Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 2773 - The Prey

Chapter 2773 - The Prey

"Rest assured!"

"Supposedly, these two little freaks aren’t very old."

"They’re in the open and we’re in the dark."

Those who hadn't encountered Zi Zhen seemed a bit indifferent. When their nascent spirits appeared, there would be some spiritual fluctuations, so they temporarily didn't let them come out to help in the search. It had taken them three days to find this place, so Yuan Long and Yuan Feng were getting a bit impatient.

They were taking a gamble by coming in!

"To think that they would refine the third-level order fragment so quickly! A billion soulstones!" Thinking about it was painful for them.

"Come this way." Yuan Feng stealthily moved. He already felt some movement in a certain area of the water.

"Hmm?!" Right at that moment, danger approached from behind!

"Be careful!" Yuan Feng was startled. He had never expected that the other party would be so bold as to attack them; what they feared the most was the other party running away first.

Yuan Feng and Yuan Long turned around and saw a purple light suddenly appearing in the depths. The fierce purple demon with six eyes from last time tore through the sea, attacking them from behind. Surprisingly, the prey had attacked the hunters first!

"Catch her!" Actually, Zi Zhen was their main target. First, she couldn't escape and could be used as a hostage, and second, because of the New Shrine’s bounty, her priority was no lower than Tianming's.

The order fragment had already been used by Tianming, so getting three hundred million soulstones would help them make up for their losses as well as let Yuan Yu vent his anger.

"Last time, I carelessly let you catch Yuan Yu first. This time, with more than ten fifth-level cosmic cartographers, do you think I’ll still let you be so presumptuous?" Yuan Feng angrily shouted. He felt too aggrieved!

"She can't escape!" Zi Zhen's appearance had made them forget about Tianming for a while.

It would be normal if Tianming were to go back to the astralscape at this time, after all. They didn't know that Tianming was going to the Sea of Order. Ordinary breakthroughs shouldn't take very long.

Thus, they chose to besiege Zi Zhen! Moreover, they let all of their nascent spirits out. Nascent spirits were adaptable, capable of facing all opponents. Their forms were like totems, and they could change in size at will without affecting their combat power at all.

More than a dozen people, along with fifty or sixty nascent spirits, appeared on the battlefield. In order to achieve the strongest suppression, they all displayed their cosmic charts. The honeycomb-shaped orders in their cosmic charts flashed, instantly covering the entire battlefield with dozens of types of orders.

Various powers and laws affected Zi Zhen, making every step difficult. That was another reason why many people displayed their cosmic charts in battle. The realm of Cosmic Cartography was hard to hide, and once hidden, it was equivalent to reducing one’s combat power.

In an instant, the battlefield was shining with starlight, orders ran rampant, and spiritual beasts roamed, making it quite spectacular!

Zi Zhen had achieved her goal, taking the initiative to attract all the firepower to herself. Compared with the luxurious configuration of the other side, she indeed seemed rather weak.

The nascent spirits’ divine abilities immediately engulfed her and a storm of soul attacks rushed toward her brain. It was said that these nascent spirits could rush into the brain and destroy the vita to achieve the goal of soundlessly killing.

"Be careful, don't kill her!" Just three days ago, Zi Zhen had displayed the strength of a fifth-level cosmic cartographer. They really didn't believe that fifteen against one wouldn't be enough—the key was controlling their force so she didn’t die!

Hearing Yuan Feng and Yuan Long's shouts, whether it was a person or a nascent spirit, they subconsciously reduced their output. With more people, the cosmoforce, divine abilities, and cosmic impulses from artifacts also swept everywhere, making the battlefield extremely chaotic.

"Where is she?" The nascent spirits rushed around, but surprisingly, they couldn't find Zi Zhen.

"Over here!"

They found her using the hexagonal forbidden zone formed by her order. She was moving at high speed and approaching a nascent medium!

"Using me as a breakthrough point?"

The nascent medium's nascent spirits were all around them. And after shrinking their bodies, they roared and rushed toward Zi Zhen, together with their beastmaster. She was only about two and a half meters tall which was still quite small for the shrunken nascent spirits!

Zi Zhen's six purple eyes flashed with cold light. The disheveled purple hair behind her suddenly elongated and directly tore through the defense of the nascent spirits and pierced their bodies like a storm of needles.

One by one, the nascent spirits were pierced into sieves, letting out screams that stabbed into both the ears and the soul. Apparently, Zi Zhen's purple hair also had the power to attack the vita, causing damage to the nascent spirits.

The biggest difference between nascent spirits and totems was that they were fundamentally lifebound beasts. They had orders, heptastar physiques, and tripartite souls!

"So strong?" The owner of the nascent spirits felt a tremor in his heart as Zi Zhen tore through his nascent spirits. She arrived before him and her sharp claws pressed directly onto his artifact, while her other hand condensed into a fist that fell down with a thunderous strike!

"Get lost!" The five cosmic charts behind the nascent medium activated and the suppressive power of his order was unleashed. He thought that even if he couldn't fight the specter one on one, the order of beastmasters was stronger than specters!

Order suppression did indeed slow down Zi Zhen's progress. But in the next moment, the nascent medium screamed in horror, "Six cosmic charts!"

Six distinct cosmic charts had indeed appeared behind Zi Zhen. The purple hell-like order burst out like the waves of the sea, causing the nascent medium to completely collapse.

Her punch was just the beginning and her movements were simply too fast. Whether it was her hands, claws, teeth, or tail, they were all as fast as thunder. It only took a moment for her to tear apart the beastmaster and his cosmic charts on the spot. The nascent medium directly turned into brilliant fireworks, exploding with a thunderous sound.

Fireworks blooming represented an astral god’s death!

All of that indicated that she understood better than anyone that, to protect Tianming and fulfill her promise, she had to kill in the fastest and most ruthless way possible. Injuring ten fingers wasn’t as effective as cutting off one!

When the fireworks blossomed, she let out a piercing scream. She couldn't be distinguished as male or female and was just a purple killing monster. Everything about her was born for slaughter.

"Yuan Xiao!"

The remaining nascent mediums heard buzzing noises in their head. For them, this was originally a mission where they couldn’t possibly lose anyone! Without the constraints of Yuan Yu holding them back, they would be the hunters. They might worry about not finding their targets, but they definitely weren’t worried about not being able to beat them.

Thus, Yuan Xiao's death shook their hearts.

Every nascent medium's face changed. They were just trying to complete a task, but Zi Zhen was desperately fighting to protect what she wanted to protect.

"In just three days, she broke through? Did she use the order fragment? No, a grade-three order fragment would have no effect on her at all!"

"Stop figuring out the reasons. Besiege her! Don't hold back!" Yuan Long roared.
