Walnut used me to boost her sales performance.

Jiang Bai immediately understood.

The fact that the King Beast could be killed by the Thousand Rock Army shows that its strength is not outrageously powerful.

If that's the case, then the three of them working together should have no problem killing the King Beast.

"Could the King Beast summon a horde of beasts?"

Of course.

"What caused the Thousand Rock Army to pay a heavy price back then was the horde of beasts summoned by the King Beast."

Jiang Bai felt a bit of a headache. "Is there any way to directly close that rift and prevent the King Beast from getting through?"

Both the king beast and the horde of beasts are formidable.

Zhongli looked in the direction of Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain, "Go to the snow mountain and find a fragment of the Frostfire Nail. That's the fastest way to repair the barrier."

Jiang Bai's eyes lit up. "I'll go right away."

As he spoke, he vanished like a gust of wind.

Jiang Bai quickly arrived at the summit of Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain and headed straight for the Frosty Nail floating in the sky.

Although the Frost Nails had coalesced, the dense cracks on his body still remained.

Jiang Bai waved his hand, and the tip of the rock spear slammed into the crack.

After being struck several times, the Frostfire Nail made a cracking sound, but no fragments fell.

Jiang Bai grabbed a crack, Bai Yuan wedged into the crack, and with a forceful downward thrust, the lower tail part finally came loose.

Before the Frost Nails could reassemble, Jiang Bai hoisted the enormous azure fragment, which was as tall as him, and headed straight for the ley line anchor point.

Jiang Bai traveled non-stop from the snow-capped mountains back to Heguan.

"I am back!"

What are you carrying?

Hu Tao felt that this thing looked familiar.

"Fragments of the Nail of Frost".

Jiang Bai briefly repeated Zhong Li's words and quickly formulated a battle plan.

Before these monsters discover them, it would be best to eliminate them all in one move as quickly as possible.

The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes for them.

"Ah."

Jiang Bai and Hu Tao moved slightly closer to the gathering place of the beast hounds. Yi Dou carried the fragment, ready to throw it near the air rift after they launched their attack.

A wildfire of butterflies!

The blazing flames instantly rose up, engulfing all the unsuspecting beast hounds.

At the same time, thick bolts of lightning descended from the sky, covering the entire area of ​​flames.

The instant thunder and fire came into contact, it was like gunpowder being detonated, with a crackling explosion that resounded through the sky.

A large number of Beast Hounds died in the scorching explosion, but some managed to teleport away the instant they were engulfed in flames.

The beast hounds, charred black by the flames, roared and instantly launched an attack on the group.

They possess the ability to traverse short distances, and once they disappear, no one knows where they will reappear.

The more critical the situation, the calmer Jiang Bai remained. Wind blades, infused with thunder, spun rapidly around him, forming an impenetrable net of wind and thunder.

The crackling lightning flashed with a dangerous light, and when combined with the wind blades, it became even more terrifying.

No matter which direction the Beast Hounds appear from, as soon as they appear, their claws and heads will be chopped off by the sharp wind blades!

Amidst the mournful howls of the hunting dogs,

Clang!

The rift in the air suddenly opened up, and a huge claw reached out from it, slamming down directly towards Jiang Bai below.

The moment it made contact with the lightning net, the huge metal claw was instantly enveloped by lightning. The wind blades, which could cut through iron like mud, met their match, sparking as they rubbed against the claws, but could not go any further.

However, this did not slow down the claw's momentum.

This king beast from an unknown land has an exceptionally high resistance to elemental forces.

Jiang Bai pulled out Bai Yuan, the golden blade plunging directly into the claw.

He twisted it violently, and the beast let out a painful howl, with most of its head protruding from the crack.

Its head was enormous, as if one were facing a terrifying monster from a land of giants.

The pure blue nail fragments slammed directly into the king beast's forehead, the force of which momentarily stunned it.

Walnut, standing nearby, leaped up, its fiery red staff tip piercing straight into the beast's eyes.

puff!

Dark black blood gushed out into the air!

Chapter 565 Fierce Battle!

The king beast let out a mournful roar, like the sounding of a war horn, and a continuous stream of beast hounds poured out from the rift.

These beast hounds were like a black tide, and their sharp, gleaming claws inspired fear in everyone.

"Damn it! Watch out!"

With a wave of his hand, Jiang Bai unleashed a tornado that swept up most of the Beast Realm Hounds before they could even traverse space after their appearance.

Lightning flashing purple light mingled with the tornado, and the intense electric current briefly stalemate the beast hounds.

Secret technique: Burn the waves and boil the sea!

The scorching flames instantly engulfed the Beast Realm Hounds. Even though they had extremely high elemental resistance, most of them quickly turned to ashes under the intense heat.

However, quite a few of the uncontrolled Beast Hounds still managed to teleport out of the attack range.

They leaped out of the void, their sharp claws attacking the group directly, attempting to carve large, bloody gashes into their bodies.

Several small wind blade barriers rotated around the three of them, blocking the beast hounds that might appear at any moment.

Yi Dou, wielding a spiked club, smashed the head of a Beast Realm Hound into a pulp with one blow, then swung it back and sent another Beast Realm Hound flying.

