High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Chapter 564 Successful Beast Taming!

Old Wang once said that these flying centipedes are as strong as a mid-stage Celestial Realm martial artist, or even stronger.

Therefore, Chen Fan did not hold back and immediately unleashed five giant spirit hands.

The true energy value in his body instantly decreased by fifty million points!

"Giant, the Hand of the Giant Spirit?"

Old Wang, standing to the side, exclaimed in surprise, his eyes filled with shock.

He knew that the true energy within Chen Fan's body was beyond the reach of ordinary True Essence Realm martial artists, and even surpassed by some Celestial Realm martial artists.

What truly surprised him was the martial arts technique used by Chen Fan.

Legend has it that the Giant Spirit Hand is a martial art born from the fusion of two peerless martial arts, with power comparable to a supreme-level martial art.

However, due to the passage of time, the two peerless martial arts techniques that have been passed down, the Undying Seal Technique and the Wisdom Scripture of Controlling All Laws, are no longer complete. Even the Undying Seal Technique that he taught Shi Tao is missing a small part.

Needless to say, one needs to master both techniques to a high level and comprehend this martial art.

How exactly did Chen Fan do it?

Even the Flying Centipede was not spared after being struck by five giant hands in succession.

Its outer shell was cracked in many places, and green blood was flowing out.

Blood was also flowing from the enormous mouthparts.

"A good opportunity."

Upon seeing this, Chen Fan was overjoyed and immediately used the Beast Taming Technique.

The flying centipede lying on the ground, which had been somewhat listless, suddenly seemed to be stimulated by something and began to twitch its body wildly, slapping the ground loudly.

Chen Fan refused to believe it and used the Beast Taming Technique again.

The flying centipede, which was frantically twisting its body, paused, then looked at Chen Fan in the distance, let out a roar, and was about to charge again.

Chen Fan sneered, and another giant spirit hand fell to the ground.

"boom!"

A tremendous tremor resounded.

The flying centipede was once again slammed into the ground, its shell completely shattered in many places, revealing the flesh and blood inside.

Seeing this, Chen Fan considered whether to slap him again.

Because the Beast Taming Technique must be used when the beast is weak; the weaker the beast, the greater the chance of successfully controlling it.

So the usual procedure is to beat them up first, then try to subdue them. If that doesn't work, keep beating them until they can be subdued.

However, you must be very careful to control the intensity. If you use too much force and kill the monster, that would be embarrassing.

This is what Chen Fan is currently worried about.

That flying centipede had its hardest outer shell broken by itself. If it were to be struck again, would it be killed instantly?

"Chen Fan, watch out!"

Just then, Old Wang's panicked voice rang out.

"Those two demonic beasts are coming!"

Chen Fan looked over and, sure enough, two enormous black centipedes were rushing towards him from underground.

Along the way, sand and stones flew everywhere, and a large number of trees were blown around like pebbles.

"Old Wang, you go first!" Chen Fan shouted urgently, and then used the Beast Taming Technique again.

He finally seized the opportunity when the flying centipede was alone, and weakened it. He only needed one or two more blows to control it.

Why choose to give up at such a crucial moment?

"What?"

Old Wang paused for a moment.

Seeing Chen Fan's hands forming a hand seal as he stared at the injured flying centipede, he immediately understood what was going on.

The next second, a long sword appeared in his hand. He swung it at the air, and a huge sword aura, tens of meters long, flew towards the two flying centipedes.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two flying centipedes immediately burst from the ground, flapping their wings. One of them charged menacingly at Old Wang, while the other went straight for Chen Fan.

"Oh no!"

Old Wang's expression changed.

Originally, he wanted to stop the two demonic beasts, but their attention shifted to him.

But these two demonic beasts weren't fools; one charged at him, while the other went after Chen Fan.

"Old Wang, you must go quickly!"

Seeing this, Chen Fan was also deeply moved.

If both sides were charging at him at the same time, he would indeed feel very troubled.

But if there's only one, there's no need to worry.

The next moment, he activated his Undying Golden Body, a layer of golden spherical shield enveloping him.

"An indestructible golden body!"

Old Wang's eyes almost popped out.

