Chapter 38: Fierce Giant Crocodile
Editor: Atlas Studios
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The furious roar was endless.
In the middle of the green river, three giant crocodiles were engaged in a tragic battle.
The largest of them was 30 meters long. Taking advantage of its size, it tore at the other two smaller crocodiles.
Bright red blood flowed from the little crocodile's body. In a short while, the green river was dyed red.
"The ferocious beasts are too fierce, the spirit beast can't hold on anymore."
A monk-looking man stood on the shore, staring intently at the battle of the giant beasts in the middle of the river.
The two smaller crocodiles were the crocodile spirit beasts that the Yellow Mountain Temple had just tamed. After the Yellow Mountain Temple subdued the second crocodile, they gathered experts and rushed to the green river.
There were already believers who had informed him of the whereabouts of the crocodile leader, so he naturally would not find the wrong direction.
"Eight Heavenly Dragons, form the Heavenly Guardians Demon Subduing Array!"
"Yes!"
Eight figures walked out from behind Abbot Chiba. Then, they each found a spot to stand still.
"Four Great Protectors, step forward and set up the Inescapable Trap Formation!"
"Yes!"
At this moment, the four burly monks also walked out one after another and stopped beside the Eight Heavenly Dragons.
"Abbot Chiba…"
"Abbot Zhishan, wait. This crocodile is fierce. If we don't defeat it first, it'll be very difficult to subdue."
Seeing that Abbot Zhishan wanted to help immediately, Abbot Chiba raised his hand to stop him.
How could the crocodile leader be so easy to subdue? Although the mountain guardian spirit beast had gone to exhaust its stamina, the crocodile leader and the two spirit beasts still looked lively after biting and fighting for a long time.
Its huge body slapped out huge waves from time to time, making waves. Even under the attacks of the two spirit beasts, it still seemed to be at ease.
Even now, the giant crocodile leader's skin was not even torn.
On the other hand, the two spirit beasts sent over now had a few new wounds.
Therefore, Abbot Chiba decided to put more pressure on this giant crocodile.
"Demon Subduing!"
"Subdue the demon!"
With a loud shout, the Eight Legions had already attacked. After the Demon Subduing Array was formed, it gathered the power of eight people. At the same time, with the support of the array, its power was extremely powerful.
Two golden mantras slowly rose from the Eight Legions, then smashed at the giant crocodile in the middle of the river.
"Boom!"
With a violent sound, the mantra smashed into the forehead of the crocodile leader. Golden light exploded before soon disappearing from the world.
With the cooperation of the Eight Legions, the spirit beast also became fierce.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, it opened its bloody mouth and was about to bite the giant crocodile leader.
"Roar!"
After suffering a sudden blow, the giant crocodile leader roared in pain.
It widened its vertical pupils and glanced at the Eight Legions on the other side of the river, committing these people to memory.
Then, it shook its head and bit down hard on the spirit beast that was pouncing on it.
It knew these two spirit beasts. They were originally its kind and were reared in the lake together. However, after not seeing them for a short period of time, they had changed sides for some reason.
Previously, it had still held back, hoping that they would leave after being injured.
But now, looking at the people on the riverbank, it, who already had human intelligence, was smart enough to determine that they were behind it.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The sudden heavy blow from the giant crocodile made the two spirit beasts howl in pain.
One spirit beast's foot was bitten off, and the other spirit beast was slapped to the riverbank by the giant crocodile leader's tail. It rolled a few times before stopping.
"The Four Great Protectors!"
Looking at the suddenly ferocious giant crocodile leader, Abbot Chiba became nervous.
It was the first battle of a spirit beast that he had just subdued. If he returned in defeat, he would never be able to accept it.
"Divine Words of Xu Mi, Buddha's Light Purification!"
A loud Buddhist chant sounded, and the shadow of a Buddha appeared. Immediately after, a golden handprint the size of the head of a giant crocodile flew out and slapped towards the giant crocodile.
"Roar!"
The crocodile leader took the blow again, but this time it wasn't as relaxed as the last time.
The huge palm imprinted on its back with a bang. The river was driven away, and the soaring water column splashed dozens of meters high. The leader of the giant crocodiles, who had been attacked, was slapped down by the palm and pressed to the bottom of the river. It rolled a few times before surfacing again.
"Spirit Mountain Treasure, 10,000 Techniques Dhyana!"
Seeing the giant crocodile reveal its head, the Four Great Protectors attacked again. This time, the mighty Buddhist chants rolled over and entered the ears of the giant crocodile leader.
"ná mó ā mí tuó fó…"
"ná mó ā mí tuó fó…"
"ná mó ā mí tuó fó…"
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Sensing the pervasive Buddhist chants, the giant crocodile leader fell into madness.
At this moment, the giant crocodile felt countless people chanting inexplicable scriptures in its ears.
It rolled on the water, trying to drive away the inexplicable sound. Its huge body churned up monstrous waves, so big that even the people standing on the shore were splashed with river water.
"Hmph, evil creature!"
Abbot Chiba looked at the struggling giant crocodile leader and nodded in satisfaction.
The strength of the Four Great Protectors was not something the Eight Legions could compare to. When had they not successfully suppressed demons and ferocious beasts?
The four of them were the core of the Yellow Mountain Temple and the mainstay.
Looking at the Eight Legions, each of them had their own thoughts. How could they be as pure as the Four Great Protectors?
Although the Eight Legions were his disciples, they were only layman disciples and had never shaved their heads to become monks.
Their identities were complicated, and they each had their own desires, which corresponded to the Eight Legions in the ancient book.
The Buddhist scriptures said that the Eight Legions were monsters of the Divine Path. They fought endlessly and each revealed their desires, such that even the power of Buddha could not enlighten them.
They were just hired fighters.
After thinking for a moment, Abbot Chiba looked at the giant crocodile leader in the middle of the river again. At this moment, the giant crocodile rolled and unknowingly approached the shore.
"Oh no!"
Seeing this scene, Abbot Chiba's heart skipped a beat. Then, he exclaimed loudly and hurriedly warned everyone.
Unfortunately, it was too late. Taking advantage of the time between rolls, the giant crocodile leader had already approached the river. Then, its body paused, opened its bloody mouth, and suddenly pounced at the crowd, its body as fast as lightning.
The formation of the Eight Legions and the Four Great Protectors, who were unable to defend in time, was smashed into pieces. One of them happened to be in front of the giant crocodile leader and had his arm torn off, letting out a tragic howl.
"Ah, how dare you!"
Seeing the ferocious crocodile, Abbot Chiba finally couldn't help but rush out. He extended his palm and was about to slap it down.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The ground shook as a few huge figures appeared in front of the crocodile. The sunlight shone on them, reflecting dazzling metal light…
