Chapter 139 The Nine Beasts of Iron Mountain

After Lin Zhao handed the matter over to Zou Zihan, she still beckoned Qu Shu over.

"Master Qu." Lin Zhao said, then realized something was amiss and raised his hand to rub his temples.

"I'll just call you Qu Shu. I called you here because although Vice Captain Zou is temporarily taking over things after I left, I understand that your strength in the academy is now second only to mine, so I'll need you to take good care of the others while I'm gone."

Qu Shu nodded, thought for a moment, and then said apologetically, "I'm very sorry about what happened before."

Lin Zhao raised her hand to signal him not to continue: "I understand that we have the same goal, but I hope this kind of thing can be done once."

She didn't want to experience that strange feeling that inexplicably arose in the shadows again.

You can rest assured about that.

Lin Zhao gave him a thumbs-up and turned to leave.

Lin Zhao, who had disguised himself, looked at Jiang Yan and Mo Zun who were setting up an array and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although both of them were stronger than fifty spiritual streams, they clearly did not have the monstrous talent of Su Bai. At least in terms of spiritual talisman master level, Lin Zhao estimated that he was about the same as Jiang Yan.

As for Mo Zun, he is not a spirit talisman master; he is purely there to assist Jiang Yan in maintaining order.

In that case, if Su Bai were to join, they would definitely have the advantage in terms of formation.

However, setting up the formation takes too long, so it's not a long-term solution.

Her gaze swept over the people behind the two, finally settling on the young man who resembled a giant bear.

Let's make an example of him.

Lin Zhao cast several more concealment talismans on himself, and continued to follow Fatty Tiger after Mo Zun gave him the single-person command.
Fat Tiger's mission was to plant a battle flag in a corner of the Heavenly Phoenix Sea. As he walked, he complained to the people around him, "This time, it was clearly the Vermilion Bird Continent that let the wolf into the house, and now we Golden Crow Continent have to clean up the mess together!"

Those standing nearby chimed in, "It's mainly because of Jiang Yan; otherwise, Mo Zun would have punished the Vermilion Bird Continent long ago! And what about Zhu Che before? What is he?! How could he be compared to the boss?"

Fat Tiger was pleased with what his subordinates said and nodded in satisfaction: "Hmph, but Zhu Che's death has relieved my anger. As for the Jiang brothers, forget about them. If they weren't from the royal family of Zhu Continent, a Kaiyanghui Golden Core cultivator wouldn't even have the right to speak to us!"

Holding the battle flag, he couldn't help but grit his teeth as he thought about the losses the Golden Crow Continent had suffered these past few days because of Jin Miao's death.

But what can be done when the Golden Crow Continent is weaker in foundation compared to the other three continents?

Apart from the Golden Crow Continent, the strongest beings on the other three continents all possessed spiritual energy reserves exceeding 450,000, while the strongest being on the Golden Crow Continent, even the skinny monkey, only had a spiritual energy reserve of 390,000.

Those below keenly realized what their leader was thinking and comforted him, "Boss, if the Source Spirit Vein appears this time because most of the Water Source Crystals have been mined, then your and Lord Han Xuan's spiritual energy reserves can be replenished. At that time, we on the Golden Crow Continent will be fearless!"

Upon hearing this, Fatty Tiger said, "Of course! Once I've built up my foundation, the first thing I'll do is strangle that useless Phoenix from the South China Sea Academy! How dare she kill our Golden Crow Continent captain? She's got a death wish!"

At this point, they arrived at the place where the battle flags were to be placed.

As he counted the array flags, he calculated the position of the next flag according to Mo Zun's blueprints. However, when he reached out to ask his subordinate for the next flag, he waited for a long time but it never arrived.

Only then did he realize how eerily quiet the surroundings were, and he subconsciously looked up and surveyed his surroundings. "No need to look, I've set up an array around here," a girl in a light blue dress slowly appeared in his field of vision, carrying the corpses of several of his men in her hands.

