Chapter 27: The Double Pupils Show Their Power Again, Destroying All Magical Abilities
Awoo~~
The Silver Moon Wolf King howled at the sky before charging towards Qin Bei.
Out of caution, Qin Bei did not respond immediately.
After all, it was a fourth-rank monster, and he couldn’t afford to be careless.
“What incredible speed!”
In the blink of an eye, the Silver Moon Wolf King had appeared right in front of him.
Not only that, but the attack followed immediately.
This speed forced Qin Bei to activate his Double Pupils right away.
Once the Double Pupils were opened, the world around him transformed. The once swift Silver Moon Wolf King now appeared sluggish to Qin Bei. Flaws popped up like automatic punctuation marks in his vision.
As long as Qin Bei wanted, he could strike at the weaknesses of the Silver Moon Wolf King at any moment. While he might not be able to land a fatal blow, he could certainly inflict some damage.
However, Qin Bei chose not to attack the wolf king’s weak points.
By luring the beast’s roar, he sought both vengeance for his predecessor and an opportunity to hone his combat skills.
Thus, he opted for a head-on confrontation with the Silver Moon Wolf King.
“Hmph! Ridiculous! You actually think you can take on a fourth-rank Wolf King head-on? You’re truly unaware of how vast the world is!”
The one called Beast Cry observed Qin Bei’s actions and couldn’t help but sneer.
Although the Silver Moon Wolf King wasn’t primarily an attacker, having reached the fourth rank meant its raw power exceeded a million jin.
He couldn’t believe there was anyone capable of reaching such levels in the Body Refinement Realm.
And indeed, as Beast Cry suspected, Qin Bei, who had not yet fully mastered the 600,000 jin power he possessed, was no match for the Silver Moon Wolf King.
In their first collision, Qin Bei was sent flying. As he stabilized himself, he saw a gully stretch out a hundred meters before him.
That one blow had knocked him back a hundred meters.
Cough cough~
Qin Bei waved his hand to clear the dust kicked up around him.
“That’s some serious strength.”
Though sent flying so far, Qin Bei only experienced a brief rolling of blood and qi before it settled. Moreover, he realized that after this hit, his control over power became smoother.
If he had previously invoked eighty percent of his 600,000 jin strength, now it was up to eighty-one percent.
“Bring it on!”
Not allowing the Silver Moon Wolf King a moment to think, Qin Bei lunged forward like a human missile.
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
With every exchange, Qin Bei was knocked away, yet he managed to land on his feet each time.
Beast Cry stood off to the side, convinced he was untroubled.
Since the Silver Moon Wolf King hadn’t even revealed its true power to suppress Qin Bei, he decided to let the wolf king toy with him a little longer; after all, there was plenty of time.
…
“Your Majesty, Prince Bei is indeed impressive, able to achieve 500,000 jin of strength in the Body Refinement Realm. However, the Silver Moon Wolf King is already a fourth-rank demon beast with strength far surpassing that of Prince Bei. There’s no need to rush in enhancing the prince’s combat skills; how about letting this old servant take action instead?”
An elder beside Emperor Xia spoke up.
“Old man Ying, you weren’t present in the hall that day. My son isn’t as simple as you think. Just a few days have passed, and his strength has increased by over 200,000 jin. He’s still growing stronger. Forget Cangzhou, in the entire cultivation realm, how many have you heard of with such potential?”
“And this kid’s real strength doesn’t simply lie in his visible power. His ability to kill Hun Tian wasn’t sheer luck; it was inevitable. Just watch, he hasn’t yet exerted full force, and I can’t figure out what he’s up to.”
In comparison to the Shadow Guard commander, Emperor Xia remained considerably calm.
But he had little choice; Ying had become a Shadow Guard from birth. Even after all this time, it was etched in his bones that he couldn’t allow any royal family member to get into trouble while he was around.
Their conversation went unheard, and the battle below continued to tilt heavily in one direction.
However, Beast Cry gradually sensed a problem.
Despite the Silver Moon Wolf King’s continual suppression, Qin Bei showed no signs of injury and only seemed to fight with increasing vigor.
Boom!
Another strike sent Qin Bei flying once more.
Yet this time was much better than the first; there wasn’t a long gully formed, nor did dust billow around.
Qin Bei landed gently, like cotton.
“Prince Bei, you’ve had your fun, but you’re not my match. Now, if you hand over what I want, I won’t kill you. Instead, I’ll keep you in my beast control space. Once I become a god of war, you will be my top general. How does that sound?”
Beast Cry mused to himself, wondering what the point of eliminating a Body Refinement Realm prince would be.
It would be far more entertaining to turn the Great Xia prince into his own battle beast.
Especially the thought of giving just one command and having Qin Bei turn against Great Xia excited him immensely.
“Right, I’ve had enough playtime. I’ve almost mastered my strength; it’s time to finish this.”
Qin Bei rarely paid Beast Cry’s outburst any mind, focusing instead on the fully controlled 600,000 jin of power within him.
“To thank you for helping me refine my skills, I’ll reward you with a quick death. I guarantee the pain will last only a second.”
“Ha~ Still trying to act tough in front of me! Silver Moon Wolf King, don’t hold back. Defeat him with all your might; this battle beast is mine to raise!”
Beast Cry couldn’t stand Qin Bei’s hubris.
Roar!
Receiving the order, the Silver Moon Wolf King naturally obeyed and unleashed its most powerful strike directly.
It was not just about raw strength; it was about speed—especially after breaking through to the fourth rank and awakening its bloodline powers—Silver Moon Slash!
This technique was a unique hereditary ability of demon beasts. The Silver Moon Wolf King had awakened this power and reached the initial stage of Earth Grade.
When perfectly executed, it could cut down a newly promoted Golden Core Realm cultivator like chopping vegetables, let alone Qin Bei in the Body Refinement Realm.
Turning him to dust was not out of the realm of possibility.
With a flash of silver, the Silver Moon Wolf King surged towards Qin Bei, resembling a gigantic silver-lit blade striking down upon him—so fast that even Foundation Establishment cultivators would struggle to react.
“Your Majesty, this…”
This time, Ying had nothing more to say, for his restless form had betrayed him.
This attack was merely child’s play for his level, but he was up against Qin Bei in the Body Refinement Realm.
It was undoubtedly like an adult wielding a divine weapon against a child.
Emperor Xia remained calm, but Ying sensed a force quietly surging towards Qin Bei below.
…
Yet this attack appeared entirely different in Qin Bei’s eyes.
The Double Pupils unleashed their power once more.
“This move has so many weaknesses; I can’t decide which one to choose.”
Qin Bei scoffed.
Then the colossal attack bore down towards his thigh.
“Once you’re disabled, Young Master will ensure you’re well trained.”
Beast Cry approached with a smile, believing Qin Bei would surely fall to this strike, making it time for him to claim the victory.
However, in the next moment, he saw his war beast halt right before Qin Bei.
Not only that, for reasons unknown, the demon beast’s powers inexplicably dissipated, leaving…
Without inflicting any harm on Qin Bei at all.