Just then, a foul stench swept over us.

Old Wang quickly turned around and ran away into the distance.

No matter what, he was a mid-stage Celestial Realm martial artist. In a one-on-one situation, he couldn't do anything to the flying centipede behind him.

However, it's unrealistic for the other party to catch up with him in a short period of time.

"With the indestructible golden body, I believe that the demon beast won't be able to do anything to him in a short time. I just need to lure away the flying centipede behind him."

Old Wang breathed a sigh of relief upon realizing this.

No wonder Chen Fan said he wanted to come in alone. So that's why. Even if it were three flying centipedes at once, the time his indestructible golden body could hold out would probably be enough for him to reach the exit.

But how did he manage to date the immortal golden body?

As everyone knows, this is a supreme martial art. Even among the aristocratic families that have inherited it to this day, very few possess the complete version of the Indestructible Golden Body.

Not to mention, at such a young age, he has already cultivated to at least the advanced stage.

"I thought I knew him well enough, but now it seems I still know nothing about him."

Old Wang smiled wryly.

However, he had no intention of pressing the issue to find out the truth.

After all, who hasn't had some unexpected opportunities?

Just then, another flying centipede arrived in front of Chen Fan, its speed increasing rather than decreasing, and it rammed into him.

"when!"

A crisp sound rang out.

Chen Fan remained standing there, motionless.

The flying centipede flew backwards for hundreds of meters, crashing through countless trees and leaving a ditch in the ground.

However, it was incredibly stubborn. The moment it fell to the ground, it acted as if nothing had happened and charged at Chen Fan again with ferocious momentum.

Chen Fan ignored it and seized the opportunity to strike the injured flying centipede in the distance with another palm!

The latter immediately let out a mournful cry. Its once jet-black, gleaming armor was now completely shattered, and a large amount of green blood flowed from its wounds, staining the surrounding area green.

"This guy's vitality is really tenacious."

Chen Fan sighed inwardly.

It took seven giant hands to bring the opponent into a state of severe injury.

If you want to kill the other person completely, you'll probably need to slap them again.

Of course, if you do that, all your previous efforts will be wasted.

The next second, he used the Beast Taming Technique again.

This time, the flying centipede stopped struggling. Almost instantly, Chen Fan felt something new appear in his mind, containing fear, pain, and resentment.

"Is it that flying centipede?"

Chen Fan understood.

That extra piece of consciousness in my mind must be it.

It's normal for it to fear and hate itself, after all, it was you who severely injured it, and it's afraid that you will slap it again and kill it completely.

"Don't be afraid, I mean no harm."

Chen Fan communicated with it using his mind.

"I didn't really want to hurt you, but you started it, didn't you? I only did this to teach you a lesson, I didn't mean to take your life, so you don't need to worry."

The flying centipede's emotions stabilized, and its hatred and fear lessened somewhat.

"Right?"

Chen Fan continued to comfort it: "If I wanted to kill you, would I be wasting so much time talking to you? Just rest here, I'll come back to find you later."

He doesn't have much true energy left in his body; he can only use the Giant Spirit Hand two or three more times at most.

Dealing with the second flying centipede won't be very effective. It's better to take the opportunity to go out and recuperate to restore your true energy, and then come back in and follow the same method to control the remaining two flying centipedes.

As for this side, there's no need to worry.

Because once controlled by the Beast Taming Technique, the life and death of the demon beast are in his hands, so he doesn't have to worry about the beast disobeying him when he leaves and comes back.

"when!"

Another loud bang.

Another flying centipede clashed with Chen Fan.

In just a few seconds, it crashed more than a dozen times, still refusing to give up.

"Old Wang! He's gone!"

Chen Fan shouted loudly towards the sky.

"good!"

Upon hearing this, Old Wang, who was some distance away, responded and ran towards the exit.

"call out!"

"call out!"

The two of them, one in front of the other, passed through the entrance and came to the outside world.

The two flying centipedes inside the secret realm looked at the exit with expressions of human-like fear on their faces.

Upon turning around and seeing the horrific state of his companions, he roared in fury.

"How is it? Is it working?" Old Wang asked breathlessly.

