Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2420: Chapter 2424: It’s a Success

Roar!

Within the crystal sphere space, flames danced wildly.

Under the Wuying Sword Path, the space shuddered violently, and the blazing flames boiled fiercely amid the clash of the two attacks.

Roar!

A beastly roar mixed with pain echoed from the flames.

Jiang Chen’s face darkened slightly. From the roar, it was apparent that the Flamecloud Leopard was injured, though the injury didn’t seem severe.

”Looks like I’ll have to show my cards today. Luckily, here...”

Jiang Chen muttered to himself.

Suddenly, before he finished speaking, a spark flashed in Jiang Chen’s mind, and he smiled slightly, realizing he had forgotten something.

Whoosh!

A gust of gale wind swept through, and an enormous fierce leopard, burning with searing flames all over its body, sprang out of the towering fire.

At this moment, droplets of scorching magma-like liquid were dripping from the Flamecloud Leopard’s abdomen. Evidently, this was the wound the Wuying Sword Path had inflicted on it just now.

Staring at the approaching Jiang Chen, the Flamecloud Leopard’s eyes flashed with viciousness, glaring fiercely at Jiang Chen, as the flames engulfing its whole body grew ever more intense, causing the temperature of the entire crystal sphere space to rise rapidly, twisting the surrounding space.

”Hmph! If you had a physical body, it might indeed be quite troublesome, but unfortunately, you’re only a soul!”

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, withdrawing the Great Dao Divine Light, and looked mockingly at the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard in front of him.

Roar!

A thunderous roar erupted, the Flamecloud Leopard seemingly aware of Jiang Chen’s disdain, its eyes blazing with fierce flames, as it leaped ferociously.

Clatter!

A clear, crisp sound rang out as Jiang Chen flicked his wrist, and a chain flashing with nine-colored brilliance flew out from his brow.

Divine Lock Chain!

Ever since entering this Void Nether Realm, the Divine Lock Chain had been continuously refined as Jiang Chen’s power grew, rarely showing itself. Now, to deal with the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard, Jiang Chen recalled this weapon specifically designed for souls.

Through Jiang Chen’s refinement, the Divine Lock Chain was no longer its original black color. The entire chain radiated a nine-colored brilliance, with an ineffable glow subtlety integrating the nine colors perfectly together.

Infused with the power of ten Great Daos, the Divine Lock Chain was utterly transformed. Its appearance instantly terrified the Flamecloud Leopard’s Beast Soul into pausing its movement.

From the Divine Lock Chain, the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard sensed an oppression from deep within its soul, as if it had encountered a natural enemy!

Swoosh!

A mystical light flashed, the Divine Lock Chain suddenly extended, piercing through space, and instantly appeared around the Flamecloud Leopard, binding it tightly.

Roar!

Clatter!

In the eyes of the Flamecloud Leopard’s Beast Soul flashed a look of panic as it struggled violently. The Divine Lock Chain emitted clear, crisp sounds, expanding and contracting with the Leopard’s struggles.

”As expected of the Beast Soul of a Seventh-ranked Magical Beast, even the long-refined Divine Lock Chain can’t fully suppress it, but let’s see if you can handle this!”

Jiang Chen’s expression turned serious, and he shouted lowly, ”Suppress it for me!”

Whoosh!

A bloody radiance shot out from Jiang Chen’s brow, the blood light filled the entire space, slowly forming a large character ’Suppress’ in the air!

Whoosh!

The character, accompanied by fierce gale winds, struck the Flamecloud Leopard’s forehead hard, instantly transforming into boundless Blood Fiend Force, pinning the Flamecloud Leopard firmly below.

Howl!

The Flamecloud Leopard’s eyes revealed a look of terror, opening its mouth to emit a low wail, a trace of despair showing in its gaze.

Noticing the Flamecloud Leopard’s expression, Jiang Chen spoke softly, ”Rest assured, now that you follow me, you will not be tarnished. From now on, you are the second refinement within my Combat Skills Heavenly Refining Furnace, Flamecloud Devouring Body!”

Roar!

Jiang Chen exploded with scorching flames all over his body, causing the temperature within the entire crystal sphere to climb once more, twisting the space completely.

The flames enveloped the Flamecloud Leopard, forming a massive furnace, as fierce flames of the Flame Path force surged from the furnace’s bottom, beginning to refine this Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard.

Under the dual suppression of the Divine Lock Chain and Blood Fiend Force, the Flamecloud Leopard had no strength left to resist, reluctantly closing its eyes, subjected to the burning of the flames!

Whoosh!

Only at this moment did Jiang Chen truly relax.

This battle seemed simple, yet Jiang Chen used two trump cards, both having extraordinary effect on souls, to subdue the beast soul of the Flamecloud Leopard.

”No wonder that Elder Cen said those words after observing my performance in the Trial Grounds. Without these two major trump cards, I might indeed have had to reach the Virtual Refinement Realm to subdue the Beast Soul of this Flamecloud Leopard. A Seventh-ranked Magical Beast, even reduced to just a Beast Soul, is still so troublesome!”

Jiang Chen mumbled quietly, raising his head to glance at the crystal space.

Let’s use this to completely refine the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard!

With a decision made in his heart, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged, focusing entirely on refining the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard.

Outside the crystal space.

Yan Hu and Wu Chengfeng watched quietly as the crystal sphere was engulfed in flames.

”Do you think anything has happened to Jiang Chen? Why hasn’t he come out for so long?”

A quarter of an hour later, Wu Chengfeng furrowed his brows and spoke gently.

If it were merely a battle, enough time had passed for a decision. The Flamecloud Leopard was just a soul, and in battle, it would surely use all its strength. With a full-force fight, a quarter of an hour should have sufficed.

”It won’t happen!”

Yan Hu responded firmly, though there was a faint trace of worry apparent in his eyes.

Swoosh!

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside the two.

”Elder Cen.”

Both Wu Chengfeng and Yan Hu glanced at the newcomer, cupping their fists in salute.

”The presence of the Flamecloud Leopard is getting weaker and weaker. Who would have thought Jiang Chen had such ability, to actually suppress the Beast Soul of the Flamecloud Leopard!”

Elder Cen gazed in surprise at the flaming crystal globe, his words revealing a sense of astonishment.

”What? Jiang Chen succeeded?”

Wu Zhengfeng’s expression shook, looking at Elder Cen in disbelief.

This was the Beast Soul of the Seventh-ranked Magical Beast Flamecloud Leopard! If Jiang Chen could suppress it, did it not mean he possessed the strength to battle against mid-stage Virtual Refinement Realm cultivators?

This guy... hides so deeply!

Wu Zhengfeng glanced at the crystal sphere, inwardly muttering to himself.

Yan Hu’s eyes brightened, a smile curling at the corner of his mouth. Hearing of Jiang Chen’s formidable power, he felt several times more pleased than if he were stronger himself.

”This lad has some potential; that drunkard accepted a great disciple!”

Elder Cen’s eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.

Back then, he had some friendship with Hu Yiqiu and had once benefitted from Hu Yiqiu’s favor. A hundred years ago, after Hu Yiqiu left the academy in a fit of anger, he took the initiative to apply to the Pavilion of Spiritual Objects. At that time, he was just a manager there; now, he has become the presiding elder.

He was very glad that Hu Yiqiu had such a prodigiously talented disciple.
