Chapter 533 The Fifth Beast
?
"Ling Yun asked him back. "And who are you?"
"Chen Zong."
Ling Yun frowned upon hearing his name. "Why are you blocking my way?"
"Haha." Chen Zong laughed. "I've heard a lot about you, so I want to fight with you, and I hope you won't let me down."
"Oh?" At first, Ling Yun thought he was blocking him with something to do with Chen Hong, but he turned out to be just a battle maniac. He smirked and released a bit of his Chaos Dragon aura, causing Chen Zong to break out in cold sweat. "Do you think I'll let you down? If you want to fight me, you can hope the draw will match us."
Ling Yun immediately walked over to his women, and Chen Zong stared at his back with trembling eyes. 'What the fuck! What did I just feel from him? For a split second, I felt his figure turn gigantic, and his aura seemed like it could swallow me alive.'
Seeing Chen Zong's reaction, the male participants also looked at Ling Yun, wondering about him.

"Why have you just arrived now, Yun'er?" Ling Ling directly asked him.
"Haha." Ling Yun laughed softly. "I dual cultivated with Ling Xi before coming here, so I was a bit late, but the draw hasn't started yet, right?"
"Not yet." Ling Ling replied with a shake of her head; she then pointed at the two men standing some distance away. "Hey, Yun'er! They have kept glancing at me and Jing'er since earlier, and Qing Hong also seems to have bad thoughts towards Sister Bing."
Ling Yun frowned and turned to the two men, and they immediately averted their eyes upon noticing his gaze on them. "Who are they?"
"Qin Hong is my Master's little brother." Yi Shu answered his question. "Feng Haoran is Feng Qingmeng's direct disciple."
"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "If they dare to think bad things about you two, I will beat them up later."
Ling Ling and Ye Jing smiled upon hearing that, for they knew that Ling Yun was very possessive, especially after he got his bloodline.
Suddenly, Ling Yun felt a strong killing intent directed at him, and he immediately turned and frowned at the owner. "Is that man called Chen Xiang? The ancestor of the Chen Clan?"
"Yes, he is Chen Xiang." Xiao Feng answered Ling Yun as he patted his shoulder. "I didn't expect you could still sense his killing intent, even though he tried to cover it up so neatly."
"No matter how neatly he covers it, his killing intent won't be able to escape my senses." Ling Yun then turned to Xiao Feng and sincerely said to him. "Grandpa Xiao, thank you for taking Aunt Mingzhu as your disciple."
Xiao Feng shook his head and replied to him. "Since you're Little Xiao's husband now, we're family, and there's no need for gratitude between us. Moreover, Mingzhu is exceptionally talented in the Wind Element, and I only taught her a few things."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding, and he turned to Jiang Yuan. "And who are you, Senior?"
"My name is Jiang Yuan, and I am a good friend of Old Feng." He replied as he observed Ling Yun. "Although I don't know about it, I can feel an unusual aura leaking from your body, which is very strong and intimidating."
Ling Yun was not surprised to hear Jiang Yuan's words, especially since he was a senior cultivator. "Sigh, you're right, Senior. I find it difficult to control my aura, for it's getting more out of control with every passing second."
Jiang Yuan took out a ring and gave it to Ling Yun. "I don't know if this will help you, but since you are Little Xiao's husband, I will give it to you as a gift from our meeting."
Ling Yun unhesitatingly accepted the ring, for he could feel something unusual from it and immediately put it on. "Oh? Thank you, Senior Jiang. This ring is amazing, and it can help me suppress my aura a bit."
"No problem." Jiang Yuan replied as he shook his head, and he could also feel that Ling Yun's aura was not leaking as much as before.
Suddenly, they were startled by two women who appeared before them, and the two immediately greeted Ling Yun, shocking the senior cultivators. "Master!"
'Master? Who are these two women? Why do strong women like them acknowledge Ling Yun as their Master?' Shi Xiaoyin, Xiao Feng, and Jiang Yuan wondered in their hearts. Although Ling Xiaofei had seen Long Ma before, this was the first time she had met Cai Hudie.
