Chapter 594: Crying Infant Beast

"Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s go eliminate that Crying Infant Beast as quickly as possible! Here are one hundred jin of Dark Moon Chillwater."

As Fairy Ziyue spoke, she took out a blue porcelain bottle and handed it to Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng pulled open the stopper, and a bone-chilling cold immediately surged out.

He tilted the bottle and poured some black liquid into his palm. An icy chill emanated from his palm.

His palm quickly froze, covered by a thin layer of ice.

Wang Changsheng nodded with satisfaction. He put away the spiritual water and said, "Without further ado, let's set off now!"

He and Fairy Ziyue flew outwards. Fairy Ziyue flew behind Wang Changsheng, a faint, almost imperceptible blue light glowing in her eyes. Her gaze swept over Wang Changsheng, and the smile on her face deepened.

Wang Changsheng briefly explained the situation to Wang Huashan and Wang Ruyan. Wang Ruyan did not object; always supportive of her husband, she would not decline anything beneficial to Wang Changsheng. Wang Huashan, who had been wanting to hunt a third-tier demonic beast, also agreed.

With four Core Formation cultivators hunting a mid-tier third-tier demonic beast, and the assistance of a formation, they could be said to have victory firmly in their grasp.

Fairy Ziyue raised her hand. A watermelon-sized metal sphere flew out, and amidst mechanical whirring, it transformed into a fifty-foot-tall golden giant eagle.

The golden giant eagle had a crimson beak and three legs.

This was a mid-tier third-tier puppet beast. Based on market prices, this puppet beast was worth close to a million spirit stones.

Wang Changsheng's gaze held a touch of envy. No wonder Fairy Ziyue dared to hunt demonic beasts with them. It turned out she possessed a mid-tier third-tier puppet beast. And this was only what Fairy Ziyue had revealed; perhaps she had other trump cards.

Fairy Ziyue landed on the golden giant eagle's back. The golden giant eagle let out a strange cry, flapped its wings, and flew towards the northwest.

Wang Changsheng and the other two exchanged glances and transformed into three streaks of light, following close behind.

A day later, the four of them appeared above a crescent-shaped island. Vegetation on the island was sparse, and there wasn't a single spiritual leyline.

They slowly descended onto the beach. A sea breeze swept in, causing their robes to flutter. The breeze carried a hint of saltiness.

"Fairy Ziyue, is the Crying Infant Beast here?" Wang Ruyan's gaze swept around the small island as she asked curiously.

"That's right. I'll first set up a formation, then lure it over. By the way, a word of caution: the Crying Infant Beast has fleshy wings, can fly, and is extremely tough; ordinary magic treasures cannot harm it. Don't let it escape."

Fairy Ziyue took out hundreds of azure formation flags, inserted them into the ground near the beach, buried several azure jade plates beneath the sand, and held an imposing azure formation flag in her hand.

She took out an enticing demonic incense stick, lit it, and placed it in the formation eye. She then threw a red carp several dozen feet long onto the beach, slashed its belly, and sprinkled some azure powder on it.

"Quick, hide! The Crying Infant Beast will appear soon."

Fairy Ziyue found an empty spot and used a spell to conceal herself.

Wang Changsheng and the other two also cast spells to hide and suppressed their spiritual energy fluctuations.

Time passed bit by bit. The sea was calm, and no demonic beasts appeared.

An hour later, there was still no sign of the Crying Infant Beast.

Wang Changsheng glanced at Fairy Ziyue but said nothing.

A strange roar echoed. More than a dozen black demonic birds swooped down from high altitude, their target being the red carp's corpse.

These demonic birds were only second-tier and not of high rank.

They were extremely fast and quickly landed on the beach, tearing at the red carp's corpse.

Rumble!

The calm sea suddenly churned violently, and a massive creature suddenly emerged from the water.

This demonic beast resembled a giant rhinoceros in appearance, but its head was somewhat similar to a rat's. It had a pair of fleshy wings on its back, its body covered in red scales, and three eyes.

It was indeed the Crying Infant Beast, but only a low-tier third-tier one.

The sea churned violently again, as an even larger Crying Infant Beast emerged from the water—a mid-tier third-tier one.

Both Crying Infant Beasts let out cries like infants, and from their third eyes, thick crimson flames shot out. The black demonic birds that touched the crimson flames were instantly incinerated to ash.

The black demonic birds frantically flapped their wings, soaring towards the sky. However, before they could get high, a large swath of crimson flames swept over, landing on them.

Several agonized screams rang out, and not even a single feather of the black demonic birds remained.

Two infant-like cries rang out as the two Crying Infant Beasts spread their wings, flapped them gently, and took flight, flying towards the beach.

They quickly reached the carp. Before they could feed, a large expanse of azure mist suddenly erupted from the surrounding ground.

The two Crying Infant Beasts sensed something was wrong and spewed flames, attacking the formation.

"Quick, unleash your strongest attacks and eliminate them! A low-tier third-tier formation cannot trap them for long. The main formation flag was repaired before, so the formation's defensive power is not as strong as before."

Fairy Ziyue exclaimed loudly. The main formation flag in her hand glowed intensely and spewed out a large amount of azure mist.

Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, and Wang Huashan exchanged glances and successively unleashed their magic treasures to attack the Crying Infant Beasts.

Wang Changsheng deployed the Cold Cloud Bottle and the Nine-Bends Divine Sand. The Cold Cloud Bottle spewed out billowing white cold air, while the Nine-Bends Divine Sand transformed into a massive yellow sand dragon, lunging at the two Crying Infant Beasts.

Wang Ruyan held her Dark Moon Pipa. Her slender jade fingers rapidly swept across the pipa strings. A low pipa melody resonated, and dozens of massive azure wind blades flew out, striking the two Crying Infant Beasts.

Wang Huashan only had a flying knife magic treasure on him, which he slashed towards the Crying Infant Beasts.

Continuous rumbling sounds echoed, faintly mixed with the cries of infants.

Fairy Ziyue saw Wang Changsheng unleash his magic treasures to attack the Crying Infant Beasts. A hint of disappointment flashed in her beautiful eyes, but quickly returned to normal.

The Crying Infant Beasts were fire-attribute demonic beasts. The Cold Cloud Bottle was completely ineffective against them. The magic treasures struck their bodies, leaving no marks whatsoever. They charged wildly within the formation, releasing flames to attack it, with continuous explosions and rolling flames.

A short while later, with a deafening roar, a large expanse of crimson flames erupted from within the azure mist. Heat waves rolled out, the azure mist dispersed, and several fine cracks appeared on the surface of the formation plate.

"Oh no, they've broken through the formation! Quick, use your strongest attacks to eliminate them!"

Fairy Ziyue's beautiful face changed dramatically as she cried out. She formed a hand seal, and the golden giant eagle spewed a thick golden light beam, striking the smaller Crying Infant Beast.

The Crying Infant Beast was already the primary target of Wang Changsheng and the two others, and its body already bore some injuries. The golden light beam struck one of these wounds, enlarging it. It let out a strange roar, its eyes turning crimson, and flapped its wings, lunging towards Fairy Ziyue.

Fairy Ziyue hastily controlled the golden giant eagle to block the Crying Infant Beast.

The mid-tier third-tier Crying Infant Beast opened its cavernous mouth, revealing a row of snow-white fangs, and pounced towards Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng snorted coldly. He took out the Ruyi Profound Jade Rod, infused it with spiritual power, and the Ruyi Profound Jade Rod glowed intensely, rapidly growing longer and thicker. With an overwhelming force, it smashed towards the Crying Infant Beast.
