141: Chapter 141 Bad News, the Rumors Are True
"Roar!"
The Xiao Yue Tiger's aura surged, and a nearly tangible sonic wave erupted from its throat, crashing into that dragon claw with immense power.
Wave after wave of powerful auras followed closely behind.
Violent energy erupted like ignited fireworks, rushing toward the sky and fiercely meeting the massive dragon claw, which was enveloped in dragon might and covered in greenish-gray scales.
"Boom!"
The group's attacks exploded beneath the dragon claw, and the violent collision sent out a terrifying shockwave that forced the Earth Vein Giant Dragon to shift its claw.
A black shadow fell amidst the chaotic rainbow light, crashing heavily into the ground without any cushion, kicking up dust and making a dull thud.
Yue Yun's eyes widened sharply, and his heart pounded wildly as he saw what had landed before him, causing him to nearly forget to breathe.
That black shadow was none other than the Vajra Bear!
Even the Vajra Bear, known for its defensive capabilities, had almost no ability to resist when facing the Rank 6 Earth Vein Giant Dragon.
"This..."
Just as Yue Yun was about to speak, his shoulder suddenly sank.
The solemn-faced Zhao Linchuan stepped forward, pressed down on Yue Yun's shoulder to shield him behind his back, and, while withdrawing the Vajra Bear, looked at the Earth Vein Giant Dragon with fury surging in his eyes.
He said, "Young man, stand behind me!"
As his words fell, a golden Pet Beast contract bloomed.
A towering giant bear, standing over six meters tall, stepped out. Its entire body was covered in thick, dark gold fur. A molten gold Battle Intent flame danced in its right eye, while its left eye exuded a steady, frigid chill, with unique milky-white short hair running across the left eye like a hideous scar.
Its broad shoulders and back were draped in silver-gray armor etched with battle scars, its right forearm was fitted with a giant bracer made of the same material, and most peculiarly, it held a dull, massive axe in its left hand.
Mo Yu, suppressed by the Earth Vein Giant Dragon's gravity Domain and nearly unable to breathe, was still filled with wonder upon seeing this giant bear.
"The Dark Gold Battle Bear is a warrior among Pet Beasts, famous for its formidable combat power. Even if the opponent is a Dragon, it never fears, possessing the courage and fiery Battle Intent to strike at strong enemies!"
The Dark Gold Battle Bear immediately took action.
Its massive figure moved quickly, its Trample shaking the earth like the roar of war drums, as it gripped the dull, massive axe with both hands and swung it with all its might.
The blade of the dull, massive axe was not smooth; instead, it was covered in jagged, broken cracks and dark red bloodstains. The handle was wrapped in oil-soaked leather, lingering with a faint scent of gunpowder and rust.
The moment it swung, a dark red, ferocious light surged, rushing toward the forelimb that supported the Earth Vein Giant Dragon's upper body, tearing through the fine gravel protecting its body like a hot knife through butter before striking it.
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere.
Wang Long's Xiao Yue Tiger and Wind-Thunder Tiger followed closely behind.
Under the leadership of the two Beast Taming Group leaders, the Longzhou Beast Taming Group and the Giant Bear Beast Taming Group worked together, using a continuous stream of attacks to hinder the Earth Vein Giant Dragon's movements.
"Damn, isn't it just because we slaughtered its offspring?"
"What, it's actually coming for you guys!"
"Say no more, our Giant Bear Beast Taming Group is taking an extra share of the spoils this time, you don't have any objections, right?"
Members of the two Beast Taming Groups forced smiles.
Facing the pressure brought by the Earth Vein Giant Dragon, even these Four-Star Beast Tamers felt a tremor, and they questioned in their hearts whether they could defeat it.
"Follow me!"
Wang Long gritted his teeth to withstand the pressure of the gravity Domain, forced himself to walk to Xu Qingfang and Mo Yu's side, and dragged them backward without question.
Contract Power strengthens a Beast Tamer's physique. As a Four-Star Beast Tamer, Wang Long was much stronger than the body-tempering Yue Yun, let alone Xu Qingfang and Mo Yu.
Zhao Linchuan also signaled for Yue Yun to exit the gravity Domain.
The Earth Vein Giant Dragon was strong, but without the support of a Beast Tamer, it couldn't reach its full potential, making it not difficult to deal with.
