Legend of the Great Saint Chapter 1354 - Brutal

Chapter 1354 - Brutal

“That year, a repeat of today’s events…”

Li Qingshan sang at the top of his lungs as he advanced through the caves, song after song. Towards the end, he basically took pleasure in it a little. His voice was particularly resonant, shaking the pebbles on the ground endlessly. It spread through the entire mountain along the web-like caves, awakening the earth fiend beasts from their slumber.

Suddenly, he stopped and listened closely, hearing a strange sound in the darkness. It bore some resemblance to the buzzing of electrical currents, as well as the clanging of repeated collisions between rocks. It rapidly grew closer from the depths of the cave, closer and closer until it was right before him.

Li Qingshan blinked his eyes and wondered whether his eyes were deceiving him or not.

The monster that rushed over from the depths of the caves was pitch-black and jagged, like a primitive, crude statue of a beast. There was even a slight post-modern style to it. It possessed four extremely thick limbs and sharp claws. There were no facial features on its head, just a great mouth that cracked open, lined with sharp rocks as teeth.

There was nothing surprising about the earth fiend beast’s appearance. Instead, it was only the size of a mastiff, reaching up to Li Qingshan’s waist at most. Its movements did not seem particularly nimble and powerful either, but with its approach, the magnetic field became even more disorderly. The small world in his body was further affected.

He rubbed his chin. “So this is an earth fiend beast.”

“Sure enough, this kid hasn’t seen earth fiend beasts before. He hasn’t seen earth fiend beasts before!”

Le Tian howled and slammed his hand against the three-legged golden toad’s back, letting out a metallic thrum. The three-legged golden toad let out a croak and swivelled its eyes before shutting them again, completely ignoring its master’s surging emotions.

Pi Yangqiu smiled. “An earth fiend beast that small really is rare. It’s probably just born from the magnetism. Outside, it would be no threat to a Soul Nascence cultivator, but inside Magnetic Field mountain, he won’t be able to use any techniques.”

Li Qingshan narrowed his eyes and released his aura, but the tiny earth fiend beast felt neither fear nor reverence. Instead, it ran even faster and resonated even louder.

When it reached thirty metres away, it kicked off its back claws and lunged forwards. As if it was sliding across the ground, its heavy body crossed the distance with ease. It bit at Li Qingshan’s neck with its sharp teeth.

With a thump, Li Qingshan casually raised his right foot and planted the tiny earth fiend beast’s head into the ground viciously.

The tiny earth fiend beast struggled desperately, sc.r.a.ping the ground with its sharp claws and leaving behind a series of white marks. However, it was completely useless under Li Qingshan’s terrifying strength.

Pi Yangqiu said, “Yeah, his physique is not bad. He really is quite capable since he is bold enough to lure over earth fiend beasts. However, I think he’s in trouble this time.”

Li Qingshan felt like he could crush its stone head if he used a little more force, but this was the first time he had encountered such a strange creature. Coupled with the fact that he would be fighting even more earth fiend beasts later on, he crouched down, planning to study it closely.

A colossal, hideous figure appeared behind him, over ten times the size of the tiny earth fiend beast. However, it hovered in the air silently as if it did not possess any weight at all. It slowly opened its mouth. Every single tooth was like a stalact.i.te, biting down towards Li Qingshan’s head.

Ruan Yaozhu was nervous. Even if he was a Soul Nascence cultivator, his soul nascence could not last very long in Magnetic Field mountain once his body was destroyed. It would disintegrate in the magnetic field very quickly.

She secretly made up her mind to charge into Magnetic Field mountain and save his life no matter what, even if she had to offend her senior brothers. She would preserve his soul nascence at the very least. Good people should always be rewarded!

Unbeknownst to her, Li Qingshan was not a true Soul Nascence cultivator. While he did practise the human cultivation method, the Sovereign’s Limit of World Destruction, he had yet to convert the power of the demon heart completely into a soul nascence, so it was completely impossible for him to flee with a soul nascence.

Le Tian called out, “You fool, right behind you!”

As if he had heard his warning, Li Qingshan casually crushed the tiny earth fiend beast’s head and looked back. “Oh, there’s a big one here too!”

The sharp teeth filled his face as he threw a punch.

Boom! Rock fragments shot into the surroundings, colliding against the walls and producing sparks.

The two earth fiend beasts’ heads basically shattered at the same time. Their stone heads that contained a vast quant.i.ty of metal was basically like pottery before his fists and feet.

Le Tian and the others were all dumbfounded. With his fine facial features, this kid seemed completely harmless, yet his body was actually so tough. His reflexes were sharp, and he struck valiantly. Even right now, there was not a hint of nervousness on his face like it was all as easy as breathing.

