Chapter 2133: One Claw Strikes Down—Do You Regret It?
Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing finally understood why the Divine Turtle couldn’t help but curse.
Even if what appeared before them was merely a mixed beast carrying the bloodline of a Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast, the Divine Turtle couldn’t suppress his inner grievances.
The Absolute Night Wolf King also coldly remarked, "The Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast is different from the Night Charm King, who acts independently and openly defies the former Master of Ten Thousand Beasts. However, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast lost the essence of a beast, becoming extremely sinister and traitorous."
At this moment, Sikong Jing’s beast-shaped spirit shadow could sense the deep-seated animosity of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sky Prison towards the Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast.
It was a hatred as deep as the sea...
Just then, the Golden Divine Dragon interjected, "Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, fortunately you didn’t become demonized earlier. Otherwise, if you couldn’t eliminate this mixed-breed Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast, the Five Heavenly Emperors would likely have noticed."
Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing slightly raised his eyes, somewhat incredulous; the Willow Leaf Holy Wall harbors pitfalls laid by the Five Heavenly Emperors.
Could this Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast also have them?
"The Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast is precisely the foremost of the demon beast pawns under the Five Heavenly Emperors."
"And it is insidiously cunning. Based on my understanding, it will surely pass down the orders and methods for finding a new Master of Ten Thousand Beasts through memory inheritance to all its descendants..."
"As long as it discovers you are the new Master of Ten Thousand Beasts, it will use every means possible to notify the real Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast."
Listening to the explanation of the Golden Divine Dragon, Sikong Jing secretly inhaled a breath.
As his Martial Arts Realm continues to ascend, so does the multitude of things within his reach.
Only now does he realize that the configuration of the Five Heavenly Emperors towards him manifests as ubiquitous presences, his identity could be exposed at any given moment.
"Upon encountering descendants with the bloodline of the Six-clawed Evil Heart Beast, one must either go unseen or certainly eliminate them." The Divine Turtle’s voice echoed anew, transformed from its usual calm to a fierce brutality.
While conversing with the other beasts through the beast-shaped spirit shadow...
Sikong Jing’s body was quietly explaining to Su Beiheng that naturally, within the mouths of fierce beasts lies the weaknesses and attributes of the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast. Sikong Jing had to inform Grandpa Su about these things.
"Ajing, you know so much?"
Su Beiheng expressed some surprise, taken aback by Sikong Jing’s vast knowledge, but rather than asking more, he silently memorized the weaknesses of the Six-clawed Mixed Beast.
At the same time, Pei Kuang had already kneeled on one knee, seemingly out of nowhere, before the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast...
The Tower Master of Qianwang, hailed as the world’s foremost expert, knelt down, murmuring lowly, "Pei Kuang, has met the Six-clawed Holy Beast."
Though his voice attempted to maintain calmness, it seemed filled with resentment...
Upon hearing this, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast hovering above didn’t open its mouth, yet released a deep, profound male voice asking, "Pei Kuang, this is the second time. What price are you prepared to pay this time?"
Upon his words, Pei Kuang’s whole body trembled...
Then he lifted his head and said, "Six-clawed Holy Beast, this cannot really be considered the second time, for the one from last time has not died."
After speaking, he pointed towards the direction of Su Beiheng and tightly regarded the Six-clawed Mixed Beast.
He intended to use this as leverage in negotiating terms.
As always, summoning this One Claw Domain’s demon beast comes at an enormous cost, one Pei Kuang was unwilling to pay.
Thus, Pei Kuang concocted either an excuse or perhaps a matter of fact.
Last time, you failed to kill Su Old Demon, so the disaster you left behind obviously cannot demand a second payment.
Following Pei Kuang’s words, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast obviously paused in surprise, then slowly turned to look in the direction Pei Kuang had indicated, gazing towards Su Beiheng’s location, and certainly at Sikong Jing.
Faced with the Six-clawed Mixed Beast’s gaze, Sikong Jing naturally hid all of his beastly aura as tightly as possible.
In the next instant, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast did not open its mouth but emitted a voice saying, "It truly is the person from last time; however, he’s dead now, so you still need to pay the second price."
The voice was calm yet uncompromising, almost causing Pei Kuang to erupt in outrage.
Evidently, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast discerned that the present Su Beiheng was merely a dead person, hence the demand for a price.
Seemingly perceiving Pei Kuang’s anger, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast released a voice and coldly asked, "Do you object?"
To this, Pei Kuang clenched his teeth tightly, not daring to resist, and could only say in a muffled voice, "I dare not!"
Upon hearing this, the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast let out a faintly mocking laugh.
Then slowly extended its enormous claw, engulfing Pei Kuang and his companion in an instant, whisking them up into the heavens...
Immediately afterward, it cast a glance at Su Beiheng and the Beiheng Sword Formation, its claw suddenly enlarged, transforming into a cloud-mask existence, and in the next moment... boom!
The monstrous claw pressed down towards the direction of Su Beiheng and Sikong Jing.
It said nothing further, nor did it exchange words with Su Beiheng, for it felt the latter was undeserving. Just like decades ago, it prepared to leave after delivering a single strike.
Whether many lives were lost was completely indifferent to it...
Thump, thump, thump...
The horrifying pressure from one claw made the surrounding mountains centered around the Beiheng Sword Formation seem about to shatter into fragments.
The eerie, dreadful aura caused all flowers, grasses, and trees beyond the Beiheng Sword Formation to wither; it was poison, as the Beast Poison fell like rain even before the claw descended.
However, this time was different from last time...
The last time Pei Kuang had completed the summoning, and one claw fell directly, countless subordinates of Su Beiheng perished on the spot. This time, due to the time needed for summoning, preparations were in place.
All the demon beasts had already fled, only those within the Beiheng Sword Formation unable to escape.
Meanwhile, above the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast appeared Pei Kuang, unleashing an insanely savage voice: "Su Beiheng, ultimately you couldn’t kill me, and your grandson-in-law Little Demon Sikong will also be utterly destroyed."
"Do you regret it?"
The rolling voice reverberated through the entire Beiheng Sword Formation, everyone discerning Pei Kuang’s enraged tone, owing to the heavy price he must pay—all caused by the dead Su Beiheng.
However, Su Beiheng did not respond to him...
At this moment, Su Beiheng looked to Sikong Jing beside him and said, "Ajing, your intelligence regarding the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast is very useful. I’m going to leave something on it, and simultaneously force the person within it out."
In response, Sikong Jing nodded gravely, his face serious...
They had all seen clearly that the one speaking moments ago wasn’t the real Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast, but rather someone inside the Six-clawed Mixed Beast.
Since there’s a need to uncover what’s behind Pei Kuang, and the desire to know where this mysterious power originates, it’s crucial to force out the owner of the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast...
At least they have to see what kind of person this is.
His Grandpa Su is about to battle the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast now, and the latter is indeed a presence at the Holy Martial Fifth Realm.
Sikong Jing could naturally discern what realm the Six-clawed Evil Heart Mixed Beast was.
Initially entering the Holy Martial Fifth Realm, this naturally appeared to be striking stones with eggs; yet Su Beiheng wasn’t genuinely intending to fight; he merely wanted to force the person inside out, seeking the adversary’s complacency for a deadly strike.
"Grandpa Su has to be cautious; I still have to carry you back to Granny Ye’s side." Sikong Jing hoarsely said.
