Chapter 132: Beast King's Pursuit and Killing

The Qingyun Sect disciples standing on the flying beasts were completely caught off guard! The flying beasts flapped wildly in panic! The one beneath Jiang Fan and Chen Siling accidentally collided with a nearby beast, causing them to lose control and tumble in mid-air. Jiang Fan promptly grabbed hold of the beast's neck, but Chen Siling wasn't as quick to react and was instantly thrown off. She was falling directly into the White-furred Jade Beast's gaping maw!

"Damn it!" Jiang Fan let out a low roar and leapt down. He decisively unleashed a partial Earth-tier technique he had learned from the Moke Stone Tablet!

"Star-Shattering Triple Strike! Po Jun!"

Potent spiritual energy condensed to its limit, transforming into a materialized energy bolt that burst forth from his body. It instantly grazed Chen Siling's arm and pierced into the White-furred Jade Beast's mouth.

*Thud—*

This was an Earth-tier finger technique; even a half-meter thick stone wall would be easily pierced through! Even as a Core Formation realm beast king, how could the White-furred Jade Beast's vulnerable throat withstand such an attack? The energy bolt shot through its throat, exiting from its neck with a spray of gushing blood. The White-furred Jade Beast let out a pained roar, and its massive body plummeted from mid-air to the ground, causing the earth to rumble.

Jiang Fan seized this opportunity to catch Chen Siling in his arms. Then, scaling the tall city wall, he ran along it towards the city. Some fleeing martial artists inadvertently looked back and saw this scene, their faces filled with horror. A mere fourth-level Foundation Establishment disciple had actually injured the beast king!

However, the White-furred Jade Beast was completely enraged. Its blood-red eyes fixed firmly on Jiang Fan, emanating an incredibly fierce gaze. With a leap, it pounced towards Jiang Fan, who was climbing the city wall.

Jiang Fan felt a massive shadow enveloping him from behind. The foul stench from the beast king's mouth assailed his face. The hairs on his entire body stood on end at that moment. An immense crisis suddenly descended upon him.

In this moment of crisis, he decisively drew his black sword and, without looking back, unleashed an incredibly swift and powerful sword strike!

"Dividing Light Sword!"

Without time to gather enough spiritual energy, he was forced to unleash the first stance of "Sword Heart Engraving." As the long sword was drawn, the air churned violently! An extremely fierce sword qi struck the White-furred Jade Beast behind him. It instantly transformed into an earth-shattering thunderous explosion!

Chen Siling, caught completely off guard, was instantly shaken so hard that her delicate body trembled and her ears buzzed. The White-furred Jade Beast had even less expected that this insignificant human actually possessed a second Earth-tier cultivation technique! The sword qi blew away large patches of fur from its head, revealing terrifying white bone. On the white bone, there were dense cracks! This single sword strike had actually injured its bones and tendons! At the same time, it also knocked the beast off the city wall.

Seizing this opportunity, Jiang Fan successfully climbed onto the city wall and then leapt into the city.

*Roar!!!*

Blood covered the White-furred Jade Beast's head, making its already ferocious face appear even more terrifying. Its eyes bloodshot, it leapt onto the city wall and fiercely scanned the crowd. It quickly locked onto Jiang Fan. With a fierce glint in its eyes, it immediately leapt into the city and pursued him! With a single step, it easily crushed a house. As it passed, rows of houses collapsed with booming sounds.

Jiang Fan turned his head to look and couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine! This was a Core Formation realm existence! How could he deal with it alone?

Gritting his teeth, Jiang Fan turned into an alley and then placed Chen Siling in a courtyard. He then jumped onto the rooftop to lure the beast out of the city. If it remained in the city, it would inevitably cause a series of bloody massacres, harming countless innocents. He also wouldn't be able to fully unleash his various techniques in crowded areas, to avoid harming bystanders. He could only lure it out of the city first.

The White-furred Jade Beast, having suffered consecutive heavy blows, now harbored extreme hatred for Jiang Fan. It chased him, running outwards. Seeing it catch up, Jiang Fan decisively unleashed "Lone Goose Soaring Shadow," and his speed increased by several times. Although he still wasn't as fast as the White-furred Jade Beast, he wouldn't be caught immediately!

He continued to leap quickly along the way. Unintentionally, he arrived near the Ding family residence. The heavily injured Ding Xuhui watched as the White-furred Jade Beast chased Jiang Fan and came towards them. His face pale, he shouted in panic, "Close the gates! Quickly close the gates! Don't let Jiang Fan lead the beast king here!"

The Ding family members immediately closed their main gate. The clan members huddled together as if facing a formidable enemy.

Jiang Fan's face darkened slightly. He continued to run outwards. Everywhere he passed, families big and small frantically closed their gates in panic, not daring to let Jiang Fan enter. They feared that he would bring ruin upon their families.

"A bunch of selfish fools!" Jiang Fan was extremely disappointed. A swarm of ants can kill an elephant! If all the major families united and gathered all their powerful martial artists, this White-furred Jade Beast would flee in terror! Their preoccupation with their own safety allowed the White-furred Jade Beast to rampage freely within the city!

Just at this moment, from a rather imposing family mansion, a white-haired old man suddenly leapt out. He drew a long bow and shot an arrow towards the White-furred Jade Beast, shouting loudly, "Vile beast! Do you think Yunyang City has no one left? How dare you be so presumptuous!"

*Clang—*

The White-furred Jade Beast's fur was like incredibly hard steel needles. The arrow was immediately deflected. It gave the old man a ferocious look, then continued pursuing Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan also looked at the old man with some surprise. He noticed the plaque on the mansion read "Lin Family."

"Young friend! There's a lake ten li to the east from here; this vile beast fears water!" The old man couldn't help Jiang Fan directly, so he could only offer a warning.

Jiang Fan's eyes lit up. One of the White-furred Jade Beast's weaknesses was its fear of water. However, his heart sank again upon hearing that it was ten li away. With his current movement technique, he couldn't possibly run that far. He felt quite regretful that he hadn't cultivated "Lone Goose Soaring Shadow" to the second layer. If he had the second layer of the movement technique, this demonic wolf wouldn't be able to catch him! Since things had come to this, he could only try his best!

Soon after, he rushed out of Yunyang City and sped towards the east. But after only running three li, the White-furred Jade Beast, bringing a strong foul stench, leapt and pounced from behind him! A massive shadow once again enveloped Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan's senses sharpened. He turned around and delivered a long-prepared sword strike! The third stance of "Sword Heart Engraving"!

"Heaven and Earth Starfall!"

In that instant! The air around Jiang Fan churned wildly as if boiling. The dust on the ground was stirred up high into the air! Nearby vegetation instantly turned into powder! Its destructive power was immense!

The White-furred Jade Beast, having been thwarted twice in a row, was well-prepared this time! It quickly retracted its neck, arched its back, and used its front limbs to shield its head. Its entire body of white fur stood on end, like a hedgehog!

However, it still underestimated the ultimate technique of "Sword Heart Engraving"! At this moment, all sound ceased. Even it was shaken by the terrifying thunderous explosion, losing all its hearing! Immediately after, a piercing pain shot through its back! The immense shockwave even sent its pavilion-sized body flying tens of yards away!

When the smoke and dust dispersed, it ignored the ringing in its ears and quickly turned its head to look behind, unable to help but gasp.