Pi Yangqiu praised him. “Sure enough, he’s capable!”

However, Ren Aoyou said, “This kid hasn’t seen earth fiend beasts before. He’s going to suffer!”

Before he had even finished what he was saying, something happened. The tiny earth fiend beast that had its head crushed clutched onto Li Qingshan’s calf firmly. Another head extended from its neck, biting down on his leg.

Li Qingshan’s vision darkened. A colossal claw filled his face. Everything occurred right next to him. Before he could even a.s.sume a defensive position, he was sent flying by the claw.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! He smashed through several stalagmites and smashed deeply into the wall, buried under the rubble.

Ruan Yaozhu cried out. Soul Nascence cultivators were powerful, but their bodies came nowhere close to Daemon Kings of the same realm. In particular, they were even frailer under the influence of Magnetic Field mountain. After taking on that strike, his bones had probably shattered, and his organs had probably ruptured.

She slapped the nine-coloured deer, about to rush into the cave and save Li Qingshan, but a figure flashed before her. Leng Yuan blocked her path, radiating with coldness and condensing an icy wall three hundred metres tall. He seemed completely unaffected by Magnetic Field mountain.

Ruan Yaozhu bit her lip. “Move aside, senior brother Leng!”

Leng Yuan said, “Junior sister, as long as I’m around, you can forget about setting foot in the caves!”

The nine-coloured deer expressed to her mentally, Piece of wood, oh piece of wood, you’re not made for fighting. Even I’m not better. We definitely can’t win against Leng Yuan.

“It’s over! My dark horse!”

Le Tian clutched his head and sobbed like his parents had just died.

Ren Aoyou shook his head with a smile. “Give up, junior sister. It’s already too late if you go in now. The kid has been carved up by the earth fiend beast a long time ago. You don’t have to feel sad. You can only blame him for being too gutsy and too ill-informed. Earth fiend beasts are completely composed from rock. They have no so-called vital points unless you can find the magnetic ferrum in their bodies.”

“However, the magnetic ferrum might exist anywhere in the earth fiend beast, and it’s said to move about constantly. It’s impossible to find where it is under the interference from the magnetic fields too. You have to destroy most of an earth fiend beast’s body to kill it. Junior brother Le, get ready to pay up!”

“Hold on! Look!” Pi Yangqiu pointed at the Map of All-seeing and All-hearing. “He’s still alive!”

The rubble exploded, and Li Qingshan stood up again. His clothes were in tatters, but there were only a few faint claw marks on his chest. The tiny earth fiend beast on his calf bit away at him desperately, but it failed to even leave a mark.

“Haha, that’s more like it. If you’re all this small, how will there be enough magnetic ferrum? I’ve sung songs for such a long time after all!”

Pi Yangqiu’s expression became uncertain. “To possess a physique like that with his cultivation, probably only first senior brother who practises the Heavenly Tome of True Dragon and first senior sister who practises the Heavenly Tome of Xuanwu can rival him. As long as he doesn’t actively seek out death, nothing in Magnetic field mountain can threaten him.”

Ren Aoyou said, “This kid either practises some special cultivation method, or he possesses a certain non-human bloodline. Hmph, he sure has hidden it well. I actually couldn’t tell at all from his appearance! Le Tian, how could you tell?”

Their discussion had basically exposed his secret instantly. It was exactly because Li Qingshan practised the Nine Transformations of the Demonic and Divine, coupled with his various non-human bloodlines, that he possessed such a tough physique.

Le Tian laughed aloud. “I only managed to tell that he was a vicious person. I didn’t see what cultivation method or bloodline he possessed. However, with such a brutal and wicked personality, he definitely didn’t get here by crouching and cultivating in a cave. He truly is the dark horse that I’ve chosen. Nicely done!”

At this moment, Li Qingshan used a leg sweep to send the incoming large earth fiend beast flying. The tiny earth fiend beast had shattered as well.

With a bang, the large earth fiend beast’s head was shattered once again, slamming heavily against the wall. Its body was covered in cracks as rocks broke off and fell down from above.

Within the flying rubble, Li Qingshan casually caught a walnut-sized rock that was pitch-black like iron yet glistening with light. It was the magnetic ferrum within the tiny earth fiend beast’s body.

“A small one as a first, as well as a large one as a second!”

Li Qingshan was delighted. As he smiled away, he seemed even brighter, like a young man. The earth fiend beast did not know fear or pain, lunging over once more. Its terrifying size and invisible magnetic field was the bane of cultivators.

But this time, no one doubted the outcome of the battle.
