Chapter 3926: Marginal Victory

With a flash of light, Wang Qingshan and the four others appeared.

"A mutated Chaos Beast!"

Wang Qingshan frowned. This five-colored Chaos Beast was a True Immortal at the Grand Completion stage, and being a mutated Chaos Beast that wielded the power of laws, it would not be easy to deal with.

Wang Qingshan slashed his right hand towards the void, and a sharp green sword light swept forth, shattering the incoming red flames amidst a continuous roar.

The five-colored Chaos Beast charged down from the mountain at high speed. With every step, the entire peak trembled slightly, and a giant footprint appeared on the ground.

Wang Qingxiao transformed back into a white Flood Dragon, and Wang Qingling merged with him.

The white Flood Dragon opened its enormous maw and spewed out a thick beam of white light directly towards the five-colored Chaos Beast.

The five-colored Chaos Beast punched out, easily shattering the white light, and a giant red fist surged directly towards them.

Wherever the giant red fist passed, the ground ignited, and flames soared skyward.

Wang Yidao swung his blade, and a massive golden blade light swept out, shattering the giant red fist. Flames scattered, landing on the ground and buildings, causing the fires to spread rapidly.

The five-colored Chaos Beast was incredibly fast. With its powerful physical body, ordinary True Immortal cultivators simply couldn't withstand a single punch from it.

A series of loud whooshing sounds echoed as numerous green flying swords shot forth, striking the five-colored Chaos Beast one after another, emitting dull clanging sounds.

Wang Qingshan and Wang Yingjie each lightly tapped their right index fingers towards the void, and a black light shot out from each of them, accurately striking the five-colored Chaos Beast.

The five-colored Chaos Beast let out an extremely painful shriek and came to a halt.

"You seek death!"

The five-colored Chaos Beast spoke human words as a large expanse of red flames surged from its body. A red light circle swept out, and wherever it passed, intense flames rolled and blazed into the sky.

Although Wang Qingxiao had cultivated to become a true spirit, purely in terms of physical body and strength, he was inferior to the mutated Chaos Beast at the True Immortal Grand Completion stage. However, it wouldn't be easy for the mutated Chaos Beast to kill him either.

A deafening dragon roar sounded as the white Flood Dragon spewed out a white sound wave directly towards the five-colored Chaos Beast.

The white sound wave touched the red flames and instantly dissipated.

A gigantic white dragon claw appeared out of thin air, striking the five-colored Chaos Beast, but only leaving a few shallow claw marks that were barely noticeable without close inspection.

A thick, long white dragon tail came sweeping towards it, and the five-colored Chaos Beast punched out, striking the white dragon tail.

With a loud thud, the five-colored Chaos Beast's body sank, its feet sinking into the ground. Its hands grabbed the white Flood Dragon's tail, and with a sudden swing, the white Flood Dragon was violently slammed onto the ground.

A massive rumbling sound echoed, the ground tore open, and dust billowed.

A surge of red flames erupted from its body, traveling along its hands directly towards the white Flood Dragon.

Roaring flames engulfed the white Flood Dragon, and a puff of white smoke rose. Meanwhile, it held the dragon's tail and swung wildly, repeatedly slamming the white Flood Dragon's massive body into the ground, causing dust to billow.

Two more black lights struck the mutated Chaos Beast, causing its features to contort as if someone were hacking at its soul with a knife. Fortunately, its soul was strong enough that this attack was not enough to severely injure it, but after a few more hits, it would be hard to say.

A ball of five-colored spiritual light lit up above its head, and a gigantic five-colored brick appeared, slamming down towards it.

The mutated Chaos Beast had to release its right hand. Its left fist erupted with a surge of red flames, striking the five-colored giant brick.

With a muffled thud, the five-colored giant brick shattered into pieces, turning into a pile of scrap metal.

A single low-grade immortal artifact was as fragile as paper in front of the mutated Chaos Beast.

Two more black lights shot forth, accurately striking the mutated Chaos Beast. Its body trembled, and it released the white Flood Dragon, charging directly towards Wang Qingshan and Wang Yingjie.

Wang Yidao quickly summoned and donned a set of Chaos Armor. This was given to him by Wang Qingling, as his original set was no longer usable.

Wang Qingshan dared not be careless. He quickly summoned and donned a set of Chaos Armor, then, holding the Azure Lotus Sword, he slashed towards the mutated Chaos Beast.

This time, they had brought some Chaos Armor with them for emergencies.

With a clang, the Azure Lotus Sword struck the mutated Chaos Beast, leaving a sword mark so faint it was almost invisible. The Chaos Beast then punched Wang Qingshan in the chest, sending him flying backward.

