Chapter 1727: Cloud Tiger's Submission

“Soul attack?”

The Azurewood Flood Dragon was stunned, having never expected this young man, who was only at the Golden Body Realm, to possess such an ability.

“So what if it’s a soul attack? Cloud Tiger has endured countless battles over the years and specifically cultivated soul power. He was just caught off guard at most. Once prepared, he’ll still be able to kill him! Furthermore, soul attacks cause immense damage to the soul itself. For him, a Golden Body Realm practitioner, to attack the soul of an Indestructible Realm cultivator, one attempt is his limit. A second... is impossible!”

The slow voice of the Dark Nether Mysterious Turtle rang out. This fellow was not only slow in movement but also slow in speech.

The Azurewood Flood Dragon nodded. All five of them possessed ancient divine beast bloodlines; even if their souls were weaker, they were certainly not something just anyone could break. Besides, soul attacks are a double-edged sword, harming oneself almost as much as they harm the enemy. Even if you launch the attack, how many times can you use it?

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger recovered, roaring furiously and charging towards the young man before it. It was truly enraged. A dignified king, to be soul-attacked by a mere Golden Body Realm junior and fall into a daze... Fortunately, the opponent didn't take the opportunity to sneak attack; otherwise, if it were truly defeated, how could it face its numerous subordinates?

“Worst case, we’ll die together!”

Seeing its swift recovery, Zhang Xuan, on the opposite side, seemed incredulous, his face turning pale. He gritted his teeth and appeared to burn his life force to unleash an attack.

“Still want to attack? Dream on...” the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger gritted its teeth. One sneak attack was enough; did he really think he could still use soul attacks now that it was prepared?

It shook its head, concentrating all its mental energy, intending to resist the opponent’s soul attack. Just as it finished preparing, it heard a sudden whimper from directly above. It seemed as though a heavy object was attacking it.

“Damn it, I fell for it...”

Feeling the pressure, it immediately understood that the opponent's previous talk of “continuing” was clearly a trick, and the real killing move was hidden above. It hastily looked up, wanting to see what was attacking it, when it once again felt a powerful surge of spiritual energy overwhelming it, causing a dizzy spell in its mind.

“This fellow’s pale face was fake...”

As its mind cleared, the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger understood. If he could continue to unleash such powerful soul attacks, how could his face be pale? It was clearly a deliberate feigned weakness, intended to make it drop its guard.

No sooner had it understood what was happening than it felt an immense force already smashing down on its head, making it sway involuntarily. Although it didn't understand what weapon it was, for it to be able to strike it like this in one blow, it must have reached at least the Great Sage level!

“This is... a Great Sage level brick?” The Azurewood Flood Dragon looked bewildered.

“It looks like several tons of Gold Essence Spirit Stones were used!” The Dark Nether Mysterious Turtle’s mouth also twitched, while its mind struggled to comprehend: “These things are rare throughout the entire continent, and to use them... to forge a brick...”

Those were Gold Essence Spirit Stones. Adding just a bit to a supreme-grade Saint artifact could transform it into a Great Sage level super-ore... So precious, yet he used several tons of them to refine a brick...

“Big brother, can you tell me which profligate idiot refined this thing? Someone come tell me, how does this lump in the air... resemble a cauldron? Does it have even a shred of resemblance to a cauldron? Don't you have any self-awareness about what you look like? And 'Golden Origin Cauldron'... and 'refine into cinders'... Even if the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger stood still and let you refine it, what would you use?”

As the two Saint Beasts were still in shock, they heard the excited voice of the brick ring out: “Haha, surrender quickly, or do you believe my Golden Origin Cauldron can refine you into cinders in minutes...”

“Golden Origin Cauldron? Could it be... this thing is a cauldron?” The Azurewood Flood Dragon suddenly felt its teeth ache.

It wasn't just the Saint Beasts with this expression; the trapped Wu Changping also looked bewildered. The world of the wealthy is indeed difficult to comprehend... For one Saint Beast, he would risk life and limb, yet someone else used such precious Gold Essence Spirit Stones to forge a lump...

“Attack!”

Ignoring the surrounding shock, Zhang Xuan barked again.

Whoosh!

The Demonic Profound Saber, the Ebony Gold Saber, Bo Xin's spear, along with the Dragon Bone Divine Spear, all flew out simultaneously. These five great treasures attacked together, and during this, an inkstone also periodically rushed over to deliver a smash.

“What the hell is this... a one-on-one fight?” The Azurewood Flood Dragon, the Houtu Qilin, and the other beasts all felt their vision darken in disbelief.

Just now, this fellow righteously declared that he wanted a one-on-one, a fair duel with the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger. They had actually thought he would do so... They never dreamed he would summon so many weapons. Others would be grateful to have even one Great Sage level treasure; he produced six at once... Are you the illegitimate son of the Artifact Forger's Guild President?! But even an illegitimate son wouldn't have so many powerful weapons. Most crucially... so many weapons attacking simultaneously, plus you... that's equivalent to six Indestructible Realm experts besieging him. What kind of one-on-one is that?

“Should we stop him?” Seeing its friend being beaten to a pulp, the Celestial Azure Fire Phoenix could no longer bear to watch.

“He asked earlier if he could use his own refined weapons. We all agreed...” the Azurewood Flood Dragon said awkwardly. When he asked just now, they thought the opponent was being a gentleman and wanted to use that spear... Only now did they realize. What a gentleman! He was utterly shameless. With so many weapons unleashed simultaneously, even a peak Indestructible Realm expert couldn't resist them!

“Look what he's doing?”

Just as the group of Saint Beasts looked utterly dejected and didn't know what to do, they saw the young man opposite them reach out his hand again.

Whoosh!

Around the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger, six more Saint Beasts suddenly appeared. The weakest among them had reached the Spontaneous Inspiration Great Perfection realm, while the stronger ones had reached the Indestructible Realm... As soon as they appeared, they lunged at Cloud Tiger, biting.

“These are his spirit beasts?” The remaining four Saint Beasts exchanged glances again: “These... seem to be the Saint Beasts from this place, don't they!”

“Yes!”

“In other words, in just this short time since it opened, he's already tamed six Saint Beasts for his own use?” The Azurewood Flood Dragon trembled with rage: “Since when have the Saint Beasts here become so unprincipled and lacking in integrity?”

As Saint Beasts capable of human speech, they knew quite a bit about beast taming. For the forest before them, from the time humans entered until now, it had only been a few hours at most... For the opponent to have tamed six Saint Beasts, it was far too fast!

“Once this matter is over, we must properly rectify things. We Saint Beasts cannot easily yield to humans!” The Azurewood Flood Dragon gritted its teeth: “Especially those on Cloud Tiger's side. He has such integrity, but his subordinates don't. What kind of behavior is this...”

The Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger, fighting the opponent alone for its dignity, how magnificent! Yet its subordinates acted like this...

However, before it could finish speaking, it suddenly saw the Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger, which had just been fighting, suddenly prostrate itself on the ground, bowing completely. A drop of vital essence blood from its brow flew towards the young man before it.

“Golden Spirit Cloud Tiger greets Master!”

The massive tiger lay motionless on the ground.
