Chapter 1243: The Monster
November 13th, 2017
In a small valley within Anping Kingdom, where corpses lay scattered.
The day after Zhang He and his group took action, Yuan Hong's target, which was also the target of the aberrant beast, remained in the same place.
The reason this monster lingered here was not because it had become so confident in its strength that it acted without restraint, thinking that even if it stayed, Yuan Hong couldn't do anything to it. Although this was indeed the case, the real reason it stayed was simply because it couldn't move.
In fact, as Zhang He had witnessed earlier, its current state was terrible in every way.
On one hand, it had been injured by a 'human', and the wounds were severe. On the other hand, due to the injury, various problems that this monster had been dealing with all erupted at once.
Although these problems were serious, the monster could have managed them. However, just as it was in the process of dealing with them, Zhang He and his group suddenly appeared!
This completely disrupted the monster's plans, causing the issues it was almost able to resolve to not only remain unresolved but also worsen.
It had taken almost a full year for it to gradually recover from its terrible state, and now, after a single battle, it was thrown back into that condition. At this moment, its entire body was in a state of rebellion, and even the tail that had grown not long ago now had a layer of white bone armor, while three bone spikes had emerged on its back, making it look extremely ferocious.
However, it had become indifferent to these external changes; it didn't care about its appearance anymore. The truly terrible part was that its control over its body was about to be taken away again, which was something it dreaded the most.
It was well aware of its current strength, as well as the brutality and cruelty of the entity vying for control of its body. Once its bodily control was seized again, it knew it wouldn't be able to control what that entity would do.
At that point, it would become a thorough monster, driven solely by slaughter and destruction!
It didn't want to do anything in that state that it would regret for the rest of its life. So, after defeating Zhang He and his group, it had been struggling against that entity.
Unfortunately, its rhythm had been disrupted, and during that process, it not only suffered severe injuries but also sustained mental trauma. Moreover, a unique drawback of its cultivation technique surfaced at this critical moment.
Now, it had to face not only the savage and brutal will emanating from its bones but also the corrosion of the demonic aura stored in the other half of its body, which hadn't been refined in this form.
Under the assault from both sides, it couldn't hold on!
Sometimes, one had to accept fate. Just as this monster was about to succumb, a sense of crisis suddenly enveloped it. The terrifying crisis caused the monster's tail to rise high, and sharp bone spikes emerged from its scalp, instinctively putting it on high alert.
Almost simultaneously, a flame appeared out of thin air and slammed into it, trapping it within a massive fireball.
Within the enormous fireball, half of the monster's body turned black and charred instantly, and the aroma of roasted meat spread. The monster's face contorted in agony.
As the 'monster' suffered in agony, a crimson tiger appeared before it.
This crimson tiger stood about two meters tall and was five meters long. Its entire body was covered in fiery red fur, resembling a blazing flame. It exuded an aura of royalty, and based on its data, its strength was at least 99!
The tiger seemed to possess some intelligence, and its gaze upon the monster was filled with a desire to devour it whole, along with a hint of apprehension.
Of course, more than being cautious of the monster's current state, he was delighted, as it was evident that the monster was under his control. It could be seen that the monster was in agony!
One could say that the tiger's intelligence was lacking, as it could see the monster's suffering but not its strange condition.
The monster within the flames, despite its hideous expression and half of its body already charred, showed no signs of movement. It sat silently amidst the flames, enduring the terrifying fire without a hint of resistance or sound.
In fact, within the flames, a surge of energy was rapidly circulating in the other half of the monster's body, but it had yet to erupt.
It wasn't until the burned half of the 'monster's' body emitted a dense black aura that the creature finally reacted.
"Hmm, how should I put it... My luck has been pretty good lately!"
As this hoarse voice echoed, the right half of the monster's body, which was still intact, suddenly underwent a strange transformation. The massive flames that had engulfed it were devoured by the orange-red half of its body.
This sudden change startled the fire tiger, and although it didn't know what had happened, it was clear that its flames had failed to kill the monster. Instinctively, the tiger summoned flames once again.
Highly concentrated flames erupted from the fire tiger's mouth, bombarding the monster like cannonballs.
However, at that moment, the monster seemed to have activated some kind of cheat, as it no longer showed any fear of the scorching flames that had nearly killed it. Instead, it fearlessly absorbed the terrifying heat.
Simultaneously, the monster sprang into action, and in an instant, it appeared before the fire tiger.
Before anyone could react, the fire tiger's neck was ensnared by the monster's tail.
"Playing with fire, huh? You're still far from being a match for me, you beast!"
As the monster's deep voice resonated, its tail constricted, twisting the fire tiger's head until it snapped. At the same time, the monster opened its mouth, revealing an orange vortex that forcefully sucked in the energy from the fire tiger's body.
After devouring the fire tiger's energy, a strange and scorching energy flowed through the monster's body in an enigmatic manner. As this energy coursed through it, the monster's body, which had been completely charred and revealed blackened bones, began to slowly regenerate.
Only then did the monster heave a sigh of relief: "Thanks to that fire tiger, the will of that thing has been temporarily suppressed. Finally, I have some time."
As he spoke, the monster turned its head towards the direction of the beast army. Its remaining eye glowed with an orange light: "While I still have some time, let's deal with that dangerous fellow!"
Without further ado, the monster took action, turning and heading towards the direction of the beast army...
