The Living Beast Seal
Yi Yun stood in mid-air, holding the Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow, his entire body surging with vital energy.
After seven days of treatment, he has fully recovered to his peak condition, and has even made slight progress compared to before.
The life-or-death battle with Jiuying gave Yi Yun a deeper understanding of his martial arts.
When Jiuying saw Yi Yun, his eyes widened in fury!
It's this human being who brought himself to this state!
It is currently extremely lacking in the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi; by devouring this human, it can obtain some replenishment!
Whoosh!
Jiuying lunged at Yi Yun.
"Kill!" A glint flashed in Yi Yun's eyes as Sun-Shooting Nine Sorrows Bow and unleashed a pure Yang arrow!
An arrow shot straight to the heart of the Nine-Headed Serpent!
Nine-Headed Serpent was terrified of Yi Yun's arrows. Seeing the arrow coming, it hurriedly dodged, knowing that if it got another wound, its condition would be even worse, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just as Jiuying dodged, Yi Yun drew his nameless broken sword and slashed out!
In an instant, the blazing sun over the desert seemed to be absorbed into Yi Yun's sword strike, and the Sword Light tore apart Jiu Ying's body!
The Nine-Headed Serpent roared madly, its entire body erupting with energy. Its nine heads opened their blood-red maws, spewing out flames, ice arrows, and purple lightning all at once!
Jiuying is the darling of the Heaven and Earth Laws, with nine heads and control over nine laws.
These nine laws are the Five Elements Law (metal, wood, water, fire, earth) and the Creation Laws (wind, rain, thunder, and lightning).
That makes a total of nine!
Yi Yun retreated immediately after his attack. The Nine-Headed Serpent's frenzied attacks put immense pressure on his Protective Vital Energy, causing his blood and qi to surge and resulting in minor injuries.
However, Jiuying was more seriously injured; Yi Yun had slashed a deep bloody gash into its chest!
The already severely injured Jiuying suffered another wound.
"Let's fight again another day!"
Yi Yun laughed loudly, then vanished into the air without a trace.
"Huh!"
The Nine-Headed Serpent let out a shriek, and its massive body suddenly leaped into the air, attacking Yi Yun. However, Yi Yun's body vanished, and its thick tail swept into empty air!
It's gone!
Jiuying's eyes widened. The little fish had vanished into thin air right before his eyes!
Enraged, it launched a frenzied attack on the void where Yi Yun had vanished, flattening sand dunes and leaving crisscrossing claw marks across the vast desert.
However... it quickly forced itself to calm down. It knew that without the replenishment of the essence of heaven and earth, wasting energy like this would be tantamount to suicide. Its injuries would slowly worsen, and the Life Fire within its body would gradually weaken.
At this moment, Yi Yun had returned to the fifth floor of the God Descending Tower. He checked his injuries and couldn't help but sigh, "Nine-Headed Serpent is truly terrifying. Even though it's weakened to this extent, it still has such attack power."
He sat down cross-legged and swallowed a relic.
"I'll come find you again once I've recovered." Yi Yun closed his eyes.
Three days later, Yi Yun reappeared before Jiu Ying.
This time, Jiuying was even more enraged.
It had been waiting for Yi Yun to appear.
However, Yi Yun used the same trick again, only shooting an arrow and slashing with his sword before using his movement Movement Technique to disappear into the portal in the void.
On the earth, there were crisscrossing sword marks left by Yi Yun, as well as the blood of Jiu Ying.
The Nine-Headed Serpent was furious, but... there was nothing it could do.
This time, Jiuying refrained from getting angry, knowing it was futile.
Two days later, Yi Yun appeared for the third time.
In his battles with Jiuying, Yi Yun suffered fewer and fewer injuries, recovered faster and faster, and the intervals between his battles with Jiuying became shorter and shorter.
However, Jiuying's injuries worsened, and he became increasingly powerless in battle.
It is Undying Sea, a terrifying beast of the deep. Even without the support of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, it is not something a human can easily provoke.
But this human could appear and disappear at will, his Movement Technique unpredictable and elusive, and his attacks were becoming increasingly fierce.
The Nine-Headed Serpent is intelligent; it has realized that this human is gradually figuring out its attacks and laws, and then improving its sword and saber techniques.
That's why his attacks became more and more intense each day.
Later on, Yi Yun came twice a day.
Sometimes he would only go back to rest for half an hour before reappearing before Jiuying.
At first, Jiuying waited furiously for Yi Yun's appearance, then gradually hoped that he would not appear, and finally felt uneasy as the time for Yi Yun's appearance approached.
When Yi Yun reappeared, it was already lying on the ground.
"What? Giving up the resistance?"
Yi Yun stood in the air, holding the nameless broken sword, while Jiu Ying simply lay there, its nine heads motionless.
"Have you resigned yourself to your fate?"
Yi Yun landed in front of Jiu Ying. One of Jiu Ying's heads turned around, and one eye looked at Yi Yun with a blank and listless expression.
Yi Yun pondered for a moment, then tossed a relic in front of Jiuying.
Jiuying didn't even glance at it.
"You're not even going to give up the chance to replenish your energy?" Yi Yun stroked his chin.
The Nine-Headed Serpent was clearly on its last legs; moreover, it had completely lost its will to fight.
It knew that swallowing the relic would be pointless; how could this cunning, ruthless human possibly give it a chance to turn the tables?
It was afraid of Yi Yun and now only wanted to die.
Even with Yi Yun holding a knife to its neck, it couldn't be bothered to move an inch.
Standing in the air, Yi Yun looked at the Nine-Headed Serpent, who had completely lost the ability to resist, but felt little joy as a victor.
Ultimately, the reason Jiuying ended up in his hands was due to the pressure from Heaven.
The nine heavenly tribulations were like nine tight headbands, forcing Jiuying to grow and grow again.
Its entire life is spent searching for and consuming Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in the Undying Sea, constantly squeezing out its own potential, for which it must take risks.
That's why it risked entering the God Descending Tower, only to fall into the hands of someone much weaker than itself.
Jiuying has been fighting its way through life, but even so, with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can be collected in the Tianyuan Realm, Jiuying probably won't be able to survive even one heavenly tribulation.
They were originally royalty among the Nine-headed Serpent, but because they were born in the wrong world, their fate was destined to be tragic.
Yi Yun seemed to see some of his own reflection in this nine-headed infant.
He, too, was compelled by fate to seize every opportunity to improve his strength; otherwise, he too would perish.
Yi Yun walked to the nine heads of the Nine-Headed Serpent, holding the nameless broken sword. This sword had once slain gods, and now it was easy to kill the Nine-Headed Serpent, which had lost its energy.
However, Yi Yun did not want to kill it.
In typical Totem Secret Method, to condense a beast seal, one must kill the ferocious beast.
However, in the <Myriad Beast Catalog>, beast marks are divided into two types: one is the Death Beast Seal, and the other is... the Living Beast Seal!! (To be continued~^~)
