Chapter 178: What About Your Dignity
Chapter 178: What About Your Dignity
"I don't think much of it." Su Zhan said calmly. Immediately, his Celestial Radiance Divine Body was activated.
Buzz-!
Streams of divine light emerged!
Above Su Zhan, stars appeared one by one, forming a starry sea. On the left side of the starry sea was a golden sun radiating scorching light. On the right side was a white, clear moon emitting chilly moonlight.
In the instant the divine body was activated, a terrifying aura erupted from within Su Zhan!
Thirty-six golden dragon veins emerged on his body, and Su Zhan swung his sword.
Celestial Dragon Sword Technique! Interweaving sword qi transformed into a flying celestial dragon!
"What kind of divine body is this!"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch, standing on the cloud, was shocked by Su Zhan's divine body phenomenon.
He had seen divine bodies before. But what in the world was this bizarre combination of starry patterns, sun, and moon? And the power of this unique divine body it's incredibly strong!
And this celestial dragon sword qi! It's not something that can be unleashed by anyone beneath the level of a Saint!
His gaze fell upon the celestial dragon, sensing the terrifying power contained within every strand of sword qi. The pupils of the Saint Patriarch contracted. His internal Saint Qi was pushed to the extreme.
The white tiger roared!
Boom!
The celestial dragon collided with the white seal.
It couldn't even hold for a second. The white tiger illusion above the white seal dissipated into nothingness!
The white seal emitted a mournful cry, cracks appearing on its surface. Exceedingly pure white Saint Qi surged out from those cracks.
In the next moment, the white seal was sent flying, hitting the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch on the cloud with perfect accuracy!
The Patriarch extended a hand, and the white seal rapidly shrank, transforming into an ordinary seal, which he caught in his hand.
"Bang!" The moment he caught the seal, the power of the celestial dragon's sword intent transferred to his body through the white seal.
"Spurt!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood as he was hit by the impact of this terrifying force, falling directly from the cloud. His body crashed onto the already devastated Little Cloud Mountain below, and he coughed up more blood.
The white seal, which had developed numerous cracks in his hand, returned to his sea of consciousness. The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch finally eased his anxiety slightly.
If he had directly stored the seal in his sea of consciousness earlier, he was afraid that the force would have shattered it, leading to his death!
However, if he had dodged the attack, his cherished tool would have been shattered, and his injuries would have been even worse than they are now. Therefore, he took the risk of being struck by the celestial dragon sword qi to retrieve the seal.
But what he didn't anticipate was that the force was even stronger than he imagined. Just a single sword had severely injured him!
"Indeed, a Saint is more formidable than I expected! Unable to even die with a single sword!"
From above, Su Zhan's voice echoed.
"Spurt!"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch spat out another mouthful of blood.
A dignified Saint couldn't be killed by a Fourth Transformation of a Fish-Dragon, and that was supposed to be impressive?
Moreover, if it weren't for the White Tiger Saint Seal blocking much of the sword qi, that strike might have truly killed him! But now, the White Tiger Saint Seal was damaged and couldn't be used again.
He was severely injured, and his strength couldn't be fully exerted.
Furthermore, even in his prime, he couldn't withstand a single strike from Su Zhan's sword. So, what difference did it make now between facing Su Zhan and awaiting death?
After contemplating these factors, the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch quickly begged for mercy, "Su Zhan, spare me, young friend Su! I concede, I concede!"
"You're conceding?"
Su Zhan, who was about to deliver another strike, paused. With a face of astonishment, he said, "But what about your dignity?"
"I"
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch felt overwhelming sense of shame in his heart, but in order to save his life, he had no choice but to swallow his pride.
"My dignity means nothing in front of Young Friend Su! I offended you just now! You were right when you said that those elders deserved to die, and you asked me to restrain my disciples from causing trouble with the Sole Sword Sect. I think you're absolutely right! I'll do it immediately, I promise!"
"But, wouldn't it be more convenient to just kill you?" Su Zhan's gaze flickered as he spoke.
