First Trial of the Third Tier "Crimson Fire Divine Sword"; Subduing Spirit Beasts to Increase Combat Strength

Deep in the South Lake Mountains, a mountain river flows towards South Lake.

Kong Wenxuan stood on a cloud-shaped Treasure Artifact, Third Tier flying Treasure Artifact called "Cloud Soaring" purchased by his Lineage from Bifang Commandery City. Even cultivators at the Purple Mansion cannot fly on their own; they must pilot various flying Treasure Artifact or Feather Boat.

At this moment, one can see a giant crocodile Demon Beast manipulating the water around it in the river below, silently rushing out of the river, pouncing on a black bull Demon Beast drinking water by the riverbank, dragging it into the river and swallowing it whole.

The black bull Demon Beast struggled desperately, but to no avail; it was utterly unable to escape the giant crocodile's "death roll."

Kong Wenxuan looked at the giant crocodile Demon Beast and nodded in satisfaction. It was a Third Tier Demon Beast. Back then, when he chased the black tiger Demon Beast all over the "South Lake Mountains" in search of the Demon Race's stronghold, the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast dared not approach this river and was extremely wary of the giant crocodile Demon Beast in the river.

After the giant crocodile Demon Beast in the river swallowed the black bull Demon Beast and turned to swim into the depths of the river, Kong Wenxuan pointed his fingers like a sword and slashed down into the river below.

In an instant, a crimson sword light appeared above the river as if by teleportation, slashing into the river with terrifying speed and power.

Whoosh... Boom!

With a deafening roar, the crimson sword light instantly cleaved the surging river below in two, revealing a Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast within.

Boom! Boom! Rumble...

At this moment, the booming sound of Sword Qi Thunderclap roar resounded, like rolling thunder.

The "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" has been upgraded to the Third Tier Treasure Artifact level, and its sword speed has been further improved. Now, its maximum sword speed has reached more than nine times the speed of sound. With a single sword strike, its terrifying speed and potential energy are enough to split the surging river water in two.

Kong Wenxuan nodded with satisfaction upon seeing this.

Roar!

The Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast, exposed in the river cleaved open by a single sword strike, suddenly reacted, raising its head and roaring at Kong Wenxuan in the air. Its massive mouth opened, and a large amount of black light gathered within it, about to be spewed out.

Boom! Rumble...

However, before the giant crocodile Demon Beast could launch an attack, the roar of collapsing mountains and rivers rang out again. The "Black Water Divine Sword" and the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword" flew out and slashed down at the same time, transforming into the "Mountain and River Sword Momentum" and crashing down on the giant crocodile's raised head.

With a deafening roar, the giant Demon Beast Demon Beast, which had raised its head and opened its massive jaws, was slammed to the ground, leaving it dazed and unable to get up.

This was only because Kong Wenxuan intentionally controlled the power of the "Mountain and River Sword Momentum"; otherwise, this strike would have been enough to shatter the head of this Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast and kill it on the spot.

However, his purpose in venturing deep into the "South Lake Mountains" this time was not to slay Demon Beast, nor merely to test the power of the Third Tier "Crimson Fire Divine Sword," but rather to subdue more Third Tier beasts and enhance the Lineage's Third Tier combat strength.

Therefore, instead of killing the Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast on the spot, they stun it and suppressed it.

After all, during the previous exploration of the "Peacock Secret Realm," including when resisting the invading martial artists from the "True Martial World," the two Third Tier beasts of the Kong Household performed exceptionally well. In fact, the self-destruction of the Third Tier Azure Sparrow Demon Beast helped the clan leader, Kong Changgeng, to successfully kill an invading Third Tier martial artist.

Having witnessed the usefulness of these Third Tier beasts, and considering the current collusion and invasion between the Demon Race and the "True Martial World," the world situation could change at any time, and a great war could break out at any moment. Naturally, the Kong Household intended to subdue more Third Tier Demon Beast as Lineage beasts to increase the Lineage's Third Tier combat power and better cope with the possible changes and war situations that might come at any time.

Just now, Kong Wenxuan has successfully completed the upgrade of the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" and his cultivation has also been raised to the Middle Purple Mansion Stage the Third Tier Purple Mansion Realm. His strength has greatly increased, and he is looking for some enemies to test the power of the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" that has been upgraded to Third Tier Treasure Artifact, as well as his strength at the mid-stage of the Third Tier Middle Purple Mansion Stage.

Therefore, the task of taming the Third Tier beast was temporarily entrusted to him.

In fact, it wasn't just Kong Household. In the past six months, after completing the transformation and upgrade of the "Peacock Secret Realm," the Lineage team that was originally rotating in the "Secret Realm" to transform and upgrade the Secret Realm was also sent out to find and subdue some Second Tier Demon Beast and birds in the "South Lake Mountains" to serve as Second Tier tamed beasts for the Lineage and increase the Lineage's Second Tier combat power.

Although the Kong Household currently has over thirty Second Tier Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators and is not lacking in Second Tier combat power, the more combat power they have, the better, should a major war break out.

Even if these Second Tier- and Third Tier beast tamers were used to self-destruct and kill enemies, or to perform dangerous missions in place of Lineage members, it would be good to reduce the casualties of some Lineage members and Peacock Dao Soldiers.

Therefore, the Kong Household is now strengthening patrols and protection of all parts of Peacock County, keeping an eye on news from all over the outside world, and trying to subdue more beasts and Demon Beast to enhance their combat power.

At this moment, seeing the Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast stunned and suppressed by the "Mountain and River Sword Momentum", Kong Wenxuan took out a Third Tier "Azure Dragon Command" from his Storage Bag.

The price of these "Four Spirits Command" has recently increased significantly.

The Kong Household was not the only one that thought of taming beasts to increase combat power and reduce casualties among their own members.

It can be said that nowadays, all the families in "Bifang Commandery", and even the "True Spirit Lineage" in the entire "Southern Vermilion Bird Domain", are trying to strengthen their own strength and combat power in order to cope with possible changes and wars. Naturally, they will need to purchase these "Four Spirits Command", which has led to a significant increase in the price of these "Command".

Chant!

With a dragon's roar, Kong Wenxuan summoned the Third Tier "Azure Dragon Command" in his hand. A "Azure Dragon" mark composed of starlight flew out from it, accompanied by the dragon's roar, and entered the body of the Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast below that had been stunned and suppressed, quickly suppressing and subduing it.

Roar!

At this moment, the dazed Third Tier giant crocodile Demon Beast gradually awoke, let out a low roar, and lowered its head toward Kong Wenxuan in the air, indicating its submission.

Kong Wenxuan nodded slightly, activated the "Azure Dragon Command" in his hand, and a beam of starlight flew out, sweeping up the Third Tier giant crocodile beast below and taking it into the "Azure Dragon Command".

He glanced at the river below, which had resumed its flow, but did not linger there. He activated the "Cloud Soaring" Treasure Artifact beneath his feet and flew towards the next place where Third Tier Demon Beast was entrenched.

Kong Wenxuan had already roughly figured out the distribution of the Demon Beast in the "South Lake Mountains" when he was looking for the "Demon Race strongholds," and even drew a map to record it.

Back then, the Kong Household's war to expand "Peacock County" was guided by the map he drew. They killed and drove away the Demon Beast that occupied various places, and took over resource points and spiritual lands to expand the territory of "Peacock County".

Now, if they want to tame more "beasts" to enhance their Lineage's fighting power, they can naturally continue to tame them along the map.