If Chen Fan hadn't notified him, he felt he wouldn't have been able to hold on for much longer.

"It's done."

Chen Fan smiled.

"It's done!"

Old Wang's breath hitched. "Really? Really? You successfully controlled that flying centipede?"

That's a martial artist comparable to the mid-stage of the Celestial Realm!

If you keep it by your side, in a one-on-one situation, summoning the Flying Centipede will instantly turn the situation into a two-on-one fight.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, you'll see when we go inside."

Chen Fan smiled slightly and continued, "After we go in, I'll need to trouble you, Elder Wang, to hold off one of them for me. If we can control the two flying centipedes, then the remaining one will be easier to handle."

"Wh-what?!"

When Old Wang heard this, his mouth dropped open.

"You...you want to control all three demonic beasts?"

"yes."

Chen Fan laughed and said, "It's a rare opportunity, it would be a shame not to give it a try. Besides, if we have them to help guard Anshan City, I believe those ferocious beasts that come out from underground will surely die."

"That's true."

Old Wang nodded.

Although the flying centipede had been severely injured by Chen Fan, its foundation was still there. Even if it couldn't deal with a beast king-level ferocious beast, dealing with a commander-level ferocious beast would be a piece of cake.

As for the elite level below, they're practically easy prey.

Within the secret realm, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is so abundant that if he recuperates there for a few days, his injuries will be almost completely healed.

After all, this is a demon beast with a special physique; it can regenerate severed limbs, which is something martial artists cannot compare to.

"Alright, let's meditate and recover our energy. Once we've recovered enough, we can go in."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Elder Wang."

Chen Fan expressed his gratitude.

Without Old Wang's help, it wouldn't be impossible for him to control the remaining two, but it would be much more troublesome.

With Old Wang drawing one away, he can focus more intently on dealing with the remaining one.

"What's the trouble?" Old Wang waved his hand. "I'm just helping you draw some fire. The most important part is still up to you, isn't it? Besides, this is my first time participating in something like this, and it feels pretty good."

Moreover, if you can control those three, all the precious herbs in their territory will be yours. We won't need to approach them so cautiously anymore, having to leave at the slightest sign of trouble.

"That's true."

Thinking about this, Chen Fan's heart was filled with anticipation.

Yes, my main purpose in coming here is for those precious medicines that can increase one's original true energy.

As for having a few more thugs, that's secondary.

Of course, it would be a pity to just kill them like that, since the beast tide is breaking out right now, and there are as many ferocious beasts to kill as there are, so there's no need to worry about experience points anymore.

The two sat down facing each other and meditated to restore their vital energy.

Meanwhile, on the other side, in Anshan City.

Unlike the previous nights, tonight was eerily quiet. Not a single roar of ferocious beasts could be heard, and the beasts that used to roam around the city walls had vanished without a trace.

Many guards breathed a sigh of relief.

The ferocious beast had been lurking down there for the past few nights, so they dared not speak out of turn and walked very quietly, afraid of attracting its attention.

"Could it be that the ferocious beast has retreated?"

Someone asked curiously.

There have been similar examples in the past; at least the previous beast tides were like this.

They appear out of nowhere and disappear out of nowhere.

"No way, I saw on the internet that people from other cities said that many medium-sized cities have been overwhelmed by the beast tide, and countless people have died. The survivors have basically all fled to large cities. It is said that the beast tide will reach the walls of the big cities soon."

"My God, has the beast tide become that terrible? Even medium-sized cities can't hold on?"

"What do you think? The reason we can still sit here and chat is entirely because Chairman Li of the Awakener Association single-handedly held back the last wave of beasts. Otherwise, we would be inside some ferocious beast right now, probably excreted as waste."

"vomit!"

A group of people retching could be heard around them.

"You bastard, can you stop saying such disgusting things?"

"Exactly, I almost threw up my dinner after hearing what you said."

"alright."

A man who appeared to be the team leader gestured for everyone to quiet down and said, "Don't be too happy yet. Don't you all think it's a little too quiet tonight? Something's definitely up. Something might happen tonight."

"What? Something bad is going to happen tonight?"

"No, really? Those ferocious beasts, weren't they already gone? They shouldn't be coming back, right?"
