Strongest Spirit Beast Master Family

Chapter 99: Chapter 99 Hunter And Prey 2

Just as the Wind Eagle's beak was less than half a foot away from Blaze Regret, a green tortoise shell suddenly appeared and spun rapidly. Instantly, a dull sound echoed, and the diving Wind Eagle was sent flying backward, swaying a few times before it could stabilize itself.

"Shriek!"

Blood covered its beak as the Wind Eagle's mournful cries pierced the night sky, lighting up countless households.

"How could this be?"

Staring at the green tortoise shell surrounding Blaze Regret, Pit Rock looked as if he'd seen a ghost. But before he could issue another command, the Ice Control Irenix beside Blaze Regret moved, soaring into the sky, and tiny ice crystals slowly fell.

"Return!" Pit Rock hurriedly called back the Wind Eagle, knowing that he had encountered a tough opponent today.

"Return where?"

Under Blaze Regret's cold gaze, the edges of the Ice Control Irenix's wings began to gather cold, hard ice, doubling the size of its wings. Then, like a sharp guillotine, it slashed out fiercely.

"Arrogant."

Snow Azrul snorted coldly, and the Withered Wood Demon beside him immediately waved its dried branches. Each branch extended rapidly, creating a scene that seemed to cover the sky.

Seeing this, a cold gleam flashed in Blaze Regret's eyes. With a flip of his hand, a Flame red fruit appeared in his palm. He then threw it towards the branches enveloping the Ice Control Irenix from a distance.

This fruit was called the Flame Burst Fruit, produced by the lord level spirit beast, the Flame Burst Tree. Similar to the Blue Demon Tree's fruit, it could generate terrifying destructive power through explosions.

However, unlike the Blue Demon Tree's fruit, the Flame Burst Fruit is a true fire attribute fruit, significantly increasing its damage against wood type spirit beasts.

Seeing the Flame red fruit flying towards it, the Withered Wood Demon instinctively sensed a fatal threat. Thus, its overwhelming branches quickly retracted. The Flame Burst Fruit, having missed its target, exploded in mid air.

"Boom!"

Scorching energy swept through, like a Flame blossom blooming in the sky.

Though the Flame Burst Fruit missed, Blaze Regret's face remained calm. His goal in throwing the fruit was to buy time for the Ice Control Irenix to finish off the Wind Eagle, and it seemed that he had achieved just that.

Surrounded by ice crystals, the Ice Control Irenix swiftly caught up to the heavily injured Wind Eagle. Its sharp ice wings sliced through the Wind Eagle's body effortlessly, like a knife through butter.

The Wind Eagle's pupils contracted sharply as it flew a dozen yards before its body split in two, falling helplessly to the ground. Blood poured out like a torrential rain, creating a bloody path on the ground.

"Wind Eagle!"

Pit Rock was furious and heartbroken. If the Wind Eagle had been in peak condition, it wouldn't have been defeated so easily by the Ice Control Irenix. However, the Wind Eagle had first suffered a heavy blow from the Black tortoise shell, shattering its beak and causing immense pain.

Focused only on escaping, it took no defensive measures, allowing the Ice Control Irenix to slice it in half effortlessly.

"Swish!"

At the moment the Ice Control Irenix killed the Wind Eagle, the ground beneath Blaze Regret's feet suddenly cracked open. A massive figure burst forth, and a Snake claw, glistening with a dark sheen, struck at him heavily.

As Blaze Regret looked down, he could see the Ghost faced Snake's crimson eyes.

"Boom!"

With a thunderous roar, Blaze Regret's foot stepped on the Black tortoise Shell, propelling him into the air. At the same time, the sound of rustling wind arose as a series of withered tree branches shot towards him, intending to pierce through his body.

Blaze Regret opened his palm once more and threw another Flame Burst Fruit. This time, the fruit was aimed beneath the Black tortoise shell.

As the Flame Burst Fruit exploded, the surging energy blast swept through the area. Blaze Regret clung tightly to the turtle shell, which propelled him into the sky before landing him on the back of the Ice Control Irenix. The branches shooting towards him were instantly reduced to dust.

The reason Blaze Regret chose to detonate the Flame Burst Fruit in this manner was that if he had targeted either the Withered Wood Demon or the Ghost faced Snake directly, he would have been attacked by the other. Although the Black tortoise shell was tough, it was not agile. Any misstep could have turned him into a corpse within seconds.

Looking at the cracks in his palm caused by gripping the turtle shell, Blaze Regret grimaced. He then glanced downwards and found that the explosion had left only a deep pit and some wood chips. There was no trace of the Ghost faced Snake.

Suddenly, Blaze Regret's eyes sharpened. With a wave of his hand, the Black tortoise shell shot out like a broad shield, halting in front of the Ice Control Irenix.

"Whoosh!"

A sharp whistling sound rang out as a long Snake tail struck the turtle shell with immense force, pushing both the shield and the Ice Control Irenix back several yards.

"Cunning brat."

On the side of a tall tree, the Ghost faced Snake clung tightly to the tree branch. Its rider, the Withered Wood Elder, wore a sullen expression.

Despite attacking twice, they had failed to kill Blaze Regret, who was merely a spirit warrior. This was a blow to the elder's pride.

Feeling the numerous branches approaching from below, a cold killing intent surged in Blaze Regret's eyes.

"Ice Control Irenix, charge down!"

Following the command, the Ice Control Irenix swiftly dove down, deftly dodging the incoming branches.

"Old man, I was trying to ignore you, but you just had to push it."

Eyeing Snow Azrul's aged, gloomy face, Blaze Regret gently stroked the Void Realm Stone. The last Flame Burst Fruit appeared in his hand.

These Flame Burst Fruits were obtained from the top floor of the Dark Spirit Tower. Each one cost forty thousand, an astronomical price for ordinary spirit masters. However, for Blaze Regret, who was about to embark on his training journey, no amount of gold coins in his token could compare.
