103: Chapter 103 Blood Refining Ruins, Powerful Monsters

"Oh right," Zhang Erniu pointed at the Golden Scale Bubble Fish, "This is Li Yu's beast. If you want to build a good relationship with him, you can start with his beast, for example... demon core."

As soon as these words were spoken, the three of them had their eyes light up.

"No wonder you are so concerned about this useless beast." Earth Group Leader realized suddenly.

"I hold the opposite view. It can absorb a massive amount of demon cores and still look normal; at a glance, it is not an ordinary beast. It is worthy of being Master Li's work." Green Wind Group Leader laughed.

Upon hearing this, Earth Group Leader realized he had spoken out of turn, glared at him, and stopped talking.

Liu Zhanxing laughed: "Speaking of demon cores, I happen to have a few demon cores from beasts I killed in previous years. I can send them to Master Li."

"I have a box of silver demon cores, plus a few gold ones."

"It's as if anyone doesn't have any."

The group exchanged words, and soon they had discussed the demon cores to be sent to Li Yu. Zhang Erniu watched, a fox-like craftiness appearing on her brash face.

While speaking, that strange fluctuation suddenly intensified. Several group leaders looked outward, but saw nothing.

"Damn it, why hasn't it appeared yet? What exactly is it!" Earth Group Leader cursed.

"It has already arrived." Liu Zhanxing replied.

"Where?"

"Underground."

"Underground?"

The three group leaders looked at each other and simultaneously looked outside the city, at the corpses left behind after the two sides had retreated.

The corpses vibrated slightly, their lusterless fur swaying.

It was the ground that was vibrating.

Boom!

A loud noise sounded, the earth vibrated, and the beast corpses were thrown into the air, only to fall heavily again. People on the city wall were knocked down, then scrambled up with exclamations.

"It's here!" Liu Zhanxing said.

Boom!

Another vibration. Outside the city wall, the ground bulged into a mound, a hundred meters wide, like a hill. The beast corpses slid down the slope.

"It's a huge guy!" Earth Group Leader's expression was grave.

"I just hope that its size is its only advantage." Green Wind Group Leader was expressionless.

Although a beast's strength cannot be generalized by its size, one thing is certain—the larger the size, the greater the destructive power.

Boom boom boom...

The ground continued to vibrate, knocking those who had just managed to stand up back to the ground.

Those beasts that had already fled back huddled on the ground, shivering, their eyes filled with fear for this unseen big guy.

The Golden Scale Bubble Fish was absorbing a demon core. Several vibrations made the demon core roll left and right. It chased after it, then it was thrown to the other side. It gathered the demon core again, and the fish eyes looking outside the city flashed with seven-colored light, revealing a rare, extremely human-like expression.

That was the annoyance of being interrupted while eating.

However, no one noticed this scene; otherwise, they would definitely be surprised that a fish with no combat power, looking dull and silly, could actually ignore this powerful aura and movement.

Boom—

A loud noise.

The bulging mound exploded, and a huge monster crawled out of the ground. It was blood-red all over, with curved horns and four arms, looking ferocious, and it was holding a thick, spiked club in its hands, looking like a demon crawling out of a blood pool.

At least at a glance, no one would associate it with beasts or animals.

"What the hell is this thing!" Earth Group Leader exclaimed.

"It's not a product of Earth Star. Damn it, what exactly is going on with this beast tide?" Zhang Erniu cursed.

Green Wind Group Leader was thoughtful and looked at Liu Zhanxing.

Liu Zhanxing explained: "This is a monster from the Blood Refining Ruins. In half a month, the portal to the Blood Refining Ruins will open in China, the Changlie Tribe's station, and other places. This one escaped when the ruins were opened not long ago."

"Ruins!" The three group leaders' expressions changed slightly.

Unlike secret realms which are controllable, ruins are things left behind after ancient wars, with unpredictable rules and extreme danger. Even their three beast-taming groups would not dare to easily participate in the wars of the ruins.

Zhang Erniu waved her hand and shouted: "Whatever Blood Refining Ruins, since it's here, we'll slaughter it! Let it know that we people of Daxia are not to be trifled with!"

This statement was approved by the others.

The next second, the battle began.

Taking advantage of the monster not having found its footing and not yet understanding the surrounding situation, several beasts moved first.

The Seven-Star Demon Spider raised its upper body, and the magic-qi spider silk that covered the ground quickly closed in, forming a huge web, covering the monster.

