, even if this really attracts that so-called Golden Horned Demon Saint, I can only accept it. When the news gets out, those Nascent Soul stage Venerables will avenge me!!"

Zhou Chun glanced at the stone jar in his hand, then immediately put it into his body, no longer thinking about such unknown matters.

He was simply choosing the lesser of two evils; if it really came to that, there was nothing he could do!

On the other side, when the Fire Dragon King hurriedly led the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King away from Lianzhou and returned to the Yunzhou region controlled by the demon race.

The Azure Dragon King, who had been holding back all the way, was the first to pour out his many questions to him.

"Brother Fire Dragon, what's wrong with you? Why were you so scared by that human brat that you ran away like this? Didn't we agree to skin that brat alive and devour his nascent soul today?"

It poured out its questions, full of confusion, wanting the Fire Dragon King to explain.

Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, the Fire Dragon King's expression suddenly changed, and it swatted the Fire Dragon away with a single claw.

This claw strike was unleashed in a fit of rage, without any deliberate restraint. Caught off guard, the Azure Dragon King was sent flying hundreds of feet away, its dragon scales shattered, and blood flowed freely – it looked incredibly painful.

But what bothered the Azure Dragon King even more than the physical pain was the Fire Dragon King's sudden and ruthless attitude.

It stopped, blood trickling from the corner of its mouth, and stared at the Fire Dragon King in disbelief: "Brother Fire Dragon, you..."

"I'll only give you a slap today to teach you a lesson, since you called me 'Big Brother.' Otherwise, even if I don't kill you, I'll definitely pull out a few of your dragon tendons!"

The Fire Dragon King glared at the Azure Dragon King with a ferocious expression and roared, his voice filled with barely concealed rage.

This scene not only stunned the Azure Dragon King, but also shocked the Thunder Dragon King.

After a slight hesitation, he looked at the Fire Dragon King and said, "Brother Fire Dragon, calm down. Of course we know there must be a reason for your sudden departure. Even if Brother Azure Dragon is wrong, you should let him know where he went wrong!"

"Yes, even if I am guilty, Brother Fire Dragon, you must let me die knowing why!"

The Azure Dragon King also chimed in with a wronged expression, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Perhaps it was because he had vented some of his pent-up anger with that palm strike, or perhaps it was because the Thunder Dragon King's plea had an effect.

The Fire Dragon King looked at the aggrieved and confused Azure Dragon King, first letting out a cold snort, and then said, "Your mistake was that you didn't even bother to gather any information before stirring up trouble and instigating me and Brother Thunder Dragon to cause trouble for that human. Do you know that today, Brother Thunder Dragon and I almost lost our lives because of your selfishness?!"

Upon hearing this, both the Azure Dragon King and the Thunder Dragon King were startled. The Thunder Dragon King exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Fire Dragon, what makes you say such a thing!"

"What? Do you think I'm lying to you?"

The Fire Dragon King glared angrily at the two, then said in a low voice, "The stone jar magic artifact in that human's hand is very likely a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure!!"

I was in a terrible state during the day and couldn't write anything at all, so I'm a little late! New month, please vote for me!
