Chapter 449: Chapter 449 Lava Giant Beast_1

"Hehe, lucky me, it’s a 600-year-old Mystic Spirit Grass. The Top-quality True Essence Pills produced from this will naturally be of finer quality, and the quantity will also be greater."

Ling Xiao revealed an excited expression.

You should know, just this single Mystic Spirit Grass could be used to concoct up to ten batches of pills, with each batch consisting of sixty pills!

That adds up to a total of six hundred Top-quality True Essence Pills, enough to last him quite a while.

The Mystic Spirit Grass was quite far from his current position, already outside the range of the "True Essence Ball" detection, so he carefully looked around in all directions, wary of any Ferocious Beasts lying in ambush.

After all, according to what he had read in books, the vicinity of Mystic Spirit Grass over a hundred years old would almost certainly have powerful Monster Beasts or Ferocious Beasts guarding it, and the fact that he hadn’t seen any trace of a Ferocious Beast was highly abnormal.

As Ling Xiao got closer to the Mystic Spirit Grass, he became even more cautious.

Suddenly!

Ling Xiao abruptly leaped backward, retreating over ten meters.

Boom!

Right where he had been standing, a one-meter square pit had formed, filled with glowing magma.

He couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement. Good thing he was quick to react; had he gone straight for the Mystic Spirit Grass without paying attention, he would have been directly attacked.

Standing there, his mood slowly stabilized, and he looked up towards the mountain behind the Mystic Spirit Grass.

Yes, a mountain.

Only at this moment, the Stone Mountain moved like a living Giant Beast, which was why he had failed to notice this Ferocious Beast until now.

This creature was a "Lava Giant Beast."

And it was a level six Ferocious Beast!

Even though it was only a low-level sixth-layer Ferocious Beast, its terrifying combat power was definitely far superior to the previous twenty-two Windtail Wolves.

This Lava Giant Beast looked much like a huge turtle with sharp edges and angles, and its back, which was obviously a volcano.

It stood about fifteen meters tall, moving as if it were a mountain itself.

That lava attack just now was simply it controlling its power to scare Ling Xiao away; if it had attacked with full force, the entire basin might have been turned into a sea of magma.

The threat in those huge pupils was clear, along with a dense murderous intent.

Even the magma that flowed within its gaping maw blazed fiercely.

Ling Xiao frowned.

He knew the Lava Giant Beast held no true killing intent towards him, but that was only out of consideration for the Mystic Spirit Grass.

Otherwise, the Lava Giant Beast would definitely not let him off easily.

Leave?

Ling Xiao shook his head.

Having come all this way, how could he possibly leave now?

He must obtain the Mystic Spirit Grass. If the Lava Giant Beast obediently left, then he wouldn’t pursue the matter further, but if the beast insisted on fighting him for the 600-year-old Mystic Spirit Grass, then a fierce battle was inevitable.

However, this battle clearly wouldn’t be easy. He had just advanced to the early stage of the Transcendent Realm Fifth Layer, while the low-level sixth-layer Lava Giant Beast was much stronger than a martial artist at the early stage of the Transcendent Realm Sixth Layer, its strength even approaching that of a martial artist at the Intermediate Stage of the Transcendent Realm Sixth Layer.

But being not easy doesn’t mean it’s impossible to fight.

Once Ling Xiao made a decision, he wouldn’t change his mind unless it was absolutely necessary.

And right now, he certainly had a chance to battle the Lava Giant Beast!

"Roar~~"

From the mouth of the Lava Giant Beast came a furious roar; the scorching breath it expelled instantly turned the vegetation in front of it into blackened powder.

Its blood-red giant eyes were firmly fixed on Ling Xiao, staring down the audacious little dot who dared to intrude into its territory and covet the 600-year-old Xuanling Grass.

It had already issued a threat to this intruder, but the intruder showed no signs of leaving, which greatly angered it.

"Roar~~"

Instead of retreating, Ling Xiao also opened his mouth and let out a roar that did not sound human.

It was more like the roar of a dragon!

At the same time, the terrifying dragon’s might was unleashed, directly enveloping the Lava Giant Beast.

Ling Xiao didn’t want to fight.

At least not now. Otherwise, if he destroyed the 600-year-old Xuanling Grass, he would be very distressed.

Boom boom boom!

The Lava Giant Beast felt fear and retreated several steps backward, causing the ground to tremble continuously.

But in an instant, its eyes were no longer clear but had turned a deep red.

"Roar~~"

The Lava Giant Beast became angry, as it had actually been frightened into retreat by a little dot, bringing it unimaginable shame.

It decided to kill this little dot, regardless of whether it would destroy the entire valley.

Ling Xiao frowned.

Indeed, a Ferocious Beast is a Ferocious Beast, losing its mind and fearing nothing when enraged. It seemed that a battle was inevitable!

"This is your own doing, don’t blame me if you die!"

Ling Xiao no longer intended to hold back, and the Ice Dragon Sword appeared in his hand.

His Nine Channels Air Sword was not enough to deal with a monster of this caliber, after all, he had only cultivated it to the fourth layer.

Survival of the fittest!

It’s either you die or I live!

This is the classic law of the jungle.

Unless Ling Xiao chose to escape, leaving the Mystic Spirit Grass to the Lava Giant Beast.

But clearly, he was unwilling to do so, and so was the opponent, therefore the only solution to the problem was to fight.

"Release!"

Ling Xiao discarded the Array Refining Stone!

At that moment, his aura surged wildly; he could feel the savagery of his long-suppressed power suddenly being unleashed.

It was exhilarating!

With this sensation, he wouldn’t fear facing a sixth level low-rank Ferocious Beast, let alone even a sixth level pinnacle Ferocious Beast.

"Roar~~"

The dignity of the Lava Giant Beast was challenged once again, and it was seething with anger. It opened its massive jaw, and a huge ball of Magma Fire began to condense.

The terrifying high temperature suddenly raised the temperature of the entire valley.

"This won’t do!"

Ling Xiao noticed that many Mystic Spirit Grasses that had not been harvested in time were withering.

The 600-year-old Xuanling Grass might be more resilient, but he could not let this Lava Giant Beast act so recklessly.

"Cloud Dragon Divine Movement - Golden Dragon Wings!"

In that instant, a pair of shiny black wings sprouted from Ling Xiao’s back, stretching out to maintain a length of about two meters for the time being.

The length of the Golden Dragon Wings could be adjusted at will; this was one of the results of Ling Xiao’s training.

They could stretch to a maximum of dozens of meters or, at their shortest, disappear completely. However, to fly, the combined length of the two wings must be at least one meter, otherwise, it would be impossible.

In this basin, the wings naturally couldn’t be too large. A two-meter length would not hinder the flight and was small enough to be a suitable choice.

Whoosh!

The moment the Golden Dragon Wings appeared, Ling Xiao’s body turned into a blur as he pounced toward the Lava Giant Beast, with the Ice Dragon Sword in his hand beginning to condense a terrifying chill.

The rising high temperature in the basin was gradually brought down.

Of course, that was definitely not his only goal.

The strategy of creating a distraction is indeed very common and frequently used by many, but it remains very effective.