Seeing this, Liu Zhanxing breathed a sigh of relief.

The three group leaders also showed a trace of joy.

The spider silk sprayed by Liu Zhanxing's Seven-Star Demon Spider was extremely tough and had dark-element weakening properties. Even the incomparably powerful Black Obsidian Ape could be trapped for a while.

With this, everyone's battle would be much easier.

Before they could be happy for too long, they saw the monster roar, swing its four arms, and tear the magic-qi spider silk to pieces.

The four people's expressions stiffened.

"It won't work, its strength is too great, it can't be trapped." Liu Zhanxing frowned and said.

Zhang Erniu shouted: "My turn! Dalong, use Meteor Catastrophe, maximum power!"

The Sky-Shattering Fire Dragon roared and flapped its wings, flying high into the sky, and then little red lights appeared in the sky, numbering in the dozens.

Previously, a few fire meteors fell, and the Lord Giant Eagle was roasted directly. This time it was a large area of flame meteors, and the power could almost reach the level of destroying a city.

The others were not idle either.

The Green Wind Leopard controlled the Green Wind, forming several strands like ropes, binding the monster.

The Di Yuan Python controlled the earth, sealing off the area around the monster, giving it no chance to dodge.

The Seven-Star Demon Spider sprayed spider silk, reinforcing the rock's control over the monster.

The monster couldn't struggle, and roared at the sky.

Soon, the flame meteors approached. Countless people on the city wall and in the city looked at the huge meteor shower, and a sense of fear surged in their hearts.

That was the fear of natural disasters engraved in human genes.

Some timid beasts were so scared that they were shivering and incontinent. Even a silver beast as strong as the Lava Salamander could not help but crawl on the ground at this time, not daring to look at the sky.

The Golden Scale Bubble Fish was holding a demon core, looking up at the sky in confusion.

Such a big mass of energy.

Unfriendly energy...

Boom—

The first meteor fell, hitting the monster's head squarely. The huge shockwave spread to the city wall, knocking many people to the ground.

Boom—

The second meteor fell, and the monster was shaken. People held each other tightly, holding the city wall, or holding their beasts.

Boom boom boom boom...

One after another, they fell. The whole area outside the city was bright red, fire was everywhere, meteors shattered, heat waves rolled, and thick smoke billowed.

After the bombardment ended, people with weaker mental strength were directly knocked unconscious.

The remaining people stood up tenaciously and looked outside the city.

Did it succeed?

"Green Wind Leopard, Call the Wind!" Green Wind Group Leader shouted.

A gust of wind blew, blowing away the dust, revealing the battle situation outside the city. Everyone widened their eyes, looking at that huge monster.

The next second, everyone was stunned.

The monster was covered in dust, with meteor debris remaining in the crevices of its scales, but it was unharmed, and its red scales were flashing with a faint light.

Zhang Erniu cursed: "Damn! What terrifying defense!"

The blow just now consumed 30% of the Sky-Shattering Fire Dragon's energy; it was one of its strongest attack methods. As a result, after a round of bombing, the monster's clothes were slightly dirty.

Isn't this cheating!

"What should we do now?" Earth Group Leader asked.

"The defense and attack are too strong. As long as you are careful about the attack and don't get touched, it's fine, but if we can't break the defense, we have no solution." Green Wind Group Leader shook his head, and a sense of powerlessness arose spontaneously.

Liu Zhanxing stared at the monster, seeing that the monster opened its eyes, kicked away the rocks that trapped it, and broke free from the Green Wind and spider webs, feeling more and more terrified.

Seeing the monster raise its spiked club, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, even if we can't beat it, we have to fight! Even if we can't break its defense, we must drag it down!"

"Damn it, let's fight!"

The three group leaders cursed.

Immediately, four powerful beasts rushed toward the monster from the ground and the sky respectively.

On the city wall.

The Golden Scale Bubble Fish was dizzy from the previous impact, and the annoyance in its eyes became more intense. It swallowed the energy of the gold demon core, and the Bubbles it emitted changed little by little.

From translucent, it gradually turned gray, and from gray, it gradually turned black...

The black Bubbles drifted, falling on the demon core debris. Those debris seemed to be shaved off by something, and they were a section shorter out of thin air.

The Bubble shrank a circle and continued to fall downward.

It landed on the hard stone bricks of the city wall, and the stone bricks twisted slightly.

Then...

The stone bricks disappeared.

No one noticed its changes.
