189: Chapter 5: The Potential of a Top Predator!

"Roar!!"

The roars of the beasts all around were drawing closer and closer!

"Watch out!"

Right then, an exclamation suddenly burst from Su Muxue's lips!

A dark shadow suddenly lunged out from the dense forest, striking directly at Lin Yuan; it was none other than a Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat!

However, judging by its aura, this Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat only had the strength of a Late Stage Beast King Level at most!

"A Late Stage Beast King Level dares to come seeking death?"

A ferocious glint flashed in Lin Yuan's eyes as dazzling lightning quickly coiled around his giant claws!

Immediately after, Lin Yuan's azure thunder claws violently slashed toward the Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat's direction!

"Slash!!"

Lin Yuan's claw was so fast that it even left a trail of thunder in mid-air!

In just an instant, Lin Yuan's sharp claws pierced through the Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat's chest!

An instant kill!

Before the Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat could even react, it had already become a corpse!

Watching this scene, a look of shock couldn't help but flash in the eyes of Wang Jinze and Su Muxue.

Although they had sensed that Lin Yuan had become stronger, they clearly hadn't expected him to be powerful to this extent!

"Let's go."

Lin Yuan casually plucked the monster crystal core from the Phantom Shadow Spirit Cat's corpse and spoke with overflowing killing intent: "Let me lead you... and break through the encirclement."

Lin Yuan's tone was incredibly calm, yet it carried an unquestionable confidence.

Su Muxue and Wang Jinze naturally didn't doubt him and immediately followed behind Lin Yuan.

To be honest, Lin Yuan didn't actually know which direction was the most suitable for a breakthrough.

However, his thinking was simple.

As long as he kept killing his way forward, he would eventually carve out a path of blood!

After selecting a direction, Lin Yuan immediately prepared to lead the two of them in a breakthrough!

Just then, a giant tiger covered in burning flames suddenly pounced out from the forest and appeared before them!

Su Muxue was startled and immediately prepared to launch an attack!

Fortunately, before she could act, Lin Yuan called out to stop her in time!

"Wait!"

Although Su Muxue hadn't reacted yet, she still subconsciously listened to Lin Yuan's words.

And at that moment, the giant tiger covered in burning crimson flames suddenly spoke.

"It really is you guys! Haha, I knew I didn't mishear your voices!"

Upon hearing this familiar voice, Su Muxue immediately knew the other party's identity!

If she remembered correctly, the giant tiger covered in flames before them was precisely Wang Linhu's beast soul, the Crimson Flame Violent Tiger!

Although they were currently surrounded by the beast tide, being able to encounter a companion was still a happy occasion!

At this moment, Wang Jinze suddenly asked, "Brother Linhu, why are you alone? Where are the others?"

"And me!"

As soon as Wang Jinze asked that, another familiar voice quickly rang out by their ears!

Lin Yuan looked up and saw a colorful demon butterfly circling above Wang Linhu, emitting a brilliant, glaze-like glow!

The demon butterfly before them was Song Lan's beast soul, the Seven-Colored Glazed Butterfly!

"That's great, so Song Lan was with you!"

Upon seeing Song Lan's beast soul, a look of pleasant surprise surfaced in Wang Jinze's eyes.

Then, Wang Linhu's voice rang out again.

"Alright, the situation is urgent, so let's not talk much for now. Song Lan and I are being chased by a Lord-level Monster!"

Wang Linhu's tone was full of anxiety: "It's a good thing we found you. If the five of us combine our strength, we might barely have the power to fight!"

"A Lord-level Monster?"

Wang Jinze raised an eyebrow, his expression looking somewhat disdainful.

To be honest, he didn't even care about Lord-level Monsters anymore.

After all, since the black mist spread, as many as three Lord-level Monsters had already died at their hands.

Just then, Wang Linhu looked at Wang Jinze in confusion and asked, "Why haven't you performed a Fusion with your beast soul yet?"

With a great enemy present, Wang Jinze still hadn't chosen to fuse with his beast soul, which was truly unexpected to him.

Speaking of which, even now, he still didn't know what Wang Jinze's beast soul actually was.

However, what was even more unexpected to Wang Linhu was that Wang Jinze spoke with a beaming smile: "Fusion? I don't think there's any need for that."

Just as Wang Jinze finished speaking, a sharp screech suddenly rang out beside everyone's ears!

"Skree!!"

Along with this screech, an incredibly massive Two-Headed Pterosaur immediately appeared before them!

The Two-Headed Pterosaur was green all over, and two fat tumors grew on its two heads, looking extremely disgusting!

"Watch out!"

After the green Two-Headed Pterosaur appeared, Wang Linhu's expression changed, and he immediately called out a warning.