Seeing the girl's pretty face and indifferent demeanor, Fatty Tiger quickly made a judgment, "You? Lin Zhao?"

Without wasting words, Lin Zhao drew the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword and rushed towards Fatty Tiger.

Her figure was so fast that only afterimages remained. However, for a Golden Core cultivator, shrinking the distance to an inch was not a problem, and the speed advantage was basically negligible. Therefore, Fat Tiger Chen Ya Hu did not pay much attention to Lin Zhao who was rushing over.

Instead, sensing that Lin Zhao's cultivation level was approaching thirty-four spiritual streams, his smile turned ferocious.

"I thought you were so strong, but I didn't expect you to only have this much skill. You dare to be so insolent in front of me? Do you think I'm like that brat Jin Miao?"

Although he didn't seem to care much about Lin Zhao in his words, Chen Yahu's attitude was completely opposite to his burly appearance. When Lin Zhao was still at least several dozen meters away from him, he released his spiritual technique without hesitation.

Chen Yahu stomped one foot on the ground, and a dense, earthy-yellow spiritual light engulfed his body. When the light faded, his body had grown to three times its previous size, and his muscles had become even more muscular. From a distance, he looked like a giant human bear.

Along with this change in his form, Chen Yahu's ferocity multiplied several times over. His eyes transformed into beastly pupils with no whites. He roared to the sky, revealing a somewhat bloodthirsty smile, and looked expectantly at Lin Zhao, who was originally facing him. He raised his iron palm, intending to tear everything that came near him to shreds.

Eighth-grade spiritual skill, Iron Mountain Nine Beast Transformation.

This spiritual technique is a forbidden art on the Tianhuang Continent because its cultivation method is extremely bloody, and if one is not careful, it may evolve from the original spiritual technique into a demonic technique.

If it weren't for this flaw, the Iron Mountain Nine Beast Transformation could easily be ranked as a ninth-grade spiritual skill.

The Nine Transformations of Iron Mountain, as the name suggests, consists of nine stages, known as the Nine Transformations of Iron Mountain.

The inherent excellence of the spiritual technique determines that its power will not be weak. Each transformation requires the essence and soul of a spiritual beast to be forged into the cultivator's body to stimulate the ferocity and attack power of each transformation. Therefore, based on the spiritual technique itself, the more extraordinary the essence and blood of the spiritual beast used, the stronger the Iron Mountain Nine Beast Transformation will be.

However, to this day, no one has been able to cultivate the Iron Mountain Nine Beast Transformation to the ninth transformation.

Because of the Nine Transformations of Iron Mountain, each transformation yields a stronger essence of spirit beasts than the previous one, and unleashes a greater ferocity.

Even high-ranking cultivators would find it difficult to withstand the ferocity of a high-ranking spirit beast's soul and blood after it enters their body. Once they can't withstand it, they will become irrational monsters who only know how to eat raw meat and drink blood.

However, for cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, the Iron Mountain Nine Beast Transformation is undoubtedly comparable to a divine skill.

Chen Yahu is currently using the Iron Mountain Beast Transformation. When he first started practicing this technique, he used the essence and soul of a bear-shaped spirit beast, the Mountain-Opening Bear.

The Mountain-Opening Bear clan is renowned for its formidable physical strength and immense power. The first transformation, evolved from the essence, blood, and soul of this clan, greatly amplified Chen Yahu's physical strength and power, while also unleashing his ferocity.

Facing Lin Zhao's onslaught, Chen Yahu laughed heartily and unleashed a powerful punch.

His spiritual foundation surpasses Lin Zhao's, and now, with the enhancement of the Nine Beasts Transformation of Iron Mountain, how could Lin Zhao possibly shake his physical body and aura?!
"go to hell!"

However, when this seemingly inevitable punch landed on Lin Zhao, Chen Yahu was stunned because he felt no impact on his body. Then, a mocking voice suddenly reached his ears.

"Idiot, I'm up there."