If it weren't for the three little ones, the combined strength of the Longzhou and Giant Bear Beast Taming Groups would have allowed them to escape long ago.
Zhao Linchuan had just noticed that the Earth Vein Giant Dragon had attacked time and again, and its target was always Yue Yun, who was by his side. Clearly, there was something on Yue Yun that was attracting it.
So, while the Earth Vein Giant Dragon was being held back, Zhao Linchuan told Yue Yun to leave quickly, at least to get out of the Danger Zone and to the outer perimeter.
"I'm afraid we can't leave."
Wang Long explained, "We hunted the Earth-Vein Dragon Bear and got a rock spirit vortex core, which we already gave to this kid. This Earth Vein Giant Dragon might have tracked us down through the residual energy of the rock spirit vortex core."
The energy within the rock spirit vortex core was immense.
The excess energy was stored within Miao Sang's body, and it would take time to fully digest the energy of the rock spirit vortex core.
Unless Yue Yun left the Cangyuan Secret Realm immediately, this period of time was enough for the Earth Vein Giant Dragon to find Yue Yun again.
Of course, that was only the previous situation.
When the Earth Vein Giant Dragon saw everyone, it had already realized that the humans before it were all murderers who had killed its offspring, so it would never let any of them go.
The Earth Vein Giant Dragon easily repelled the many Pet Beasts. Boundless rock elements gathered toward it, compressed onto its massive dragon claw, and slammed heavily into the earth, injecting rock elements to activate a skill.
Skill, Rock Spike!
"Swish, swish, swish—!"
Sharp Rock Spikes broke through the ground like bamboo shoots after rain, one cluster after another, unending. In the blink of an eye, they occupied a fan-shaped area of fifty meters in front of it, turning it into a stone forest of towering Rock Spikes.
In this area of abnormal gravity and dense Rock Spikes, many Pet Beasts could not dodge in time and were slashed by the Rock Spikes.
Seeing this scene, Yue Yun's pupils constricted slightly.
With the same Rock Spike skill, Miao Sang's casting had a huge front-swing and average effect, but when released by the Earth-Vein Dragon Bear and the Earth Vein Giant Dragon, it was completely different; its power was visible to the naked eye.
Especially the Rock Spike skill released by the Earth Vein Giant Dragon; such a battlefield-suppressing killing move was a terrifying display Yue Yun had never seen before.
"Roar!"
The Dark Gold Battle Bear was extremely angry at this moment.
Looking at the Rock Spikes spreading toward it like a tide, it swung the dull, massive axe in anger, infusing it with intense Killing Intent to slash out. As the dark red blood light flickered, it shattered all the Rock Spikes in front of it.
This slash advanced forward, landing on the Earth Vein Giant Dragon's chest with a tyrannical posture, causing its sturdy scales to shatter under the unbearable pressure.
At the same time, the earth gathered immense rock elements, triggering a powerful earthquake wave centered on the Earth Vein Giant Dragon to counterattack the many Pet Beasts near it.
The Dark Gold Battle Bear's rich combat experience kicked in; it immediately held the dull, massive axe horizontally in front of its chest, blocking the earthquake wave with a clang.
Under the immense force of the earthquake wave, even the Dark Gold Battle Bear was forced to retreat several steps before it could stabilize its towering figure.
"This is Earth Resonance Counterattack; every time it receives an effective attack, it resonates with the earth, triggering a powerful earthquake wave counterattack."
Mo Yu shouted upon seeing this, feeling a sense of relief in his heart.
Everyone knew how hard it was to deal with an Earth-Vein Dragon Bear. Mo Yu was afraid that this Earth Vein Giant Dragon would also have the same Earth Scale talent; if so, they might not be able to escape even if they used every ounce of their strength.
However, Wang Long and the others had grave expressions.
Although the effect of Earth Resonance Counterattack was simple, it was by no means weaker than the Earth Scale talent. On an Earth Vein Giant Dragon with the strength of a Rank 6 Pet Beast, it was even stronger than Earth Scale.
"Wang Long, coordinate with me!"
Zhao Linchuan's expression turned solemn. After exchanging a look with Wang Long, he shouted to the others behind him, "Use ranged attacks to provide cover!"
