Chapter 3987: Hunting the Chaos Beast

On a low hill on the outskirts of the Hulan Mountain Range, Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, and Wang Tunian stood atop a dirt mound. Wang Tunian's eyes glowed with dazzling yellow light as he gazed into the distance. Since leaving Haoyang City, they had encountered many True Immortal-stage chaos beasts, none of which were a match for them.

"A million li to the southwest, there are hundreds of chaos beasts, including five five-colored ones. It should be a small tribe," Wang Tunian said, pointing southwest. Wang Changsheng nodded, and the three of them sped off in that direction.

Before long, they arrived at a vast peach blossom forest, where the ground was covered in petals and beast roars echoed intermittently in the distance. Wang Ruyan took out her Immortal Suppressing Flute and began to play. Wang Changsheng had already upgraded the Immortal Suppressing Flute to a mid-grade immortal artifact, significantly increasing its power. A cheerful flute melody resonated through the peach blossom forest, carrying far and wide.

In less than three breaths, dozens of colorless chaos beasts, varying in form, charged towards them. They weren't drawn by the flute music, but rather couldn't bear its effect. Wang Ruyan remained unperturbed, concentrating on her playing. As soon as the colorless chaos beasts stepped into the peach blossom forest, a blue sound wave swept out. Wherever it passed, peach trees disintegrated into countless splinters, and as the wave swept over the beasts, they immediately collapsed.

As time passed, more chaos beasts rushed towards them, initially colorless ones, then single-colored ones shortly after, followed by two-colored ones. Many fell into illusions midway, attacking their companions, while others that managed to reach the peach blossom forest had their internal organs shattered by the blue sound wave.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, a deafening beast roar heralded the arrival of dozens of four-colored chaos beasts, followed closely by five five-colored ones. The path was strewn with chaos beast corpses, blood flowing like rivers. Most of the beasts had no external wounds, having been directly killed by the sound waves.

Over a dozen flying four-colored chaos beasts swooped down from high altitude, heading directly for Wang Changsheng and his companions. Wang Ruyan's expression turned cold, and her flute music became more urgent. A blue sound wave swept out, tearing through the void and creating numerous cracks. The sound wave passed through the bodies of the flying four-colored chaos beasts, causing them to plummet from mid-air, crashing into the ground and forming several large craters. With a Golden Immortal cultivator who had comprehended minor laws and a mid-grade immortal artifact, the four-colored chaos beasts simply couldn't withstand the assault.

As the urgent flute music continued, blue sound waves swept out one after another, rapidly passing through the bodies of the chaos beasts. The four-colored chaos beasts couldn't withstand it and collapsed, their corpses piling up like mountains. The five five-colored chaos beasts fared better. They stepped over the corpses of their companions and lunged towards Wang Changsheng and his companions. Four were late True Immortal stage five-colored chaos beasts, and one was a True Immortal Grand Perfection stage five-colored chaos beast, which was also a flying type.

The four five-colored chaos beasts attacked from all directions. One, a beast-humanoid five-colored chaos beast, clenched its right fist and slammed it towards them. Wang Changsheng showed no fear, throwing a punch to meet it. When the two fists collided, the five-colored chaos beast flew out like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground with a broken arm.

The flying five-colored chaos beast swooped down from high altitude, heading directly for them. Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and countless blue water droplets emerged, floating in mid-air, stretching as far as the eye could see. He flicked his sleeve, and countless blue water droplets shot out with a piercing whoosh. The dense water droplets struck the chaos beasts, causing them to shriek as their bodies became riddled with holes, instantly obliterated. The flying five-colored chaos beast was no exception. This was the technique, *Water Overflows Golden Mountain*!

Hundreds of chaos beasts were killed, none able to approach within ten thousand feet of them. Wang Changsheng collected their corpses. Upon returning to Haoyang City, he would extract their core crystals and purify them with the Azure Lotus Creation Cauldron, which would yield a significant profit.

"Master, there's another small tribe about a million li away, with as many as seven five-colored chaos beasts," Wang Tunian said. Wang Changsheng nodded, and they flew off into the distance.

The small tribes couldn't stop them at all; vast numbers of chaos beasts were completely annihilated. Wang Changsheng, possessing a map provided by Heavenly Venerate Xuanling, did not rush ahead. He chose to target smaller tribes first, primarily to eliminate five-colored chaos beasts and use their corpses to refine Immortal-Slaying Arrows.

The chaos beast tribes within the Hulan Mountain Range were relatively far apart, ranging from a million li to several hundred million li. This made it convenient for them to eliminate chaos beasts in the outer regions.

Seven days later, deep within the Hulan Mountain Range, on a steep peak, waves of celestial music emanated from the summit, spreading across hundreds of thousands of li in every direction. At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of colorless chaos beast corpses lay piled up, and numerous colored chaos beasts rushed in from all directions at high speed. On the summit was a lotus platform constantly shimmering with green light, where Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan stood. They had eradicated several small tribes, killing over forty five-colored chaos beasts, including one mutated five-colored chaos beast, and had incidentally gathered some immortal herbs.

The lairs of chaos beast tribes contained cultivation resources, such as immortal herbs, immortal water, or first-tier ore veins. They planned to eliminate Golden Immortal stage chaos beasts, which was why they ventured deeper into the Hulan Mountain Range. According to the map provided by Heavenly Venerate Xuanling, this area was not yet the absolute core region of the chaos beast tribes, though it did indicate the presence of Golden Immortal stage chaos beasts. Wang Tunian had already used his spiritual eyes to scout the area, confirming a relatively large chaos beast tribe here, with one six-colored chaos beast.

Beast roars echoed one after another as numerous colored chaos beasts charged forward. Before they could even reach the foot of the mountain, blue sound waves swept over them, passing through their bodies. The chaos beasts collapsed successively, their corpses piling up like mountains.

"You treat our kin like dogs to be slaughtered; do you truly think we are mere decorations?" a cold male voice rang out. As the voice faded, the ground began to tremble slightly, and a beast-humanoid six-colored chaos beast strode towards them. It let out a resounding roar, causing the other chaos beasts to retreat and move away from the area.

The chaos beasts possessed considerable intelligence. This was not a mere skirmish; the tribal priests would not allow lower-tier chaos beasts to charge forward as cannon fodder. When Golden Immortal cultivators trespassed into their territory, it was only natural for the higher-tier beasts to intervene.

Over twenty five-colored chaos beasts rushed in from a distance, all at the early Golden Immortal stage, while the six-colored chaos beast was at the mid Golden Immortal stage. "Take them down," the six-colored chaos beast commanded, and the twenty-plus five-colored chaos beasts charged rapidly towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Ruyan put away her Immortal Suppressing Flute, as ordinary mid-grade immortal artifacts could not severely injure Golden Immortal stage chaos beasts. Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and countless blue ocean waters materialized out of thin air, rushing towards the approaching chaos beasts. The waters churned and surged, and massive, sky-high waves appeared, crashing down on the charging five-colored chaos beasts. With thunderous roars, the five-colored chaos beasts were struck by the colossal waves and sent flying back like sandbags, crashing heavily to the ground. They quickly stood up, their bodies marked with several small bleeding cuts, and once again charged towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.
