Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 730 - 468: All Paths Breed Life, One Life Breeds Death 2
The black-red soul of the ox chewed on the two golden energies and let out a satisfied "moo." Its aura seemed to grow a bit stronger.
"Very good... This batch of sacrifices has quite the talent."
An ancient and evil voice echoed in the Pope's mind.
The Pope knelt respectfully, devoutly saying, "It is my highest honor to serve the Divine Lord!"
The Divine Bull, now restored to Bach's form, said with some reluctance, "The appearance is just a bit ugly."
"Yes, yes."
The Pope wiped his sweat.
The greatest secret of the Divine Sect is:
The Divine Bull was never dead; it gained a method of immortality by continuously devouring newborn bodies to achieve eternal life. It controls the Pope to continuously select Ox-Type Spirit Beast Saint Heirs with supreme talent.
"Then I won't disturb the Divine Lord's rest." The Pope was about to leave after speaking.
At this moment, the Divine Bull spoke, "There are three mice about to arrive; you might as well stay to watch."
"Intruders?" The Pope was shocked, immediately kneeling again, saying, "It's my fault for not safeguarding the security here."
"It's not your fault; their ability is quite formidable. They can continuously penetrate the barriers I've set." The Divine Bull revealed a cruel smile and said, "Just right, I've switched bodies and need some nourishment."
"Yes..."
The Pope wiped his sweat.
In fact, he understood, it was just that he still had some use to the Divine Bull now, otherwise he would have already become nourishment.
...
On the other side, Lin Chen and the other two narrowly crossed through a narrow crevice.
In front of them, a genuine "large tomb" finally appeared.
It was a magnificent stone palace built above an underground lava river, entirely constructed with pitch-black giant stones, filled with a wild and imposing style.
However, when they approached the stone palace gate, the sight made all three of them gasp simultaneously.
At the stone palace entrance, dozens of corpses that had long turned into mummies were lying in disarray!
The corpses died in various ways, but without exception, their faces were frozen with utter terror!
"Company?" Xu Feng subconsciously muttered the thought but quickly denied it, "No way! Look at the attire of these corpses; they're all the robes of the Saint Heirs of the Ah Tuo Sect!"
"Wait a minute! They... are all Saint Heirs from previous generations?!"
This discovery sent a chill rising from the depths of their hearts!
A spine-chilling truth was about to emerge!
Xu Feng became intensely alert; he knew they might have stumbled into a colossal conspiracy!
And at that very moment!
"Hehehe... Xu Feng, we meet again."
A voice, laced with a smile and yet terrifying, suddenly echoed from behind them.
Lin Chen and the others spun around sharply, their pupils suddenly constricting!
Not far away, the Pope stood with his hands behind his back, smiling at them. And beside him stood the newly inaugurated Saint Heir—Bach, who had just finished his "baptism."
Only, at this moment, Bach's eyes were lifeless, his face expressionless, like a puppeted mannequin, emitting a particularly uncomfortable... aura of death!
But Lin Chen and the others did not focus on Bach.
Lee Zhen felt his heart sink.
This church Pope was not easy to deal with.
"I've been waiting for you a long time." The Pope's gaze landed on Xu Feng, saying, "Giving up the position of Vice Sect Hierarch and choosing to oppose the Divine Sect, what is the point?"
At this point in the conversation, even someone foolish could understand the situation!
Clearly, they had already been exposed.
But, what was with these people?
The Pope would naturally not reveal what happened; he said to Xu Feng, "Hand over the scroll, and I might spare your life."
Xu Feng looked at the Pope, feeling somewhat guilty.
The Pope's Spirit Beast had reached a staggering Level 98.
Lee Zhen's level was nowhere near, completely incapable of confronting.
"Xiao Hei! Xiao Hong!"
Without hesitation, Lin Chen instantly summoned his two Spirit Beasts!
"Roar—!"
"Goo—!"
The Big White Bear and Little Fox, positioned on Lin Chen's left and right, erupted with terrifying auras!
Lee Zhen's Phoenix Arm also ignited in raging flames, entering combat mode!
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be Lin Chen, the so-called top genius of these years from Cangling Ancient Country."
The Pope glanced at Lin Chen's Spirit Beast and seemed to remember something.
However, what truly confirmed it for him was Lee Zhen's Phoenix Arm.
Earlier, when Xu Feng was rescued, the Pope used the clues left by the cultivator with Lee Zhen's Phoenix Arm to track them down, and it wasn't difficult to find them.