However, Ling Yun's face darkened instantly when he saw Cai Hudie. He pulled her closer, made her bend forward, and slapped her buttock repeatedly.
*Slap... Slap...*
"Hyan!" Cai Hudie instantly groaned. "Master! Why are you doing this to me?"
"Don't you know what you did wrong?" Ling Yun asked back as he continued slapping Cai Hudie's buttocks, leaving everyone at the scene dumbfounded.
"Ahh! Stop it, Master!" Cai Hudie could only plead with him, especially since Ling Yun restricted her movements with his Chaos Dragon aura. "Didn't I do it to help you? You even enjoyed dual cultivating with Feng Ling'er so much!"
*Slap... Slap...*
Even so, Ling Yun did not stop and continued to slap Cai Hudie's buttocks. "I'm your Master, right? So you should at least tell me first!"
"Ahh! Yes! Please forgive me, Master!" Cai Hudie pleaded with a pitiful look.
"Tch." Ling Yun gritted his teeth and released Cai Hudie. "If you dare to do such an act again without notifying me beforehand, I will punish you again."
Cai Hudie nodded repeatedly as she rubbed her buttocks. "All right, I won't do something like that again."
Long Ma then said to him. "Master, it's time for you to break through to the Soul Realm, or else you will lose control if I don't help you to open the fourth one soon, and it will harm your women."
"I know." Ling Yun nodded in understanding. "I will definitely break through to the Soul Realm after this competition, and I will see you afterward."
"That's good." Long Ma replied with a sigh of relief, for she was worried about Ling Yun's condition. "In that case, I will wait for you at my place."
"Anyway, do you know where the fifth beast's location is?" Ling Yun asked her.
Long Ma nodded to him. "The fifth is the Snow White Crane, and she lives on a planet not far from here, but her planet is only inhabited by beasts."
"A crane?" Ling Yun was stunned after hearing that.
"Yes." Long Ma then explained to him. "Bai Zhongyi is no ordinary crane, she has a massive body, and she can also control wind and snow at will."
"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding and looked impatient to see Bai Zhongyi.
However, Long Ma immediately warned him. "Master, if you want to see Bai Zhongyi, your cultivation must reach Lower King Realm first."
"I know." Ling Yun replied as he sighed in his heart. In fact, he could reach the King's Realm quickly with the help of his women, but he didn't want to rush it either. "Anyway, do you know about the strangeness inside my body?"
"Yes." Long Ma directly explained everything to Ling Yun via sound transmission, for she didn't want those cultivators to hear about it, or else they would attack him directly. 'Currently, your body absorbs Qi automatically, and your absorption is getting faster and faster. However, if that continues, then the Qi on this planet will vanish, and no new cultivators will be born here.'
'Are you kidding me?' Ling Yun was utterly shocked after hearing that.
Long Ma shook her head at him. 'I'm not kidding with you, Master. You may not be able to sense it, but I can sense that the Qi on this planet is steadily depleting, and that is because of you.'
Ling Yun took a deep breath and asked her again. 'So what should I do to prevent that from happening?'
'You can only prevent that from happening by leaving this planet, Master.' Ling Yun raised his eyebrows upon hearing that, and Long Ma continued. 'As long as you stay here, the Qi on this planet will continue to decrease rapidly, especially since your Qi absorption is getting faster.'
Hearing their conversation, Ling Xi said to him. "Long Ma is right, Ling Yun. You can't stay on this planet for too long, so I hope you can solve all the problems soon, and we will go to a middle realm afterward."
Ling Yun nodded in understanding but couldn't think of a solution for now, especially since the war was imminent, and he couldn't just abandon his acquaintances. 'Sigh, I'll think things over first. If necessary, we will leave this planet, but we will return when the war starts.'
"Instead of you waiting for that war to happen, how about we go straight to one of their realms to stop them? So you no longer need to think about the fate of these people, and you can go to the middle realm unencumbered by all that." Ling Xi presented her idea, which was the only way she could think of for now.
Ling Yun nodded to her, then turned to the senior cultivators by his side. "Seniors, I want to discuss an important matter with you after this competition."