Walnut's staff was wielded with impenetrable force, and every beast hound that tried to pierce the Beast Wind Blade was reduced to ashes under its touch.

Black blood splattered across the ground, and the dead bodies were quickly driven out of the boundary by the rules, yet the number of enemies showed no signs of decreasing.

Jiang Bai dodged the attacks of the King Beast while maintaining the wind blade barrier protecting the three of them, to prevent the Beast Realm Hounds from getting close and scratching him.

As the three continued to move, the barrier could easily injure their own people if they weren't careful, and Jiang Bai, who needed to be distracted, was finding it somewhat difficult to control.

"Ignore these beast-like hounds for now, let's work together to drive this king beast back!"

Although fragments of the Frost Nail were hovering in the air repairing the barrier, the King Beast was stuck in the rift, using its body to prop open the rift so that the Beast Realm Hounds could continuously emerge from it.

At this rate, who knows when the barrier will be repaired?

"it is good!"

Hu Tao charged straight at the king beast in the air with her back exposed. Several beast-like hunting dogs attacked her back. If she was injured, she would definitely be seriously injured!

"With me here, you think you can hurt the sect leader?!"

Jiang Bai sneered, and the wind blades instantly expanded, overlapping layer upon layer, shredding all the beast-like hunting dogs that appeared.

With a slight bend in his knees, he leaped high into the air, carrying his spiked club. Golden rock element gathered on the club and returned to him. His veins bulged as he slammed the club heavily onto the king beast's head.

A heavy, muffled groan sounded.

The beast's head caved in, and its entire body was slammed down, its massive claws creating deep cracks in the ground.

The king beast's injury made the beast hounds even more frantic and agitated.

The tornadoes kept pulling them up from the cracks, either electrocuting them or burning them to ashes.

However, many more escaped the tornado's control and launched an attack on the three.

"That won't do! Get behind me and cover me!" Jiang Bai shouted.

The wind blade net that he was controlling to protect the three of them was a bit too much of a burden for him.

The goal is to protect the people inside without harming them, which requires constant attention to their movements and simultaneous control of the wind blades' direction and range.

This kind of meticulous operation actually tests one's mental strength even more.

Previously, I focused on training the control of elemental forces; I should focus more on training in this area from now on.

"coming!"

The two leaped behind Jiang Bai, back to back, to shield him from attacks coming from behind.

Realizing that the elemental energy around them was becoming increasingly concentrated, the King Beast sensed a deadly crisis.

His mouth opened wide, and dark elements gathered within it, shooting out thick energy waves toward the three of them!

Jiang Bai's hair stood on end, and he braced himself with one hand, using a massive rock elemental shield to block the light wave.

In the air, a massive rock hammer, as large as a mountain, rapidly materialized.

With a wave of his hand, he swung the golden hammer, and the enormous beast seemed much smaller in front of this mountain-like hammer.

Boom!

A deafening crash resounded, and with a surge of air, the entire beast was struck as if by a high-speed train, and was sent flying back to the other side of the rift, its fate unknown.

Without the King Beast's obstruction, the barrier repair speed increased instantly, shrinking visibly.

The rock hammer shattered, and Jiang Bai, panting heavily, used his spear to support himself on the ground.

The rift hasn't completely closed yet, and a steady stream of Beast Realm Hounds are still emerging from it; it can't stop yet.

"Can you still hold on? If you can't, retreat first and come back after the rift closes!" Hu Tao asked when she had a moment.

"It's okay, continue!"

He had only exhausted his mental energy, but his physical strength remained.

"This is a great opportunity to challenge myself; it's unlikely I'll encounter such a crisis again."

The current situation is far from a life-or-death crisis for them, but it is an excellent opportunity for them to hone their skills.

Ichito licked his dry lips. "Yeah! During the battle, I felt like I'd really mastered everything I'd learned in the past two months!"

Real-world testing is where results are truly tested, and he is completely different now compared to two months ago.

"This master hasn't even used his full strength yet!"

"Then let's continue! Not a single monster is allowed to live here today!"

Jiang Bai popped a few sugar cubes made of ten times sweeter sweet flowers into his mouth, and the redness at the corners of his eyes became particularly noticeable.

Clang!

The long sword slashed incessantly, and under the flash of the blade, every approaching beast hound was instantly beheaded.

The three worked together seamlessly, and not a single beast hound could penetrate their defenses.

More and more bloodstains appeared on the ground, and the earliest bloodstains had begun to dry.

After swinging the hammer countless times, Yidou felt that his arm was completely unable to be lifted, and the huge crack in the air finally disappeared completely.

The three slumped in the dark pool of blood, exhausted but with unusually bright eyes.

"We've really saved Inazuma. I don't know how General Raiden should thank us."

If these beast-hunting hounds are allowed to continue developing here, they might take over every inch of Heguan's land.

At that time, the dark calamity of five hundred years ago will return.

Jiang Bai couldn't think of any kind of thank-you gift that would be worthy of their rescue.

"We can talk about asking General Thunder for a reward later. I'm so tired right now I don't even want to move a finger..."

Ichidou completely disregarded how dirty the ground was and lay down on it.

Hu Tao tugged at her clothes, which were completely stained with sweat and black blood. "This outfit is no longer usable."