"Make your move!"
Lin Chen gave the order, not intending to waste words with him, and the battle erupted instantly!
Xiao Hong raised eight plush giant tails, and instantly hurled eight tremendous Super Fireballs.
Xiao Hei transformed into a black-and-white lightning, roaring through the mountain forest, directly targeting the Pope!
With Xiao Hei on one side and Lee Zhen on the other, they abruptly charged in under the cover of eight Super Fireballs.
The Pope sneered, facing a three-way attack yet remained calm, and fiercely slapped the ground!
"Roar——!!!"
A thunderous elephant roar echoed throughout the underground space!
A colossal figure larger than a mountain, entirely jade white with six tusks like heavenly pillars—the "Six-Tusk White Jade Holy Elephant"—suddenly emerged from the shadow behind him!
In Nanfen Ancient Country, the status of elephants is second only to Divine Bulls!
And this Holy Elephant was evidently the Pope's true trump card, its power shockingly reaching the ninety-eighth Level!
"Boom——!!!!!!!"
Xiao Hong's Super Fireballs exploded, unleashing a tremendous roar!
Thinking they would be effective, but as the smoke cleared, the Holy Elephant was completely unharmed.
Xiao Hei's sharp claws, when grasping the tail of the Holy Elephant, felt as if they were gripping the hardest Divine Iron, emitting a "clang" and only leaving shallow white marks!
With a casual flick of its tail, the Holy Elephant sent Xiao Hei flying!
And Lee Zhen's Phoenix Arm was effortlessly blocked by a white divine light emitted from the Holy Elephant!
In an instant of confrontation, Lin Chen and Lee Zhen's side fell into disadvantage!
The Pope's strength was far beyond their imagination!
"Lin Chen! This old man's Spirit Beast is too tough!"
Lee Zhen roared, the crimson glow on his Phoenix Arm shining to the extreme, as if a small sun were burning on his arm!
He forced down the surging blood within him and charged ahead without hesitation!
The Big White Bear also let out an earth-shattering roar, its muscles swelling up, pushing its Combat Law to the peak, transforming its massive body into an unstoppable black-and-white torrent!
Yet the Six-Tusk White Jade Holy Elephant's defense exceeded all reason!
It stood like an insurmountable Divine Mountain, no matter how fiercely Lee Zhen's Phoenix flames burned or how the Big White Bear's battle axe tore, they couldn't inflict substantial damage on it!
The battle reached a stalemate, with each passing second being extremely detrimental to Lin Chen's side!
Xu Feng watched to the side, his heart pounding, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
He couldn't have possibly anticipated that the Pope's power could be this terrifying!
This extinguished his previous little schemes completely.
"This isn't working!"
Lin Chen's eyes hardened, knowing he had to use the real ultimate weapon!
He swiftly issued a command to the Little Fox through a spiritual link!
"Xiao Hong, now is the moment!"
The Little Fox, who had been maneuvering with the Holy Elephant, suddenly flashed with brilliant multicolored light in its eyes!
It rapidly distanced itself from the Holy Elephant, unfolding its eight plush giant tails behind it like a peacock displaying its feathers!
The next moment, two anomalous fires, differing in color but equally terrifying in aura, brightly blazed at the tips of its tails!
The two primal anomalous fires, under the Little Fox's powerful Spiritual Power control, began to spin, compress, and merge in an extraordinarily profound way!
"Buzz——!!!!!!!"
But it was still not enough.
Lin Chen summoned Little Fire, and the moment Little Fire appeared, it directly merged into Lin Chen's body.
At that moment, Lin Chen appeared as a Fire Warrior, his body flickering with deep crimson firelight!
At this instant, the temperature of the entire underground cavern skyrocketed!
The air sizzled with explosive noises from being burnt, even the space itself began to distort under this terrifying energy!
A small orb, merely the size of a fist yet with a core seemingly holding a soon-to-explode star, radiating with multicolored glass-like brilliance—the "Anomalous Fire Nuclear Bomb"—slowly formed at the tip of the Little Fox's tail!
The terrifying energy waves strong enough to obliterate the heavens and earth caused everyone present, including the previously unperturbed Pope, to have a dramatic shift in expression!
But Lin Chen and the Little Fox knew well, relying solely on this level of nuclear bomb was insufficient to defeat the Six-Tusk White Jade Holy Elephant!
Thus, Lin Chen, Xiao Hong, and Little Fire's newly created strategy must be employed!