Wang Yingjie, Wang Yidao, and Wang Qingshan, all wearing Chaos Armor, engaged the mutated Chaos Beast in close combat, while Wang Qingling and Wang Qingxiao merged to attack the beast.

A series of rumbling explosions sounded. They were no match for the mutated Chaos Beast, yet it wasn't easy for the beast to kill them either. Wang Qingshan and Wang Yingjie occasionally used the Soul Extinguishing Finger to attack the mutated Chaos Beast.

Less than half an hour later, the mutated Chaos Beast punched Wang Yingjie, sending him flying backward. His body engulfed in red flames, he crashed into and destroyed a green pavilion.

Wang Yingjie stood up as the red flames on his body slowly dissipated. Even though he had cultivated into a true spirit, his physical body still had a significant gap compared to the mutated Chaos Beast at the True Immortal Grand Completion stage. It was only because he was wearing Chaos Armor that he wasn't severely injured.

The Chaos Beast was not having an easy time either. After taking over a dozen Soul Extinguishing Fingers, its soul was severely damaged, and its reactions became increasingly slow. There were multiple bloody gashes on its body, and blood flowed incessantly.

A flash of purple light, and a glowing purple orb appeared above the mutated Chaos Beast's head.

Wang Qingshan performed a hand seal, and the purple orb burst open, transforming into a massive cloud of purple light that enveloped a large area.

This Myriad Poison Pearl was also a single-use treasure, comparable to the full-force strike of an early Golden Immortal poison cultivator. While its power was certainly not as strong as the Seven-Star Soul Extinguishing Pearl, it could still cause considerable damage to the mutated Chaos Beast.

When the purple light touched the ground, signs of corrosion appeared, and a puff of white smoke rose.

Soon after, the purple light dissipated, revealing the mutated Chaos Beast. Green smoke rose from its body, which showed clear signs of corrosion and was bleeding profusely. The flowing blood was purple.

Sensing trouble, it ran towards the mountain peak, seemingly attempting to escape.

A deafening dragon roar sounded as a thick, long white dragon tail descended from the sky, violently striking the mutated Chaos Beast. The beast fell to the ground, with most of its body sinking into the earth.

Before it could stand up, two black lights shot forth, accurately striking its body.

"Soul... soul attack."

The mutated Chaos Beast said haltingly as it slowly stood up and walked towards the mountain peak, its speed significantly slower than before.

Seizing this opportune moment, Wang Qingshan and the four others intensified their attacks. With massive rumbling sounds, various spiritual lights engulfed the mutated Chaos Beast.

Wang Qingshan performed a sword art, and the nine Azure Glaze Swords merged into one, transforming into a towering giant sword shimmering with green light. It struck the mutated Chaos Beast's head, severing it. Blood gushed out as the mutated Chaos Beast's body went limp and fell to the ground.

Wang Qingshan let out a long sigh of relief. They then put away their Chaos Armor.

Wang Qingxiao was covered in blood, his face pale and his spirits low. Wang Qingshan and the other four were also injured. The mutated Chaos Beast's physical body was simply too strong; even with Chaos Armor, they had still sustained injuries, though fortunately, they were not severe.

Wang Qingshan put away the mutated Chaos Beast's corpse. The five of them then went to a green manor on the mountain peak. The manor was largely collapsed, and some buildings were covered in green vines. They found no immortal herbs or fruits, nor even a single immortal tree.

Wang Yingjie and the four others stood inside a mostly collapsed green palace. On the stone walls were carvings of mountains, rivers, and lakes, which looked unremarkable.

Wang Qingshan raised his right hand, and a green sword light swept out, striking the stone wall. A muffled thud echoed, and the stone wall rippled, revealing a pale golden light screen.

The surface of the golden light screen was covered with countless profound runes, forming the pattern of a nine-headed giant python.

"The Nine Python Soul Lock Restriction! It can only be broken with a divine sense attack."

Wang Qingshan recognized this restriction, and a green light shot out from between his eyebrows, striking the stone wall.

Wang Yingjie and the other four all used their divine sense to attack the restriction. The body of the nine-headed giant python twisted, and soon after, the nine-headed giant python's body shattered, and the golden light screen also shattered.

The stone wall lit up with dazzling golden light, revealing a golden stone door.

Wang Yingjie punched out, and the stone door shattered into pieces. A stone chamber several hundred feet in size appeared before them. In the bottom left corner of the chamber was a green jade shelf holding dozens of jade slips. In the bottom right corner was another jade shelf, on which rested a golden, shimmering giant axe—a mid-grade immortal artifact.
