Chapter 1434: Thirteen Criminal Heads
The beast arm was originally his own body, as thick as a tree stump, with beast claws like an Iron Rake, carrying a whistling wind, coming straight at Wang Xiaoqiang's face, as if to crush his skull.
Just then, the lightning mark at Wang Xiaoqiang's Heavenly Eye slightly opened, and immediately a bolt of lightning shot out, rushing towards that massive beast hand, directly striking the center of the beast claw, with a bang, the lightning flashed chaotically, blasting the beast claw apart.
"Uwaa~~~" The man in black let out a beast-like miserable cry, the bloody beast arm shrieked back, retracting into the body cavity, and at the same time, the man in black's form blurred, swooshing back to its original form, a lion-headed ape-bodied being, standing two meters tall, exuding a fierce aura, and the beast claw that had just been blasted by Wang Xiaoqiang also extended once more, intact as before.
Such innate creatures like Divine Beasts have incredibly powerful physical bodies, with a function of regenerating severed limbs, especially such Purple Mansion level Divine Beasts, whose limb regeneration ability is extremely rapid.
Although the beast claw was restored, the lion-headed ape-bodied Divine Beast was extremely furious, letting out a fierce roar at Wang Xiaoqiang, its form shot forward, and the two beast claws reached out together towards Wang Xiaoqiang, seemingly trying to crush him with a vicious grip.
Wang Xiaoqiang released both hands, striking towards the reaching beast claws.
Crack! Crack!
Thunder exploded, several bolts of lightning shot from Wang Xiaoqiang's palms, striking the Divine Beast's beast claws, the Thunderclap Annihilation Palm once again blasted the beast claws apart.
"Uwaa~~~" The Divine Beast let out a miserable cry, both arms retracted, the body retreated several meters, both arms shrank back into the body cavity. When they extended again, the beast claws on those two arms were still intact.
Wang Xiaoqiang's expression changed, knowing that battling such a powerful innate creature would not only yield no advantage but also deplete a large amount of Spiritual Power, and as the saying goes, the best strategy among the Thirty-Six Stratagems is to retreat. Thus, with a thought, the Patterned Beast unfurled the Wind-Thunder Wings, carrying the two of them through the sky and flying away towards the distant horizon.
"Trying to escape, no chance!" The Divine Beast's body suddenly shrank, transforming into a human form, becoming the man in black, who then swiftly and relentlessly caught up. At the same time, with a wave of his robe sleeve, four little men emerged from the wide robe sleeve, growing larger with the wind, until they reached human size, revealing their ragged clothes and dirty faces—they were four criminals.
The eyes of these four criminals were hollow, their gazes cold, their eyes filled with murderous intent, yet they appeared very respectful towards the man in black.
Evidently, they had already become pets or puppets of the Divine Beast.
The man in black, transformed from the Divine Beast, looked at Wang Xiaoqiang and Xue Hongying fleeing further ahead, his gaze filled with maniacal and sinister intent, overflowing with murderous desire. He clasped his hands in front of him, and instantly, a red spear condensed and materialized. After the red spear condensed, the four criminals simultaneously leapt onto the spear upon seeing it,
Then the man in black carved a beast-shaped rune and threw it at the tip of the spear, with a whoosh, the end of the spear ignited. With a wave of his hand, the red spear carried the four criminals' bodies, sped forward like lightning, even faster than the Patterned Beast, quickly approaching the Patterned Beast ahead.
Charging towards Wang Xiaoqiang on the back of the Patterned Beast.
Wang Xiaoqiang patted his Storage Bag, and a spear flew out, turned around, and charged towards the incoming red spear.
When the two spears collided head-on, Wang Xiaoqiang shouted, "Explode!"
At the word "explode," the spear blasted open with a boom, both sides exploding.
The four criminals on the red spear were all injured by the explosion, but at this time, instead of retreating, under the control of the man in black, they fearlessly charged towards Wang Xiaoqiang.
"They are criminals, controlled by the Divine Beast, turned into its puppets," Red Lady Xue Hongying reminded.
Since they are criminals, then slaying them and collecting their heads would also be a gain.
With this thought, Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Xue Hongying, wrap them with your Blood Red Gauze, I'll take care of them."
"Okay," Xue Hongying, although a criminal, knew that these four criminals had become the Divine Beast's puppets, and if not eliminated, they would become a future threat, thus she agreed, waving her hand, the Blood Red Gauze flew up and expanded, like a flag, wrapping towards one of the criminals.
That criminal, with the Great Luo Golden Immortal Sixth Liquid Realm cultivation base, sneered at the Blood Red Gauze, reaching out to tear it apart, only to find that the thin gauze was incredibly tough, not tearing at all, but instead wrapped him up, binding his limbs completely.
At this moment, Wang Xiaoqiang released Ge Laoda, his ghost form flashed, leaping forward, with a swipe of the Ghost Claw, he swiftly severed that criminal's head, tossing it to Wang Xiaoqiang, who took out a Dragon Tendon and bound the criminal's head.
Xue Hongying used her spell to guide, then waved again, the Blood Red Gauze that wrapped the corpse flew up to wrap towards another criminal.
Having learned from his predecessor, this criminal dared not grab the Blood Red Gauze, instead he conjured an Immortal Sword, slicing towards the Blood Red Gauze, only to find the Immortal Sword couldn't even scratch it.
"Break!" Xue Hongying's red lips parted as she uttered "break," and as she spoke the word, the Blood Red Gauze split into three and shot towards the three criminals.
The three criminals summoned their magic treasures to resist the Blood Red Gauze, but seeing this, Xue Hongying once more spat the word "break!"
At the word "break," the gauze split again, into six pieces, expanding in the wind to flag size, each pair targeting one of the three criminals from front and back.
With the front and back attack, the three criminals had nowhere to flee.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...
Very quickly, three pieces of Blood Red Gauze wrapped the three criminals, making terrifying sounds, tightly binding their hands and feet.
Seizing the opportunity, Wang Xiaoqiang released Little Yin, simultaneously taking out the Penglai Immortal Sword, and leapt at one criminal, with Ge Laoda and Little Yin targeting the other two,
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…
The heads of the three criminals were swiftly severed by Wang Xiaoqiang's Immortal Sword, and Ge Laoda's and Little Yin's Ghost Claws, finally strung onto Wang Xiaoqiang's Dragon Tendon. At this moment, the number of criminal heads on Wang Xiaoqiang's Dragon Tendon had reached thirteen.
However, this delay in slaying the four criminals allowed the Divine Beast to catch up again. Upon seeing Wang Xiaoqiang having killed his four puppets, the man in black's face contorted with rage, shouting, "You brat, you stole my woman and killed my puppets; today I shall surely kill you."
Wang Xiaoqiang turned back to the man in black, giving a mocking smile, saying, "A beast like you, a mere animal, worthy of having a woman? Besides, take a good look, she's my woman…hahaha…" As Wang Xiaoqiang spoke, he wrapped his arm around Xue Hongying's slender waist and laughed proudly. (To be continued.
