57: Yu Mengzhang vs. Ferocious Beast

Di Tian issued an ultimatum, his golden vertical pupils shining like beacons in the pitch-black sky, calmly watching Yu Mengzhang.

Several Vicious Beasts stared at the group with glowing eyes.

If they were to attack, aside from Yu Mengzhang, everyone else would be doomed!

The disparity between friend and foe was far too great!

Bibi Dong's expression turned ugly; these Vicious Beasts were all valuable resources, but she couldn't afford to provoke them!

This was an even greater threat than that elusive Azure Dragon Divine Lord.

"Alright..."

Bibi Dong was about to give the order.

Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly said, "Supreme Pontiff, if we stand with the Great Priest now, we could gain a favor..."

Bibi Dong suddenly looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo, her expression strange.

Chrysanthemum Douluo mustered his courage and said, "At that time, Old Ghost and I will use our Spirit Power Fusion Skill to immobilize that black dragon. You can escape with the Great Priest, and then..."

"Shut up!!!"

Bibi Dong gnashed her teeth, her gaze at Chrysanthemum Douluo practically wanting to devour him whole.

Chrysanthemum Douluo was startled and dared not offer any more suggestions.

Bibi Dong snorted coldly, "What do you know?! You actually dare to scheme right under the noses of these Vicious Beasts? Any one of them could easily crush you!"

"And you even dare to urge me to save a mere child? If he truly possessed the ability you speak of, why wouldn't he act directly?"

"If not for you and Ghost Douluo's incompetence in handling matters, how could we have ended up in this situation today?!"

Bibi Dong, filled with rage, was about to vent it all on Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Chrysanthemum Douluo looked aggrieved, unable to voice his grievances, and could only lower his head and obediently take the scolding.

"Get lost!" Bibi Dong turned and flew away from the area first, completely disregarding the Spirit Masters lying on the ground.

"They're finished! To be targeted by a group of Vicious Beasts!"

Another Elder also left cleanly and decisively.

Chrysanthemum Douluo sighed, looking reluctantly at Yu Mengzhang in the distance.

He always felt that leaving now meant missing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Unfortunately, he was of low status and his words carried little weight; Bibi Dong simply wouldn't listen to him.

"You'll regret this..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo muttered quietly and followed them away.

Ghost Douluo, who had been "unconscious" on the ground, suddenly got up and hastily slipped away as well.

Sky Azure Bull Python slithered over from the distance and stopped beside Titan Giant Ape.

They both looked up at Di Tian in the air.

Before they became the overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian and the other Vicious Beasts were the masters of the core region.

In fact, their father had died in that chaotic battle, and later Di Tian and the other Vicious Beasts all disappeared.

Who would have thought they'd suddenly reappear now... To Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, Di Tian and the other Vicious Beasts were "Seniors."

Xiao Wu looked up at Di Tian in the air, trembling slightly, her voice quivering, "We... we won't have to fight them, will we? We can't win..."

A Rou shook her head slightly, softly comforting her.

"You all just leave. That's all."

Yu Mengzhang spoke up.

"..."

Sky Azure Bull Python fell silent for a moment, a flicker of conflict flashing in its huge bovine eyes.

Should they abandon Yu Mengzhang?

Now Di Tian and the other Vicious Beasts clearly came with ill intentions, and without Yu Mengzhang, they would have no way to save A Rou and her daughter.

A Rou said, "Don't give up. We can still talk. We are all Spirit Beasts..."

Titan Giant Ape nodded its large head, glaring at the surrounding Vicious Beasts, baring its teeth defiantly.

"Are you the legendary Co-Lord of Spirit Beasts, Di Tian?!"

Sky Azure Bull Python suddenly asked.

"Correct, junior. Do not persist in your delusion!" Di Tian's voice boomed grandly.

"He has shown us kindness. We cannot abandon him. Now, you should tell me where you intend to take him and whether you will harm him."

Sky Azure Bull Python continued questioning.

However, Di Tian did not answer, instead staring down at Sky Azure Bull Python, an immense sense of pressure radiating downwards.

The other Vicious Beasts also began slowly closing in, surrounding them.

A siege by Vicious Beasts, and moreover, different Vicious Beasts working together.

Instantly, Sky Azure Bull Python felt the pressure.

With his powerful Bloodline and talent, he could fight one Vicious Beast, but he was absolutely no match for this group of them!

Staying to fight would most likely mean death!

"We are all Spirit Beasts. Why must we fight amongst ourselves?"

A Rou hurriedly spoke up to persuade them.

"Traitor among Spirit Beasts, hold your tongue!" Di Tian said coldly.

His massive dragon body coiled in the air, his golden eyes fixed on them the entire time. Clearly, Di Tian was growing impatient!

If they wasted any more time, the Vicious Beasts would launch indiscriminate attacks!

Titan Giant Ape let out a low growl, extremely displeased!

They were the current overlords of the Star Dou Great Forest. Since when had they been looked down upon like this?

Yu Mengzhang slightly raised an eyebrow and communicated with the Dragon Qi coiled in the sky.

That was something he had prepared ever since he first arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Dragon Qi of the Two Dragon Kings of Ice and Fire was even stronger than the accumulated Dragon Qi of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan through the generations!

"Di Tian! You're being too lenient with them! A little snake and a stupid gorilla. Since they want to stay, then none of them should leave!"

The Vicious Beast named Xiong Jun, the Dark Golden Claw Bear, impatiently let out a thunderous voice.

Yu Mengzhang looked at him and pointed from afar.

From the dark clouds above his head, a large rift tore open.

"BOOM...!!!"

A dazzlingly brilliant bolt of lightning poured down from within!

It was more like a floodgate opening, all of it "pouring" onto Xiong Jun's head.

Though it was just natural lightning, after being condensed by Yu Mengzhang and falling upon Xiong Jun, it still illuminated the entire area like a lighthouse.

"ROAR...!!!"

Xiong Jun, trapped by the lightning, let out a terrifying, agonized howl.

All the Spirit Beasts were dumbfounded, their hearts trembling violently.

What they feared most was heavenly thunder!

Now Xiong Jun had directly suffered a baptism of heavenly thunder.

As the lightning dissipated, Xiong Jun lay on the ground, his entire body charred black, emitting the scent of roasted meat and burning, his massive frame convulsing.

"!!!"

The Spirit Beasts were filled with lingering fear, not daring to speak.

Di Tian, however, narrowed his pupils, staring intently at Yu Mengzhang.

There was definitely some terrifying power on the other party, something he couldn't clearly perceive!

The Vicious Beasts halted their advance, even beginning to retreat.

Yu Mengzhang's move had frightened them!

Yu Mengzhang then released his spirit rings, his second spirit ring beginning to glow.

Without the assistance of the Divine Souls of the Two Dragon Kings of Ice and Fire, no matter how Heaven-Defying his Spirit Ability was, it couldn't pose much of a threat to Vicious Beasts.

But, combined with the energy of a celestial phenomenon, it was different... Pure World Azure Star Flame!

Yu Mengzhang pointed a single finger towards the sky, sending all his Soul Power upwards, resonating with the Dragon Qi, striving to push the effect of his Spirit Ability to its maximum!

The azure flames were not blazingly hot, nor did they emit any powerful aura.

They spread out more, serving as a "warm bed."

"RUMBLE...!!!"

A sound like rolling thunder appeared.

From the cracks in the clouds flew out blue spheres of electricity.

In the blink of an eye, they numbered in the hundreds, even thousands... They were also a natural celestial phenomenon, called Ball Lightning!

Upon entering the range of the azure flames, their color turned azure-blue.

Covered in a layer of fire attribute...
