Xia Youchen exhausted his last bit of energy, quickly forming the hand formations while chanting the Beast Taming Technique derived from the Spirit Summoning Beast Language.
He knew very well that his knowledge of the Spirit Summoning Beast Language was incomplete and flawed. Facing such a Divine Beast, it would likely be of little use, and now, utterly exhausted, he couldn’t unleash its full power, making it even less effective.
But, faced with Han Yan’s despicable actions, did he have a choice?
Seeing Xia Youchen forming the hand formations and using the Beast Taming Technique, Han Yan was slightly startled. Ever since entering the cave and eting Xia Youchen, she hadn’t seen him summon the Qiongqi Divine Beast. Han Yan thought he was leaving himself one last lifeline and wouldn’t easily use the Qiongqi Divine Beast unless it was absolutely necessary. This was also the only reason why she had sought out Xia Youchen inspiredly.
Even if the Qiongqi Divine Beast couldn’t match the one behind her, it was still one of the legendary Four Great Fierce Beasts and might be able to hold off for a while. As for Xia Youchen’s Beast Taming Technique, she didn’t have much hope. She knew Xia Youchen’s Spirit Summoning Beast Language was incomplete. It might seem remarkable to others, but he was just a half-baked Beast Tar, and she didn’t expect his Beast Taming Technique to subdue the furious Divine Beast behind them.
Unexpectedly, at this critical mont, he still didn’t summon the Qiongqi Divine Beast. Instead, he desperately tried to use his Beast Taming Technique, whimsically attempting to control the Divine Beast behind them. Could it be that sothing happened to the Qiongqi?
Thinking of this, Han Yan realized her last shred of hope was shattered. She never held any hope for Nian An Yao; she rely involved him because he was too close to Xia Youchen. After all, the old man wasn’t a good person, so she might as well drag him down.
To Han Yan’s utter disbelief, as the Divine Beast was about to catch up, even raising its front paw high in preparation to strike, Nian An Yao bravely stood up.
"Han Yan, rember, I’m not done with you, not done!" Nian An Yao shouted in a tearful voice, then flipped his hand, revealing a crystal-clear orb.
With a slap of his hand, fine cracks appeared on the orb, and nine beams of light simultaneously shot out, all directed at the Divine Beast.
In that instant, an ancient and desolate aura spread out, as if coming from the primordial tis, and a strange rhythm arose in the world between heaven and earth.
Han Yan felt a lightness in her heart, with no more fear or worry. Her entire Heart Sea and Divine Sense felt as though they were bathed in crystal-clear spring water, cleansing away all dust, becoming pure and serene.
The Divine Beast behind her also ceased its roaring, retracting its raised paw, and even emitted a sense of peace and tranquility.
"This is..." Han Yan was utterly shocked looking at the orb in Nian An Yao’s hand.
At this mont, the light from the orb was gradually diminishing, its colors growing increasingly dim, and Han Yan clearly sensed its Spiritual nature was continually disappearing.
"A Spirit Transformation Pearl! So you had such a strange treasure. It’s alright now, it’s alright," Xia Youchen said in a state of shock and extre joy.
"Han Yan, I’m not done with you, not done." However, Nian An Yao’s face showed no joy, tears swirling in his eyes.
Originally, he held a sliver of hope, hoping Xia Youchen’s warning was just an exaggeration, that the Divine Beast, after venting its rage on Han Yan, might have the chance to regain consciousness and not go on a rampage.
Even if this hope was shattered, he still had to destroy the Beast Spirit Pearl at the last critical mont, but at least he had ti to negotiate, not lose everything.
But he never dread Han Yan would be so despicable, so shaless, to directly lure the Divine Beast over.
Seeing the Divine Beast raising its front paw high, ready to strike, he felt the terrifying power accumulating within it, knowing that if it struck down, Han Yan would surely et her demise, and the three of them standing less than three yards in front of her would also be dood.
In this critical life-and-death mont, he didn’t have ti to think much, nor ti to negotiate, only managing to bring out the Beast Spirit Pearl.
Watching the orb in his hand, its Spiritual nature gradually disappearing, turning completely black, Nian An Yao just wanted to howl and cry.
Originally, he could exchange it for so Cultivation Techniques, Spirit Pills, Miracle dicine, or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of rare value, but now nothing at all.
The most infuriating part is, he paid such a huge price mainly to save Han Yan, his irreconcilable enemy.
A loss, truly a colossal loss.
Although the Divine Beast had cald down, ceased its roaring and aggressive behavior, no one dared to move rashly, fearing they’d accidentally provoke its wrath again. They couldn’t hope Nian An Yao had a second Beast Spirit Pearl, for if they infuriated the Divine Beast again, they wouldn’t have a chance to regret.
Everyone watched the Divine Beast with tense attention. The vast underground cave was so quiet that a pin dropping could be heard.
Gradually, the golden flas disappeared, and the true form of the Divine Beast finally appeared before everyone.
Its head was more majestic than the legendary Divine Dragon, and its powerful yet graceful figure captivated everyone. Though standing on the ground, it gave one the feeling of treading on clouds, looking down upon all beings.
What kind of Divine Beast is this? Han Yan gazed at it, realizing that neither ancient book fragnts nor isolated secret books had ever docunted such a Divine Beast.
Its size was evidently much smaller than the Divine Beast apparition ford by the golden flas earlier, no longer than three feet and no taller than two feet. When it tilted its head to observe the people before it, it maintained its majestic air but sohow gained a cute deanor, looking incredibly adorable.
However, its gaze, as pure as that of a newborn baby, also showed so confusion, as if pondering deeply—thus, that pure gaze bore an elent of poignant age.
Clearly, it had just undergone Nirvana Rebirth, equivalent to a newborn state, and though its Spiritual Wisdom was damaged earlier, relying on Nian An Yao’s Beast Spirit Pearl, it regained consciousness but hadn’t recovered its mories from previous lifetis.
A hazy white Light Pearl hovered above its head, emitting mysterious light as the Divine Beast slowly extended a front paw as if wanting to grasp the Light Pearl, but it remained motionless.
"What is that?" Witnessing this strange sight, Nian An Yao montarily set aside his grief and asked in curiosity.
The earlier notion resurfaced in his mind: this Divine Beast indeed matched his speculation, in an initial state. If he could ta it, it would compensate for the loss of the Beast Spirit Pearl, and he would gain significantly.
Nevertheless, after surviving the recent peril, recalling the previous encounters sent chills down his spine, leaving him hesitant to act rashly.
