Chapter 410: The Tail-Cutting Youth
Respected Elder Hu Xiao glanced at the youth wielding the Heavy Water Source Blade, controlled by Xu Fan, and asked, "Grand Elder, can you handle two of them without any trouble?"
"No problem. If we can hold out for eight days, we can turn the tables. We just need to hold on," Xu Fan replied, as he directed the youth to charge forward.
The youth’s face lit up with excitement as he drew the Heavy Water Source Blade from his back.
In an instant, a massive illusion of heavy seas appeared above the Steel Wall, stretching over a hundred miles.
With a single strike, Xu Fan unleashed a blade of light that darkened the sky, sending a thousand-meter arc of light slicing toward Moon Fox Beast King.
Empowered by the heavy sea illusion, the blade transformed into a black dragon, charging toward Moon Fox Beast King with unstoppable force.
"Always target the weakest first—that’s the wisdom passed down by our ancestors."
"A celestial tool!!" the beast kings exclaimed in shock, their eyes immediately gleaming with greed.
"Honestly, if I had that celestial tool, I could take on ten of them," Spirit Cut muttered, feeling a pang of envy as he watched Xu Fan’s display of power.
A giant tail was severed in an instant, and Moon Fox Beast King roared in fury, "Kill!"
Endless illusions and waves of spirit attacks surged toward the youth.
In fact, all the respected elders, except for the Armored Beast King in the sky, rushed toward Xu Fan’s youth, eager to seize the celestial tool at the first opportunity.
"Everyone, stop hesitating! Stick to the plan," Xu Fan commanded.
Then, Xu Fan split into hundreds of clones, scattering in all directions to evade the attacks of the beast race.
Suddenly, Xu Fan’s figure appeared behind Moon Fox Beast King, swinging his blade down toward her head.
‘Bang~’
Xu Fan was instantly reduced to a mist of blood by the beast queen’s massive tail.
"You little pest, do you really think you can cut me?"
"Yes, you’re still too green," Xu Fan’s voice echoed.
A figure suddenly appeared below Moon Fox Beast King, delivering an uppercut that severed yet another tail.
"Ah!!" Moon Fox Beast King screamed in agony.
At that moment, Xu Fan was torn in half by the waiting Wood Mouse Respected Elder, only to be crushed by a gigantic palm.
"You’re so cruel~" Xu Fan’s voice emerged from beneath the giant palm.
Just as the three beast kings were on high alert, a blade of light unexpectedly sliced out from behind the Wood Mouse Respected Elder.
Yet another tail was severed.
"Respected Elder of the human race, you’re finished!"
‘Bang~’
The area where the three beast kings stood was immediately enveloped in a layer of black mist, as countless rat illusions appeared and began to devour everything in sight.
The earth, the void, the spiritual energy—nothing was spared.
The region shrouded in black mist had turned into a dark land of the dead, with the Wood Mouse Respected Elder hovering above, his eyes red as he kept a watchful gaze, ensuring Xu Fan was dead.
At that moment, the Dragon-shaped Centipede Beast King, who was battling Spirit Cut, lost five legs to an unseen blade of light.
Xu Fan turned into a shadow and disappeared into the void, waiting for the right moment to strike again.
"Grand Elder, what’s the point of cutting off the centipede’s legs? Focus on that wolf cub’s claws—they’re the real threat!" Spirit Cut shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Frost Wolf Beast King quickly pulled his tail back.
‘Zeng~~’
Half of his tail was sliced off by Xu Fan.
"Ah, human race elder, I swear I’ll kill you!" Frost Wolf Beast King roared in fury, frost flames igniting on his claws as a freezing aura burst from his body, threatening to freeze everything in its path.
"Boom~" A toxic cloud spread across the battlefield.
From the shadows, Xu Fan muttered, "You think I don’t want to see this?"
He then charged at Moon Fox Beast King, targeting her multiple tails for more strikes.
Gripping the Heavy Water Source Blade, Xu Fan carefully managed his energy, ensuring the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys’ essence wasn’t drained too quickly.
With eight days left, he needed to save his ultimate move for the final showdown.
Another simple yet powerful blade of light aimed at Moon Fox Beast King’s tail, but it was blocked by the spiritual tool she summoned.
"Human race elder, if I could refine my clan’s celestial tool right now, you wouldn’t dare act so recklessly!"
Moon Fox Beast King felt a chill, realizing she now had only seven tails left out of nine.
Seeing this, all the beast kings began focusing their attention behind them, wary of Xu Fan suddenly appearing to cut off their tails.
With the beast kings on high alert, Xu Fan’s psychological tactics lost their edge, and he was forced into close combat with Moon Fox Beast King and the other three beast kings.
Moon Fox Beast King soon realized Xu Fan’s incredible strength—his attacks and evasions were flawless.
Despite the beast kings’ relentless assaults, none of their attacks managed to harm Xu Fan.
Suddenly, Xu Fan vanished and reappeared behind Crane Beast King, delivering a powerful strike that severed a wing spanning dozens of feet.
"Retreat!" Frost Wolf Beast King commanded.
In an instant, the eight beast kings fled the battlefield.
Xu Fan didn’t pursue them but hovered in the air, watching their retreat with a grim expression.
"This is taking more out of me than I expected," Xu Fan sighed.
"Why sigh? We won, didn’t we?" Spirit Cut asked as he appeared beside Xu Fan.
"Not exactly. I hope those beast kings take another eight days to regroup," Xu Fan replied.
"Right now, the Five-Spirit Enlightened Monkeys’ body can only handle two more battles like that."
"Are you saying your earlier fight drained their essence?" Spirit Cut asked.
Respected Elder Hu Xiao and Respected Elder Ling Xiu approached, their eyes filled with admiration for Xu Fan.
"Yes, overusing the Heavy Water Source Blade consumes a massive amount of energy with each strike."
"And that’s just the most basic attack," Xu Fan added.
"Instead of this, why not help me kill a beast king? I can absorb the essence of a dark beast king and boost my strength significantly," Spirit Cut suggested, his eyes gleaming with desire.
"If I kill a beast king, can you handle five at once?" Xu Fan asked, considering the idea.
"You’d have to lend me the Heavy Water Source Blade," Spirit Cut said, eyeing the celestial tool in Xu Fan’s hand with longing.
It was a rare treasure, one of the few celestial tools in the entire cultivation world.
"Can you last eight days like that?" Xu Fan asked after a moment of thought.
"Once I enter a frenzy, I can hold out for eight days, but I’d lose half my essence in the process," Spirit Cut replied, his excitement growing as he imagined wielding the Heavy Water Source Blade against five beast kings, his blood sea manifesting in his mind.
"Would the essence of those five beast kings make up for your loss?" Xu Fan suddenly asked.
"The essence of five beast kings? Grand Elder, do you really have that much faith in that big weapon of yours?" Spirit Cut questioned, knowing Xu Fan was crafting something formidable.
"Trust me. When we face beast kings, I’ll help you cut them down."
"Alright. The essence of five beast kings could elevate my blood sea to a Blood Spirit Sea. When it comes to that wolf cub, I’ll kill them one by one," Spirit Cut said, a bloodthirsty grin spreading across his face.
"Let’s head back to the Steel Wall first. If you want to use the Heavy Water Source Blade, you’ll need to prepare."
"Remember, that celestial tool belongs to your grandson, Chufan. Don’t let greed take over," Xu Fan warned.
"How could I? Why would I covet my grandson’s celestial tool?" Spirit Cut laughed heartily.
