The Way of The Dao

Chapter 254 Chimera

?Yun Mengxin felt the din in all her cultivation essence.

It even seemed that her mind was starting to get a little agitated.

Since she had not yet opened her own sea of consciousness, she felt that her spirit was beginning to shake, as if it were getting excited about something.

Ling Tian was able to know and understand all that Yun Mengxin was feeling through their special connection.

Lan Yin, Tang Wanying, Mu Shuiruo and Long Yuyin were still a little behind them, as their speed was still somewhat slow due to the differences in cultivation.

"There!"

Yun Mengxin pointed when she felt the call to her 'soul' in a certain direction, causing Ling Tian to fully direct his spiritual sense to the location that she mentioned.

Huh?!

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Quickly, Ling Tian watched the space undulate when it began to tear and form spatial cracks.

Yun Mengxin and Ling Tian, with Zhang Xinya in his arms, quickly reached within 100 meters of the space that was tearing. He covered Yun Mengxin and Zhang Xinya with his aura.

Zhang Xinya looked in amazement at what she was observing at this moment.

"That is..." Yun Mengxin murmured when she first saw the space being torn apart.

Her cultivation essence and her soul began to stir a little more when the space cracks began to get bigger. Ling Tian could still feel what Yun Mengxin was feeling.

"A spatial crack..." Ling Tian responded to Yun Mengxin with some confusion.

The call to the soul and the commotion in Yun Mengxin's Chi... did it seem to attract her into the void?

Ling Tian was sure that this spatial crack was connected to the void as somehow he felt the tearing force of the void itself.

CRACK!!!

At this point, a huge crack finally materialized and formed a void and empty hole, beginning to expel an even greater tearing force, as if it had connected to a place and was expelling all the force of the void.

Ling Tian looked quickly at Yun Mengxin, who raised her eyebrows in confusion when the commotion in all her Chi and her soul calmed down.

Apparently, she had lost the call to her soul, just as it had happened to Ling Tian at first.

GRRRR!!!

Just as the call to Yun Mengxin's soul ceased, a demonic beast began to emerge from the spatial crack.

The other girls arrived at once, realizing that a demonic beast was beginning to appear out of nowhere from a hole in the air. Ling Tian also covered them with his own aura.

The demon beast was a lion about 10 meters tall, with a long tail that ended with a snake's head and big wings on its body.

It was a Chimera in a few words.

The aura that it gave off made everyone retreat a little, giving them to understand that it was quite strong.

In some seconds, the Chimera started annihilating the demonic beasts that were near, devouring and killing them instantly.

Yun Mengxin felt some pressure despite being protected by Ling Tian's aura. However, what surprised her most was that, she could not see the level of cultivation of this demonic beast!

The other girls also felt a little heavier about the Chimera's aura.

"Go higher!" Ling Tian told the girls to get higher in the air with their flying swords, and they quickly nodded.

The girls were stunned to see such a demon beast, they had never seen such a big, horrible, and powerful demon beast!

"I can't see its level of strength." Yun Mengxin told Ling Tian without letting down her guard, since that demon beast could also fly...

"That Chimera is in the Nascent Soul stage." Ling Tian responded to Yun Mengxin, causing her to be surprised.

It was normal that Yun Mengxin could not see the level of strength of this demonic beast, as she was only in the Early Stage of the Foundation Establishment. The difference in strength was quite a lot.

The other girls were also surprised to learn that this demon beast was in the Nascent Soul stage!

"Tsk!"

Ling Tian clicked his tongue when he noticed that some weak demon beasts came out of the spatial crack where the Chimera came from. He grimaced when he saw that these demonic beasts also had wings, so it would be problematic to leave them alive. There were a total of 30 demonic beasts that could fly. If they arrived in the city, they would easily annihilate everything in their path because of their strength and speed.

The space crack closed due to the instability itself and the demonic beasts stopped coming out of it.

"Mengxin-"

"I know, don't worry, leave it to me."

Ling Tian did not finish speaking when Yun Mengxin responded.

They didn't need to talk to know what the other one was thinking...

Ling Tian nodded and turned to see Lan Yin: "Yinyin, I need you to take care of some demon beasts that Mengxin will leave you. Those demon beasts are only in the Seventh Stage. Once you finish you return to your big sisters."

"En!" Lan Yin nodded seriously as she drew another sword and held it in her hands. She had already begun to get used to killing the demonic beasts.

Since they could not yet fly without a sword, Ling Tian gave them several swords so that they could use them and not be without weapons, but they still had to get used to fighting by flying on a sword.

Most of the demon beasts were in the Peak Stage of Chi Gathering, while about 5 demon beasts were in the Seventh Stage of Chi Gathering.

This was bearable for Lan Yin, who was in the Eighth Stage of Chi Gathering. Thus, she could gain more battle experience.

5 demonic beasts were in the Peak Stage of the Foundation Establishment.

Approaching Long Yuyin, Zhang Xinya leaned on her so that Ling Tian could fight the demon beast.

"Stay here and don't get too close so that the Chimera won't target you and its aura won't affect you." Ling Tian told them to keep on flying a little far away.

Also, it would be good for them to realize the dangers they will face in the future.

"Be careful." Tang Wanying told Ling Tian with a worried expression. Mu Shuiruo, Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya also looked at him with concern.

That ferocious demon beast was in the stage of the Nascent Soul!

It was clearly two realms higher than Ling Tian's current cultivation.

It should be practically impossible for him because of the difference, but they clearly trusted their husband.

They knew that all those demon beasts were more powerful than they were, so they couldn't help for now and would have to rely on Ling Tian, Yun Mengxin, and Lan Yin.

"Hehe, don't worry." Ling Tian chuckled calmly, wanting to calm their worries: "Watch how powerful your husband is."

The women could not help but smile tenderly at him.

GROOAARR!!

The Chimera grunted fiercely, shaking the trees nearby. Even the ground quaked slightly.

Yun Mengxin moved exceptionally fast, beginning to fight off the demonic beasts that were beginning to escape from the area.

She wanted to eliminate all those demonic beasts so that they would not interfere with Ling Tian's battle against the Chimera, so she hurried.

Lan Yin released her spiritual sense and went to the first demon beast nearby, which was in the Seventh Stage of Chi Gathering.

Yun Mengxin stayed somewhat close to Lan Yin to help her if she was in danger.

The Chimera began to fly, fluttering its huge wings.

At the same moment, Ling Tian seemed to teleport himself before the eyes of others, as he appeared near a group of demonic beasts that were somewhat far away from them.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Ling Tian cut down the five demon beasts that were in the state of the Foundation Establishment, greatly lightening Yun Mengxin's burden before moving against the Chimera.

GROARRRR!!!

The Chimera seemed to visualize the group of women and intended to attack them.

"Don't even think about it!"

Ling Tian appeared nearby and moved his sword in the direction of the Chimera.

CLANK!!!

A loud noise of metals colliding with each other echoed throughout the place.

The Chimera's tail faced Ling Tian's sword, succeeding in blocking the attack.

However, Ling Tian managed to tear off much of the skin of the tail, which looked like it was made of very strong metal as well. He almost completely cut off the Chimera's tail as he had not applied his full strength.

His sword was of high grade immortal classification, so it would be rare if he could not at least inflict a wound on a demon beast that was not even immortal.

The tip of the tail with the head of a snake tried to counterattack and bite Ling Tian, but failed. Its wound had begun to heal quickly.

The demon beast became angry and switched its target to Ling Tian, moving away from the women.
