Chapter 930: The Tomb Beast King Appears
The twenty-four tomb beast kings kept the tomb guardians occupied for a full half day.
When the last tomb beast king was also defeated, the sky seemed to brighten again.
Finally, a sliver of light pierced through the thick clouds.
The battle was extremely intense and difficult to win. The magic arrays on the eight demon ships had completely lost their power and could no longer provide any firepower; only the protective shields were still functioning.
Without exception, all the hall masters who went into battle sustained some injuries, but they were all minor wounds. Although these tomb beast kings were ferocious, as Wu Zhao said, they had no intelligence. How could they possibly contend with these cultivators based solely on instinct? "Let's continue."
The deputy tomb owner's voice rang out coldly.
Everyone's spirits lifted, and the eight demon ships set sail once more.
This time the journey went more smoothly. There were still many tomb beasts, and many more were still coming from all directions, but they posed no real threat.
The journey was peaceful for about three or four hours, but despite the peace, Gu Heng noticed that none of the hall masters, or the seven deputy tomb masters leading the way, showed any signs of relaxation.
They even became more cautious and vigilant.
Gu Heng frowned.
Does this mean the bigger one is yet to come?
This thought was fleeting, and Gu Heng didn't dwell on it. He figured if any trouble arose along the way, the hall masters would handle it, and if that didn't work, the deputy tomb master would help. It wouldn't be the ordinary members' turn. The peace lasted only five hours.
When seven golden lights suddenly appeared from the distant dark beast tide, the moment those seven golden lights pierced the darkness, everyone felt as if their minds were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand!
Everyone held their breath.
"what is that?"
Gu Heng squinted, trying hard to see the true form of the seven golden lights.
As he got closer, he realized that the seven golden lights were actually tomb beasts.
But they are different from all ordinary tomb beasts, even the tomb beast king!
First of all, it looks completely normal, not at all strange. Upon closer inspection, it resembles a lion or a tiger, and also has the majesty of a dragon and the shadow of a phoenix. Its whole body shines with golden light, like the blazing sun!
Gu Heng found it quite novel. After all, the tomb beasts he had encountered in the past few days were mostly covered in fleshy growths and had twisted limbs. Seeing too many of them would definitely be mentally polluting. But the tomb beast that appeared now was covered in gold, which actually gave it a...
Divinity?
Seven golden tomb beasts walked through the air, leaving golden ripples in the void with each step. As they drew closer, the demon ship began to sway.
"The protective shield is about to fail!"
The gravediggers responsible for piloting the demon ship lost their voices.
"what?!"
Wu Zhao was greatly alarmed.
The golden tomb beast exuded an intangible yet formidable power, which had already caused the demonic ship, capable of annihilating the tomb beast king, to begin to sway precariously!
The shield's light flickered violently, as if it were under some kind of invisible pressure.
"The Beast King has appeared!"
The voice of the deputy tomb master, who was in charge, boomed in everyone's ears through some kind of sound transmission method: "This is not an enemy you can deal with. All of you, retreat and do not make any rash moves."
The seven deputy tomb masters at the front stood in a row, surrounded by visible spatial fluctuations, forming an insurmountable barrier that firmly blocked the beast's might.
What follows is the inevitable final battle.
Upon receiving the order, the eight demon ships hurriedly flew backward, fearing that once the battle began, the aftershocks alone could annihilate all eight ships...
"That's the most powerful individual among the tomb beasts, the Beast King?"
"I never expected the Beast King to have such an attitude..."
"I can no longer see through the strength of that Beast King. I can only wait and see if the deputy tomb masters can handle them."
A commotion arose on the ship, and everyone revealed their panic.
The Tomb Beast King. These are beings that most tomb guardians are not qualified to see. They are only said to be the "eldest sons of the divine corpses." Each divine corpse can only give birth to one Beast King, and their strength is difficult to judge.
After all, once something is associated with gods, the individual power systems that all living beings have developed become less representative.
But it was all just hearsay.
Apart from powerful figures like the deputy tomb master, even hall masters might not have seen the Tomb Beast King, because seeing it would likely mean certain death!
Now that they have met the Tomb Beast King, they discover...
So tomb beasts can look this upright?
Originally, people viewed tomb beasts as extremely ugly and bizarre, monsters devoid of any intelligence.
Compared to the "beings" of all the heavens and myriad realms, the tomb beasts are out of place and are absolutely unqualified to be included in the list of "beings".
But the beast kings before them clearly did not fit any of the above definitions. They were neither ugly nor bizarre; in fact, they possessed a certain beauty, and...
It seems like it does possess some form of intelligence?
The Seven-Headed Tomb Beast King was scrutinizing his opponent, and the seven deputy tomb masters did the same. Both sides remained still, but the atmosphere became increasingly tense, and no one knew whether a fierce collision would break out in the next second.
But the change occurred first.
There are eight demon ships.
In an instant, another golden light appeared in the distance. It was the eighth Tomb Beast King, which resembled a hawk and stirred up a raging wind with the flapping of its wings!
The protective shields of the eight demon ships, which could withstand the protective shields of the Tomb Beast King, quietly shattered.
All the demon ships collapsed instantly!
Fortunately, the ship's hull managed to withstand the Tomb Beast King's casual attack, but the tomb guardians on board were left to fend for themselves... This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.
Before Gu Heng could even grab Gu Xitong's hand, he was spinning and falling downwards.
"I am stupid!!!"
Gu Heng watched himself plunge headfirst into the dark beast tide below and couldn't help but close his eyes.
That's it.
Whether I live or die, I'll just leave it to fate.
If he hadn't died from the fall.
Now it's his turn to have "good luck".
