บท 48: Fighting With The Spiritual Beast (1)

[The First Layer Of The Great Mount Kunlun Mountain, Inner Domain]

She should thank herself for practicing hard so that she could face such a powerful being. If other rookies were here, just by sensing the pressure from the Fire Cloud Fox and the Blue Ice White Tiger, the rookies would faint.

She didn't know how to communicate, and she also didn't know how to open her mouth in front of such a stranger, so she could only stand firmly as she stared at the two beasts' movements tightly.

Did the sect people send these beasts here for the task?

...….

[In the Divine Kunlun Sect's Main Hall]

"Elder Yi, what happened? Why do I seem to feel that something isn't right?" Elder Hao asked in doubt as he stared at the crystal screen tightly, trying to observe the rookies' movement, yet he didn't see anything suspicious.

The rookies were still struggling hard to climb the mountain, while some rookies were fighting with the war beasts inside the first layer. Everything seemed to be under the sect's control.

"What is it, Great Elder Hao?" Elder Li frowned.

Everyone else looked at Elder Hao in his white robe. Elder Hao was the Great Elder in the Divine Kunlun sect. He rarely spoke, but whenever he spoke, something unexpected always happened.

"Don't you see that some students were missing from the screen?" His words shocked everyone.

Everyone in the Main Hall hurried to look at the crystal screen, and then they found out the problem. It was indeed the same, as the Great Elder Hao said.

Normally, there are more than a thousand students each year who come to learn at the sect and have to pass all the trails, but this year, because several outstandingly talented people appeared, everyone in the sect paid close attention to the extraordinary child.

This is the reason that these people were quick to find out about the missing students. Huang Ying Yue, Huang Wan Yan, Huang Bai Xing, and Tan Zi Mo were missing. No matter how hard the elders in the hall tried to control the crystal screen, there was no trace of them.

"This is the first time that something like this has happened; even so, what are those senior disciples doing? Why don't they inform us about this serious matter? What if something bad happens to their juniors?" Elder Tang stood up from his seat as he waved his sleeves and put his hands behind his back.

"If something happened to the good seedlings, we couldn't afford the consequences in front of 'them'." Elder Lou spoke solemnly as his face turned serious.

Thinking about 'them', every elder suddenly felt cold behind their backs as their faces turned white. Everyone was speechless.

"So what do we do? May you offer any suggestions, the Great Elder Hao?" Elder Li asked seriously. He was the one responsible for bringing the rookies from the Outer Domain here, and some of these rookies were extraordinarily special. Two of them were even born with the Supreme Spiritual Roots.

"I'll inform the sect leader immediately and wait for his response. The task will continue; don't let the other children panic. Wait until you get my words; don't act recklessly." The Great Elder Hao sat on the chair, thought for a moment, then said.

"Elder Lou, you go with Elder Li to check on those children and try to get into contact with those disciples who are responsible for protecting those youngsters." The Great Elder Hao looked at Elder Li and Elder Lou.

"As for the remaining Elders, wait here and observe the movement of the crystal screen. If there was any movement, inform me later through the communicating crystal device."

....

Huang Ying Yue wanted to communicate with the two beasts, but she didn't know how to say it. Should she wave her hand and say good afternoon, Senior Beast?

Xiao Yun, inside the space, twitched his lips fiercely. What time is this? Why does the master still have the mood to joke? Saying hi to those beasts? Don't talk about saying hi; just waving at the beast is considered foolish since the beasts despised human beings so much.

The Fire Cloud Fox didn't say anything and immediately spit out a red flame from its mouth to the place where the two figures stood.

Huang Ying Yue hugged Huang Wan Yan, then dodged the attack that came from the Fire Cloud Fox. The flame contained a furious and angry spirit inside, as if the owner was in a bad mood because of something.

"Bang!" The place where she dodged suddenly turned black; a black hole appeared on the land. The surrounding trees were scorching black.

She put Huang Wan Yan in a safe place, turned to look at the place where she stood, and frowned.

Her hands moved, creating the spiritual power in a circle around her hands.

The Fire Cloud Fox jumped in front of her; a sharp claw with a red flame hit her chest barely.

"Puff!" Huang Ying Yue put two hands in front of herself, but still, the overpowering power between the two was far behind. Her body flew backward and hit the tree fiercely.

Her face turned pale, and blood flowed out of her mouth. Because she lacked combat experience and the strength of the two opponents was too far different, she could barely fight back, yet she refused to fall.

She struggled to stand up as she summoned the spiritual power again. This time, she used all of her strength to create the power to attack.