Although he had warned them at the first opportunity, he was ultimately a step too late.

The green pterosaur before them immediately flapped its wings violently, whipping up bursts of hurricanes that swept toward their direction!

Song Lan, who was already in mid-air, was the first to suffer, being instantly knocked to the ground by the violent hurricane!

Wang Linhu wasn't having it easy either; the violent hurricane was like a blade, instantly cutting bloody gashes into his body!

But on the other side, Su Muxue and Wang Jinze chose to hide behind Lin Yuan in unison!

Spending days together had long ago allowed them to form a unique tacit understanding!

So, without Lin Yuan even needing to say a word, the two of them already knew what to do.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!—"

As the gale swept over Lin Yuan's body, it actually produced sounds like the clashing of metal!

By the time the hurricane dissipated, only dozens of shallow scratches had appeared on Lin Yuan's scales!

Witnessing this scene, both Wang Linhu and Song Lan couldn't help but widen their eyes!

They clearly hadn't expected that Lin Yuan could actually tank a Lord-level Monster's attack head-on!

Once the hurricane subsided, Lin Yuan's voice calmly rang out.

"If you're finished, then it should be my turn, right?"

"Skree!!"

The Two-Headed Pterosaur let out another sharp, long screech!

It keenly sensed that the Black Giant Beast before it was an existence that could threaten it!

At that moment, Lin Yuan didn't hesitate at all and directly opened his giant maw!

In the next second, a faint blue light radiated from his dorsal fins!

Atomic Nucleus Energy rapidly gathered within the atomic reactor inside Lin Yuan's body!

Finally, an Atomic Breath emitting a destructive aura formed within Lin Yuan's maw and was violently unleashed toward the Two-Headed Pterosaur!

"Boom!!"

The Atomic Breath instantly shot toward one of the Two-Headed Pterosaur's heads!

But at the critical moment, the Two-Headed Pterosaur erupted with all its speed, forcibly adjusting its position!

Even so, Lin Yuan's Atomic Breath still pierced through one of its dragon wings!

After one of its wings was shattered, the Two-Headed Pterosaur's body quickly lost its balance, and it looked like it was about to crash to the ground!

However, the Two-Headed Pterosaur was a Lord-level Monster after all, and it quickly regained its balance!

But the power of the Atomic Breath had already caused the Two-Headed Pterosaur to feel a deep sense of terror!

It didn't dare to oppose Lin Yuan any longer, violently flapping its remaining wing and turning around to flee!

But just then, a dark shadow suddenly appeared in front of the Two-Headed Pterosaur!

Upon sensing the other party's aura, a look of shock couldn't help but flash in the Two-Headed Pterosaur's eyes.

Wasn't this the newborn life form that the Nightmare Dragon Crocodile had ordered them to find no matter what?

Although the Two-Headed Pterosaur had never seen the Little Black Dragon, it was incredibly familiar with its aura!

This was because the Nightmare Dragon Crocodile had already collected all the liquid left on the ground after the Little Black Dragon broke out of its core in the underground karst cave, allowing all the monsters under its command to sense the residual aura on the liquid.

As long as they found one with the same aura, that would be the newborn life form the Nightmare Dragon Crocodile was searching for!

But the Two-Headed Pterosaur never expected that the other party's size would be so tiny!

Just as this thought surfaced in the Two-Headed Pterosaur's mind,

the Little Black Dragon before it directly opened its mouth!

Immediately after, a cluster of ink-black Black Dragon Flame suddenly erupted from its mouth!

"Sizzle!!"

In just an instant, the Two-Headed Pterosaur's remaining half-wing was instantly turned to ash under the burning of the Black Dragon Flame!

"Skree!!"

A shrill wail of agony suddenly rang out from the Two-Headed Pterosaur's mouth!

After losing both dragon wings in succession, it finally couldn't suppress its downward plunge!

But just then, the Little Black Dragon in front of it instantly turned into an afterimage, lunging before it at extreme speed and forcibly biting its neck in half!

Crimson blood immediately gushed out from the wound on its neck!

But the Little Black Dragon didn't stop, instead continuing to frantically tear at the opponent!

Only at a time like this could they realize that the Little Black Dragon before them was far from being as harmless as it usually appeared.

On the contrary, even though this Black Young Dragon hadn't fully grown up yet, it displayed the potential of a Top Predator!!

And at this moment, only shock and disbelief remained in the eyes of Wang Linhu and Song Lan.

Everything that had just happened, whether it was Lin Yuan's strength or this mysterious Black Young Dragon, had completely exceeded their expectations, making them feel an unprecedented shock!
