Keeping a Threat Alive for One's Own Use
"This demonic beast is quite extraordinary; it looks like it's about to transform into a dragon!"
Huang Chao couldn't help but whisper!
Most importantly, this demonic beast possesses extremely vigorous blood and energy; devouring it will undoubtedly allow his strength to directly advance to the Third Realm!
Lakeside!
The siren, its massive body surging towards the shore, half of its body held high, its surface covered in fine scales and slippery mucus!
Its deep brown, vertical pupils scrutinized the tiny group of humans before it!
Hunger made his eyes cold!
Looking at the dozen or so humans who had been used as sacrifices, he revealed a human-like expression of dissatisfaction.
Since he awakened his intelligence, his size has grown larger and larger.
The food in front of him was nothing more than a mouthful to him!
Although he couldn't understand why they would give him their own kind, he wouldn't take free food.
An elderly man who looked like a priest was prostrate on the ground in the crowd, devoutly worshipping the deity before him!
It looked like they were praying.
However, the siren couldn't wait any longer and swallowed the sacrificial humans whole in one gulp!
There was far too little meat.
The larger his body was, the stronger the hunger pangs became; he hadn't had a full meal in a long time.
His cold gaze swept over the rest of them!
Amidst the horrified and desperate gazes of the crowd, the siren opened its mouth again, instantly engulfing dozens of people!
A series of cracking sounds, like bones shattering, suddenly rang out in his mouth!
Click! Click!
Glug!
As they swallowed, the people of the tribe looked in fear at the giant beast they revered as a god.
Are the gods dissatisfied with their offerings?
In an instant, they all knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly and begging for the gods' forgiveness.
However, the siren showed no sign of stopping, its enormous body enveloping everyone in the center.
It opened its blood-red maw and devoured the humans before it, bit by bit!
"These natives are truly foolish; they're almost dead, yet they still bow down to that monster!"
Huang Chao scoffed coldly!
Neither he nor Qin Yan intended to make a move; instead, they sacrificed their own people to feed the giant beast.
They seem to be doing it willingly.
Qin Yan wouldn't even consider such people as human beings; they're just a bunch of savage, uncivilized beasts!
"This sea beast's strength has almost reached the critical point, and it could advance to the Fourth Realm at any time!"
Although his soul did not advance to become a dragon soul, it still had some use.
Why not wait until after the transformation before devouring it!
I want his dragon soul!
Qin Yan spoke calmly!
In this era of Spiritual Qi revival, possessing such strength makes one a standout among billions of living beings.
Although the giant beast before us has not yet truly transformed into a dragon, its potential is definitely not small.
"I don't care, but whether this dragon beast can break through its current level even after devouring everyone on the island is still unknown."
Huang Chao frowned!
"Then let's help him."
Qin Yan smiled faintly, and a square crystal appeared in his hand, radiating surging energy.
As soon as the crystal was taken out, the dragon beast, which had originally intended to attack the human tribe, immediately turned back!
Their gazes were fixed intently on the two of them.
The enormous dragon-like beast writhed and twisted like a snake, quickly climbing to the cliff halfway up the mountain.
His gaze swept over the two tiny figures before him.
They finally pinpointed the crystal that radiated a strange power!
It contains an extremely powerful force.
Instinct told him that swallowing this thing would be extremely beneficial to him.
Seeing this, Qin Yan smiled nonchalantly and tossed the Spirit Crystal in his hand directly to the other party.
The dragon beast's eyes lit up, and it swallowed the crystal in one gulp. Instantly, it felt a warm current surge through its entire body!
Every cell in my body was leaping with joy.
He was so excited that he couldn't help but roar to the sky, causing even the mountain peaks to tremble slightly.
"Tsk tsk, could this be the legendary Spirit Stone? Such a big piece, Brother Qin is really willing to part with it!"
Huang Chao was astonished and could also sense the surging power within it.
If he refines it, he can recover a significant portion of his cultivation!
"This item is precious; I hope this beast won't disappoint me."
Otherwise, he must be torn to pieces.
Qin Yan a cold smile!
"Haha, this is the first time I've ever seen a demon beast advance to the Fourth Realm. I hope it won't disappoint."
Huang Chao smiled and echoed.
These two guys are not worth taking seriously; their role models are those old guys from ancient times.
The dragon beast before us is merely the tallest among the short ones.
Even if Huang Chao himself were at his peak, he could easily subdue this dragon beast before him!
As the two were talking, the jiao beast's cold, vertical pupils suddenly fixed their gaze upon them.
The swallowed crystals were continuously providing him with power, preparing him for a breakthrough to a higher realm.
And these two tiny humans in front of me are no less impressive.
Swallowing them would also bring considerable benefits to oneself.
"Huh, this beast has actually set its sights on us!" Huang Chao's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Heh! A beast is a beast. Even if it possesses intelligence, it's still just a slightly more advanced beast."
Qin Yan remained calm.
"Since it doesn't know what's good for it, let's teach this beast a lesson."
The words had barely left his mouth!
With a wave of his hand, a gigantic palm print instantly appeared above the clouds!
The heavens and earth seemed to dim slightly.
The enormous hand enveloped the dragon beast!
This caused the fine scales all over his body to erupt instantly, but it was too late.
The heavens and earth trembled.
A giant hand, hundreds of meters long, was imprinted directly on the mountainside!
Roar!
The dragon beast roared in agony, its massive body embedded in the earth, countless cracks appearing all over its body from which water seeped out.
Look in the direction where Qin Yan is.
His eyes were filled with terror.
Without looking back, it rushed towards the center of the lake, surging with the huge waves.
The lake, stained with blood, gradually calmed down.
"That casual palm strike nearly killed this dragon beast. If you had used even a little force, this guy would probably have been turned into a pile of minced meat!"
Huang Chao was horrified; Qin Yan's strength was becoming increasingly terrifying.
The speed at which the opponent is improving their strength is simply outrageous!
Comparing himself to Qin Yan at his peak, Huang Chao felt he probably wouldn't last ten moves against him.
This made him somewhat discouraged; no matter how hard he tried to catch up, he found that the gap between them was widening.
The two sat cross-legged, quietly waiting for the sea dragon to transform.
Day 1!
A large amount of mist began to gather around the lake, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi continued to surge in this direction!
The next day!
The entire island was shrouded in dark clouds, and the atmosphere became oppressive, as if something was brewing.
"Is this a tribulation?"
Huang Chao was somewhat unsure of what to do.
Qin Yan smiled and shook his head, "The increased strength of the dragon beast has altered the operation of the surrounding Magnetic Field, which has affected the changes in celestial phenomena."
It might turn into a thunderstorm.
It's plausible to say that one is undergoing a tribulation of lightning. Once one breaks through, the surrounding Magnetic Field becomes extremely chaotic, and the one undergoing the breakthrough becomes like a giant magnet, naturally becoming the target.
It became the Thunder's outlet for frustration.
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Huang Chao nodded thoughtfully.