The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch suddenly felt a shiver down his spine, and he exclaimed desperately, "No! No! I swear, I swear I will never offend anyone related to the Sole Sword Sect or Young Friend Su! By the way, I'm willing to offer our Beast-taming Mountain's most precious item to Young Master Su!"
As he spoke, he took off the bracelet on his left hand. The bracelet emitted a dazzling light, and several very peculiar monster beasts and demonic birds flew out of it. They all looked perplexed, but upon seeing the pitiable state of the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch, they huddled to the side, trembling in fear and not daring to move.
"Young Friend Su, this is our Beast-taming Mountain's precious treasure, a top-grade king-tier spirit beast bracelet! It has an incredibly vast interior space and provides significant benefits to monster beasts, allowing them to enhance their strength more rapidly. Furthermore, placing monster beasts inside this spirit beast bracelet can strengthen the power of taming runes, ensuring that your spirit beast pets won't break through the taming runes and betray their master."
Top-grade king-tier? Su Zhan's eyes brightened slightly.
This was the most powerful item below the level of Saints' artifacts. And Saints' artifacts were said to be rare even among many Saints themselves. Just like the current Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch, he didn't possess an artifact.
This top-grade king-tier spirit beast bracelet was indeed a rare treasure!
Now that he had activated the Beast-taming Halo, this spirit beast bracelet would definitely come in handy in the future.
With these thoughts in mind, Su Zhan accepted the spirit beast bracelet, examined it briefly, and then put it away.
Afterwards, he looked at the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch and said, "I came here intending to have a proper conversation with you, but you folks kept trying to kill me for no reason. Otherwise, I had no intention of taking action."
"Yes, yes, Young Friend Su is right. We were completely wrong! I beg for your forgiveness this once! I will definitely turn over a new leaf and start afresh!" The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch quickly nodded.
"Since you recognize your mistakes and swear to reform, I won't kill you. However, about that elder from the Beast-taming Mountain who seems to be hell-bent on wiping out my entire family?" Su Zhan's gaze turned toward Feng Xu.
Feng Xu's body trembled, and he nearly plummeted from the sky.
"You scoundrel! Hurry up and apologize to Young Master Su!" the Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch roared.
Despite his severe injuries, he forcibly grabbed Feng Xu and brought him before Su Zhan.
"Among all of the Beast-taming Mountain's people, your intention to kill me is the strongest. It seems like you wish to dismember me a thousand times over. Do you hold a grudge against me?" Su Zhan's gaze settled on Feng Xu, his mind filled with confusion.
"I, I"
Feng Xu was utterly terrified, his body trembling, and he stuttered unable to speak coherently.
"Reporting to Young Master Su, he is the uncle of Feng Yue! Those three elders from the Void Spirit Lake, who attacked you, were also instructed by him!" Elder Yun hurriedly approached, kneeling down before Su Zhan.
Su Zhan's expression turned cold. "I see. So, since you harbor such hatred for me, why don't you make your move now that I'm standing right in front of you?"
"No! No, no, no! I dare not, plea"
Feng Xu's terrified voice abruptly ceased. A red line appeared on his neck, and after a brief moment, a large amount of blood gushed out. He collapsed, clutching his neck, his face filled with remorse and fear as he died.
With a single sword strike, Su Zhan killed Feng Xu and stated, "Since this matter has been clarified, I'll be on my way. I hope you remember the words you've spoken."
"I promise, I promise. If I violate them, let me be struck down by heavenly thunder!" The Beast-taming Mountain Patriarch hurriedly swore an oath. Seeing Su Zhan turning to leave, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, in the next moment, when Su Zhan turned back around, his heart immediately filled with terror and unease.
Very carefully and respectfully, he asked, "Young Friend Su, is there anything else?"
Su Zhan said, "There's nothing else. I just need to take a trip far away and was thinking of borrowing your Beast-taming Mountain's guardian beast for a ride. I hope you don't mind."
